My new iPhone 4s can download updates to previously installed apps (brought over from my old iPhone), but it cannot download a new app on my iPhone 4s. I get the "cannot connect to the iTunes store" error message whenever I try to download a new application. Has anyone else had this problem and overcome it?
iPad, iOS 5, Windows 7 (64bit) and iPhone 4s
FIXED! Going to Settings ==> Store ==> Signing Off ==> Signing back in using my Apple ID associated with the iTunes credit card fixed. I was previously signed in using the Apple ID associated to iCloud (____@me.com).

I have the same problem. I followed your advice, but when I went to "Store" it had me sign in with my apple id account and still told me "cannot connect to itunes store".
Before iCloud, I had the Apple ID, myname@verizon.net, for connecting to iTunes. When I signed up for iCloud, I was forced to create a second Apple ID, myname@me.com, which is the default ID the iPhone 4S was using for connecting to the iTunes Store. However, iTunes does not recognize the Apple ID, myname@me.com, because it is not associated to any credit card. So, once I changed the Apple ID in SETTINGS ==> STORE on my iPhone 4S back to the iTunes credit card associated Apple ID, myname@verizon.net, I could connect to the iTunes store. You cannot connect to iTunes if you don't have any credit card or bank account link to your Apple ID.
iPhone 4s can't connect to itunes
