Hi,
What security software is running on the PC? The security software could be causing the issue, try to reconfigure or temporarily disable it.
You can also try flushing the DNS as shown here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1527

Any advice would be very much appreciated.
Thanks very much.I have been experiencing this as well for about a month and just about five minutes ago I resolved it! I have done everything! You need to unistall iTunes and Quicktime. Don't think you will loose your music as it is on you PC. Trust me. _Follow the links_ on unistalling everything, download it again with the following link and all you music automatically uploads again. It was amazing!

ITunes could not connect to the iTunes store. The network conect timed out
I am having trouble with iTunes,
Message: "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes store. The network conection timed out. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active then try again."
Im not sure when exactlt this happend, it may have been after i downloaded an iTunes update, but I cant be sure. Other than that nothing else has really changed. I have now had this problem for a couple of weeks.
I am running windows Vista (32 bit System)on my HP Laptop and have ADSL and am able to run explorer and all other non-apple software.
I have tried all other advice offerd in the various supports:
1. re-installed iTunes
2. Checked all firewall settings - even removed Norton security (currently just operating on windows Visat security and have checked all that)
3. changed "host" file to "back-host"
4. played around and tested various internet settings
I hope this information helps to solve the problem. I have also recently found some other information which may be useful:
Although I do not use "safari" as an internet explorer, this does not work on my system either. I have re-installed this to see if it helps but am still unable to connect to the apple store (home page) on safari. I have looked up the support site for safari but have thus far be unable to find any helpful information to solve the problem.
Please help this is very frustrating...
Many thanks in advance!Thanks Polydorus,

ITunes Store Network Connection Issue
Hello,
I have a 80GB Classic ipod I use on my home computer with Windows XP. I opened iTunes last night but could not open the store. This is the message I recieved. (iTunes could not connect to the store network connection was reset). I can open IE and Outlook Express email so I don't have a network issue other then iTunes.Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!Weird happenings for me too...Yesterday I couldn't download a free app, and today, none of my app update downloads will download. I just get the progress bar that says "Downloading ___", followed by "Could not purchase ______. The network connection was reset". Frustrating for sure.
Update: Now, I can download some of the apps, but just got an error that says "There was an error in the iTunes Store. Please try again later." Even going directly to the item in the iTunes Store doesn't work. There's definitely something weird going on.

I am getting for the last days a constant error msg while downloading or visiting iTune store: "network connection was lost" (sometimes also ways it was "reset" instead). But, the network is working (I can make othe rdownloads and visit to other internet sites). Any idea about the problem?
Mac server or Windows server? Have you checked her permissions/access vs another user not having the issue?

when downloading ios 5 to my itunes an error message saying "the network connection has timed out" keeps popping up. how do i fix this?
Temporarily dip ****.
And excluding the extremely high network traffic due to the many millions of users downloading the update a day or two after is was released, this is a problem with that swiss cheese for security garbage OS that is Windows only, which is the joke. An update that is now running on 1 in 3 compatible iDevices which is in the 10's of milllions is vaporware Einstein?
If I were your rep, I would tell you to **** off. Go get Windoze mobile devices. -
I keep getting an error when trying to update an app- cannot connect to store. I logged out from my account and tried to log back in and got the same error. I am doing all this from my phone since I no longer own a personal computer (only work) since I use iCloud and I tunes match
YAY!!! Saved it in my Mac's Firefox Bookmarks for easy future access!
Hope you are having a lovely afternoon today! I'm about ready to go bobo....I have an early meeting, and I don't want to oversleep! The nice part is that I work remotely, so I only have to wake up 15 minutes or so before the meeting.... I don't even use an alarm clock anymore (really, my iPhone alarm, which is much more pleasant), unless I have to get up at 6:30 or something....

Have you tried re-booting your WiFi router ? It may seem OK on your PC, but a re-boot may help.

I can't connect to Wi-Fi - keeps timing out. No problem connecting from other laptops / phones. Stopped working after I did a system upgrade. What can I do? I am on OS X Yosemite.
Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried, until the problem is resolved. Some of these steps are only possible if you have control over the wireless router.
Step 1
Turn Wi-Fi off and back on.
Step 2
Restart the router and the computer. Many problems are solved that way.
Step 3
Change the name of the wireless network, if applicable, to eliminate any characters other than letters and digits. You do that on your router via its web page, if it's not an Apple device, or via AirPort Utility, if it is an Apple device.
Step 4
Run the Network Diagnostics assistant.
Step 5
In OS X 10.8.4 or later, run Wireless Diagnostics and fix the issues listed in the Summary, if any.
Step 6
Back up all data before proceeding.
Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Enter the name of your wireless network in the search box. You should have one or more "AirPort network password" items with that name. Make a note of the name and password, then delete all the items. Quit Keychain Access. Turn Wi-Fi off and then back on. Reconnect to the network.
Step 7
You may need to change other settings on the router. See the guidelines linked below:
Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
Potential sources of interference
Step 8
Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.
Step 9
Reset the System Management Controller (SMC). -

Iphone 5 Screen is Frozen Connection Timeout Error Connection to this app has timed out
I upgraded to IOS 7 just a few hours before my Iphone 5 screen froze and I cannot make changes - I have a Connection Timeout Error with Connection to this app has timed out. With Ok in blue. The screen doesn't respond, I can turn off the phone, tap OK or do anthing. Any advice on how I can reset or fix?
Check for any anti-virus or anti-spyware software you might have. Temporarily disable that to continue. Normally this is what will cause a timeout. I assume you have a good Internet connection?

some times my internet connection will say it has timed out and I can not connect. but my friends mac never has a problem. How can I fix this?
Just confirming, when you have the trouble, the wifi icon is grayed-out or has all bars showing? I believe you are saying that is is grayed-out - not connected to your wireless router.
I have a Mini that started to lose connection to the Internet after the 10.7.3 update but still showed the wireless as connected. If I pinged the wireless router, I would get a quarter of the packets failing to return. The router was a Netgear that supported 802.11N connections. As a test, I set it to 802.11G (54MBps) maximum and the Mini worked fine for a week - no dropouts. And for the other devices that did support 802.11N, while there was a noticeable delay with downloads and pages loading, they still worked.
As another test, I changed the Netgear router to a Billion 802.11N model and the Mini has not had a problems since. (It is still using 802.11g). So it could be your router that is causing trouble for your Mac.
Have a look at some of the More Like This postings in the right column. There has been a number of Mac owners experiencing wifi connection issues and some very good suggestions as to how to resolve their issue. -
I try to redeem an iTunes GC and I get a "Session Has Timed Out" Message. The same thing happens when I try to download a song, after I'm taken to the SLA page. I sent Apple Support an email. They told me its software on my computer restricting access to my Internet Connection, but I haven't installed any new software since my last purchase from the iTunes Store. What can I do to fix this?!?! Thanks
Delete and redownload them if doing so is free in your country.
