App store won't accept my password

App store wouldn't accept password, refused three times so I had to change it. Same thing happened again. Message says 'unknown problem'. Yet I can sign in to My apple ID and to this help page. What is going on?

Sign out of your account, restart the iPad and sign in again.
Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try again.

I have reset my password and my I cloud and App Store won't accept the new password

Normally it's the Apple ID that's tied to your content not your password (You can change your password every day if you want to). Try again and choose the option I forgot my password and your will get an e-mail how to go about it.

App store won't accept correct password

Only one of my devices won't download apps. The password is correct. I can even go to safari on the phone and log in to my apple Id there. It doesn't say my password is incorrect. Ive tried using an incorrect pw and it informs me it is wrong.. I have signed in and out. Closed all my apps, reset multiple times. Plugged it into iTunes and checked the account was right. It just keeps bouncing me back to putting in the password.

I have the same problem. App store dont accept my correct password. I reset the password. Finish all application. I try new session in settings. Not works.
I update to IOS 8 and dont work too.
And now, some applications doesnt work and I cant to update or install news.
Please, help me!!

HT204266 App store won't accept my password. My wife has an iPad also and it keeps bringing up her email address. How can I cure this?

How can I remove my wife's email address and password from my app store account? I am trying to update apps and it won't let me use my info. My wife has an iPad and an account, some way the info got on mymipad.

You can log out out of the currently logged in account on the iPad by tapping on the id in Settings > Store and you can then log in with your account - but if any of your wife's apps are on your iPad then only her account will be able to download updates to those apps as they will be tied to her account.

Mac App Store won't accept my password

Ok, well I sent tech support an email about this yesterday and never heard back, so I guess I'll give this a go...
The main problem is I can't access my account in the Mac app store. Everytime I enter my password its says "unkown error occured".
I did change my password yesterday before this problem arose, I don't know if that has anything to do with it or not, but the new password works in iTunes...

Forgot to mention - iCloud login in System Preferences works fine with the new password, further confirmatin that the password has definitely been changed.

Hello milkisoo,
Wow! Purchasing a new computer and monitor should be a fun and exciting experience, and instead, it sounds like it’s turned into a complete nightmare. I can only imagine your disappointment when you found two charges relating to its purchase on your debit card account, and I’m sorry for any aggravation this caused.
As I want to provide you some piece of mind, I pulled up your order number using your email address attached to the forum. After review of its payment information, I found we collected only one payment. However, when orders are first placed on BestBuy.com, a pending authorization should show up on your bank card to make sure funds are available for the order until it is fulfilled. From there, the authorization should drop off and the collection charge should appear. This is the case for your one charge of $1,051.69.
It also sounds like an error may have occurred when you initially attempted to place your order, resulting in one of your gift cards not registering properly and the order not being completed. Your card’s issuing bank doesn’t appear to have recognized this and pushed through the pending authorization. This occurred a second time when your account information didn’t quite match up with what we had on file. Please know that we haven’t ordered a collection of these funds and your issuing bank should release the two pending authorizations within 5 to 7 business days.
Thank you for posting.

ITunes store won't accept my password from my iPhone 5 this morning. Ideas? Know issues?

iTunes store won't accept my password from my iPhone 5 this morning. Ideas? Know issues?
And no matter how many times nor what I change the password to I cannot log in to purchase music.
Help!

I tried "resetting" my password, but b****y iTunes just keeps asking me for ANOTHER password, and won't accept the password I want to use! I'm getting mighty fed up with iTunes - I'm a senior citizen, and my memory isn't as sharp as it might have been, so passwords HAVE to be fairly simple and OBVIOUS to me. I can't just keep thinking up new passwords because they are getting more and more irrelevant, and I will NEVER remember them.
What am I supposed to do now?
I can't use my iPhone when I'm out of the house, because it won't recognise my new email address and password. I can't use BTFON because it needs my password, which I can't get iTunes to accept.
I can't get the bloody thing to do anything, and although it cost me £600 when I bought it 2 years ago, I'm not very happy with it any more because I just can't get the thing to do anything.
HELP!!!!

ITunes store won't accept my password

Just changed ISPs (from Orange Wanadoo to BTInternet. Had the 'engineer' come out and do all the connecting stuff because I ALWAYS get it wrong.
He said he had connected everything and all would be OK.
But it isn't.
I wanted to check email on my iPhone, and it wouldn't. Took my phone to an O2 shop (where I bought it from) and bloke there got it going eventually.
Back home, I want to download the BTFON app, but when I enter my iTunes password, it is rejected.
Can't understand what is going on, and getting very, very angry with it because virtually nothing works like it did.
Can anyone PLEASE tell me what to do to get my iPhone to accept an app download from iTunes?
Many thanks,
Bill

App store won't accept password for updates but will for purchases...

Password is 100% correct etc... The app store on my iphone 4s (latest OS as of today) will accept my apple id password for any purchase, but not for any update.
What's going on!?!?!
100% repeatable ... 100% infuriating

I contacted the store. Somehow in the process of adding multiple icloud accounts to my family I somehow purchased apps under one account that had the same email but different user name. I edited both account's passwords, made them similar so that if my ipad or iphone tells me I entered the wrong password I just enter the other passwords for the other account.
I wish Apple would have a better, cleaner way to manage accounts. I didn't know this second account even existed.

Why won't App Store won't accept my vanilla visa gift card for payment

Why won't App Store accept vanilla Visa card as payment

I'd call iTunes support and ask them. It's possible that the store is attempting for preauthorization beyond whats on the card (In other words, verifying that the car is worth $50 let's say when the card is only worth $25)
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
hopefully either iTunes support can help you or can direct you to a better place

On my iPhone, the app store won't accept my credit card code. The thing is that it worked before and now it doesn't work. Now I can't download or update apps. Does anyone know what to do?

I have a visa card and i used it on my apple ID and now the AppStore won't accept my code so now I can't update or download apps. Please help!!!! :(

This has happened to me in the past a couple of times. I can't say i have a definitive answer for you, but i believe it is a problem with the iTunes servers. I would recommend shutting off all devices connected to the account to be sure you are completely disconnected, then turn one on, connect, and try again. That worked for me last time i had the problem. The first time i just gave it a day and it was taken care of.
Good luck.

App store won't accept the code that apple sent me to redeem my free mountain lion?

it keeps saying that the code is incorrect but i copy it exactly how it is in my email.
thanks

You received two codes. One was in the first email, and included dashes. That is the code used to open a PDF file in the second email. That PDF file contains a long (12 digit, I think) code without dashes. That is the code you must use in the App Store to get your Mountain Lion.

App store won't accept my address

Hi - I just bought the iPad and went to download apps but for some reason it keeps telling me my street address in my billing info is wrong but it's not! Help!!! Is the app store just down?
Thanks!

You can log out out of the currently logged in account on the iPad by tapping on the id in Settings > Store and you can then log in with your account - but if any of your wife's apps are on your iPad then only her account will be able to download updates to those apps as they will be tied to her account.
