N8 Can't buy app in Ovi Store: Server error, we ar...

Dear friends
I use Nokia N8 and Ovi store 2.0. As the the title states, when I press buy button in Ovi store it shows “Server error, we are experiencing problems with the payment service. You will be taken back to the catalog page.”
It occurs to all apps not specific app. The price shows correctly in local currency. I still didn't enter any card number.
I've contacted Nokia call center which they received the issue with no response and solution for more than 1 week.
If this has happened to you before, please share the solution. Thank you in advance.

Nokai - connecting people?  They seem to struggle to connect me to myself!  I had already logged in to this site four times, and had to log in again just to contribute to this discussion.  It's no wonder they are taking such a drubbing from Apple.
I have the same problem as described above when trying to buy and app from the OVI store with my new N8, and that problem continues even when I download the version of the store application that is optimised for my phone.
(While I'm on that subject, has anyone else had the odd experience of being told repeatedly to download the OVI app store, despite the fact that it is already installed?)
Please, Nokia, get your act together.  Not that anyone probably reads these things, given the exceptionally poor response.
Former Nokia enthusiast, now angry, cheated, disrespected, disregarded soon-to-be former customer. Ovi Suite, Ovi Store, the execrable web site and the unreliable N8 have created a perfect storm of cell phone hell.

  • Can't download apps from ovi store

    Hi, i have a nokia 5530 xm
    i had some corrupted music files in my music library so i made a back up-file on the computer and erased everything on the memorycard
    Then i loaded all the stuff back on the memorycard. But then almost all my apps were gone, so i tried to download them again. But i can't click the 'download' button (it's dark gray, like if you've already clicked it) so i think the ovi store remembers that i have downloaded the apps before and it's like i have got them on my phone but i have checked all the installed apps and all the installation files in the application manager but they aren't there.
    Anyone knows what to do about this?

    Hello , what a great response thanks  for being so quick I tried again through the phone but its like it just skips straight to my empty account details without pausing for me to set up anything, so I literally click "buy" and then get a verfication error no other options I dont understand . Why cannot Nokia make it simple I think it is bad marketing not to make it easier after all I am an adult and like you say I should be perfectly capable or controlling my account and should be able to do it though my account not just on  the phone. They are losing out here as there are loads I want to get plus I now almost wish I was not so anti apple.
    the store still has more to be desired....
    even logging in on phone and going to account info doesnt let us change or see the payment options..pretty wack.
    f you are using a symbian device, then you are not stuck to using ovi store,   you can find other stores that sell applications and even choose where you would like to purchase those applications based on the site you want to support....you can do this on an elppa product! 
    pm me is you would like a recomendation.

    Hi, I'm living in the US for a while but I just have french credit cards, how can I buy App from the App Store US??

    You need a payment method associated with the country you are in.  I would purchases an iTunes Gift card in the USA and use that as your payment method and then delete the card from the account.  You may also have the change the addess in your iTunes aaccount t a USA account.

    Accepted payment types
    You need an Apple ID to buy items in the iTunes Store, Mac App Store, App Store and iBookstore. When you create an Apple ID for any of these stores, you will need to provide a payment method for purchases. The available payment methods vary by country, but typically you can use:
    Credit cards
    iTunes Cards
    iTunes Store Gift Certificates
    Content Codes
    Store credit (including Allowance Account balances)
    ClickandBuy
    PayPal
    In countries where the iTunes Store only sells apps, the accepted payment methods are Visa, MasterCard, and American Express. Other payment types such as gift cards, store credit, monthly allowances, ClickandBuy, and PayPal are not accepted. Depending on your App Store country, prices may be listed in your local currency, US Dollars, or Euros.

    Hi all,
    Thanks for the feedback. 
    Please use the search function as your question may be asked, and answered before.
    When you look at the page in the store you will see a link below the buttons which says:
    As you can see on the above image (and on the Nokia Store app pages) you need to install Nokia Drop for the buttons to activate.
    Hope this helps,
    Kosh

  • Since two weeks, I can't buy from my home store in Thailand.

    Since two weeks, I can't buy from my home store in Thailand anymore because I cannot read the language.
    Before, I could access any item I wanted and I bought devices and articles worth many thousands of US-Dollars over the years.
    The problem is that due to my profession, I've been living in many different countries within tha past 20 years, currently I am staying in China.
    My home is in Thailand but as native German, I can speak Thai reasonably but I can hardly read.
    Until two weeks ago whenever I logged into my account, everything came up in English and I could buy whatever I wanted.
    Now, as soon as I log in, everything comes up in Thai and the articles on the Thai market are very limited - so I'm snookered.
    When I change the store to German or American, I can look what I want but it won't let me buy and reverts to the Thai store again.
    I cannot create and sign in with another Apple-ID because I do not have any methods of payment, an alien CC nor in Germany neither in the States, so I'm snookered again.
    I tried getting support and spend days and nights now without making any progress in finding a solution.
    Momentarily, I'm so very much p...... off, that I would like to take ALL of my Apple stuff and get rid of it.
    It's not the first time that I'm extremely disappointed with Apple.
    As I mentionend, I lived in many countries over the years with quite a number of different Apple-IDs.
    Ever tried to retrieve your password or ID???? Have Fun...... ridiculous!
    I almost made my mind up and throwing the whole Apple-shebang and settle for something else instead.
    I would have got rid of everything already but it's too much money lost that I spent on my Apple stuff already.
    This is the final straw I'm clinging to now......
    Anybody an idea what I can do???? or am I snookered without any chance to get another shot????
    Thanks,
    Som_Olli.

    The option to send reset info only appears if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account. If you don't have one (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get the questions reset : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551
    e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then try Apple ID Account Security
    or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
