Unable to Make Purchases or Add Items to Cart After iTunes 7.6 Upgrade

After upgrading to iTunes 7.6, I'm unable to purchase anything (either by adding to my cart or using the 1-click purchase), nor am I able to subscribe to any podcasts. If I wait long enough I get the following HTTP error: "Could not add an item to your cart. An unknown error occurred (414). There was an error in the iTunes Store. Please try again later."
This happened last night after upgrading and continues this morning. Unfortunately, I applied all four updates available via Software Update, so I don't know if it was iTunes 7.6, QuickTime, or something else.
netstat reports that I have the following HTTPS connection:
Active Internet connections (including servers)
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address (state)
tcp4 0 8354 mountcastle-imac.50246 phobos.apple.com.https ESTABLISHED
Using tcpdump, I'm definitely seeing traffic between my computer and phobos.apple.com, but since it's using HTTPS it's all encrypted.
This is consistent across all of my computers (unfortunately, I upgraded all of them at the same time) which are all running Leopard (10.5.1).

I've had the same 5002 error for 3 days: "We could not complete your iTunes Store request. An unknown error occurred (5002). There was an error in the iTunes Store. Please try again later."
However, I WAS able to purchase songs after I changed Preferences from Shopping Cart option to 1-Click Purchase.
I know that my Shopping Cart is FULL - (basically used as a pending wish list). Perhaps this is one problem with the iTunes Store. Fortunately, I printed a list of my Shopping Cart several weeks ago.
I'm going to try deleting and re-installing. Any more ideas would be welcome.

  • Unable to make purchases with my new Mac in iTunes Store.

    I am unable to make purchases with my new Mac in iTunes Store.
    I can buy with  my iPhone or my company lap-top (Windows) without any problems. Only with my brand new MacBook Pro it is impossible.
    When I try to authorize my Mac, sure dialog window appears and I give my ID and password. Then I get error message: "There was an error storing your authorization information on this computer. The required file was not found or has a permissions error. Correct this permissions problem and try again, or deauthorize this computer if the permissions cannot be changed." The same message I get, when I try to deauthorize.
    If I try to buy anything (pushing button "Buy"), then I get following error message:
    "iTunes couldn`t download your purchase. You don`t have write access for your iTunes Media folder or a folder within it. Change permissions (in the Finder) and then choose Store--Check for available downloads".
    But I have such a permission!!! I can see it!!!
    I have even made so, that "everyone" and "staff" also  have permission "read and write" in folder iTunes and all subfolders.! :))
    When I ask for "available downloads" immediately I get the same answer: " iTunes couldn`t download your purchase. You don`t have write access for your iTunes Media folder or a folder within it. Change permissions (in the Finder) and then choose Store--Check for available downloads"
    I have done:
    1. I have used the Terminal to correct the permissions (in Finder it looked correct anyway).                    -          NO Result.
    2. With Disk Utility I have verified and repaired Disk permissions. (There were approx. 10-12 incorrect values and 3 of them  concerned iTunes and other - Jawa ).           -           NO Result.
    3. I have moved all iTunes files in Thrash and installed iTunes again (previously downloaded from App Store ).                    -          No Result.
    4. I have verified Disk permissions with Disk Utility again. There was nothing wrong, but in spite of this I have pushed the button "Repair Disc Permissions".          -          NO Result.
    5. New installation of iTunes again.           -          No Result.
    Can it be, that the reason of a problem are not correct transferred data from my old MacBook?

    with my new Mac
    You have a warranty.  Take advantage of it!  Call tech support or call the iTunes store.

  • I forgot my answers to security questions. I could not change and I am unable to make purchases at the Apple store. What do I do?

    I forgot my answers to security questions. I could not change and I am unable to make purchases at the Apple store. What do I do?

    Go to http://appleid.apple.com and select "Manage your account". Log in with your Apple ID and password, then select Password and Security from the left column.
    You need to know the answers to your existing questions to reset them. If you don't remember your answers, there may be a link on that page where you can have a reset email send to your Rescue email address. This will not appear if you have not provided a Rescue email address, and may not appear even if you did.
    If there does not seem to be any way to reset your security questions, contact iTunes Support here: http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ They will respond within a business day. Be sure to check your spam or junk mail folders for their response.

  • Unable to make purchases "credit card has expired"

    I am unable to make purchases using my Apple TV. I receive an error message that says "your credit card has expired. Go the the iTunes store on your computer and update your Billing info."
    However my account is up to date. My credit card expiration date is years in the future. I make purchases all the time through iTunes store (music, apps, etc..)
    Any thoughts?

    I have the same problem. My info is updated. I can purchase music from my apple tv, and from iTunes. I can also purchase movies from the iTunes store and transfer them to apple TV, but unable to purchase directly from apple tv.
    One fix in the short term is to purchase a movie from the iTunes store and then transfer it to the apple tv. It's a longer process, but gets the job done.

    Apple IPhone is not accepting my security code on my credit card unable to make purchases on my IPhone anymore. Please advise already called my bank so it is a apple problem happening. I was trying to purchase poker chips from world series of poker app.

    My download speed during this test was 6.63 MB so fast enough for the App Store.

  • Why people are being referred to iTunes Terms of Sales when unable to make purchases and how it can be resolved?

    Thats the error message when trying to purchase
    I see nothing there that is referring you to the Terms of Sale. You're being told to contact iTunes Support. These are user-to-user support forums, if you thought you were contacting Apple by posting here. Go here:

  • TS3297 Apple ID is locked and unable to make purchases

    When I try to puchase an Album I get an error that says "Apple ID is locked and unable to make purchases"

    Depending on why it's been disabled you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
    Or you might need to contact Apple : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
    If it then works on your computer's iTunes but not your iPad then try logging out of your account on the iPad by tapping on the id in Settings > Settings > iTunes & App Stores and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on it

  • After 8.1 update, unable to make purchases on iphone

    After the 8.1 update I am no longer able to make purchases in either the itunes store or the app store on my iphone 5.  The I click on an item the circle just keeps spinning and I am never prompted to enter my appleID.  I have already done a reset, trying to avoid a factory reset because of the hassle to setup my google authenticator again.

    Hello
    Here's what worked for me
    In font explorer I had several instances of Helevetica Neue fonts (Same font name but not same file name).
    I deleted these instances in Font explorer.
    I went to fontbook and restore defaults fonts.
    After effects opened perfectly.

  • MD04: Unable to see Purchase Orders with Item Category S

    Hi,
    Whenever we create Purchase Orders with Item Category S (3rd party), they are not visible in MD04 Stock Requirements list.
    Is there anyway we can get the Item category S Orders to be displayed in the MD04 list?

    Hi,
    I am unable to see Third party POs with open quantity also.
    If I create a PO with blank item category (i,e to stock, it will show in MD04)
    but if i create PO with item category S (it does not show in MD04)
    Can you suggest how we can get item category S POs to be displayed in MD04

  • Unable to make purchase online

    I've been trying for hours to make some software purchases but every time I click the Buy App button I get the message, "The iTunes store is unable to process purchases at this time. Credit card processing is temporarily unavailable. . . . Please try to make your purchase later," followed by "We could not complete your request. There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (100)" What's up with this?

    Try here > Mac App Store: "An unknown error occurred (100)" when purchasing
    If that didn't help, disable anti virus software and turn off the Firewall in System Preferences > Security & Privacy
    Then try the App Store.
