This item is temporarily unavailable. please try again later

I have had a large iTunes library for years. switched many different computers through the years. I buy my first Mac and this is the error that pops up when i try to download my library. I have tried to download to external hard drive and internal hard drive.
I have read all the previous posts to try and determine how to best fix this.
i tried the safari preferences reset of website data and blocking cookies... which by the way doesn't allow you to log in to iTunes it appears.
and i have reset my cache and warnings in iTunes as well. Does anyone have any more ideas? Not feeling the love for my new Mac right now. Thank You in advance for any ideas.

I had a similar issue on a used macbook air that I purchased and was attempting to reinstall the OS X from the partition. The issue was the partition was referencing a BETA version of yosemite that could not be downloaded any longer. You may have the same issue. The solution is an internet recovery process. You start the mac and then immediately press command+option+R at the same time. This should take you to a screen with a spinning globe and it will start this internet recovery process. My understanding is it downloads the original partition recovery file for your specific machine. In my instance it downloaded mountain lion. Once this is complete I went to disk utilities and first re-erased the Mac SSD and then performed the OS X re-install from the recovery partition. It will not ask for any sign in with your apple ID. It will simply install the original OS X that came with your machine. You will then go through the setup process to establish the mac as your machine or install from backup which ever you choose. Once that is done you can do the free upgrade to the latest OS X, in my case yosemite. Hope this helps.

Everytime i try to to reinstall OS X Moutain Lion this is what it tells me. Been stuck here for over a week now. I called Apple but not much they can do for me over the phone.. someone please help me, really need my macbook pro..Thank you in advance

Not sure how you are trying to reinstall OS X.
You can reinstall Mountain Lion using OS X Recovery
Startup your Mac while holding down the Command + R keys. From there you should be able to reinstall OS X.

TS1424 I am getting a "your account is temporarily unavailable, please try again later" message when trying to download an app?

When trying to download a new app, I get a "account temporarily unavailable, please try again later" message. Any ideas?

Welcome to the Apple community.
There seems to be rather more of this type of issue being reported currently, than there normally is, there may well be a problem with the servers. I would be inclined to wait a while, then try again later.

Update on my previous post.
iTunes showed I was logged in, displaying my Apple ID on the screen (left bar where it normally is) but I couldn't access my account, with the same error message coming up again! (seriously this is total BS)
I deleted EVERYTHING under
C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes
or YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes
Some people have had success only deleting everything in the cookies folder
C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\Cookies
Thank you LadyBytes

Temporarily Unavailable - Please Try Again Later

I've attempted to purchase a song (Get Aboard - Valiant Hearts: The Great War) off of the ITunes Store and I keep getting a message saying "this item is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later." I've tried to purchase this item several times but I still receive the same message. Is there anything I can do to solve this problem or should I just wait and try again later?

Greetings,
It's me again (barefootrunner). I've changed accounts to my HP-approved one, hence the new name.
I was able to reproduce this behavior on a printer sitting at my desk, and got a similar result. I could navigate the menus and then received a "Temporarily unavailable. Please try again later" message when I tried to actually print the job I had selected. I think the printer/server get into a bad state with respect to each other. Here's what I did that solved the problem:
1. Restore factory defaults (Setup menu -> Service -> Restore defaults)
2. Removed web services (Setup menu -> Web Services menu -> Remove Web Services)
3. Reenabled web services (Setup menu -> Web Services menu -> Enable Web Services)
4. Once the Information Sheet is printed, use the e-mail address to register again with ePrint center.
(These instructions may differ slightly for different models. I'm using an HP LaserJet CM1415fnw.)
I'd like to reiterate that re-registering for Web Services was not sufficient to fix this behavior. Unfortunately, I had to restore defaults in order to get ePrint working again. Sorry for the inconvenience... I understand that this is really frustrating. This is not the expected mode of operation. Hopefully, you won't have to do it again.
I am an HP employee.

TS1424 Its says iTunes Store is temporarily unavailable.Please try again later.

It also says it when i try to buy something.

Turns out I had the same issue on WIndows (which I do not use a lot ...°.
Here is how I solved it on Windows 7:
- Quit iTunes (and Safari if you have it)
- Openan Explorer window ("My Computer" for example)
- Well hidden in the upper bar under "Organize" choose "Folder and search options"
- In the "view" tab, make sure that "Show hidden files, folders and drives" is checked and click OK
- Navigate to C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\Cookies or YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\Cookies if that is easier
- Delete everything in that folder
- (I am not sure this is necessary) you might want to also trash items in the YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\Cookies folder
- Launch iTunes
- Connect to your iTunes account
- Smile :-)

"Service is temporarily unavailable, please try again later"

I've been trying to log in for about an hour or two now and all I keep getting is that message. I changed my password, nothing. Not sure what I should do. I'm about to restart my computer to see if that will work.
Anyone know what to do or has anyone had this problem as well? I can't find anything online about it.

Ok, im sorry, shouldve waited a bit... i have resolved the problem by manually editing the prefs file. My issue at least is caused by being behind a company proxy. * i went here: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Spotify (WINDOWS 8)* opened the file 'prefs' in notepad (File was completely empty for me)* added these lines: network.proxy.addr="proxy.XXXXX.com:8080@https"network.proxy.mode=2network.proxy.user="COMPANY EMAIL ADDRESS"network.proxy.pass="COMPANY ACCOUNT PASSWORD" Obviously you need to know your company's proxy address and once you add your email address it should log in.It aint pretty though... as the proxy is loaded as HTTPS, there is little or no artwork in Spotify.... There used to be a way round this by changing the prefs file again... (Change the HTTPS to HTTP) but due to the changes in proxy log on in this version, this no longer works... So we have music, just 0 colour in the desktop app... still mildly annoying :)

TS3297 I have been getting the "the itunes store is temporarily unavailable - please try again later" on my PC for over a week.

I have not been able to log-in on my pc for over a week. I have made sure my software is updated, unistalled and reinstalled and checked my windows updates... Help!!

Turns out it is was because my password needed to be updated to include a capital letter and number!!!

Xcode. This item temporarily unavailable. Try again later.

I installed Yosemite yesterday and noticed a blank icon in my Launchpad where Xcode used to be. Xcode was working properly at one time but it looks like I might have paused one of my previous installations for some reason. When I tried to resume the installation, it says "This item is temporarily unavailable. Try again later." I tried moving Xcode to my trash and emptying the trash but still the same thing. I even tried deleting the Xcode file in my Preferences but still the same thing.

I am not thinking that at all. I have described the situation on a Mac exactly as Launchpad functions.
Notice that I said click & hold, not tap & hold. You must use a mouse or trackpad to follow my instructions, not a finger.

When I try to enter codes for digital movie downloads it tells me "code redemption is temporarily unavailable. Try again later." Customer support has been no help. Anyone else have this problem?

Am sick of going back and forth with what has turned out to be worthless customer support. Have sent them so much info and pictures, no help. All they do is send me links for instructions on how to redeem the codes. I know how to redeem, I have redeemed at least 50 codes. To them I am obviously an idiot though. To me it seems to be a problem on their end, but can't get an answer from them on why it is telling me code redemption is unavailable. Please help! Anybody!

Confirming my suspicions with every passing hour. Support on this forum is non-existent like the support from Apple support. But, you got my money now... why would you care?
