Network connectioncould not be made/error in Itunes Store

I am using Windows Vista (Home Premium Service Pask 1), IE7, Itunes 8, Norton IS 2009 (version 16.02.07, Belkin wirelsess modem. I can connect to the Itunes Store and search for music but when I try to buy a track the error message says that the request could not be completed as the network connection could not be made. It also says tha there was an 'error in the Itunes Store'. I can access and change my account information, I have tried two different payment methods. Switching off all Norton features does not have any effect. I re-installed Norton and Itunes yesterday, in that order so that Norton might be tailored during Itunes install. That seemed to work because program control entries were added. I have run diagnostics in Itunes and all connections were sucessfull (only anomaly is that diags said the user is not an administrator which it was). I have searched microsoft, symantec and itunes web-sites and I am losing the will to live! Can anyone help, please?

Fixed it myself shortly after posting the question by enabling protected mode in IE7! I can only put it down to the collective telepathic powers of the Itunes user community. Once I got past acknowledging an apple T&C's change I enabled protected mode and was still allowed to download. I am now a happy buyer.

    Applecare Senior Advisor Txx Bxxx (I have his contact info in an email he just sent) just confirmed with me that the problem people are having with the App Store not loading is an apple issue with there servers, ITS NOT YOUR IPAD so don't go restoring it!   It's not happening to everyone however but they are looking into it, its really hit or miss.

    Best Fixes for ‘Cannot Connect to iTunes Store’ Errors

    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.

    imatch has not completed loading step 1. Error (0x800B0109) There was an error in itunes store.

    I had this error with iTunes on Windows XP.  I solved it by going to Microsoft Update, selecting "Custom" to do a custom scan (not Express), then installed "Update for Root Certificates for Windows XP [April 2012] (KB931125)".
    If you're using Windows 7 or Vista, this linke might work too:

  • Error Message: This Apple ID has not yet been used with Itunes Store

    I set up Apple ID.  When I try to make purchase on Itunes Store, systems asks for Apple ID & Password.  When I enter, I receive Error Message:  This Apple ID has not yet been used with Itunes Store.  Options to click Review Account or Cancel.  When I click Review Account, it asks for my Apple ID & Password again and gives me the same Error Message.  How do I make a purchase?

    This isnt an error message as such, but it should give you the option to review and confirm your account details, which is necessary before you can use the account on that machine.

  • HT1911 What is error 1202? I cannot connect to itunes store. i have downloaded the latest version of itunes and still not able to connect to itunes store.

    What is error 1202? I cannot connect to itunes store. i have downloaded the latest version of itunes and still not able to connect to itunes store.

    For those who are getting annoyed, I have found a solution which requires you to create a new apple ID without using credit card information:
    1. Go the app store
    2. Hit cancel when it asks you to sign in (If it doesn't, continue to step 3)
    3. Find a free app and try to download it
    4.  you to sign in option will appear, it will ask you if you want to use existing ID or create a new apple id. SELECT CREATE NEW APPLE ID
    5. Follow the steps and when it gets to the stage it asks you for your card info, Choose 'None'
    6. Full in all you name and address etc... And click next.
    7. Verify your email and Enjoy downloading FREE apps
    8. Say thank you as I do appreciate your love :)

  • Apple id has not been used with the itunes store-please review your account information

    Hello,
    Good Day.
    I bought apple ipad 2 and need help.
    I registered online and after this i am getting the error.
    apple id has not been used with the itunes store-please review your account information
    Can any one help me in this issue.
    Thanks&Regards,
    Shankar.M

    This is information you you have created an apple id.
    To use this apple id for the itunes store, you have to agree to the terms and conditions and enter in the requested information before you can use the store.
    When you create an apple id it does not mean you gain access to all apples features, you would need to create a :-
    Itunes id
    Facetime id
    Game centre id
    imessage id
    icloud id
    You can use the same email address as each login. but until you agree to each terms and conditions you wont be able to access the services.
    This is usually done the first time you access each service and sign in with your apple id.
    As to iTunes you need a little extra as they will request to confirm details as to address, etc, with the payment information they can confirm you are actually in that country you are trying to purchase from.
    Once you have added the credit card details, you can go back in a set payment method to none and remove the credit card details once you have activated the itunes on your apple id.
    Basically this message you are getting is just ADDING the feature of iTunes store to your apple id, and confirms you have not got a iTunes id yet.

  • Unknown error in iTunes Store 11222

    For the past couple of days when I've tried to sync my iPod, I've been getting a message "cannot connect to iTunes Store. Check your network connection and try again." Network connection checked. Even ran iTunes diagnostics to confirm that my iTunes was on the net. Passed with flying colors--even said that my iTunes was connected to the Store! But when I tried to connect, got the same message the first time, then on the second click received "unknown error in iTunes store 11222." I need some help here, or the iTune Store techs need to fix a problem. . .

    I got my daughter a brand new Ipod today and was forced to download ITunes V8, and ran into this error. I have spent the better part of christmas trying to get this to work without luck. I have renamed the host file, cleared dns, updated my firewall to assure that itunes is clear to communicate, assured that I don't have proxy server set, etc. I had Version 7 and never had any problems. This thing doesn't do me much good if I cannot purchase music, and it seems this problem has been going on for a while since I see posting from October. I can access any website that I want outside the Itunes application, so it isn't my web connection....any thoughts.

  • Recently updated to itunes 10.6.1, but during update it says itunes does not have a valid signature and update fails ,now older version is not able to connect to itunes store

    Recently updated to itunes 10.6.1, but during update it says itunes does not have a valid signature and update fails ,now older version is not able to connect to itunes store error 306. I am using windows 7.

    (Apologies for butting in, wha.)
    now older version is not able to connect to itunes store error 306. I am using windows 7.
    If you still get the 306 after updating to 10.6.1.7, perhaps try the following user tip:

    You copy them from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.
    The iphone is not a backup/storage device.
