TS1368 Extremely frustrated with error message when trying to download apps and updates. HELP please!

I have been trying to download a couple of apps and keep getting the message "cannot connect to iTunes." This is nonsense because I can access both the app store and iTunes directly. I've downloaded other items today with no problem. Now all of a sudden I'm getting this error whenever I try to download an app or update an existing one. And it doesn't help that that it practically takes an act of congress to access a human being to ask a simple question. I would very much appreciate any help I can get in resolving this issue. I have already tried rebooting my iPad and my software is up to date. Haven't tried it with my iPhone yet. Thanks.

You can't use Safari to download iPad apps. Only use iTunes/App Store.

  • "unknown error" message when trying to download apps on my iPod touch

    Today Ive been trying to download multiple apps but keep receiving an "unknown error" message I've tried restarting my iPod but that didn't help

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

  • Security code is invalid error message when trying to download app update

    When i attempt to download an app update on my IPhone 4, the phone gives me a "sign in required" message and then brings me to my billing information.  It then states my security code is invalid but it isnt.......

    Also, make sure your billing address is exactly correct.  iTune's accounts seem to be very sensitive about this.

  • Error code 1004 keeps coming up on my iPhone 4 when trying to download apps and music through wifi

    My iPhone 4 keeps coming up with error 1004 when trying to download apps and music via wifi

    Tks heaps for that, had a look at Store and ITunes sections, not overly helpful unless I am missing something.
    My issue is that on my computer she would update her iPhone with Software updates via iTunes.
    I have gone and deleted her backups that were still sitting on there.
    If I want to update my Apps on my iPhone when due her Apple ID and password request will come up as an option to use that account if I knew the password and it's synced from my Computer even though she has been gone 7 months now. Is it a syncing issue or is her Apple ID stored in my iTunes backups somehow and keeps coming back? Do I need to de-authorize her account from my Computer?

  • Error message when trying to download iCloud to my Vista PC

    I am getting the following error message when trying to download iCloud to my Vista PC. "Cannot download iCloudSetup.ext from supportdownload.apple.com. The connection with the server was reset.

    I would suggest you to run the fix it tool from the link mentioned below and then check if you can install the softwares.
    http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall (applicable only for 64 bit operating system)
    Also follow these steps before you proceed with the installation of ITunes.
    Download and install:
    Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package ATL Security Update
    http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=766a6af7-ec73-40ff-b072 -9112bab119c2&displaylang=en#filelist
    Also, make sure that you have iTunes installer installed on your computer or else download and install it.
    Uninstall all iTunes software from Program and features.
    a)    Click Start button, click Control Panel, click Programs, and then click Programs and Features.
    b)    Select  the program, and then click Uninstall.
    c)    Uninstall or change a program

  • I get the following error message when trying to download ITunes on my computer running Windows XP - Error writing to file: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple Application Support\CFNetwork.dll

    I get the following error message when trying to download ITunes on my computer running Windows XP - Error writing to file: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple Application Support\CFNetwork.dll

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

  • I keep getting an error message when trying to download i tunes. It says it's looking for MSVCR80.dll and I find it on my computer so I don't know what else to do. Any suggestions?

    I keep getting an error message when trying to download itunes. It says it can't find "msvcr80.dll, but when I search for it on my computer it is there. My itunes was working just fine before I got the message to download the latest upgrade. I've not had any problems doing that before now, so don't really know what to do.

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • HT5731 Have 55GB available, but get error message when trying to download movie to add storage

    Have 55GB available, but get error message when trying to download movie to add storage

    Go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage. Let all of the apps load in the window. You can see how much storage you have used and how much you have left. You will need about twice the size of the download of free storage in order to be able to download the movie. Also, the iOS will not let you use every bit of available storage on the device.
    You can delete content in there if needed, but if you sync with iTunes it's a good idea to transfer purchased into iTunes and backup your iPad before you delete content. If you use iCloud only, backup with iCloud before you delete any content.

    These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iTunes trouble cleaned up en passant.
    Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing iTunes again. Does it go through this time for you?
    If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? (For example, 8007000B.)
