ITunes Store does not connect (Safari and MSN don't work either)

Hi when i try to connect to the iTunes store through iTunes it says there was a connection error and it times out. Also MSN and Safari do not work; MSN says there is not a connection and Safari just doesnt load any pages. However programs such as Adium and Firefox work fine. Now i assummed it would be a problem with my router, but the weird thing is, iTunes and MSN work fine on the PC i have. Also the programs worked fine on my Macbook whilst i was at uni last week so i am not sure what the problem is. Any help is greatly appreciated. Cheers.

I've had the same problem for a few months now. I keep getting an error message that the network connection has been reset. However, I'm still connected to the internet on my iBook, it's getting really frustrating.

  • ITunes Store does not show author and "album artwork" of my podcast

    Although all information is available - the itunes store does not mention the author and "album artwork" of my podcast - if podcast is downloaded, album artwork is shown...
    How can I add the informatin (especially that author is not "unknown" anymore)
    http://itunes.apple.com/de/podcast/nie-mehr-schuchtern-der-podcast/id404201576?i =88951302

    For reference, you feed is at http://kontaktvoll.de/tinc?key=r5FOIixD
    This is not a valid podcast feed for iTunes. It's missing the 'itunes declaration' in the second line. The top two lines of your feed should read as follows:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <rss xmlns:itunes="http://www.itunes.com/dtds/podcast-1.0.dtd" version="2.0">
    Without that, iTunes cannot read the 'itunes' tags which are necessary to carry some of the information, and which in any case are missing from your feed. The author name is carried in the 'itunes:author' tag and the image in the 'itunes:image' tag.
    This page contains a basic sample feed so you can see what it should look like and how these tags are formed:
    http://www.wilmut.org.uk/pc
    If you are hand-writing this feed it's a good idea to put returns in after each closing tag, as in the sample. At the moment most of your feed is on one line and this makes it very difficult to read when looking for problems, particularly as you add more episodes.

  • I've downloaded itunes on my computer, but the iTunes store does not show up and HTML and the links do not work?

    I've successfully downloaded iTunes to my PC.  Every function appears to work, however when accessing iTunes store it does not come up in HTML format and when I click a link it times out.

    Hi Augstiner57, I have the same problem.  Did you figure it out?  Mine seems to have happened after I updated Apple TV. Now it doesn't recognize my Home Sharing even though on my MacBook is it turned on.
    I am running an old OS  though (Leopard) so  I am wondering if I need to upgrade.

  • ITunes store does not connect

    When I try to log into iTunes, I keep getting this error message: "We could not complete your iTunes store request.  The network connect was lost.  There was an error in the iTunes store.  Please try again later." 
    I've tried EVERYTHING from the help pages that Apple support has sent me.  I've went into the terminal, reset my keychain, turned my firewall off, reduced restrictions on the firewall, reset my network. The thing is other computers and iPads and iPhones work just fine on the same network (with different accounts).  I can navigate around iTunes, listen to samples, etc.   
    I have iTunes 10.5.3 with Mac OS X 10.6.8.  Is there a way to figure out the cause of what happened and why?  I also have Netbarrier 10.5.6 and Virusbarrier 10.5.10.

    Oh let's add one more now to the above post:

  • HT3204 the itunes store does not connect, then after 10 mins asks for my ID, waits and waits some more, then nothing.  Close it down and reboot, then it finally comes up with my ID and the amount I still have left in my account to spend.  Can't buy song e

    After trying to purchase a song I get a connectivty issue even after I am connected and can see my ID and how much money I have left to spend in my account.  I get the loging security screen and verified that, now it is that.  This has been going on for weeks and I have tried all of your suggestions on your website even doing all the diagnostics saying everything is fine.  I am frustrated and want to be able to use ITunes again. 
    Can anyone help with any usuable suggestions other than what I have already tried?

    Thanks King_Penguin for taking time to read and reply. 
    I just purchased this movie on Thursday, May 15, so just a few days ago.  I have never had any trouble whatsoever since I have been in Vietnam.  I have downloaded several movies and even music and they have all synced to my respected Apple products except for this purchase. 
    Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean by studios and different versions.  Could you please explain? 
    I checked my purchased list in my purchase history under my account and there are no hidden items. 

  • I cannot access the App Store,  iTunes on the iPhone. I get a generic message "Cannot Connect to iTunes Store", etc.  Both Safari and my e-mail work fine, as well as all of my other internet-using apps.

    Kindly repy for the above from Apple Experts......
    Thanking you in advance...

    are you signed in to those stores? do you have them restricted in settings, restrictions?

  • Network connection was reset store does not connect

    there was a change of dns server for my iTunes store and not go over the followingmessage: network connection was reset store does not connect, what can I do to fix it my pc is an xp professional.

    Do you have Norton AntiVirus? It could be that Norton is blocking iTunes from working because it considers iTunes a virus. If you think this is the problem, only uninstall Norton if you have your account information or if you are willing to buy a different AntiVirus program.

  • ITunes Store does not fully appear on screen

    The iTunes store does not fully "load" on screen. It takes 2-3 minutes for just a few images to appear and then it stops. Everything else about iTunes is functioning completley well as are all of my other internet connections/processes. This problem has existed for around one month and we have upgraded to iTunes 9. Please help !

    Perhaps try the iTunes Store loads partially or returns "Error 306" or "Error 10054" section in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document:

  • Itunes Store does not show lastest podcast but it downloaded

    So i am pretty much and stuck on this issue. I have seen a couple of other post but no answers. Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction.
    The issue is the Itunes store does not show the last episode by it can still be downloaded and played.
    The latest episode the Itunes store shows is 10/17/10 however it has been updated weekly.
    Link to Itunes:

    I have used a couple of feed validaters and nothing seems wrong to me. Can anyone find an issue i have not looked at? Should i just try to contact Apple Support?
    Thanks,
    Bob

    The iTunes Store caches the feed and checks periodically to see if it's been updated, so there is a delay before new episodes appear: however it's usually around 2 days, not almost a month. When subscribing the iTunes application reads the feed directly, so there is no delay.
    Something is preventing the Store from updating the feed. This can happen if there is some oddity in the feed which throws the Store but not the application - usually a strange character of some sort. I looked for something like that in the first episode not to appear in the Store, but there is nothing odd there: you've used dots in the filename of your mp3 file and this isn't a good idea, but in fact doesn't seem to be causing a problem since some earlier episodes do the same thing. Ideally you shouldn't use dots in a URL.
    The filename for the episode of 28 November includes the code %3A - this is the code for a colon - you definitely shouldn't have a colon in a filename. However since this episode comes later than several others which haven't appeared it may not be fatal - but it's not a good idea.
    The other oddity is that you have two 'title' tags in the top section of your feed, both empty. You did have a title once, as it shows in the Store, but you've removed it at some point so that the feed is not titled. I don't know whether this is sufficient to prevent the Store from updating, but you should definitely replace the title - I see you are using Podcast Maker, so you need to enter the title there and republish - and see whether that helps.

  • ITunes store does not accept my Password anymore.

    ITunes store does not accept my Password anymore.

    I'm still having the same problem ... 6 months after your original post!  I've just had to reset my pw 2 days in a row, and I've been through so many resets over the past 6 months that I'm running out of ideas for passwords that I'll have a reasonable chance of remembering.  But I also always make a careful note of my important passwords, and after the 1st "password error" message, I check my list and enter the password very slowly and carefully.  So, I think I'm pretty safe in claiming that neither entering the wrong password nor making a typo is the problem!
    Oddly, though, I could usually cancel the password-reset process, then go right to the the iTunes Store, where my password would work fine, allowing me to open and view all my account details.
    Several months ago, I spent about 45 minutes on the phone with Tech Support trying to get this fixed. He was great and we thought he'd found the problem with my account.  (When I originally set up my iTunes account 6 years ago, I used a different email address than I used when I set up my new Mac last year, and that seemed to be causing some sort of conflict within my account.  Hard to imagine someone might change email addresses sometime over a 6-year period, right?  But apparently, the software designers didn't cover that possibility with one of their recent updates of the master system for customers' accounts -- that's the Tech Rep's surmise, not mine.)
    Everything seemed to work fine for a few weeks, but then the problem started occurring again ... over and over and over ...

  • Itunes store does not show on ipad when i launch app its pages are blank

    itunes store does not show on ipad when i launch app its pages are blank

    This indicates there might be an issue with the time configuration on the device.
    Go to Settings > General > Date and time. See if Set automatically is switched to on. If so, switch to off and ensure you set date, time and time zone manually and correctly.
    Power off the device (hold sleep button for four seconds, then slide to power off), then power back on.
    If issue persists, switch Set automatically back to on, and if not resolved then restore the device.
