Safari for windows and itunes won't connect to the internet

Hi all,
I tried to connect to the itunes store this morning and it does't work. I can't tell you the last time I actually used the itunes store. Months ago at least. I'm not getting an error message or anything. The bar gets less than half way accross then just stops.
Second problem. After finally getting fed up with internet explorer I decided to change my browser to Safari (for windows). It insalled fine and opens ok. But it just won't load any web pages. Again, no error messages or anything. The bar gets part way accross then just stops.
I have tried all of the tips on the apple website and I've also tried all the tips in the forums that have worked for everyone else but not me.
I've added Safari and checked that itunes is allowed in my firewall. Even tried turning my firewall off.
I've checked that I'm not connecting through a proxy server.
I've tried resetting the host file.
All of the software on my computer is up to date.
I've tried flushing the DNS settings.
I've run diagnostics in itunes. (All ok)
My internet explorer runs ok so there is no problem with my internet connection.
I've tried just about everything I can think of and nothing works so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,
Emma

I'm also having this problem for about 3 months now. Tried contacting twice with Apple Support and after a few tips, they just stopped responding. Tried uninstalling the entire Apple Suite (QuickTime, iTunes, Safari, Bonjour, etc.) and still didn't work. APPLE, PLEASE HELP US HERE!
I also ran a diagnostic and found a problem to connect to the Store (sorry for the diagnostic in portuguese... system language):

Apple, once again I ask you to help us on this one. In the next holliday I'll nuy a tablet and a phone to my mother and I'm considering getting an Android. I have a lot of apps in my library now, but I'll not format my PC just to get iTunes and Safari working. Sorry, but if it doesn't work or we don't receive any response, I'll ditch Apple products for good.

  • Itunes won't connect to the internet...HELP!

    itunes won't connect to the internet everytime i try to accsess the itunes store it says there a connection error and that i need to check my connection. I know i am connected to the internet on SPRINT BROADBAND. What can i do?

    I am having the same problem. Upgraded from 8.0.1 to 8.0.2 Everything worked fine before the upgrade. Since the upgrade I can connect to the internet but Itunes will not connect to the itunes store. Network is fine. There is no problem with my firewall. The problem is with upgrade to 8.0.2. I did a system restore to yesterday and itunes is back to 8.0.1 and is running fine. I tried the update again and back to the same old problem. Spent about 6 hours searching for the answer but I have found nothing. If I restore itunes back to 8.0.1 it works and connects to the itunes store. If I upgrade to 8.0.2 itunes will not connect to the itunes store.

  • We use an Airport Extreme in my office, which works fine for me. Occasionally we need to have more than one computer running on it, but for some reason it won't connect to the internet. It says we have internet, but won't connect to wifi. What's going on?

    I use my computer everyday in our office and have no issue connecting to the internet/wifi, but when my boss comes in and tries to connect it doesn't work. It tells her she has internet, but won't connect to the wifi. We've tried a few different tactics(the basic ones I've seen on here), but nothing seems to be working for us. My computer automatically connects to our wifi.
    Just recently the Airport Extreme has started with the blinking amber colored light on the front, which I believe means something is wrong? Can anyone help us figure out what's going on and why we can't get my boss' computer to connect as it should?
    Thank you!

    Here's an update:
    Now the light is not blinking. It's a solid, consistant green. I don't know if it helps to narrow it down or anything, but I just figured I'd mention it.

  • I just bought a new Mac Mini 2.5 and it won't connect to the internet.

    I got my new Mac mini set up but it won't load the connection, System Preferences Network says it's connected and I compared it to my old Mac Mini and everything matches up (IP address matches except last 3 digits).  I open Safari or iTunes and they try to connect but no luck, on Safari the blue bar moves in the address line but stops and nothing happens.  I'm on my old mini now so I I'm not having a problem wiht my provider, oh and I've got an ethernet connection to a Motorola surfboard.  Any idea what is wrong?

  • TS1717 My iTunes won't connect to the internet.

    It is not a proxy issue. I can't download podcasts or go to the store. Everything else works and I can still connect to the web on any browser. Any ideas?

    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 n 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:

  • Macbook Pro died and now won't connect to the internet

    I just got home from college and my Macbook Pro died while I was using it because I couldn't find the charger in time to plug it in (stupid mistake that I never ever let happen usually). After I found it, plugged it in, and started it up again, the date and time were messed up on the computer. I reset them to normal and tried to connect to the internet using my old settings, but it hasn't connected.
    I've tried a lot to try and fix it so far and it still won't connect. Other computers and devices (HP and Dell laptops, iPod touches, PS3) that my family have and use all work and connect to the internet fine.
    I've tried to run the Network Diagnostics and after plugging in all of my settings and information, it says that it can't fix it. Next to it on the left, the Airport, Airport Settings, and ISP are all green...but the Network Settings is yellow and the Internet and Server are red.
    I've deleted my internet settings and tried recreating them and that hasn't worked either. I have also tried the Assist Me portion to make a new connection - no luck there.
    I've also tried resetting the Macbook Pro and the router (an Actiontec router for Verizon FIOS) multiple times and that hasn't worked either.
    I unfortunately can't use Time Machine either because I don't have an external hard-drive and haven't set it up.
    I just don't really know what to do at this point. Hopefully someone can help me out!

    Same problem--hoping to get Apple's attention by throwing my hat in the ring with everybody else.
    Things tried (now approaching 2 weeks of failure):
    Deleting "Airport" Connection, Adding/Restarting/Re-adding/etc.
    Archive Install
    Erase & Install (full reinstall done by Genius)
    Card Replacement
    Bluetooth Replacement
    Zapping the PRAM
    Trying different connections/routers/locations/connection types/etc.
    Visited Genius bar 4 times now.
    Have been without the computer longer than I've been with it.
    Trying to change over from a horrifically bad Dell to a refurb Mac worked once before...though I've come to believe: It's not the refurb, it's not the hardware, it's not the settings, it's not the router, it's not the install, it's not the associated software, it's not the connection, it's not the Super Moon that comes up tomorrow...It's a hardware issue as this has been happening since I opened the computer out of the box, and we have an identical computer running identical programs on an identical network with the identical updates and NO problems whatsoever--I'm assuming the innards may have been cheap'ed out somewhere to save a buck or a connector is faulty after a particular build date?
    Full symptom list (in no particular order):
    Connection Timeout
    Connection Drop
    Not recognizing Airport
    Card Recognition but endless connection time
    IP non-recognition
    Random re-connect
    Indication of connection without transmitting/receiving data
    Frustrated Mac lover trying to convert a Dell user...

  • My Windows 8 PC won't connect to the internet.

    I'm having trouble connecting my pc to my interntet. It had viruses before but its leaned now, and I'm unistalling some programs I don't need. Everytime I go to google chrome or internet explorer it says proxy error and won't connect. I've checked my internet settings and it says connected. I even checked other devices connected to the wifi and they're connected.
    Is it my computer having connectivity problems or am I missing something?

  • Itunes won't connect to the internet. Won't even let me create a new apple id not enter mine to at least edit my account at all.

    I suddenly lost the ability to access my apple account at all. Can't login because it says there is no active connection even tho I can web browse and all normally. Is there a way that is not thru itunes for me to be able to access my account and at least delete or deactivate it? Or better yet a way to fix this? I have tried many of the troubleshooting solutions and nothing yet... Can't access the store not even thru my ipad or iphone....

    I am having the same problem you had back in oct, how did you fix it?  Itunes wont connect to the internet but my computer is connected to the internet.  I have uninstalled and reinstulled.  What next?  How do I get Itunes to connect to my network?

  • Brand new HP Stream 7 won't connect to the internet

    Took out my brand new HP Stream 7 tablet and set it up - and it won't connect to the internet.
    Nothing obvious, but it reports that Wifi hardware can not be found.
    I'm sure it's a driver problem - but since I can't get to the network from the machine - not exactly sure how to proceed (or whether its worth the grief - since I can just package up the box and return it).
    If I go to the Control Panel - Devices and Printers - it shows a Device with my computer name on it, with a warning graphic indicating a problem, and when I click troubleshoot it tells me there is a problem with the Realtek Bluetooth UART Bus driver and offers to reinstall it again, but when I try I just get an error message telling me there's a driver problem and that the issue isn't fixed.
    Have to wonder if anyone actually tests this stuff or whether they just ship it out without worrying about whether or not it works.

    Hello shaw44:
    Have you tried disabling and reenabling the adapter?  Have you run the HP Support Assist which will perform some tests and it also may reset the adapter for you?
    Another option is to uninstall the driver from the control panel on the desktop using Device Manager.   Windows should uninstall the driver from there.   Then, you can click "scan for hardware changes" and it should reinstall the driver. 
    As a last resort, If you were to get a mini USB to USB adapter or a male to female adapter (to use with the charger cord), you could download the file on anther device, transfer it to a USB flash drive and then copy it onto your Stream 7 tablet.
    Hope this helps.

    If you're really using iTunes 7.0 you are very far behind the current version - maybe it is trying to connect to a decomissioned server.  In fact I am kind of surprised it will run on a Macbook Air.  Are you sure you are running iTunes 7?
