WHY APPLE DOESEN'T SEND AN EMAIL ABOUT A CHARGE PENDING TO DOUBLE-CHECK A CREDIT CARD

So I download an app from Wal-Mart, and I have not anything bought on iTunes in a while, if I have $17.07 to credit. I noticed a "pending" charge of $1.00 and think someone's trying to see if the account will accept the charge pending in order to come back and 'buy' something bigger. So, I call Discover and report any suspicious activity, and cancel us the credit card! I then called the phone number on the charge waiting to see if iTune can tell me who are the load, only to get a recording to go to the web site.  What I did.  Nothing on the web site indicates that Apple will send you from time to time pending charge to CHECK a credit card that has not been used! I got Apple Support call me and they told me it! WHY IS THERE NO EMAIL SENT TO THE ADDRESS ON FILE TO EXPLAIN THAT?

It's normal...  Apple places hold a $1 authorization, but you will be refunded within two to three business days.

Any payment holds card authorization in the iTunes Store - Apple Support

I noticed a "pending" charge of $1.00 and think someone's trying to see if the account will accept the charge pending in order to come back and 'buy' something bigger.

It is simply a waiting for permission. Nothing more.

  • Why Apple may not send a request to have a camera out of their account, if it was purchased or given legaly but have no way to do it themselves

    MY father had bought an IPad of Gen 4 someone online, but the person had mentioned that they did not have the password there apple ID. My father who have never owned an apple product didn't know the problem and may not be able to implement the IPad to a new user because it was never erased before you receive the device. So my question is Apple support! Why not Apple on request, be able to send an email or message to a phone number connected to a device that is in question. To have the device one account if it has been bought or given away legaly or was not stolen. Or if they do not want the device that they are linked more?  In my case of dads because he has no idea who the original owner is and cannot contact this person must be another way by Apple to fix a problem that I suspect many people have which can be easily solved. also it can let others know if it got stolen, and what they can do to repair or compensate the owners for a device that does not can be used once more. It seems that Apple could help a lot of people!

    This topic has been discussed in depth on several discussions in this forum. You stated the problem clearly in your message. He bought an iPad "someone online" who "said" they didn't have the password to their Apple ID. How to know you as a person who sells your father the iPad wasn't lying not knowing the password? What happens if they didn't know the password because it wasn't their iPad, but rather an iPad that they stole from someone and then are turning a quick buck? What evidence do you have that the iPad is 'legitimate '. Locking Activation, means.

    Any legitimate owner of the Apple device will not tell you that they "don't remember" their password. Reset your password Apple ID is not hard to do. And anyone who sells an Apple device is likely to know about locking Activation, even if they sell the unsuspecting person to do not.

    Sorry, but your father was a victim of fraud. If the seller was legitimate, they picked up the iPad and refunded the money of your father.

    Your situation, depending on how you have described, is exactly the kind of thing that the lock of Activation has been put in place. Sorry if your father has been taken for a ride, but it seems that you should choose a BONE with the person your purchased the device from - not Apple or the blocking of the Activation technology.

    Good luck

  • How the hell do you send an email about this crazy thing

    There is no send button. The entire page resembles the trash. All the tools known to facilitate this are a nightmare. None of this email, I want to remove will remove with your new crazy brainstorm, "uncheck to checked. Nothing works and do you really think that we all have the time to understand? Just tell me how to send an e-mail. Now, after years of simplicity I need to change my email address and warn everyone because of it!

  • First of all, he is a stupid way to have people ask questions.  Why can I not send and email and get a response, as is done on normal websites?  I am looking to buy a student Photoshop version.  I'll NEVER buy in the racket of cloud and have all

    This forum is ridiculous. Why a current employee cannot meet a real email? I am looking to buy a student Photoshop version.  I'll NEVER go through the 'Cloud' racket, so my only option is to purchase the software.  Is it possible, or you rely on everyone to be stupid enough to use the trap of cloud and get hacked?

    You have the possibility to communicate with customer service, but you'll be in for a long wait, and they do not know the software as many regular users on this forum.   With the help of this forum allows several people help both and let the other people to see answers that might be useful for them.  It's just a way to much to solve your problems.

    BTW, as a student, you can get a full subscription of CC for $15 per month.  Which would otherwise cost $50 a month.   Buy all the apps cs6 individually (I don't think that Creative Suite 6 is still available you would cost several thousand dollars and for extremely obsolete software.)  Sounds to me that a person would have to be stupid to spend a lot more for software that was nowhere near as good.
