I'm getting the following error in the App Store when checking for updates:

"Cannot connect to iTunes Store"

It's happening on both cellular and Wi-Fi (see attached).

Anyone else getting this?

Can't Update Apps!

I have an iPhone which is iOS 6.0.1. This morning, when I saw an the notification in the App Store app, I went to go update it, but when I tapped the Updates icon, a message appeared saying "Cannot connect to iTunes Store." I can still download apps. I just can't update them. I've tried resetting my phone and logging in and out of my iTunes account but nothing's working. Help!

Yep, although oddly not on iTunes my mac. I downloaded an app on there and synced with the cable.

How terribly old fashioned!

Same issue with both Mac App Store and iOS App Store.

Yeah, I can access seemingly all sections of the iOS iTunes.app and all but the Updates section of the App Store.app. Odd indeed.

My post before after yours is the same problem! I'm forced to delete my apps now.

Fixed that for you. As for getting the updates, I'm just gonna wait rather then delete apps only to re-download them.

I've been seeing the same thing all morning. After killing the App Store.app and re-launching it didn't work, I restarted the phone but that, too, hasn't led to the Updates section loading. Other sections of the App Store.app seem to work fine, just not the Updates section.
