Q: passbook doesn't work

Hi.

 

After installing iOS6 I can't get Passbook to work.

 

I load it and my only option to click is App Store, which then loads the App store and says 'Cannot connect to iTunes Store'.

 

Suggestions?

    I found this under the help section of Ticketmaster. This will explain your issue. Most likely your Venue isn't supporting Passbook feature as of yet. See below, this is from their help section.

    "How do I use Passbook with Ticketmaster?

    To put your tickets into Passbook you'll need iOS 6 (or later) and the latest version of the app. For venues that support Passbook, you will see the Passbook option by going to "Orders" and selecting your event."

    Everybody don't forget also that mountain lion 10.8.2 added capability for you to add passes to passbook from Safari and Mail. Note that iCloud must be turned on to have this work properly.

     

    From the features list on 10.8.2:

     

     

    • From Safari and Mail on your Mac you can add passes to Passbook on your iPhone or iPod touch running iOS 6

    You have to make a purchase first then it will place your purchase in your passbook. FOR EXAMPLE: If you've made purchases before with Fandango you can view them at the bottom option of "Account". Once your in "Account" tap on "Purchases" then tap on one of your previous movie purchase(s). Then tap on the square barcode or scroll to the bottom of the screen and at either location it will say: "Add to Passbook". There you go!

    The Starbucks app was updated today to version 2.4, which now supports Passbook.

     

    I added it to my iPhone.  It was a little tricky to set up, so here are the steps:

     

    1.  Update the app to version 2.4

    2.  Open the app and go into MyCards

    3.  Tap Manage.  A menu should appear with one option being Add to Passbook.  Tap that.

    4.  It will go through a routine where the app shows you the card, confirms you want to add it to Passbook, and then does so.

     

    Hope this helps folks.

    You have to set your favorite Starbucks locations within the Starbucks app for it to automatically bring up your pass in passbook. It will only notify you and bring your pass to the lock screen at the specific locations you select as your favorites.
