My IPad says "cannot connect to iTunes store" when I try to update

My IPad says "cannot connect to iTunes store" when I try to update apps. How can I resolve this?

I had the same problem and tried absolutely everything...on my own and stuff I'd read on-line. Nothing worked. What finally did was this. I held down an app until all started jiggling. Then I deleted one of the ones that needed updating. Then pushed the round button at the bottom of the iPad to stop the movement. Then went to the "Featured" section of the App Store. In the search box (top right corner) I typed in the name of the app I'd just deleted. When it pulled up, I chose "Install". Worked perfectly. I went through this process, one-by-one, until I got all of them done. Now, everything is updated.
Sure hope this helps you and hope this isn't the new norm for how to do updates. I used to just select "Update All", entered my password, and the updates started happening.

If you are having WiFi problems it is necessary to isolate whether the problem is with your network or your iPad. Note: Do NOT consider your network to be blameless if some other devices can connect to it.
First, test your iPad on some other WiFi networks: a friends, Starbucks, Barnes & Noble, etc.
If it works well there then the problem is probably with your network. Try restarting your WiFi router by removing power for 30 seconds. If that does not help check for a firmware update for your router. If none exists which corrects the problem consider replacing the router.
If your iPad does not function well on other networks it possibly has a hardware problem. You could try Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings to see if that corrects the problem. If not, contact Apple Support or visit an Apple store for evaluation. They can provide a replacement if your iPad is bad.
If you need more help please give the make, model, and version of your WiFi router and how you have it configured.

Ipad says "cannot connect to iTunes"

iPad says "cannot connect to iTunes Store" but can access internet and receive emails...just won't work with App Store? Any suggestions?

Can't Connect to the iTunes Store
Some times it can be as simple as restarting or rebooting your iPad and rebooting your router. Unplug the router for 20-30 seconds and then plug it in again.
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.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Quit iTunes or the App Store and restart. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. 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.

How do I fix this on my iPhone 4S?

Same phone and ios, same problem. Worked just fine for me Sunday, but nothing today, all day. As a workaround I found I can still connect using iTunes on my Macbook Pro, the I synch my iPhone. There are way too many people with the same problem for it to be anything but Apples problem. Hope this helps.

Hi,
Are you running any Anti-virus software or do you have your firewall turned on? If so, disable them and try again. If that doesn't work, delete the iCloud account and then sign it back on again.
Make sure you are running the most current version of the iCloud Control Panel:

When I try to sign into my sync account it says that there is not such user.

When I try to sign into my sync account it says that there is not such user. I do NOT want to register again, as doing so has a perverse way of creating duplicate accounts. I also have an account password file to keep track of user login data: user name, email address used, password, so this is not a matter of just forgetting the account name etc. I just updated to Firefox 29, though this could be coincidental.
I use windows 7, with latest updates & patches.

Firefox 29 introduced a new sync mechanism. This new system has only been around for about 2 months, so it is likely that you actually don't have an account. You can see help information for the new Sync here: [[How to update to the new Firefox Sync]].

Ipad 2 keeps saying cannot connect to the server when i put in my facebook password

I have tried:

Have you tried rebooting your router - unplug it for about 30 seconds and then plug it in again - or temporarily disabling your firewall or anti virus software?
