Why is my iTunes/App Store just blank?

My iTunes/App Store is just blank with no pictures. Text shows up fine but clicking on buttons like "Buy" doesn't do anything. I can still download updates for apps that i already have though, which is weird. This isn't just happening on my Windows computer but also on my sister's Macbook, all of our iPhones, iPads, etc. I did try solutions suggested by other people like resetting my iTunes cache or updating my various software and services, but since the issue isn't limited to just one computer, the issue must be much larger than that. It isn't my Apple ID either since I tried the IDs of my other family members as well to no avail (we live in the Philippines so use the Philippine store).
Any ideas?
This issue started 2 weeks ago and I haven't been able to get any response from Apple support engineers other than that I could pay for one to call me and try to solve my problem. It's pretty silly considering that I want this issue resolved so that I can continue to purchase apps and music from them to begin with.

This is also my problem. It started last week for me. There are no "music", "movies" tabs on top and there are no pictures of albums, movie posters etc. When I tried buying songs, I click on the BUY button but nothing happens.

Why does my iTunes / App store go to the German version when I travel in Austria?

Since I updated to iOS 6 my iTunes Store and App Store are both going directly to the Austrian stores. I am in Austria at the moment travelling. But how come I can't change back the Canadian stores? I think someone dropped the ball on this one.

No, go to "settings", "iTunes & App Stores" click on your "Apple ID:" should be some type of email address. Then hit "View Apple ID". Once you sign in w/ your password, hit "country or region" (even if it already shows the correct country) your basically reverifying. I'm guessing since you updated while on vacation your locations services were on thats why it changed countries. Anyway follow the steps update your payment info (you will only need the security code for your debit/credit card if it stayed the same). And you should be good!
Good Luck !

2. Reset phone (no data loss): Press both the home and power buttons, releasing when the Apple logo appears

Why is my Apple ID not working in iTunes and App Store on my iPhone? Nothing happens if I click buy for apps or music. If I then go to settings/iTunes App Store my Apple ID is not there. If I then enter ID and password it does not save or link to account?

Why is my Apple ID not working in iTunes or App Store on my iPhone? When I try to buy apps or music it asks for Apple ID so I enter my info and nothing happens.

I do not have this problem with iPad ID is stored and can be used in App Store and iTunes. I have just upgraded to 5c and it's still a problem.

When fist setting up your new iphone you will be asked to log in with an apple id and password. If this did not happen you can then do as you suggested going to settings to itunes and app store and add your apple id login. This apple id login must have already been created for the iphone to accept it. If this apple id is already created but is not being accepted by your iphone you then should shut down your iphone and restart the device.
Good luck.

Why does my App store just have question marks where pictures should be?

When you log in with a new device, Apple asks security questions and will email you to make sure it is not an unauthorized access to your account.

ITunes, app store, iBooks store, etc won't load and I can't figure out why. I tried rebooting and it didn't help. Everything else works fine. Help please?

iTunes, app store , iBooks store, etc won't load and I don't know why. Everything else works fine, and I've rebooted it. The problem is still there and I know I have a good Internet connection. Help please?

Have you tried disconnecting and re-connecting to your network ?. And when you say rebooted do you mean a reset ? If not then try that : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
You could also try closing those apps completely. From the home screen (i.e. not with any of those apps 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the iTunes, App Store and iBooks apps to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.

Hi. I just upgraded to the IPhone 5. I am connected to wifi but I am still unable to access ITunes, App Store and Safari. I have tried helpful tips but nothing is working. Any suggestions? I have also done the sync to Wifi. Thanks

Hi. I have just upgraded to the IPhone5. I have synced to WIFI and I am still unable to connect to ITunes, App Store or Safari. Any suggestions?
Thanks for your help. NR1420

What happens when you try? Do you get an error message.
disconnect from the wifi and try on cellular data, if you can access the apps, then the problems lies with your router.

Why isn't the App Store and iTunes a choice for an app on my mini?

Why isn't the App Store and iTunes a choice for an app on my mini?

Either they've been moved to another home screen or dropped in a folder, in which case doing a search or resetting the Home Screen layout (Settings/General/Reset) should bring them up, or they've been turned off in General/Restrictions.

HT201272 why is itunes app store still showing prices for previous purchases?

I have not had this problem until recently. prior to today, I could go into iTunes App Store and a show or movie I already own is available for download but now it shows the cost. I dare click on it for fear of being double billed. This is frustrating because iTunes just started allowing us to access our purchased content without connecting to the computer and downloading them as often as we wanted. Is this problem affecting others or just me?

I started having the same problem yesterday.
In fact, I just now downloaded a free app. With the app now on my PC, it still shows that it is "free" rather than "downloaded" on the iTunes app page. I moved the .jpa file out of the default folder, and refreshed the app page in iTunes. Similarly, it does not show a "download" option like it should. It makes re-downloading apps that I have paid for in the past difficult if there is not the "download" bar to indicate that I am entitled to the app.
It's probably related, but at one point last night I had a bunch of apps with available updates. I tried to go to the iTunes page on my PC to view the apps with updates. At that point I got a pop-up window stating that I did not have any updates available, and it has been zero ever since. I did not download the updates, nor did all of the apps disappear from the iTunes catalog.
I have an iPad 2 and recently got an iPod Touch. I want to re-download some non HD apps for the Touch that I ditched for HD versions on the iPad. I, too, do not want to be re-billed.

Why my apple id doesnt accept in itunes app store..

Hi what woul i do if my apple id doesnot accept to itune/app store..

Hello jillianeshania,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing when trying to purchase an item from the iTunes and App Stores. It sounds like you have successfully created your Apple ID, but you will need to configure it to be used with the iTunes and App Stores by updating your billing information and location.
I recommend starting with step 10 in the section titled “Creating an Apple ID on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch” in the following article:
Tip: If you are trying to create an account using an existing Apple ID, like your iCloud email address, you will receive a prompt telling you that your email address is already an Apple ID. Simply tap Continue, and then tap Use Existing Account on the following screen.
iTunes: How to set up an Apple ID within iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2731
You can find additional information at the following link:
Using an existing Apple ID with the iTunes Store, Mac App Store, and iBooks Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2589
If you've used your Apple ID in the iTunes and App Stores in the past and this does not resolve your issue, please provide additional informatin like the error message you are seeing.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

ITunes - App Store - There are updates available that ain't available?

First of all, I'm starting to think that the iPhone ***** big time, but that's a whole other story...
So, here's my issue: Apparently there are updates to my applications available. So says iTunes and also the App Store app on the iPhone, both of them reporting the same number of apps available.
I'm quite sure that there was a button to "update all" on the iPhone on 2.0.1 and 2.0, but that seems to be missing? (but not the point anyway)
Then, in iTunes, the applications view tells me that there are updates available. When I click that link on the lower right that usually redirects to the update page, iTunes tells me that there are no updates available for my account?!
How can that be? Either there are or there ain't.
Is there a way to fix that problem? I would have updated the applications trough the iPhone, but as there are many (44) and I would have do update them one-by-one, I'd like to go an easier way...
I'm really patient, but I start to hate my iPhone. As it is now, it is just a ******* expensive piece of junk. :-((

I have fixed a similar issue in my iTunes. Here is my thoughts on why it happened and the fix.
I had recently added a second computer w/ iTunes with which my iPhone is now synching. I wanted to move my music library synching from work to home.
On the 1st PC (@ Work) I was synching:
Info, Contacts
Info, Calendar
Ringtones
Music
Podcasts
Video
Applications
On the 2nd PC (@ Home) I began synching:
Ringtones
Music
Video
Applications (this nicely caused all of my iPhone Applications to be copied to this PC, in case of a need for a restore from home)
After beginning synching on the 2nd PC (@ Home), I disabled synching on 1st PC of:
Ringtones
Music
Video
Applications (This apparently caused the issue)
The issue with phantom updates was showing up on the 1st PC (@ Work), but I was not synching Applications here. Apparently, I had updated some Applications from the 2nd PC (@ Home) and iTunes detected this and saw a need to show that my iTunes Applications needed updating. Something not in synch between iPhone - iTunes - App Store I believe.
The Fix:
On the 1st PC (@ Work) I enabled synching of Applications and then performed a synch. The phantom updates went away. I noted during the synch that my iPhone apparently updated some of the applications in my iTunes library.
I hope this helps or enlightens others having this difficulty.

The App Store just goes white when I attempt to search for apps.

My App Store screen just goes white when I attempt to search for apps. You can tell it tries for a few seconds and then nothing but white.

See if any of these suggestions from appletoolbox.com work for you.
Please try each step until you resolve your issue:
Tap Settings > General > Date and Time > Set Automatically > Off. Set the date one year ahead. Then try to access the App Store.
It may be a connection issue. Try changing your DNS settings to Google’s open DNS by tapping Settings > Wi-Fi >, tap the blue arrow next to your current Wi-Fi network, and then tap the “DNS” field and enter the DNS servers; 8.8.8.8 (Google’s Public DNS). (see this article)
Close the App Store completely by pressing the home button twice, pressing and hold the App Store icon until it starts to wiggle, then tapping the minus sign to close it. Re-launch the App Store.
Restart your device by pressing and holding the sleep/wake button until “Slide to Power off” appears.
Launch the App Store; if it is still blank with nothing shown, wait a few minutes. Sometimes apps may load slowly because of networking issues.
If still nothing appears, try changing the device’s language by tapping Settings > General > International > Language. Pick a language. Pick any other second language you already know or be familiar with. If you don’t, do not forget to navigate back in a different language. Change the language, launch the App Store, then change the language back to what it was originally.
Sign out of your Apple ID by tapping Settings > iTunes & App Store, tap your Apple ID and select “Sign Out”. Wait one minute and sign back in by reentering your Apple ID and password.

Categories in App Store are blank

in iTunes for Windows, I go to the App Store dropdown and select a category and It comes up with a blank screen.
Podcasts, Music, etc. work fine for categories, it's just the
App store where they don't.
I'm on iTunes 9.0.2.25

Same things happen here! The categories in the iPhone app store becomes blank since Friday afternoon. I am in Hong Kong and this happens to the Hong Kong, Taiwan, China iTune stores. I also login to the US and Japan stores, but they were both fine!
This especially impact me because I am an iPhone app developer and my app was on the top paid app list of travel. Suddenly, people loss direct access to my app in the store through browsing!
Hope Apple notice and fix this problem soon!
