Cannot accept Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions

When I tried updating an app yesterday, I got an pop-up telling me to accept the new Apple Media Terms and Conditions. But when I choose Ok a blank, drak gray screen pops up with a loading sign that disappears after a few seconds. I tried restarting my phone, logging out, using celluar data/WI-Fi and trying again today but nothing works.

Does anybody have some tips for me to solve this problem?

iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 15

Hello antarc,



Thanks for those additional details there! Next, does the same thing happen if you try to download or install any new apps? Also, do you have any other Apple devices at all, and if so, does the same thing happen there too?


In the meantime, let's also try going to the Settings > [Your Name] at the top > Media & Purchases > View Account. Does the terms and conditions pop up here when you view the account info?



Take care.

Hello antarc,


Next, let's create a backup: How to back up your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch


Then completely uninstall and offload any affected apps, and then reinstall them again. This helps ensure they are properly connected to your Apple ID, and that they weren't installed with a different Apple ID in the past.

We hope this helps get you pointed in the right direction.


Take care.

Hello there antarc,



Thanks for posting here on the Apple Support Communities! This is a place where other Apple users can submit questions or respond to others to help lend a hand. Let's take a closer look as we do our best to provide some additional insight.  


We see you're having some issues with accepting the terms and conditions on your iPhone. Yesterday, Apple had a number of system services offline, however they should all be back online now as shown here: Apple - System Status


If you restart your iPhone now, does the same thing keep happening? 


Certainly keep us posted, we’re here for you every step of the way!



Take care.
