HT1918 unable to connect click and buy in iTunes, app store does work

I try to buy software on my iPhone, this is normal connected to a Click and Buy account.
The strange thing is that I can use the Click and Buy account in the OS X App store and not in the iTunes store.
Is it possible that there is an old Click and Buy account still somewhere in the system that does block the option to connect the new one?

Has it been 24 hours?
I take it this was a gift card.  iTunes Store:  Invalid, Inactive, or Illegible codes http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1292 - gift cards
I don't know if this provides an alternative means: https://expresslane.apple.com ; select 'iTunes' in the first column; 'iTunes Store' in the second column
If you are really desperate you could buy the app yourself, then request reimbursement.

  • Hi I have an iTunes account with my uk debit card but am currently in Australia, can I buy and use an iTunes/app store gift card in AU$ or am I only allowed to acces the store in gbp£ ?

    I had the same error when trying to update my apps on my ipod touch. I tried to input my security code numerous times to no avail. I also made sure my billing address was the same as what my bank had on file. To fix the issue I went into iTunes, logged onto the iTunes store, went to account settings and reviewed my recent purchases. Turned out that I had made a recent purchase and didn't have enough money left on my credit card to pay for it at the time. I paid off the credit card, and then input my security code once more and now it works fine. I've heard that some debit or pay as you go credit cards require a minimum balance, so make sure you have at least that amount in your account.

  • HT1689 I cannot click my ID on iTunes & App Stores.

    I cannot click my ID on iTunes & App Stores. And I have to change the country and region Im in. What to do please?

    What computer and operating system you using?  If it is a pc and you are using windows then why don't you search for music files with the search term *.mp3 or whatever file extension the music files might have ie *.[file extension name] and see if they are still on your harddrive somewhere

  • I just upgraded to 6.0 and links that want to open in a new window do not work. Right click and selecting open in new window does work.

    Similarly clicking a link in email does not open a window. I can drag the link to Firefox and a new tab opens.
    Also clicking Tools -> Add-ons does not open a tab as it used to.

    mha007, Thank you. I walked through your suggested solutions and finally disabled all add-ons and restarted them one by one. The culprit seems to be ViewSourceWith 0.8.11. Interestingly when it is enabled I had to go to TaskManager to force Firefox to quit.
    Maybe this information will help others. I don't know if the cache clearing etc helped but I would suggest that others start but Bringing up Firefox in Safe Mode (hold shift when you select the icon), disable all add-ons and then start them one by one.
    Of course if you have ViewSourceWith maybe you should just disable it first rather than go through the tedium of restarting each add-on separately. To get to the add-ons when it won't open from the toolbar type about:addons in the address area.

  • HT204053 how can i delete a defunct Apple ID from iCloud.  It controls my access to iCloud and I can't change it.  I do have a current Apple ID and Password in iTunes, App Store and everywhere else.

    I have a Mac desk top and and iPad, a current Apple ID and Password and gmail address.  Mac says can't access icloud be cause of a problem with my gmail address.  I click to fix it and it asks for a password for my OLD yahoo account, whick I don't have.  BTW, this is all set up on my iPad but the account is not verified.....round and round she goes!  What can I do next?

    If the old ID (Yahoo address) was an earlier version of your current ID (Gmail address), try recreating your old ID from your new ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, 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.  Then enter the password for your current ID when your Mac prompts you for your Yahoo ID.

  • Selecting buy in iTunes Music store does not bring up Apple ID login

    When I choose the Buy button to purchase a song in the Music store, nothing happens.

    Hi LindaMW,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    I would suggest signing out of your iTunes Store account from within the iTunes software.
    Then sign back in.
    The instructions on how to do that are in the article below:

    iPad Charging
    "The fastest way to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter."
    If you believe there is an issue with the Supplied Charger, take it and your Device, to An Apple Store or AASP and get them to check...
    Meanwhile, have you tried a Reset of your iPad... you will not lose any Data...
    Reset
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

  • ITunes Store + Click and Buy timed out

    I recently got me a Click and Buy account because Paypal isnt availible in Germany. I verified my Mail and my bank account - Click and Buy says. Whenever I try to link this in iTunes I get a Message that iTunes could not connect with CaB and the process was canceld because of a session time out. I think the whole process took me about 20 seconds. I tried a Firefox instead of Safari - nothing.

    I still have the same problem, I can not link my click-and-buy account with my iTunes Store account - and that means that the money I have in CaB is stuck there and I cannot use it in Apple Store. That *****!
    On every attempt to get back from the browser to iTunes, I still receive the iTunes box message:
    Your attempt to set up your ClickandBuy account for use in the iTunes Store was unsuccessful.
    Your iTunes Store session has timed out.
    It seems that Apple does not give a dam about it ("it" means us that are spending money in their store via their business partners).
    Does anyone know any sort of solution for that technical problem? Why iTunes does not accept the browser redirect from CaB?

  • Hi.  I just upgraded to the IPhone 5.  I am connected to wifi but I am still unable to access ITunes, App Store and Safari.  I have tried helpful tips but nothing is working.  Any suggestions?  I have also done the sync to Wifi.  Thanks

    Hi.  I have just upgraded to the IPhone5.  I have synced to WIFI and I am still unable to connect to ITunes, App Store or Safari.  Any suggestions? 
    Thanks for your help.  NR1420

    What happens when you try?  Do you get an error message.
    disconnect from the wifi and try on cellular data, if you can access the apps, then the problems lies with your router.

  • I have registered with and validated click and buy but it is not showing on my itunes account

    I have registered with and validated click and buy but it is not showing on my itunes account???

    In iTunes these should theoretically be available on the iTunes Store home page.
    On the right of that page under Quick Links find Purchased section (if available for your country) and then choose the TV Show category and choose to download there - it doesn't happen automatically.
    If not in US you won't be able to redownload movies (yet anyway).
    If a title is not available there are reasons for this but you'd expect it to be if you've only just bought it.
    Actually I prefer buying in iTunes - I bought some TV episodes on AppleTV but cannot complete my season in iTunes - maybe i can't for that show (support were useless) but I do wonder if it's because the purchase was made on ATV.

  • I can't buy apps. I have a account and click and buy account. But when I go to my account in ITunes and want to change my credit to click and buy I have to download ITunes. I did that but still I have the problem to buy apps. I can get free apps.

    Who can help me? I want buy apps but that's not possible. I have an account by iTunes and Click and Buy.
    But when a want to buy one app then they ask me to make an account for credits. I have the account by Click and Buy.
    When I go my account in ITunes and want to change my credit in CLick and Buy I have to download ITunes again.
    I did that but nothing is changes! Stil the problem to buy. I can 'buy' free apps.
    What to do?

    Nothing you can do. Apps are locked to the account that purchased them and you have to log into the account to update them.
