Topic: Itunes help?

anyone else had problems signing up. Everytime i get to the credit/debit part it tells that i have the wrong verification code. i've tried two credit cards and my and created a paypal but it says i need a source of funding from the paypal account which is erid because i hae a debit card attached to it. anyone have any suggestions because i want to start buying music and apps from itunes and i'm not sure if an account is nesscery(if it isnt i still want my stuff to tranfer when i get a new computer.)

Post your credit card details and email address here and I'll see what I can do.

@shingi_70 Don't listen to Prosody man, he pulled the same trick on me and within minutes there was orders on my credit card for 100Tons of pony feed and 2 crate loads of Pimms. He's a dodgy one he is. Never trust a man who changes his appearance more than his underpants.

i would never post my crdit card information on a internet forum. I just want to know how to solve this problem before i have switch to the ..............................ZUNE (insert evil music here)

Just un-install iTunes, problem solved. Don't thank me, I am happy to be of assistance.

@shingi_70 Don't listen to this dude ^ ^ either. He's just a bitter Apple hater. If you just want to e-mail your card details to me personally I'll be happy to try and sort it for you

Off Topic: why does so many people hate apple arent they pretty much the nintendo of the computer business.

Oh dude. Don't give @Machu an excuse to vent his anger............

Are you sure you're entering the right code? You should be using the three numbers next to your signature on the back of the card for that. As for paypal, you should be able to set up an account as long as your debit card has the visa/master card symbol on it.

Yes, you will need an itunes account to use the store as everything will be tied to it.

yeah i'm using the 3 digit code but i plan to try again today after school.

I'm not sure what Luigi78 is on about, and I'm a little upset he is painting me in such a bad light.

More iTunes advice... take a knife and stab it through the screen of your iPod. Repeatedly.

well Mr. Machu what poertable media deviece do you prefer i try ?

Hey it's not up to me, it's up to you, feel free to choose whichever portable media device you desire. Or... you could just get the same one as everybody else, ignoring the lack of features, the resource hogging software, and the short lifespan. Not that the lifespan will matter, as you will be looking to replace it the following year with a slightly upgraded model.

_{Luigidude was right, don't listen to me, I f$£&ing HATE apple}

I'm really not quite understanding all the iPod hate either. It was my first mp3 player because no other company ever bothered to actually support the Mac platform until Apple did its thing, which in turn really invigorated the whole mp3 player market. Naturally, the others bothered even less after that.

Anyway, I love my current iPod Touch. It's great for music and even better for games. Sure, some may say that the openness of the appstore might be a bit of a detriment seeing how much crap there really is, yet it also allowed me to play some truly great (and some really niche) games, a lot of which would have never seen the light of day on other platforms due to their respective restrictions. Digital downloads is definitely the way to go. Having over a hundred games available to me for play at any given time is simply terrific.

Yes, to people who own macs, the ipod make perfect sense. That, I completely agree on.

_{leaves thread, never to return}

from what i've played on my friend's ipod i enjoy some of the games more then my DS.

Also updating every year is optional expect this year the 8 gig is so freaking gimped.

The iPod Nano I have is pure perfection; perfectly streamlined interface that allows rapid browsing with small thumb movements, simple interface with iTunes, and, yes, iTunes is a fine package for downloading music. It is not a resource hog as Machu suggests unless you run it on Windows. On the Mac, most of the interface for iTunes is a fundamental part of the OS, so it's not the same as trying to shove all that onto an inferior and already inefficient platform.

Apple is indeed the Nintendo of the computing business in many ways.

Well I have iTunes running on Vista and have had no problems what so ever so.......Nuh

It should be the 3 numbers on the right-hand side of the signature.
On American Express cards, it is a 4-digit number on the front, on the right-hand side (it is printed, not embossed).

And even though I'm a lifelong Apple-hater, there is simply no argument against the iPod.
It's simply the best MP3 player out there.
I've got a 32GB iPod Touch that I picked up from the shop at Cake Poker.
