When I try to purchase songs my session times out

when I try to purchase songs my session times out

I have been doing stuff with my account and my wife and kids accounts all day trying to setup home sharing. I got that all setup but the whole account access and so on and iTunes store has been horrendous today. I constantly have been timing out trying to update emails on accounts and change passwords as well as buy stuff off the store.
So your not the only ones for sure something is going on

When I try to purchase songs the ITunes Stores says the session has timed out and to check my network settings

ITunes shuts down when I try to purchase songs

When I click "buy album" it connects to the store, and then iTunes shuts down. It also shuts down when I try to "check for purchases." I am running the newest version of iTunes. It also did this with my previous version.
Real Player also shuts down, when I download videos.
I have re-installed both iTunes and real player around 5 times. So that will not help.

In addition to the other requested information, when was the last time ... or perhaps this will be the first time, to run Preferential Treatment to ensure your preference files aren't corrupt? If you can download it, it's at http://www.jonn8.com/html/pt.html. If you have OnyX, you can check your preference files using it, too.

I've already redeemed my iTunes card and have a balance reflected on the iTunes store. Why am I unable to buy additional music using that balance?

HT5731 How do I make my Ipod touch work? When I try to purchase songs it ask me for my apple ID password it tells me its wrong. I have reset it and changed it but it still wont work. Help!!

Somebody Please help me to get my stupid Ipod to let me download music I just put a 15 dollar card on. I don't want to waste it.

I have $15.11 in my itunes account but when i try to buy songs it won't let me. Can anyone help me?

I have $15.11 in my itunes account, but when i try to purchase songs it asks me if I want to buy it and i say yes then it sends me to a credit card form. How can i fix it so that i could buy it with the $15 that i already have?

Sales taxes are based on your location as purchaser. I'm sure you can find the sales tax rate in your area.

Session time out app store

I keep getting session time out whenever I try to purchase apps on iPhone 5. It keeps asking me to verify my credit card security number and then when I click DONE, it tells me session time out. Anyone can help?

Having problem with internet connectivity on WIFI - anything that depends on DNS for data whether it is a web browser or an app while using WIFI. I call this problem "WIFI Lockout".
This happens on iphone 4, ipad 2 and ipad 3 that has been updated to iOS 6.
I am not talking about the issue of the missing apple page (day 1) or the inability to turn on/configure WIFI after updating to iOS 6.
This is what i have discovered so far.
You could be in the middle of surfing or using any app that makes data calls based on DNS (when you type google.com that is translated in the background so your device knows where to go - summary only) and suddenly you can go no where or do nothing!
Sometimes conectivity goes trouble free for long periods, other times it is repetitive "WIFI Lockout".
Yea sure, you can restart the WIFI connection, but WHO wants to CONTINUALLY do that?
Interestingly enought the device is still successfully connected to the internet via WIFI, but DNS request fail to pass successfully from the iOS 6 device.
Apple (or any curious iOS 6 user that wants to see my point), when this happens "WIFI Lockout" open up a browser before you reset the WIFI connection and type type 74.125.227.144 (google) and then “go” (I tried both safari and chrome). A google search page will come up and you will be able to execute a search (of course any link you click on will not work as it is dependant on DNS resolution).
The above IP connection to google proves NON DNS traffic works, so the issue is not the WIFI connection to the access point that is the problem. It is not an access point configuration/firmware or security protocol issue either because data does pass when the above steps are followed.
I KNOW THIS IS NOT ALL OF THE PROBLEMS WITH iOS 6, BUT THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM NOT BEING ABLE TO SURF OR GET DATA THE iOS 6 DEVICE IS REQUESTING WHILE ON WIFI.

Itunes keeps telling me "my Session is timed out" when I try and purchase a song?

When I try and purchase a song it accessed the store and then I agree to terms and it dumps me saying "my session is timed out"???

I had the same, frustrating problem, then happened onto a process that worked for me. I wrote it up in the following post: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3541003
Hope that works for you, too.

TS1646 When I try to purchase a song, it will not let me use the gift card that I redeemed. It directs me to my billing info and says that my session has timed out. How can I fix this?

For some reason this worked for me. I went into my account and changed my first name, maybe it causes itunes to reset. What ever it does my itunes works now.

Help! When I try to purchase a song from iTunes and have agreed to the terms and conditions, it then tells me that my session has timed out... but I've only been trying for a few minutes. I can't buy songs if it keeps doing this!

Hi mterry1723, one solution that might be worth trying is this:
- Close iTunes, if it's open
- Open Safari and got to 'Preferences'
- Select 'Security' on the top
- Untick all the security options in the menu
- Click the 'Show Cookies' button and look for all the 'apple' entries in the left-hand column.
- Highlight them (select them collectively) and press 'Remove'
- Now open iTunes and buy the song as usual.
- You may be asked to do the same security process as before, so do as asked.
- Hopefully, the security check will now have accepted your answers and start downloading the song as normal.
Remember to re-tick all the required security options you had just un-ticked in Safari preferences. You don't need to bother about opening the cookies again.
I hope this has worked for you and my profoundest apologies if it has not. Worth a go, though!
I did see this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/message/18259935#18259935 which may be of more help, mainly the last entry by 'c2boyd'

If the amount of the purchase is close to $21.07, then you need to take into account taxes may be added.
If you go beyond the credit from a gift card the balance will be billed to your credit card account.

HT201209 iTunes will not use the redeemed gift cards on my account, I have a $30 credit and when I try to purchase a song it goes right to my credit card on file. Why does this keep happening

Any time you've changed anything in your billing, it does this once to very things.

HT5622 Why when I try to download songs onto my iPhone from my iPad, it pops up and says "This device is already associated with an Apple ID, You can download past purchases on this device with just one Apple ID every 90 days.

Why when I try to download songs onto my iPhone from my iPad, it pops up and says "This device is already associated with an Apple ID, You can download past purchases on this device with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this device with a different Apple ID for 90 days
(Note, mine says 28 days because I have been waiting for a fair bit for this to go away.)

You can't keep changing the ID you use with iTunes, you are limited to once every 90 days.

I have 2 accounts in my family and would like to purchase some of the same songs for both accounts, however when I try to purchase a duplicate song from the second account the song says play instead of purchase. How can I get some of the same songs?

Copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder from her old compouter to /Music/ in her account on this new computer.

When I try to purchase a song and enter my ID and password and hit buy, the system indicates that the account is new and I should preview my account info. I do that, enter Paypal, get verification, and try to purchase again same message. How do I buy?

I am a first time user. When I try to purchase a song and enter my ID and password and hit buy, the system indicates that the account is new and I should preview my account info. I do that, enter Paypal as my purchase option, get verification, and try to purchase again same message. How do I get out of this loop so that I can buy?

Sounds like you have abn expired credit card linked o yoru accopunt.
View your iTunes account payment info and select None for the CC.
You may need to first add a valid card number before you can remove it.
