Payment info for app gratis

Why I must send payment information (credit card number) if the app is free (gratis)?

The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
Because you are using an existing Apple ID to "buy" the app. You can create a new Apple ID to use with free apps by following these Apple instructions. You will then have two separate Apple IDs.

  • Why my payment info. is asked in App Store even I want to download a free app. Is it mandatory now to update the payment info in App Store in ios 8?

    Why I am asked to update my payment info while downloading a FREE APP from App Store? I noticed this change after updating to iOS 8.

    If you are within 14 days of purchase you can still return the iPhone and get the phone that suits your needs, however, I think you will find that no matter which phone you get the content provider will want to know how you are going to pay for future purchases. For Android phones it is Google, and they will certainly want to know.

  • Need to change payment info for student CC membership, but it says I have a "free" membership when I go to change it?

    I recently changed my card info, and need to change it on my Creative Cloud membership. When I go to Manage Account, it tells me I have a free membership. I don't understand why, as the Adobe Applications Manager tells me I have 4 days left to update my payment info, and all of my CC apps are still working. What can I do to resolve this problem? Should I just pay for a new membership, or will that cause conflict with my account? (I have a student membership, by the way!)

    Does your Cloud subscription show on your account page?

  • ITunes is asking for payment info for a child's AppleID

    All iPads have been updated to OS8. Desktop is waiting for Yosemite. My child (age10) has had an Apple ID for many years with a false birthday. I am trying to get Family Share to work correctly and turn on Ask to Buy.  My child is the only member of my Family Share
    After browsing support posts, I retroactively changed the date to the youngest possible (age 13) as many other parents have done.  Before the Family Share existed, I used to split the AppleID on my child's iPad so that I could share content. Many years ago, when I set up my child's personal AppleID, I set up her iPad with iCloud using her AppleID, and iTunes using mine so that purchases had to be approved and my AppleID could maintain all the kid-friendly content I'd been purchasing for years.  When I first set up family sharing, I forgot that iTunes will was using my Apple ID, so when I tried to turn on "Ask to Buy" I got a message saying 
    "Cannot Enable Ask to Buy"
    Adin is sharing purchases from an
    account also used by another family
    member. Ask to Buy can be enabled
    only on accounts that are not shared.
    So I logged out of iTunes on my child's iPad and used her AppleID instead. But then iTunes wanted credit card info for purchases, so obviously iTunes does not recognize that she is a child in my Family Share plan. I can't troubleshoot the problem on my Mac because Yosemite isn't available yet. I opted to leave my child's AppleID logged into iTunes, on her iPad, without payment info. I still get the same message when I try to turn on Ask to Buy for my child from my iPad.
    HELP!

    Run System Profiler.  Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then "About This Mac", then "More Info..."
    Check under both Applications and Frameworks for Quicktime.  Applications are the actual Player application itself.  I believe Frameworks is the underlying system software support.  If you see something different there it might be that about which iTunes is complaining.  On my computer both say the same, but I'm not having the issue.
    I'm guessing here but if you re-installed the system using Archive and Install,  your applications were left intact and that's why your Player is 7.7, but all your system software (includingQT framework) was replaced with earlier versions which may be why the you're seeing different versions.  iTunes doesn't need the Player, but it does need the underlying QT software.

  • Why app store is asking to vertify payment info for free products?

    Why app store is asking to vertify payment method even for free products? And after that I still can not download any free products from the store.

    Verifying payment method validates your Apple ID.  You need to do this even if the charge is zero.  Can't get around it.

  • Payment Info for iTunes store - technical difficulties? tried multiple time

    Hi all,
    I'm kind of new to these forums but I have a problem...
    I have been trying to activate an iTunes store account for a while and I have my email and password and everything set up but when I try and "review payment information" (which a dialog box tells me to do every time I sign in), I agree to the terms, I enter everything - address, phone, card information, all that, and I keep getting a red error message at the top of the screen saying "We are sorry, the iTunes store is experiencing technical difficulties at this time. Please try again later." Or something of that sort. It is getting really annoying and I'm getting really frustrated because all I want to do is activate my account!!! It seems like every time I try and sign up for something with Apple, they are always "experiencing technical difficulties" or I am told "try again later". It gets really old really fast.
    Has anyone had this problem? Better yet fixed it? Maybe its my ISP?
    Anyone who is willing to help me out with the iTunes issue would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!
    Alex

    You are not alone!
    I've had an account for a long time but for the past few days I've been unable to buy anything because I find myself stuck in a loop. Every single time I try to make a purchase I have to click a Billing info button and then check my payment details which haven't changed and worked fine before. I've tried removing my payment details and re-entering them but now I'm presented with a message that payment processing is not available, please try again later.
    It seems the store is having problems and for me it was fine before the iPhone, App Store and MobileMe launches so I'm guessing there's a connection.
    Best thing to do is contact iTunes Support which have always been helpful for me on the few times I've had to contact them.

  • How do I change credit card info for apps?  It thinks I want to pay with paypal and I need to put in credit card info.

    I have a new iPhone 6 and want to buy apps.  When I click on "buy" some say they don't take PayPal and that I need to change my payment information.  ITunes seems to accept PayPal, but not the apps store.  Well, some do, some don't.  I still need to put in the info but cannot find how to do it.  Help please!

  • Credit card/payment confirmation for app updation

    Why is it compulsory to have a credit card information for application download/updation. It is not possible for every MAC user to own a credit. Its also weird that it doesnt accept my debit card details.
    If Apple guys are listening, its NOT FAIR!

    Its also weird that it doesnt accept my debit card details.
    Try this support article > iTunes Store: My credit card's security code or zip code does not match my bank's records
    And keep in mind your credit or debit card credentials must be associated with the same country where you reside.
    Why is it compulsory to have a credit card information for application download/updation.
    It's not. Click Account right side of the App Store window under Quick Links then sign in. Click Edit to the right of Payment Type.
    Select None
    Make sure your name and billing address correct then click Done.
    An alternative would be to purchase iTunes Gift cards which can be redeemed at the iTunes or Mac App Store >  Choose your iTunes Gift Card - Apple Store

  • Cant update payment info for Photoshop CC

    I have a subscription to Photoshop CC Photography Program. Recently changed my Credit card after the ADobe Security Fiasco and now I get an error message each time I load up Photoshop CC telling me my subscription is about to expire in XX Days. Now currently down to 3 days.
    I have updated my card details and it seems the site forgets the new details and defaults back to the old ones.  I have tried different browsers and still no joy.
    The online chat service is next to useless as the whole process takes ages and they dont have a solution.
    Im based in the UK so can anyone help please?
    I use Photoshop for work so if it ceases working while I try to sort this out Ill have to claim compensation from Adobe as its their fault the issue occurred in the first place!
    I also gather from other posts that I'm not the only person with the same problem.
    Come on Adobe, sort yourselves out!

    Not sure if this helps .. but it appears that whenever Adobe's payment processing backend has some internal issues, it puts the subscribers into some  HELL. The only way I found it to be working is - call the customer support from your country, and speak to a CSE.
    The same incident happened to me this month. Subscription failed warnings, and Email alerts. I logged into my account, but could not update credit card details. When I tried adding another card, it throwed errors. So I called the local Adobe Customer support, and gone through the painful IVR thing. But at the end I was able to reach a CSE and he helped in fixing the issue.
    The Solution:
    Call Adobe Customer Support.
    For your country specific support numbers check this page:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/customer-alert-2.html
    PS : It is pathetic that Adobe's payment processing is not upto the quality, and recent breaches has made the life of subscribers bad. I really love those old Retail boxes. I never had any billing issues.

  • Can't update payment info for CC

    My Credit Card expiration date needs to be updated ASAP!  It will be rejected on Mon. Aug 5th when Adobe tries to bill it again. 
    Each time I log in to "Manage Your Account"  at https://creative.adobe.com/account/plans  I get the dreaded Error Message, "We're sorry, something seems to be wrong on our end. Please try again later." 
    It's been like this for a long time. What should I do?

    I'm having the same problem with no luck.

Trying to update the credit card information to see if the recurring payment resume with no luck at all and receiving the same message

  • How do we verify payment info for iTunes movies from our computer

    we have tried numerous times to verify.
    Nowhere is there a verify button to be found
    when we try to rent a movie we keep getting the verify on your computer request for our billing info?
    we have been renting movies forever and did so just six days ago now we get this vierify request that seems impossible to get rid of.
    any suggestions besides going to acoount on iTunes store and reloading all billing and shipping info as we have done that ten times already

    iTunes does not have provision for automatically storing one kind of media on a separate drive, so you have some basic decisions to make first.  Do you want these movies to still appear in your iTunes library, or are you content with browsing filenames on a drive in Finder when you want to look for one?  The second's the easiest thing because then you don't have to have an external drive permanently turned on and attached to your computer (wired or wireless).  To do that you literelly only need to drag your movies folder to an archive drive and delete movies from iTunes.  To watch them again you can add it back to iTunes while holding down the option key so the movie is used from its location on the external drive.
    There's ways to move the movies to an external drive while keeping them in iTunes but the external drive iwll always have to be turned on and connected to the computer or you will see a bunch of broken link exclamation marks.
    Realize what you are talking about is not "backup".  Backup (which you should do) is putting a second or more copy of items on external drives for the day when your internal drive fails and everything on it is lost, inclduing all your home photos and perhaps things that have been pulled from the iTunes Store and can no longer be re-downloaded.
