Unable to connect to iTunes after iOS 6.0.1 update on iPad 3

After I updated the other day I can no longer get new apps or update my current apps.  I keep getting a message saying I cannot connect to iTunes. I have tried some solutions that I found (moving the date to 2013 & updating my banking info on iTunes) but nothing works.  I am connected to the Internet (I posted this on my iPad).  Any solutions out there or do I need to call apple?

You can try these suggestions and see if any work for you. The first one is definitely an iOS 6 only suggestion.
Settings>Privacy>Location Services>System Services (swipe to the bottom of the page to find this)>Location Based iAds>Off.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try again.
Even though you are connected to the Internet, it might help if you reboot your router anyway. Unplug it for about 30 seconds and thenlug it in again.

  • IPhone will not connect to iTunes after ios 7.1.2 update

    I was updating my iPhone 4s to the new software update (ios 7.1.2) and my computer fell asleep. My iPhone now is stuck on the connect to iTunes screen and when I plug it into my PC iTunes will not connect to it.
    I've tried putting it into recovery mode (won't allow me to slide to power off), and I've tried iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    I've also tried rebooting my computer, updating iTunes and enter DFU and Recovery modes
    When plugged in my device manager recognizes that an apple device is plugged in that is in recovery mode....
    I'm trying to back up my phone while it has the most recent software so I can transfer it onto my new 5s
    Please help!!
    iPhone 4s
    Windows 7

    You've tried the following procedure?
    Turn your device off and connect your cable to the computer, but not the device just yet. Start up iTunes. Now, hold down the home button on your device and plug it in to the cable - don't let go of the button until iTunes tells you it's detected a device in recovery mode. Now you can restore to factory settings.
    If this still doesn't work, you should make an appointment at the Genius Bar to have your device evaluated.

  • Receive the message "unable to connect to itunes store" when trying to install updates for my apps

    trying to install updates available for a number of app on my phon and keep getting the same message "unable to connect to itunes store"............

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • TS1424 Whenever I try to update an app or download a new one I get an error message stating "unable to connect to iTunes"....I have reset my iPad and router but still get the error message

    Whenever I try to update any apps or download a new one I get the following error message "unable to connect to iTunes". I have reset my iPad and router and also done the same with my iPod but get the same issue.....need some support please?

    There are a number of threads from other people reporting the same iTunes connection issue, it looks like there might be a problem at Apple's end - but you could try logging out of your account on the iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store and then log back in and see if it then works, but it probably won't until Apple's fixed it

  • My iphone wont connect to itunes after ios 7.0 update. Help!

    I can not set up any of my apps after the new update. It keeps telling me to connect to itunes to enable push notifications. The message keeps popping up so I can not even use the app without having the push notifications enabled. I also am unable to activate my imessages. How can I fix this problem? Its rather annoying.

    Ok this is how I fixed this. Apparently iTunes uses Safari.
    Go to Settings -> Safari -> and Clear Cookies and Data and also Clear History - scroll down to see those settings.
    Set Block Cookies to either "from third parties and advertisers" or "Never" (you choose which one)
    In Advanced (scroll down its the last setting) make sure JavaScript in ON
    Here  is the last step I had to make to fix it - which may not apply to you.  Some time ago I changed my primary email for apple. I noticed it was  asking me to enter the password for the secondary email.
    I  went into iTunes and App Store, tapped my Apple Id and then Sign Out. I  then resigned in using my primary Apple email and password.
    Just to make sure, I turned the phone off and on, but honestly this may be optional.
    I am now working again.
    I hope this helps you.

  • Iphone 5 stuck on connect to itunes after iOS 6.1 update

    I connected my iphone to itunes to download a few songs and the iOS 6.1 update.  I come back to the phone 15min later and itunes says the download was incomplete it is stuck on the connect to itunes screen.I try to restore the phone, but the device is not recognized in itunes.  I tried to turn off the phone but it keeps on turning back to the connect to itunes screen.  Whenever I dissconnect the usb cable to my windows laptop, i hear this notification sound, but there is no pop up thing.  The iphone is also not recognized on the my computor tab.  This is extreemly frustrating, and I would like to avoid going to the apple store.
    Thanks

  • My IPhone will not connect to itunes after the new 11.1 update.

    The other day I updated Itunes to 11.1. After doing so my Iphone would not connect to itunes, although it is being recognized by my computer. I have done everything that has been suggested to other users with no luck. Help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hey TheBurntApple,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with your iPhone connecting to iTunes for Windows. While you may have already attempted most of the steps in this article, I wished to provide it to you just in case something was omitted.

  • Iphone 4s won't sync to itunes after iOS 6.0.1 update

    After updating my iphone 4s to the iOS 6.0.1, my phone will no longer sync to my computer's itunes. It states The iPhone cannot be used because it requires iTunes version 10.6.3 or later. Go to www.itunes.com to download the latest version of iTunes. However my irunes is updated to the most recent update (itunes 11) and this problem still remains. The iphone 4s is also updated on any new software.

    Remove and reinstall iTunes.

  • I receive error message "Unable to connect to iTunes store" when trying to download updates to my iPhone4. No problems buying new apps.

    I have just started receiving the message "Cannot connect to iTunes store" when I attempt to download upgrades to previously purchased apps. However, I have no problem buying new apps from the iTunes store. No issues with wifi or connectivity.  Does anyone have any ideas or fixes? Thanks.

    1st. Turn off your phone and back on.
    if that does not work, do a reset by holding the on/off button and the home button until the Apple logo comes on.

  • Email Account Problems after iOS 5.0.1 update on iPad 2 & iPhone 4

    After finishing the iOS 5.0.1 update - I have noticed none of my email accounts are working (i.e. Error saying Incorrent Password or Username).
    I have deleted the associated accounts and added them once again, verifying both username and passwords as well and now it will NOT verify any accounts on both. Still no luck on both devices.
    Odd that both devices email accounts stop working after the new update?
    Anyone know of a fix/problem?
    Thanks!

    Same problem, this happens with any Safari site that requires a user name and password to log in ... frustrating!  I have also posted this issue and will be stopping by Apple on my way home ... I'll let you know what I find out.

  • Stuck in recovery, unable to conect to itunes after ios 8,1 update

    I have a 5th gen ipod touch, i decided to try and update it to ios 8.1 but it got stuck in recovery mode (the itunes usb icon)
    after trying to reconect it to my itunes the laptop knows its plugged in but itunes wont conect to the device so i cant start up the recovery
    i have tried the DFU function and again nothing happens
    further more i try the restore on a different machine which goes fine till i attempt to update and restore where i get error 3014
    ive about had it now cause i dont know what to do.

    I had the same problem, except that my messages weren't going through at all (the red-colored "not delivered" exclamation message showed). I resolved it by turning on your cellular data. It does not matter if you have Wi-Fi on/off. This should work assuming you also have MMS and Group Messaging on under the Messages setting. Hopefully this works for you.

  • Can't connect to iTunes after iOS 6 upgrade

    I upgraded my iPod touch gen 4 to iOS 6 and upon restart of the device - I get a persistant screen on the device that is telling me to conneect to iTunes (image of cable connector with arrow pointing to the iTunes icon)
    When I launch iTunes (yes - it is the latest version for Windows 7, I upgraded before I did the iOS6 update) it does not show my device as connected...
    I've tried powering off the device and then re-starting it, but it just shows the apple logo for a few seconds before it switches back to displaying the screen I've described above.
    Thoughts?
    Thanks in advance!

    Thanks trrlighting and lllaass - two paths to the same steps...
    To quote Airplane... No dice, Chicago...
    Did all the steps, including the full un-install and re-install, as well as doing selective startup to resolve conflicts... Any other thoughts?
    Anyone? Beuller... Beuller... Beuller?

  • Battery life greatly decreased after ios 5.0.1 update on iPad 2 and iPhone 4S

    Really disappointing considering my iPad 2 battery life used to be great, lasting up to a week with no recharge necessary.  Now my iPad battery life drops 1% every few minutes of casual use.
    My iPhone 4S battery life under ios 5.0 used to be decent and could hold the charge well when idle only losing 1% every few hours as long as it was just sleeping.  Now I am losing 10 - 15% every few hours when it is just sleeping.  When I surf the net, I lose 1% each minute! This is with pretty much every battery wasting feature turned off except Siri.
    I'm not sure how Apple managed to exacerbate a problem affecting tens of millions of people around the world with a fix that they've had weeks to test.  I mean they could've just emailed me and asked me to test it before they released it to the public, I could've told you within a few minutes that it didn't work.
    Apple consistenly have problems with each new iPhone release.  They just can't seem to get it 100% right.  The camera, antenna and speed have vastly improved over the iPhone 4, but arguably the most important feature has taken a nose dive in quality.  I can't believe they marketed this phone as having IMPROVED battery life?  I don't think one person will agree that that is an accurate statement.

    Do you have wifi syncing turned on? Is your itunes always open?
    There is a glitch with the iPad where, as long and anytime iTunes is open, it'll sync...like once an hour or some such rate.
    Originally the wifi syncing was only supposed to take place if the device is plugged into power, but that's not the case. If I have my iTunes open my iPad will try to sync almost continuously.
    So check your wifi sync and iTunes settings (my iTunes used to be set to open automatically when the device is connected, I had to change it to only open when I do it manually because in the course of an evening's surfing my iPad opened my iTunes and started to sync three different times until I turned it off)
    If you have iCloud syncing enabled that may also be contributing to your battery issues. I don't sync over iCloud, I tried it but after it ate all my contacts, I stopped using it. However, if the same glitch is present, the device trying to continually sync even when not plugged into power, that could also be part of your drain.
