Itunes says my banck card carnt be used as a payment method why

i tunes saying my bank card carnt be used as a payment methord and ?? any help will be gratefull

If it's a debit card then I don't think that they are still accepted as a valid payment method - they are not listed on this page and there have been a number of posts recently about them being declined
If it's a credit card then is it registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, it was issued by a bank in your country and you are currently in that country ? If it is and it's being declined then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, otherwise you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they know why it's not being accepted : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management

It has NEVER been possible to purchase an unlocked iPhone 3G in the US. Your phone was hacked. Updating it has re-locked it to AT&T. AT&T will NOT unlock iPhones for any reason.
The phone is now useless to you. There is no legitimate way to fix this. Buy a new phone. Preferably in India.

(apologies for barging in, lllass.)
Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
(If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, does your device connect without that message now?

After updating iPod to iOS 5.0, cannot get into Game Center with previous nickname. It says my nickname is already in use by another account. Why did this happen and how can I fix this with my old nickname and its data?

HT203983 my apple id does not accept my payment method. why? i am using that same visa card the last 5 years!

my apple id does not accept my payment method. why? i am using that same visa card the last 5 years!

there may be several reasons why your credit card may be declined by the iTunes store ,
the reason the iTunes store require c.card when you setup your apple id is for verification purposes
if you have called the iTunes store in the past about unrecognised charges, or unauthorised activity ,
then your bank may have blocked your card from being used on the iTunes store, i would recommend contacting your banking institute

When i try submitting my RSS feed for a podcast itunes says we are experiencing technical difficulties...... why is this and when will it be fixed?

Well, I can't see any problem with the feed, and the episode media file is correctly referenced and plays. Incidentally you do have a 'copyright' tag - it says 'Wippenberg'.
When a podcast feed is rejected, corrected and resubmitted there is a minor bug in the Store which causes you to be told that the podcast has already been submitted (which is true but irrelevant - it's really meant to prevent duplicates). To get round this you need to make a small change to the title - for example you could add a hyphen and space before 'Podcast'. You can always change it back once it's been accepted.
The other issue might be the content. The reason given for rejection tends to be technical issues, whatever the actual reason is. I haven't listened to your podcast, so I can't comment directly. Possible reasons for rejection are unacceptable content, sexual content or strong language when the 'explicit' tag is not said to 'yes', and copyright infringement: a lot of people fall over this one by including 'mixes' or indeed full plays of commercially issued recordings without having written permission from the copyright owners or alternatively a valid Podcast Licence (not available in all countries, possibly only the USA). I have no idea whether this might be an issue with yours.

I want to download a free app. But iTunes wants my credit card information everytime and I get declined. Why and how do I fix it.

I want to download a free app. When I sign in then I have to sign in again to iTunes. Then it wants my credit card information as it always does. When I fill it out it says I'm decline and try a different card. Why it do that when the app is free. When first started iTunes I had no problem downloading apps. Why now since I used a card a few times does it ask me for my card information everytime now. Can't download any free apps without being declined.

Hello Snoweagle57,
It sounds like you are trying to download a free app, and when prompted to enter a credit card it is declined. I would use this article to go into iTunes and change your payment method to None:
Change or remove your payment information from your iTunes Store account (Apple ID)
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1918
If you are unable to select None, the following article may help you determine why:
Why can’t I select None when I edit my Apple ID payment information?

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,

HT201079 Am i able to use a different payment method if i am in family sharing?

I am in a family sharing group through iTunes store and app store. I do not want to charge the shared payment method, but instead pay with my own payment method. Am I able to do so? If so, How?

McDonald,
Yes. If you are not the Family Organizer, just put some credit on your own account by redeeming a gift card. Then purchases made by you will be charged against your credit rather than to the Organizer's credit card.

Impossible to use an Amex payment method in Luxembourg

I am trying to change my payment method from a no longer valid Mastercard to an Amex card. Unfortunately, the system does not let me submit an Amex payment method from Luxembourg - "Your payment method is not valid in this Store. Please enter a new payment method."

Your Amex card is registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, and it was issued by a Luxembourg bank. If it is then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes Support (these are user-to-user forums) and see if they know why it's being declined : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management

Inconsistent interface cause unintentional use of wrong payment method with worthless CS

I don't forsee anything coming from this, but I will put my experiences on here. I use Paypal quite a bit, and I use the same sites a lot. I have credit cards, and I usually want to pay by credit cards. But because I also have bank accounts attached, Paypal forces me to use a bank account as default payment source and credit card as backup. Because of this, everytime I buy something, I have to change payment sources. Over the years, I got used to the interface where you first enter username and password, and then it shows you how much you're paying, and what payment method you're using, and a button to actually buy it. Since last year or so, on some sites I would see a different interface where you enter a password and it immediately charges the default payment method. Because I got used to entering username and password and then reviewing payment information, I accidentally used my default method multiple times, but on relatively small things. What really got me though, was a recent transaction that I made for a website that charged a different currency. Because the website switched to the one-page checkout, I entered password and it instantly used my bank. I tried to close the page but the transaction already went through. I looked at the paypal transaction and the exchange rate paypal was giving was 3% off market rate and I lose out on 1.5% rewards, costing me about $10. I called Paypal customer service, but it was not open at the time. I called the next morning, and the guy said that because the transaction went through, I would have to contact the merchant. I asked him if there were other ways, and he said I could do a stop payment at the bank, which would cost more money than it was worth. I asked to talk to a manager, and the manager said that he could do nothing. I then told him that the unintuitive interface was costing me money and he squarely blamed me for the mistake and did not want to acknowledge that there could be anything bad about the UI setup, and did not provide any help. The manager blaming me for a mistake caused by inconsistent experience is what finally made it obvious that Paypal is fine with playing dirty and tricking customers. I called a different department and asked if the interface could be disabled for my account so that I can have a consistent experience, and it was declined. I then checked what causes the different interface, and noticed that it only happens if you have already paid on the website before and it remembers you. I contacted the merchant, but on the next business day when they got back to me, they said they could not because they already shipped the stuff, which is pretty much what I expected. From the fact that Paypal stands to make much more from a bank transaction than from a credit card transaction (2.x% vs 0.x%) and what I have experienced, I have lost trust in Paypal and I believe that Paypal is using sneaky tactics to trick customers into using bank payments, costing people card rewards and hoping that that people do not notice. With my customer service experience, it is obvious that Paypal does not care about customers enough to go beyond what all the other payment services provide with customer service. Luckily for me, even though I am out of luck on the transaction that already happened, I noticed that I could just remove all of my bank accounts and it will force the default to be a credit card. With that, the one-page payment actually will work well if my default is what I want. Once I can remove the bank account used for my latest transaction, I will hopefully be able to set my default to the credit card I want to use. If it has some odd rules about selecting defaults, I might just have to reduce my wallet to a single credit card, at which point I will probably slowly migrate off of Paypal.

Step by step, how did you arrive at seeing this agreement?
