Why all the sudden can I not use the store w/ my Apple ID that I have had for years??

ITunes says I can't use the store w/ my Apple ID, which is the same one I've had for years.  What's going on? 

Me too. If you are signed in, do not sign out. You can still do some things. If you sign out, you will be unable to sign back in until Apple fixes this.

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network      
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Why can I not use the channel name, which is obtained from the function of DAQmx Task, as the input of the channel name for the function of Get Channel Information of DAQ?

    Why can I not use the channel name, which is obtained from the function of DAQmx Task, as the input of the channel name for the function of Get Channel Information of DAQ?

    Not a lot of details here, but my guess is this isn't working for you because you are wiring in the task to the Active Channels Property and not the actual Channel Name. I have attatched a screenshot of what I believe you are trying to do. The Task has 2 channels in it, so I need to index off one of the channels and wire it into the active channels input of the Channel Property node. Then I can read information about that channel

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page should let you reset them : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

    I have an iphone4 and that I have had for four years and they are saying that I am not eligible for an upgrade until the end of July 2015. That is four years and 3 months after I purchased this phone. "Customer service" said I had an upgrade at the end of July 2013, which I did not. She said that in the system my husband took an upgrade July 29th 2013. He didn't even have a Verizon phone, he had a work phone with T-mobile. I have asked what device he supposedly upgraded to since no phones have been activated and we all still have our same phones and numbers. Remember at the time, said husband had a work phone with T-mobile. I still have the very same phone as do all of the rest of my family members. No one has upgraded. I spoke with "customer service" for more than a half an hour today, Char promised me that her supervisor (Emily) would call me back by 7:30 tonight to clear up this problem. Well guess what? No call back so where should I go from here? Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your help.

    someone swapped upgrades.  Phone could have been sold For quick cash.

    Back up all data.
    Unlock the Network preference pane, if necessary, by clicking the lock icon in the lower left corner and entering your password. Cllck Advanced, open the DNS tab, and change the server addresses to the following:
              8.8.8.8
              8.8.4.4
    That's Google DNS. Click OK, then Apply.
    In Safari, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    and confirm. If you’re using another browser, empty the cache. Test. Any difference?
    Notes:
    1. If you lose Internet access after making the above change to your network settings, delete the Google servers in the  Network preference pane, then select the TCP/IP tab and click Renew DHCP Lease. That should restore the original DNS settings; otherwise restore them yourself. Remember that you must click Apply in order for any changes to take effect.
    2. I don't use Google DNS myself, though I have tested it, and I'm not recommending it or any other DNS provider; the server addresses are offered merely for testing purposes. There may be privacy and technical issues involved in using that service, which you should investigate personally before you decide whether to keep the settings. Other public DNS services exist.

  • For some reason the Apple ID window in iTunes  and App Store now seems to have a character number constraint. As a result I am unable to enter the final few characters of my Apple ID which I have had for many years. Does anyone know what has caused this?

    For some reason the Apple ID window in iTunes and App Store now seems to suddenly have a character number constraint which prevents me using my 29 character Apple ID. As a result I am unable to enter the final few characters of my Apple ID which I have had for many years. Does anyone know what has caused this?

    You need to ask Apple for assistance with getting back into your old ID. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to resolve this issue through the Account Security team, fill out and submit this form.

  • The non-email address apple Id I have had for years, now won't work.

    I have had an Apple ID for a long time and it has always worked on every Apple device I have until recently.  This Apple ID was noot my email address just a random nickname.  I just recently downloaded the latest software update and about the same time my password for my old Apple ID stopped working at once for all of my gadgets as if it never existed.  When I tried to update my apps a box appears that says "You can't update this software since you have not owned the major version of this software"   I tried to use the feature "Forgot my password" to which I was redirected by ITunes but it asked for my date of birth for the purpose of verification and even though I answered it correclty 2-3 times, it told me that it was not the correct one. 
    Then I tried to log in using my account primary email, restoring the pasword for that email and then it worked fine.  Now I can log in using that email address as my Apple ID but it seems like my old Apple ID, that I have purchased everything, is lost in limbo.  The old password and new password for my non-email address Apple ID doesnt work, and when I request for an Email Authentication to be sent to my email for the old Apple ID, no email arrives.
    Since I have all of my information attached to my old Apple ID, and I cant log in, I can't update anything and its telling me I have to re-buy everyting. 
    Any ideas why this is happening and how I can get my old apple ID to work again?

    Did you previously use MobileMe with that ID?  If so, did you correctly migrate from MM to iCloud at mobileme.com?

  • Safari why can I not use the back button

    Hi;
    Ever since I upgraded tp Mountain Lion I cannot use the back button to return to an previous website.
    It seems I can only use the back button if I am going back within the current web site.
    In other words:
    I am in website A and go to a website B (home Page) and in website B I open another page, when I hit the back button it will go back to the home page of website B BUT then the back button is gray and no longer allows to to go back to the website A.
    Yes, there are tabs that have web pages but they are shortened.
    Thanks
    Greg

    Thanks, Not sure why when I got mountain lion it dropped it.
    Thanks again

  • TS2446 If my iTunes account was shut down due to fraud activity why can I not use the same credit card if I choose to when I have no other way to pay

    When I turned in my iTunes account b/c fraud activity had been detected while my iPhone was not working so they disenabled my iTunes account but I got my new apple id back to download free games but I can't use my debit card anymore and want to use the same card as that is the only access I have as a form of payment

  • Creative: Why can I not use the Advanced Video FX program?

    I'm told it's because I only own an Instant and need the Instant Effects camera (which is not released in the USA yet, or so i'm told) to use the program. If you go to the webpage for the Instant camera you see this big blurb "Free Advanced Video FX Software". Nowhere on that page does it say the camera has to be an Effects model.
    I'm tired of jumping through hoops to try and get this software, im just going to get a Logitech camera insted, stick to audio creative, it's the only thing you are good at.

    This seems to have been asked a lot around the net, however, there doesn't seem to be an adequate answer to it.
    I am running:
    Operating system is Windows 7Motherboard is Q67H2-AM v1.1
    Bios is ACER ver. 2.10.1207
    GPU is GTX 770
    PSU is 700w
    The Graphics card is plugged in to the 16x slot, the fans spin, but no display and no device is recognized in device manager.
    I have tried a few solutions including uninstalling my onboard graphics driver from the device manager and going to upgrade my 600w power supply to a 700w one.
    I think the issue is that I need to change the BIOS to PEG or PCI Express. However, in the Bios the settings for both "Primary Video" and "Onboard Graphics" are grayed out, meaning that I can't change them.

  • Why can we not use available store credit to buy apps?

    Recently I decided to stop using my credit card with the Apple iTunes store, as it seems that everytime I make the smallest purchase, I get dinged 2-3 times for the same purchase, then have to deal with Apple to get a refund for the over-billing ect.
    I recently went out and bought a 100$ card and added it to my account. Worked great, been buying music left right and center, rented a bunch of movies. All great. Even love seeing my remaining balance right in iTunes.
    Havent seen any problems except for the fact that you cannot use said store credit to send a gift to someone - you must bill it to your cc which is a pathetic move if you ask me. But no big deal.
    But with the launch of the App store, I decided to try out an app or two.
    I am using an iPod Touch.
    Found a nice little solitaire game for 7.99$. A little pricey, but what the heck.
    But again, you cannot use store credit to buy apps?
    There is nothing I can find either on the site itself about the App store, or on iTunes, that says you can ONLY pay with Credit Card.
    I should be allowed to buy anything that iTunes offers, with the card I bought.
    Its called an iTunes Card. Not an iTunes Music Card. Not an iTunes Movies Card. Not an iTunes TV Shows Card.
    iTunes Card.
    That means if its available in my store (ie. Canadian), then I should be able to buy it plain and simple.
    Apple, get your act together and get this fixed. Bad enough you let Rogers dictate the cost of the plans for the iPhone 2.0 Launch, and lost hundreds of customers before you even launched the **** thing - dont alienate customers who don't want to use credit cards on the store due to the terrible billing system you use.
