I keep being asked for a security code and my account to be verified

I keep being asked to verify my account and a security code even though I am trying to download updates

Launch iTunes. From the menu bar click Store / View My Account / Edit Payment Information.
Make sure your billing information, Security code and expiration date are correct then click Done.
Now try to download updates.
Apple verifies your billing information, even for updates.

  • HT201303 Keeps asking for my security code and I know it's last 3 on card

    Why it won't let me get free apps with my card keeps taking me to billing info and asking my security code

    HOW TO FIX "INVALID SECURITY CODE" PROBLEM:
    Since apple's "customer support" consists of a whole bunch of ******** derelicts who blame you or your credit card company for this message, I had to take it upon myself to figure out a way around the problem.  All you have to do is change your billing information in iTunes from your credit card to PayPal.
    I was getting this same ridiculous "invalid security code" message when I knew I had entered it correctly!
    It's funny, because PayPal recognized it as a valid account and security code, and now all my apps finally work again.
    Open iTunes
    Go to the Store
    On the right, click on "Account"
    Next to "Payment Type", click "Edit"
    Click the PayPal logo and either enter your existing PayPal account info or create a new one (as I did)
    I'm not a fan of PayPal, therefore I never had one.  I created one really quickly and even used the same account that mysteriously stopped working.  (AND WITH NO PROBLEMS... THANKS, APPLE)
    I really hope this helps anyone with this same problem as it is really frustrating when somebody **cough cough apple** tells you that you're doing something wrong when you know you're not, and takes no liability whatsoever when the error is on their behalf.
    Happy Apping.... For now

    The credit card security code is a unique three or four digit number printed on the front (American Express) or back (Visa/MasterCard) of your card.

  • I have never had to enter a password to access mail. However, recently, I keep being asked for password on my ****** address. Only on my macbook. (which, btw, has a version number the drop down doesn't offer as a choice. I had to putt 9.4)

    However, recently, I keep being asked for password on my ***** address.
    Only on my macbook. (which, btw, has a version number your drop down doesn't offer as a choice. I had to putt 9.4)
    When I look up the account the "password" is a long string of gobbledygook. Something I would never do.
    But when I attempt to use that pw I still can't get in.
    I have no trouble accessing that email account on my mac mini. Just on the macbook.

    Maiko,
    I'm confess I'm still trying to get a handle on your problem. You do a fantastic job of describing it ... but I'm just trying to picture it accurately in my head.
    I think, were I in your shoes, I'd begin by looking at what the debug page has to say for the specific destination in which you're interested in fixing. In other words, I'm not clear on where, exactly, this destination points ...
    Destination illinois.edu.1945806043
    Is that your site, or the division within your site that you want to fix? "Normally", you do not need to specify a site handle to get to your site within your transfer CGI ... if you say "uillinois.edu", it's enough to transfer your users to iTunes U ... but every site still has a handle, and you could, if you wanted to, actually specify it in your transfer CGI. For example, this:
    Destination uic.edu.1139051993
    is for my entire site ... it's my site handle. Whereas this:
    Destination uic.edu.1991288441
    is for a division within my site ... but it's impossible to tell the difference between "site" and "division" from just the handle (I mean, if I didn't say "this is a site" and "this is a division", there'd be no way for you to know). So when I look at your creds and permissions on your debug page, I can't quite tell if they give you download access for your site, or for the specific division you want to fix. If you could open the debug page with your division as destination (or confirm that that's what we're looking at), it'd rule out some things.

    I cannot purchase anything at the itunes store because I am being ask for my security questions, but I don't remember the answers. I tried going to appleied.apple.com but I won't allow me to change my security answerswithout answering the original questions. How do you change you security questions with out knowing them? I need help.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Start here, and reset your security questions, you will receive an email to your rescue address, use the link in the email and reset your security questions.
    If that doesn't help or you don't have a rescue address, you might try contacting Apple through iTunes Store Support

  • Having lost my password, et al., I obtained a new one successfully, but now when I tried to make a purchase, I was asked for my Security Code. How do I obtain a new one since I have lost all my iPad documentation?

    That refers to the 3 digit security code on the back of your credt card, not a security code for the iPad.

  • I keep being asked for my pop.mail password for my user address. Can you help please.

    I keep being asked for my pop.mail password and I do not know what is meant. Can you help. I cannot receive or send messages on thunderbird. You say you have sent a reset message to me but it has not come through. I am searching messages on my ipad. I am on the verge of abandoning Thunderbird and continuing to use my ipad and yahoo account. Thank you for your help in advance.

    Thunderbird has nothing to do with administering your email password and is not going to send you anything. I am not even sure where you requested that something be sent to you unless it is for the password to this forum which has nothing to do with your email.
    Your email provider would have a link to reset your password on their email help page.
    I would go to your providers web mail page and see if your username and password work thee. if they do then you might have incorrect server settings causing the password error.

    I was ask for my secure question and they did not work. So I went into my account and tap on my secure question that I forgot my secure question. It replied back that it just sent me a email. The email never came. I did this three time. You have myy email as correct. I have check my account and it show as being correct.

    It's a really bad idea to post your email addresess - it's an invitation to spam - and I've asked the Hosts to remove them.
    This is a user-to-user forum and no-one on here can take any direct action. If your Yahoo address is not working that's something you would need to take up with Yahoo - have you checked it by sending yourself an email to it?
    Otherwise you will need to contact Support: go to https://expresslane.apple.com/ and click on 'iTunes' in the center column and then 'iTunes Store' in the right-hand column and proceed from there.

  • Access document in Library is being asking for an Infopath username and password

    Trying to get access to files in the library. And the user is having permissions but when he clicked the file in the library he is being ask for an Infopath username and password.
    A pop dialog box showing like  
        "Form will open in Offline Mode"
                                      You are currently working offline.
    To try to connect to data sources when the form is opened, click "Try to Connect". To use previously stored data......
    Can somebody reply on this please.. 

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that access document in Library is being asking for an Infopath username and password.
    Usually this error when the form is not connected to any of the data sources successfully. Please verify all the data connections are available or not.
    I recommend to enable the options for Infopath Form Services to ensure that InfoPath 2010 is in online mode.
    In addition, you can add your SharePoint server’s FQDN to your Trusted Sites or Intranet Sites zone and modify your registry settings for the WebClient service.
    For more information, you can refer to:
