  • Accessing itunes store message?!!

    every time i go on my itunes the accessing itunes store message box pops up but it pops up constantly and its driving me insane it is making it impossible to search anything cause it just keeps popping up what do i do?

    Your problem seems same as mine...I'm still hanging with that problem. And I can't find way to fix that. That pop-up is appear quite rapidly and really annoying me. When I click tune name, try to get tunes informations, try to rename tune, and try to select tune on MUSIC LIBRARY, that pop-up appear about per 1 second and it takes about 10 seconds to finishing access to iTunes store, during that time period, status bar is working. But wait their up and then somehow they are going to available to click, get informations, rename, select about 1 time per 3 times. But copying tune' name is almost impossible during worst situation. But edit information during that time there is nothing to keep me away. This issue may occur once a half hour. Once this is occur, this is going to take about 10 to 20 minuets. Depends on what I try to do, gross time in this issue change flexible really. I also look forward someone who able to fix this problem. Is there nobody get in same problem with iTunes 10.2.1(1) and Mac OS X 10.6.6 like us? And is there nobody able to fix this problem?

  • The iTunes is stuck on the "Accessing iTunes Store"

    I've updated for iTunes 11 and now all the time when I open iTunes it's stuck on the "Accessing iTunes Store".
    What to do so I can use the iTunes store from rhe iTunes in my computer?
    By the way, I have Windows XP.
    Thank you for the help

    With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:
    Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
    (If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.)

  • Constant "accessing itunes store" message

    I wanted to let you know my solution for the constant "accessing itunes store" message. I was able to get rid of it by disabling Ping. Even though I like Ping, I don't need it. I tried the remedy that SandAddict26 suggested, but it didn't work.

    I've fixed mine! From a little help from an apple adviser. You might want to clear your caches before doing this - under iTunes preferences. Open iTunes - go to the top bar, click the 'Store' drop down menu >
    Then click 'De-authorise this Computer' >
    Enter your password etc >
    Then click 'Store' again then click 'Re-authorise this Computer'>
    Enter password etc>
    Restart the Mac>
    Open up iTunes should be fine - worked for me anyway  Good Luck

  • "Accessing iTunes Store" message stuck...

    I just installed the upgrade via Software Update and since... whenever I start iTunes it immediately gives a pop-up window stating 'Accessing iTunes Store' and is seemingly stuck. If I hit cancelled, the 'Canceling' message just gets stuck. On top of all this, I am unable to use iTunes and play any of my media as these stuck messages completely renders iTunes dead. What can I do?

    Well, this problem may have just cost me real money. I was fighting iTunes with this problem last night whilst attempting to browse the iTunes store. I looked at a number of albums, but didn't buy anything. I was doing searches in the store and, as some others have already said, it becomes very difficult to type or browse as the dialog box keeps appearing after you've typed three letters. So I kept trying to type as quickly as I could and hit the 'enter' button on the keyboard to submit the search query.
    So anyway, this morning I got tax invoice from Apple saying that I had somehow purchased some of the songs I was browsing last night. I never went anywhere close to the 'buy' button on any of these things.
    I'm hypothesizing that iTunes misinterpreted me attempting to preform searches and thought I was pressing the 'enter' key to hit the 'buy' button instead of submitting the search query as the stupid dialog box keeps taking focus away from the search box.
    Allow the conspiracy theories to commence.

  • I don't see music and video icons in the iTunes app that I have in my iPad. How can I do to see the complete iTunes store?

    How can I do to see all the icons inthe iTunes store? I only see podcast and u iTunes?

    To buy Apps or to check out the Apps available via your iPad use the App Store App.
    On your iPad your Music is kept in the iPod App and the movies are on the Movie App after you have synced the Music and Movies from iTunes on your computer to your iPad.

  • Re: Itunes 10.3 for windows  I had problems  whereas when I searched for a song I kept getting message "Accessing Itunes Store" when I was already in it I uninstalled and reinstalled latest version  Still having problems

    I had following problem: When I tried to search for a song in the Itunes Store I kept getting message "Accessing Itunes Store" (even though it appeared I was already in the store) Everytime I typed a character in the Search box the Accessing Itunes Store message would pop up
    I was told to uninstall Itunes and Quick time programs and reinstall latest versions, which I have done and now have Itunes 10.3
    I still got same messages so I tried a few things and when I went to my itunes account profile I got message "Requested Resouce not found"
    Don't know where to go from this point.  HELP

    I have the same issue.  I took it the genius bar and called talked to tier 2 phone support. They have standard thing where you uninstall all apple software in a certain order and then reinstall 64bit itunes.  That did nothing (tried it 4 times).
    I've gotten two clues so far.
    One is that at the store if I plug someone else's iphone 4 in then itunes acts the same way. So it is not the phone. Two is tier 2 phone support told me to try syncing it with a fresh user account (an admin one). I did that and itunes was just fine, it did not freeze.
    So there appears to be some conflict with the software, music files, whatever that is on my current user account (also an admin account).  I ran virus and malware detectors and found nothing.  Now I'm going to try putting my music, movies, apps, etc in the new user account and see if the phone will sync then.
    I know its not much but thats where I'm at. I hope it helps.

  • Suddenly, my 1st gen can't access iTunes store.  It sits on "Accessing iTunes Store", with a spinning wheel for days.  I can access the store from my iMac, but not the Apple TV.  Everything is up to date.  What's the deal?

    I can't figure out why my 1st gen appletv cannot access the itunes store.  All newer movies are coming up to view and I can watch previews, but when I go to rent, it stays on the spinning wheel with the Accessing iTunes Store forever.  I've left it going for at least 4 or 5 days.  I can rent from my iMac, but all I have is the headphone, analog, 2-channel audio feed and not the true digital surround.  It sounded much better from the appletv.  HELP!

    Read a bunch of posts from 2008 and 2010.  The only step I found that I hadn't tried was the ol' plug pull.  After that, I got the first movie I tried renting.  ???  At least it works now.

    ITunes won't connect all I get is the "accessing iTunes store......". With the bar scrolling but no connection.

  • How do I change my Ipad to access Itunes store in a different country than the one I usually use and have my account with?

    I usually use the Itunes application on my Ipad in FRence and use the French Itunes store. I am now in Cyprus and after synchronising my Ipad there I now can access the US Itunes Store but my purchases are refused as my account is with the French Itunes store.  How do I either open an account with the US Itunes store or revert to the French Itunes store on my Ipad?

    synchronising is not the problem i think, you need a new US apple id. i only have a malaysian credit card but i have separate ids for US UK and Malaysia. i have travelled to these 3 countries and have home adresses in each country but for buying stuff, I use an iTunes store card instead of a credit card cos its easier. you do not need a credit card that must have billing address from the same country as the iTunes store. So I would suggest if you are currently based in the US go the nearest apple store buy an iTunes store card (i buy in multiples of US$100 with a credit card) and use your current US home address as the US iTunes address.
    so log off your french iTunes store account, create new US apple id for your iTunes store account using your current US address and then redeem your itunes store card and voila you are set to go. (did i mention you will also need a new separate email address for the new apple id) i have one each from gmail, yahoo and hotmail for each separate id.
    the only drawback is that when you want to do an update for the apps that you buy from the different iTunes store, you must log in to that iTunes store account ie if you buy an app from the US store you must log in and update with the US store id and to update the apps from the French store you must log off from the US store and log in again with the french store id.
    hope this makes sense to you.

  • Accessing iTunes Store since 2.1 update

    I have a minor but annoying bug going on since I updated to the 2.1. I will first say that I have never had any significant even moderately significant problems with ATV before. So this is not a big problem but here goes...
    Ever since the new update whenever I click on a movie page like "ALL HD" the ATV first spends about 10 seconds on the "Accessing iTunes Store" spinning logo page. Then the page does load, but I never had this happen before. Before the page would load fairly quickly. It's even more annoying when I'm on that page, move to another menu item (say "Top Movies") and then back to the ALL HD page- even if I was only on the Top Movies page for a few seconds the ATV will still go to the "Accessing iTunes Store" thing.
    Any thoughts? Anyone else experiencing this? Is this just their servers still being overtaxed? BTW I rented a movie last night and it started in about the same time as before update, so not sure what the issues is.

    K-Man, this is not just you. I have a Gigabit wired network and get 7.5 MB/s from my internet provider so I have a big pipe and fast download speeds. This "Accessing Itunes Store" is directly linked to the update and has nothing to do with overhwlmed servers (IMO). I have 3 ATV's in the house and 2 I updated to the latest release...they are having the same issues as you described below. The third ATV I have not updated and it works perfectly and never gives me the message "Accessing iTunes Store" and simply pops the cover art under each category instantly. I will add that a new "bug" is that once my cover art pops under "my movies" on the old firmware, it stayed in place and was instant no matter if I went to You Tube, Music, etc. Under the newest release everytime I go to another category and come back it take a good 3 to 5 seconds to pop that same movie cover art. While this is not a "major" issue like you mentioned, I am pretty peeved as adding new functionality should never be at the cost of "breaking" something. I hope we get a patch to this new firmware in a few days...

  • Problems Accessing iTunes Store

    Hi,
    This is the second Friday in a row that I've had problems accessing the iTunes store to rent or buy movies from my aTV.
    I can browse and view movie details OK but when I click OK to rent or buy a movie I get the twirling "in progress" thingy with the message "Accessing iTunes Store" but it never gets any further.
    Is anybody else having problems?

    Same problem for me, and it didn't happen until I updated to iTunes 8. I've had tons of problems since then, I hope Apple does something about it, they must be aware of the issues, and they're being very slow to resolve it.
    I'm getting the forever "Accessing iTunes Store" message with the spinning thing. Nothing ever happens. I have rebooted, but I agree with the comment that it's a very frustrating way to buy or rent a movie.
