Only syncs in one direction and can't connect to iTunes Store
I'm having a few problems with my AppleTV:
My AppleTV only syncs from AppleTV back to my Powerbook; content doesn't get uploaded to ATV. Has worked previously for a couple of years without incident.
Attempting to fix wiped out all content from ATV; now no syncing occurs at all; iTunes does see ATV and "syncing" starts, but just seems to hang. Can stream to ATV though; so iTunes does see the ATV but no syncing. Since I lost all content on ATV decided to do a factory reset but it didn't help.
Have also tried syncing with ethernet cable, but was getting Port 3689 problems even though I wasn't using wireless and was only trying to transfer content via ethernet cable from Mac to ATV.
Now ATV won't see the iTunes store " iTunes Store unavailable try again later" message although I can view YouTube videos on ATV, so I know the internet connection is working. But I can access iTunes store from my computer directly; so I know that iTunes Store is working!
I think the ATV is great but it has caused me a lot of grief the past 2 days!
Thank you!
Matt
So one problem is solved..although I did a factory reset today (as a last resort), I neglected to do a software update to bring the ATV up-to-date. Once I did that, i can at least see the iTunes store from the ATV.
Syncing is still a problem, since I have no content on the ATV, since the factory reset, I don't know if it still will only sync one way (from ATV to computer). But it says its syncing now..although the capacity meter in iTunes is still showing up with nothing on it.

I can't create mi Apple ID and can't connect into iTunes Store HELP PLEASE NEW USER
Hi, im new with this. I just got a new MacBook Pro 13" with IOs X Lion. Im having a big trouble with my apple ID. I cant create an ID. first was the credit card security code. Somebody told me to follow the instructions in this link to solve the problem ( iTunes Store: My credit card's security code or zip code does not match my bank's records ) but i cant even connect to Itunes Store. PLEASE I NEED SOME HELP URGENT!!
P.D: I created an ID on apple page but it seems that doesnt work for nothing. I tried using that ID on both (Itunes an App Store) but doesnt work.First and foremost, I agree with gdgmacguy about using the support link. That is most likely your best bet. But, I have read posts from other users that had issues with their Apple ID that you must enter your address exactly like it appears on you credit card statement. Don't abbreviate "street" or "road" - things like that - unless that matches your statement exactly. Have you moved and maybe not changed your address on your credit card statement yet...??
I am not saying that is the reason you can't create the ID, but it has been an issue for some. You could try what I suggest, but the support link is the best way to go if you can't get it accomplished on your own.
here is the support link.

I keep getting an error message "can not connect to the iTunes stores" - what gives.
Microsoft does not currently have a Mac App Store version of Microsoft Office. So any apps that you find in the Mac App Store that sound like those programs are probably helper programs by third-party developers. The only way to get Office for Mac is directly from Microsoft on their website.

Keep getting error message and can not connect to itunes store.
Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

hi, i am having a problem in my ipad 2 , it is not showing main screen just showing a black blank screen in which downloading icon is only shwn which is continously and when i connect to itunes via windows 7 it showing this error (0xE8000065) can any one
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely. Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again. -
"Can not connect to iTunes Store" via iPhone and iPad
I can not connect to iTunes store from my mobile divices. I can through iTunes on my Macbook Pro running Leopard (10.6.8). My company has not authorized update to Lion yet.
I have the same problem on my iPhone and iPad 1. This has occured since updating to IOS 5.0.1, but I do not know if it is the cause or just a coincidence.
Since I can make purchases through my Macbook and sync, it's not a crisis, but just an big irritation.Apple ID problems.
An additional consideration might be that I have had Apple ID problems. With the move to an ID for iCloud my old Apple ID and a new one using an email address got mixed up and in conflict. It took Apple Support staff to clean it up. For a few days, everything seemed to be running fine on my new/old/restored single ID. I did not think this was a problem, because the error sited a connection problem not an ID or password problem. Could this be a factor? -

My Apple ID was disabled. I reseted it successfully. Afterwards, when I am trying to update the pending apps in App Store on my phone, in order to sign in to iTunes Store I am requested to enter a password to the wrong Apple ID which definitely does not belong to me ('[email protected]'). Of course, I don't know this password and, consequently, I can't connect to Itunes Store on my Iphone. As a result my Viber and Facetime are not active in the meanwhile. What should I do? Thanks in advance for kind help and solution.
Where did you get this iPhone?
Was it new or second hand?
You have to sign out then sign in with the correct Apple ID and password.
Settings > iTunes & App Store > Apple ID: > do it here. -

Power cycle the router.
Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved. -

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.
