"Some users who tried to download apps from Apple's App Store Thursday found themselves unable to do so.\nAlthough users can still browse for apps, clicking on \"download\" or \"update\" buttons yields the message, \"Cannot connect to iTunes Store.\"\nIt appears to be a global issue; Harry Hirsch in Germany said he was experiencing issues, as were colleagues at both Mashable's New York and San Francisco offices. Rene Ritchie in Montreal said he was unaffected, however.\n\n\n\nApp Store won't let me download anything... It keeps saying \"cannot connect to iTunes Store\" and none of the fixes I found online work. :(\u2014 Straggler (@taylorberman) November 15, 2012\n\n\nCan anybody else not download apps from the app store right now?\u2014 Cody Kolodziejzyk (@codyk) November 15, 2012\n\n\n@foresmac Confirmed. Doesn't work here in Germany.\u2014 Harry Hirsch (@schurkenstadt) November 15, 2012\n\n\n\nIt's been a bad day for Apple, whose market cap dipped below $500 billion Thursday morning for the first time since it passed that milestone in February.\nWe've reached out to Apple and will update this story with any further information.\n      window._msla=window.loadScriptAsync||function(src,id){if(document.getElementById(id))return;var js=document.createElement('script');js.id=id;js.src=src;document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0].parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);};\n_msla(\"//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js\",\"twitter_jssdk\");"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
