I was looking to install an app ([1]Hipstamatic) that I had removed
   from my [2]Apple [3]iPhone. Apple had yet another example of the
   ineffectiveness of end-user license agreements in my way. I clicked
   through only to be stymied by "Connection Timeout" window.

   Various sources on-line say to check your date and time to make sure it
   is accurate. Mine was.

   Others said to reboot your device. I did with no noticeable impact.

   Yet others said to re-synch with [4]iTunes. I don't like iTunes. I
   don't use iTunes. I don't have iTunes. I don't even have a machine that
   can run iTunes. I rely on my kids' Macbooks if I absolutely need to do
   something with iTunes, otherwise I avoid it like the plague.

   The solution was to log out of the app store. It took me a while to
   find that option at the bottom of the main App Store page. I logged
   out. I logged in. Now I could click through to the install page.

   Hope this helps!
