Why does it say invalid address when I try to update apps

It keeps saying it's invalid, but it's not

Just figured out mine.
They are not just using full address validation against the bank/credit card record. They seems to be using USPS validated addresses. So Bank/CC Address -> USPS validation -> source address, compare to iPhone/iPad Address -> USPS validation -> target address. As such, matching the addresses between iphone/ipad and the bank/cc record letter for letter is actually NOT necessary and as some of you have tried, doesn't.
Like mine for example, I use a PO Box as mailing address. The number needs to be the full number. The USPS version of my po box address actually has a couple of leading digits that are normally not relevant but that becomes necessary now. So my iphone address actually has extra digit prefix than my cc record.
Here's one thing you might want to try:
This link goes to Experian QAS website. It has a free USPS address verification tool. Enter your address (no personal and or demographic info is needed) and see what the USPS sanitized version looks like. Change your phone to match and see if that alleviate the problem.

If you worry about privacy, as a test, put in your neighbor's address, you might gleen some info on why what you have on your iphone/ipad is not validating.

Why does iTunes say "temporarily unavailable" when I try download my "available downloads"? HELP!!

You don't have the typical symptoms that I associate the following issue with (normally the error kicks in just when folks visit the Store), but just in case try gn_id's suggestion from the following post:

- Try a reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Go to Settings>Store and sign out and then sign back in.

Download and install the latest flash plugin only from the adobe flash download page. I believe safari is disabling or removing older versions of the flash plugin.

HT3702 Why does it say invalid security code when I'm prompted to sign in?

Why does it say invalid security code when I'm prompted to sign in. I have intered my security code from my credit card several times. It will not allow me to use the app store, even for free purchases.

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/ - click on Express Lane, then iTunes > iTunes Store

Why does google start up but when i try to access a web page it shuts off

why does google start up but when i try to access a web page it shuts off

Not entirely sure what you mean, but if you are saying that the Safari screen is frozen/inactive then try clearing its cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data (Clear Cache on iOS 4) and also Clear History
If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Hi Judy,
Deleting the Preferences files seems to be missing from your list.
Quit AppleWorks,
In the Finder, go to:
username > Library > Preferences
In the Preferences folder:
Locate and Delete the File com.apple.appleworks.plist
Locate and Open the Folder AppleWorks
In the AppleWorks folder, delete the following files:
AppleWorks 6 Assistants Cache
AppleWorks 6 Preferences
AppleWorks 6 Translators Cache
Optional:
AppleWorks Button Bars
This file contains your Button Bar preferences. If you have made changes to the Button Bar, but hanve NO issues that can be traced to the Button Bar, it may be left in place.
Regards,
Barry

Why does Safari go into limbo when I try to search for some things?

     Why does Safari go into limbo when I try to search for some things? I start to enter something in the search window. I get a drop down with suggestion I choose one and it pops up in my search window but just turns a color and does nothing!
    If I quit Safari and bring it back up, then enter the exact same line it's fine. This is just one of the many problems I've been
having with Safari since I installed Yosemite.
     Has anyone got any suggestions or is anyone having the same problem. Is there a way to maybe force my MacBook pro to reinstall Safari or possibly all of Yosemite. I seem to be having a lot of problems and judging by the responses I've received (That would be None) I must be the only one having any problem at all withYosemite. Not sure what to do.
     Any help or suggestions would be great
     Ron

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Try this first - Reset 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.
This works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.
