I was trying to install Truphone and Skype on a coworker's iPhone when I noticed I couldn't search the App Store on his iPhone. Rich Tehrani also tried installing a gaming app I recommended called Blowfish, but it wouldn't accept his password.<br /><br />My IT administrator then proceeded to try and register a new iTunes account within the iTunes PC software for this iPhone and that wouldn't work either. Perhaps the <a href="http://news.cnet.com/8301-1023_3-10273852-93.html">Michael Jackson resurgence phenomenon</a> is overloading iTunes? According to CNET, "On iTunes, the Web's largest music service, 8 out of the top-10-selling albums for download were from Jackson, with a compilation album, "The Essential Michael Jackson" in the No. 1 spot."<br />]]>
      <![CDATA[Finally, after failing to register for a new iTunes account within iTunes, we were able to register/create a new account using the Apple website - <a href="http://store.apple.com">http://store.apple.com.<br /></a><br />If indeed Michael Jackson brought down iTunes, then he truly is the "King". The King of Pop and the King of iTunes.<br />]]>
