ITunes Store will not allow downloads...

I am trying to download albums from iTunes Store, but I get a message stating "Purchase of this item is not currently available. This item is being modified, please try later." I have been getting this for 36 hours or so....any guesses as to why? I have tried both my iMac and my PC - same result both times.

For whatever reason, the store has pulled it.
Try later, like the message says....tomorrow or next week....some albums just go away for a few months, and magically reappear.

  • After install of Mountain Lion I have no facetime. It is nowhere in hd and ap store will not allow download. Will I need to re-instal ML in order to get it back??

    After install of Mountain Lion I have no facetime. It is nowhere in hd and ap store will not allow download.
    Will I need to re-instal ML in order to get it back?

    Where are you, geographically?
    I might suggest:
    Give this a try:
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Lion/Mountain Lion
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    After this is completed download and install 10.8.4 Mountain Lion Update v10.8.4 (Combo).
    If this doesn't work, then reinstall Mountain Lion:
    Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed.

If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • I have a new computer and the itunes store will not allow me to use the remaining balance on my gift card.

    i have a new computer and the itunes store will not allow me to redeem my remaining balance.  How to handle.

    Details, please. What exactly is happening? How is it "not allowing you" to redeem your balance?

  • HT201269 My Itunes store will not allow me to ADD a new device - a new phone!!  it keeps bring up my husbands name, I want to add my phone & MY device . . . help!!

    I'm afraid you've misunderstood the nature of data on your computer. Yes, you can log into Facebook, GMail, YouTube etc. from any computer and all the content appears in front of you. The same is not true for documents and data created and stored on your own computer. Your iTunes library is this kind of data. It should be backed up on a regular basis and copied to your new computer when you switch machines.

  • When I open iTunes, it will not allow me to preview or download TV shows. The preview and download options are gray and will not let me view them. I have the latest Quicktime so I don't know what's wrong

    When I open iTunes, it will not allow me to preview or download TV shows. The preview and download options are gray and will not let me view them. I have tried installing the latest Quicktime but it tells me that I have to do software update and when I do, Quicktime does not appear to need an update. I have no idea what to do

    Click on your preference and check the Parental tab for possible restrictions.  Open iTunes, then click the iTunes menu, select preferences after the window opens click on the Parental icon, take a look at the content restrictions section.

  • After downloading latest quicktime update, itunes store will not load

    Has anyone had this same problem after downloading latest quicktime update. iTunes store will not load.

    This happened to me today as well post installing the latest version of itunes.   I did a search on google for the error and came across a recommendation to :
    Note: Start Windows in Safe Mode to complete any of the following steps if you're unable to access Windows normally due to the msvcr80.dll error.
    If, and only if, you're receiving the msvcr80.dll is missing error when you open Apple iTunes, do the following: (skip this step if your msvcr80.dll error is occurring with a different program)
    Uninstall from Windows the following five programs in this order: iTunes, Apple Software Update, Apple Mobile Device Support, Bonjour, and finally Apple Application Support. If you have iCloud, remove it as well.
    Uninstalling these programs in Windows is done from an applet in Control Panel called Programs & Features (in Windows 8, 7, or Vista) or Add or Remove Programs (in Windows XP).
    Note: Songs and playlists in iTunes will not be removed when you uninstall the iTunes program or any of the other, already-mentioned Apple programs. If you'd still like to back them up, they're usually located in the My Music folder in Windows.
    Download the latest version of iTunes from Appleand note the location you're saving it to so you can find it once it's done.
    Run the iTunes installation as an administrator. If you're not sure how to do that, see How Do I Open an Elevated Command Prompt? for help. That procedure shows you how to open the Command Prompt program as an administrator, but the steps are essentially the same for anything, including the iTunes installation package you just downloaded.
    A general overview of removing and reinstalling iTunes can also be found here on Apple's site but the above procedure seems to work better in this particular situation.

  • I have itunes version 8.2 and would like to avoid downloading a newer version. The iTunes Store will not leave the page for iTunes 10. How do I fix this?

    The iTunes store will not leave the page for downloading iTunes 10. I just deleted iTunes 10 because of errors to purposely go back to version 8.2. Now I would like to keep 8.2 and not upgrade. How do I get this page to go away, or just keep 8.2? I would like to only have a version before 9.0. Please help!

  • The itunes store will not load.  There are no errors, it just loads halfway, stops.  My intethen rnet is working fine.  I can't download any new songs.

    My itunes store will not load.  There are no error messages.  It loads half way, then stops.  My internet is working fine.  I can't download any songs.

    There are at least 20 threads pertaining to this problem (some from last year, one I saw was from 2006). I suggest anyone who visits this thread redirect to https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3223139?start=0&tstart=0. It has the two most popular solutions and anyone with ongoing issues can discuss and/or form an unruly mob there.

  • TS1424 downloaded itunes and itunes store will not load

    I've installed Itunes from the Apple website, I need to access my account to deauthorise all previous computers however the Itunes store will not load up,any ideas?

    What I don't get about this community is how come we have to rely on other users to guess how to fix major problem....SHOULDN'T BE Apple's duty to surf these users issues and give the RIGHT ANSWER ASAP!!!!!
    Anyway I got the same problem...app store stuck!
    Anybody? Any Apple technician around no?
    Thanks

  • My itunes store will not load i keep getting a blank white screen

    My itunes store will not load when i click on the store a blank white screen will come up and only that

    I have a MacBook Pro and it could be a really simple solution. I had the same problem after updating my iTunes. I finally got through to a guy at Apple who took the time to help me. I use Firefox everyday, but apparently the iTunes Store runs off of Safari. All I had to do was download the most recent version of Safari. Literally, that was it. So easy. Link to the new Safari for Snow Leopard:

    Reason I cant stick to 10.4 is thta iOS5 doesnt sync on 10.4, sigh sigh!

  • Itunes Store will not load again.

    Here we go again. Upgraded to iTunes 10.5, now iTunes Store will not load again in iTUnes. Tried the prior answer in Aug. 17, but does not work this time. Uninstalled iTunes and Apple App. Servce and Quicktime. Reinstalled iTunes from new download. Still not working. Using on XP sp3 machine. iTunes diagnostic says nothing wrong. It connects, but nothing shows in iTunes, just a blank screen. HELP....

    That's exactly like saying, "Hey, try this.  It didn't work either.  Good luck!"
    It's the high-percentage play with the particular symptom set being reported. High-percentage implies that it doesn't work for some people. (Otherwise it'd be a 100% play.) So, it still makes sense for people to try it, even if it doesn't work for some people, because it does work for most people. Check other posts by wiclee using that set of instructions to get a better feel for the reliability of the advice in these circumstances. (Granted, that's a bit tricky given that only about 10-20 percent of people report back to say whether or not any advice (on any given topic) actually works.)

  • ITunes store will not load. Im at a loss

    For about 3 days now the iTunes store will not load. It merely reaches this point:
    +One Moment Please.+
    +Connecting to the iTunes Store.+
    Loading
    +If iTunes doesn't open, click the iTunes application icon in your Dock or Windows Task Bar.+
    (note this message is not from Safari it is from the iTunes Store window in iTunes) I have looked at the FAQ on this site and it's best suggestion was to reset the keychain which I have done, and to check that I have the latest iTunes which I think I do. (iTunes 9.0.3 (15)) Yet it has not worked.
    When I try to update my applications for my iTouch it comes up with a message box saying:
    +Could not complete the iTunes Store request. The store may be busy.+
    +Check your Internet connection or try again later+
    As I said I have waited 3 days for the iTunes store not to be busy. I'm fairly new to macs so don't even really know how to go about diagnosing the issue or posting logs for you guys to look at if that would even help?
    So your advice would be appreciated.
    Thanks
    Brad

    iTunes 9+ uses the Safari 4.0.3 or higher engine to connect to the iTunes Store. Check if your Safari is up to date. If you need an update, get it here (be sure to tick the Snow Leopard version): http://www.apple.com/safari/download/
    Also, check in Safari > Preferences > Security and check that your cookies setting is either Always or Only from sites I visit.
    If your problem still persists, look at this document for some solutions: iTunes for Mac: Possible iTunes Store errors, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1412
