Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

This works for some users. Not sure why.

Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

My son complained that he was unable to connect to iTunes which resulted in an error 'cant connect to iTunes' and in addition certificate errors, some web sites unable to load.

I Found the date/time was incorrect. It was about 10 days off and in the past. I manually went into the settings updated the date/time to the current one and everything started to work again. See sometimes it's the most obvious or simple issue but we all tend to overthink things.
