HT2534 even though downloading apps is free y does it ask for payment details

Hey why do i need to enter the payment details although the app is free?? Even though the option none is available do i still need to enter my address?? I just tried downloading an app.. Please help..

It's just confirming your payment details, it's not charging you anything.
So go ahead and re-enter them, as long as it's Apple asking you for them.

  • Cannot update free apps on my iphone and ipad - Asking for payment details

    I am not able to update my free apps on iphone and ipad, apps like instagram, the weather channel and Farmville2 arent updating. I've been asked credit card info and charged 1$. Why? Can someone please help me out. I have tried logging off and logging in again however, its of no use. Apple hasnt even posted a message in regards to this.

    Also I have funds in my account, so that shouldn't be a problem. I was trying to download a free app. It was working this morning. Frustrated doesn't cover it.

  • HT4623 I cannot download games keeps asking for payment details

    I can't download free games it keep asking for payment details or update games

    Hello Trisha cottle,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information, take a look at:
    Why can’t I select None when I edit my payment information?

    When you create a new store account or sign in with an existing Apple ID (that you haven't used in the store), you must provide a payment method.
    Have a nice day,

  • HT4990 When I try to download an app it is asking for the billing address even though the app is free and then it does not accept post code

    When I down load an app it is asking for a billing address even though the app is free after I enter the required details it does accept the post code

    Try to set it up as new device, explained here:
    How to back up your data and set up as a new device
    Start without using the backup after the restore process, to rule out a software problem.
    If the phone is working after that, use the backup to restore from. In case the problem comes back, your backup contained corrupt data and you'll have to start again without the backup.

  • Verify my payment even though the app is free ?

    Why does apple keep asking to verify my payment even though the app is free and every time I'm verifying my payment info it keep saying declined even though all the information I have given them is correct?!? Please help me!!!

    Hit the issue too and the following fixed it for me.
    Settings->iTunes & App Store->apple ID->view apple ID->payment->re-enter all the credit card information especially the credit card number.
    My guess is that after upgrading the stored credit card number gets messed up although it *looks* like it's still stored ok (e.g. still displaying the correct last 4 digits when the error happened and only asking for security code).
    Hope this help!

  • How do I delete and Apple ID ? I had a friend transfer all my stuff from his computer and I go to update or download apps his ID pops up and asks for his password instead of mine! Ugh so frustrated right now

    How do I delete and Apple ID ? I had a friend transfer all my stuff from one phone to another using his computer.  I can't  update or download apps, his ID pops up and asks for his password instead of mine! Ugh so frustrated right now!

    You can't delete an Apple ID. Furthermore, everything you transferred is tied permanently to your friend's Apple ID. You do not legally own that software. If you want that software for yourself, then you need to purchase it using your Apple ID.

  • My iPad has stopped asking for my apple I'd password when downloading apps.  I want it to ask for password because my kids keep downloading apps without asking.  How do I rectify this?

    My apple I'd has stopped asking for my password when downloading apps to my iPad.  I want it to ask every time.  I edited it unknowingly and I need to change it back.  Please help! Thx

    Assuming that you've got the relevant iOS version on the iPad, then you can change it from a 15 minute period during which it doesn't need to be re-entered to immediately via Settings > General > Restrictions > Require Password

  • Why can i not download apps it keeps asking for payment details when apple already have them

    somebody please help its driving me nuts, ive downloaded other apps before, its just suddenly stopped working for some strange reason, ive tried changing my bank details but that didnt work either, somebody help before i end up smashing my beloved phone

    Itunes support recently updated their account security so that your billing address in your account must match the billing address of the credit card you are using, as well as how it appears in the USPS database (
    http://zip4.usps.com/). Try making sure your address matches exactly and it should allow you to use your account.

  • I cant download apps because my apple account is asking for credit card information, how do i resolve this problem?

    i have an apple id. when i go onto app store and type it in it says that i have not used account in store and to rectify the problem. when i go in to do this it is asking me for credit card details, i dont have a credit card. what do i do? i want to download free apps. my phone is bill

    In the US you can purchase 'iTunes' or 'App Store' cards for cash at many retail stores, and apply the code from the purchased (validated) card to add credit (money) to your Apple ID account for online music and App purchases. It is my understanding that such credits can be used for US purchases of any online content, including music, apps, and movie rentals. Are such cards sold in your area?

  • HT1414 I am a tech-tard and am afraid to restore my device.  I do not think my backup is properly stored in my computer.  My device is not talking to my account- battery dies even though it shows battery life...and asks for my phone # before I text or cal

    I have been told by the apple store that I have a software problem but have not been given any assistance on how to resolve the issue.  Even with a full charge the device will power off, most of the time stating that the battery is dead.  However, when I plug it in the device will show adiquate battery to operate.  It will even ask what my phone number is before I can send a text or get any voicemail.
    I tried looking on the help pages but nothing has seemed to make a difference.  All of my children hve moved out so I don't have anyone else to get assistance from.  I am afraid to do a restore because I can't find where my data is stored in my computer.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!
    Thanks, Shelby

    Yes, assuming they are currently on the computer.
    If the iPhone has been used as designed, contacts are either in a supported application on the computer or are synced to a cloud service.
    Pictures would be copied to the comptuer regularly and then those desired to be on the device would be synced back.

  • I want to change my password but can not get passed verification even though the answers are correct, so I have asked for an email and none has come.Can some one help?

    I have tried to change my password and get to the part where you need to verify by answering the questions, and I get can not get any further, as it tells me the answers aren't the ones they have but I know it is correct, so I have asked for an email to be sent, but no email comes.I receive other emails from iTunes but not the one helping me to change the password. Has any one got any idea why?

    Contact iTunes customer support, no one in these user to user support forums can assist  you.

  • I dont know what wrong with my Apple ID , when i tried to updated my apps and the always asking for payment?

    i try to updated my apps and download free apps but my Apple id keep asking for payment, the exacly massage is " before you can make purchases you must tap OK , then verify your payment. before i used to have NONE but after i buy some Apps i put my debite card number. after that i want to change to be none again but None is not show... now i cannot update anything or even download free apps

    I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
    The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account.  I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there.  On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back.  Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email.  The device is currently useless.
    The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
    Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?
