[iPhone 4 - iOS 7.0.3] Two-Step Verification: iTunes Purchase Problem (Identity Verification)

I have set up two-step verification successfully, and due to not having made purchases on my phone since the iOS 7 update, it asked to verify my identity when I tried to purchase an app, as it usually does for the first time.
I've heard that T-S V users go to a 'Verify Screen' or something of the sort at this point, choose way of getting the code, get it, and type it in.
When I click on the warning to verify my account, it takes me to the Manage my Apple ID page on Safari, and logging in/entering cod there does nothing to purchase the app.
I've tried signing in and out to no avail, as well as different Wi-Fi signals.
I can download paid apps on the computer, but it is clumsy and takes excess time.
Any help?

Generally, when going out of the country and using a foreign SIM, carrier files can be changed. Go to Settings>General>About>and look at Carrier? What does it say? You may have to perform a restore. You can try a restore from a backup, that would reinstall the iOS, and would provide the latest AT&T carrier file as well. See if this will fix the problem.

  • IPhone 4 won't back up (among other iTunes sync problems)

    I've posted this issue in the iPhone forum (https://discussions.apple.com/message/18962855?ac_cid=op123456#18962855) but I'm having a series of overlapping problems related to my iPhone 4 and iTunes so I'll post here as well.  Here's the long diatribe         
    1) 90% of the time that I try to open up the  "Music/iPod app" on my iPhone, it crashes before it loads anything viewable or listenable.   5% percent of the time it simply loads an empty interface with no music.  I know that there is music on there becuase the reamining 5% of the time it does work, and even when it doesn't work I can hit play on my headphone remote and listen to tracks.  These symptoms are present regardless of whether I have iTunes Match turned on or off on the phone itself (yes, I'm a paid user)
         1A) During the 5% time that the Music/iPod app does work, iTunes Match, or iTunes in the Cloud, or whatever the **** ya wanna call it, doesn't work in any stable shape or predictable way.   Although I can "see" my tracks, any attempt to download them to my phone (even with WiFi connection) usually causes the phone to get confused about what it's downloaded vs what it hasn't.  For example, if i choose an album and click download all, then it'll start playing the songs as they come in (sometimes with hiccups, presumably from unfinished downloads).    Fine, no problem.  However, even if all song completely download as intended, I will eventually get an alert on the iphone saying "can't download track from the cloud" or "error downloading track from cloud"  (I don't have this alert committed to memory so I'm paraphrasing).   When this happens and I go to the Music Store to view the download que (which is somewhat odd since I'm not buying the tracks, but I digress) ALL of the tracks that I have selected to download  show a status of "waiting" even though ALL of them have actually already downloaded and I've listened to them.  The only way to alleviate the neverendign cycle is to do a restart on the phone.
    2) I wanted to back up my phone and do a complete restor to factory setting but I can't sync through iTunes.  When I connect the phone with the USB connector, iTunes sits in a perputual state of "Syncing iPhone (Step 1 of 5)" while the never ending sync clock spins at the top of my iPhone.
         2A) If I disconnect the phone manually (pull the cord), the syncing arrows still spin. The only way to stop it is to do a restart on the phone.
         2B) I've tried deleting previous backup files and manually backing up with no success.  Someone on the iPhone forum suggested manually deleting from ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup but that path doesn't even exist on my system.  Sounds like that could easily be the culprit but even a new install of iTunes isn'ts solving the problem and it raises other questions of where my backups are currently residing.
    3) When the phone is connected to my laptop with the USB dock conector, iTunes says that my 32gb iPhone 4 is over capacity by 3.1gb.    However, when looking on the iPhone itself, it says that I've used 17.4GB and have 11.2 available. 
    Notes which may or may not be of significance:
    A) I had a corrupted iTunes library on my external hard-drive a few months ago.    I don't know if this was the cause or the result of the above problems but that issue has since been taken care of. Sadly, my phone problems still persist.
    B) I've just learne of the application iExplorer and was thinking of using that to address any bad iTunes library that might exist on my phone. However, because I can't back up my phone yet (see 2 and 2A above), I'm reluctant to use any third party solution just yet.   I would love to know anyone's feedback on this product however.

    I just updated my iTunes to 9.2.1 and my iPhone 4 backed up just fine. Did you make sure you did a restart of you computer after update. Check in your iTunes prefs and see if you have your auto sync disabled under devices. Let me know what happens

  • IPhone 4 OS4.3.1 'No Content' After iTunes Purchase through phone

    I was using the iTunes app on the phone and purchased a song, after the song downloaded completely it disappear. I press the iPod app icon and the message displayed was 'No Content'. have tried reseting, and nothing. once I connected it to iTunes on the PC everything was restored accordingly, BUT how to fix when you are on the go and don't have your PC????

    To rule out a software issue, set it up as new device, without using the latest backup, described here:
    If you can't update or restore your iOS device
    If this does not work, your device needs to be serviced or checked by an Authorized Apple Service Provider.
    Has the software on the phone been modified at some point in the past? This could also be a reason for that.

  • Two computers, one iTunes account problems

    We have 2 computers my MBP and Families computer (not mac), When someone buys a song on the family computer it shows up on my iTunes on my mac. I dont want it to do this. Is there a way to make it stop doing this, how? Both computers share the same iTunes account/ Apple ID. The songs bought on the other computer show up in my download tab on the left in my iTunes.

    iTunes prefs Store.

  • Purchasing problems and verification

    I've not been on iTunes since Christmas. I've tried to buy one song, but when I sign in, it asks for me to verify. Just want to make sure it's not an issue or something.

    Is this in any way connected to Adobe Reader?
    Either way, provide more information.

  • Does iMessage imperil two-step authentication?

    It seems that the new iMessage service is a complete lack of security for anyone relying on their iPhone as part of a two-step authentication process.
    I was just re-logging into some secure sites, such as Google, that require two-step authentication, and the authentication number pops up on the screen of the iMac or iPad I'm using, apparently destroying any value in having the information supplied separately to my iPhone.
    I have had to turn off the whole iMessage service now so that my access to secure sites is not so easily breached. Apparently anyone with access to my computer or iPad easily bypasses the security process.
    I don't understand how this update doesn't leave everyone who relies on two-step authentication with an iPhone using SMS messages with validation codes from being completely compromised.

    You'd need to address this with Apple as these forums are user to user only; you could call or send them feedback:

  • ITunes purchases on iPhone will not sync to PC

    Recent iTunes Store music purchases made on iPhone are not syncing to iTunes on PC.
    The Album Warpaint - Warpaint was pre-ordered and only the 'advanced release' song "Love is to Die" has synced to iTunes. The rest of the album has now been purchased and dowloaded onto phone, but will not sync to iTunes.
    I have iTunes 11.1.4.62 & iOS 7.0.4.

    Add'l info: iTunes purchase history shows the purchase & all songs on the playlist.

  • IPhone 4S won't do wifi sync with iTunes

    I can't get 4s iPhone iOS 6 to do wifi sync with iTunes on my Mac Pro.  Running Lion on Mac Pro and latest itune version.  Current with all app and software updates.

    No, the front screen has never been replaced before but I'm starting to think that the display connector might still have moved a little, I'll try and open it today.
    Thanks.

    The only pics that can be imported to your computer are pics in your camera roll, & you don't use iTunes for that. Read here:

  • HT202656 verification code not sent to my iPhone (Sprint) for two-step verification for apple id

    I have tried to set up two-step verification several times using iCloud, first my iMac and then, when that didn't work, on my iPhone, all to no avail. I followed the instructions up to and including the step where the message says I will receive an SMS on my iPhone with a verification code. I never received the message with the verification code.
    I am using Sprint as my internet provider and working with an iMac with Mavericks 10.9.5 as the operating system and iPhone 6 with IOS 8.2

    Hey dagored,
    Thanks for the question. I would recommend completing the two-step verification process and then changing the SMS number associated once you upgrade:
    Apple ID: About two-step verification and SMS
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5593
    Or you can opt to complete the process and then turn two-step verification off completely:

    Thanks,

  • I want to disable two step verification on my iphone

    I am unable to use Chrome or Mail on my iphone because when I enter the code given for two step verification, it is not accepted.  My phone is set to the correct time.  I cannot get into settings without the verification code.

    For what it's worth:
    WARNING:  If you use iTunes to sync photos between your iPhone or iPad and your Mac do not activate the iCloud Drive. Doing so will kill the capability of using iTunes to sync with your mobile device and disable Documents & Data syncing for your iCloud account on OS X Mavericks and earlier Macs, as well as iOS 7 and earlier devices.

  • HT5593 Cannot get two step verification to work

    I cannot get the two step verification SMS message received on my iPhone. I tested my iPhone by sending text messages to it from other sources and it works but the SMS message from Apple needed to verify two step verification does not go through. I have iOS 8.1 on an iPhone 5s.

    Also, I read this on one of the Apple Support Documents: 
    How do I use Find My iPhone notifications to receive verification codes?
    Find My iPhone notifications can be used to receive verification codes on any iOS device with Find My iPhone turned on.
    How indeed do you do this? It isn't clear at all. It just says that you can use your "Find My iPhone" notifications to receive the verification codes. But how?

  • Ios8 upgrade with two step verification

    I have and iPhone 5 and two step verification in place.  When I first upgraded to iOS 8 the upgrade process asked for my verification number.  I first chose iPhone, but I did not get a code.  I then went back and selected SMS to the phone number that I was upgrading.  Then the upgrade went though without me entering anything.  I'm assuming that iOS 8 just read my SMS message and went through with the upgrade.  I'm about to do the same with my daughter's (she has her own Apple ID and two step verification) iPhone 4s and I assume that it will work the same way?
    I could not find any detailed information on Apple's web site pertaining to this.

    Hi Les,
    If you've been asked to wait, I would try going back through the process to start two-step verification as described here:
    Apple ID: Frequently asked questions about two-step verification for Apple ID
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570
    Set up two-step verification at My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com):
    Select "Manage your Apple ID" and sign in.
    Select "Password and Security."
    Under Two-Step Verification, select Get Started and follow the onscreen instructions.
    That article also explains why you had to wait, in case you were at all curious:
    Why was I asked to wait before setting up two-step verification?
    As a basic security measure, Apple does not allow two-step verification setup to proceed if any significant changes have recently been made to your account information. Significant changes can include a password reset or new security questions. This waiting period helps Apple ensure that you are the only person accessing or modifying your account. While you are in this waiting period, you can continue using your account as usual with all Apple services and stores.
    Apple will send an email to all the addresses you have on file notifying you of the waiting period and encouraging you to contact Apple Support if you think that someone else has unauthorized access to your account. You will be able to return to set up two-step verification after the date listed on your Apple ID account page and in the email that you receive.
    Note: When your waiting period is over, you will have 30 days to complete two-step verification setup. If you attempt to complete setup after 30 days have passed or if you have made significant changes to your account during that time, another waiting period may be triggered.
    Take care, Les!
