Hi.
im getting the exact same thing. Nothing has changed on my side?
ipad 2 keeps saying my address is invalid.
I figured it out.. I moved my street name up to the first address line and put Rd instead of road. Plus I added my middle initial. Just keep playing around with it til it works. That's what I did :)
its doing the same thing to me but i cant get it to work
I dont use a cradit card so i have no payment options and my address is right and it still wont stop showing that message!
HELP!
Same thing here. I even sent this problem to custom service, but they didn't reply me.
Hey. I just figured it out. I put North east instead of NE. And it works now. I think you just need to change the address in full name. Hope it works for you too.
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.

i've tried your suggestion, but nothing worked, i still can't purchase on the app store,, any mre suggetions,, please help
thanks in advance
Have you tried putting your middle initial? Full name? Use one line for address? You just gotta play around with it til it works... good luck :/
Hey guys I wonder if Apple are updating or doing maintenance on their itunes store. I dont know if yall been hearing like sony PS3 network has been hacked and the hackers had collected tons of credit card info..So it could be thats why..
This worked like a charm. I noticed in the two Adress spaces, my adress was split into two uneven portions. I just corrected it. My address on the first and leaving my appartment letter on the second. Badda-bing !
I am suddenly getting the exact same thing. Repeatedly. It wants the cc security code (and in my case, because my city is in two counties, the correct county) and when I enter the correct info it then proceeds and starts to update the apps. Then it stops and says incorrect address. This looks like bad code to me.
i tried this but then at the top it says: "There were errors or omissions in the information. Please correct the indicated items." But there werent any... then it said:"Please contact iTunes support to complete this transaction". HELP MEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
