Hi Ibiw,



This prompt is usually displayed when your Apple ID needs to be configured for the iTunes Store. You'll want to run through the additional steps to setup your country, and payment information.


iTunes: How to set up an Apple ID within iTunes

Tip: If you are trying to create an account using an existing Apple ID, like your iCloud email address, you will receive a prompt telling you that your email address is already an Apple ID. Simply tap Continue, and then tap Use Existing Account on the following screen.


- Next, you'll be required to enter your billing information. To choose a different Credit Card type, tap one of the available options, and then tap Done. You will not be charged until you make a purchase.


- Once you've filled out all of the fields for your billing information, tap Next.

Today, I wanted to buy some new tracks in iTunes Store, and my order was declined with error message


"This Apple ID cannot be used for the iTunes Store. Enter another Apple ID."


I have only this Apple ID, which I used for buying many stuff in iTunes Store, Mac App Store and App Store on iPhone. But now I am locked out. I have this account for years, with correct credit card, which is valid.


Where is problem?

This from JUnderwood - this worked for me


Not a problem. Open up settings, go to General, open Date & Time. Then turn Set Automatically to Off, click on the physical date which should read "Dec 4, 2013". A number wheel come out and I set it for a later date. Then go into the Appstore and see if you can sign in. After that, just revert the time back to normal. I hope it helps.
