ITunes Store not available message

Since the latest update I have not been able to log into the iTunes store.  I get the message that the iTunes store is not available.  Nothing I have done including uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes has helped. 
Any suggestions?

I'm having the same problem.  One TV series refuses to stream on the Apple TV, stating the iTunes store is unavailable.  All other purchased content streams fine on the Apple TV.
I can download the TV series in iTunes on the computer, then stream from the computer to the TV.  That works, but not when streaming directly over the Internet without a computer.
I have engaged Apple Support, but so far they have been pretty useless in assisting me.  I have sent them screenshots, hand-held videos of the problem, descriptions.   This is insanely frustrating and very disappointing.

  • Only in my Wish List = itunes store not available?

    Hi,
    With my ATV2 ......... Recently  when I click on  a film in my  "Wish List" I am getting "itunes store not available ,try again later"............however, if I select the  film from  film list or search I can watch it  - so the itunes store  IS available!!  This never used to be a problem and I could always watch trailers by clicking on the film in my Wish List.
    It is nice to determine which movies to watch by  checking out the trailer directly from  my  Wish List as I have a LOT of films in there ready to go.
    Anyone got any suggestion - I would be most greatful .
    Regards

  • Itunes store not available to download

    i rented a movie (so the store IS available if you want to spend MONEY!), but everytime i try to download the movie, i get a message that says "itunes store not available, try later"... if i had known that, i would have just driven to the **** store and rented the movie there!! i tried restarting, tried newest version of itunes... nothing. i also see some security issues that apply to windows, i checked my internet connections, security, it's all fine... i have no problems with anything else... and i was able to download stuff yesterday!

    I have been having the exact same problem!! I purchased 3 songs a couple of weeks ago, and 2 downloaded, and the third will not. Everytime I try checking for available purchases it gives me "the iTunes store is not available. Please try again later." A couple of days ago I tried downloading a free song, which worked, so I thought maybe it would work and I rented a movie. Well, the movie won't download and I got the same message. And, of course, I have been charged for both the song and movie that I purchased but cannot access for anything. I even talked on the phone with an Apple representative for an hour and achieved nothing. I emailed Apple, was given instructions, which I completed, wrote them back (because this is what the email said to do if the instructions didn't work) and got the same set of instructions as a reply!! So frustrating. Fix this or give us our money back!!!

  • Apple itunes store not available

    When I try to order a movie, it keeps saying apple itunes store not available. I can watch netflix, itunes radio works, geinus does not work, just can not order movies. I can preview them just can't order movies. It get stuck when I try to sign in to itunes. The screen get stuck and I have to unplug and plug back in to clear screen.  HELP

    Found that my ATT Uverse router's Firewall was set up to block Applications, Pinholes and DMZ Had been activated. Once I added the Apple TV to the list, for all programs, it started working. In all probability AT&T and/or Apple software updates probably created the issue.

  • Message that iTunes store not available occurs with 1 program

    The other night I bought an entire season of a show.  I got a chance to see 3 episodes and then went to bed.  The next day when I click on the program, I am constantly getting that the iTunes store is not avaiable.  I unplug the power code and the same message. Other iTunes programs that I have purchase still work as well as Netflix.  I can download the program on iTunes and iPhone but not on Apple TV. 
    Suggestions?

    Interesting!  I have been practically fighting with the guy assigned to my Apple support ticket.  The last part of that discussion is that he's trying to school me on how you can't actually download shows to the AppleTV.  This is all a distraction on their part.
    So, I dunno if they finally did something on their end or if it's because I tried the "trick" to add it to favorites.  But I can now access the shows that were showing that error.  I have un-favorited the show and it still works.
    So, still could be worth filing a support ticket in the event that something they did on their end is what fixed it.
    Good luck!

  • Apple TV: itunes store not available

    I'm living in jena, Germany. Where can I find any support message (for example "maintanance until..." if the store is not working?
    How can I get this kind of information in advance?

    Oh no, the problem is back! On Apple TV when I click on "TF1 JT de 20h" in favorites just now, I get
    If I access the same podcast from the Search menu, then I get
    However, the podcast is definitely available on the iTunes Store, because I just downloaded it in iTunes:
    Any brilliant suggestions as to how I may remedy this?
    Many thanks in advance.

  • ITunes store not available on my macbook

  • Content available in iTunes Store NOT available via AppleTV?

    I'm sure this has been answered a thousand times over, but it's perplexing me and I found I can get answers quickly from the folks here.
    Why is it that movies and TV shows that show up as available for rental or purchase in the iTunes Store, don't show up the same natively in the AppleTV interface?
    For example, I missed last night's episode of the show "Breaking Bad." I can find it and download it just fine from the iTunes Store in iTunes, but when I search for that same show via the on-screen search on the AppleTV I yield no results. It doesn't find the show at all or even any reference to the network AMC. I see another AMC show "Mad Men" in iTunes but again not in the search function on the AppleTV. I even checked on my iPhone and indeed BOTH shows are available to download to my iPhone!
    Do these not connect to the same database of shows? Why can I download something from my computer and stream it via Airplay but not just rent the content straight from the AppleTV? Is this a limitation of iOS or does it solely have to do with streaming vs. downloading?
    Any insight is appreciated. Thanks!

    I see. No internal hard drive so, streaming only.
    Any idea if it's up to the networks to decide if content is purchase only?
    Well, that's a real bummer. Certainly limits some of the usefulness of the ATV and it's connection to the iTunes Store if has to be tethered to a PC to access all the available content.
    Thanks for the reply!

  • Itunes store not available after connecting iPod to iMac

    I have just been given an old ipod touch that was working OK. I reset the settings and content and when it had finished it came up with a graphic that I assume means I should connect it to itunes. I connected it to my imac and started itunes, which then displayed the message " We could not complete your itunes store request. The host is down." When I disconnect the ipod and re-start itunes I now get the same message without the ipod connected, when I try to contact the itunes store. Re-starting OSX (Lion) makes no difference. I am able to connect to the itunes store on another computer (I have not tried connecting the ipod to the second computer - I don't want to break that one too!)
    I've tried updating itunes but I get told that I can't connect to the update server either.
    Any suggestions please?

    I've had a bit more contact with the iTunes store support people by email and they have been equally unhelpful. Why do Apple employ people to guide me to support articles when the web site already does that perfectly well? They just ignore most of what I say and keep pointing me to the stuff I've already read.
    Ive also realised that the 'phone number they've given me to call is a premium number. This is where I draw the line I'm afraid. I refuse to pay Apple to tell me how I can connect to their store. I suppose I should be grateful Apple still allow me to buy music elsewhere.

  • ITunes store not available in Morocco

    Hi guys,
    I don't know why iTunes store is not available in my country (Morocco) although it is available in all the rest of the world. We don't have any solution to buy apps and music in Morocco.
    Does anybody have an answer ?

    You can't do anything if iTunes is not yet available for your country. Here's a list of country availability for teh itunes store:

  • ITunes store not available in my country

    Hello Apple mate! I found a big problem on my iPad's App Store.
    Last month I found that the App Store appeared a message "App Store is currently unavailable in Malaysian store", I thought that it can be back very soon.
    But after a month the same problem come out...
    What is apple planning to Malaysian users?? My friends also met this problem. Or can anyone help me to solve this issue?
    Thank you.

    Unless you can show some form of residency you cannot buy from another country's store. The question on cross store purchasing is asked frequently so I'll just quote the most complete answer (courtesy of Dave Sawyer) from the many given:
    In order to buy from any given country's iTunes Music Store, you must have either:
    a) a credit card with a billing address in that country, or
    b) a mailing address in that country and a gift certificate or a prepaid card that was bought in that country.
    If you cannot fulfill one of these two sets of conditions, you will not be able to purchase from any given country's iTMS.
    .......this is due to restrictions placed on Apple by the record companies and other rights holders (who are often completely different from country to country and so all require their own individual negotiations and contracts), not by Apple's choice. And this also applies to all the legal download stores that carry major-label content, not just the iTMS.
