Why am I getting a popup when I try to install a free app

I am trying to install the Google Authenticator app and I'm getting a popup saying "This item is free in the store. This item will be added to your Purchases, and will be available even if your Family Sharing status changes." and there is Cancel and Download. Every time I tap Download the popup continues to popup and its annoying the crap out of me. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME ASAP

There is a bug in the system as apple is preparing for all of their updates but the revolution is to go to iTunes on your computer > then click on the iTunes store > click on your account (email address top left and than account) > iTunes in the cloud > hidden purchases > find the app you are trying to install in that list and unhide it. Once it has been unhidden you can download it with no problem
This article from apple will help if my instructions aren't clear

Change your payment method to None > iTunes Store: Changing account information

Try using these instructions and create a new account. You have to use an email address not used with Apple before.

Please explain in more detail.
Are you actually seeing charges, or are you just asked to enter your CC info?
If you're actually being charged, it could be:

Why do I get this error when I try to install Reader XI in Windows 8.1?

"Error 1303. The installer has insufficient privileges to access this directory: C:\Program Files (X86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader. The installation cannot continue. Log on as an administrator or contact your system administrator."
This is my personal home computer. I have no administrator to contact. I have gone through all the trouble-shooting suggestions provided by Adobe but I still get this message trying to download Reader XI or X. I previously had Reader on this computer but it started failing so I uninstalled it and now I'm trying to re-install it. My antivirus system is Webroot SecureAnywhere and it says there are no problems with my computer. I'm using a 6 month old Dell computer and System Mechanic also says there are no problems with my computer.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.

I have the exact same problems as reported by Vector at the start of this thread. Running Windows 8, Reader stopped responding, so I uninstalled and tried to reinstall XI, I get Error 1303, with the issue being permissions on that same directory (x86\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader). If I open Explorer and try to navigate to that folder, I see it there under the Reader 11.0 folder, but if I double-click I cannot even open it, I get an "is not accessible. Access is denied" error. I checked the Security settings on the Reader 11.0 folder, SYSTEM, Administrators, Users, and TrustedInstaller all have Full Control. When I go into Advanced and check the box for "Replace all child permission entries with inheritable permission entries from this object" and click Apply, I get an error for the \Reader folder (Failed to enumerate objects in the container. Access is denied"). I tried deleting the Adobe folder on down, hoping I could just start fresh with the re-install, but it does not allow me to. Completely stuck. Any ideas?

HT204266 My new iPad. I entered my Kuwait credit card details in the app store and now when I try to install a free app, it says not available in Kuwaiti store. What should I do. I amnew iPad

I purchased iPad 3. While trying install application,it says it is not available in Kuwaiti store. I entered my credit card details to complete the configuration . What is the issue.

Even free apps have limits on where they can be downloaded. Either the app maker does not want to release it in Kuwait or (more likely) he/she does not have the rights or permits to release it in Kuwait.

TS1702 "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unabailable" Why am I getting this message when I try to updaate itunes or quicktime?

The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unabailable" Why am I getting this message when I try to updaate itunes or quicktime?

Before trying the update again, use Microsoft's Fix it solution at http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall. Use it to uninstall iTunes and Quicktime. It bypasses this not uncommon problem. When the solution finishes, the selected program will be uninstalled. It can take several minutes and I have seen as much as half an hour.
After iTunes & Quicktime are uninstalled, try the update again.

Error: source not supported. Why do I get this message when I try to play a video?

Did you copy the songs directly from a CD or did you download the files from a website?
You can use a different player than the Windows Media Player to play the songs if you copied them from a CD to avoid that.

Why do I get unknown error when I try to add to my iCloud storage

Why do I get unknown error when I try and add storage to iCloud account ? I have funds in account but I do not have a credit card # on file.

This didn't solve it for me. Card details already there, and iTunes purchases working fine.
But just to be sure I' have re-entered and resaved my card info and checked, re-entered and re-checked my appleID info.
Still not working.
Anyone got any other suggestions?

Try to go to Settings and then Store. Tap to your Apple ID and select View Apple ID. Now choose to check your payment information and when you're done tap Done. I had to rewrite my three digit code of the credit card and now it works.
Oh, I also activated Genius for Apps but I don't think it makes any difference.

You normally need to provide some sort of payment method (in part as proof of residence in the country) before you can get even the free apps. It is possible to set up a new iTunes Store account just for free apps, but you have to create a new Apple ID; you cannot use an existing one. If you want to do that, take a look here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
Read the steps carefully as the order in which you follow them is critical. Note again that you can do this only when creating a new Apple ID. You cannot use an existing ID.
You will of course not be able to get anything other than the free content without entering in some sort of payment method (credit card, prepaid iTunes card, gift certificate, etc.)

If you have a credit card on file on top of your gift card then it is asking you to confirm the security code for the card, which for a Visa or MasterCard is 3 digits located on the back, or AMEX has 4 digits on the front. This happens just to ensure that you are the account holder, and would happen from time to time whether it was a free or paid app, even if you have a credit through your gift card. This doesn't mean that your credit card will be charged.
