IPhone :: 4 Updates For Apps - "Cannot Connect To Itunes Store"
Apr 13, 2012
Iphone 4 says i have updates to install for my apps, when i try to it prompts for my password which i type in, then it waits a few moments before telling me "Cannot connect to itunes store"
So for 2 months I have not been able to update any of my apps due to the error code "cannot connect to itunes store. I can download new apps, buy music, itunes works fine but I cannot update anything. I have tried resetting, logging in and out of id, turning wifi on and off. Pretty much everything that a not so technical person can do.
I recently updated my phone and it wants me to connect to iTunes, but when i do iTunes says that I have to restore my phone. Why is it making me do this?
I'm having issues with the Play Store and some non-Google sites. I'm constantly noticing that Play Store gets stuck in "Downloading" when trying to update apps or install new ones and never actually starts until I completely restart the phone. Chrome also gets stuck loading pages that are non-Google sites, and I can't seem to download anything as they all get queued.
I tried clearing cache + data on play store, play services, download manager and even a factory reset. Everything works when I reboot, but after some hours it get "stuck" again, every day. Happens on wifi and 3G; what's causing it.I'm running stock Nov build with root (not systemless). Same exact apps and config on my N5 and no issues there.
I just got my iphone 4 last night and i was able to download some apps last night but today for some reason when i go to the app store from the iphone and go to the search tab it keeps saying "Cannot connect to itunes store" i am able to connect every 10th time or so...
I just got an iPhone 5s and set up was easy enough, but I can't connect to the app store or iTunes. Tried things suggested on this forum and the apple guide but nothing has worked so far. Don't have any issues with internet connection.
i have added icloud, gmail, exchange accounts. they all work, i can receive emails, my contacts are synced/downloaded to my phone from both icloud and gmail.Â
i can surf the internet with browser. cannot connect to both app store and itunes. when i start these apps, these are the messages i see on the screen: "Cannot Connect to App Store" and "Cannot Connect to iTunes Store"Â
CHECKED: apple support is checked, but it states general issues, lik is your phones time adjusted, ios version up to date, is there wifi connectivity, if not is there 3g connectivity. as i said, i use 3G and i can surf the internet, enter youtube, watch videos flawless, my contacts synced, i can receive emails...Â
i Can connect to iTunes on my computer no problem, absolutely can not connect to the App Store or iTunes via iPhone 4S. It won't work on 3G or wifi, there is no connectivity problem Whatsoever. I need to use the App Store directly from my phone but it's been 48 hours and still will not connect. I have turned it off and on, hard reset, nothing is working.
I have been trying to connect to the itunes store for the first time since upgrading my iphone software to IOS 5.1.1 and am getting the error : Cannot Connect to the iTunes Store.
i cant connect itunes in my iphone 4s..iam getting an error "cannot connect itunes store".i can able to use app store in my phone..iam using wifi connection..whats the problem with my phone..i disabled restrictions in settings..but still i cant access itunes store.
cant connect to safari and apps store...on safari it'll turn on but it'll open the history file and then it shuts off...same goes with the apps store it'll open then few sec later it shuts off
On iphone 4 Not able to update any apps or buy iTunes since updating phone to 5.1.1. Tried doing a cold boot of the phone and resetting password but still get "unknown error" message and a prompt to cancel or retry.
Why can I make purchases in the iTunes Store but when I try and make "in app purchases" I always get the message failure to purchase cannot connect to iTunes Store?
I guess the only way I can tether my iP4 to my 10v hackintosh without paying o2's 'extra charges' will be by jailbreaking right? Any other way?...If I put my already activated micro-sim into my iP4 at the store, what will I be able to do with it on my train back...or will i need to 'register' via iTunes first before i can mess with it?
If I have to register it via iTunes before i can do anything with it then i guess i can do this on a Mac at the store right (making sure i sign out properly after having finished doing this ofcourse)?I have already downloaded the apps i will be installing via iTunes to my netbook. i'm guessing i simply plug the ip4 into my netbook and install them on the way home...or will i need an internet connection to install already 'downloaded' apps?
Since I updated to 5.1 on my iPhone 3Gs, I keep getting problems with the updated OS. I can't download apps, music or books from the iTunes store, it's very hit and miss. It is pointless having a pin upon wake up of the phone as all you have to do to get past the pin is by swiping the camera button up to by-pass it. The battery life has dramatically dropped from lasting a couple of days with everyday use to around 9 hours. The signal from the network has dropped from 3 bars on 3G to 4 bars on GPRS, and finally apps keep crashing and exit themselves to the home screen.
I have rang my network (O2UK) and they have said that they have had serveral reports of Apple products having these bugs since the release of 5.1, and saying that nothing has changed in terms of te settings and masts near me, but they advised me to check my network settings and if they are different from what O2's website said (they were the same). So why are there so many bugs with 5.1? I can't download any apps at all and my battery is worse?

I have struggled over this for days. I recently lost the internet provider on my old internet account which was my old Apple ID. I successfully changed my Apple ID in ITunes to a new permanent email address. I cannot change the settings on the App store or ICloud. The suggested solutions for this problem have not worked for me because there is no option for changing the old Apple ID. When you tap on it, it does not change. I have tried signing in with the Old Apple ID (the old email account) and it doesn't work either. I have synced my phone (and lost my contacts in the process but that was an entirely different headache!) to no avail.
Some of the solutions stated that I should go to the store and tap on the Apple ID and it would allow me to change...no such luck. Also when I tried Iforgot, it would only let me change my password which is not really any help because the problem is the Apple Id.
"Updating to iOS 5.1.1 will delete all of the apps and media, including iTunes Store purchases, on your iPhone. To preserve your content, apply this update on the computer where you sync apps, music videos, and photos. Updating on this computer will only preserve contacts, calendars, text messages, and other settings. Please do not interrupt the update, which may take an hour or longer to complete. iTunes will verify the software update with Apple." What do I do now? My only options on the pop up are cancel or update.
If you already have an Apple ID, you can easily use it at the iTunes Store or Mac App Store.
