Why won't iTunes accept my credit card that is associated with my account, and it is the same card I have used since I opened my account?

I have been using the same debit/credit card for my iTunes account since I opened it. It would not allow me to make purchases yesterday, saying that my card had been declined. Nothing is wrong with my card (I have used it at other places), and I have double and triple checked the information. Does anyone know if iTunes no longer allows the use of debit/credit cards to make purchases?

In reading a former reply the replier stated "Make sure you enter the code exactly as it is on your card". Meaning the 3 digit number on the back of your card not the pass code you enter into an ATM or when making a point of sale purchase in a store. The security code refers to the number on the back of your card not the pass code you use when making a purchase.
After making this change my account was set up with no problem.

Why won't iTunes accept Jim French Productions as an artist?

I am interested in purchasing single episodes of radio dramas from Jim French Productions through iTunes. I noticed that iTunes (via Audible) sells Jim French Productions collections in the Audiobook store, but audiobooks are not available for redownloading on any idevice. You can only download them once and must sync all your devices to one computer.
So, the perfect solution for both Jim French Productions AND iTunes is to accept them as artists and allow them to sell their episodes in singles or full albums of multiple tracks. I have contacted them and they said iTunes and Apple continue to reject their submissions. And that is just preventing me from giving you both money. And I would probably buy them all if I could buy them as music tracks where I could download them to any device without syncing.
So, why won't iTunes accept Jim French Productions as an artist? And what else can be done to get them accepted?

(I'm not affiliated with them in any way. I'm just tired of buying audiobooks on iTunes that I can't easily access and buying episodes through JFP website where I have to add to my iTunes and then sync devices. I just want to buy single episodes of a show that I enjoy listening to very much.)

I know I'm talking to iTunes users here, which I hope would include some iTunes employees since I don't know how to reach them. Apple's website makes it near impossible to actually talk one-on-one with anyone who matters. Makes sense. It just leads to threads like this.
Jim French does have audiobooks on iTunes and they are through Audible. I mentioned that. The only problem is that if you buy those on iTunes, you can't redownload them on other devices like you can with music. I know this. I've purchased many audiobooks and I HATE that system. And I dislike Audible's DRM. I want to buy audio content (whether it's music or books) and be able to access it on any device without having to sync devices, but ALSO have it backed up so I can listen 20 years from now without paying $20 for it again then.
So, I'm reaching out here in case some iTunes employee might be able to shed some light on why a company that iTunes has allowed to sell audiobooks (through Audible) on the iTunes Store won't allow them to sell individual tracks in the music section. There are tons of other albums of Old Time Radio shows in album form in the music section. So why not them?!
Thanks for meaning well and trying to help.

Yup,
Me too...this is stupid, stupid, stupid. Just purchased my 200 (ish) mac and now I am told that my new Mac Book pro is not "authorized".
Which if my 200 macs are authorized. Can someone please tell me???
I "deauthorized" my old MBP and still told I cannot use my iPhone with iTunes.
Interesting that my old $2500 MBP, my new $3000 MBP and my $500 iPhone all cannot work cuz of some pinhead's decision to use this assorization process.
Yes I am very, very, very mad.

HT4137 I have two iPad's that use the same iTunes/store account. I want the two devices to play games with with other, but it recognizes them as the same. I have set up two different iCloud accounts, but still not recognizing the users as different. What

Hello, I have no idea if my question went out, so I'll post it again. I have two iPads (one 3rd gen and one 4th) that use the same iTunes/store account. I want the two devices to game with each other, but the apps recognize them as the same. I have created two different iCloud accounts in an attempt to differentiate between the two, but no luck. How can I continue to use the same iTunes/store account for music and movies, but also have the two devices recognize each other for games?

You can share your iTunes ID and still have separate iCloud accounts with separate IDs, they don't have to be the same. If you kids don't already have an iCloud account, have them set up separate accounts on their devices using separate IDs. If they are already sharing your account, migrate their devices to separate accounts. To do this, start by saving any photo stream photos they wish to keep to ther camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tap the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward pointing arrow), then tap Save to Camera Roll. If they are syncing notes with iCloud, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to them so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in their new account. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from thier device and won't effect your device), choose Keep on My iDevice and provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone (if using iOS 7). Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create their new account and choose Merge to upload the data. Once everyone is on a separate account you can go to icloud.com from your computer, sign into each account separately and delete your data from their account.

Will Verizon Stop encrypting sim cards for iPhones so users can talk and surf at the same time?

Will Verizon stop encrypting iPhone sim cards so users can surf and talk simultaneously?

I can prove that this is not the case. I travel abroad monthly and have sim cards for these 2 countries i frequent and i can surf and talk at the same time. The claim that it needs another antenna does not support my findings. Can we be more transparent please. As a costumer i find it highly inconvenient to have to hang up a call with someone just to access an email.

I cancelled my debit card that is associated with my itunes account but now i cant download my purchases and tells me payment information is incorrect. On top of that i cant not see the "none" option while editing billing information

cancelled debit card associated with my itunes account, recently redeemed a $50 gift card and used about $40 halfway through downloading the purchases a message appeared saying incorrect payment information. I all the purchases can be downloaded for free but it asks me to sign in and i hit the sane wall saying payment information is incorrect. i tried removing cancelled debit card from billing information but i can not find the "none" option when i click edit. any help would be appreciated.

Hey there jappwno,
It sounds like you are unable to select None as a payment method in your iTunes account. The following article may help you determine why this is the case:

I use XP. When I open Itunes a mewssage comes up saying, Itune drivers are missing ,please reinstall. I reinstall and I get the same message. I use to be able to use Itunes for copying ,etc. but now I can't.

I have Itunes on my PC. I used it to burn and copy music which I had on Itunes. I had some work done on my PC. Now when I open it a message comes up saying, that Itune drivers are missing,
reinstall Itunes.
I did that and I still get the same message. What am I doing wrong

I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

This has never been a problem in the past, but when i insert a CD into my macbook, iTunes does not ask me if I want to import it and it ejects the CD. I have tried several different CD's and can neither play nor import them.

If that doesn't help you can try a cleaning disc, or a shot of compressed air but chances are good that your optical drive has failed. You can either replace it or buy an inexpensive external unit (but not Apple's as it won't work on macs with a built in drive working or not).

My SB Audigy 2 card can't use headset and musicamplifier at the same time

Hi, i just bought a SB Audigy 2 [D400] and i have downloaded drivers and programs. I run Windows XP SP2.
The soundcard works fine but it is very very annoying that i physically have to change the jack in the green=line out jack from headset to musicamplifier when i want to use my musicamplifier and change back the jack in the green=line out from musicamplifier to headset when i just want to use the headset/headphones .
In the shop they told my that i can connect both amplifier and headset at the same time and then with creative software control whether there is sound in the headset or in the amplifier. But i can't simple get it work.
I tried to use the green to the amplifier and the headset/speakers in the black (line out 2) and then with creative speaker settings softeware choose headphones but still the ampliefier receive the sound and no sound in the headphones. Why? In fact no matter what configuration i try the headphones doesn't work.
But if i change the jacks so headset is in the green line out then only headset is working and the amplifier doesn't work no matter i put it in sort=line out 2 jack or orange=line out 3 jack.
Can somebody here tell me if it is possible or not to connect both headset and external amplifier and control by software which to play? and how?
please help, thx.
Michael

If you can have an ASIO compatible music playing system, then it might be possible to have system like you wish when using Creative Audigy 2 card. Since ASIO bypasses Windows Audio System, you can use both 'drivers' (ASIO - WDM/MME/DS) side by side.
Say you want to play a game (using headset /w mic) and someone other like to listen music at the same time. With ASIO capable system you can output your music for example to "center L/R (stereo) channels" and same time output sounds from other source (using MME/DS/WDM drivers) to normal output channel (Front L/R). Only thing is, you need to set your speakersystem to 4 or 6 (depending which other channel you're using) (and for better 'balance' to adjust "angle" on THX console. You get the THX console by installing Audigy 2 Zs software).
Try for example http://img332.imageshack.us/img332/463/djs9mo.jpg[/img] width="406" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" >
Another option:
Say you want to play music through external amplifier and play game online with your headset + microphone (eg. others but you listen the music, you play games)
--> try free http://img332.imageshack.us/img332/4589/tbp7rz.jpg[/img] width="406" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" >
If you use ASIO on BeatPort Player you can select L/R individually from the list(s). Same rules as described earlier.
= You can play from 2 different sources simultaoneusly (ASIO + WDM/MME/DS) to two different outputs without disturbance. The other (WDM/MME/DS) source is set 'automatically' output to (Audigy) "green" port, and the other (ASIO) to "black" or "orange" port (as set).
