When trying to download apps it says my security code in invalid.

Someone help me!

So this has been happening to me for the last few months. I called customer service and they were very helpful, and tried thier best to help me. After 15 min of getting no where with the tech guys, I said good bye and decided to try to put in a new credit card, and WAALAA!!! Bingo it works now but, seriously, if this crap keeps happening, i will discontinue the use of Apple completely.
Once again, here is what I did to make it work:
1) erase previous card number, address, everything.
2) put in the info of a DIFFERENT credit card
3) press DONE and it should work
4) erase all info again, and try again with the old card
I am not sure if it will work for everyone. It worked for me and so, I thought I should post this and try to help.
Hopefully it works for ya'll!
Mercy

  • HT3702 My card security code keep being declined and the app store says my security code is invalid when it is not

    Why does my app store keep saying that my security code is invalid when it's not??!!!!

    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 authorizations have the correct information on file.
    And/or try contacting iTunes support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/

  • When trying to download apps to my ipad, I get a message saying a secure connection could not be established and to check my date and time settings?

    When trying to download apps to my ipad, I get a message saying a secure connection could not be established and to check my date and time settings.  Can someone tell me what this means and how to fix the problem?

    It's a POP account. I decided to clean up my mailbox today after noticing the computer was real slow after USA Today started sending their daily top stories with new graphics. Also before I noticed the problem with mail deletion - two things happened. 1) I updated security sofware as prompted by Apple and 2) downloaded Mackeeper and went throught some preliminary scans but did not buy their package. Thanks forn nstaying with me.

    You will need to contact iTunes Support, which you can do so via this link and ask them why the message is appearing (we are fellow users on these forums, we won't know why the message is appearing) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

    Hi I have just bought a new Mac Book Pro 15" Retina display with 256 SSD and 8G RAM. I had my info transferred form my Previous Mac Book Pro late 2011 to this machine. When trying to download Mavericks it says it cannot be loaded onto this machine? Strange as I have just downloaded Pages, Numbers and Keynote...free? Thanks and Regards
    Brian

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You already have got OS X Mavericks installed (the Keynote, Pages and Numbers versions available in the Mac App Store are only compatible with OS X Mavericks).
    You have got a Late 2013 MacBook Pro, which uses a special OS X Mavericks version that is not available in the Mac App Store. This is the reason why the Mac App Store is not compatible with OS X Mavericks even if you are using it. This will be fixed in OS X 10.9.1, when your Mac uses the same Mavericks version as all other Macs.
    Until then, you can reinstall OS X through OS X Recovery > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718

    When trying to download apps on my new iPad I keep getting prompted to update my security questions for my safety. When I choose this option it freezes and won't load the questions, however, when I hit not now it won't let me download. What do I do?

    Reboot your iPad and then see if you can set the security questions.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

    You can't use Safari to download iPad apps. Only use iTunes/App Store.

    Tks heaps for that, had a look at Store and ITunes sections, not overly helpful unless I am missing something.
    My issue is that on my computer she would update her iPhone with Software updates via iTunes.
    I have gone and deleted her backups that were still sitting on there.
    If I want to update my Apps on my iPhone when due her Apple ID and password request will come up as an option to use that account if I knew the password and it's synced from my Computer even though she has been gone 7 months now. Is it a syncing issue or is her Apple ID stored in my iTunes backups somehow and keeps coming back? Do I need to de-authorize her account from my Computer?
