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.

Sometimes it says security code by it is the ZIP code. Sign into your account in the iTunes app on your computer and verify that all of the information is correct and agree to any new user agreements that may be needed.

HT1918 When I changed my credit card iTunes says that my security code is invalid. I even entered another card with its valid security code and got the same message. The security code I entered was correct but I can't get iTunes to accept it as valid.

When I changed my credit card info iTunes says my security code is invalid but the one I've entered is correct. I've even added a different card and I still get the message that the code is invalid. This means that I cannot download an app or song because I can't get past the payment page.

HT1918 Why is Apple saying my Security Code is invalid when it's not?

I want to get an app that's free, but Apple tells me to sign in for billing info. I put in my Security Code, correctly, but when I hit Done, it says the security code is invalid.

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.
And/or try contacting iTunes support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

HT1918 I want to change my payment info but it keeps saying my security code is invalid. What does that mean?

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.

The same thing has been happening to me, if you have a PayPal account you can bypass it. And my account is linked to my card anyway so it still comes from the same place

The option to change it to PayPalnis only availible on iTunes on the computer under account and billing info

This can sometimes happen because there is a missmatch between the billing address entered on your iTunes account and the billing address from your bank records. See http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646.

3 debit cards, updating, and my phone won't let me download apps or music because it says my security code is invalid no matter what I do. Help!!

I don't know wha to do. When I try to get apps (even free) or music on iTunes (even with my gift card), a notice pops up saying there was a problem with a previous billing purchase, then it takes me to my card info and address and no matter what it always tells me my security code is invalid. I've gone through 3 cards (all worked to purchase items from a store or anything) and I've even updated my phone when i was told that I had to do that before I could download anything. I can't figure out what the problem is. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP!!

From iTunes menu Bar, Store > View Account > Edit "Payment Type" under "Apple ID summary"

So whenever I try and download an app, apple is making me put in my security code for my visa card. But, it's saying my security code is invalid. And I know that it's right. What do I do?

Apple is making me put in my card information to get free apps. And when I put in the vista card information it's saying that the security code is invalid. It is also doing this to my brothers account. I have no idea what to do!

Go to Settings > Store tap on your Apple ID, then billing information.
Make sure every single bit of information in your credit card is 100% correct and matches the credit card information you have in iTunes (if you have an iTunes account and you have entered the credit card information there). Make sure your credit card expiration date is accurate and correct. Make sure that if in iTUnes you said you live at say 150 Red Road, you don't say you live at 150 Red Rd on your iPad.
Once you've verified the billing information is 100% accurate, save and then try again to download from the App Store.

When I try to download a song it tells me I need to sign in and when I put my billing information including my credit car and security code it tells me my security code is invalid.

So I recently was like signed out of my iTunes account on my iPhone. Now when I try to sign it and let's me and all but when I click to download something it tells me I need to sign in and provide my credit card number and the security code. When I do all that it says the security code is invalid and won't let me download anything. Can someone tell me what to do?

Hello
I am having the same issue, I now my card number as well as the security code is valid so i am not sure what the issue is...CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP US?!

ITunes recently decided my debit card's security code in invalid. But nothing is wrong with the code or my card. how do I fix this? Apple support doesn't have a clue what they are doing and will not call me to fix this.

My bank sent me a new Debit card because of some security issue. It has the same number as my previous card but new experation and new security code. It worked fine for months then all of a sudden Itunes decided the security code is invalid. Now I can't even update my phone.
For the last week I have been going back and forth over email with apple support to fix it, but they keep telling me the same fix that doesn't work and frankly they are the worst support group I have ever worked with. I can't even get anyone to answer a phone, its just back and forth by email everyday.

Debit card? Are you sure?
USA iTunes Store does not appear to accept debit cards - http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/us/terms.html "The iTunes Store, Mac App Store, App Store, and iBookstore services (“Services”) accept these forms of payment: credit cards issued by U.S. banks, payments through your PayPal account, iTunes Cards, iTunes Store Gift Certificates, Content Codes, and Allowance Account balances."

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.

When I try and download an app it is saying my billing security code is invalid, but it was working fine

When I go into download an app in the appstore it is saying my billing security code is invalid,It was working fine before.

Same thing happend here. Yesterday I called and chatted with a lady who told me right away that they are having issues with people validating their credit cards. She told me to contact support by email, which I did twice, they replied with the following:
1. Contact your bank or credit card company and ask to speak with the fraud/security department.
2. Tell the representative that your security code is being rejected. Ask them to review your account to see what might be preventing you from using the card to purchase from the iTunes Store. Ensure that they thoroughly review your account until they locate and resolve what is causing the issue.
3. The bank or credit card company will need to remove any holds on your account. The bank or credit card company could also bypass the authorization process.
I tested my card with another trusted service who asked to verify with the security code and it worked fine.
I guess at this point you could call your bank (just in case) or just wait.

you need to update your payment information to insert the correct security code.
