ITunes store does not accept my Password anymore.

I'm still having the same problem ... 6 months after your original post! I've just had to reset my pw 2 days in a row, and I've been through so many resets over the past 6 months that I'm running out of ideas for passwords that I'll have a reasonable chance of remembering. But I also always make a careful note of my important passwords, and after the 1st "password error" message, I check my list and enter the password very slowly and carefully. So, I think I'm pretty safe in claiming that neither entering the wrong password nor making a typo is the problem!
Oddly, though, I could usually cancel the password-reset process, then go right to the the iTunes Store, where my password would work fine, allowing me to open and view all my account details.
Several months ago, I spent about 45 minutes on the phone with Tech Support trying to get this fixed. He was great and we thought he'd found the problem with my account. (When I originally set up my iTunes account 6 years ago, I used a different email address than I used when I set up my new Mac last year, and that seemed to be causing some sort of conflict within my account. Hard to imagine someone might change email addresses sometime over a 6-year period, right? But apparently, the software designers didn't cover that possibility with one of their recent updates of the master system for customers' accounts -- that's the Tech Rep's surmise, not mine.)
Everything seemed to work fine for a few weeks, but then the problem started occurring again ... over and over and over ...

Lenovo T60 issue - security center does not accept my password anymore??

Hi to all and thanks in advance for any help given.............Lenovo T60 issue
Everything was working as it should then a popup box came up when i was logged in and informed me that "I" had changed the password that is connected to my finger reader (online passwords have also been changed and do not work online using the finger reader) and could i now type my password into the popup on the screen.
When i do this it still does not work - wrong password - i have tried all of the passwords i use - so i have had to uninstall the part that deals with that, i then reinstalled it just in case it was an application issue but after re-installation it was the same as before.??
I can still use the finger reader but i do not like to rely on one secure form of login, and if it fails it could take a while to find out how to login otherwise,
thanks

I had a similar problem, but it was becuase I deleted the user account that the PC was set up with. Security Center would not work with any Administrative account. So I had to put the user back in the system with the same original name. Hope that helps.

The iTunes store does not accept my security code

I am trying to update my iTunes account billing information on the iTunes store and it will not accept the security code for the bank card attached to my account.

Try updating your billing address in iTunes.
If it's correct the other suggestions here might help -> iTunes Store: My credit card's security code or zip code does not match my bank's records

Screen Sharing does not accept my password anymore

Hi
I have a headless Mac Mini Server running Snow Leopard Server 10.6.8 and a MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard 10.6.8. I detected this morning, that I'm not able to connect from the MacBook Pro to my Mac Mini over Screen Sharing. All other services, mail server, iCal server, Address Book server, file sharing over SMB or AFP even connecting over VNC do work.
- I select the Mac Mini symbol in Finder
- in column view, I select Share Screen...
- in the connection dialog, I add the password (username is already predefined)
- on connect, I get: Authentication failed to "servername". Please verify you have entered the correct name and password.
I use the same username and password with Server Admin, or logging in locally over VNC so I know this is correct.I'm sure I did not change any settings concerning screen sharing (I did some experiments with WebDAV recently)
I'm not sure, when I used Screen Sharing the last time, is there a log on the server for this? Could be, the problem was introduced with 10.6.8, but I'm not sure. From the logs I see, Screen Sharing did work on July, 16th. This would narrow it down to: iTunes 10.4 (not likely), Migration Assistant Update for Mac OS X SL 1.0, and Remote Desktop Client Update 3.5.1.
On the server, I found the following log entries: Jul 21 20:24:33 servername AppleVNCServer[1362]: no such user: user@LKDC:SHA1.xxxxxx: 2
Any help on this problem?

Sorry if that didn't come out right. I should have taken the time to get the correct labels off of the user preferences dialogue and it would have made more sense.
When you create a new user, there are two fields: one for "Full Name" (typically the user's actual name) and another for "Account name" (this usually a more Unix-like user-id). On my system, typing "John Doe" into the Full Name box automatically populates "johndoe" into the Account Name box. I would guess the majority of Mac users will leave that default in there, type in a password and hint and complete creating the account.
Interestingly, you cannot view the Account name in the user preferences dialogue once the account is created. However, the Account name is used as the name of your Home folder.
In the past, I've used that Account name when connecting to shares in finder. I just verified that when you open finder and click "Connect As" and choose "Registered User," the authentication prompt in SL automatically has the Account name in the user field. Once connected in finder, all I had to do is click Screen Sharing and it would just open up. Presumably since I had already authenticated via finder. After the last updates, I started getting a password prompt only when attempting to start screen sharing. Finder still worked the same as before, and I was able to view all my folders. Using the Full Name instead of the Account name got me through the second password prompt and opened the screen sharing session.
I tried authenticating the finder with the Full Name instead, and still got the second authentication prompt when launching screen sharing. Clearly Apple has made a change to screen sharing that no longer passes through your finder authentication.
If you've somehow already been using the Full Name, and not the Account name, to authenticate in finder, this fix doesn't help you.
What I meant by "feeling stupid" is going to great lengths to step through a lot of troublesome reboots and whatnot, only to discover that the problem is an arcane, and apparently pointless change with which user name on the account authenticates for two apparently related features (you do go through finder to get to screen sharing!). I certainly didn't mean you were stupid. I wouldn't blame you for having to figure out something Apple changed up after years for no apparent reason. I wasn't real happy about it either after wasting an hour or so figuring it out. My poor choice of words was really meant in the spirit of that "d'oh!" moment when you find the trivial 5 second fix after spending that hour (or days) doing lots of potentially risky stuff to no avail.

ITunes store does not recognize my password

Do I need a different password for iTunes Store or should it recognize my apple ID passwords?

App store does not accept my password

This is all of my problem. On my iPhone when I want to download something from the AppStore it always tells me that the password is incorrect. I checked the Id and it seems to be correct. So I try it on my Mac and it does not work. It tells me that the apple id must be in email form (I put it in without email ending). I add the email ending and it works. Glad it works so I tried it on my phone and it didnt work. I noticed that before I entered the password it says just "example" where it should be "[email protected]" I went to see if I can change the settings it says it is in email form. But it removes the email ending when I am in the AppStore. Is there anyway to fix this??? PLEASE HELP ME??? thank you

All apps, all paid and free apps include DRM protection which is tied to the iTunes account/Apple ID that was used to download the apps. You will need to use the Apple ID that was used to download the apps to install app updates.
Apps downloaded with one Apple ID can't be transferred to another ID and accounts can't be merged.

Itunes store does not accept my international credit card, which is Diners internacional, and i think my credit card is discover in the USA. So what do i have to do to buy on itunes store?

i want to know how i can buy on itunes store with my international credit card, which is Diners Club international, and I think my credit car is call Discover in the USA.

Well, I can certainly understand the licensing argument if I were using a Japanese credit card with a Japanse address and making a purchase with Japanese yen from the US Store from Japan.
When I am making a purchase with US card from the US store with US dollars, the argument becomes a bit suspect (I know it is Apple's, not your argument).
it is just kind of a paradoxical situation and I am hoping Apple will offer some sort of solution. We can always hoe, right?
Thank you for your reply.

HT1414 When trying to use new apple ID to download apps told that the iTunes Store does not accept details- please contact support etc..?

Cannot download anything on new iPad until Apple ID has been used in iTunes Store, try to enter details as asked and then told to contact support...?

You said, "the 4 also has signal and wifi whereas the 5 has only wifi". By "signal", I'm assuing that you mean cellular signal. If so, that means your iPhone 4 is still active on your cellular number and your iPhone 5 is not. Contact your carrier to sort out which phone is active on your account.

HT1918 Itunes store does not accept my credit card anymore.

I know my card is fine. How can i solve this issue, find out what's going on? I can't find any contact information for this problem, please help me.
Thanks in advance.

The last app purchase did not go well. I still owe some money to the app store, but for some reason, because of this, it refuses my credit card details, even though they are correct and the bank says my card is fine.

The Mac App store does not accept my password for my apple ID. A red line appears that says "an unknown error has occured." The ID and Password are being typed in correctly, I am 100% sure of that.

I was going to update to Mavrick, but not sure I should with all the negative reviews and now this problem. Please help, thanks!

It's been reported that Apple's servers are having problems tonight. Just try again later.

Select your language.
Once on the desktop, select Utility in the menu bar.

ITunes Store does not show author and "album artwork" of my podcast

Although all information is available - the itunes store does not mention the author and "album artwork" of my podcast - if podcast is downloaded, album artwork is shown...
How can I add the informatin (especially that author is not "unknown" anymore)
http://itunes.apple.com/de/podcast/nie-mehr-schuchtern-der-podcast/id404201576?i =88951302

For reference, you feed is at http://kontaktvoll.de/tinc?key=r5FOIixD
This is not a valid podcast feed for iTunes. It's missing the 'itunes declaration' in the second line. The top two lines of your feed should read as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<rss xmlns:itunes="http://www.itunes.com/dtds/podcast-1.0.dtd" version="2.0">
Without that, iTunes cannot read the 'itunes' tags which are necessary to carry some of the information, and which in any case are missing from your feed. The author name is carried in the 'itunes:author' tag and the image in the 'itunes:image' tag.
This page contains a basic sample feed so you can see what it should look like and how these tags are formed:
http://www.wilmut.org.uk/pc
If you are hand-writing this feed it's a good idea to put returns in after each closing tag, as in the sample. At the moment most of your feed is on one line and this makes it very difficult to read when looking for problems, particularly as you add more episodes.
