Cannot connect to the real play.google.com

I'm not able to connect to google play.

in addition I'm getting the error mentioned in the title when attempting via browser.

Something is currently interfering with your secure connection to play.google.com.

any ideas?

Hello and welcome to the forums. I had that problem also thought someone hacked the system. This is a tablet you are on running windows 8 . if not post back

Thanks for the welcome BRAINZ2013.

No, this is is a Samsung Galaxy 7 running Android.

OK 2 ways to repair this one is to go into the settings and make sure you have the date in the correct formats and the date is correct . if not correct the date and go back to the Google play. If it still happened do a reboot with the WiFi connection still connected. .once back on try the Google play if still not working I recommend you to do a factory reset post back if you still having trouble

That was it @BRAINZ2013!
Looks like the boys had played with the date... :-(

Thanks for the help!

That's probably the most common reason for not being able to connect to Play, when date and time are wrong. Also causes problems when trying to connect to secure HTTPS sites as well.
