Ipad issues downloading free apps from apps store

i have bought recently a new ipad where i was trying to use my existing itunes account for doanloading few free apps. everytime i click on free and say install it start asking me to verify the details and enter secret code of my credit card in order to continue the purchase. it really annoys that why would it ask me to purchase an application which is for free.
Please help if anyone knows the fix for the above mentioned issue.

You could remove your credit card details and select none as payment type.

    how can i download free apps.store without asking the billing information in my iPod Touch

    - Add a valid payment method to your existing account.
    or
    - Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before. Make sure you specify a birthdate that results in being at least 13 years old

  • Issues downloading free app updates after moving country

    Hi,
    I've recently moved from Australia to Germany and (stupidly?) updated my iTunes account to reflect that fact. I now keep being told in iTunes that several of my apps have free updates available but when I try to download them, iTunes store tells me that there are no updates for my account.
    What should I do? I want to keep my apps up-to-date.
    Regards,
    Matina

    I have just done the same thing, moving from Australia to Sweden. I changed my billing info, and can no longer automatically update apps that I downloaded before moving.
    There is a loophole, but Apple may of course close it at any time. The work-around, which is to update the apps from your iPhone, iPod touch or iPad, is explained in this e-mail exchange with Apple's support rep "Brittany":
    http://www.breneman.net/apple_itunes.html
    So far I have not received a reply to my last e-mail, it has been a few days now.

  • Download free tracks from US Store outside the US?

    I have iTunes Store accounts in several different countries in order to access more album art for my music.
    Using the US Store account I have noticed that there are some free music available for download. However, when attempting to download these, it says in the license agreement that I am only allowed to purchase from the iTunes US Store from within the US. Since I live in Sweden, I therefore haven't proceeded with downloading any of these free tracks.
    Is this license agreement a standard agreement that doesn't apply for the free tracks? Can I proceed with downloading the tracks anyway?
    I have checked in the Swedish store, but I can't seem to find any free music for download.

    From the itunes store terms of service:
    +"Purchases or rentals (as applicable) from the iTunes Store are available to you only in the United States, its territories, and possessions, and are not available in any other location. You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Store from outside of the available territory. Apple may use technologies to verify such compliance"+
    and
    +to purchase from an iTunes Store in a particular country, you must have both a residential address and a billing address in that particular country. Items on any particular country's iTunes Store are available only for distribution to customers who use a credit card, debit card, iTunes Gift Certificate, or iTunes Gift Card issued in and for that country.+

    On your iPad tap on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account  - that should give you a payments link on your account's page. Or on your computer's iTunes you should be able to edit your payment info by going into the Store > View Account menu option and logging into your account, and on your account's details page there should also be a payment link.
    Changing payment info : Change or remove your payment information from your iTunes Store account (Apple ID)
    If you don't get the 'none' option on the payment details screen : Why can’t I select None when I edit my Apple ID payment information?

    iOS is the operating system for iOS devices like the iPhone and iPad. Your Mac runs on OS X. You have installed OS X 10.10.2 Yosemite.
    I have the most recent version of the Kindle app for Mac from the Mac App Store (MAS) v. 1.10.6 and it works fine. Look again in the MAS for the Kindle app, does it say Get or Open on the button?
    Are you confusing Kindle for Mac with Kindle for iOS. The iOS version won't run on your Mac.

    You could try this.
    Back up all data.Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Reboot and test. If there's no change, restore the item you deleted from a backup, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Otherwise, you may need to recreate some of your settings in the Network preference pane.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • I am not able to download free apps.  A message comes up telling me that I havent purchased anything from the app store.  What do I do?

    i am not able to download free apps.  A message comes up telling me that I havent purchased anything from the app store.  What do I do?

    When you set up your Apple ID, did you enter a credit card?  That's usually all you need to do.  Even for free apps.  Also, the credit card need to be issued in the country of the App Store you use.  Now, there is a way to set up an Apple ID without a credit card, but it's (IMHO) a good idea to have one on the account incase you ever do want to purchase a paid for app, or want to make an in-app purchase.  I've had a CC tied to my Apple ID for several years now.  Not once have I had a charge that wasn't mine or any billing issues whatsoever.

  • Can I download free apps from the iTunes store, without submitting a credit card number?

    I've tried to download free Apps from the iTunes store several times. It tells me to login, so I do. Then it says "This Apple ID has not yet been used with the iTunes Store. Please review your account information." When I click Review, then I click continue, I Agree to the terms and conditions, then it wants me to enter my credit card number! BUT ITS FREE!!!!!

    Hi..
    Try here >  Create an iTunes App Store account without a credit card
    Apple verifies your account information with every transaction whether paid or free media.
    Select None ...
    FYI... the None option is not available in all countries.
