Store will not allow purchases.  Recognizes ID but keeps asking for password.

I cannot access my ID account through the I-tunes store. Nor can I purchase anything.
The last thing I purchased was, "matching." That product seems to also be having an error that asks me to sign out and back into my apple ID.  The error message pops up if I try to link my computer to "matching."

Maybe you should reset your password.

  • My Contacts app for macbook pro will not connect with my yahoo and keeps asking for password.

    My Contacts app for macbook pro will not connect with my yahoo account and repeatedly asks for yahoo password, any soliutions to this?

    This is due to a change in Yahoo's security settings. You need to go into your Yahoo account settings and create a special App Password, then use that password in Contacts to access your account. Same goes for Calendar.

  • Iphone won't download from itunes (purchases or updates) and keeps asking for password

    My new Iphone 6 won't download from itunes, whether it is a new purchase, previous purchase or update.  Itunes keeps asking for password.  Icloud seems to be working, find my phone works, so what do I do?  I've signed out and back in to the app store.   Restarted my phone.  Ugh!!

  • HT4103 Terminal will not accept typing or pasting after it asks for password.

    After enterin sudo command, terminal asks for password. After that it will not accept typing in password, I type and nothing appears. If I try to paste in password nothing happens.

    The password is never echoed (Displayed) into the teminal window. So after you type the password in hit the enter key or just let it work for the command you entered. When it is finished doing what you ask it to do with whatever command you typed in the normal prompt will return.

  • Mac App store will not allow me to sign in...I have done all the updates on my Mac???

    Mac App store will not allow me to sign in so I can't purchase or update app's...it has worked before?  I have done all updates for Mac...

    Do you not see the sign in sheet?
    Mac App Store: Sign in sheet does not appear, or does not accept typed text
    And if you have anti virus software installed, disable that before trying to access the App Store.
    If you have Litlte Snich installed, that can prevent access to the App Store.
    Keep in mind, you can't update your existing apps from another Apple ID if you create a new account.

  • After install of Mountain Lion I have no facetime. It is nowhere in hd and ap store will not allow download. Will I need to re-instal ML in order to get it back??

    After install of Mountain Lion I have no facetime. It is nowhere in hd and ap store will not allow download.
    Will I need to re-instal ML in order to get it back?

    Where are you, geographically?
    I might suggest:
    Give this a try:
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Lion/Mountain Lion
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    After this is completed download and install 10.8.4 Mountain Lion Update v10.8.4 (Combo).
    If this doesn't work, then reinstall Mountain Lion:
    Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • Mountain Lion purchased from Mac store will not download. 'Downloading' simply stays greyed out for hours.  Nothing I do changes it.  I am running OS 10.6.8 on a 2010 Mac Mini.  What do I do now?

    If you are looking at the front page of the App Store and you are seeing the "downloading" message on the right under Quick Links.
    Try this... Go into the "Purchases" section in the top bar of the App Store find ML in the list you are presented with. Does it say Resume? If so click the button and it will change to Pause. You may have paused it previously and forgot.
    If not then do as Csound1 suggested and simply wait for it to finish

  • Photos will not allow me to set the key picture for the album or event

    Photos will not allow me to set the key picture for the album or event - it is set to grey !
    Anyone else had this and found why ?
    new PHOTO app replacing iPhoto bugs/ Problems OTHER PROBLEMS :
    - no longer has a five star rating system
    - my keywords for selecting albums are gone.
    - cannot copy location of one photo to another
    - cannot have an album with  keywords AND rating > a value
    - cannot set key photo of album/event
    - multi parameter search feature gone
    Anyone got any ideas how to get around this terrible downgrade of the software ?
    BTW I have just discovered that iPhoto and its' libraries are still there, so I can go back but be left behind and frozen in time on this version if I do.
    Photos now take up 700Gb whereas it was 350Gb  #@!$#@!@#!@#
    Thanks

    That are all good points - but Photos is a completely new application. and it is only version 1.
    Continue to use iPhoto, girraween; the next update to Photos will probably add a few more features.
    iPhoto 9.6.1 is working very well with MacOS X 10.10.3.
    The migration let iPhoto installed and also your iPhoto Library will still work with iPhoto.
    If you did not uninstall iPhoto, it will still be there in your Applications folder.  And if you had updated to the latest version iPhoto 9.6.1 before you upgraded to MacOS X 10.10.3,  you can simply drag iPhoto back to the Dock from your Applications folder and continue to use it. Double click iPhoto and confirm, that you want to open iPhoto and not Photos.   It is not compulsory to use Photos, while it it still the first release. When you launch iPhoto, you will see a warning, that the iPhoto Library has been migrated to Photos, but simply click the "Open iPhoto" button.The library will still work with iPhoto. ()see: If Photos won't open a library that you already migrated - Apple Support
    If your iPhoto version is not iPhoto 9.6.1, you need to update it.
    See this User Tip:
    Usually it will work to reinstall instead of updating:
    Get iPhoto 9.6.1 if you didn't update before OS... | Apple Support Communities
    The main idea is to move the iPhoto app to the Trash, so Spotlight does not see it as installed, reload the AppStore, and then to try to download again from the App Store - from your Purchases tab, not from the main page, since you can neither buy iPhoto nor update it, but you can reinstall, if your AppleID is associated with it.
    Meanwhile you may want to send a feature request to Apple using the feedback form. Apple - Photos - Feedback
    I hope, Apple will listen and add more features to Photos to make it usable for large Photo Libraries.

    Hello Duncan,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with Mail on your Mac.  I recommend the following steps for the issue you described:
    If you entered the correct password in the password dialog in Mail, but continue to be asked for your password, try these solutions.
    Open Keychain Access, then locate and delete the mail account password item.
    Open Disk Utility, select the volume (for your hard disk or disks) in the list, click First Aid, then Verify Disk. After you’ve verified (and repaired, if necessary) the disk, try sending yourself a message.

    Hello steveod2
    The main thing to do is to sign out all services on your iPhone, like iCloud, iTunes & App Store, iMessage and FaceTIme. Check out the article below for more information.
