HT1918 Request for valid security code

iTunes insist that I "enter valid Security Code" when I already have. I have re-entered all my card info to make sure it is right and I have ample credit available yet I keep getting the decline message and request to enter the right security code. I get this message on both my laptop and iPad. What am I missing?

Often there is another (billing) issue on your account. Contact iTS and they'll check it out.

hello, my itunes account keeps telling me to enter a valid security code from the back of my CC. i do and it keeps saying to enter a valid one. i tried 3 differnt cards???? pls helppppp

Usually there is some subtle difference other than the security code. E.g. your bank/credit card company says you live on Easy Street but you wrote Easy St. Compare your bank/credit card statement with the information you are trying to give Apple. If they don't match, for any reason, validation will fail with the same error message. No point giving the potential ID thief clues is there?

HT1918 My account has prompted me for my security code

I am unable to update my apps. To research the issue, I hardwired in and noticed my iTunes account was prompting me for a security code. After entering and re-entering, trying a new card and returning to the previous one, it tells me my code is invalid.
I have tried to contact Support but am receiving no resolution.

If it's the security code not valid, this will be better resolved by your bank. Have them check your account for a block or something. I'd also recommend contacting iTunes support one more time and have them review your account as well.

HT1918 Keeps saying my SECURITY CODE is not valid

From time to time Apple wants to update my payment information but when it asks for the SECURITY CODE... Once entered i get an error message saying my SC is NOT VALID. I know it is valid because I entered directly from my credit card.

Try here > iTunes Store: My credit card's security code or zip code does not match my bank's records

Please enter valid Security Code

My iTunes account wont let me download any apps or update them either because it says that my security code for my card is wrong. I have reentered everything about the card including the security code and it still keeps saying "Please enter valid security code". I'm looking at the security code and I dont know what to do about it. I was going to try and email Apple about it but I cannot find an email address for them and its complicated trying to contact them. How to do I fix this problem or email Apple about it?

I am trying to add a new credit card and it keeps telling me that I have to enter a valid security code...I have tried 2 different cards and it is doing the same thing. How do I get past this?

I guess it has been a year since I last purchased something on I-tunes and my account is saying that they couldn't authorize my card for some of my purchases. I am trying to add a new credit card to clear this up and it keeps saying that I have to enter a valid security code. I have tried 2 different cards and I get the same thing. I have also added an I-tunes gift card and that isn't clearing up the money that I owe. It is showing that I have a $25 credit for that. How do I fix this, I have been trying for days and all I have got from the e-mail tech support is that its my credit card issuer that is causing the problem. Thats not correct because one of the credit cards that I am trying to use, is a prepaid Visa gift card. I know that these work on I-tunes because I have used them before in the past. I am getting very frustrated with this whole process, I just want to clear up my account and buy some new music!! HELP!!

You probably ran into blocks & locks.

Security codes
The credit card security code is a unique three or four digit number printed on the front (American Express) or back (Visa/MasterCard) of your card.

That refers to the 3 digit security code on the back of your credt card, not a security code for the iPad.

The "backup password" refers to a password you created when you elected to encrypt your iPhone's backup. If you cannot remember the encryption password, you will not be able to access the backup.

HT4145 I'm trying to hook up a desk top and it's asking me for network security code i have a apple router

I called the help desk from the phone company they sent me to my router owner which is an apple its asking me for network security code where do ii find this

If you still have the box and instruction manual for your Apple router then pull it out. Find the part of the manual that tells you how to do a factory reset of the router and follow the instructions to do so. Once it restarts, then start at the beginning of the manual and follow the instructions carefully. They will tell you how to install AirPort utility on your computer, and then how to connect to and configure the settings on the router.
When setting up your router's wireless settings, make sure to choose a network name with no spaces (e.g. "MyRouter"), choose "WPA2 Personal" security, and then type in a strong passphrase (twice). Make your passphrase at least 10 characters and reasonably complex (e.g. "MyR0uter!sVery5ecure").
Once you have made the settings, and saved them (per the manual), then you should see your new network name show up as an available network from your computer. Select the network, type in the wireless passphrase, and it should connect.

HT1918 My account is asking me for my security code on my credit card, but it will not accept the code as valid? Not sure what to do?

I am trying to purchase an app on a new iPad we have purchased. I'm asked to put in my security code on my credit card for security reasons, but it will not accept my code as valid. Not sure how to proceed.

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.
