Unable to make in app purchases

I have seen many posts about being unable to make in app purchases but they all seem to be about being unable to access iTunes or purchaces don't go through etc but I have not seen my issue. When I go to in app purchases it shows the available purchases but the links are not active. there is no "buy" button etc. It shows the purchase price but when i try to buy there is no response. It is like a dead link. Any thoughts? Anyone else experiencing this. It seems to be for any app that has in app purchases. I've tried on both my iPhone 4s and iPad mini. I've tried logging out and then back in with iTunes and Ive tried turning the devices off and then back on. Same result. Ive uninstalled and re installed the app (which is Agricola, although no in app purchases from any app work) And In App purchases are enabled.

thanks for your reply, unfortunately the problem is not due to restrictions being enabled. It doesn't seem to matter if I am on my iPhone, iPad or computer. It doesn't work on my husbands phone either, so that leaves me to believe it is not an issue with devices, but with the store. My next step will to be to get in touch with Apple.
Thanks again for taking the time to reply.

HT4009 unable to make in-app purchases?

Why whenever I try to upgrade to the full paid version of a game, from the free trial, am I not able to make I in-app purchases- it says I need permission to do this? How do I get permission? I have a iPhone 4S
TIA
Lucy

I am also getting error msg saying "unable to connect to iTunes". What I have tried are:
1) reset my iTunes password - did not work
2) logout and log back in - did not work
3) delete app and reinstall - did not work
4) sign out and then try to buy in app forcing me to relog into iTunes - did not work
5) enabled and then disable restrictions in settings - did not work
the apps in questions are "Hero Academy" and "Tiny Farm" to name just 2 apps. I have randomly downloaded a new app which works and I can download any app from iTunes store... so i downloaded "Monster Life" and when I tried to buy in app purchases, IT WORKS.
Basically, I am thinking that all apps prior to today which I have bought I cannot make any in-app purchases, but apps downloaded from today, I am able to make in app purchases...
This is WACKED !!!!
I have emailed iTunes support and no reply yet.
Anyone have any solutions or work arounds, please let me know.
thx

Unable to buy any apps from store

am able to view my apple account but unable to buy any apps frm itunes store.. aftr clicking 'billing info' button my paymnt informtion page is being opend nd in tht this is coming 'your account has been accessed frm anothr computer nd u must verify ur paymnt information' even aftr editing my info nd all the same reply am getting... so wht should i do?

That happened to me too when I logged into my Older Snow Leopard and tried to make a purchase and it said the same thing you got. I logged out of snow leopard and booted into Mavericks and was able to make my purchase from there. Might have to make sure you log out when changing computers or boot systems before using the purchase option in the App Store from the different system.

Is there any way I could use my own apple ID to buy in-app purchases even if I used my aun'ts apple ID to install the app?

I have an Apple Account registered in the U.S & no credit card linked (since im under 18). I always use my Aunt's account because I buy in-app purchases and other stuffs in the app store, I also used her account to download the app I play but she changed her password and gifted me a gift card to redeem in my own apple ID...
But whenever I wanted to buy something from the game it asks for her password and not mine, I changed the logged in apple account in the iTunes & Apple Store hoping not to re-install the app because I achieved so much in the game..
Is there any way I could use my own apple ID to buy in-app purchases even if I used my aun'ts apple ID to install the app?

No, all apps are tied to the account that downloaded them, so only that account will be able to make in-app purchases within them - you would need to delete the game (which would also delete your progress/settings in it) and buy/download it with your account to be able to make in-app purchases with your own account.

Getting error message "unable to perform in-app purchase"

I have been trying to renew the subsription on the Sun app on my iPhone 4 but i am getting the error message "Unable to perform in-app purchase", I have money in my account, i have turned my phone off and back on and restarted it. Also my internet connection is fine. I cant work out why it won't make the purchase when i have had this app for a few months now and have always been able to renew my subscription each month without any issues, any idea why this could be happening?
thanks =)

Did you check your restrictions?

HT4946 when you change your country of orgin. why cant you buy in app purchases from apps that you downloaded in the previous country?

when you chane your country of orgin. why cant you buy in-apps purchases from apps which you bought in the previous country?

Bob,
Apple did approve our in-app purchase without publishing the folio ahead of time.
I have a new question: Can I change the "Cleared for sale" attribute in the iTunes Connect interface from no to yes before a folio's scheduled publication date? Or should I wait until after the folio has been published?
I would think you could set the "Cleared for sale" attribute to yes before the publication date and it would not cause any problems since the folio is not available to purchase until it's published.

TS1424 I am unable to make In-App purchases through myiTunes Store account from my iPod touch.

New iPod Touch 5. I purchased and successfully installed apps including iTranslate,Kitcam and Hotspot VPN.
I am unable to make In-App purchases through my iTunes Store account.
First error message "Your Purchase Could Not Be Completed, For assistance, contact iTunes Support at www.apple.com/support/itunes/ww/"
Second message:
"Error, Cannot connect to the iTunes Store"

I contacted support 2 days ago, got confirmation of my enquiry but so far no solution.

Last night I reset my iPod and was able to purchase in-App add ons for all but Hotspot VPN. I think Hotspot may be my problem?
