Why is itunes store telling me I have lost my internet connection

I can browse the itunes store, and my internet is working fine, but when I try to purchase it takes a while and then tells me the request cannot be completed because the internet connection was lost - same thing when I try to access My Account.
What is going on ?

You might think "your Internet is working fine", perhaps because you can see no hitches when browsing but iTunes/Apple Store requires a stronger consistency in the connection and if this is not the case it cuts out precisely to save you from downloading corrupt files.

    Check to make sure you don't have your restrictions turned on, which may be preventing your access to iTunes.
    Tap on the settings icon, then tap General, then check to see if you have restrictions turned to ON.  If so turn it off.

    What settings do you have in regards to power saver and/or screen saver?
    For these kinds of system glitches I always recommend installing and running Onyx 'Automation'. If that does not work you should reinstall the offending software, if possible.

  • Why the itunes store on iphone doesnt have all the songs?

    My computer doesnt work but in the itunes store not all the songs come out why is this?

    Hi Chaaparrita,
    I don't relate your last with the fact that you marked your question answered.  iTunes content shouldn't be different whatever support you are using to access (iOS, Mac, PC).  Only the store homepages is different depending if you access from an iPad, PC or iPhone.
    But doing a search should gives you the same result.  Could you name the album you don't find on your iOS device with the country you are in?

  • Why my itunes store cant open?

    i try to open my itunes store after i upgrade to the newest version...it say "make sure your network connection is active and try again"
    but my network is ok and im connected bt why my itunes store cant be access?
    i try to uninstall and reinstall it again..still it hv the same problem

    Try the following:
    - Double click the Home button and close all apps in the recently-used dock. The power off and then back on the iPod.
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

  • Why does itunes store not pop up and not tell me why?

    Why does itunes store not pop up and then not tell me why? i"m wondering if it could have anything 2do with me just transefering music with my flash drive?

    Does it show in the Purchased section for downloading ? Click on the Purchased under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage.
    If not then have you tried logging out and back into the account ? If that doesn't work either then try contacting iTunes Support :  http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/

  • Why is iTunes Store not allowing me to report problems w/ one of my downloads?

    Am using Internet Explorer v11.0.9600.16428 On Windows 7 PRO w/ iTunes v11.3.1.8.  As far as I know, these are the latest versions of both those programs. 
    Why is iTunes Store not allowing me to report problems w/ one of my downloads?

    Clyde --
    I don't have a problem viewing my purchase history.  I have a problem getting support pages to work.  Every time I go to get support, ie: reporting a problem with a downloaded song, my Internet Explorer 11 displays a message from the iTunes website that says I much have the latest version of Mozila, Firefox or Internet Explorer to use the support pages.  Having met these requirements, why no can use support pages?

  • TS3297 Error message: 'Cant connect to the itunes store. An unknown error occured (-3212) please check you have an active internet connection and try again'. Help !

    Can someone help me please ? I was using itunes (downloading albums etc) just half an hour ago. I had a pop up asking me if i'd like to download the latest version of itunes, which i accepted. When the update had finshed downloading, i then restarted my computer, as i usually would. Tried to re access the itunes store, and received the following error message: 'Cant connect to the itunes store. An unknown error occurred (-3212) please check you have an active internet connection and try again.
    Needless to say, i have an active internet connection and cant see any reason why this would be happening, it has never happened before ?
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • Why does Itunes store use estimated sales tax?

    Does anyone know why the itunes store doesn't reveal the "real" tax even after you purchase? I was surprised my tax was estimated even past the point of purchase.  I'm not aware of any other online retailer who keeps it hidden.

    I understand that the tax is different in every state and country. My question is why they don't reveal the actual tax to you before they run your credit card, like every other retailer does.  I've ordered an ipad yesterday, got a confirmation email today, and still don't know the actual tax they're charging me.  This seems to violate business etiquette (charge an account without letting person know exact amount). They'll let me know "at invoice", i.e. after I have it in my possession.  Bestbuy, to give one of hundreds of examples, estimates the tax at first, but then tells you what tax actually is right before you confirm the order.

  • How to get Apple ID and password that is different to iTunes store account which I have already activated and completed contracts, tax information and bank information I want to create a Paid Books Account use apple ID

    I was given this address from the Apple customer support team.
    I have an active existing iTunes store account and use the same Apple ID for signing into my iTunes Connect Account that distributes Apps.
    I have created some books using the iBook author and in order to distribute content on the iBookstore I have been told electronically that I need a new Apple ID and password that is different to iTunes store account which I have already activated and completed contracts, tax information and bank information valid until 2013?
    I want to create a Paid Books Account using the same email address, tax information and bank information. This has been most frustrating, as I cannot get passed the sign in section and there is no contact person I can speak to. I was of the understanding the iTunes connect account and the Developer programs which I paid good money for is all what I needed to be paid for selling iBooks on the iBookstore???
    I only have one email address and wish to also use it for the Paid Books Account. I have books ready to be exported and published.
    I am also having trouble locating and downloading iTunes Producer. I understand I need to have the Paid Books Account active to access the iTunes Producer program. Please help.

    Hi Lrwill,
    If the apps that are on your son's iPad were purchased under his Dad's Apple ID, then signing your Apple ID onto the iPad will not help you with updating those apps.
    Also, if the iPad was sync'd with his Dad's iTunes library, then hooking it up to your computer/iTunes library, will require you to reset the iPad, and everything that was loaded under the other Library and Apple ID will be wiped out.
    Can you provide a little more info about what was set up under which Apple ID and what iTunes library the iPad was sync'd with?
    Cheers,

  • Why is it taking so long to download films rentals from Itunes before it only took 20 mins ,whenI have a good internet connection?

    Why is it taking so long to download film rentals from Itunes ,before it took 20 mins when I have a good internet connection.

    If you have anti virus software installed, disable that.
    Turn off the Firewall in System Preferences > Security & Privacy
    Check your internet speeds just in case >  Speedtest.net - The Global Broadband Speed Test
    Try not using other applications that require downloading files while downloading media from iTunes.
