Payment processing is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later.

Hi all, I am trying to update my card details as need to update my apps and have an outstanding invoice to pay, when I update my details it tells me 'Payment processing is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later.' Then when I go to the App Store online it says 'we're currently updating our store' could this be part of the same problem? I need to download my updates and can't and its very frustrating.


Also if it is the above then does anyone know when it will be available?


Thank you

Sorry I know this was a long time ago but Ive just had the same problem myself and managed to solve it. I noticed mine was because id spent a few months in Germany and when I returned to the UK ITunes wouldnt process my payments. I had the same notice "payment processing is temporary unavailable". I went to the Itunes store, logged in to my account, went to Manage devices and de-authorised all devices. Logged out of Itunes, Logged back in and Clicked the store link at the top of the grey bar, Scrolled down to Authorise this computer once completed re-entered my new payment details and I was good to go. Hope this helps.
