I found this on another site and it fixed my problem:

Opened iTunes. Clicked on Preferences and under Parental Controls disabled access to the iTunes Store. I then checked the box to allow access to iTunes U.
When I tried loading the store this time, it sent me directly to iTunes U with no problem.
I then went back into Preferences and enabled access to everything and tries reloading the store.

Voila. I can now connect to the whole store with no problems. Strange

I had a similar problem. I found that because I had started to use a proxy server for IE but not for Mozilla I could connect to the internet with Firefox but not with the iTunes store. The solution was to uncheck the use of the proxy server in IE. Then iTunes can connect.

Hey, I think I might know the answer to your problem. Mine wasn't working either. I didn't realize though that my virus protection (Blink Personal) was blocking access, therefore if you have a virus protector click on it, scroll until you find itunes-will be in programs, and click/unclick the block sign-may be in a different form though, so fiddle around with it.
Hope it helps!

Check your LAN settings. I have Firefox and Internet Explorer. I use Mozilla but Internet Explorer was set as my default, remove that setting and it will start to work.

Right ok.....the reason your import issue isnt workin is becasuse who may have inserted smthing else b4 and then you clicked the ticked box at the bottom. But for now. go on settings and try to find smthing wich allows you to untick boxes you dont want....however about the internet thing....i am supposing that the compani that gives you internet has blocked u alllowing on that program either of high usage.....have a look!!!

anything else!!

(i know I wasnt a good help)

that usually happens when your internet isnt plugged in... both the downloading of the music and the itunes store thing - if your internet is working though.. I dunno whats wrong ... sorry :/
