  • Why do I need a credit card to download a free app?

    Why do I suddenly need a credit card to download a free app? Is this something new or are we somehow getting hacked?

    This is nothing new. A valid form of payment is required unless you originally set up your Apple ID to not require a credit card. Check your Apple ID account. Maybe the expiration date ID past.

    Are these raw images or JPEG images? If they are raw images are you using the sRaw feature? I don't know if your model has that option. Just looking for possibilities.

    Do u have to have a valid credit card to download the free stuff

    No, there are instructions on this page for creating a new account (the instructions won't work with existing accounts) without giving a credit number : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534 e.g. select a free app in the store and click on 'create Apple id' when 'buying' it

  • App store not accepting my debit card. But I'm still being charged?

    So Ive been trying to buy this app for a while now so I bought a $15 app store gift card. The app is 14.99 so I apparently forgot about tax. So I try to put my debit card info in (paypal) and it keeps getting denied. Next I checked my paypal acount to see that I have a few 1 dollar charges pending and I'm not really understanding whats going on. This even happened after havin to "identify" myself before downloading a free app. So whats going on? BTW Im on an iPad 3 ios 5

  • Mac App Store not accepting my login details. Help!

    For some reason, after updating to 10.6.8 for the upcoming release of Lion. I could not download any apps and every time I attempted to login it prompted me "Your device or computer could not be verified. Contact support for assistance." I can confirm that I am entering the right password since it works perfectly on iTunes, that I deleted the preferences com.apple.storeagent.plist and com.apple.appstore.plist, and that I never installed Fruit Menu or APE.
    Thanks to anyone who is willing to help

    Don't count on cust support . . .
    Same problem, multiple times.  It keeps wanting me to reenter my credit card info (all I want is a free app) and then when I DO enter it I get the "technical difficulties, try later" message.
    I tried the app store/itunes support link (apparently they are the same thing) and the response/form letter I got back was all about iTunes (which I clearly indicated was working fine for me) and didn't give any clue about my problem with "technical difficulties" logging into the App Store.  So I wrote back pointing out that they didn't even come close to answering my question . . . and got another form letter on how to PAY to get support . . . all I wanted to do was download a free app from the mac store.
    I'm going to give them a week or so to iron out the obvious bugs in their "new" toys and then try again.  I do have applecare with my new mac so if all else fails I better be able to get help through them . . . but this is VERY annoying.
    Please post back if any of you have better luck!

  • App store not accepting valid payment info

    i've had an issue similar to this two other times, both of which were solved once my debit card balance was higher than $0. this time, it won't accept my valid payment info and it says it's due to an error in a previous purchase, which i don't even know what it is or why there was even an error to begin with. now because of this, i can't update any apps or even install free ones.

    Contact iTunes Support to resolve the matter. Debit cards are not accepted in all areas - and
    some areas that previously accepted debit cards no longer do. Until the matter is resolved,
    you will not be able to download anything including updates and free items. Start here:

  • TS2446 I am having problems with mt App Store. I can't download any free apps because it's telling me my Apple ID is disabled what can I do

    What can I do I have gotten the security problem solved so when can I start back downloading my free apps. And do I have yo give my credit card information in order to download free apps

    You might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
    You might then need to log out of your account on your phone by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it
    For your security questions, if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) on your account then the steps half-way down this page will give you a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699 (you can also try this link if you can't get your account enabled via the above)
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use.
    For the credit card, how was the account created ? Unless the instructions on this page were used when creating the account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    then you will need to enter credit card details before the account can be used to download any item from the store. If you do enter credit card details then you should be able to remove it afterwards : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1918
