Oct 24, 2013 1:41 PM in response to shira_3434by DShare,I discovered a solution that worked for me. I went into "Settings>Notification Center" and selected an app that was having a problem with push notifications. All I did was change the "ALERT STYLE" from "Banners" to "Alerts". I tried it on "Find My Friends", "Facebook", and "The Weather Channel", and I no longer get the message "Connect to iTunes to use push notifications". When I change the setting back to "Banners", the problem doesn't reappear.
Good luck...

Oct 26, 2013 2:39 AM in response to frommylensby bdebz79,This definitely works and only takes a couple of minutes. There is no need for backing up or resetting your phone.
Go to Settings/General/Reset/Reset Network Settings

But, this worked for me like a charm!
Thanks a lot! -
Oct 27, 2013 2:25 AM in response to JorgeGtzby bdebz79,Yes JorgeGtz you lose your wireless connections but for me it took seconds to put the password back in and reconnect to my wi-fi so was a small price to pay to be able to have push notifications on my apps that I use so much! :)

Oct 27, 2013 6:27 AM in response to frommylensby Burapa,I tried Settings/General/Reset/Reset Network Settings
It didn't work in the beginning, so I turn off my iphone and turn on again. Now it works perfectly!
Thank you so much :-)

Oct 29, 2013 7:32 PM in response to frommylensby MVMark,Reset network worked for me, too.
BUT, it only worked after I connected to a WiFi network.
Right after reset, but before I connected to any WiFi network, (only on cellular), I still had the problem. Then I connected to a WiFi network, and after that, the problem was resolved.
My spouse also had the problem - but when he went into the Apple store to see them about it, his phone connected to that network (a new network for his phone) - and it was fixed!
There's something about connecting to a previously unknown (or perhaps forgotten) network that seemed to cure this problem.
Interesting test for the next person coming here: Don't reset your network, just forget the WiFi network you are connected to, then re-connect. Wonder if that is enough...

Oct 30, 2013 5:16 PM in response to shira_3434by Anonimoes,Very annoying indeed! I did not want to try the restore or reset network settings suggested in this tread, nor did changing the alert style fix the issue... I found a different approach that worked for me though: Go into settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Fetch new data -> disable and then re-enable push here. I hope this workes for others as well!

Oct 31, 2013 2:05 AM in response to Woelf36by Woelf36,I caved in and did a restore. It fixed the problem, and truth be told, doing the restore wasnt so bad. It's more the principle of it that nagged me, but I'm over it now.

Nov 1, 2013 7:55 PM in response to shira_3434by masinmiami,Wow is this annoying. I downloaded the latest update and now I get this message non-stop with most apps. With some of my apps like, Words with Friends, it freezes my iphone so that I can't exit the app or use the app and have to power off and back on. Apple should have had a fix on this within 24 hours. I've already wasted almost 2 hours of my time dealing with this, and now it looks like I'm going to have to do a restore. Unacceptable!
