Password not accepted when downloading new apps

I recently changed my password and am able to update my apps. But - when I want to download/purchase a new app (free or paid), ​there is a popup prompting me for my password. When I enter my new password, it isn't accepted. Any solutions?

Did you change the password that is stored in Settings/iTunes & App Stores?

    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...
    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.
    Tap on payment information and add a credit/debit card of your preference then select "done", in the upper right corner
    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.
    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!

  • Why does order of apps and folders change when downloading new apps?

    Since I've downloaded iOS 6 on my iPhone 4s, whenever I download a new app, it goes at the beginning of page 2 on my desktop which of course changes the order of all the apps and folders. It didn't do this with iOS 5. It is a real pain. Is there some way to change it back to the way it used to be on iOS 5?
    Thank you.

    I think that I did that.  I checked the arrow to point up on the numerical listing of the tracks.  When I "burn" the CD, it shows them being written in order, but when the entire thing is completed and I go to the actual CD, they are all out of order.

  • Password not accepted when trying to download upgrades via Software Update

    I haven't been able to download the latest versions of Safari, Quicktime, Java for Mac OS X 10.4, etc. because when I attempt to do so, my password isn't accepted in the verification dialog.
    I am 100% positive I'm using the correct password.
    What is causing this? How do I fix it?
    Replies appreciated.

    Hello, see if these help...
    Open Access in Utilities, use Keychain First Aid under the Window Menu item, then either check the Password under that item, change it, or delete it and start over.

  • Password not accepted when trying to download updates. Security question answer not recognized.

    I have been unable to update my software or downloads for many months now.  I try to log in, but it won't recognize my password.  When I answer the security question, it will not recognize that answer either.  Any suggestions?  Thanks!

    The best place to go for immediate support or when it's likely you'll need to discussion confidential information about your account is Live Chat at <http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html?product=muse&topic=using-my-product-or-service> and click on "I still need help…" and then "Chat now".
    If that's not an option for you, then please provide a bit more info. Where is the login failure occurring? Are you unable to login to http://creative.adobe.com? Are you able to login to the Creative Cloud desktop app? Is the failure only at the point Muse ask for login credentials at first launch?

  • Have Windows OEM Product Key -but key is not accepted when Installing New Windows 8.1 Disk

    I was able to secure the Product Key for what I thought was a Windows 8.1 OS on my Toshiba notebook.  I believe my notebook ORIGINALLY had an OEM version of 8.0 (was pre-loaded when I bought the notebook) but at some point I updated the OS to 8.1.  I
    was able to verify that I was currently using 8.1 via the Bios set-up utility.  After securing the product key, I contacted Microsoft and they agreed to send me 32 and 64 bit versions of Window 8.1 free of charge (so as long as I covered the shipping.)
    When I went to install the  8.1 disk, I received a message stating that the product key didn't work.  I can't help but wonder IF perhaps because my PC originally came with 8.0 that it's product key won't work with 8.1?  When Microsoft asked
    WHICH version I had on my PC, I had advised that I was using 8.1. They never asked what was the ORIGINAL OS?
    Any ideas?

    thanks for replies.  I suppose it would be helpful for me to explain why I needed the product key and the new Microsoft Windows 8.1 discs in the first place.  This was never a matter of merely trying to activate the OS.  Last week- my
    notebook went in to standby mode- a very normal process when I would step away from the notebook for a decent amount of time.  When I tried touched the power button to release it from stand by, I received a message that the OS was not able to start up
    due to TWO (very specific) files that were either missing or had been corrupted.  The message recommended re-installing the OS in order to re-insalll or otherwise correct the file errors.  I spent a good 3-4 hours researching this on a number of
    Microsoft/ IT sites, and it appeared this was a very common error -stemming from "boot disk error" -or "errors with hard drive/ partitions".  I then began my trek to a) locate the product key (of which I was able to secure from the BIOS) and b) have Microsoft
    send me the Windows 8.1 discs.  Hope this helps and thanks again.

  • Password not accepted to download garmin update

    Hi Ive just tried to download some garmin updates on my macbook pro and it asks for my password,the same password that I use for icloud.But.. it won't accept it??
    Any ideas pease.
    Thank you

    What updates are those?  Maps?   Garmin UK tell me they no longer support Snow Leopard (although Tom-Tom say they support Apple back as far as Leopard).   What is going on with these people.   Unless that is, your profile detail of 10.6.6 is out of date.   Do you mind confirming as I am sure potential Sat-Nav buyers in the UK would like to know.

  • Does anyone else's iphone not let them download new apps or update them?

    I can't update any apps or download any news ones. Some of my apps are starting to crash, safari, facebook etc. I haven't restored it yet, I will once I get everything backed up. I just want to know if anyone else is having this problem too

    Hmm alright then. my phone also stopped vibrating as well so i would miss calls and txts all the time. But recently everything has been working, i can download apps and update them and the vibrate came back. i have no idea what was up with my phone. it apparently has a mind of its own haha.

  • WRK54G - password not accepted when saving settings

    Hello,
    My WRK54G router is now presenting this problem: When I enter the ip address to access the web interface, I enter the user (admin) and the password for admin and I can log in without any problems.
    When I make any changes and click on [Save Settings], the page asks for the password for user 'admin' again, which has never happened before. I entered the password three times and I get an error page in read with the message "401 Authorization Required". I wouldn't like to have to reset my router, so I appreciate any help here.
    Thanks!!
    Will

    You dont need to enter any username, only enter the password as admin.
    In case you are not able to save changes and needs username & password, try this:-
     Open Internet Explorer - Go to tools -Internet Options - Security - Custom Level.
    Search for User Authentication and select Anonymous logon - Click Ok. Click Ok.
    Restart the browser and try again.

  • Admin Password not accepted when unlocking X509Anchors keychain

    Hi,
    Has anyone encountered this before that the X509Anchors Keychain installed from System/Library/Keychains do not see the Admin password as valid? The other keychains accept the Admin Password as valid except for X509Anchors.
    Any help or pointers on this question is highly appreciated.
    regards
    Gal

    This is an should be an easy fix. Go to System Preferances and choose users and groups. Click on the lock and type in the admin details. Then click on your account and change the password. Sorry if this doesn't work.

  • Password not accepted when trying to log off another user

    Sometimes I want to shut down while another user is logged in and it asks for admin password. I type in correct password and it says it is invald. Password works the rest of the time. Any suggestions?

    found this on the internet. I'm going to try it now.
    This might make more sense then the Apple Support Document.
    Insert Your Leopard DVD.
    Shutdown and restart holding down C
    pick your language
    from the menu go to Utilities
    Pick reset Password
    Pick your hard drive (mines Macintosh HD)
    From the users list select system Administrator
    Enter a password and renter it and select reset
    Quit password reset
    Then quit OS x installer
    Click the restart button
    When your system restarts go to system preferences
    Accounts and click the unlock button (the padlock in the bottom left hand corner)
    It will ask for user name and password
    For user name use the name Roots and the password you entered in the password reset.
    This should unlock all the greyed out menus.
    Check the Allow changes box to give you back Admin status.
    Restart your computer.
    This worked for me without another install. Hope it helps.

  • I have changed my apple I.D email, but when download new app my old email address appears. How can I change it to my current apple I.D?

    Tap on your account id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores and log out of your account and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' your account on the device.

  • Apple id password not accepted on icloud

    why is my apple id password not accepted when I try to login to iCloud? The same password worked when I tried to login to support to post this question!

    If Settings>iCloud is showing your old email address, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • I've just updated my iPad to iOS 7.02 and I'm not able now to download new apps nor update the version of the existing ones.

    Hi!
    I've just updated my iPad to iOS 7.02 and I'm not able now to download new apps nor update the version of the existing ones. All of them are "waiting"... for ever.Even, when trying to download a new app, a "dratf" icon appears on the ipad, not the app's own icon...
    I've tried to switch off and on the iPad, disconnect and reconnect the itunes id... and nothing works. Even deleting an app, to download it again, doesn't work. It even doesn't ask for my password!!! (Stays with the small square with a circle around, the one that gets "bolder" while downloading... but it doesn't get bolder now. Just stay...).
    Any suggestions? I wouldn't like to reset the iPad, since I've got data in some apps that I wouldn't like lo loose...
    By the way, I can not either delete some apps with thos "draft" icons... even when the alert that appears when trying to do that is shown and select "ok".
    Thank you in advance!
    Best Regards,
    Carlos.

    Hi,
    Thank you, Once_was_lost, but it doesn't work either. I tried it yesterday as an option (I think you're referring to the options of those apps in the settings app).
    The problems are still here... I've been able to update some apps using the PC itunes (connecting the app to it), but all the other apps are still "wating", and I have two new strange things:
    * I cannnot remove the apps that are downloading (at least those that are supposed to be downolading ) . But I could remove one from the PC... and now there is an "empty line" in the "to update apps list".
    * Stranger: though I cannot download new apps or music from the store, I can do in-app purchases!!! In that case, I'm asked for the password and the item downloads. How is it possible?????
    I can download with the same user in the PC, in the iPhone... but not in the iPad .
    I'm getting mad...
