Do you get that error when using wifi or only when using your cellular data?
It 's also WiFi is error with data
Years later and Apple still has not fixed this??? This is why I avoid Apple products at all cost. Thank god this is a work device.
Thanks a lot man, solved my probs. u r the saviour.
OMG! Switching to cellular helped me. I'd tried all sort of other tricks, and in the end switching off wifi got past it immediately. Thanks.
Changing the date worked with iOS 9.1. Amazing the root cause hasn't been addressed by Apple in 2.5 years, but thank you for figuring out how to get around it!
Thank you Guys, I tried changing time to 1 year ahead and hard booting iphone. It solved the problem once i restored time setting to automatic.
Just want to share more fixing options.. Because I tried all of those suggestions, and none of them works permanently.
I have fixed it!!!!
I tried all those suggestions, changing date/time, reset phone setting, hard reboot, changing DNS, restore phone... each solution would fix the problem only temporary (at least for me!) and the bug still keep coming. Using cellular data to download the app in the beginning and switch back to wifi seems to help as well, but that's not convenient! I don't want to keep doing the same thing every time I download apps.
Here is how to fix it permanently (at least for me):
- Go to Settings/Cellular/ and turn off Wi-Fi Assist. That's all!!
- Sometimes you need to delete the apps that already caused the problem, before download them again on Wi-Fi with the Assist thing off.
You can switch it on later. But for me, once I switched it on, I was able to download a few apps, and then out of the blue, the problem came back! Then, I switched it off, the problem was gone. Also, be sure you delete the un-finish-downloaded apps before you download them again.
So, the story is that I have been using 4s for 3-4 years with none of this 'Unable to download app' problem. Then, once I used my Apple ID with my new SE phone (with the Wi-Fi Assist on). The problem occurred. Not only that, the bug also appear on my old 4s phone as well. That's very weird!! So, I thought that it has something to do with how the new phone communicate with App Store while downloading app. Now that I turn the Assisting thing off, my old phone is back to normal. 🙂
Hope this is helpful to you too!
I Have to ask you something, my IPhone has been putting a popup on the screen saying "ITunes Store not available for download, please try again later". The thing is, i never use ITunes Store, i havent even signed in to it. Any ideas on how to fix this?
