HT201303 Why am I asked for account details if I want to download a free app?

Why am I asked for account details for a free app?

For the App Store you need an Apple ID with a credit card tied to it.
Apple will make an Authorisation Holds for a $1 to verify credit card information but will be not charge.

Email requests purportedly from Apple asking for account verification details, This includes a request for everything from email address to bank account sort code. This can't be for real! Is it?

Tried Hard but unable to authorize as it ask again and again for account details...any solution

not sure if you found a solution, but i am currently having a problem with playing "street fighting man" on beggars banquet. i'm continuously being asked to authorize my computer, and when i do, the song doesn't play and i'm still asked to authorize my computer.
i have followed the steps described in the apple support page "itunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play itunes store purchases" and none of them worked. i have a PC- windows 7 and the current itunes 10.6.
on my itunes email receipt there is a link "report a problem" and i went through the series of forms and dialog boxes to report a problem. under account, purchase history, one can report a problem of a purchase.

Hello Trisha cottle,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information, take a look at:
Why can’t I select None when I edit my payment information?

When you create a new store account or sign in with an existing Apple ID (that you haven't used in the store), you must provide a payment method.
Have a nice day,

In iTunes, click "Store", sign in with your Apple I.D. After singing in, click "Store" again, select "View my Account", re-enter your password and your account info will be displayed.
Click "Edit" in front of "payment information" and select "None"

BT asking for bank details over the phone

On Friday evening I received a call from someone saying they were from Bt.
The caller said my bill hadnt been paid and if I didnt pay it now my service would be suspended, (I was moved from quarterly billing to monthly and my direct debit had been cancelled an was now whole bill payment monthly).
When I asked where the caller was from he said the Philipines, alarm bells started ringing. I asked to speak to someone in the UK and was told I could not be transferred, I then asked for someone in the Uk to call me, again I was told it wasnt possible as they had no contact with the UK.
A call from someone asking for bank details immediately makes me suspicious, (theres lots of scams out there).
Why is it not possible to speak to someone in th UK?
Bob

Mail ask for the password all the time

Hello.
For the last month I´ve been experiencing problems with my mail. It ask me for the password every few seconds. I´ve have already tried all the solutions published at the help page in apple the site, but the problem is still on.
Could anyone of you give some help.
Many thanks.
PS: if someone could send me an answer in spanish, it could be easier for me.
Thanks.

Hola Luis.
I’ll reply in English, amongst other reasons because that allows me to copy & paste between posts, but let me know if there is something you don’t fully understand. You can post in Spanish if you want. BTW, you can make your life easier in these forums by going to System Preferences > International and moving English to the top of the list. The next time you launch an application, it'll be all in English.
Open /Applications/Utilities/Keychain Access, choose Keychain First Aid from the application menu, and proceed to repair the keychain. If that doesn’t work, you may try removing the password entry from the keychain and letting Mail create it again.
Note that Mail often doesn’t correctly report what the problem really is. If Mail can connect to the server but cannot log into your mail account for some reason, it’ll ask for your password, regardless of whether that’s really the problem or not. Don’t keep entering the password every time, because that’s not the problem (click Cancel instead, and take the account back online afterwards).
Some ISPs refuse connection attempts if they are too frequent, for example, or limit the number of simultaneous connections that are allowed from the same IP address, or the account may have become full, or there might be a problem with the network, or there might be a problem with the server... If the latter (i.e. if there is a problem with the network or the server), the problem will probably fix itself after some time for no apparent reason.
Actually, if Mail asks for the password every few seconds, then you’re probably checking for mail too often, and that alone could be the reason you have this problem. What’s the time interval chosen in Preferences > General > Check for New Mail? If it’s set to Every minute, try changing it to Every 5 minutes.
Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Network, choose Network Port Configurations from the Show popup menu, and make sure that the configuration used to connect to Internet appears at the top of the list.
Also, try using a different method to connect to Internet, if possible, or connecting the computer to Internet as directly as possible, i.e. bypassing any routers that might be present, using an ethernet cable instead of wireless, etc., and see whether that makes a difference.

When trying to update apps it asks for account password but it doesn't show my account. Help!

When trying to update apps it asks for account password but it doesn't show my account ID, it shows my dad's. How can I fix this so I can sign in?

It sounds like the apps were purchased using your dads account, so they will have to be updated using that account.

iCloud backs up your iOS device (not your Mac) automatically. You can remove the backup:
http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mm122d3ef202
and it will not back up again. This will not affect a backup made using iTunes. The notice you see refers to calendars, contacts, iWork documents and so on, which live on the server and are read from there by your Mac, and so will obviously disappear if you turn iCloud off altogether (which you don't need to do) or turn off Documents (which you don't need to do either).

When it asks for account information does it mean your internet account info?, When it asks for account information does it mean your internet account info?

Hi,
Having problems getting the Time Machine/Base Station set up at Home. When it asks for account info is it asking for the Internet provider account?
It's a stupid question I realize but the thing is remaining invisible to my computer after the set up doesn't work. I tried a factory reset which allowed me to reinput info but now it won't factory reset and it doesn't show up so I can't edit account info.
Any thoughts? Do I need to connet the computer and the Time Machine with a cable? I've been thinking it would work wireless but maybe that's where I'm off.
Thanks,

You should be able to setup over wireless. But IMHO only cables offer connections that are real.. that can be used without having to worry about being disconnected by the setup procedure itself.
Do the setup in full network isolation.. a computer with wireless off.. plugged by ethernet into a LAN port of the TC.. do another factory reset.
Make sure when the TC comes up again that the computer gets an ip 10.0.1.2 and then open the airport utility and do the setup of the TC..
The setup sometimes fails because it expects an adsl modem for instance to bridge and wants to use pppoe..this is not always possible.. it is necessary to run the TC in bridge mode if the existing modem is also a router.
Just select bridge.
And then setup the wireless via the wireless tab and create a wireless network.
Otherwise if you have a pure modem like cable.. you can put the TC in DHCP + NAT mode.
But it is unlikely the auto setup would fail in that case.

I redeemed my cards but its still asking for payment details.
