After I changed my credit card information of my apple id, I cannot buy Apps from itune store. It always show the message - " The iTunes store is temporarily unable to process purchases. " I can make sure the credit card is ok. And I successfully do purchasing from other web site. Can you help me?

You can try this on a computer...
Launch iTunes.
From the iTunes menu bar click iTunes > Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
Click: Reset warnings and Reset cache
Click OK.
Restart your computer.
For an iOS device, try "resetting"...
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

have tried. Doesn't work. Anyway, thanks for your reply! Which make feel not such helpless.
I was having this exact issue when I was set up to use PayPal as my payment method. I fixed it by -
1. going to my iTunes account and selecting None as my method of payment, then clicking Done
2. confirming this on my account page - which then said Add (or Set up, I can't remember) a Credit Card
3. on the Add a credit card page, I again set up the exact same PayPal account I had before.
4. I was then taken to the PayPal website to confirm that I wanted to use my PayPal account for iTunes purchases, and finally
5. I was taken back to my account page in iTunes, which looked exactly the same as before BUT...
The next time I tried it, my purchase went straight through! (And this was less than 5 minutes after I'd had the "Credit Card processing is temporarily unavailable" message.)
YMMV, but I guess a similar revalidation process would work for credit cards too.
I tried this, too last night and it worked.
Cannot purchase After change credit card
