Cannot access my apps due to credit card info

Can someone answer my question. ??
I have a iPhone s. I tried to get into my apps or download a new app and my credit card info came up. It asked for my security code. I entered it and now it won't let me access it.

Generally when this happens it's because your credit card either a) doesn't have enough value too purchase a new app, or b) you've made a previous purchase which couldn't go through properly (money may have been spent while the purchase was pending). Best too check your credit information for how much credit you have on there.

Is there a way to download free apps. without using credit card?

The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.

Not with your current Apple ID. You have to create a new Apple ID using these instructions from Apple, exactly as written;

Cannot purchase Creative Cloud due to credit card problem

Hello,
I first purchased Student and Teacher Edition Creative Cloud in August but due to the hacker incident here at Adobe, my credit card was annulled. Due to financial problems, my last payment was in October and eventually, my subscription expired.
Now I'd like to renew my subscription as I now have a viable credit card but I simply cannot! I tried at least 8-10 times to purchase Creative Cloud / renew my subscription but I always got the same answer: they are unable to confirm my credit card.
I tried this both on Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome, and I also tried with my parents using my mother's credit card but that didn't work either. I also tried shutting down and restarting my computer.
I'm still studying at the same school, that information hasn't changed. I'm from Finland.
Please help! Thank you!

Thanks for your answer, but how about my account with serial numbers to cs6 and LR4? Will they be lost if I create a new account? I just want to purchase Creative Cloud as danish person with my credit card.

How can I access free apps without a credit card?

I'm trying to create an Apple ID for some elderly folks that want something as simple as checking the weather and potentially other free apps but at no point can I create an account without a credit card, an idea that's very bad for folks that are not at all technically savvy.
Various guides suggest there's a 'none' option for payment type if you attempt to create the account with the need to obtain a free app in the app store but this option does not exist, we only have three credit card options. If I change to USA, I have more options like Paypal but none of them is 'none'. Also tried the UK, still didn't work.
Can anyone advise me as to how we can 'review terms' without entering a credit card? It's difficult for me to explain they can't do as much as they want to do with their new $400+ purchase because they need to use their credit card for authorization.

Edit : your last reply appeared as I was typing this.
I've just tried the steps and they worked ok for me, I've got the 'none' option for a new account e.g.
These are the steps that I used to give people (free apps are now labelled as 'Get') : Re: i want to create an appleid and i dont have credit card. the instruction that you discribe at the top is not working…, and that is what I've just used.
If you update the primary email address on the account that you've already created then you should be able to try using to create another account - you can change the primary email address by logging into it via http://appleid.apple.com, or by logging in via the Store > View Account on a computer's iTunes. You can create a 'throw-away' email account to put on the existing account via http://gmail.com or http://hotmail.com
I'd be surprised if the info that you've just been given about gift cards or credit cards is correct, iTunes gift cards aren't available in a lot of countries (and they are country-specific) and a lot of people don't have credit cards - they'd effectively be preventing a lot of people form having accounts.

Won't update apps due to credit card declined ????

I've been trying to update some apps on my iPad and iPhone ( free apps) but every time I try it makes me update my billing info which is correct ( currently no funds avail tho :( ). What do I do. ???

you can attempt to change the billing option to none rather than have a credit card on file. If there is an issue where you paid for something and didnt have the funds this can also cause it to force you to update your billing to pay the balance you still owe for a purchase. Let me know how it works out when you switch the billing option to none.

I cannot access online statements for my credit card account when using firefox, but have no problem when using safari.

When I attempted to check the monthly statement for my credit card account and clicked on "See statement", the next screen that appeared, which was labeled Online Statement", was blank. In the past, I have never had any problems with this. When I checked with the bank that issued the credit card, the representative I spoke with said that it was a browser issue and that, since I was working on a Mac, I should try using Safari. When I switched to Safari, I had no problem bringing up my statement. But I would prefer to be able to use Firefox to obtain information like this, since it's the browser I always use.

Can you upgrade your browser to Firefox 12 and check?

I'm setting up a mac for my kids. I don't want a credit card associated with the app store, but I want access to free apps for them. How do I sign up for the app store without a credit card? I already found a tutorial online, but it is outdated. The option for "none" is no longer there.

My ipod wont let me download an app without putting credit card info first

Please help!!!

Apple requires a valid payment metod even for free apps unless you set up the account by:
Create a NEW account using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.

It's a network issue, not an account balance issue. Troubleshoot your network or just restart your iPod and/or router, try connecting to the Store a bit later, or try the download in iTunes on your computer and then sync the purchase to your device.

Had you never backed up the phone before? When you saw the iTunes logo and cable, the device was in recovery mode. The data was already lost. The only way to recover from that is to restore the device, which will delete all of your data. You will only be able to restore to your last backup, whenever that was. Sorry this happened, but this highlights the importance of doing regular backups. The backup is the only protection you have against a problem like this.
