Paypal authorized or not?

I recently put in an order online for a desktop computer and proceded to check out with Paypal. There was an error and the website stated that it "failed to authorize payment". However, I recieved a confirmation email from PayPal stating that the payment was pending and also included a Best Buy order number. The order does not seem to exist on the Best Buy website and just a few minutes ago I was notified that the desktop I 'purchased' has been sold out. I would like to know if the order does exist and if not, assistance in removing the substantial payment for a non-existant computer.

Hi there fosler53,
Ordering a new computer is always exciting! While I dread my MacBook Pro seeing its final days (hopefully in the not-so-near future), I’m sure I’ll enjoy picking out a new device. I’m sorry to hear that you may have had trouble placing an order for a desktop computer utilizing your PayPal account. Unfortunately, I was unable to locate an order using the email address you registered with the forum.
That being said, typically we authorize funds to ensure the funds are available, but do not actually collect them until the order ships. As it seems your order may not have processed through our systems, the authorization should be dropped in 3-5 business days depending on your financial institution, which will in turn return the funds to you. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you.
If you utilized a different email address than the one you registered with the forum, please feel welcome to provide the correct email address to me via private message, which you may do via the link below in my signature.
Please let me know if you should have any other concerns or inquiries! Also, please feel welcome to review our Conditions of Use page on BestBuy.com!
Respectfully,

    How to refund to a buyer when paypal details does not show a refund link?

    Yeah, I understand, there is so much more to communication than words on paper.Folks interpret written words according to a whole lot of complicated emotions and feelings. We then project that onto the author and decide why we think they formed that particular combination of words.It is certainly far from perfect.What is missing is volume, intonation, body language, facial expressions, etc. Emoticons are a very big help.I am sorry that you interpreted my tone as abrupt. It was certainly not meant to be. I apologize if I have offended you in any way.I admit my lack of pc. I just did not see this as a social atmosphere, which it  really can be.I was just asking for information. I will try to do better in the future.

  • Using Hyper-V 2012 r2, connecting to the console results in: A certification authority could not be contacted for authentication.

    I'm having some trouble with authentication to guests from my Hyper-V console.
    If I try to connect from the Hyper-V Manager to the console of any guest, I get the error:
    "A certification authority could not be contacted for authentication. If you are using a Remote Desktop Gateway with a smart card, try connecting to the remote computer using a password. For assistance, contact your system administrator or technical support."
    I'm not using an RDG and smart card.
    I have 2 virtual networks. The first is Production, the second is Isolated. Production has 2 NICs attached to the Production LAN, the second has 2 NICs in our DMZ. The host is a member server of the production domain. I can use MSTSC from the LAN or the DMZ
    to gain access to each Guest and the Host.
    The issues start if I try "Connect" from Hyper-V Manager in an attempt to use the console of any Guest. Each attempt fails with the above error. If I use an incorrect password, I get a different error: "The credentials that were used to connect
    to {Server FQDN} did not work. Please enter new credentials."
    Taking a look at the the event logs, I can see the session successfully authenticating to the Guest (4776 Credential validation and 4624 Logon), and the fact I get a different error if I enter an incorrect password show I get some way along the line. However
    if I take a look at the logs on the Host, however I get:
    An account failed to log on.

        The authentication information fields provide detailed information about this specific logon request.
            - Transited services indicate which intermediate services have participated in this logon request.
            - Package name indicates which sub-protocol was used among the NTLM protocols.
            - Key length indicates the length of the generated session key. This will be 0 if no session key was requested.
    Which looks to me like a blank authentication request is being sent? (I've not deleted any machine/domain names, they're just not present)
    Any suggestions? Do you think I'm barking up the wrong tree?
    Thoughts and comments gratefully received

  • IBooks Author does not open existing ibook

    I updated iBooks Author yesterday and saved an existing ibook on my Mac and USB drive. Today morning, the book is refusing to open, displaying a "invalid format" message. The file also apprears to have shrunk in size, from 250mb to 8kb.
    Any idea of what happened and how I can resolve this? Or would I have to re-do the whole thing?

    I found the answer here. I guess I just didn't dig long enough!
    The short answer is that iBooks Author does not output a format that supports iPhone. Use Pages to generate an ePub file that supports iPhone, etc.

  • PayPal account could not be verified

    I'm trying to set up payment processings. When I put in my e-mail address and click Register account I get a message saying " The PayPal account could not be verified. I know it's the correct e-mail address and I have used it to collect payments on other sites. Any idea what the problem is?

    Hi,
    I checked our server log. It appears that at the time when you clicked the Register Account button, your FormsCentral sign-on cookie had been expired, therefore our server rejected the Register Account request.
    Please log out from FormsCentral and log in again, then open your form and try to register your PayPal account again. Please let me know if this does not work to you.

  • Authorized or not?

    I was using iTunes on two computers--one Mac laptop, one PC.
    I recently transferred all my files, including my iTunes library, to a new MacBook Pro.
    When I first tried to play iTunes-purchased songs on the new Mac, I received a message telling me I had reached my five-computer limit. (Apparently, each upgrade of the operating system to my previous Mac counted as a new computer.)
    I deauthorized the older Mac and authorized the new one.
    That's where it gets interesting.
    When I completed the authorization process on the new MacBook, I got a message telling me I now had one authorized computer. But when I try to play a protected song, the box telling me I have to authorize it pops up. When I try to do so, I get another message telling me I've reached the five-computer limit.
    Same computer, two different messages.
    I'm guessing I should wipe the slate clean with a "deauthorize all." But since that's a once-a-year option, I want to be sure.
    Any suggestions?

    *My Problem:*
    An error message appeared that said I had 5 of 5 computers activated. Therefore, I couldn't listen to my purchased music, even though I really only have one computer authorized. (Note: each reformat=1 authorization)
    Solution:
    _DE-AUTHORIZE 5 COMPUTERS_
    The link below explains how to de-authorize all your machines.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93014
    In my own words.
    This is where i found the answer. Basically open up itunes, Click on the store tab on the left, sign in. On the top pull down window, go to "store", then "view my account". If it asks you to type in your password, do so. Then click the view account button. You can de-authorize all 5 of your computers from here. Then once you de-authorize everything, goto the top pull down menu "store", then click on "authorize computer", then u should be g2g.

  • Does apple online store accept paypal? If not, where else could I purchase an iPad using paypal in Canada?

    I bought an iPad 32 gb black wifi, but did not like the colour and sold it on ebay. I returned to the place where I bought it, 2 and a half weeks later (futureshop), and they said their all sold-out, so I called another authorized apple reseller (London Drugs) if they have any available, they said they do not have and if I would to like to be in their 15 page waiting list. So I thought, I'd just order in the online store since the shipping time has move down to just 1-2 weeks. But the problem is I do not own a credit card and I only own a paypal account. I still have the money that I got from selling my iPad and I'd like to use it. Does the apple canada online store accept paypal or debit card? if not, is there any other online store that accepts paypal and/or debit card in Canada? and how much does it cost to ship it? I live in Saskatchewan, Canada. Thanks for any help

    Can you buy one (or more) of those prepaid VISA debit cards?

  • Certificate Authority is not being seen by windows server 2003 machines

    Good Afternoon,
    We recently installed a certificate authority using windows server 2008 r2. There was an old certificate authority that had went bad and the role could not be uninstalled on the bad server. The new certificate authority works with windows 2008 machines but
    does not work with server 2003 machines. Mainly trying to get the domain controller certificate. At first it was stating that the rpc was unavailable for the CA. I tried to delete the remnants under the sites and services role of the old server. The error
    now it states that it can not find a certificate authority. As stated above the newer machines (Server 2008)  can see the certificate authority and request certificates but older machines cant. Any assistance on what to do next will be greatly appreciated.
    Attached is the error I receive when trying to request a certificate through the CA mmc.
    dmg

    It is possible to change the hash algorithm a CA uses  to support XP and 2003 "out of the box" without the hotfix.
    But it would be better to have two CAs in parallel - one using a more modern algorithm and a CA supporting a "legacy" algorithm - and the latter should only be used as long as there are clients that aren't able to validate the other algorithms.
    On the CA, start regedit and locate the following registry key:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\CertSvc\Configuration\<Your CA>\CSP
    I am assuming that the Software CNG provider is used with SHA256 or higher (not with SHA1).
    Change CNGHashAlgorithm to SHA1 and restart the CA service.
    The setting can be reverted by changing the value back. All certificates and all CRLs signed by this CA will use the new hash algorithm after the restart.

  • Sharing itunes purchases between two authorized computers not working

    hello,
    i currently own two apple laptops and want to be able to play my music that i purchased on one, on the other, as well. i have followed the instructions in other posts that tell me to 1, authorize the new computer, which i have done, and 2, if that works to go into a folder on my drive and delete it out to start fresh, which i have done, as well. however, when i click on the purchased songs, it is still telling me i need to authorize my computer. the computer, as i said, is already authorized.
    can anyone help with this?

    I'm not sure I understand your second step. Couldn't you use the Home Sharing feature in iTunes 9 to accomplish this, as long as it's enabled for each? Both computers should be authorized with the same iTunes Store account, as you've done.

  • Itunes is telling me my computer is not authorized and not accepting apple ID

    Recently, I've had problems with itunes popping up a message saying that the song I am trying to play (on my mac) is not accessible because this computer is not authorized.  Then, the apple id that pops up has a misspelling in it and entering the correct password and correction to the misspelling, it still does not work.  Then, I tried deauthorizing the entire computer and reauthorizing it.  Says it is authorized, however, still no access to that song.  Oddly, the help menu that pops up tells you about deauthorizing/authorizing and such, but if you click on any other area of the help menu it is "not currently available".  Makes me suspicious that I have some malware thing.  Paranoid?  Can anyone help?

    Sorry, I don't have a response. I just wanted to say that I have the exact same problem. It started about a week ago and a number of songs that I've purchased have been deleted from my ipod when I sync.
    It's very frustrating.

  • My Ibooks author will not open a file

    I have an Ibooks author file that will not open.  How can I open the file to edit it?

    In that case, if the file isn't locked and/or owned by another user, and you don't see any errors when trying to access it, all I can imagine is that it is somehow broken/corrupted.
    If you don't have a backup to try instead, you may want to contact Apple for iBA support and see if they can help....that, or walk your MB into the nearest Apple Store and see what they think.
    Good luck in any case.
