    By 'not accept' you mean ... ? Are you getting any error messages ?
    For a credit card to have a chance of being accepted it needs to be registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, and have been issued by a bank in the country where you and your iTunes account are based.

  • Why Can't I Download Flash Player?

    I have repeatedly tried to download Flash Player after getting pop-up messages from Adobe that tell me I cannot open attachments to emails because I need Flash Player 9.0 or higher.  The messages say to download the latest Flash Player click here.  I follow the instructions to the letter and get a message that the download of Flash Player 10 has successfully been completed.  Then the next time I try to open an email attachment I get the same failure message.  I have also gotten led to an Adobe tutorial entitled Flash Player | 64-bit operating systems which directs me to select the 32-bit Internet Explorer system on my computer by going to Start>Programs.  I followed the download instructions using the 32-bit IE system and the download message says that Flash Player 10.0 has been successful.  But I still cannot open the email attachments and still get the message that I need to download Flash Player 9.0 or higher.  If I go to my complete list of programs on the Install or Remove Programs, I find a listing for several Adobe products such as Acrobat, ReaderX, Digital each of which has a size in bytes.  Flash Player 10 is listed but there is nothing shown in the byte size column.
    My computer is a Hewlett-Packard Pavilion with an Intel Pentium Dual CPU E2220 @ 2.40 GHz  64-bit operating system using Windows Vista Home Premium, Service Pack 2.  The default browser which I use is Internet Explorer 64-bit.
    I'm 80 years old and trying hard to get along with computers.  Please know that any help provided on this frustrating problem will be greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance.  And please make your suggestions in great detail without assuming I know very much. 

    Hi James, Check and make sure the Shockwave Flash Object is Enabled in your IE manage addons.
    In FF, look for the Shockwave Flash plugin and make sure it's Enabled.
    Make sure you are using the 32bit browser and not the 64bit.
    Also check this for IE: (you want this OFF, not on)
    To turn on ActiveX Filtering
    In Internet Explorer, click the Tools button, point to Safety, and then click ActiveX Filtering.
    To turn off ActiveX Filtering on a specific website
    In Internet Explorer, click the Filter button in the Address bar, and then click Turn off ActiveX Filtering.
    To turn off ActiveX Filtering on all websites
    In Internet Explorer, click the Tools button, point to Safety, and then click ActiveX Filtering.
    I don't have time to check on why Chrome is not working. Make sure your Anti-Virus is not blocking.
    Also when you are trying to Install, all browser windows must be Closed.
    Will check back later, but it's best to start you own topic as Pat suggested and flutie has done.

  • Why can I not download flash player on my apple iPad Air

    I need flash player to do some work on my iPad Air  but can not download it is there a way I can get it for the iPad Air

    Historically:
    2008 (March) - Apple® released the first iPhone, using iOS®. Steve Jobs was insistent and adamant that iOS® was NOT compatible with Flash® and NEVER WILL BE. Jobs' reasoning was that playing Flash® content is processor consumptive and it drains batteries, thus shortening the life of them in mobile devices. In six years, that hasn't changed. Not for the iPhone®, iPad® or iPod® Touch™. It never will change and there never will be a Flash Player® for iOS®.

  • Why can't i download the new I Phone software version (4.2) to my I Phone?

    Help! I have tried to do this software update about 10 times now! I have downloaded it successfully through I Tunes on it own but when i come to connecting my phone and trying to update it through I Tunes to my phone it downloads for about 11 mins, looks like it's done it and then a message pops up saying "There was a problem downloading the software for the iphone. The network connection timed out". I have checked all my network settings and internet connection is excellent? Any ideas people????

    I could not download 4.3 without gettign error 3259.  I went to the  Apple Genius Bar and they managed to do it.  Now I can't download 4.3.2 wihtout the same time out error.  I have disabled antiviru/firewall and it makes no difference.  I am not inclined to go to the Genius BAr again because they waster 30 min of my life by  not dealing with it at the appointed time.  I will live without this stupid upgrade that should not have been necessary if Apple had got things right the first time

  • Why can't I download app to my phone?

    I cannot download/open an app to my IPhone. It is an IPhone4 Black.
    I downloaded the Line app to my desktop but that wasn't the correct thing to do.
    I then tried to download it to my IPhone. I selected App Store and when that opened, it shows the Line app (see attachment) with the block saying Open. If I touch Open, nothing happens.
    What do I need to do to get the Line app installed on my phone?

    Thank you King Penguin for your response\.
    I think, based on your comments, that the problem is that I downloaded the Line app to my desktop. However, whenever I click on the file location, it takes me to ITunes music page.
    I'm including a new photo of the app on my IPhone.
    I'm not at all familiar with the intracacies of how everything works with IPhone. My primary use has been phone calls but my wife wanted this app installed.
    So, you said to press the home button twice. I assume it is the small button at the bottom/center of the phone.
    When I do that, all I get is snapshots of what is on my phone, i.e., App Store, game center, ITunes store, Phone, Facebook, Messages, etc. There is no task bar. If I'm wrong, please set me straight.
    In the meantime, I will try the soft-reset and see what happens.
    Appreciate your help.

    No Flash for iPads, iPhones, or iPods
    Here's why there's is no Flash available for iDevices or other mobile devices. Adobe was unable to provide a product that was suitable to the needs of battery powered mobile devices used for Internet browsing. Existing Flash technology used too much memory, ate battery life, and was buggy. Simply put Flash did not work well on mobile devices.
    Apple's Steve Jobs led the escape from Flash dependency when Apple introduced the iPhone, and later introduced the iPad. There was a hue and cry over the omission. Time proved Jobs was right on target.
    So this is why there is no Flash for your iPhone or iPad or iPod nor for most SmartPhones. Flash has been abandoned by many sites in favor of supported technologies such as HTML5 or by providing their own custom app.
    Here is Steve Jobs official comment on his momentous decision to omit Flash from iDevices: Steve Jobs on Flash.
    Here is Adobe's later announcement to cease development of Flash for mobile devices: Adobe on Mobile Flash.
    Now, you are not necessarily out on a limb. There are some apps that can display some Flash, but don't count on there ability to display anything using Flash.
    Apps that can display some Flash from the Web:
    Puffin
    SkyFire
    Photon Flash
    Browse2Go
    iSwifter
    Also, note that many sites that use Flash provide their own app for accessing their material. So check with your favorite sites and find out if "there's an app for that."

    I understand what afevrier is talking about and I am having the same issue.  I can look under system preferences, flash player, advanced and it shows me that I have the most current plug in version.  I click check now and I downloaded the most current version, but still, cannot access any thing that requires Adobe Flash.  There must be some other preference that we have set up that is not allowing us to use this.  Thoughts from anyone??
    A few questions. Where in Adobe Flash System Preferences does it say you have the most current version before you click Check Now? In my Flash Preferences at least, if I have the latest version I will be told that and not be offered to download it again. You can also find out what the most current version is by checking here http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ as well as what Adobe sees you have installed.
    What browser are you using Flash in? Do you have any extensions installed, such as NoScript or Ghostery which sometimes interfere with Flash working? There are other extensions too which cause such problems but are IMHO essential none-the-less for reasonably safe surfing.
