Q: iTunes is not accepting my password - again.

Ahhhhhh ..

iTunes 11.0.4 "addresses an issue that may require you to log in to the iTunes Store repeatedly."

Houston, we may no longer have a problem. :-)

Update time!

so did you update? is it safe?;p

please share with us;)

I updated straight away and after a half days use no problems yet.

thank you for the feedback r_absher

I updated and everything is fine.

ok:) now i feel more confident about updating

thank you for your feedback too David Enzel!

I updated to 11.04

now I have a slightly different problem. iTunes asks to verify my billing info and won't accept my CC security code. I enter it and press "done" and I get a msg in red: "please enter valid security code"

Very strange. I also got this in 11.03 btw

AALLRIGHT...not updating to 11.0.4 lol...

but what trigger itunes to ask you the billing info and security code?

Updated.

Problem appears to be solved.

Just did a sync, and then found a bunch of apps that needed updating. 11.0.3 used to barf and DEMAND a password if I had done ANYTHING before accessing the iTunes store. 11.0.4 is smooth sailing.

BTW, iTunes wants to validate the billing info EVERY time the iTunes password is changed. Not normally a problem, except that when it DEMANDED an iTunes password, the validation routine turned into a nightmare.

i am confused what is exactly wrong with 11.0.4 and billing info and password...?

you need to validate the billing info all the time? and change password?

...After I click purchase album, I get the verify billing dialogue.

I'll try again, but I'm not gonna spend a lot of time  on it now...

thank you pete for taking time to do it and answer me:)

im still holding myself to this update, because since i downgrade to 11.0.2 and things are fine...

i see not much reason to update, is there any improvement or new features ? i saw that we can minimize the itunes to a mini player now right?

i have nimblify downloaded from AppStore, so i dont see a mini-player as a big feature;p

but definately if its true and everytime we make a purshase have to verify payment again and again, seems a little bit too much for me.

I'm sure it will get sorted soon, because apple knows very well that the more "friction" there is in purchasing, the more people will explore other avenues like Spotify streaming and some even less ethical ones if you get my drift. Frankly I feel like a bit of a freak because I believe in paying for the music that I want to hear...

just sayin...

ANyway, let's hope that Apple sorts it sooner rather than later. I have a lot of research I want to do.

Oops, I'm an idiot. Forgot to enter the exp date on my CC. All seems fine now...

LOL; so it isnt anymore asking to validate your billing info?;p
