"sign in required, tap continue and sign in"

What is this? I have never seen this before in 15 months. Is this malware?
It does not say WHAT app is requesting my Apple password. BAD DESIGN APPLE, if this is you.
If I click Cancel, nothing seems to be wrong. iCloud still works fine.

Huh?
I still don't know that this "sign in required" is for, it does not say. In spite of the curious post by gdgmacguy, I still need to know.
Can anyone help?

Im trying to update my apps and it wont let me. When i clicked on an app to update it or to download a free app it says "sign in required, tap continue and sign in to view your billing information" when i did it says "you must verify your payment info before you can makes purchases" then "security code is invalid" when the security code is valid. I even switched credit card it keeps saying the same thing....... THIS IS NOT FAIR........ I WANNA UPDATE MY APPS!!!!! Btw idk why did i buy the ipad for, APPLE dont even let you download ADOBE FLASH PLAYER and must of the games required ADOBE FLASH PLAYER to play example: wizard101. Idk what i was thinking...... :(

Why not simply remove yoru payment info by selecting None at top?
APPLE dont even let you download ADOBE FLASH PLAYER
Considering Adobe dont (sic) even make Flash Player for iPads, this seems about right. How can you download something that does not exist?

Hi All,
I have implemented Auto Renewable App purchasases in my application, everything is working fine.
We are testing the app throughly and for each and every condition possible(network down,hundreads of sandbox users etc).
While testing the things many times we are stopping the transaction in beteween but after some time we were restoring the same transaction and it works after that.So far so good.
Now on many ipads we are getting the message popup saying "sign in required Tap Continue and sign in to check for downloads".
I dont know what this means because i have already purchased the product in sandbox and evrything works great but many times this poup is irritating us so please lt us know the solution for same.
Please let me know how to get rid of this error asap.Because of this error only Our QA's are not releasing the app.
Please help me out to solve this asap.

Same here, this is an irritating issue. I am getting this with non-renewing subscriptions.

"sign-in required, click continue and sign in to check for downloads".

On trying to access the ITunes store or ITunes in general, I keep getting a pop-up window stating "sign-in required, click continue and sign in to check for downloads". Itunes then doesn't recognise the sign in attempt and the pop-up appears again. Has anyone seen this and have any thoughts or advice?

"Tap Continue and sign in to purchase a gift"?!?

hi all, since yesterday i keep seeing an occasional pop-up message on my iphone telling me to "tap continue and sign in to purchase a gift". Very confusing, as I haven't done anything to initiate any sort of gift transaction. i've tried searching for that exact piece of text but there are no results to be found anywhere.
any ideas?

No. There is nobody here who works for Apple, the forum us strictly user-to-user.
I wouldn't say it's "strictly user-to-user". As terms & conditions states:
Apple involvement. Apple does not formally provide technical support on the Site. However, any information that is provided by Apple or Apple employees is offered on an "AS IS" basis without warranties of any kind.
Thanks for the suggestion. Although, the problem is not really to get rid of the message (as you can dismiss it quite easily) but to understand why it appears there in the first place. Is it a malware? is it a bug?
So thanks for that. Although as you mentioned, it wasn't very enlightening.
(The 2000 views were probably a couple of years ago. Look at the dates on the posts.)
I did. Half the people who posted had this issue in 2011, and the other half (including me) posted in the last couple of months. So it might be a recurring thing.
I have no idea when 2000 users googled "Tap Continue and sign in to purchase a gift" and viewed this post. Could have been 2 years ago or in the last couple of months.

TS1702 ea game codes opo-up when redeeming "Before you can make purchases, you must tap Continue to sign in, then verify your payment info"

Hi there,
Not an urgent question, however I would like some help.
EA Games ran a great promotion over the holidays that offered free iphone/ipod and ipad games. I won a few but have not been able to access the games due a weird bug. Everytime I attempt to redeem the code on my iphone in the app store or via Itunes app a pop-up appears "before you can make purchases, you must tap Continue to sign in, then verify your payment info." I'd happily click the continue button if there was one. But there isn't. I click on for the pop-up to move on and I'm back at the screen that asks me to redeem. Which I do and the pop-up returns. I'm fully logged in my payment method works for other app purchases or updates but not these EA codes. Very odd.

HT201209 When I press redeem it asks me to sign in and then enter my iTunes card code. After entering in my iTunes card code it then asks me three times for my password. Right after it says: Error press continue and sign in to redeem code. Please help me

why is it whenever I sign in and put in my code it asks me three times for my password and then says: "Error press continue and sign in to redeem code." I really need help because I have three fifteen dollar cards that I want to put on! I had four but then for some reason the first one worked after a long time of trying but the other ones didn't. I have the latest version and all my stuff is updated.

You might have mentioned that. Your next step would be to contact iTunes Support:

Tap continue and sing in for billing information

I dont know why it keep saying tap continue and sing in for billing information and it wont let me download

Is there any error message you get when trying to sign in and provide the billing information?
Also try to:
1. Go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Tap on Apple ID and Sign out
2. Restart the device
3. Go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Sign in again

"you must first sign in to iTunes Connect and sign the relevant contracts": how?

I'm trying to get my iBook (made in iBooks Author) up on the iTunes store and am stuck.
I now have an iTunes Connect account into which I can sign in. When I try to use iTunes producer, and enter my login info (which works on the browser), it tells me
"There is a problem with your login information. To use this application, you must first sign in to iTunes Connect and sign the relevant contracts."
I'm not sure what a "relevant contract" would be. I look at "Contracts, Tax, and Banking" at iTunes Connect, and there is one entry with Contract Type "Book". However, I can't request it (that is grayed out), and the "Legal Entity" pull down does not show me (as found in the "Manage Users"), but only shows "select".
I therefore can't seem to find a way to do anything to allow me to login with my book via Producer to get it "produced."
Does anyone know what is going on?
The FAQ is a blank page, the "Contact us with questions" asks you to pull down a topic and has no topics there! Very clumsy path to publishing (comparing to CreateSpace, for example). After the ease of iBooks Author it's like hitting a brick wall at 100 mph.

OK, I saw the link for the help video at the bottom - it helped. I have to add a new entity. I was fooled thinking I would already be there and that the entry was me, but it is apparently a general placeholder into which numerous entities can go. For me this was not obvious at all, and I only figured that out by watching the video (which was not easy to spot!).
I'll go through the process now and hopefully no more confusions.

Sounds like the credit card you have on file is probably invalid/expired. You'd need to correct that or set the payment method to None.

I tried doing that and I got a similar issue with mine too. Only worse. I have a $20 credit on my account. iTunes claims I owe them over $100 to them as well.

Help required on Encryption and Signing.

Hello All,
Client:
Client is having his own Private key and the public key of the Server.
Server:
Server is having his own Private key and the public keys of all the clients.
When a client wants to send a document to the server with both encryption and signed,
then he will encrypt the document with the server's public key and then sign the encrypted document
with his own Private key.
And then sends it to the server.
When the server receives the signed object from the client, he has to verify the signature with
the public key of the client and he has to decrypt the document with the Pirvate key of the server.
How can we verify the signature?
By just saying,
Signature sig = Signature.getInstance("SHA1withRSA");
sig.initVerify(kp.getPublic());
boolean verifies = sig.verify(realSig);
where "realSig" is the signed object.
In this case i am unable to verify the signature. Even if i succeeded here in verifying the signature,
how do i decrypt the signed object.
My question is,
When the client sends signed object to server, does he sends anything else along with it?
Say for example if he sends the encrypted document along with the signed object then if i say,
Signature sig = Signature.getInstance("SHA1withRSA");
sig.initVerify(kp.getPublic());
sig.update(cipherText);
boolean verifies = sig.verify(realSig);
where "cipherText" is the encrypted document.
In this case i am able to verify the document and since i will have the encrypted document
along with the signed object i will decrypt this using the Private key of the server.
So is it must and should that i need to send the encrypted document everytime along with the signed object to the server.
Thanks and have a nice time.

I have two suggestions for you
First read a good book about cryptography. Even using secure cryptographic algorithms is no guarantee that your solution is secure. Without thorough understanding of cryptography and security someone might break in due to some implementation mistake in your security mechanism. My recommendations: "Applied Cryptography" written by Bruce Schneier and "An Introduction to Cryptography (IntrotoCrypto.pdf)" by Phil Zimmermann, Network Associates. This PDF document can be downloaded as part of the free PGP product from http://www.pgp.com, http://www.pgpi.com or http://www.nai.com
Second take a serious look at S/MIME. S/MIME allows information to be wrapped in signed and/or encrypted data blocks in a secure way. The S/MIME standard is around for a few years and has been thoroughly reviewed. Bouncycastle (www.bouncycastle.org) contains an library for creating and handling S/MIME data. Never invent your own formats when a standard is available. More information about S/MIME can be found at RSA labs (www.rsa.com or www.rsalabs.com).

Sign In Required message when buying song on iPod?

I wanted to buy a song on my iPod via iTunes, as I have done many, many times before. But it won't let me; every time I tap the price to buy it, it prompts me to sign in as usual, which I do; and then it gives me this message:
"Sign-in required: Tap continue and sign in to view billing information."
Even though I just signed in. There is not a continue button, there is only an OK button, which, if I tap it, just takes me back to the iTunes search results. All my billing information is correct, nothing has changed since I last bought a song on my iPod, and I also have about $20 of iTunes gift card balance in my account, so there should not be any billing issues. And I just bought a song on it 4-5 days ago with no problem, and I really haven't used it much this week so nothing should have changed.
Anybody have an idea of what is going on?!?

Hmm... and you don't have this issue when trying to purchase the song on your computer correct?
Maybe try resetting all of your iPod's Settings. To do this head to *Settings -> General -> Reset* and tap *Reset all Settings*. From there, if still no luck, it might be a good idea to go and restore your iPod via iTunes.
