Why can't I get on the iPad app store?

Parasyte: I literally cannot get the iPad App Store to load on my iPad. When I go into settings and try to select the store I get a non-logged in error. So of course I then try to log in and it just doesn't work. I'll click a link that brings me to the app store and then get an invalid error. (2 answers)
