Updated to newest version of iTunes and now cannot connect to iTunes Store
Please help! I have tried everything suggested by Apple to remedy this problem to no avail. I even have removed iTunes completely and downloaded/installed the newest version again. I did not want to update, but the store would not let me purchase a new release with my older version for some reason? I always hate modifications/updates. They never seem to work properly. Thanks for any suggestions in advance!
i had the same thing happen to me. as usualy new version of something stops something else from working. its final cut pro updates all over agian. anyway... the above posts helped me get a solution so i will share it;
since i didnt have any virus protection it appears to be the built in windows firewall doing the damage. on my machine i had to navigate to the windows security icon which is burried : start -> programs -> accessories -> system tools -> security center. then scroll down to "windows firewall" to the "exceptions tag". "iTunes" was already selected as an allowed program so i deleted it and then added it again (manually add program, then browse to wherever you saved iTunes to. likely in program files). the newer version came up as "iTunes.exe" not just "iTunes" as before.
thanks for the guidance and hope this helps someone else.

Upgraded to iOS5 and now cannot connect to iTunes Store
After upgrading to iOS 5, I cannot connect to the iTunes Store. I was having the problem at home where I was connected to my home network, and now when I'm not connected to a network.
Suggestions?This appears to be an Apple ID issue. I was forced to change my username to my email (which I had already done years ago) after searching and searching for reasons why my password all of the sudden didn't work on my iPhone. This started about 3-4 weeks ago.
So my password needed to be re-set when I tried to access my iTunes on my computer, and my iTunes balance disappeared. My username was still my email address (as it had been for years) but my gift card balance was gone and so was ownership of all my apps and music
Now, after upgrading to iOS5 my ONLY Apple ID now works with the re-set password, but it lost all of my apps. They are there, but when I go to update them through the iTunes store, I get that "cannot connect to itunes store" error message because after that weird 'update' to my Apple ID it seems to have lost all history I've had with Apple.
This is so upsetting, as I'm finding out that Apple does not allow recovery of these purchased items between these ID's. So, now I'm wondering where in the heck is my "old" apple id?? I can't sign in with my "old" info....

Activated iPhone on XP and now cannot connect to iTunes on MAC
Is it possible to sync Outlook on XP machine and music on a MAC. iTunes on the MAC cannot connect to the iPhone. Issues an "unknown error" message.
Help!Yes, I do the same with mine (sync appointments and contacts from PC at work and media from Mac at home).
Make sure you have the most recent version of iTunes, reboot the Mac, then connect the iPhone to a USB 2.0 port directly on the computer (not a hub). If it still will not work, consider reinstalling iTunes. -
Every time you guys have an update there is a problem. Now I cn't connect! I am writing you using IE. Maybe I should just stop using Firefox! When trying to connect I get the following error message:Unable to connect
Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at www.google.com.
The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
moments.
If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.
If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.I just wanted to post that I found my I-pod cache file and deleted it and now synchronization works fine, so no need for anyone to post an answer to this. Thank you very much.

Try doing a hard reset on the phone;
1. Hold Home and Sleep/Wake buttons at the same time;
2. Wait for the Apple logo to appear (ignore the slide to Power Off option)
3. Let go of the buttons when you see Apple on the screen
4. Allow iPhone to reboot;
If you are still unable to get the phone to power on, charge, or connect to iTunes; it could possibly require service. (hardware replacement) -

My ipod was recently disabled and now says "connect to iTunes" although my ipod has never been synced to my Mac laptop it will not allow me to. I need help.
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup (if you have an iCloud backup) see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store -
