Cannot connect to iTunes Store: THE SOLUTION

Sometimes you cannot install/update apps anymore and you get the error "Cannot connect to iTunes Store". There's a very simple solution for to this annoying problem.
Go to Settings > General > Restrictions.
Enable restrictions. Wait 5 seconds. Disable restrictions.
It should now work!
If this doesn't work those are other things you should try.
Alternative #1
Reset your network settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
and then restart your device.
Alternative #2
Go to Settings > Wifi > {YourWiFiNetwork}
Press on the blue arrow and choose Forget this Network
Restart your device and retry.
Alternative #3
Uninstall and then reinstall iBooks.
Alternative #4
Make sure date and time are correct.
Go to Settings > General > Date & Time.
If the option exists, turn off Set Automatically.
Verify the time zone and time are correct. If not, adjust them.
If everything was correct and the option exists, turn on Set Automatically.
Alternative #5
If your device is jailbroken delete the file /private/var/mobile/Library/Caches/com.apple.mobile.installation.plist
And then restart your device.

This worked for my iphone:
Settings > Safari > Then reset the cookies, Reset the Cache, and Reset the History. Now turn the iPad off and then on again.

None of these solutions worked because I believe iTunes is the culprit, not the network. I downloaded music over the weekend, and something is stuck. Network works fine for all other net-related apps - just iTunes cannot connect. I guess that's one way to stop buying music and apps: let Apple charge you $30 to fix the problem!

Brilliant. Only solution I found that worked.

I've tried dozens of things. It just happened to me 5 minutes ago. I tried the jailbreak alt. 5 but the file isn't there.

If that doesnt work - go to Settings>General>Date and Time - set the date ahead by a few months. Try to update again. If you get an error message of any kind - go back and change the date and time to automatic again. Then try again.

YES! Well recently I've been traveling and timezones changed, probably it was then when it started to happen, so I've changed date manually ahead by couple months, then restarted iPhone, then back again to automatic and works like a charm. THANKS GUYS!

When I try to start transfer files in my iphone then I receive iphone error. I didn’t find what this is and why it occurs? I again tried to do this no use. After searching a lot when I come to this page and use this third party repair tool then I have solved all my iphone problems and today my iphone transfer file easily.
