Music Store lockup

when I try to access the music store from home (work computer is fine)by logging in or attempting a purchase, I never get a connection and iTunes locks up. I have to ctrl, alt, del to get out of it. I am using iTunes 6, but it happened on all other versions.
Any clues?

hi Steve!
very strange. okay, let's try systematically working through the usual suspects:

Can't see TV shows purchased from Music Store in Full Screen Mode

Prior to the release of iTunes 7.0, I had been purchasing episodes of LOST from the iTunes Music Store and watching the episodes on my Mac in Full Screen viewing mode.
Since downloading iTunes 7.0, I have been unable to watch any television shows purchased from the Music Store from that date forward in Full Screen mode. When I select iTunes>View>Full Screen I can hear the audio, but I cannot see the image. Instead, my monitor goes totally black. If I select iTunes>View>Fit to Screen, I am able to see the video, however, the video does not fill up my screen...instead, I have about two inches of desktop showing on either side of the image. Does anyone know how to solve this problem so that I can once again watch purchased television shows in Full Screen mode?
By the way, I am now running iTunes 7.0.2.

Alan, I just checked and I don't see a section for TV shows in the Canadian store. As the initial deal was made with ABC, I doubt that there is any content available yet for you. I do see the pixar section and the music video section, however.
Similarly, a visit to the Apple Canada site shows no mention of being able to download TV shows.
As with the music, it is going to take a separate lisence to bring TV content to each store. If and when that is going to happen, no one around here would be able to say.

Itunes 6.0.1 tries to go to music store on startup

How do I keep itunes from trying to go to the music store when I plug my iphone into the computer? There must be settings somewhere but I sure can't fine them.
I only use itunes to load an occasional photo onto my phone. I don't have any interest in the rest of it other than an app or two but I can do those on my phone.

I must be the only person with an iPhone who just wants a phone. Well, it was worth a try. Thanks anyway, pards. When my contract runs out, I'll try the new Nokia.

Download Movies from Music Store but will not show up in ITunes Library

I purchased a Movie from the iTunes Music Store. After downloading the movie the movie disappears. It's not in the itunes libaray or anywhere on my hard drive. I looked at my purchases account info for the store and it has a record of my purchase. Is it a itunes bug? ...Apple has no answers. Using iTunes7.

in your source list, below "LIBRARY", do you have a "Movies" category showing up?
if not, try heading into your general preferences and putting a checkmark next to "Movies" in the "Show" area. there's a screenshot of that tab in this document:

if you can get the Movies category to show up in your sourcelist, do the errant Movies show up in it?

Previewing songs in the music store using dial-up connection.

I know, its lame but I live in a very rural area and cannot get high speed out here.
Using dial-up, how do I preview a song before I decide to buy it? I double-click like you're supposed to, but nothing happens.

OVI Music and Nokia Music store login issues

Hi,
Yesterday Nokia rebranded Nokia Music store to OVI Music in India. Earlier I had Nokia Music Store account as OVI login was not supported in Nokia Music store.
So my Nokia Music account and OVI login were different.
Now when login to music.ovi.com and select India as country , I am asked to login.
I can login with my OVI id but then dont see remaining tracks and download history.
I login with my older Nokia Music account and I can see remaining tracks and History.
Some of my friends report that in their case , their Nokia Music and OVI account are merged and tracks and history details are still there.But this has not happened in my case.
Please let me know when Nokia will be able to merge 2 accounts for me. or is there any way I can do it myself? I know that similar thing happened for OVI share and Sports Tracker accounts but they were eventually merged with single OVI account.
Best Regards,
Suyog

I have replied this in other thread too-
"Me too having same issue, i got an email from nokia music that our older usernames have been changed with OVI at the end of old username and password remaining the same. As soon as you receive this email u can see your download history of earlier . and i tried to login by my friends account too by putting OVI at the end of username, the balance of tracks was there but download history is not there. So i think we all have to wait for that email to come from nokia music care to confirm about our account being updated with download history."

Help with purchasing with from another country's Music Store

I'm trying to buy some song from the German iTunes Music Store but iTunes won't let me because my credit card isn't a German credit card. I don't see why this is a problem because the artist and Apple are still going to get money from my purcashe, just from a different country. Any suggestions on the best way to buy a song from the German Music Store?

its the record companies at fault companies like warner and emi in the uk dont want you to buy music from warner in the US or emi in germany as it is lost revenue to that business unit.. record companies are not benevolent suppliers of art they are capitalists and like to accrue money, the whole issue of the music lovers desire for global trading of music has long frustrated them and hence why hefty prices are paid for music imports.. this issue was what frustrated Apple's desire to produce the euro itunes store and the segmenting of the store by country was one of the things it had to do to get the labels to agree to let them have music to sell. The online music sales phenomenon has highlighted the despicable business tactics of the record labels and the EU are i believe investigating them and their shady practises....

ITUNES music store won't open

After doing a clean install on my mac mini, the only problem is with ITunes. The music store won't open, states to make sure my internet connection is open and active, which it is.

The iTunes store seems to be stuggling a bit today under the weight of demand. Uninstalling itunes and installing won't help. Use patience, try later...

"Server not found error" in Music Store

I am getting a server error message when trying to download music from itunes. Is this a problem with my PC or a network issue?

On an iMac running iTunes 6.0.2 I am also getting error when I try to listen to purchased music. "We cold not complete your music store request. The server was ot found. There was an error in the Music Store" At this time I can't authorize or de-authorize this computer, although I can reach the Music Store and play the sample music there.
I hope this is just a temporary glitch. I tried downloading and re-installing 6.0.2 but that didn't help. There is a message about this error on the Apple support list, but it unhelpfully says to upgrade to 6.0.1 so It's behind the times.

Access to ITunes Home Page and Music Stores in Other Countries

In the past two days, I haven't been able to access any
other ITunes music store except the US and only when I press
music and not the little house (home) symbol.
As I am an independent musician and my tracks sell on ITunes
in US and abroad, I've been checking on how my tracks,
particularly, Senza Fine, are doing in other countries
(which top songs are currently posted on my Itunes webpage).
But in two days I can't seem to access the home pages of
countries other than the US, and I'm wondering why the
"Could Not complete the Music Store Request--the Store
may be busy" BOX keeps coming up. My internet connections
seem fine.
Other than that, I think ITunes is the best. I'm also happy to see the Starbucks connection and availablity of dvd's.
Thank you for any input,

I just fixed it, thanks to another poster's info. I had to
uninstall my old ITunes and 70.2 Quicktime and install the
new ITunes 7.0 with 7.1.1.3 Quicktime player. Now I have
access to all files, all countries.

How do I redeem a gift card in iTunes music store, without upgrading iTunes

Slow response from iTunes Music Store

This is a problem for a lot of iTunes Music Store customers. Many people have complained that they get "cannot connect to the Music Store" error messages. Apple replies that repairing the Keychain can fix the problem, but I and several others in various discussion forums find that doesn't help.
After upgrading to iTunes 6 and repairing my keychain, then restarting, I find that I can connect to the Music Store only after repeated attempts. I get the error message repeatedly, but if I keep trying enough times, I finally get through.
A similar problem happens when I try to preview or buy songs -- I get several error messages, then finally connect.
Using the Radio feature is similarly frustrating. I have to wait ten minutes or more after clicking on a genre to get a list of stations, and often I have to face a long wait with no error messages after selecting a station.
I don't have this problem when connecting to the Music Store from other computers, but I have no other problems connectin to the Web from Safari or Firefox, or with any e-mail program.
However, Apple's site seeems wonky -- lots of "document contains no data" when I click on forums or even to log in.
I am using an iMac G4 (the dome computer) with Mac OS X.2.8.
Apple, what's the solution?

You're not alone. Since Saturday I seem to be experiencing two problems;
1: The previews of tracks don't work properly - that is to say, they don't download correctly - I'm on 2Mb broadband and I've had to switch it into download the whole preview before playing due to it only playing 12 seconds of the 30 seconds if I leave it 'on the fly'
2: I have repeated problems downloading tracks from the ITMS. THey get 50% of the way through then I get ;
"There was an error downloading your purchased music. The network connection was reset. Make sure your network connection is active and try again."
After repeated retries I eventually get the track downloaded but it's painful.
Again - this has only started happening since Saturday (I've been using ITMS on my mac since it opened in the UK), and like I said I'm on 2Mbits/s broadband with no other issues.
