Try to download an app to my iphone it says my account is disabled
For some reason when I try to download apps to my iphone, even free ones, it will not let me because it says my account is disabled..why would that be? how can i fix it? I have a credit card on my account that I know is active?
They most likely do not know. A number of us are experiencing the same trouble. It is particularly infuriating since this involves our MobileMe accounts. Something must be going on with iTunes servers this holiday season. Perhaps they are getting hit by cyberattacks.
See this thread to see if you may fit in here...
The folks in this discussion thread
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2667154
are having the same problem.
And this one too:

i got an iPad and all my app's, music, and movies are on it, but when i try to download some apps to mi iPhone, they doesn't appear on the purchased tab, how could i move them back to itunes so i can access thru iCloud? i have an 2nd generetion ipad and an iphone 5, thanks for you answers!
(I think the daughter got he better end of the deal!) I believe if you change the password and user id one of the devices it will stop that from occurring. But I'm not the one to tell you how to do it; someone like "Illaass" (Illaass seems to know how to correct / fix almost anything!) will know how if you don't. Just look for the "cat" icon.

Hi apple, I have currently got a visa $50 gift card. I put it on my iTunes account I have currently ran out of funds on the card. Now even when I try to download free apps or even update, it says it requires a new credit card. Is there a way around this
We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
If you have a credit card on your account then it needs to be valid. Have you tried removing it from yoru account ? On your iPad try tapping on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Store on iOS 6+) and selecting 'View Apple ID' on the popup - that should give you a payments link on your account's page. -
When I try to download a app even for free it says my security code is wrong on my credit card but it is not wrong why is it doing that?
Is the address on your iTunes account exactly the same (format and spacing etc) as on your credit card bill : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646 ? If it is then you could try what it says at the bottom of that page :
If the issue persists, contact your credit card company and verify that they and any company they use to process credit card authorisations have the correct information on file.
And/or try contacting iTunes support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page -
How come after I reset my apple password when I try to download an app on my touchpod it says my password is incorrect?
After you reset the password did you go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores and sign out and sign back in? You have to.

When purchasing an app on my iPhone, it says I must first change from the US App Store to South Africa, I live in South Africa and have downloaded several apps before without any problem. What has changed ?
Hi HayCam,
Sounds like you accidently got changed to another store....
So, go to Settings>iTunes & App Store, and click on your AppleID at the top. Then click on View account, sign in, and then click on Country/Region, and follow the instructions to change your store to South Africa.
That should take care of it!
Cheers,

Whenever I try to download any application, a motification pops up saying, "Could not download Minecraft: Pocket Edition lite and 6 others". The application that I am attempting to download does then pop up and start installing but beside it the Minecraft lite app appears and then fails to download. It's not a real issue, it doesn't stop me from doing anything but it's rather annoying. If anyone could help me out it would be much appreciated
I'm having the exact same problem! It's rather annoying, I know. I haven't completely solved it yet, but a temporary solution is going to App Store > Purchases, find Minecraft - Pocket Edition lite, swipe it from left to right and tap hide. The problem should now be fixed. You can always unhide it using View Account and bring up the list of hidden purchases.
I think the problem was caused by a temporary 'black out' of Minecraft (both lite and full), which made the app unavailable in the App Store for a short time and gave people who wanted to update the app the same message as you're getting right now.
I hope I helped you out a little. -
