Q: iTunes won't accept security code

Hey The dogg,

Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.

I understand you are having issues adding payment information to your account. In my experience, this usually occurs due to two common reasons (though there may be more):

1) Your billing name or address does not match the address listed on your credit card statement. Any discrepancy in punctuation, abbreviation, or capitalization can cause errors, which might prevent you from purchasing from the iTunes Store. If you moved, or if your zip code changed recently, ask your credit card company to make sure their records are up to date and match exactly what you are entering as your billing information.

2) The payment information may be declined if there are insufficient funds to cover the initial authorization hold (equal to around $1 USD).
