Is the iTunes Store down?

YES! Did you figure this out?

I'm having the issue as well. I suspect it's an issue on the iTunes Store side.

i'm having the same problem too. I can't access iTunes on my phone or computer....it has to be down

Yes. Same here. Trying to update apps and login fails. Have to wait till they re-boot the login system...

I'm having this problem too. Has anyone heard anything from Apple?

Came here for same problem... trying to update 2 apps and will not acccept password in iPod nor iTunes program with errors of connection problem... no connection problems at all on 12MB cable. Always blaming the user instead of service.

Glad some others have posted so I know it isn't the unit.

Super frustrating... Especially when a preorder is available!

Same here.

I also have the same problem. I was in the process of downloading a rental movie from the itunes store. Now it is gone and I am not able to "check for available downloads" or even view my account. I did some research trying to figure out the problem. I cam across this old thread from 2007. Apparently they had many similar issues then. I ran through the "remedies" throughout the thread and none worked: proxies, networkinterfaces, modem reset, software update, keychain assitant, etc. None worked. Hopefully the iTunes Store is temporarily down at the moment. At this point I will wait. If anyone comes across a solution for this problem, or hears of a statement from apple concerning the issue...please post.

Yeah, ive got the same issue. i am trying to redeem an itunes gift card so that i can download Lion, but the redeem screen nor my account screen will load. The home page of iTunes loads, but i cant redeem my gift card.

yeah, same thing isn't working here either.

YES iTunes is down😠 here in Orlando, FL 2. I wanted to watch a movie on one of my computer that is connected to my HDTV but when I tried to play it, it wanted me to authorize the computer but when I tried to I got the message..."We're sorry, We cannot complete your request on the iTunes Store at this time. Please try again later" 😠 I have been tiring for 2hrs now. Pluck this *****😠

Same here on my 3GS, for a moment I panicked thought something was wrong with my phone but when I opened iTunes on my laptop and encountered the same problem I knew something is up.

Awhile back ago I had a similar problem and fixed it with changing my DNS servers. Now it doesn't work anymore, although they were two slightly different problems to begin with.

So this must be related to why my Apple TV couldn't find my computer earlier?

i'm having that Issue to 😟
