Why does my app store say payment method decline

why does my app store say payment method decline when i down load a free app

Are you using a debit card?  I read somewhere that debit card are not being accepted by itunes.  Go to settings/itunes & app store, tap on the ID there then on view account, log in and check payment details to see if they are correct.

    It sounds like you've installed Mavericks.  You can confirm this by clicking on the Apple located at the top left of the screen and choosing "About This Mac" from the menu.  You should see a window appear with the text "Version 10.9.1" near the middle.
    If it says "Version 10.9.1", then you've installed Mavericks.  It still says "Download" in the App Store because you can still download the operating system after installing it.  This is useful if you want to download it for a friend, or create a USB boot drive.

    why cant i down load free apps it says payment method decline

    iTunes uses your payment method to ensure you are who you say you are and to ensure you have a way to handle in-app purchases if necessary. If you do not have a payment method in your iTunes account, then you need to update that. If you have payment method there and it is refused, it could be the bank that is refusing the way that iTunes and other merchants will put a temporary charge on the card to ensure it is valid.

  • Why does my App Store say all my apps are up to date when they're really not?

    I'm in the process of updating my iPod touch 5G to iOS7, and before I do so, I would like to update all my apps to their current versions. However, no updates are showing in the App Store; it says they are all up-to-date when they really aren't. I had about 13 apps to be updated. Is this a glitch as a result of the Apple Store being increasingly optimized for iOS7? I haven't even updated to iOS7 yet; I'm still running 6.1.3. I can manually search for some of my apps in the App Store and update them way, but that's too much of an convenience. I'd like them all to be in the Updates section. Can someone help me out with this?

    Mine was doing the same thing, open the store and go to updates and the screen will then refresh and tell you Itunes terms of service have changed.  You'll have to agree to the new 54 pages of terms to get any updates

  • Why does the App Store say Numbers is installed when it isn't?

    Numbers crashed after the last update so I removed it from my Mac but now the App Store keeps saying it is still installed and won't let me re-download it. Any ideas? (I have restarted the computer)
    Thanks in advance...

    Hi Sparkoids,
    Perhaps you could try this. In Mac App Store, click on Account, then sign in, and "Reset all warnings for buying and download.' Then sign out and back in and try downloading again.
    (Also, make sure it's the Numbers in your Applications folder that you moved to the trash, not the Numbers that you may have in an iWork '09 subfolder within Applications. You'll probably want to keep the version that's in the subfolder because it's got features that the new Numbers does not have, at least not yet. The two versions for the most part coexist happily on the Mac.)

  • Why does the App Store say I have no space on my MacBook Air?

    I have 26.3GBs free on my new MacBook Air. I am trying to buy/download RAGE from the App Store (12.x)GBs and so I have more than enough space for it.
    Every time I try and buy it, it tells me I do not have enough disk space to purchase the application! What in the world is going on?
    Thanks

    Ds store is NOT correct. I don't have Java installed, and I never get those Java updates in the App Store. They will only show up if you have Java installed.
    However, you say you REMOVED Java. There's really no good way to remove all components of Java once installed, so you still have some parts of Java installed somewhere, and that's triggering the updates.
    Don't worry about removing Java, just disable it in any web browsers you use. See:

  • Why does the App Store say Session Declined when I try to add my card?

    At first it was declining all of my debit cards when I was trying to purchase a FREE app from the store, it would not take a single card that I had. Now it keeps saying, "Session has timed out," when I go to add my new one.

    Thank you for replying to my question. I have already contacted customer support about it. They say I owe a certain amount of money, I am not sure for what. But, I asked them. Thank you!

    Could be anything from a chargeback, or your card is junk depending on what it is. Using the word debit card isn't realy descriptive, and can many mean many, many different things.
