Why do i have to contact support every time i buy an app?

I can't believe I am the only person experiencing this. I've been an apple customer for over six years. I have two personal ipads, one work ipad, and two personal iphones with them. For some unknown reason this year they decided to put some restriction on my account that if i try to buy an app from the app store, I have to call in to support to get it to go through. Support fixes it, but ONLY FOR THAT PURCHASE. Anytime afterward that I want to buy an app, I have to go through the same thing again. Every time I call, I get a difference excuse for why it's happening. One person told me it's because i got a refund on an app once (mind you , the refund was because APPLE doublecharged me for one app, not anything that was my fault). Lately the new line has been that it's "for my protection". Who on god's green earth thinks that is a reasonable way to treat a customer? Why only me? I don't see anyone else complaining about this. I spent thousands of dollars on Apple equipment expecting a certain kind of service, and instead I'm treated like a criminal where I can't even buy an app with a valid credit card without getting special permission. Has Apple lost their collective minds?

We are fellow users, we won't know why. If you are frequently changing your payment method then that might be why - if you've got the message to contact them again then you could see if they can see why it's happening and if they or you can do anything to stop it happening.

Why do we have to change passwords every time we do something on the iPad?

WHy do we have to reset passwords every time we do something on iPad?

You shouldn't have to. It sounds like you may have content on the device associated with more than one apple id. If that's the case then, you may be entering a password for one account when you should be entering another.
I would suggest using only one apple id username on the device and delete any content associated with another.

I've seen a couple of other threads over the last 10 minutes posting similar problems, so it appears to have affected other people as well - the poster on the first thread has now posted again saying that it's now working for him, so you could give it another try.

HBO GO: Why do I have to sign in every time?

Every time I open a new browser window to HBO GO, I have to sign in again. I'm accustomed to web sites using cookies to keep me logged in. Also, it doesn't automatically remember what I've been watching, and navigation is practically nonexistent. Every time I want to watch another episode of the same show I was just watching, I have to search for it again and browse through all the episodes to get back to where I was. Why is this site so inconvenient compared to other web sites?

Please check your cookie settings. The cookies is what remembers information from the different websites. It's the Verizon website it has to authenticate to. So when you go to the HBO go website, it then authenticates at the Verizon website (a third party site according to your browser since its going outside the HBO go site)

HT201493 why do I have to log on every time I want to use this app? Logging on is a collosal pain,

Logging on every time makes the app much less useful.

That wouldn't protect your friends.
Not sure why you are averse to using a screenlock, you run a precarious line by not doing.

Why do I have to sign in every time use ibooks

Since the ios7 update, almost every time I use iBooks it prompts me to sign into my appstore account. This is new behavior and is aggrevating. Why is it necessary? Am I missing something?

Pretty sure it's a bug, same problem here. Only started after installing iOS7 7.0.2. It's only happening on my iPad though, not on the iPhone. However, the iPhone (which is logged into iCloud) is not syncing my progress from other devices.

Why do I have to log in every time I access iCloud?

I need to log in each time I access iCloud from Firefox or Safari, even though I always check the "Keep me signed in " box. Is anyone else having this problem? I never explicitly log out of iCloud (I don't know how I would do that anyway). If I bring up my calendar in Firefox and then exit from Firefox, the next time I bring it up I have to log in again. It's supposed to keep you logged in for 2 weeks if you check the "Keep me signed in" box. Have you seen this problem? Do you know of a fix?
Thanks!

This has now cleared up for me, I don't know why. Maybe Apple has fixed it? I did "Clear Recent History" in Firefox, but that didn't fix it immediately. It cleared up shortly after that, so maybe that had something to do with it. It's a mystery!

HT5622 Why do I have to sign in every time I run itunes

Is there a way to change settings so that each time I run iTunes I dont have to sign in, I can understand having to after starting the computer, but not when its on and I've already accessed iTunes and signed in.
This is a recent thing, before I had no issues, but over the last week its happening all the time and there is no option on the login to save my password,

Why do I have to refresh tabs every time I do a search with Firefox 7.01?

Whenever I try to open a new item from a Google search, the new tab appears with the "busy" circle icon, but nothing appears on the screen until I do a "tab refresh." Sometimes I have to do this twice before the site will finally appear.

Why does InDesign default back to Picas every time I launch the app?

I have repeatedly set my preferences in InDesign so that the unit of measurements is Inches. Yet, when I launch the app, it defaults back to Picas. Furthermore, even after adjusting the preferences again, when I open a new document the units are still Picas. How do I fix this?

CS5, yes? If so, that's a bug. ID will use the default settings of the language it was installed in. There's a hack to edit the prefs manually, but I don't have a link handy.
