Problem downloading iTune Store tracks on NAS - "Connection Timed Out"

I am having a problem downloading iTune Store tracks on NAS - "Connection Timed Out"
I am trying to use the following for my "iTunes Music Location" - \\Nas1\media\Music\iTunes\iTunes Music
However, when I try to purchase music, I receive the following message:
"There was an error downloading your purchased music. The network connection timed out. Make sure your network settings are correct and your connection is active, then try again."
I can purchase songs, the song will begin to download, the appropriate files and folders will be created on the NAS (I can see them), it seems to make two tries to complete the download, then stops, and show me that message.
My network connection (DSL) is fine, and the network is up.
Anything I can do? Is it possible to store iTunes on the NAS, or do I have to set it up to store purchases locally?
Thanks

    Have you disabled any firewall and security/antivirus programs?  This seems to have helped the vast majority of people who have posted the same problem in this forum.

    I am having similar issues except that the store starts to load, then stops, then I only get iTunes Store in gray letters on a white screen. I can access playlist and the other stuff. Like flamesgirl, I contacted them and they just keep sending me links of stuff to try which I had already seen on the Apple website and nothing works. I posted the question on another forum I belong to and one responder said her husband was in an Apple store and asked about this problem as he was having the same issue. They said an update would be coming out soon as they were aware of the problem. Who knows.

    Please help me out.. thank you

    I have Windows 7 and after going through several suggestions, the one that worked for me was this:
    A Dell service representative removed an expired version of McAfee and a half *** version of Norton Antivirus (problem #1: I should only have one functioning virusware up, not two or more)...I then purchased a reliable Antivirus + Cleaner from the Dell rep and he installed it.
    The Dell rep then noticed that when he checked my computer properties, I had the following:
    Windows 7 Home Premium
    Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation.  All rights reserved.
    Service Pack 1 <I WAS MISSING THIS PARTICULAR ITEM; THE DELL REP ADDED THIS>
    Once the Dell rep did this, I was able to access my iTunes Store and get things updated from 10.5 to 10.6....It took 2 hours, but glad it got done.

  • ITunes could not connect to the iTunes store. The network conect timed out

    I am having trouble with iTunes,
    Message: "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes store. The network conection timed out. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active then try again."
    Im not sure when exactlt this happend, it may have been after i downloaded an iTunes update, but I cant be sure. Other than that nothing else has really changed. I have now had this problem for a couple of weeks.
    I am running windows Vista (32 bit System)on my HP Laptop and have ADSL and am able to run explorer and all other non-apple software.
    I have tried all other advice offerd in the various supports:
    1. re-installed iTunes
    2. Checked all firewall settings - even removed Norton security (currently just operating on windows Visat security and have checked all that)
    3. changed "host" file to "back-host"
    4. played around and tested various internet settings
    I hope this information helps to solve the problem. I have also recently found some other information which may be useful:
    Although I do not use "safari" as an internet explorer, this does not work on my system either. I have re-installed this to see if it helps but am still unable to connect to the apple store (home page) on safari. I have looked up the support site for safari but have thus far be unable to find any helpful information to solve the problem.
    Please help this is very frustrating...
    Many thanks in advance!

    trying to download iphone update and my network connection timed out.  how can i correct this?

    Temporarily disable your firewall and antivirus software and try again...

    cannot update and download ios 5 to iphone 4 or ipad...everytime i try i get half way through a 2 hour download for it to say "network connection timed out" what do i do to download

    When you get anything that says your network connection timed out it either means you lost internet connection or there is something blocking the connection between the computer and the servers that it is trying to connect to.
    If you have a solid internet connection and can browse to websites fine it's either an anti-virus program or a firewall on the computer OR a firewall in the router's settings that you use to connect to the internet.
    Reconfigure any security software to allow Apple's servers to pass.
    Useful information for configuring your security software:
    IMPORTANT: iTunes must be allowed to contact Apple using the following ports and servers:
              ▪          port 80
              ▪          port 443
              ▪          phobos.apple.com, deimos3.apple.com, albert.apple.com, gs.apple.com, itunes.apple.com, ax.itunes.apple.com, ax.init.itunes.apple.com, ax.phobos.apple.com.edgesuite.net
    iTunes uses well known ports and these ports may need to be opened for iTunes: 80, 443, 3689, 5297, 5298, 5353, 8000-8999, and 42000-42999.
    iTunes also contacts VeriSign servers during an iPhone restore and activation:
              ▪          evintl-ocsp.verisign.com
              ▪          evsecure-ocsp.verisign.com
    For more information see Update and restore alert messages on iPhone and iPod touch
    Temporarily disable or uninstall your security software
    If the current available version of your security software is incompatible with iTunes, you can disable the security software and test if it is the source of the issue. It might also be necessary to temporarily uninstall security software after making sure you can reinstall it and note any required licenses. A temporary deinstallation might be required because parts of some security software remain active in the background though they appear to be deactivated.
    To reduce any security risks that security software is designed to prevent, consider making sure all files needed to reinstall it are available and disconnect network connections before uninstalling security software. Should this not be possible, such as if a download without active security software is required, that required step should be the only process completed without security software. For assistance in checking your configuration, disabling, or uninstalling your security software, please contact the manufacturer.
    Once disabled or uninstalled, perform only the steps required to verify your issue has been resolved. Complete whatever update, restore, syncing, back up, activation, or other task you were troubleshooting. Once that task is complete, install and configure compatible security software to ensure your PC is protected.
    If it isn't a program or software on the computer contact your Internet Service Provider and/or Router Company to configure or disable the firewall in the router settings.
    To isolate the issue to this you can also try disconnecting the router and plugging your computer directly in to the modem but this does not help for troubleshooting time-out issues directly on any apple mobile devices only if you are syncing or going through iTunes on the computer.

  • ITunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. The network connection timed

    I have never been able to connect to the iTunes store. I always get the error message that "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. The network connection has timed out." I ran the network connectivity diagnostics and the result is pasted below. I connect through a router and I have the firewall in the router turned off. Windows Firwall is turned off and iTunes is a trused site with my other firewall. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    I wouldn't turn off the firewall in the router.
    What security software are you using?
    Norton is particularly prone to blocking iTunes and you have to delete the entry for iTunes in firewal configuration and make a new one with permit all.
    If you ever had Norton, it can block iTunes even if you uninstalled it. Norton is commonly preinstalled on PCs and people tend to forget about it. If you have uninstalled Norton your need to use the Norton removal tool to complete the removal.

    iTunes doesn't think you are an administrator, it shouldn't matter, but are you using an administrator account.
    DO you have parental controls set?
    Do you have Web accelerator software?
