ITunes Store No Longer Recognizes AOL IDs

Here we go again. The iTunes store once again will not recognize valid AOL IDs. I was just on AOL, and I logged in smoothly. Can't log in smoothly at the iTunes store, however -- it tells me that the ID I just used on AOL isn't valid!
Unbelievable. Why can't they get this right? Apple and iTunes has to be the most frustrating set of operating systems and websites in the world today. They can't get the most simple things to work right. And to think I was considering buying an Apple PC to replace my aging HP PC. Not anymore! Anyone know of music download sites that they like? I'm switching away from iTunes given all the failures they've had and their inability to manage their site properly.

  • I recently upgraded iTunes to 11.1.4.62 and then itunes would no longer recognize my iphone 4s and iPod

    I recently upgraded iTunes to 11.1.4.62 and then itunes would no longer recognize my iphone 4s and iPod although I can see the iphone but NOT the iPod on the computer (windows 8.1 Pro).  I checked everything , cable, services, stop and start and automatice, etc.and went through all the steps on the apple support site, to include removing all apple software in the designated order and reinstalling it.  iTunes still doesn't see the iphone.
    The Apple iPhone shows up only under protable Devices in the Device Manager window and has a Yellow ! warning triangle, and there is no Apple USB controller in the devices menu.under Universal Serial Bus Controllers. When I look under the properties of the Apple iphone, it says in Device Status, to reinstall the drivers for this device (Code 18).
    When I do this,  I get the following: "Windows found driver softweare for you device but encountered an error when attempting to install it" Apple Mobile Device Driver One of the installers for th this device cannot perform the installation at this time. I tried both suggested locations on the C: drive.
    Also I can't seem to find out how to install the Apple USB Contoller or is that related to the problem above?
    The iphone and my ipod work fine with this version of itunes on Windows 7 on my laptop.  is it possible that I am missing a critical update from Microsoft on the driver and USB controller?  I have been leery of installing them since my computer had problems with some updates in January.
    I 've tried every thing listed in this forum, I think, and the Apple support page on this subject.  Please help!

    Version 11.1.5.5 of iTunes was just released today. If you update to that, does that help with the recognition troubles?

  • Older music/TV shows & videos purchased from iTunes store no longer work on PC (iTunes only)

    Hi,
    I am having trouble with iTunes on my Win PC and would like some help.  It clearly appears to be a software or configuration issue.  Essentially all my older music videos and TV shows all purchase from the iTunes store (anything older than 2012) simply will not play with iTunes (but will play with all other Win apps).  Here are the details:
    1) Running new PC with Win 7 ultimate
    2) All media files in one location (iTunes folder) all new tunes and videos are stored there
    3) I am running iTunes v10
    4) Newly purchased music videos work - older ones (from 2011-2006) no longer play.  Same with newly purchased TV shows but not older ones.
    5) When file is selected in iTunes it simply does not play them (no crash, no sound, nothing) - itunes is still active and you can select other music, etc.
    6) Videos play in Win player and any other windows app applied to them (sourced directly from iTunes to Explorer)
    7) Problem did not exist in much earlier version of iTunes (or I would not have purchased them, duh)
    8) Problem existed in last few versions of iTunes
    9) Problem existing on last PC as well as this new one
    9) ALL videos STILL work fine on my ipad and ipods - nothing wrong with those files themselves
    10) I have searched online and tried:  control panel selections with Quicktime (3D video setting), uninstalling itunes several times, uninstalling quicktime, etc.
    11) All tests pass with iTunes diagnostic
    Please help if you can!  Thanks.
    best, AHC99

    By the way... ALL music files back to 2004 still play fine on iTunes on the PC...

  • ITunes Store no longer remembering apps/music already downloaded

    Hi,
    i've got the latest iTunes, and it occurs to me a phenomenon that itunes store previously remembers and indicate the status of apps/music already purchased.
    to make myself clearer, for example i have already downloaded Whatsapp a long time ago, but now if i go to the App Store, it used to display as "purchased" or "downloaded" just beside the app icon.
    Now it no longer does, applied to hundreds of apps and  hundreds of songs.
    Is it a bug ?

  • ITunes store does not recognize my password

    Do I need a different password for iTunes Store or should it recognize my apple ID passwords?

    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 ...

  • Why does the iTunes store no longer sell any Pokémon anime TV programs or movies at all?

    All I saw was that there were two Pokémon anime movies available at the iTunes store:
    Pokémon: The First Movie
    Pokémon: The Movie 3
    But sadly, now they're gone, and then there is currently no longer any Pokémon anime TV programs or movies available at the iTunes Store at all. But just want to know all about the reason there isn't.

    Apple can only sell what they are granted licenses to sell - if the content providers haven't granted them, or have decided to remove their items from the store (which the occasionally do), then Apple can't sell them. You can try requesting that items be added to the store, but you might be better off contacting the providers (film studio, tv company) and asking them : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

  • ITunes store does not recognize iTunes on my computer

    I installed iTunes on my conmputer - even reinstalled it by following online Apple instructions to the letter regarding uninstalling ALL Apple software, etc. - whenever I visit the iTunes store and make a selection to purchase, the page I get taken to always reads something like "in order to download your selection, you must have iTunes installed on your computer." I always get this without fail... I got it before I reinstalled and after. The site does not recognize my iTunes software that I have installed. I have consulted with various Apple support people and I get the runaround all the time and never a direct answer... most of the time, they don't even respond.

    Ok thanks for the help, i managed to do all that, included another port (443) which was mentioned in another article, to no avail. Same problem.
    I did all sorts of tests and i am firmly convinced it's got something to do with the router, but your solution didn't work.
    The router is the same i used before.
    I also use a range extender, same as i used before (linksys RE1000).
    The problem had occurred before, but it went away on its own. Now it has been happening for a week with no relief.
    It started when i bought  a new computer. I de-linked the ATV library and re-linked to the new machine. I sold the old machine, so i still have only one.
    Well, the syncing is super slow over my wireless network. So i thought i'd put the ATV linked by ethernet cable diretly to the router. Instead of making it sync faster, it simply froze (amber light steadily on).
    I thought i'd lost the hardware.
    I then unplugged the ethernet cable and went back to the old set up. Got iTunes on the computer to see the ATV andgot it to sync, which took forever (like 3 days straight).
    After this painful sync, i could not connect to apple store from the ATV, and hence can't play anything because it is there but 'not authorized'.
    I then factory-reset the ATV, and had to do the syncing all over again: no result.
    Tried all the other solutions (deauthorize, reauthorise, reboot, reset, change pwd, etc, nothing works).
    Tried you rport forwarding, didnt work. Maybe the range extender makes it not work?
    I also use dynamic IPs, so could that be a problem?
    I am at my wits' end and i know only one thing: APPLE *****. I will NEVER AGAIN buy anything from this company. Anyone knows if there is any other hardware that would work like an apple TV? I have a lot of unwatched, expensive shows...

  • Reset my AppleID password, but the iTunes Store doesn't recognize it.

    I reset my AppleID password, and it works fine to purchase apps directly from my iPhone. iTunes, however, will not let me log into the iTunes Store using the password; the dialog box to enter your username / password just keeps coming up.
    I've tried quitting and relaunching iTunes, and restarting the computer (MacBook Pro 2.3GHz Intel Core i7, OSX 10.9.3).
    Any ideas how to get iTunes to recognize my AppleID password?

    Hello Brian,
    Based on your post, it seems you cannot connect to the iTunes Store with your Apple ID. I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice concerning iTunes Store issues:

  • Itunes will no longer recognize my phone

    I just bought the iPhone 5c. When I plugged it in to my old itunes it synced all of my old music. I wanted to start fresh so i made an icloud account and deleted all of those songs. I then signed on with my new account. After this, itunes will no longer display my phone as a device. I tried everything from reinstalling itunes to checking the Apple Mobile Device services and still nothing. Can someone please tell me what I did wrong so I can get some music?!

    1-reinstall itunes(to last version)
    2-reset all setting from settings(on iPhone)
    3-change port of usb to your Computer

  • Can't burn cds to library, can't load itunes store, can't recognize ipod

    I downloaded the new version of itunes and now it doesn't work very well....
    1. I could not burn the a brand new cd into my library, the process was stuck "connecting to gracenote"
    2. My itunes store will not load
    3. my ipod is not always recognized by the computer
    How do I fix these problems?  I tried to reinstall itunes, but that didn't seem to work.

    I'm assuming you have already resolved the issue, but if you have not, I would recommend that you uninstall iTunes completely and remove anything related to Apple on your computer including Quicktime. See this post for what you need to remove: http://mismike.blogspot.com/2008/03/itunes-wont-close-on-windows-xp-sp2.html. Good luck.

  • Does iTunes Store no longer accept PayPal as a method of payment in the U.S. (California)?

    I've tried logging in through the apple store app, on a desktop and through the iTunes store in my phone, NONE of them are giving me an option to change my method of payment to PayPal...?  Does anyone know if they stopped accepting PayPal as a method of payment?  =(

    Hi SaucyMexican,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. 
    It looks like PayPal is still an accepted form of payment for the Apple Store:
    Payment methods you can use in the iTunes Store, Mac App Store, App Store, and iBooks Store - Apple Support
    If you are still having difficulties you can take a look at this article for assistance.
    Change or remove your payment information from your iTunes Store account (Apple ID) - Apple Support
