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.

    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.

  • Cannot connect to iTunes store when I try to update apps...why?

    When I try to update my apps, it says cannot connect to iTunes store.  Why and how do I fix this?

    Thanks for responding turingtest2 - I finally worked it out (no thanks to Apple!) - I am in South Africa at the moment and availability of content here is very limited (it seems) according to the bloggers - when I looked there is a tiny faint grey note at the bottom of http://www.apple.com/za/itunes/download ...
    it seems to pick up South Africa and the UK - in fact I have set up an alternative UK apple ID so I suppose it sees my ipad, checks my "accounts" and constructs the note accordingly?  Weird. 
    It would have been REALLY helpful to have a clear indication of content availability when setting up the South African account.  I have found the several places where the experts explain how to work around this problem with fake US addresses and voucher payments.  I don't want to do that. 
    I have to say that my limited experience with iTunes and Apple over three years (previously on PC/Windows) is way below what I would expect from Apple inc ... this incident must have wasted four hours of my life ...

    Try this first - Reset 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.
    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.

  • Help! Phone says "Cannot connect to iTunes store" when I attempt to update. Am able to update on computer, and also to download new apps.

    I have been trying to update apps on my phone and get the same message. However, I am
    able to download new apps with no problem. I am able to update the apps on my computer.
    When I synch the phone to the computer, it doesn't update the apps on my phone - I still get
    the same message. Help!!! So annoying,

    Try logging out of your account on the iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store and then log back in and see if it then works.
    If that doesn't solve it then what has worked for some people is going into Settings > General > Date & Time and change the date to a few months in the future and then re-trying

  • My ipad2 says "cannot connect to iTunes store" when updating apps

    My iPad2 says "cannot connect to iTunes store" when updating apps.  Connects properly when buying apps or music - only problem is when updating.   I have tried all the suggestions that I have found:  soft reset, ensuring that restrictions, changing my apple account password, turning on automatic downloads.
    Any ideas?  Thanks much.

    Same here. I have an iPad2, IOS5 WiFi and the iPad can not connect to iTunes store from Videos and Itunes App.
    App Sore is OK, and Safari also where connection is ok.
    My computer, Windows 7/64 connects via iTunes utility ok.
    I upgraded to IOS5 the same day as I got the iPad2, and I am not sure if it worked before.
    Any solutions to this problem ?
    It looks like that many other users have similar problem.

    You need to have a data connection. Tap Settings App > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Then in Settings App make sure Data is ON, or if you want make sure WiFi is ON.
