Since upgrading to yosemite, I can't connect to the app store (or icloud).

I have a Macbook air, early 2014.
Since upgrading to Yosemite, can't connect to the App Store (Message: Your device or computer could not be verified. Contact support for assistance. ) or to iCloud ( You can’t sign in at this time. Try signing in again.).
I have another Macbook air (late 2013)  running mavericks that is connecting without any problem. I can also login in two different iPads (iOS 8), one iPhone (iOS 8) and in icloud.com.
Have spent more than one hour with support on the phone. Tried safe boot, login with a different apple id, reseting pram,  running disk utility... No success.
I could upgrade to Yosemite 10.10.1 by restarting without the need to insert the apple id, so I am with the latest version running. Still no success.
Any ideas ?
Many thanks,
Alysson

If you haven't already done so, please connect to a different network, such as a public hotspot, and test. Otherwise, see below.
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

    Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. If the problem isn't solved, ask for further instructions.
    1. Are the current date (including the year) and time shown on your system clock? If not, correct them and test.
    2. Disable any third-party firewall, "security" software, or network filter.
    3. In some versions of OS X, Parental Controls has a bug that prevents loading of secure websites. Turn it off.
    4. The process by which OS X checks the validity of root SSL certificates doesn't work behind the authenticating SOCKS proxies used on some enterprise networks. If applicable, contact your network administrator. The proxy server may need to have its settings changed.

  • HT1688 My husband's iphone can't connect to the App store after he updated to ios.7.  He updated it yesterday and he has had problems since.  He gets a message that the iphone can't connect to the app store and he has internet connection.  Please help.

    My husband's iphone can't connect to the app store after updated his phone to ios.7. and has internet connection.

    Any update will cause problems for a few users. And those users will rush here and post "the sky is falling" stories about their experience. The 99.99% of people who have no problems after an update won't bother to post here; indeed, most of them don't even know ASC exists. FWIW, I had no problems with iOS 7 on my 4S. Your problem is most likely not related to iOS 6, but you should probably update anyway.

  • I can't connect to the app store with my iPad

    I can't connect to the App Store with my iPad. The App Store icon is displaying 3 updates available but when I click on the icon I can't connect.

    HaiTan --
    We're all other Apple customers here, helping each find solutions.  So we can't fix it.
    But try again tomorrow.  All Apple servers are undergoing a huge number of hits.  I think tomorrow or even the next day, all upgrade, update, and activation servers will be in better shape, as well as the App Store.
    Any time millions of people want to do exactly the same thing online, there's always trouble, LOL.

  • TS1368 I've updated my iPad to OS7 and now can't connect to the App Store. It works on my phone and interject connection is fine. Any thoughts?

    I've updated to OS7 on my iPad and now can't connect to the App Store.  The internet is working and it works on my phone, though slow;  is this an App Store problem or a problem with the software upgrade? Am I alone with this issue?

    belive it or not this worked for me:
    “Go to Settings > General > Date and Time > Set Automatically > Off. Set the date one year ahead. Try to update the apps again or press the button from Passbook. If you get an error message, go back to the Settings app and change Date and Time > Set Automatically back to On. Then go back and try again.”
    please note that when you go to app store when you change time to future go through passbook / and close the app then and then wehn you set time back to auto go back to app store through passbook and it will work then close it and then normal app store icon will work form now on
    good luck

    Hi all,
    I hope one will be able to give me more help than the apple support team.
    I've installed the update on my two computers.
    On the IMac it is working fine in several account.
    On my MacBook Pro, the app is stuck on"Can not connect to the app store".
    I've tried the suggestions of the help menu, and from some discussions. I even reinstalled the ocmbo update.

    HI and welcome...
    Download and install the v10.6.6 combo update available here.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1349
    Then repair permissions.
    Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done.

  • Can't connect to the App store, iTunes and software update with MBP 13

    Hi,
    I have a MBP 13 from 2011 and I have a really annoying problem with connecting it to the App Store, iTunes and the software update. It claims that I have no internet/wifi/network, although I clearly have it since I am watching series through Netflix and are on Facebook at the same time. So naturally I started to look in to the firewall and it works fine, since it does not and has never blocked any other Apple products/programs. So I continued looking everywhere in the computer, found nothing. And finally I decided to re-install the MBP and I still cannot connect to neither of these programs.
    I feel that it is really unnecessary to hand the MBP in for service for a problem like this, so I was wondering if there is someone out there who has a solution to this problem? Beacue , as I mentioned earlier, my internet/wifi is working perfectly with everything else, so I really do not understand why App Store, iTunes and the software update does not work.

  • I can't connect to the app store through my wireless connection

    When I try to connect to the app store, it says I need to adjust the settings to allow cellular access even though I'm connected to wifi and other services work fine through the wifi.  I have my settings set so I don't download apps over cellular because it is costly.  I was able to download apps over wifi before upgrading my ios to 8.1.2.  Any ideas what is going on?

    Hey pcobrien2001,
    If you cannot get on the App Store, check some of the setting on your iPhone like the date and time as well as troubleshooting the Wi-Fi connection. Take a look at the article below. I know it is for the iTunes Store but works for the App Store as well.
