I want to change my payment info but it keeps saying my security code is invalid. What's the security code?

The security code is the 3 or 4 digit code on your card - on most cards it's on the back of the card on the signature strip, but on some cards (e.g. Amex cards) it's on the front.
Credit card security code : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3541

I've been trying to update my apps but it keeps asking me to update my billing info. I retyped everything from my card and it keeps saying my security code is invalid. Any suggestions?

I've been trying to update my apps but it keeps asking for my billing info so i retype everything and it keeps saying my security code is invalid when i know its not. It is same card they had on file before and the same security code but now it wont take it and i cant update anything. HELP!

If you're positive the information is correct, ask the issuing bank why the transaction is being rejected.
You're getting this error because the store can not authorize the card with your bank.

Pease dont' waste your time with that useless article. Carolyn has been warned many times before to stop posting that and waisting people's time.
This error is a little generic at times and there are a few things that could be happening here. Please put in a ticket here for an advisor to check into details:

HT1918 It keeps saying my security code is invalid

I have tried to buy apps and even download free apps and it keeps popping up with my payment information. It says my security code is invalid which it is not. I've even cleared all my information and entered it all again. This is really frustrating for me and could really use some tips!

Is the address on your iTunes account exactly the same (format and spacing etc) as on your credit card bill : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646 ? If it is then you could try what it says at the bottom of that page :
If the issue persists, contact your credit card company and verify that they and any company they use to process credit card authorisations have the correct information on file.

Music I purchased on I Tunes is not available when I open ITunes in I Movie. I Movie says those files are "protected" and not accessible. What does that mean and can I change them to "unprotected" so I can use them in IMovie?

Most of the music that I purchased on I Tunes I bought and downloaded on my old I Mac which I replaced with this I Mac about 9 months ago. When I"m using I Movie on this I Mac and try to open I Tunes tab in I Movie, most of the files are not accessible because I Movie says those fields are protected. What does that mean and can I change those files to unprotected so they show up in my music in IMovie?
This I Mac is OS X version 10.9.5 Maverick, 2.7GHz Intel Core 15 processor, 8GB 1600MHz DDR3 memory.

Your older iTunes music purchases included DRM software to prevent sharing.

I want to change my billing address but it only says states i am not in the states

I am trying to change my billing address but it keeps says states and i am not in the states. how can i change my address?

For you to use the US iTunes Store you must have a billing address in the USA. You can change your country but then you will be using the iTunes Store for that country, and not everything will be available.
To change your country you need to click on Change Country or Region in the Account Information section of iTunes on your computer.

Type in the three digit code from the back of your credit/debit card to update your payment method/information. I had the same "security code invalid" response today... this is all it wanted me to do.

I keep getting this "text" saying, "It's time to change your ringtone". What does that mean? I can't get this other ringtone to download to my new iPhone 5s. Wjosten's earlier suggest didn't help. Sorry. I tried what he said to do, but I could not get the ringtone "coqui" to download to the phone after connecting it to the iTunes stores and backing it up. The ringtone in question is in my library, but I cannot copy it or move it to my iPhone. Hope somebody can help.

Whenever i try to sync my phone itunes says waiting for changes to be applies, what does that mean?

hi, i just got an iphone 5 today and whenever i try to sync it on my computer itunes says it is waiting for changes to be applied, what does that mean??

Hopefully is just says that for a minute or two ...
It just means that iTunes calculates what needs to be done, and then while instructing the iPhone to do these operations, it is "Waiting for changes to be applied."

I'm tried to enter my credit card info but it keeps saying declined I had this issue a few years ago but I forgot how I fixed the issue

I'm tried to enter my credit card info but it keeps saying declined I had this issue a few years ago but I forgot how I fixed the issue

If it's a credit card then is it registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, it was issued by a bank in your country and you are currently in that country ? If it is then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes support and see if they know why it's being declined : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management

Just got the 4S. I cannot get Siri to work. It says it cannot retrieve info from the server. What does that mean and how can I fix it to use it?

Siri always contacts her own server at apple. They may be performing maintenance or applying updates, should be back soon.

I want to put Lion on my computer but it asks what app I want to open it with. What does that mean?

I want to download lion onto my computer but the computer keeps asking me what app I want to open it with. What does that mean? How do you know what app to open it with? Help!

That isn't the way it worked for me.
Once I download the installer from the App Store, I was able to open it and install Lion.
I would suggest trying to download it again.
If the same thing happens again, you shopuld discuss this with the App Store Support.
