ITunes store search won't work

Ever since I moved to college my itunes store hasn't loaded right. The itunes homepage will load but the search never works. The streaming bar just constantly says "Accessing iTunes Store..." while the bar swirls. Nothing ever changes though, it will just do that then forever. I made sure that my firewall was not blocking the store and went through all the steps to do it and it still isn't working. I can click on certain things and they load but the search never works.

Saw this on another post.
Applecare Senior Advisor Txx Bxxx (I have his contact info in an email he just sent) just confirmed with me that the problem people are having with the App Store not loading is an apple issue with there servers, ITS NOT YOUR IPAD so don't go restoring it!   It's not happening to everyone however but they are looking into it, its really hit or miss.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
This works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

  • ITunes 11 store search won't work

    Absolutely nothing happens when I enter a search term and click on the magnifying class. I get no indication that iTunes has even noticed my request. I click and -- nothing. This just started happening.What's wrong? It was working fine just a while ago.

  • ITunes Match disappears from iTunes store and won't work

    Hi there,
    I'm having 2 problems, and hoping *someone* can help, because Apple sure can't.
    I just again purchased iTunes Match, even though last year it never worked properly (it would load 20,000 songs, but then each time I backed up my phone, they would all disappear and I would have to spend days and day to re-load them every time).
    I have a MacBook Pro, iPhone 5 and the newest iPad. When I click on music on my iPhone or iPad, only 36 artists show up when there should be thousands.
    I just logged in to iTunes on my computer, with my phone connected, with the music drive connected, with iTunes Match turned on, on the phone, and iTunes Match does not show up anywhere. In fact, when I click on the store (how else are you supposed to get to it anyway?? It surely isn't intuitively placed), iTunes Match shows up for ONE SECOND in the menu on the righthand side and then it DISAPPPEARS. I have re-started, searched the forum, searched the web, and called the Apple store (which as usual was no help at all).
    I checked that it is turned on, on my phone, and went through all the iTunes preferences and there is nothing there. PLEASE please help. I just paid for this darn thing again for another year, but it will not work properly, and now I can't even access it. (And I noted one post elsewhere that said to click on the iTunes store and enable it. That is not an option for me. When I click on the store... ok, I already explained this above).
    Would appreciate any help possible. Thanks.
    Sincerely,
    CP

  • ITunes store search won't show songs

    When searching for a song in the itunes store albums are displayed but not songs. iMac has all latest software and updates.

    For what it's worth, I have the same problem on the iPad after installing ios7.  This problem was solved by changing Safari preferences (Block Cookies) to From third party advertisers.  Similarly I got iTunes to work properly on my iMac by also changing Safari preferences, Privacy, Block Cookies: to From third party advertisers.  Don't understand the connection between Safari and iTunes but it solves the problem on both devices.  I wonder what else is impacted by the Safari Privacy settings.

  • Help!!! ISO5 installed and now my itunes store/sync won't work

    Hi, a few days ago i installed the iso5 update, eversince then i have not been able to access the itunes store. When i plug my ipod in it says 'backing up', it regognised my ipod but so does computer to open files which usually doesn't happen. When i plug my ipod out it still says 'backing up' and itunes is impossible to use, my ipod still works fine. I have checked that i have the most up to date itunes 10.5. I have unintalled and reinstalled itunes 3 times. The second time last night it worked and I synced my ipod, then today by ipod started 'backing up' and now I can't do anything. Can anyone help, is there anyway just to revert back to IOS4, everything worked fine and I was happy, i dont need or want the up date, i found the apple page with the last IOS software but it says the download is avalible on itunes which i can access.
    Has anyone had the same problems? and if so how have you solved them?
    Thanks

    I updated iTunes to v10.5 and then plugged my iPOD Touch 4 (32GB), which invited me to update from iOS4 to iOS5. The download trundled on for about an hour (as they do!), but during the download, or installation (I can't remember) which a flag appeared with 'Rescuing' or a similar phrase, and carried on downloadin. The download appeared to finish OK and then the sync cycle began. All my Apps, contacts etc synced OK, but the iTunes syc stopped after only a small fraction of my tunes were synced. A message came up 'sync canceled'. I have tried changing from 'sync' all tunes in Library to selected Playlists, but no joy. All the songs appear to be on the iPOD, but only those in bold play. The rest are in pale script and don't play. I was going to delete all my tunes from the iPOD and readd fron my iTunes library from scratch, but I don't know how to do that. Perhaps upgrading both iTunes & iPOD consecutively was pushing it!
    I would be very grateful if anyone can help. Thanks

    Are you sure it was error 0604 since I never heard of that error, it does not appear in the list of errors in the following and a search of Apple's support site gets no hits.  However, error 1604 is list and users have reported that error number.  If 1604 is the error number the following tell yu wnat to do when you click on that error number:

    Windows 8 or Windows RT? iTunes won't run on Windows RT. It should run on Windows 8. Use the appropriate installer from an account with administrator privileges.
    Windows System Requirements
    PC with a 1GHz Intel or AMD processor and 512MB of RAM
    Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later, 32-bit editions of Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    64-bit editions of Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8 require the iTunes 64-bit installer
    400MB of available disk space
    Broadband Internet connection to use the iTunes Store

  • The App Store search has stopped working since I updated to 8.2 on iPad

    Hi
    since I updated my software to 8.2 on my iPad the App Store search has stopped working but other features work on the App Store only the search option is not responding and says " the App Store is temporary unavailable please try again later "
    I have turned my iPad off and on couple of times but with the same result each time.
    the 8.2 update is for the new Apple watch and health app.
    can any one help?

    Based on the numerous posts regarding iTunes and the App Store, there appears to be an issue at Apple's end. Although Apple has not provided any indication on the cloud status page.
    Do not change your settings.

  • HT203167 lost some music and cannot find it on my computer.  tried to repurchase from itunes store and won't let me stating that it was previously purchased, yet doesn't give an option to redownload. help anyone?

    lost some music and cannot find it on my computer.  tried to repurchase from itunes store and won't let me stating that it was previously purchased, yet doesn't give an option to redownload. help anyone?

    AlexCarey, I've been having issues purchasing recently and place a number of calls to the support team. On Oct. 5th, and on my own decision, I went into my itunes profile and re-entered my credit card expiration date and security code. (Notice, it is not displayed for safety measures.) Today, I received an email from Apple support verifying if I made changes made to my account. For the heck of it, I logged back into itunes; click "Buy". It's working again after three days of failure. However, diagnosis still displays "Secure link to itunes store failed". Very confusing state of affairs, lately. See my post on "Itunes dilemma"

  • Dont resize iTunes Store search view

    So I search for a song on iTunes Store and the result shows in the bottom of the application. I then resize some of the columns so I view all text. Now thats fine. Works perfectly.
    The problem is when I do another search. Then the view that I just resized to be able to view long song and album names are reset to the original tiny size and Ill have to resize them again.
    I dont like this. It ***. All the other listview remember their column width. Can you please also add this feature to the listview in the iTunes Store search result.

    We're just your fellow users here. I'd suggest you send your comment directly to Apple via the iTunes feedback page.
    Regards.
