HT2534 What to do? Help please. Free app asking for billing details. And which one to use apple id or iCloud id?

When i want to install a free app using my apple id [email protected] - it asks me to enter billing details...why is that? :s
What to do?
And when i try to install it using my icloud id [email protected] , it does give me the option of 'none' in payment method but when i select it, it asks me to first fill in the details only then it would move to the next step.
And i wanted to ask....is it better to use my id the one with [email protected] or [email protected] ?
PLEASE HELP!!!!

For a standard account, a valid payment method is required even for free apps.
You can create a new account w/o a CC that is only good for apps by following these instructions

    iCloud backs up your iOS device (not your Mac) automatically. You can remove the backup:
    http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mm122d3ef202
    and it will not back up again. This will not affect a backup made using iTunes. The notice you see refers to calendars, contacts, iWork documents and so on, which live on the server and are read from there by your Mac, and so will obviously disappear if you turn iCloud off altogether (which you don't need to do) or turn off Documents (which you don't need to do either).

  • Why are free apps asking for my credit card?

    I'm trying to download Pandora or Jango music on my new iphone 4s but each time I click on free-install now, it asks for my credit card info.  What gives?

    Did you try to create an account without using the credit card?

  • HT201303 Trying to install free app asking for credit card. Why

    It's asking for a credit card for a free app

    For security --- to make sure it is you.
    If the app is free, then you will not be charged.  But of course some free apps provide the ability to make in-app purchases.

  • Whats the difference between Garageband, iMovie etc. that ship with Lion and the ones in the Apple Store?

    Given that the same version numbers are the same why should I pay another £10.50 for each app when Lion itself only cost £21 and contains iPhoto, IMovie and Garageband?

    Hi,
    When you bought your MacBook, it came with an operating system, Snow Leopard, pre-installed.
    It also came with some applications, including iPhoto, iMovie and Garageband, pre-installed.
    But the iLife applications aren't part of Snow Leopard, or of Lion.
    They're separate applications, and Apple gives them to you for free when you buy a new Mac.
    If you launch iPhoto, then go to the iPhoto menu and choose "About iPhoto", you can find out what version of iPhoto you're running. You can also check for software updates, and if they are available you will be able to download them.
    Your MacBook is very new, and I would be almost certain that the version of iPhoto you're running is the same as the version in the AppleStore.
    But if Apple upgraded iLife to a new version (possibly iLife 12) you would have to pay for that if you wanted it.
    And if Apple upgraded Lion to a new version (possibly Ocelot ) you would have to pay for that separately. It would not include the iLife applications.

  • I am trying to purchase a free app from the apple store. But, It says that i must update my payment information. How can I purchase the free app without doing the process and acredit card?

    I don't understand why it is asking for billing details for the purchase of a free app. do not have a credit card handy.

    If you didn't setp your iTunes account, from the beginning, without a credit card, you'll have to either add a credit card to your account or redeem an iTunes gift card, regardless of whether the app is free or not.

  • I am trying to deauthorized audible account but it is asking for a username and password but when i enter in itunes info it is nt working?? How do i find out what the username is then??

    All i want to do is access my itunes on my laptop  i was told i had to deauthorize the audible account and it is asking for a username and password, i tryed using my itunes login info but it didn't work, where can i find this info to get this gone.
    Or is there another way to sync my itunes account with my laptop????
    Please please help me!!!! I need my music

    I'm confused. Who told you that you need to deauthorize an Audible account to be able to play your music? Did you ever set up an account with Audible.com? What is happening when you try to play your music?  And what exactly do you mean by "sync your iTunes account with your laptop"?
    Please provide more details as to your situation and what it is you're trying to accomplish. I'm sure once we understand what it going on, someone can provide suggestions.
    Regards.

  • Passing values to subreport in SSRS throwing an error - Data Retrieval failed for the report, please check the log for more details.

    Hi,
    I have the subreport calling from the main report. The subreport is based on MDX query agianst the SSAS cube. some dimensions in cube has values 0 and 1.
    when I try to pass '0' to the sub report as the parameter value, it gives an error "Data Retrieval failed for the report, please check the log for more details".
    Actually I am using table for storing these parameter values. In the main report I am calling this table (dataset) and passing these values to subreport.
    so I have given like [0],[1] and this works fine. when I give only either [0] or [1] then it is throwing an error.
    Could you please advise on this.
    Appreciate all and any help.
    Thanks,
    Divya

    Hi Divya,
    Based on the current description, I understand that there is no issue if you pass two values from main report to subreport, while the issue occurs when passing one value to subreport.
    To narrow down the issue, I want to confirm whether the subreport can run if there is only [0] or [1] in the subreport. If so, it indicates the query statements exist error in the subreport. If it’s not the case, this shows the issue occurs during passing
    values from main report to subreport. To make further analysis, please post the details of query statements of the subreport to the forum.
    Regards,

  • Changed my yahoo account and ID now apps ask for old ID

    I recently Changed my yahoo account and ID now apps ask for old ID and password. How can I delete the old id? The cloud app is really irritating about this.

    The ID for apps will never change. They are locked to the Apple ID they were purchased/downloaded with. Apple ID and iTunes accounts cannot be merged, so you either delete the apps with the old ID and re-purchase/download them, or else you have to use the old Apple ID and password to update them.

    Click "Edit" in front of "payment information" and select "None"
