Can't connect to iTunes

Since yesterday, I haven't been able to connect to iTunes. I can't update apps, download apps, or view the iTunes Store on my iPhone or my MacBook Pro.

I've tried restarting both, but hasn't helped. I have no issues connecting to wifi on either, nor to my cellular network on my iPhone. All other Internet tasks work fine, but I cannot access anything to do with my apple account.

Any ideas? I've spoken to apple support but so far they have not been helpful.

iPhone 5 on iOS 6.1.3
MBP (2009) on 10.8.3

This happened to me on both an iPhone and an iPad.

I had to log out of the stores in the settings app and log back in.

Appreciate the response!

Unfortunately I've tried that and didn't solve it. Still the same problem.

Have you tried logging in to http://www.icloud.com or http://store.apple.com/?

If it works at least you know your account is still active.

I can log into the apple store. Can't test iCloud.com since I'm not near my computer. My account seems fine. The App Store on my phone recognized new updates, but when I hit update it shows the loading bar (empty) but never loads at all. After a minute or so I begin to get the "can't connect to iTunes" message.
