I'm being annoyed with not being able to buy anything from the AppStore.
This issue occurs with both of my accounts.

The strange thing is, I can download podcasts and buy songs in iTunes, but when trying to do this in the AppStore, it tells me "the host isn't available".

I already tried to uninstall iTunes with CleanApp, and re-install via Software-Update, but I still get the same troubleshooting-message.

The odd thing's that I'm able to get my stuff from my iPod Touch.

Does anyone have a clue?

(translated: Your request for iTunes Store couldn't be completed. The host isn't available.
An issue has occured, please try again some time later.)

UPDATE:
I tried to buy something, using a friend's log-in, but I still get the same message. While, that very same friend can buy things with my account on his computer.
Strange things are happening here, and I don't understand them :(
