the itunes store is unable to process pu… – Apple Community

I recently began experiencing the exact same error.

It is on my iPad 4 (running iOS 10.3.3). It began a week or two ago.

I noticed it because I frequently re-download the same app over and over. The PBS Kids Games app has been crashing regularly for about the last two or three months. It could be fixed, though, by deleting and reinstalling the app. All other apps worked fine.

This delete/reinstall process worked reliably until about a week or two ago. I deleted the app, went to reinstall it, and received this message. I noticed that it was posted on ALL apps that I tried to download to the iPad. (whether I already owned the app or not, and whether it was a free app or an app that cost money–same error message. Completely unable to use the App Store to download any app.)

In an attempt to troubleshoot, I reloaded the iPad. The message persisted, and because I just reloaded the iPad, I now have a stock iPad that I am unable to load ANY apps on, which is very frustrating. All stock apps other than App Store appear to work fine (Music, Safari, etc).

I put the iPad into DFU mode, downloaded a fresh image of iOS 10.3.3, and reloaded it through iTunes. No change in behavior.

I am able to download the same apps to my other newer iOS devices with no problem. My Apple account has a valid payment type attached to it (Paypal), which I use to pay for Apple Music and iCloud each month.

Help!
