My itunes doesnt connect to the internet

the ipad software update server couldnt be connected,,,

If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1.3. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.

    I don't use windows, don't you have a help folder...go there, enter firewall, look for how to disable...you can try to update with just your ant-virus disabled, but if your firewall is still active it most likely won't work.

    Try this  - 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 is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • Itunes Cannot Connect to the Internet At All

    I did not have this problem before. now, my itunes cannot access itunes store, it can't get cd track names, it can't check for updates. I read in other topics about how the Internet Explorer 7 update caused this problem and how i have to install the Net Framework 1.1 for SP1. I did all that. I cleared my DNS cache. I disabled my firewall. No matter what i try, i always get the message "Itunes could not connect to Itunes Store. The network connection was terminated unexpectedly. Please make sure your connection is active and try again." Can someone help?

    i am so dissapointed as i cannot use my i touch as i have to keep getting rid of i tunes as i cannot use the interent at all.
    You don't need the internet to use iTunes.
    Do you mean when you use iTunes, the computer will no longer connect to the internet?

  • ITunes cant connect to the internet to retrive 1.2 iPod update

    this is the itunes diagnostic of my network connection...

    I am having the same exact problem as the author. iTunes Store works fine, although when i try to download the iPod Update v.2 from iTunes, it says:
    iTunes could not connect to the iPod software update server because you are not connected to the internet.
    I don't understand why this is happening and would like to know why. Is there anyway I can get a direct download of the update some where on the "internets". Thanks for any help.

  • Airport Network Doesnt Connect to the internet!

    Hi,
    I recently had a long powercut in my area and when the power finally came back on my netgear router would no longer connect to the internet and not even push out a signal (the ethernet cable still feeds internet when plugged directly into the macbook however). I figured the powercut damaged the router and replaced it with the new Apple Base Station Extreme as I already had an Express extending my network via another ethernet cable upstairs which worked fine.
    The problem is still there with the new router. I have set the new network up in Airport Utilitly and the Extreme and Express dont always work. More often than any other issue is the the Internet is flicks from green to orange. The internet ethernet cable I plug into the Extreme clearly feeds internet but as soon as I plug it into the base station I get nothing (im assuming there may have been nothing wrong with my netgear router now and a problem with my connection).
    I have reset the Extreme and Express many times and it works for a while (sometimes), but then I try to connect my ipad/iphone or smart TV to the network and it drops out. All products are apple apart from the TV. So frustrating as I never had these problems before this particular powercut!
    Here are some screen shots of my network:
    1) This is with the internet plugged directly into the macbook
    2) This is with the ethernet cable (which feeds the internet) plugged into the Extreme (and etherent cable from extreme into mac book otherwise you sometimes can see the base stations). With this picture I couldnt access internet or base stations settings.
    Sometimes however the system does work and then suddenly drops out. I have checked my DSL modem/router which feed the internet and there are no problems with it. It doesnt seem consistant at all. How can it suddenly work then drop out? This happens as soon as I connect another device like my ipad as well, then I have to reboot all over. I cant imagine that every device in my house are broken! My network has gone to pot!
    Sending this with the ethernet plugged into my mac book direct haha!
    Would be most grateful if anyone can help!

    Images didnt work in first post, this is the first

  • Downloaded 10.5 why won't itunes store  connect to the internet?

    My wife recently downloaded iTunes 10.5 and now I cannot get the store page.  It says that iTunes is not connected to the internet.  My internet is up and working fine for everything else.  Any solutions out there?

    Have you contacted Sprint?  See if they can resolve your issue, if you can't get 3G.

  • I download tv shows but can only see them in itunes when connected to the internet and periodically all tv shows disappear

Also I am told there is an update for my iPod but I can't dowload it because I am told I am not connected. I also know my broadband connection is good. Have you managed to solve it I can't find any info.

  • TS1398 I get signal it just doesnt connect to the internet?

    well i an getting ip address and subnet mask sometimes but nothing else.  I am getting the bars but i am not getting the internet connection for the internet,  But the computer and the other ipods are getting inernet.

    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.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    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.

  • ITunes cannot connect to the internet

    "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. The network connection timed out."
    "Home Sharing could not be activated because an error occurred (-3259)."
    These are examples of error messages that I have gotten since downloading iTunes on my new netbook (Gateway LT21 with Windows 7 Starter). My internet connection is working fine. I have tried disabling Windows Firewall and Windows Defender, as well as making sure iTunes was allowed, and I uninstalled the Norton Antivirus trial that came with the computer. I have not been able to access the internet from any application (since I did a system restore?), and I only downloaded iTunes after that. I tried uninstalling/reinstalling it, but the same error messages show. I ran the computer in safe mode with networking, and the iTunes store seemed to work... Any suggestions?

  • TS3297 itunes wont connect to the internet even though its already connected...?

    Itunes continues to "load" and "connect" but then finally informs me that Itunes cannot connect due to lack of Internet Connection, even though there is nothing wrong with the connection. Now what?

    Despite the WiFi connection sign you may not really be connected to your WiFi network.
    Your router may not have given your iPod a valid IP address when the iPod requested it. To check on this go to Settings > Wifi > your network name and touch the ">" to the right to see the network details. If the IP address shown starts with 169 or is blank then your router didn't provide an IP address and you won't be able to access the Internet.
    Sometimes the fix for this can be as simple as restarting your router (remove power to it for 30 seconds and restart). Next, reset network settings on your iPod (Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings) and then attempt to connect. In other cases it might be necessary to update the router's firmware with the latest from the manufacturer's support web pages.
    If you need more help please give more details on your network, i.e., your router make, model and version, the wifi security being used (WEP, WPA, WPA2), etc.
