ITunes Truly Epitomizes Definition of Insanity since can't download free apps due to Technical Difficulties and iTunes says to try again later and get same results

iTunes truly epitmizes the Definition of Insanity.   I can't even download free apps.  iTunes says they are having technical difficulties.  What an understatement.  iTunes makes everyone go crazy by saying to try again later.  When we try again, same result. 

Ha!
I've been saying that iTunes is a "@#8*!^8 crazy *#!" ever since I reinstalled it, LOL!
I had that thing, just about *duct-taped and stuffed between the attic rafters* for the past 3 years,
and never missed it.
Then...well...I told my husband, that I must've incurred an Aneurysm during sleep...because for some reason, the %*@$! has now reappeared, and is just as OCD and Hyper, as it was when I had it
*locked up*!
But my husband keeps swearing that I re-downloaded it, because I missed hearing my favorite
pod-shows.
Anyhoo...since, I've re-inflated it, I've only used it for 1/2 an evening, before I gave a yell, and pulled the plug on it, yet again!
A.n.y.t.i.m.e I tried to do ANYTHING, that crazy &#tc+ was right there...and I swear that I could hear a hyper never-pausing-for-breath 'voice', which seemed to shrill:
                    "Can I do it, huh, huh? Can I open, huh? huh? I wanna do it, I wanna I wanna!!
                     "Prrlleaaase! I just wanna open it!! You know I can!  So can I, huh huh!!"
So it's *locked-up under my porch crawl space* until....well....until... (0;
I actually just came on here to say that, during the 3 or so hours that I attempted to reason with that Demento, I was never able to access the iTunes Store, either.
                         "I can't access the iTunes Store.
                          It must be busy, so I'll try again later."
And while it was trying to convince of that, I managed to get in and out of the iTunes Store, about 3 separate times...and had managed to listen and download about 5 or so pods...but it just kept repeating that same line.
Like its dose of Lithium had worn off, and now it was just about ready to show me its
*Alvin the Chipmunk Alter-Persona*...
But it never got the chance.
I haven't heard a peep out if since, LOL!
I figure there's enough to keep me occupied on here...so if doesn't behave itself soon....
Yeah...you KNOW what I'm talkin' bout, LOL!
Well, I gots to go now, but you have yourself, a fabulous weekend!

    Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card

    If None is not available - On your computer launch iTunes and click "iTunes Store" in the left navigation pane. Click the "down arrow" next to your name at the top right side of the page and click "Account." Enter your username and password and click "View Account" to log into your account information. Next to your Payment Type, click "Edit." Select the "None" button and click "Done." Confirm that your card has been removed by returning to the Apple account information screen. Under Payment Type, it should say that there is no credit card on file.

  • My ipad and itunes account is registered in the UK - can I download movies on wifi in the US from itunes?

    my ipad and itunes account is registered in the UK - can I download movies on wifi in the US from itunes?

    You can only buy from the UK iTunes Store, and per the Terms of Use for the UK Store, you agree not to attempt to use it from outside of the UK. Apple may take technological steps to prevent such use, though I've never seen any reliable indication that they do so.
    Regards.

  • HT5622 how can i download free apps with out a credit card

    how can i download free apps with out a credit card

    If you only want the free apps, take a look here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    Read the steps carefully as the order in which you follow them is  critical. Note that you can do this only when creating a new Apple ID. You cannot use an existing ID. 
    You will of course not be able to get anything other than the free apps without entering in some sort of payment method (credit card, prepaid iTunes card, gift certificate, etc.)
    Regards.

  • I reset and erased my iphone 4 and now I can`t reinstall it! After I choose a language, region. and wifi, it says Please, try again later or contact customer care

    I reset and erased my iphone 4 and now I can`t reinstall it! After I choose a language, region. and wifi, it says Please, try again later or contact customer care. I tried to do with iTunes, and iTunes even sees this iphone, but it`s like blank, there is nothing I can do in iTunes. It uploaded last software for this iPhone 4, but when it tries to do the reserve copy of iphone first, it shows a mistake. And ask to disconnect and connect the device again, which, obviously, doesn`t help.

    This usually happens if the phone has been Hacked / Jailbroken / Modified...
    Is this the case...?
    If so...
    Then... Sorry... But...

  • Can I download free apps to my iPad without putting in a credit a card??

    Can I download free apps to my iPad without putting in a credit a card??

    I think that the trick to this is that you have to try to download a free app in order to get the iTunes store to ask you to create the account.
    Copied from the kb article above .....
    Creating an account on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
    If you already have an account, choose Settings > Store. Tap the Apple ID displayed and choose Sign Out.
    Open the App Store on your device.
    Find a free application on the App Store.
    Important: Before proceeding to the next step, you must download and install the free application by tappingFree followed by tapping Install.
