This is terrible! My iPhone is essentially bricked. I’m not trying to purchase or update anything...and I’m getting the pop ups within 2 seconds of closing out the previous pop up. Over and over and over. Hard resets do not help either. I cannot do anything with my iPhone...
Yeah, this is a bad time to set up a new device.
Best chill for a bit and do it later when stuff is back up and stable.

Try to make your way into Settings -> iTunes and app store and sign out of the app store. That should stop the madness.
Sign back in when it's reported the services are back up.
It happens each time an app with IAPs or subscriptions tries to contact Apple's sales servers.
Not possible

The App Store for iOS devices appears to be experiencing issues at this time, with many customers unable to access the store to make purchases and install updates to apps. It appears the iTunes Store is also affected.
Affected customers are getting a popup message that reads: "The iTunes Store is unable to process purchases at this time. Please try again later."

The App Store issues have been ongoing for approximately a half hour now, but no outage is listed on Apple's System Status page.
We'll update this post when the issue is resolved. Problems like this are often fixed quickly, so apps shouldn't be unavailable for too long.
Update: Apple's System Status page now displays issues with the App Store, Apple TV, iTunes U, iTunes Store, Volume Purchase Program, and Mac App Store.

It says only some users are affected so I guess I'm not, I've seen a few others with no issues too.
Happens whenever I switch apps. For example when , on my iPad, I switch from Facebook to HuffPo, the pop up shows up. Switching back to Facebook brings it up too. Or almost any other app, except mail. Weird.
Thanks Obama.
Thanks Obama.
I signed out of my iCloud account on my iPhone and now don't have any music on my phone. Can't put any on my iPhone until this is resolved
