Security Code on iPhone
Every time I make a purchase on the iPhone, it asks me for my security code instead of just the iTunes password. Is this normal?
I'll assume you are referring to the code on the back of the credit card. If so, try logging into your iTunes account on the computer and updating your account profile. They sync to the phone and that should update the info in the phone and save it.

Invalid security code for iphone 4
I'm not sure if I am posting in the correct area of this page but oh well. I recently received a iphone 4 from my husband. And after having the phone for one week, I could not download any apps to my phone because of billing info or invalid security code. Here's what worked for me. If you do not have any money on the card, it will continue to display invalid security code. Hope this helps. Good luck!!!
I'm having the same issue. But why the **** is it all of a sudden requiring a legitimate credit card just to download FREE apps? Or even UPDATE free apps??

Can I shut down a code blocked iphone ?
Hi guys,
iPhone 4s 32Gb
iOS 7.1.2
I'm wondering if this is a sowtware bug or not.
I'm using a security code for iPhone block.
When the phone is blocked, after for example 60 seconds of non usage, I've seen I can shut down the phone.
This is a BIG problem when, for example I loose my iPhone, or someone stole it.
Using iCloud, I can set iPhone in lost mode, but if someone find it and shut down it (since he can do it even if the iPhone is blocked),
well, if someone shout down the phone, I will never find it again !...
what do you think about it !?
thanks.

I got a new iphone 4 3 days ago. YAY! Got it all set up, downloaded some apps etc, and it kept crashing.
I took it back into the store and they replaced it. Today however, I tried to download some apps, and it keeps prompting me to log into my apple id. When I do, I enter my password etc... then I get to the part for payment, and using the same credit card I used for the first phone i input the exact info that worked for the first phone. It keeps telling me "SECURITY CODE IS INVALID" but I KNOW I am entering this number correctly.
Are you only allowed to use a credit card once? Has my second phone crashed? What gives?
Thank you for any help... I am new at this and not so good...Launch iTunes. From the menu bar click Store / View My Account
Click: Edit Payment Information
Make sure you have the correct Security Code.
Then click: Done
And try resetting your Apple ID password. https://iforgot.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/DSiForgot.woa/wa -

I just got an iPhone 4s, and I can not connect it with my iTunes from my previous account. I have already tried making another account, however it says that I have the wrong security code even though this is not true. What should I do?
Contact iTunes support. There's a link to it on the bottom of every page in the iTunes store.

New iphone 5, Invalid Security Code - frustration !
I have been buying itunes apps and music for close to 9 years with my visa card. Today, after getting a new iphone 5 last week I bought my first game. That is, I tried to and entered a nightmare. I get a warning for invalid security code, and when I want to give an answer to my security questions it won't let me. I called apple support, and I can't find a way to enter a new credit card or any card. I used to pay with paypal connected to my bankaccount. Now all of a sudden it tells me that iphone 5 does not support paypal anymore.
I can not find how to change my security code questions, nor can apple support. They can't get into my account because the security code on the back of my card is not matched. Tried with several different cards (which I don't really want to do - I want to continue to pay itunes stuff with paypal like I have done for the last 9 years).
The apple rep will call me back next week, so for now I can not buy any app nor music on my phone... I can work around it and buy via itunes, but that is not what I want. I want to buy stuff wherever I am, that is why I got an iphone after all, to use wifi and be able to buy stuff on the move.
It looks like there is a giant bug in IO6 that has to do with paypal, credit cards or debit cards. I do have enough money in my account...
I do not understand why all of a sudden I need to give in security answers to questions that I never saw before and therefore also don't know what answers to give. The answers I give are the truth but they come back as wrong.
My visa card comes back with an unmatchable security code on the back with the card number on the front.
What is going on with visa cards and apple IOS6????
Also, as long as the apple rep can not pair the card, there is no way to change the security questions, and as I can not give the right answers to the security questions they can not get into my account to change a thing.
If they can not verify that I am the person who I say I am they can't do a thing...
Before last week and the arrival of my new iphone 5 I never had problems like that.
What is going on???????Do you have a balance owed?
Try setting the payment option to None, save it then enter a good CC number. -

Regarding the security code to connect my iPhone to iTunes.
Is there any way to use the computer to do the security code? My iPhone is destroyed and I need to do the security code to be able to take a backup of it. Please help me!
people repairing iphones aren't able to do it. if you've made a backup in itunes prior to right now, you can restore from that backup even if you've got a passcode lock on the device by putting it into DFU mode. However, you're saying that you're trying to back up your device which can only be done if the phone isn't locked with a passcode. If there were a way around this, people could steal other people's phones with passcode locks on them, plug said stolen phone into a computer, bypass the lock, then make a backup of someone else's information. This simply cannot be done for security reasons

Hello babichanjacob
Change how it syncs by enabling Manually manage music and videos, then you can drag and drop the music that you want on your iPhone. Revert it back to test to see if that resolves the issue.

iphone 4 32 gb
version 7.1.2 (11D257)
when i open the account itones store asks a security code. I purchased this device from another person. i dont know the security code to fill in the format.The security code is the Apple ID of the person who setup the account. You will need to have the person you purchased the iPhone from remove their information from the iPhone.

I'm trying to make a payment on my iPhone to AppStore but it keeps asking me for my security code from my card and now it just tells me to come here for support
The "backup password" refers to a password you created when you elected to encrypt your iPhone's backup. If you cannot remember the encryption password, you will not be able to access the backup.
