This works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

    Devices show 'Cannot connect to itunes store' when try to purchase via device. However able to purchase via computer therefore password is correct. I purchased a rental film yesterday via ipad so this has just occured today. I've tried rebooting both devices and re sincing with itunes, but the problem remains. I back up via computer not icloud if this makes a difference, which it shouldn't. Any ideas??

    I had this exact issue.  However, I was not even able to "see" the pending downloads when I tried fixing them using the solution above.
    In another thread, I saw that someone mentioned an issue with the use of the "&" (ampersand) symbol in your appleID information.  I had recently changed my name and it did include the & symbol in my name (not the appleID itself).  I replaced the ampersand with the word "and" and saved.  I then went to the iTunes store and logged into my account there and made the same change on my billing name.
    Voila!  I could now access the 7 pending downloads on my desktop Mac and download them, and all iPhone/iPad/Ipods were again able to download from the app store.
    incidentally, I had several support tickets open on this issue and never once did the Apple person even suggest that this might be the issue.

    Whenever i open itunes on my iphone it shows "Cannot connect to iTunes" even when my internet connection is fine.

    Try restarting the iPhone.
    If that doesn't do it, one thing that others have done to fix this is manually set the date and time a few months out  (Settings > General > Date & Time), test it again, and then set it back to the correct time.

    Why does my ipad always says CANNOT CONNECT TO ITUNES STORE even when i got all the internet connections needed?

    Check to make sure you don't have your restrictions turned on, which may be preventing your access to iTunes.
    Tap on the settings icon, then tap General, then check to see if you have restrictions turned to ON.  If so turn it off.

    After trying to update my ipad. I recieved an "unable to update" error message. Now all my ipad will do is show the connect to itunes symbols. I cannot get is to restart or restore. itunes is not recognizing the ipad.

    You will probably need to restore using Recovery Mode. You can read about it here.

    Or you can follow these Recovery Mode Instructions
    Disconnect the USB cable from the iPad, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    Turn off iPad: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for iPad to turn off.
    If you cannot turn off iPad using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the iPad turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
    While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to iPad. When you reconnect the USB cable, iPad should power on.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
    If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the recovery mode alert that iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode.
    Use iTunes to restore iPad.

  • When I click report a problem via my iTunes reciept on my iPad it says cannot connect to iTunes store. There are no Internet problems.

    I am trying to report a problem on an app I bought but when I click report a problem on my iTunes reciept it says cannot connect to iTunes, it is not my Internet connection everything else works fine on it. I have the 3rd generation iPad.

    Hi Aretasha,
    Try resetting your iPad - hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them until the Silver Apple appears. Once it is back up, try again. Also, make sure you are connected to Wifi or 3G....

  • My devices iphone, ipad and itouch Cannot connect to itunes store?

    My iphone, ipad and itouch are not able to get into itunes store.  It says cannot connect to itunes store.

    This started happening when I had to change my apple user id to an email address.  This is what has been causing problems with others.  I called apple tech support & received help fixing it before, but it didn't permanently correct the problems.  I had to go through all these steps that took over 45 minutes.  Can't remember the steps so  I will be on the phone with them again to try & resolve

    I tried restoring iPad1 to prepare it to sell, encountered error during the restore.  iTunes dispalyed a message that there had been an error.  My iPad1 is just showing the image to connect to iTunes, even after i try restarting the iPad1.  I've also restarted my PC and iTunes will not recognize the iPad1.
    iTunes is and will recognize my new iPad3 just fine.
    How do I get my iPad1 to come back to life?
    Thanks!

    No luck.  The article says to press and hold the home button, then plug in the usb cable.  When i do that, I still just have the connect to itunes image on the iPad, and iTunes is not recognizing the iPad.
