One last doubt about the Verification Required message when trying to download anything.

Hello guys, so this is the thing.
Like a lot of people here I'm getting the annoying message "Verification Required: Before you can make purchases, you must tap Continue to sign in, then verify your payment info". OK right now my son is using my iPad and I setted my credit card payment info to None, so he can't purchase anything. He's just trying to install free apps like messengers, alarms, free games and other free stuff, but so far he only installed Yahoo Messenger, which is a free app like everybody knows. However we haven't be able to download anything else because that message which prevents to download anything. Also I'm in a new address and can't update my personal data because I have selected the None option in credit cards.
So this is my doubt: If I checked None, it's suppossed I can't pay for anything, which is good to me right now because my son is ussing my iPad so, why I can't even download the free ones? I mean that's not logical to me.
Why I can't navigate through the App Store getting free apps without this annoying message which prevents me to install even free apps?
I just don't understand it.
I hope anyone can help me.
Best regards.

Try 3 things -
1. Double tap on the Home button, scroll through the appas until you get to the Apps Store one, press on it until the minus sign appears on it and then press of the minus sign. Go back to your Home page, selec the Apps store nd try again.
2. Do a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank power On again in the normal way.] It is absolutely/appsolutely safe!
3. Delete your card details in your Account details and try again.

    I get the following error message when trying to download ITunes on my computer running Windows XP - Error writing to file: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple Application Support\CFNetwork.dll

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

    Hi Robertfrom Denver.
    Did you try the solution given, and if yes, did it work?
    I have done several "attempted downloads, and see the full file download, typically taking 30 minutes to complete, and then something goes wrong.
    I am happy to suspend AV and FW software, but would like to know if it is a good fix or not first?

    Since updating OS to Mountain Lion from leopard, I get the following error message when trying to backup with time machine on external drive.  "Could not complete backup to media share.  The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features."  What are AFP features and how do I get Time Machine to backup to my current external backup?

    This means that your NAS does not support the required encryption. Update your NAS to the latest firmware or ditch it and buy a Time Capsule (they are the most reliable when using TM).

    have removed my pop-up blocker completely and still receive the following error message when attempting to download iTunes:  "The file was blocked because it does not have a valid digital signature that verifies its publisher".....any ideas?

    That suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

  • I receive the following error message when trying to install QuickTime for Windows "Error writing to file C:/Program Files/QuickTime/QTSystems/QuickTimeCheck.ocx. Verify that you have access to that directory."

    I recieve the following error message when trying to install Quicktime for Windows "Error writing to file C:/Program Files/QuickTime/QTSystems/QuickTimeCheck.ocx. Verify that you have access to that directory."  I just trying to get the latest version of iTunes.  Thanks

    "Error writing to file C:/Program Files/QuickTime/QTSystems/QuickTimeCheck.ocx. Verify that you have access to that directory."
    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • Why am I getting 'VIs using Latched/Snap boolean cannot be downloaded' message when trying to download to the FP2000?

    Using LabVIEW 6.0.3 RT

    LabVIEW RT has two modes of opeation: Development mode and Deployed mode.
    In the development mode Labview provides you with a USER INTERFACE for debugging purposes but at the end you want to be in the Deployed mode where you develop the user interface to communicate with your embedded vi with differents ways like TCP/IP, UDP, DataSocket, VI SERVER, etc.
    Therefore, not all the mechanical actions for boolean controls/indicators are supported under real time.
    Remember that you dont have a physical interaction with the interface.
    In the figure 2 you can see the 6 diferents mechanical actions available for LabVIEW, however for the VIs that are going to be embedded the only 4 supported are
    the first two colums. If you use one of the two in the last colum
    n you will get the warning message when trying to download the application.
    You will need to use the supported mechanical actions for your application.

    I receive the follwing error message when trying to open my ipod touch/itunes "the itunes libary.itlfile is lockedon  a lockdisk or you do not have write permission on this file. How do I resolve this problem?

    Repair iTunes Security Permissions
    Right-click on your main iTunes folder and click Properties, then go to the Securitytab and click Advanced. Use the Change Permissions... button grant to your account (or the Users group) and SYSTEM full control of this folder, subfolders and files, then tick the option to Replace permissions entries... which will repair permissions throughout the library. When complete switch to the General tab, click in the Read-only check box to clear it, then click Apply.
    If you don't have the option to change the permissions then use the Owner tab and Edit... button to take ownership from an account with administrator privileges. Tick the option to Replace owner on subcontainers and objects.
    Repeat with the media folder if it isn't stored inside the main iTunes folder.
    If you've brought over the library from another computer you may also want to remove any "mystery" identities (S<string of dashes & digts>) that have come over from the old computer...
    The images above are from Windows 7. Hopefully the system isn't too different in Windows 8.
