Slow performance of iTunes store with TV show favorites?

I am wondering if anyone else has been seeing performance problems with the Apple TV when using the iTunes store and TV show favorites? I am having issues with the iTunes store account when I log into my 'Favorites' for TV programs. It takes a LONG time to log in and bring up my favorites list (like 2 minutes sometimes!), and sometimes it will fail and say the iTunes store is not available.
Yet browsing around the store without loading my favorites everything is peachy. Usually once I get into the favorites and load a show, it will play, although sometimes it thinks I have not purchased an episode when I have a season pass, and ask me to purchase it. If I click purchase, it tells me it is already purchased and would I like to download it, and then it plays.
I have a lot of shows in my favorites list now, so I think the system is getting overloaded or something and is having issues due to the number of shows I have in my favorites list? It was always way faster when I had less shows in my favorites list.
Also, when I start having connection errors if I restart my Apple TV it usually works much better (but still slow). Rebooting my router makes not difference (Apple Airport Extreme) and both of my Apple TV's exhibit the same problems in the bedroom or living room.
None of this is running on WiFi either; it is all hard cabled.
Honestly I think the iTunes store servers are getting overloaded when trying to deal with customer accounts that have a lot of favorites in the cloud? Has anyone else been experiencing the same problem?

I would guess that the Singapore itunes store does not sell these things.  If they did, then you would see them.

    Unfortunately Pakistan is one of those countries where media isn't available from iTunes - when that might change we won't know (we are fellow users on here) until if/when Apple announce something.
    Are there other music purchase download sites available there ? Or you can copy your CDs via your computer's iTunes and sync them to your phone

    I am using a Dell Vostro 3400, with 8 GB RAM, Windows 7 64bit Ultimate OS. ITunes version 10.5? (Latest)
    What I have tried:
    Uninstalled iTunes,
    Removed firewall and protection.
    Re-installed iTunes 64bit (still get the same issue)
    Restarted firewall, added apple.com etc.
    I have created a new user profile to no vail.
    Still the same issue. I can access using my iPod 

    I am having the same problem ever since I upgraded.  Have received four emails from Apple support on the
    issue and nothing has worked.  Unloaded 10.5 and went back to 10.3 which worked fine but it would not allow
    me to sync my Iphone with the ios 5 upgrade.  Went back to 10.5 and sometimes get exactly what you do when
    I try an access the store.  It looks like something is clearly missing.  Have done just about everything I have seen
    on threads but nothing works.  Really need help.

  • HT201272 i can't see my purchased apps in itunes on new ipad when I go into the itunes store. It shows nothing. I haven't changed my ID or country of purchase. It shows that I would have to rebuy them when I go into the store.

    i can't see my purchased apps in itunes on new ipad mini. when I go into the itunes store. It shows nothing. I haven't changed my ID or country of purchase. It shows that I would have to rebuy them when I go into the store. Is there something in settings on Itunes I need to change? I do not have cloud.

    Yes I am looking in the app store. When I look in Itunes on my computer and look at purchased apps it is there. And when I go on my other device and look at apps purchased all apps are there.
    The new ipad doesn't show any apps purchased when I click on apps purchased and when I search the app store it doesn't show it is purchased. I am wondering if I am just missing something...need to turn something on in options or something. Never had this problem with previous ipad when I set it up.

  • Itunes store does not show on ipad when i launch app its pages are blank

    itunes store does not show on ipad when i launch app its pages are blank

    This indicates there might be an issue with the time configuration on the device.
    Go to Settings > General > Date and time. See if Set automatically is switched to on. If so, switch to off and ensure you set date, time and time zone manually and correctly.
    Power off the device (hold sleep button for four seconds, then slide to power off), then power back on.
    If issue persists, switch Set automatically back to on, and if not resolved then restore the device.

    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

  • Rented movie stopped half way through,"Accessing itunes store" with revolving loader symbol

    FIrst nite with ATV2, it suddenly stopped working, didnt recognize my password, and ultimately i had to change my password. Then went to bed and tried again this morning. It worked.
    Second nite with ATV2, we rented a movie. 2/3 of way through movie, the loading circle appeared. cannot access the movie, though it recognizes that we have 22 hrs left on the movie.  cannot access other itunes content.
    --turned ATV off and back on--didnt work
    --checked network--no problems
    --reset ATV2--still cannot see anything but loading circle.
    Tried to see a tv show we'd watched earlier today. "accessing itunes store" with the loading circle appeared.
    HELP?
    I have spent more hours trying to make the device work than enjoying it.
    Thinking that I want to return this product. it works like a PC device.
    If you dont know how to fix it, can you tell me,
    HOW do i return it?

    are you guys watching TV late at night. I've noticed that the shows stop working at around 11 to 11.30 pm pacific time. I suppose that iTunes updates their catalogue to include the latest shows that are new and cleared for sale after the night's TV schedule. I think it's poor iTunes judgement to do that. Most people watch TV at night. They should update their catalogue some time in the morning hours.
    I usually just unplug my apple TV, restart and then wait for a while to make it work.
    If you guys get stuck because you put the show on pause then the remedy is to turn the screen saver off. Switch it to never because then when you pause and iTunes server goes out you don't have to re-authorize the show to continue watching it. That's if you purchased and the show was sownloaded to your apple TV

  • Itunes Store does not show lastest podcast but it downloaded

    So i am pretty much and stuck on this issue. I have seen a couple of other post but no answers. Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction.
    The issue is the Itunes store does not show the last episode by it can still be downloaded and played.
    The latest episode the Itunes store shows is 10/17/10 however it has been updated weekly.
    Link to Itunes:

    I have used a couple of feed validaters and nothing seems wrong to me. Can anyone find an issue i have not looked at? Should i just try to contact Apple Support?
    Thanks,
    Bob

    The iTunes Store caches the feed and checks periodically to see if it's been updated, so there is a delay before new episodes appear: however it's usually around 2 days, not almost a month. When subscribing the iTunes application reads the feed directly, so there is no delay.
    Something is preventing the Store from updating the feed. This can happen if there is some oddity in the feed which throws the Store but not the application - usually a strange character of some sort. I looked for something like that in the first episode not to appear in the Store, but there is nothing odd there: you've used dots in the filename of your mp3 file and this isn't a good idea, but in fact doesn't seem to be causing a problem since some earlier episodes do the same thing. Ideally you shouldn't use dots in a URL.
    The filename for the episode of 28 November includes the code %3A - this is the code for a colon - you definitely shouldn't have a colon in a filename. However since this episode comes later than several others which haven't appeared it may not be fatal - but it's not a good idea.
    The other oddity is that you have two 'title' tags in the top section of your feed, both empty. You did have a title once, as it shows in the Store, but you've removed it at some point so that the feed is not titled. I don't know whether this is sufficient to prevent the Store from updating, but you should definitely replace the title - I see you are using Podcast Maker, so you need to enter the title there and republish - and see whether that helps.

  • My itunes store isn't showing up

    My library and everything is fine, but for some reason my itunes store won't show up and it says it's loaded completely.

    Hi, Nmanning47. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    Sometimes a simple power cycling of the computer can resolve this issue.  Next I would recommend making sure iTunes and your system is updated to the current version.  If this does not resolve the issue try resetting Safari by opening this program and in the Menu Bar choose Safari > Reset Safari.  Make sure to test the results after processing each step.  If the issue persists, try each step in the article below.

  • My phone keep asking to login itune store with my previous email id for updates

    Dear Sir

    Hi zubair11111,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    The information below may be able to answer your questions about how to change your Apple ID. 
    Apple ID: Changing your Apple ID
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5621
    Before you change your Apple ID:
    Sign out of all Apple features and services that you use with your current Apple ID.
    Make sure that the email address you want to use for your Apple ID meets these conditions:
    The email address is one that you use regularly, because it will be the primary email address for your Apple ID.
    The email address is not associated with any other Apple ID.
    The email address is not an iCloud email address, which is already an Apple ID. iCloud email addresses end with @icloud.com, @me.com, or @mac.com.
    Using your Apple ID for Apple services
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4895
    Can I merge multiple Apple IDs into one?

    You cannot merge two or more Apple IDs into a single one. You can, however, use one Apple ID for iCloud services and another Apple ID for Store purchases (including iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match). See “Using one Apple ID for iCloud and a different Apple ID for Store Purchases” above for details.
    I have purchased music, apps, or books with multiple Apple IDs. How can I get all of this content onto my iOS device?

    First, you need to copy all of your purchased content so it is on the same Mac or PC with iTunes. This computer should be the one you sync your device with. For more information on how to move your content, see these articles:
    Mac:  iTunes for Mac: How to copy purchases between computers
    PC:  iTunes for Windows: How to copy purchases between computers
    Next, authorize your computer to play content with each Apple ID in iTunes. Once your computer is authorized for all your content, it can be synced to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
    I hope this information helps ....

  • When I try to connect to App Store,I get an error message stating "cannot connect to iTunes Store.  I show 3 bars on wifi connection

    When I try to connect to App Store, I receive an error message stating, "cannot connect to iTunes Store.  I show 3 bars on my wifi connection?  Can someone help...why if I tap App store, does a iTune error message display?

    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.

  • My iTunes Store Isn't Showing Newest Items Posted

    My iTunes store is not showing the latest products posted. My roommate went onto her iTunes and all the new stuff was showing on hers. Anyone know why my iTunes is not showing updated posts? I have the current version of iTunes. Any help would be great.

    That's odd. Have you tried clicking on something on the iTunes Store, and then clicking on the home icon, to refresh the iTunes Store home page?

    iTunes is a program on your computer, it is not "the Internet".  The fact that the program runs has no bearing on Internet connectivity.
    Maybe if a little more information was supplied, like version of the Operating system on the computer and version of iTunes, then a little more assistance could be provided.
