    apps store wont let me download free app due to previous purchasing problem? help!!

    Is the address on your iTunes account exactly the same (format and spacing etc) as on your credit card bill ? If it's not then that might be the reason that you are getting the security code error : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646 ? If it is then you could try what it says at the bottom of that page :
    If the issue persists, contact your credit card company and verify that they and any company they use to process credit card authorizations have the correct information on file.
    And/or try contacting iTunes support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Express Lane, then iTunes > iTunes Store

  • My app store wont let me buy apps

    My app store wont let me buy apps, it says contact apple support. I have logged in and out and restarted my iPhone, nothing works

    If you see a dialog advising you to contact Apple support, then that's what you need to do in order to purchase apps.
    Go here >  https://getsupport.apple.com/Issues.action
    Then click:  Purchases, Billing, & Redemption
    Then click: Unable to purchase from iTunes Store

  • App store wont let me access account or download or sign out

    Whatever I try to do, app store wont let me do it.
    I want to download Mountain Lion, however all the account options seem to be light grey, and nothing I do will let me into my account on there, or download new things. When I go onto purchased, it says I need to sign in but when I click on store on the banner at top, it says I am signed in but when click sign out nothing happens. Driving me mad.
    Thanks.

    Nah its fine, tried it loads of times just doesn't seem to work , can't think of anything at all

  • I have an iphone 4 and recently changed my apple id password. I went through the verification successfully. For some reason, I can't sign into the app store on my iphone using my apple id and password.

    Apple doesn't monitor here. Best we can do is to push you to contact Apple directly.

    All content from iTunes is tied to the account that downloaded it, so the id that shows when trying to download updates should be the account that 'owns' that app. Do you recognise the id that is showing e.g. has anybody else downloaded or synced content to your iPad ?

  • I use more than one computer to access my four business email accounts. When one computer is on (and mail is open) emails do not get through to the other computers. This is fine, but how do I make one of the other computers the dominant one?

    I use more than one computer to access my four business email accounts. When one computer is on (and mail is open) emails do not get through to the other computers. This is fine, but how do I make one of the other computers the dominant one?

    I assume these are POP accounts and all computers are set to remove from Server after downloading.
    So on the non dominant ones... Mail Preferences>Accounts, highlight an account, Advanced tab, uncheck remove from Server, just have the main dominant one remove from server.
    Or get/setup IMAP accounts.

  • What do I do when my app store wont let me go back?

    I was just o  the App Store in the Featured folder when I clicked onto the App I liked. It took me to the page where I Could download it from my iPhone so  I downloaded it. When I went back to the page I was on it wouldn't let me go back to the Featured page. I can go to categories, search, Top 25, and updates..., but I can't redeem money or get back to Featured page. I reset my iPhone and it worked, but then it happened again.

    There have been reported problems with the App Store.  We'll just have to wait it out.

    Hello there, Tremonteo.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great recommendations for troubleshooting your issue:
    Can't connect to the iTunes Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1368
    Particularly:
    Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
    Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
    Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
    Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
    Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
    Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
    Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
    Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
    Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
    If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.
