Apple TV- "Verification required..."

Even though my account is all set up & my payment info. is all verified; I see "Verification Required... Before purchase... at iTunes Store... via computer... of payment info." I get this whenever I try to rent a movie or buy a TV episode w/ my Apple TV. Has anyone dealt w/ this issue?
THANX for any ideas!

Have you ensured that the security code is entered? That is usually what it is referring to.

If it is trying to verify your payment info, I would be willing to guess that it is looking for the security code for your credit card. Did you credit card just get replaced lately or the expiration date change? When is the last time that you updated your payment information in iTunes?

I can´t rent movies on Apple TV I keep getting this message: Verification Required Before you can make purchases, you must go to the ITunes Store on your Computer and verify your payment information.

Thanks

Have you paired your Apple Tv with your iTunes account? That's how rentals and purchases are billed. If, however, you have already done that it is possible that there is a glitch in the system. I've had that happen occasionally and it usually goes away if I reset Apple Tv. On one occasion that I didn't work so I had to go to iTunes and deauthorize and then authorize this computer. Also, check to see if your Home Sharing is on (under File in iTunes). Hope that helps.

Can't buy content directly through Apple TV: message VERIFICATION REQUIRED

I installed my Apple TV (not the new one) last month, it works great as long as I buy and download into my Macbook Pro and then transfer to the ATV.
When I try and purchase directly through ATV (my preference) it says: VERIFICATION REQUIRED BEFORE YOU PURCHASE MAKE YOU MUST GO TO THE APPLE STORE ON YOUR COMPUTER AND VERIFY YOUR PAYMENT INFO.
I have tried everything with no luck. I asked for help a month ago and the tech sends me answers that are not even about this problem so I am asking again hoping for an answer that can remedy this.
1. How do I verify my payment info? I have tried everything, re-entering over and over, I can buy on the computer no problem.
2. This should be so simple, please help.

I finally received a response from Apple with a correct method to fix this:
Hello B,
I understand that you cannot make any purchases using the Apple TV because it keeps asking you to verify the payment information. What you would need to to is remove the credit card on the computer and save that. Then go in and add the credit card back to the account. Once you have finished that go ahead and sync the Apple TV with the computer. Once you have competed that the Apple TV should not be giving you anymore problems.
Thanks for using iTunes and have a great weekend!
Sincerely,

You then need to go back to your ATV try and buy something, you will get the same message as always... then go back to your computer and, go to the Apple store, your account, your payment info and put in the Credit card verification code, press done and try to buy again... i was fixed then!

Verification required on Apple TV

I continue to get the message: verification required, when I try to purchase a movie on apple TV.
I have repeatedly gone back and reset my payment info.
This problem is saving me hundreds of dollars, as I cannot purchase anything on apple TV.
Maybe my problem should be the solution to money spent on apple TV?
this problem is so stupid and since I use all mac products, we are all headed to the infernal **** of stupidity in the IT world?
anyway, anybody else get this problem of verification required?
Thanks,
easy to use apple customer.

The verification often relates to confirming your credit card 3 digit security code in iTunes by logging into the account in iTunes on your computer - this is a newish thing from Apple when you purchase on new devices.
I found when I updated mine last that it wouldn't accept the update until I added my title which had reverted to blank.

Apple TV stuck on What's New or Verification Required screen after v5.1 update

After updating my 2 Apple TV 3 to v5.1, my Apple TVs no longer respond to remote commands though I do get a blink response from the boxes when selecting. The atvs periodically blink, the screens go black and return me to the screen that was up when it went black. In one case, it's the What's New screen. In the other, the Verification Required screen. I only got to the Verification screen by a lucky remote recognition after unplugging the atv and plugging it back in.
I have not tried restoring from iTunes. Cannot locate any of my microUSB cables. Any suggestions or solutions?

I have this problem too. It actually seems like the "What's New" screen is in front of the regular menu/navigation.
My original remote broke, and I've been using the Remote app. If I swipe left and right, i can hear the clicks. If I press to select, it sounds like I might be choosing an item from the menu... which I can't see because the "What's New" screen is in front and won't go away!

Apple ID verification on iCloud fails on both devices.

My Apple ID verification on iCloud is failing on both devices. I am tired of resetting a Password!
Device iPad
MC705C/A - Model
8.1.1 - Version
Device iPhone 6 Plus
iOS 8.1.1
MOdel MGAK2AA/A
PPlease help.

Thank you. I found a less drastic solution, even if it required me to read between the lines. At this page: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/ios.html, the first step reads, "Make sure your device is running the latest version of iOS." When I encountered my "Verifying" problem, iOS 8.0.2 had just been released.
So, what solved my problem was, I updated to iOS 8.0.2. After updating, the "Verifying" step completed, and I was able to access my iCloud account settings within the app.
I would prefer that Apple suggested that one reason I couldn't continue was that I needed to update, but other than that, I am OK with how things turned out.

Why is verification required thing popping up when I'm trying to update my apps

dear Apple I'm trying to update some of my a and it says verification required. The apps I got didn't cost money. Those apps were free. The worst part is that my iPad has this ******** program called eSpark. they block to much stuff. They request to many education apps. If anyone knows how to fix this let me know.Anothe thing is that I have no none option. And it says your card was declined try a different pay method. OMG APPLE FIX THIS AND COME OUT AND RELASE IOS 8.4! YOU BETTER FIX VERIFACTION REQURIED TO MAKE THAT ATOP POPPING UP WHEN IM UPDATING MY APPS.

Another ID will show up when downloading if that ID is signed in to the App store. You can sign out of the ID in settings-iTunes &App store, tap the ID and choose sign out. You can also sign out via the app store, choose featured, on the bottom left you will see the id, tap it and choose sign out. Then the download will prompt "Use existing Apple id", tap that and sign in with your apple ID. ** in both scenarios, the Apple ID will show as "greyed out" and will not allow you to tap if "Accounts" are set to "don't allow changes" in Restricitons.
For updates, another ID will come up if the app needing the update was downloaded by that ID. Choose cancel when prompted for the password and it will continue and ask for another ID if other apps dwonloaded with other ID need updates

One last doubt about the Verification Required message when trying to download anything.

Hello guys, so this is the thing.
Like a lot of people here I'm getting the annoying message "Verification Required: Before you can make purchases, you must tap Continue to sign in, then verify your payment info". OK right now my son is using my iPad and I setted my credit card payment info to None, so he can't purchase anything. He's just trying to install free apps like messengers, alarms, free games and other free stuff, but so far he only installed Yahoo Messenger, which is a free app like everybody knows. However we haven't be able to download anything else because that message which prevents to download anything. Also I'm in a new address and can't update my personal data because I have selected the None option in credit cards.
So this is my doubt: If I checked None, it's suppossed I can't pay for anything, which is good to me right now because my son is ussing my iPad so, why I can't even download the free ones? I mean that's not logical to me.
Why I can't navigate through the App Store getting free apps without this annoying message which prevents me to install even free apps?
I just don't understand it.
I hope anyone can help me.
Best regards.

Try 3 things -
1. Double tap on the Home button, scroll through the appas until you get to the Apps Store one, press on it until the minus sign appears on it and then press of the minus sign. Go back to your Home page, selec the Apps store nd try again.
2. Do a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank power On again in the normal way.] It is absolutely/appsolutely safe!
3. Delete your card details in your Account details and try again.

Verification Required HELP!!!!

Hello everyone in the apple community, so recently i got this little problem with my itunes account but then it became a nightmare. So i got this prepaid Visa credit card as a gift. It has 25 bucks loaded in it, that means once you used the 25 bucks, you cant use it anymore. I used 15 bucks before and i had 10 remaining. So i decided to buy some gems in clash of clans using the credit card. The gems costed $6.49 so i had $3.51 remaining. Then i accidentally pressed it again then trouble happened. It just kept saying there was a billing error with your previous purchase. Everytime i need to download an app, it would say verification required. When i press continue it would just force me to type another payment type. But the thing is i don't have a credit card with me and i cant purchase gift cards at the moment. I searched it online before and i think paying the debt is the only way. Is there anyway to bypass this???? I cant even download or update apps at the moment. And also, there is no "none" option for me to choose. If any of you can help me, it would be greatly appreciated.

If you owe iTunes money then you won't be able to download anything else (including redownloading past purchases and app updates) until you've paid what you owe - and you won't potentially get the 'none' option until it's paid. You don't have a store nearby that sells iTunes gift cards ?

IPhone 3G -- 4 upgrade; apps won't update/install - verification required?

I upgraded my 3G to a 4. I backed up the 3G, went to the AT&T store, they switched over to the 4. I plugged the 4 back into my PC and restored the 3G backup. I had to re-enter some passwords but otherwise everything was restored.
However, I cannot install or update applications. When I try to do this, it says "Verification Required" and I have to hit "Continue." Then it says "Sign In Required" and I hit continue and enter my iTunes MS password. Then it pops up a credit card screen and it wants my 3-digit ID. I enter that and it Done and it pops up an "Address Verification" screen to pick my county.
At this point it gets stuck in a loop and no matter how many times I pick my county, it clears my entry and goes back to that screen.
I tried logging out and back in on the phone, no luck.
I tried updating from Settings, no luck.
I tried logging out and back in from iTunes, which let me enter all of this information, but the phone still keeps asking for it.
I have restarted the computers.
I have restarted the phone.
Unlike the other thread about this, I'm not using multiple accounts. This is very frustrating and irritating.

i can verify that this abject failure occurs on a 3G iPhone running iOS 4 as well.
do NOT NOT NOT "upgrade" to iOS 4 unless you absolutely must.
i get no requests for verification or agreement to boilerplate.
i get no password prompts.
i have no restrictions in iTunes or on the phone to prevent apps installing.
i have restarted phone and computer repeatedly.
and yet the imbecilic software simply grays out the Apps tab in iTunes/Devices/my phone. it's not even as if it lost connection to the phone - if i rearrange apps on my phone itself, when i reconnect to iTunes the grayed-out App tab reflects the changes. music syncs fine. it just won't let me
sync apps.
oh, and iOS 4 brought back the infernal 2-second delay every time you touch the screen in iPod mode. really effing annoying whenever you scroll in cover flow, or actually just all the time.
it makes me think Apple might actually have become evil enough to sabotage customers' old hardware in order to drive new iPhone and iPad sales. the less-cynical view might be that they're just really busy fixing antenna issues, but you can no longer be sure.

Verification required

Hello i have an issue which does not allow me to download from appstore. It always says Your payment method was declined. Please enter another payment method even if i write my payments details correct. Also appears verification required . What should i do?thanks

Make sure that you're using a true credit card, not a debit card, and that the card was issued in your country and has a billing address in your country, and that you're using the iTunes Store of your own country. You cannot use a credit card from another country, a debit card, nor can you use the iTunes Store of another country.
If all that is correct and you're still having problems, go here:
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store.

Verification required before renting a movie

I am trying to rent a movie, and cannot get beyond the "Verification Required". All my information is up to date in my Apple profile.

This isn't a podcasting issue - the area this forum is devoted to - and you would do best to ask in the iTunes for Windows forum.
