Yet more problems with iTunes

[JohnnyBoyC]

Ok, my itunes started working again, but now i am having a different issue.

Ok, everytime i try to buy a song, it tells me to log in, so i type in my username and password, and it says:

Itunes could not connect to the Music Store
Make sure your connection is active and try again."​

I am POSITIVE my connection tot he internet is absolutly solid.

I thought maybe it was an account issue, so i tried to make a new one, and the same message popped up.

I installed/reinstalled itunes and it wont work. Any advice?

ur firewall could be stopping it from connecting to the music store, chck to see if itunes is allowed.

 

[JohnnyBoyC]

i dont have a firewall

 

[lethalforce]

resident monitors of any kind? windows firewall? (i doubt it )

uhhhh...let me think

 

[JohnnyBoyC]

nope i have no firewall at all.

yall probably download it wrong. When I download mine it works great. So either yall having issues downloading. Or I have a perfect computer.

 

[JohnnyBoyC]

nope i have no firewall at all.

I think I know what it might be. This might have occured because your trying to log onto the wrong iTunes server (or so I think). Which country are you registered with...you should only be able to log on at that server. You should be able to change the country with the drop down menu at the bottom of the screen:

But the change if you do a complete uninstall and then reinstall it again.

 

[JohnnyBoyC]

well, i live in the USA so i suppose im registered there, but i looked at the bottom and it already says USA.

Interesting...when did this problem first occur. It could be heavy traffic with your interent connection (your area: heavy useres) even though there isn't anything wrong with the connection.

 

[JohnnyBoyC]

well, i never buy things off of itunes, only once before, like 4 months ago. Anyway, i went to buy a song about last week and it started doing this.

 

[JohnnyBoyC]

so theres nothing i can do?

[JohnnyBoyC]

Dude, it could be a problem with the software (duh "OS Dragon: I just heard myself say that"). Have you tried doing a fresh install e.g. backup important files> unistall iTunes and install it again.

2) Yes I have tried all those things.
