I get this error also. It is getting quite annoying. I tried contacting support and this is what they sent me:
"First, make sure you're using the latest version of iTunes. It can be downloaded free of charge from the iTunes website:
http://www.itunes.com/download
Certain types of software can cause conflicts and prevent iTunes from connecting to the iTunes Store properly, even if the software appears to be configured to allow iTunes access. This can include firewall, virus-protection, and web-acceleration software.
If the error message persists after you upgrade iTunes, you can pinpoint which software program is the source of the block in the connection by using the MSCONFIG utility on your computer. For detailed instructions, please refer to the following article:
Using MSCONFIG to troubleshoot conflicts in Windows Vista
http://www.info.apple.com/kbnum/n305415
In addition, if you are connecting to the Internet via a local area network (LAN), your router might have firewall settings that may interfere with your downloads and produce this error message. I suggest removing the router from your computer's connection and then connecting your computer directly to your modem. For assistance with settings for your router or modem, you may need to contact the manufacturer.
When configuring the software on your computer to give iTunes access to the Internet, you'll need to allow the following domains :
phobos.apple.com
phobos.apple.com.edgesuite.net
If you require more in-depth assistance, you may wish to consider calling Apple technical support. A representative will be able to tell you about Apple's complimentary and fee-based support options and can help you determine which option might be most helpful in this case. You can reach AppleCare technical support at 800-APL-CARE (800-275-2273). Help is available seven days a week from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. central time. "
Didn't help me... maybe it will work for someone else.

  • Already tried FAQ, keep getting this message on iPhone and computer: iTunes could not connect to iTunes store. An unknown error occurred (11556)

    Only happened after I got a new iPhone *(upgraded from 4 to 5c) and I downloaded the iOS 8.1.2 update.
    I've already tried everything on the FAQ page for this error, and nothing's worked yet.
    Error looks like this iTunes on my computer: iTunes could not connect to iTunes store. An unknown error occurred (11556)
    Also won't connect on my iPhone after signing in.
    Just changed my password so it's not that, and I've already restarted my iPhone twice.
    PLEASE help. I just got an iPhone 5c and I want to download my old ring tones and alert tones!!!

    "Error 11556"
    This alert occurs when iTunes is trying to do something not allowed by the iTunes Store in that country.
    The most common example of this is trying to sign in while limited to iTunes U by Parental Controls.
    For more information, see the steps from iTunes 9: "One Moment Please" or "Error (-50)" message when accessing iTunes Store.

    Suddenly, I am seeing an error message that reads: "The iTunes Library cannot be saved. An unknown error occurred (-54)".  Can anyone tell me what that means? Am I in danger of my iTunes library being lost?

    == Error -54 ==
    From an OS9 reference, error -54 is a software lock on a file or a permissions error. (Some of the old codes still apply to OSX although there is no formal list of OSX error codes.)
    First, try simply restarting your computer.

  • HT4623 unknown error occured (11556)

    my iPad shows "cannot connect to iTunes Store". My PC shows "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. An unknown error occured (11556). Make sure your network connection is active and try again.".
    I think that it will be helpfull if there was an app that is able to find issues. This app makes log and forwards it securely to Apple Tech Team or generates a solution.

    IIIaass is right on the money! Specifically, please go to this page for error 11556 (in most cases, this should solve the error 11556): http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3288
    It's that (I found this myself yesterday, after weeks of helplessness in solving the error 11556) whenever iTunes is updated, the Parental Controls in iTunes are, by default, set to 'enabled' mode! One needs to disable/unckeck this on the iTunes menu (under 'Edit' -->  'Preferences' -->  'Parental'). See the relevant discussion/thread here:https://discussions.apple.com/message/22473554#22473554

  • An unknown error occurred when Dreamweaver tried to connect to this Contrib

    Hello all,
    I just started having a Dreamweaver problem that's perplexing me...
    I have 2 machines, a G4 and a G5 both running Dreamweaver ( I have MX2004 and 8 on both machines, this problem effects both versions on the G5 only).
    Everything was humming along just fine until the other day when suddenly I was receiving error messages on my G5 stating
    "An unknown error occurred when Dreamweaver tried to connect to this Contribute site".
    Then my local folder containing the website that I was working on would go gray (in Dreamweaver) and lose it's folder icon. It would still look like it was there, just no icon. When I would click on the drop down triangle it would state, " The local root folder, (and the folders name), does not exist. Please select a new local folder by clicking the Manage Sites button".
    I then ran a couple of tests on the G4 and it connected fine, I was able to edit, upload/download, everything as usual. I then attempted to connect to the site with Transmit on the G5...no problem.
    In the site definition I remembered that it may be set up to work with Contribute sites, but this was not the case, the box was unchecked.
    I then had the idea to export the site key from the G4 and grab it onto the G5 and import it into Dreamweaver...I did this AND IT WORKED! Once...after that back to the 2 usual errors.
    I found a work around for now...do my editing/site building in Dreamweaver, and upload with Transmit...this works fine...I've found that the errors only happen AFTER I've connected with the site(s). I've tried this with the other sites I maintain and it was the exact same thing.
    Are there any similar experiences out there? This has really got me stumped... can't imagine what it is.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    thanks

    my firewall is off, everything worked up until a couple days ago when it randomly stopped working

    Unknown error occured (310) when trying to connect to itunes store

    This is probably due to a connection error.
    I fixed this by navigating this route:
    Control Centre > Network and Internet > Internet Options > Connections Tab > LAN Settings > Untick proxy server box (if ticked).
    Hope this solved your problem!
