WTF?? -- "The Apple ID you entered couldn't be found or your password was incorrect."

I know my damn password, as I type it often (app updates and such). Today, I can't download anything on my phone, and I keep getting the error message I wrote above.

I get the same error message when I try it in iTunes on my computer.

When I try the "Forgot password?" button, it takes me to a website that takes forever to load (if it even loads at all). There, I enter my Apple ID, click Next, only to be greeted with a different error message: "Fatal internal error occurred".

WTF is going on?

For Apple to be known as being so "user friendly", I sure have had a hell of a lot of problems any time iTunes is involved...

So how do I fix this? I can't update my apps, download new stuff, or even log into my $99 Developer account...

There seems to be an issue with iTunes at the mo .. sure it'll get fixed shortly

Same here - I think their server must have crashed
