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.

Are the apps in your iTunes library on your computer and did you select them to sync? Are you sure that you are syncing correctly?

Tried to back up music before new OS was loaded but for some reason, it only kept artists through the letter J. I did not realize that until I restored my iTunes under new OS. Now I tried to download my iTunes purchases from the iPod and I can select the "Transfer Purchases from iPOD" but then nothing seems to happen. I tried to download form iTunes and it says the songs are already on my computer. This is either because I did originally download them to this computer on the old operating system or because the names are still in iTunes even though the file associated with them is not. I'm not sure. I don't know what to try next but it is nearly 600 songs so I need to figure it out.
Does iTunes recognize the phone at all? Or just the computer?

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.

Either:
iTunes is trying to protect you from the ugly side of the adult world
Your parents are trying to protect you from the ugly side of the adult world
You've turned on the Parental/Content Restrictions by mistake
Look in iTunes at Edit/Preferences/Parental>Content Restrictions>Restrict explicit content and make sure the tick is not in the checkbox.

I can't install and update any application, even for the free app the system ask me to sign in to the billing payment. Even though that I did sign, it still declined. Any one could help, please
All Apple iTunes Store accounts must have a valid form of payment set up. Even for free apps and updates. The Payment Declined message comes from your card issuer or payment source; Apple is just a pass-through for the message. You need to find out why your issuer is declining your card.

My Ipod Touch have a black screen when an app shut down and I can not shut down the Ipod. The screen is still black and I did the press two buttons solution and it doesn't work. What I have to do now?
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Why can't I download the free Apple apps for my new iPhone 5S? It was set up in store and restored from my iPod Touch 5.
Are you logged in with the same account that was used to activate the phone ? If you are, and the apps aren't showing as free, then try logging out of your account by tapping on it at the botto of the Featured tab in the App Store app and then log back in and see if they then show as free.

Another user had success doing the following:
I got some help from an apple assistant on the phone. It is kind of round about way to get in.
Here is what he said to do and it is working for me...
a. on the device that is asking you for the security questions go to "settings", > "store" >
tap the Apple ID and choose view"Apple ID" and sign in.
b. Tap on payment information and add a credit/debit card of your preference then select
"done", in the upper right corner
c. sign out and back into iTunes on the device by going to "settings"> "store" > tap the
Apple ID and choose "sign-out" > Tap "sign -in" > "use existing Apple ID" and you
should be asked to verify your security code for the credit /debit card and NOT the
security questions.
d. At this time you can remove the card by going back in to edit the payment info and
selecting "none" as the card type then saving the changes by selecting "done". You
should now be able to use your iTunes store credit without answering the security
questions.
It's working for me ...I just have to put in my 3 digit security pin from the credit card I am using.
Good Luck friends!
