Go to Settings-iTunes & App Stores and then select your Apple ID. Now sign out. Turn your iPhone completely OFF. WAIT 30 seconds and then turn ON your iPhone. After you e booted to your homescreen, go back to Settings-iTunes & App Stores and then sign in. See that helps.

I am supposing that you are trying this on your phone based on what 'D instructed you to try. Have you tried to do the same thing on a PC or Mac assuming you have iTunes installed and see if you can get in that way. If you can with your original Apple ID then download the apps you want and then sync them to your phone that way.

Simple things first, have you restarted the phone? Reset network settings?

I hope this initial bad experience doesn't discourage you. The 4S is a great phone and iMore is a great community to learn a lot of stuff.
Good Luck iceyhielo
