Why have my App Store, iTunes, and my Google related apps stopped working properly?

I was on my iPod and soon figured out that iTunes and Google-related apps weren't working. iTunes kept telling me I 'might be on a server pretending to be iTunes' and won't let me use it. When I open the App store, it tells me that it cannot connect to iTunes. Also, any apps I have that are Google related are on the fritz. My Google Drive won't allow me to view my documents, write new ones, or rename them. It says I'm not connected to the Internet... but I am. Google Translate, YouTube, or my Google Search app weren't working as well. Also having slight issues with Safari but they fix themselves after a moment. I'm not sure what's going on with my apps and I haven't checked other apps for issues so I'm not sure if it's all apps. This started happening after I deleted Spotify. I'm sure it has nothing to do with my app issues but it might be worth mentioning. So what's going on and have any of you had this problem before?

Why am I not able to access the app store, itunes and safari since upgrading to Mavericks 10.9?

IT tells me they would have to revert to the old OS which they don't want to do or can't do? I have been two months without access. I am at a loss. any help or guidance would be appreciated. I work for state government and our servers are PC-based which I think where the problem is. Is there a work around to gain access to the app store, itunes and safari. The app store icon indicates I have updates available but I am stuck. Please advise.

I know safari is mac's native browser. Since updating to OSX10.9, I have not been able to open safari. Firefox works fine but I preferred safari. Safari just won't open, it acts like it wants to, but the progress bar goes about half way across and stops. What other information do I need to supply?
This is a very frustrating problem when I see that there are updates to apply, but am unable to open the app store to get them. I can't even see them.
IT, in my opinion, has almost thrown in the towel since they are more PC-based.I believe it is a connection problem but they have been unable to fix it. They blame mac for a hasty upgrade release that was not fully tested to see if there were any Mac/PC connection issues.
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Can't connect to the App store, iTunes and software update with MBP 13

Hi,
I have a MBP 13 from 2011 and I have a really annoying problem with connecting it to the App Store, iTunes and the software update. It claims that I have no internet/wifi/network, although I clearly have it since I am watching series through Netflix and are on Facebook at the same time. So naturally I started to look in to the firewall and it works fine, since it does not and has never blocked any other Apple products/programs. So I continued looking everywhere in the computer, found nothing. And finally I decided to re-install the MBP and I still cannot connect to neither of these programs.
I feel that it is really unnecessary to hand the MBP in for service for a problem like this, so I was wondering if there is someone out there who has a solution to this problem? Beacue , as I mentioned earlier, my internet/wifi is working perfectly with everything else, so I really do not understand why App Store, iTunes and the software update does not work.

Apps purchased from the App Store in iTunes are only for iOS devices such as the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad. To use such an app, you need to connect your iOS device to your computer and iTunes will send the app to the device. You then run the app on the device.
There is a separate Mac App Store (MAS) available to Macs running OS X 10.6.6 or later. You purchase apps in the same way as the App Store in iTunes, but apps purchase in the Mac App Store will work directly on the Mac.

Every time I go on safari the App Store opens and a William hill app is shown... Really irritating !!!

Is anybody else having this problem? I google a page and as the page opens the App Store opens and the William hill app is always showing !!! I don't want it lol :p

Try rephrasing the question: "I have an I pad mini and I pressed an app on my App Store and it froze and every time I go on it it is still on the app". It doesn't make much sense. Perhaps post in your native language.

Very simple take it to an Apple Store or AASP and have it professionally diagnosed. Anything else would be guessing. Do NOT spend a penny on it until it is professionaly diagnosed otherwise you stand and excellent chance of throwing good money after bad.

Problems with App store, iTunes and iCloud since Mavericks

Hello,
Since upgrading to Mavericks I've been having problems signing into iCloud and can't access the iTunes store. I also can't access or sign in to the app store, which obviously means I won't be able to get software updates either.
I've tried a few things to fix the problem, including a fresh install, but nothing has worked so far.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Many thanks.

Why would Lightroom video capabilities/iTunes import/Netflix streaming/Photoshop all stop working at once?

Hi forum --
Several programs all stopped working at the same time and will only work (briefly) right after I've restarted my computer including:
- iTunes audio cd importing
- Lightroom video importing and playback
Netflix streaming (on both Safari and Chrome) won't work and Photoshop (CS4) won't open at all.
Videos work without a problem in: Quicktime, iMovie, Final Cut Pro, and Bridge CS4 and CS6. YouTube also works without a problem.
Maybe the problems are conincidence, but this seems like it is posisbly a software problem with my computer, not my programs.
I have tried reinstalling Ligthroom and resetting the preferences files but they don't help.
The only things that I can think of that happened is that I:
1. downloaded my own videos from my own YouTube acocunt after my external hard drive failed and maybe there was a virus?
2. I deleted some programs with "Clean My Mac 2" and maybe it deleted some crucial file someplace?
I am running a 2009 13" MacBook Pro with a 2.53 Ghz processor and 4 GB RAM and Mountain Lion (everything is up to date).
Thank you for any suggestions!

I had problems with streaming until I changed the WiFi channel that I was using. The original one conflicted with my neighbor. After that, MOST of my streaming problems vanished. Occasionally, a movie would pause for more buffering and I eventually ran an ethernet cable from the Apple TV to my Apple Extreme (to eliminate the Wifi). I have not had a single problem since then (except to repair the drywall after running the ethernet from one floor to another). :-)

Why have my location bar dropdown history as well as bookmarks stopped working?

For some reason I can no longer use the drop down arrow on my location bar to see my history and quickly go to a site previously viewed.
Also I can no longer bookmark any pages. I have gone to the tools and options and privacy to make the recommended tech support changes. Still nothing!
Help please

Make sure that the Location Bar is not set to "Nothing":
* Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Location Bar: When using the location bar, suggest: History, Bookmarks, History and Bookmarks, Nothing
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Location+bar+autocomplete
A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

I downloaded the newest version of iTunes and now my iPhone won't work. What should I do?

I downloaded the latest version of iTunes and now my iPhone won't work properly. What should I do to try to fix this? Should I uninstall the new version and if I do, what version should I install. I am using Windows 7 and iPhone 4S.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
They are different problems because I doubt that iTunes has been able to modify Mail, that has nothing to do with iTunes.
As you are running 10.7.4, download and install OS X 10.7.5, the most recent Lion version > http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1582 After installing the update, you should be able to run Mail

Why has my "similar" mouseover feature in GOOGLE image search stopped working?

When I clear cache and cookies it will work properly for awhile in Foxfire 4, but after resetting my GOOGLE preferences, it stops working properly once again. The earlier version of Foxfire did not have this problem. Also, the "similar" feature continues to work fine in Explorer.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in <u>[[Safe mode]]</u>:
* Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

TS1538 I have updated both my Itune and Ipad mini , however, when I click on the device icon (beside itune store), it disappear. Why does this happen?

I have updated both my Itune and Ipad mini , however, when I click on the device icon (beside itune store), it disappear. Why does this happen?

I'm not sure why this would happen. But I think I did see another post a week or two ago about this. Have you tried rebooting your computer and resetting your iPad.
To reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

Hi there.
Have an iphone 3G and wen to install the Facebook app from the app store. Wen I selected install app, it said that the iphone requires IOS 4.3.
I then plugged the phone into itunes and it said the phone was up to date (IOS 4.2.2 I think it said?). How can i install these apps, the same happened and other apps i tried to install. Any advice would be much apprecaited

Unfortunately there is nothing that you can do and you CAN'T install these apps becuse your phone is too old. A 3G cannot be updated beyond iOS 4.2, which is the most it can support and these apps need iOS 4.3 or above to be installed and there are no versions of these apps available.
Developers have to place a cut off somewhere and keep developing for the most recent software that does not now include the 3G.
If you want to install these apps on your phone, then you will have to upgrade to either an iPhone 3Gs, iPhone 4, 4s or 5. That is all you can do because you won't be able to download these apps on an iPhone 3G - just not possible any longer.
