iTunes is a digital jukebox and media player, available for Microsoft Windows and Apple’s iOS operating systems.
iTunes syncs content between iOS devices, computers, and Apple TV, allowing users to download and purchase music, videos, TV shows, and apps.
In addition to syncing content, iTunes allows users to store media on their computers.
iTunes also has parental controls to prevent users from purchasing or accessing certain types of content.
Sometimes, a user might encounter iTunes errors, such as iTunes Store won’t restore, iTunes Store can’t restore, or iTunes Store can’t verify purchase.
When these errors occur, it’s important to be able to restore iTunes.
- iTunes allows you to restore your account from a backup, but this method only works when your account is synced on another computer.
- If the restore process does not work, here’s how you can restore your account from your iCloud backup.
