How do I associate PayPal with my apple account

Hi, I used to be able to use Paypal to pay for iPhone apps in the app store.  Recently, when I try to buy or download a free app, I get an error message that says Paypal is not supported on my iPhone. I also have the Paypal app downloaded on my phone to use it for non-app store personal transactions  I can use Paypal successfully for other transactions such as Amazon, etc. If it matters, the change occurred on my iPhone because I disputed a Paypal transaction for the Apple Store, and when the situation was being resolved i received a message (email maybe? I forget) asking me if I wanted to stop using that vendor. I misunderstood the question, and  I chose "Yes," but did not realize it would mean Paypal was removed from my iPhone. How do I get my iPhone to support PayPal again? Thanks.

Menel, thank you, you got me headed on the road to fix this. To solve the "Paypal is not supported on this iPhone" problem, do Not go to apple.com, it will not help you. To fix the "Paypal not supported" problem:  Open iTunes on a computer (Not on your iPhone)  >  Store  >  View my account (and notice the email address next to it, is it correct?, it doesn't matter, go to the next step)  >  Enter your iTunes password  >  Payment type,click "edit"  >  (now look at the email address associated with the Paypal icon, is it correct?, it doesn't matter, go on to the next step)  >  click the Paypal icon (it will take you to Paypal website)  >  log into Paypal  > click Agree and Continue  >  make sure it says "You have successfully created a billing agreement."  Now go to your iPhone and download an app to make sure everything works correctly again. Yeah!!
If you have more than one Paypal account, and you want to use a different Paypal account than the one associated with the email address that appears as you go through these steps, when you get to the step >  Payment type, click "edit" >  (now look at the email address associated with the Paypal icon, is it correct?), IF YOU WANT A DIFFERENT PAYPAL ACCOUNT  >  click "To choose a different account click here" (It will take you to the Paypal website)  > change the email address listed to the address that is associated with the Paypal account you prefer to use, then log into Paypal using the password for that updated account address >  click Agree and Continue > make sure it says "You have successfully created a billing agreement." Now go to your iPhone and download an app to make sure everything works properly again.

    MY wife has an Iphone 4  and I have a 5. To date we have used one apple account to manage music purchases/library. I updated ny phone to the new OS version and all her texting is showing up on my phone.  I understand if i create an apple account for her I will not see her texts. Recently we bought a Mac and created a new apple account for her. How do I synched her phone with new apple account and get access to the music library under my account on the new MAC laptop  before I update her phone to the new OS?
    Going forward if I purchase music under my apple id and want her to have it on her device, how can I acheive that?

    You can continue to share an Apple ID for purchases.
    Sign her in to her new account here:
    Settings > iCloud > Delete Account (Keep on Phone if you want to transfer contacts, calendars, etc...) then sign in with her new ID
    Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > Apple ID > Sign out then in with new
    Settings > FaceTime > Apple ID > Sign out then in with new
    Use the same Apple ID here:
    Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID

    Can't be done. You need an internet connection to activate an iPod after restoring.
    If your restore via wifi (settings>General>Reset>Erase all setting and connect) yo either need to connect to the internert via wifi or connect to a coputer and setup via iTunes. The computer requires an internet connection
    - If you restore via iTunes
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    The computer needs an internet connection

  • How do I get two credit cards associated with my apple account?

    Is there a way to associate two credit cards with one apple account?  I have a work ipad that is associated with my corporate card but would like to download some movies and such for personal use and would like to use my personal credit card.  If I can't do that, can I have two apple accounts and use them for the same device?

    Sorry but no; it's one credit card at a time. If you want to use two cards in a single account, you will have to change card information in your account every time you switch.
    But yes, you can have two different iTunes Store accounts and use content from both on your iPad and/or computers without problems.

  • Owning 2 iphones with one Apple account has = Sync Problems.

    Owning 2 iphones with one Apple account has = Sync Problems.  iTunes is thinking my old iphone 4 is the same phone as my iphone 5C.  When I plugged in my iphone 5C it auto synced my 5C to iTunes and it wiped my 5C and restored it to the same content as is on my iPhone 4.  This is a big problem since my 5 year old has been using the iPhone 4.  It's all Mickey Mouse and Backyardigans.  (Total photo/app/contacts loss)
    I was able to update the 5C and restore from a 3 month old backup that is actually the content from the 5C but now when I plug in my 5C it wants to "setup as new phone" or "restore from backup"  What's going on?  I'm afraid to choose either option.
    How can I get iTunes to see these devices as 2 and not one?
    Can I use my Apple ID on both phones still or is this the problem?

    They were both displaying the same name in iTunes.  I changed the name of the iPhone 4 before the 5C was plugged in but it still went ahead with syncing it to the 4's data.

  • HT4847 I had a previous e-mail address associated with my Apple Account.  I change this, but Cloud did not update with the change.  Now I can't log-in under the old I.D. and when I try to provide a password or get through by providing my BD it says it is

    For some reason when trying to get ito Cloud, I can't get into my previous e-mail address to make changes, which I must do to delete it.  Cloud does not recognize my old password and the system does not seem to associate my BD with it.  I knowlonger have the old e-mail address associated with Cloud.
    I have a new e-mail associate with my Apple account and a new password.  The problem is trying to get Cloud to recognize my new I.D. 

    You have to delete the old account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

    Can I use PayPal with my iTunes account?

    Okay here's the thing... My bank credit/debit card is hooked up with my apple id/iTunes account, and right now my bank account has no money in it, so I cannot download any apps on my ipad. However I have money in my Paypal account and I would like to link that to my apple id. Any chance that's a possibility?
