Maestro Card Problems

Morning,
Recently, I have been having problems with my Maestro card in the UK store. Essentially, I am stuck in a loop. When I try to purchase a song I am told that my payment details have changed and that I must confirm them before I continue - which I do before being taken back to the song. When I then try to buy the item again, I get the same message.
If I change my payment method to a MasterCard (which I really do not want to use, hence this post), the purchase goes-through as normal. I have tried removing the card details and re-entering. I've also re-installed iTunes and spoken to my bank to ensure there is no conflict there. My details at myinfo.apple.com are also correct.
Apple support have so far only come up with the option of buying gift cards with my Meastro.
Has anyone else been suffering with their Meastro ("The New Cash"), and have they resolved the issue?
Cheers
Rich

Hi. All. Same problem here too. I have been trying for days to buy an audio-book with no luck just get stuck in the loop of confirming then purchase then confirm etc..etc...Got in touch with Itunes support sent me the following email which does not solve the problem.
So any ideas because if they know they are not telling. Also spoke to bank who said all should be fine with using the card on Itunes. I have done all possible to get this to work so now it's down to Apple to sort this out as i have a feeling it could become an epidemic for then in the UK. Oh just got an appt at local Apple store too so will have words.

1) Your financial institution's servers have been busy. Consider trying again at another time.
2) There is an issue with your card. Consider using a different card or contacting your financial institution to advise them of the problem.
3) Your billing name or address does not match the address listed on your credit card statement. Any discrepancy in punctuation, abbreviation, or capitalization can cause errors, which might prevent you from purchasing from the iTunes Store. If you moved, or if your zip code changed recently, ask your financial institution to make sure their records are up to date and match exactly what you are entering as your billing information.
Please follow these steps to confirm or update your account information:
1) Go to Apple's My Info page: http://myinfo.apple.com
2) Choose your country and preferred language from the pop-up menus.
3) Enter your iTunes Store account name and password and then click Log In (or Continue).
4) At the My Info Welcome page, click Address Book on the left. Confirm or edit your information.
5) Click Phone Numbers on the left. Make sure the area codes and phone numbers are entered correctly in their respective fields.
6) Click Save Changes.
Try placing an order on the iTunes Store. If the iTunes Store still cannot obtain an authorization for your card, you won't be able to make purchases at the iTunes Store with that particular card. You can use a different card or any other payment method that is available in your country.
iTunes Gift Cards are another option. They are available in $15, $25, and $50 denominations at various retailers in your area. They are also available at any Apple Store location, including the Apple Store online:

  • How to open game center with a maestro card

    Hello,
    How can I start in I -tunes and game center with à maestro card and not with à credit card?
    Thanks, Gazer.

    I have the same problem . I don't understand why iTunes and AppStore does not support maestro cards. It's just annoying that you can't buy anthing anyway without a credit card or gift card.

  • How do I register Apple ID if I have a Maestro card?

    I have a iPod touch 4G running on iOS 4.3.5. I have Apple ID but i can't download anything from Appstore whitout a card. So i made a Maestro card but i still can't register. Is there any way i can register Apple ID with Maestro card?
    Thanks

    Thanks! I used MobileMe support instead and got an immediate chat line to someone who helped me fix the problem. Somehow my birthdate was off by a day and my backup email is already associated with my legacy Apple ID (that all my purchases are associated with). This is the trouble with not being able to merge a legacy Apple ID with a legacy MobileMe account after the iCloud transition!
    The irony is, I'd be happy continue paying for iCloud the way I paid for MobileMe if there was a direct line to help! But putting AppleCare on any of my 6 Apple devices that are already covered by purchase protection just isn't worth it.

  • MacBook Pro 15" video card problems (i think)

    Can anyone tell me if this is indeed a video card problem?
    MBP 15" info (Dec. 2011)
    Processor 2.4 GHz Intel Core i7
    Memory 4GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    Graphics Intel HD Graphics 3000 384 MB
    OS X Lion 10.7.5
    This is what happened:
    I use my mbp heavily because I edit a lot of videos with Premiere. I also use lightroom / photoshop alot + games. I also installed Parallels desktop late 2013. I don't know if that is relevant but anyway. Everything started late 2013 (a little after installing parallels actually) when there are moments when the audio wouldn't work and I couldn't adjust the volume. It would come back anyway so i didn't mind it. Then the fans were on high speed for little activity. After that the keyboard backlight couldn't be adjusted and wouldnt work. I ignored all of these cuz i wasn't troubling me at the time. In January i left for france to study - I use bike all the time and once stupidly placed my laptop on the basket going to school (rough roads). I had a class with html so I had to open Parallels, my teacher pointed out the fans and how loud they were. That day, parallels desktop said i must upgrade to windows 9 or it will restart every 2hours. I didn't of course. I didn't have time to.
    After that (a few days later i think) my laptop would randomly turn into a black screen but it's still on (the power LED is on) I tried turning it off by pressing down the power button and then turning it back on. It worked the first time. During the first week, the frequency of it happening grew. It would do it almost 3 times a day. during that same week I tried to do an SMC reset. It fixed the keyboard light, fans and audio but not the black screen thing. It just keeps on happening around 1-3 times a day. It only happens when I'm using it btw, never when I just leave it. ALSO, after a few days, it would take longer hours to open my mbp again. I mean, the screen would turn black. i would turn it off, then on again. I will ONLY hear the hard drive moving but no startup sound and no grey screen and apple logo. nothing.
    The following weeks after that, I asked a friend to help me out. He suggested that I install gfxCardStatus because he said it might be my video card. He instructed that I keep it on intergrated only. So I installed that and did what he said I thought it worked for a while because the black screens stopped happening (even when gfx keeps on going back to dynamic) BUT NOW, MY LAPTOP WOULD FREEZE (not turn black). I'd shut it down using the power button but it still takes me hours to open it again. Sometimes, I'd wait for the battery to drain because it would startup when i charge it (sometimes)
    I tried doing AHT as well to confirm the video card problem, but the results are no problems found. I really don't want to replace my logicboard here in france. everything is more expensive here. ;__;
    Today I uninstalled parallels to see if that might have had anything to do with my problem now but i think that's just wishful thinking.
    Can somebody tell me if this is really about the video card? Thank you

    Your appointment at the genius Bar in an Apple Store (anywhere in the world) for an evaluation is FREE, in warranty or out. Those guys put their hands on these Macs all day every day, and they are especially good at Physical and Power problems.
    Ask them.

  • Graphic card problem maybe? Since when I have changed the hard drive to my macbook pro and I installed all the new softwares, my mac is very slow and the screen gives crazy pictures,could maybe be the graphic card, does anybody have experienced this?

    after a restart it works for a time, but always slow. I went to the Applestore this afternoon and the made a check and said it would be the logicboard and they would have to change it for CHF 600 and it would be ready in 10 - 15 days

  • Credit Card problem

    Hi,

    The card was debited by Adobe the 25th, but still, I get a warning when I start a CC app stating that there is a problem with the payment and CC will stop wotking in 13 days. Adobe has recieved my money so please fix this asap.
    I have been in contact with Chat-support two time, but no help from them
    /Stefan

    After many,many, many  hours of trying I was finally not refused when trying to connect to your payment server (as a first time buyer). So I was asked for my credit card details for the purchase of an application - which I stated. But when I tried to confirm the purchase, my VISA card was refused twice due to "Credit card error". As I know there is nothing wrong with my credit card, please tell me what to do in order to purchase applications from the ovi store.  I don't want to pay many times over for an application which I never downloaded from OviStore. But I anyhow also tried my AmEx-card for the purchase of another app, but same "Credit-card" problem. To say that "I am not amused" with my OviStore experience so far must be the understatement of the century.

    can someone help me ? could it be a video card problem ? anyone had this problem ?
    I have to force shut down and it's quite annoying
    thanks

    Restart your MacBook and hold down on the "d" key for "diagnostics". This will startup the MacBook into the Apple Hardware Test. Run the extended tests. Let's see if you don't get an error when it checks the video system.

  • Is anyone still having discrete graphics card problems after replacement

    Is anyone still having discrete graphics card problems after replacement?
    Macbook Pro eligible for replacement through Apple program.
    Submitted my computer 2 days before program came into effect.
    They replaced card or logic board with same original model: AMD Radeon HD 6770M 1024 MB
    Issued me a refund check for my repair.
    Seems to have some noticeable issues, fan running more than usual again, and temporary graphic lines,
    but disappear too fast before a screen dump...
    Is anyone who has participated in the replacement program received a different graphic card for
    Model Macbook Pro 17" (late 2011)
    Thank you for the reply.

    Unfortunately I have yet to call AppleCare because I am on a project for 3 weeks and cannot be without my laptop during that period....
    Until that time I am trying to figure out what I can do to protect the Palm Rest/Mouse Pad area of my Macbook once they either fix it or give me a new one. Has anyone had any experience with either of these products that can provide some input as to whether they are good or bad?

  • I solved my credit card problem

    ..adobe couldn't charge my monthly payment today because of my credit card problem..and my membership changed to non-payment membership...my credit card problem solved now....how can i change my membership to payment membership again..

    Hi erincertuggoktas,
    I would just like to add Romit's reply that you can try this & check if it works,
    1. Sign out & sign back in to CCapp (desktop).
    2. Launch any product, it will throw a prompt to renew the subscription, at the bottom an option of "license this software" will be displayed.
    3. Please click on this & it will ask you to sign in & the subscription should be activated.
    Note:The process works when the subscription is active & payment transaction has been completed.
    Regards,

  • Audigy 2 sound card problems

    I am hoping that someone out there can help me in a crucial situation.
    I am using an Audigy 2 sound card with creative 5. speakers.
    I also use Adobe Audition to edit, record sessions for my voice-over jobs.
    Recently, I attempted to hook up a web cam so that I could see my grand daughter on the west coast.
    After hooking up the web cam, I noticed my home studio environment changed drastically. I began having trouble with recording using my microphone through my Macki mixer. I began hearing a continuous hiss that I had never experienced before.
    In fact after uninstalling the web cam, and restarting my computer, I got that horrible blue screen on my computer indicating the world was about to end! Smile
    Long story short, I was able to finally get my computer back up, but I continue to experience problems recording "clean' audio".
    Three things, after reinstalling Creative from disc several times and restarting my computer I receive a window stating Creative Media Source Detector.....Unable to load needed components....Please reinstall the application"
    Also, when trying to test my sound hardware I get a message stating...Direct play voice setup..."an error occurred during direct play voice setup....error code 0x80004005
    Last but not least I cannot access the "Creative diagnostic feature on my computer. I only get a small window for this feature that will not open up fully and allow me to run a diagnostic test!
    I know this is a lot to absorb, but I cannot get anyone from Creative to address my problems because I am out of warranty and therefore not getting any love from this company.
    Need your advice and or guidance on this.
    Please respond when time allows.

    Re: Audigy 2 sound card problems? use add/remove programs and remove all creative software and drivers, then do the same for your web cam and unplug it
    restart your pc
    download and install [url="http://downloads.guru3d.com/Guru3D---Driver-Sweeper-%28Setup%29-download-655.html" rel="nofollow">driver sweeper[/url] and use it to clean up any left over creative bits and bobs and restart your pc when it asks you to
    now download and install the [url="http://support.creative.com/Products/product_list.aspx?catID=&CatName=Sound+Blaster" rel="nofollow">latest audigy drivers[/url]
    once your back in to windows try recording something and see if everything's back to normal
    now reinstalling your web cam but don't reinstall using the cd that came with it
    find the manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers
    install cd's best avoided simply because the software and drivers they contain are typically the initial release versions, and so potentially very old
    and i think we can all agree that old, buggy drivers can be a real pain

  • MacPro Early 2008 Display/Video Card Problem

    *Hello, I have a Dual Quad-Core 2.8Ghz MacPro (Early 2008) with the stock ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT 256MB Video Card. I believe I am having the exact same symptoms listed on the topic "Mac Pro 2008 Video Card Problem".*
    *MacPro has been working fine. Until one day, I power it on and the display stays black. There is nothing you can do besides holding down the power button and rebooting the computer. I have tried to do this many times and the display will not come up. I have also tried resetting the VRAM and PRAM settings - still did not work. I have had my MacPro for about one year and a half. It is in very good condition (no damage/no liquid/no overheating). From time to time, you power on the computer and the display works! It is very random. I am scared to turn off the computer or put it to sleep as this can also trigger the problem.*
    *I did not get the extended AppleCare (the MacPro itself already cost me about $3400!) I tested the Cinema Display and it is fine, therefore the problem is not coming from the display.*
    *I went to the Apple Store and they kept my MacPro for one night. Called me the next day telling me it was going to cost me approximately $800 in order to fix this problem. They claimed that either my Bluetooth module or my Main Logic Board was causing the display not to show. I am out of warranty, and I think it is very expensive. I am doing my research online in order to try and find a cheaper solution. After reading the discussions and checking out some other websites. I have a few questions:*
    *If I buy a NEW* ATI Radeon HD 2600 and install it in my MacPro - will it fix my problem?*
    *OR - I also heard about the ATI Radeon HD 4870 - Is that graphic card compatible with my MacPro - will that resolve the problem?*
    *Do you think I should give it a shot? Are there any other things I can try?*
    *I am thinking that I should try to replace the graphic card first and see if that is causing the problem instead of replacing the Main Logic Board right away (which will cost me over $500)*
    *Please let me know of any thoughts that come in mind. I really need some support. I am a college student studying Audio Engineering and I use my MacPro everyday on Pro Tools and Logic. This machine is my life.*
    *Thank You,*
    *Kevin C.*

    Glad you solved your problem Gaunja. Here's an update on my own.
    When last heard from I had diagnosed the failure of my displays to boot up to graphics card problem in my early 2008 Mac Pro with my stock ATI Radeon HD 2600 by swapping out the same card from my son's Mac Pro and seeing the displays boot up fine. Before heading off to the Apple store for a new card I reinstalled my suspect video card just to see what would happen. The displays booted up fine. Now, two weeks later, again no video display--black screens--no signal from the graphics card. I rebooted the computer several times to no avail and was, again, about to head off to the Apple store for a new card. This time "just to see what would happen" I moved the graphics card to another slot and bingo, the displays are up. What can be determined from my experience to date?
    1. The graphics card is flirting with death. Like a patient unwilling to die, through a mysterious force, it rallies to live another day.
    2. The slot the card came installed in is unreliable--it's dirty, there's a spec of dust in there, a contact has degraded after two years, or some other slot related fault. Note that, until the card failed for the first time, it had never been removed from it's slot, the computer was treated gently, and it operated in a very clean environment.
    If anyone has another theory about what may be happening here please feel free. I fully expect the displays to go dark again at some point as my suspicions are that it's the card itself that is the problem. The two replacement cards I'm considering are the ATI Radeon HD 4870 or the Nividia Geo Force GT120. I've read that both work with the early Mac Pros. Some complain that the ATI card is noisy and expensive. Based of Gaunja's post and others I think the Nividia card will suit my needs, be quieter, and cost less. But, for now, my stock ATI Radeon 2600 lives!
    Just one man's experience with the "Mac Pro display, black screen" problem.

  • HT4993 i been having sim card problems with my iphone 5. am i the only one?

    i been having sim card problems with my iphone 5. am i the only one?

    Hello,
    I'm also had problems with Iphone 5 , it read no sim card, i solved problem by removing sim card and cleaning with alcohol and q-tip and installing back.
    Shut down phone.
    On the side of phone , you will see a small pin hole, insert paper clip and sim card will come out, be careful to do it over a clean towel as not to let drop on floor, make sure your hands clean while doing this.
    Insert sims card back and turn on, it should work again.
    Good Luck.
