Message "could not sign in" when in App Store

Why is it that I get the message "could not sign in" whenever I try to download?  When I put in the wrong password, it knew it was the wrong password. When I put in the correct password, I get the above message. Thoughts?

Sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try again.

  • HT2731 What do you do when you get the message could not sign in an unknown error has occurred

    What do you do when you get the message could not sign in an unknown error has occurred when it ask for your password while trying to download apps?

    In settings I signed out of my iTunes account, then signed back in.
    It’s now working for me… Hope this helps.

  • I am trying to download an app and keep getting this error message: "Could not sign in. An unknown error has occurred" keeps popping up.

    This is a question for a mini iPad...
    I am trying to download an app and keep getting this error message: "Could not sign in. An unknown error has occurred.  I have tried shutting down and restarting. I've tried changing the password. I get the error message with free and not free apps. Any suggestions on how to fix?

    Reports are that this is a problem with the iTunes Store that they're working on. Some people have had success after signing out of their account and back in. If that doesn't work for you, wait a few hours or perhaps until tomorrow and by then they may have the problem sorted out.
    Regards.

  • Could not sign in when trying to down load app on i phone

    I am trying to down load an app on my Iphone.  I get the message "Could not sign in".  I have changed my password three times so I don't think this is the problem.  Help!  What else can I do?

    Check that the email address is correct for your login. You'd be surprised how many times I've seen people see the prompt and just go with a password and not realize that the email address was wrong.
    Aside from that, you can try resetting your password via the iForgot app.
    If you forgot your password, you can easily recover or reset it using iForgot. For security reasons, Apple cannot reset your password for you. To protect yourself against unauthorized purchases to your credit card, do not give out your password to anyone.
    NOTE: If you attempt to sign in to the Apple Online Store numerous times with the wrong password, you will see the following error message: “This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons." To reset your account, use iForgot.

  • Cannot activate facetime on iPhone 5 and got below message  "Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again". All networks work well (WI-FI or At

    I got my new iPhone 5 Last Friday. However I can not activate facetime on the new iPhone 5. All other function work well.
    I used my apple ID and always get the below message " Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again".
    My network work well. I can access internet, apple store with no issue via wi-fi or AT&T 4G. No password issue as I can use the same apple ID register other access and apple store.
    I noticed that many users are complaining the facetime after upgrading to iOS6. Not sure if this is the reason?
    Any one here can help on this?
    Thanks

    Facetime is accessed through Contacts or Messages. The only place you will find anything else in is Settings, where you would activate it. There is no stand alone app for Facetime like on the iPod or iPad.

  • I deleted all Apps on iPad as they were associated with an out of date Apple ID and I could not update them, but the "App Store" logo still shows that there are 2 to be updated and when I go there I cannot delete. Please assist. Thanks.

    I deleted all Apps on iPad as they were associated with an out of date Apple ID (which I have forgotten the password) and I could not update them, but the "App Store" logo still shows that there are 2 to be updated and when I go there I cannot delete. Please assist. Thanks.

    Why don't you explain what happens when you try to delete these two apps that are showing that they need updates. You can only delete them if they are actually installEd on the iPad. Are they on the device?

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
