TS1470 why cant i connect to the itunes update server with my powerbook? my imac will on  the same internet connection.

why cant my powerbook connect to the itunes server to download an update?

Hello johnbtrey,
I've linked an article that details a number of steps that can be followed in order to restore a connection to the iTunes Store on your PowerBook.
Can't connect to the iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1368
Symptoms
You may be completely unable to access the iTunes Store on your computer or iOS device. You might also see an alert message similar to one of the following:
"Cannot connect to the iTunes Store. An unknown error has occurred."
"We could not complete your iTunes Store request. The iTunes Store is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later."
"iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. Make sure your network connection is active and try again."
This article will guide you through the basic troubleshooting for the iTunes Store.
Cheers,
Allen

  • DataProvider syntax error -why cant 2 components have the same dataProvider

    Hi,
    I am getting the following error:
    Multiple Initializers for property 'dataProvider' (note:
    'dataProvider' is the default property of
    mx.controls.TitleList').
    setup
    i have two components one that is a lineChart the other is a
    titleList. for each I have identified the dataProvider property as
    the same arrayCollection (dataPoints) so my code looks like:
    <mx:LineChart
    id="linechart"
    dataProvider="{ dataPoints }" .... other properties>
    for both components. I had this same error when i tried to
    add a legend component yesterday so it is not limited to just these
    two components. I tried instantiating a variable as a type
    dataProvider, so that it was not being instantiated twice, but no
    such primitive type was available via the auto-complete code
    function. I am not sure what else to try. Thanks,
    Jed

    Greg,
    Thanks again, I figured out the problem. In the mxml I was
    using the category axis tag without having a parent horizontal axis
    tag. So for others here is how a chart needs to be structured.
    correct syntax:
    <LineChart id="linechart1" dataProvider=" {
    myArrayCollection } ">
    <mx:horizontalAxis>
    <!--use the category axis tag to tell the chart what value
    in your array collection you want to use for the x axis-->
    <mx:CategoryAxis categoryField="x"/>
    </mx:horizontalAxis>
    <mx:series>
    <!--Use the line series within a series tag to tell the
    LineChart which y field it should use to draw the line-->
    <mx:LineSeries id="yourFirstYvalues" yField="y"/>
    </mx:series>
    </mx:LineChart>
    <mx:Legend dataProvider = "linechart1" />

  • 2 questions, what do i do when a audio book i purchased is not in purchased menu for re downloading for my account, or why cant i re download the book from iTunes store with out paying for it after support they told me i could.

    what do i do when a audio book i purchased is not in purchased menu for re downloading for my account, or why cant i re download the book from iTunes store with out paying for it after support they told me i could.
    i tried to re download a purchased audio book after i contacted apple support team for iTunes they said it would be ready for re download or they said id have to re download it from iTunes store i cant remember, so i tried both couldn't re download it from purchased menu and the book id have to re download from iTunes store costs money as if i have never purchased what do i do? I don't have any warranty any more or money to purchase another warranty.

    Thank you for your prompt reply.  I have bought 1 MacbookPor 17, 1 Macbook air, 1 MacbookPro 15 , 2 ipads, 3 iphones, and this iMac27 and 2 of iMAC24 or 20 not sure   but I do not recall ever doing what you are telling me in your reply.   When you get a extended car warranty, you don't   sign up for it.. it is just there and is included in the sale.   You don't buy this warranty to use it.. You buy it, in case something happens.   Here a perfect iMAC with minimum 100 hour useage has a dead drive.  That is not normal and I should not have to even be requesting anything since most MFG offer a 3-5 year warranty on their disc drives and I believe that is probably passed on to Apple regardless if an extended warranty is purchased or not.   Customer service dictates a more flexible approach to make sure the lifetime value of a customer is not lost due to some misunderstanding.
    I was in the MacStore that I purchased the unit..and they found and pulled the invoice and confirmed
    the purchase of it in front of me.  I had paid with credit card and fortunately it was there in their system.   I do not also recall recieving any box or paper although most everything I ever get remains sealed.. I am not in the habit of opening anything since I have never encountered any serious issues before.
       I have used my Macbookpro warranty 1 time  and that is all throughout the years I have been investing in Apple equipment.
    I just recieved a letter from the store asking me to get the paper to them so they can register it... I don't recall getting any paper actually.  But I do have several boxes sealed here..  On this iMAC27, it was a hurry up and get it done thing and I don't remember taking anything extra with it.   Regardless,  my request does not seem unreasonable.
    Thank you

  • TS1368 I'm having trouble updating my itunes software on my computer. It all ways says the itunes update server thing is unavailable and try again later.  But I have strong wifi connection and everything is connected?? I cant download apps without this up

    Can someone help me figure out what's wrong with the "itunes update server" connection?! Thanks!

    The best way is to just un-install and then re-install iTunes. Then you will have everything up to date and it should fix the problem.

  • Why cant I connect address book to more than one email account.

    Why cant I connect address book to more than one email account I have 3 but can only do this for my icloud account ??  I am using the correct pass word but still no joy ????

    I bought an iPhone 3G this morning (wahoo!), and can confirm that I have setup both an IMAP (for my home server) and an exchange server (for work).
    Exchange is set to push email (so will get email as it arrives) and IMAP is currently set to manual, and is working like a charm.. With multiple accounts you get to set one as the preferred which it will default to when composing (but you can change the accounts on the compose screen)
    Only minor annoyance is signature is shared between both accounts, other than that am loving it!

  • HT204406 I have subscribed to match on iTunes and organized my music on my Mac Book.  Why does it not appear the same way on my iPad

    I would like my music to appear organized in the same way on my iPad as I have done it on my Mac Book.  (and on my iPhone as well)  Since it is in the cloud, why does it not appear the same way in all devices?

    The purpose of iTunes match is to make your music library available to all of your devices anywhere. It will sync Playlists, but no other type of organization you may have made.
    If you're having trouble, be sure you are logged into the same Apple ID on all devices but be sure to read this article and pay special attention to associating your devices with an Apple ID. There are important restrictions you should know about.

  • TS3694 Mac unable to connect with ITunes Update Server - why?

    Whenever I try to check for updates on iTunes on my Mac, I get this message: iTunes can’t verify the identity of the server “ax.itunes.apple.com”.
    Followed by this: The iTunes update server could not be contacted. Please check your Internet connection, or try again later.

    I downloaded the Microsoft Autoruns package and ran it.  There are no programs in the LSA Providers tab, and Apple's Bonjour is the only program in the Winsock Providers tab.  I also did the "netsh winsock reset" and rebooted.  It didn't fix the problem.  Any more ideas?
