ITunes won't let me buy a paid app?

Every time I try to buy a paid app on iTunes it says “For extra security please verify your apple I.D" then it makes me answer security questions which I don't remember answering. I also have 15 dollars in my account and a plethora of paid apps so a new account isn't an option. It will let me download free apps though. It started about a day ago when I redeemed my iTunes gift card. I never had this happen before. I also used some of my card on paid apps with no trouble. Could this have happened because I'm not using my credit card anymore? Also there is no way to reset the security questions.

  • ITunes won't let me buy songs

    I try to click to buy something and itunes won't let me buy it, no messages pop up, it just does nothing. I click and click and click, and nothing happens.

    I too had this problem after I redeemed two $50 gift cards.  I solved the problem by uninstalling iTunes and reinstalling it.  Give it a try.

  • My Itunes won't let me buy apps or songs, and I can't even download the free ones

    Hello.  I have an iphone 5.  Iv'e had it scince May of 2013 (this year).  I really haven't had any problems before with Itunes, but I can't buy songs or apps, and I cannot even download the free apps!  I have recently got an Itunes gift card for Christmas, and I put it into my Iphone, and Itunes says I have the money from the gift card.  I started to notice this when I was my grandparent's house a few days ago for Christmas, and it wouldn't let me get an app, even though it was free.  I thought it was because of a diffent type of WiFi or because I was at a different place, but when I got home, it still wasn't working.  Whenever I try to buy or download something, it says, "Verification Info."  I click continue, and it says that I need to buy money with a credt card, even though I have money in my account!  This has also happend to my sister (she has an iphone 4).  Please help!

    Hi there,
    The current file type is a VLC media file (.flac) (.flac), 34MB. I have never had any trouble adding music before, I have always been able to simply drag them into itunes and they have transferred perfectly so I don't have any idea what has changed.
    iTunes does not support FLAC. The formats supported by iTunes are -
    AAC, MP3, Apple Lossless, AIFF, and WAV
    In addition it is possible to import unprotected WMA files and during the import iTunes will make a new converted version (usually in AAC format).
    If you are using iTunes on a Mac there is a complicated unofficial method that will let you add FLAC files in to iTunes but this is not possible with iTunes for Windows.
    It is possible to use Apple Lossless in iTunes (as listed above this is officially supported) and use the same Apple Lossless files in Windows Media Player, Microsoft MediaCenter, foobar, WinAmp, dbPoweramp, VLC, and many others. Some of these need free plugins to add support for Apple Lossless but to illustrate it is possible, I have all my music in Apple Lossless (in iTunes), and share the same files with WMP and Microsoft MediaCenter.

  • ITunes won't let me buy this album?

    So i got an iTunes for Christmas and i have 15 dollars in my account and when i try to buy a 14.99 dollar album it keeps saying that 'insufficient credit remains' and asks me for a credit card and i'm trying to buy it with my gift card but it won't let me. HELP???!?!!?!

    That is becaue it appears that your local charges sales tax. The purchase price listed by Apple does not include any loca taxes.

  • I am trying to change my country but iTunes won't let me

    iTunes won't let me buy from my original country as the credit card is invalid in that country.  When I try to change the country it keeps reverting back to the original country.  How do I change the country without opening a new iTunes account?

    To buy items from an iTunes Store in another country you must have a valid credit card drawn on a local bank, and an address in the host country.

  • My iPod won't let me buy anything from iTunes or the App Store. How can i fix this?

    I have an iPod 4th Generation thats almost a year old. Recently, I traveled, and when I did, I put my iPod on Airplane mode and when i touched down, my iPod was acting up like crazy! For instance, when i would try and edit certain pictures, it would completely restart itself, and then it wouldn't let me listen to half the music that I had on it. Now that I am back home, I synced my iPod to my computer, and evrything went back to normal... or so I thought it did. Now I can't buy new apps, or songs, or update any of my existing applications. I am getting very frustrated with this and it's starting to get on my nerves!!! I would like to know why this is happening, and if I can do anything to help it. I also tried to re-sync it and it didn't work.

    Dmitri2217Did you notice that the post you are replying to is almost a year old?
    Apple is not reporting any problems currently.
