URGENT HELP!!! Recieved email indicating Apple Store has successfully charged my credit card 5,324.95 USD
I'm not sure if this is the right community but there is no Apple Store community that I can find.
I just received an email with an INVOICE link embedded in it indicating a 5,324.95 USD charge was successfully made to my credit card. I am absolutely certain this is not a valid charge, and the email does not look like the typical invoice I receive when an app or song is purchased.
I have opened the link, through my phone, and it tries to open a restaurant-piano something something page ( I can't see the entire address) but is redirected to a Microsoft.com page.
The email ends with Your Apple Store Customer Service Team. Also, there is an order number starting with a W2....
Has anyone seen this or heard about this?
HELP PLEASE!!!
Yes, I have called my bank to stop any charges.
I also received this email:
I clicked on CLICK HERE on my iPhone and it took me to MicroSoft.com
but if you hover over the link it shows: www.postlightdrinks.com/PUoWye7f/index.html

When setting up my apple id for the apple store I get to the credit card screen and it tells me I have to contact support to finish. I can't seem to contact support as there is no number for them on this type of issue. How the **** to I talk to a person who can fix this?
It's a real problem when you're deployed outside the US and your billing address, though totally correct, is not. This seems to be a common complaint. I think the billing address vs. your present location causes some security concern or similar nonsense that prevents progress.
The only way I know of to resolve this is to contact iTunes Support by email. I have never had to wait more than a day for a response:
http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
The response should not be "automated'. Explain your circumstances. You deserve a personalized response. -
Hi, I just wanted to buy two iphones from the apple store usa with a lebanese credit card. Is it possible?
The US Apple Store accepts US-issued credit cards only. And they will ship only to a US address. Whether or not a physical Apple Store would accept a Lebanese credit card I don't know.

Online Apple store has hidden charges; Apple Support nonexistent
I have been trying to contact Apple but they have not responded to my emails and the number they have for Philippine support on their worldwide support page is wrong. I tried calling it and the phone voice says the number is wrong. I recently bought a MacBook Air from the Philippine Apple store: www.apple.com/ph
At the store and in the invoice I received, I'm supposed to be charged P59,990.00. But instead, my credit card was charged P60,109.98. Considering I can get the MacBook Air at a local store for P59,990.00 (final price, no extra charge), Apple should inform buyers that the prices on their online stores have hidden charges. Or was there a mistake in charging me more than the invoice which says "Your (card) has been charged PHP 59,990.00" and "All prices displayed are inclusive of duty and taxes"?
I can't figure out because Apple doesn't respond to my emails and there's no way I can call Apple Support from the Philippines since the telephone number they gave is wrong.
I'm a big fan of Apple, but my experience purchasing this brand-new MacBook Air and trying to get support/explanation has been a disaster.Right. I just want to clarify that it turns out, the prices reflected in the Apple app store are not the final price. Despite the fact that the invoice said that the price will be reflected in one's credit card, it turns out, there are other charges added. I just wish Apple would be transparent about this so that buyers will not be surprised. Buyers will also have the option to buy the product at a brick-and-mortar-store where the actual price is the actual price (no hidden charges) when they learn that buying from the Apple online store will have them incur additional charges.

I used my credit card to pay for what app from Apple store. They credited my account but I did not get the product . What can be done?
Don't worry, maybe it's just authorization holds to make sure your CC is valid.

I was send an email via apple stating that I need to update my credit card information or my account will be cancelled in 48hours. Is this a valid email or fraud. I had the iphone for more than 2 years and did not receive a similar email
It's a phishing attempt to get your account and payment details (Apple don't send emails like that) . If you still have the email then you could forward it to Apple : [email protected]

Apple is charging my credit card
Apple store has been charging my account without my knowledge.
I know, may be I have set the setting that allow apple to charge my card.
Can somebody help me to turn that setting off or disabled so my card won't be charged automatically.What are you talking about?
Apple does not charge you card for no reason. It only charges if something is purchased using your account.
If you believe that you have been hacked, then change your password and alert your credit card company. You can discuss remibursemetn with them. -
Please can anyone help with the continuing password rejection problem with email on my imac.My Ipad and other systems work fine but despite reloading my password on imac it bounces back.Apple store has been visited and I have tried everything they suggest.
I use free Yahoo mail webMail access because folders I created in webmail access doesn't get set up in Apple Mail. While I was searching for post about password and keychain issues, I stumbled on several threads that complain about Mail folder issues, so I'm holding off on Apple Mail.
On the password and keychain issue that your post is all about. I've been using login keychain to save and automatical fill my login screens for a year or so successfully, with Safari and Chrome. Automatic form fill also works for Facebook login. Unfortunately, about 4 to 6 months ago, automatic password form fill stopped working with Yahoo webmail, while still worked for GMail (Safari and Chrome). I tried deleting the password entry for my two Yahoo email accounts to start fresh, but neither Safari not Chrome will even ask me if I want to save the password. I was so frustrated that I eventually installed the keypassX 0.43 (password manager) that is quite primitive sompare to OS X's keychain (when it works). Probably no surprise to you yet.
The surprise, to me at least, is that, for whatever reason, password auto form-fill from keychain started working again for Yahoo webmail login on Safari about 5-7 days ago. Still doesn't work on Chrome!
Two tips I can share, at least with webmail access:
1. Password is save only for one of my yahoo mail accounts. When I login in with my other yahoo account, I get no prompt to save the password, and form fill doesn't work when I try to log in a second time with my other Yahoo mail account.
2. On inspection of my login keychain, I see a webform password item saved for my Yahoo account that works with keychain. The name of the password is: login.yahoo.com(MyAccountName1#). When I open the password item and look in the Access Control tab, I see Safari and Chome are listed as allowed to access this password item..
I also an "Internet password" item with a name of just login.yahoo.com. When I open the the password item, it looks just like the password item created for MyAccountName#1, but the MyAccountName#2 is listed in the Account field. Inside the Access Control tab, no apps are listed in access permission. I added Safari and Chrome to the lists of allowed app, saved the password item.
Now when I bring up the Yahoo login page(by bookmark) on Safari, form fill fills in MyAccountname#1 for name and the proper password and I can login in. When I change the name to MyAccountName#2, the correct password is retrieved and I can log in! Alas, it still doesn't work on Chrome.
BTW, I changed the password item type from "Internet password" to "Web Form password" and saw no difference! I also edited the name to be "login.yahoo.com (MyAccountName#2)" to look like the web form password item that works, but it has no effect either.
From my experimentation, here's my observation:
1. A Web Form password item is created for the first account name(MyAccountName#1) for login.yahoo.com and typed as Web Form password. When I log in using MyAccountName#2, an Internet Password is created, but no applications are listed as allowed to access the password item, even when the password item was created after just logged in and logged out to yahoo with the account name and password for MyAccountName#2.
2. Manually adding Safari as an app that is allowed to use the password item works. Doesn't work with Chrome!
The version of Safari I'm using is Version 5.1.7 (6534.57.2). My installed version of Chrome is Version 21.0.1180.79 beta. -
The apple store has changed my I broken Iphone to a new one. But when I got it, i did not have all my purchased songs and apps in it.
You will need to plug it into your computer and re-sync them from iTunes. The iPhone is meant to be synced/backed up to iTunes on your computer on a regular basis. It is NOT a primary or backup storage device.

icloud keeps emailing me saying my account cannot be billed - please go to "settings" and click on "accounts". There is no "accounts" in my icloud . I checked into apple accounts and it says the credit card has expired. It has not. what now?
The credit card used is that registered in the iTunes Store. Open the Store and go to your account. Click 'edit' next to 'payment details' and amend the card details if necessary.

Someone I entrusted my computer to for repairs decided to keep it. all my personal information was on the computer. the peron has been using my credit card information o make ourchases from the apple store. If I do not have a credit card on the account on my iphone, I am unable to updatw it or my ipad. After persuading the apple store people to delete the last credit card info, I had to put aother credit card on the iphone to be able to update the software and thevapps. now that card is being used by the person o download war games on the new card. I cannot find any of his downloaded games on any of my devices. I am close to giving up my iphone and ipad. the last time i called the apple store, theynwould not give me the IP address of the omputer the games were downloaded to. they only gave me the name of my ipad. anyone could name thir ipad according to the name on mynipad. I have found the Apple store less than friendly about security matters like this. What can I do to maintain my acount and not continue to be ripped off by the thieving interloper? if i change my user name nd password, i will forever lose legitimate purchases. Please advise me.
KillerappleuserWe are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
Is the credit card registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, it was issued by a bank in your country and you are currently in that country ? If it is then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes support and see if they know why it's being declined : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management
Each time that you add or change your card details then a temporary store holding charge may be applied to check that the card details are correct and valid (though that is usually $1 or the approximate local equivalent) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3702

I cannot connect to ITune store to download app. I entered my Apple ID and password, and my credit card info, can you help?
Perhaps the reason that your username and password are not recognised is because you have caps lock on.

I can't seem to update my apps or make any purchases on from my account. Nothing has changed with my credit card information and for some reason the iTunes Store tells me my information is incorrect. What do I do?
Yes, it's frustrating.
I don't have my iPod with me but, as I recall, the change is done in Settings/Store. That change will apply to NEW purchases. However, be aware that all purchases are permanently associated with the Apple ID that was originally used. Generally, it's only a problem when you need to update an app. IF you do your updating from iTunes and your logged in to the "wrong" ID, you'll need to log out and back in again. It's easier from the iPod as you do not need to log out/in but you do need to know the password.
Unfortunately, you can not merge IDs nor can you transfer purchases from one ID to another. Go here to find out exactly what you have. I have the same problem so I deliberately made both passwords identical to make things slightly easier for me.
