I have no idea what to try next. Please help!
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

It keeps saying my security code is wrong but its not
If the security code or anything else is rejected the rejection comes from your card issuer. Apple is just passing the message along. So you need to contact the issuer.

The Itunes store constantly asks me to Improve Apple ID Security by adding three secret questions but won't accept my valid password. I have tried to reset the password, update the billing info and it still won't let me make any purchases.
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? -
HT201303 my itunes keeps saying my security code is wrong on my visa and its not
my itunes acount keeps saying my security code is wrong on my visa but its not
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 authorizations have the correct information on file.
And/or try contacting iTunes support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Express Lane, then iTunes > iTunes Store -

I can't update my iPad to iOS7 . It keeps saying My updates are complete at iOS5 .1 . HELP!! I want to download iBooks and other apps that need the newer iOS7 .
The original iPad can't be updated past 5.1.1; you may be able to get compatible application versions by downloading them to a computer and then going to the Purchased screen on the device.

I cannot update or buy apps because it keeps saying my itunes password is invalid.
I am able to log in on the computer with my apple id but when i try to buy apps or try to update my apps on my phone and it asks me for my password it keeps telling me my password is invalid.
Just make sure that the correct apple ID is on the phone for the iTunes store. I had the same problem. My Apple ID is through a hotmail account. But for what ever reason with an upgrade it switched me to the mobile me account on my iPhone.

Hey ssands0611,
When you uninstalled and reinstalled, did you use this article?

Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order and then restart your computer:

I must have misspelt one of my security question answers. When I try to reset them, the email get sent to my old email account (school email) which I can no longer access. So I was just wondering if it is possible to delete that email addess off the system so the emails only get sent to my current email (which is also my apple ID).

I keep trying to change my Apple ID password but I can't get past the security questions. Is there another way to get thru because I don't remember my exact answer from 8 years ago.
You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, or clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed in either article, filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.
