iTunes message - your request cannot be completed (but no explanation why)

[Vonnie]

HELP!! I am trying to purchase Where's Waldo from the App Shopper which is showing reduced to .69p but am getting a message 'your request cannot be completed'. I have since noticed it is still £1.99 on the App Store. Has anyone got any ideas why I can buy at .69p? I'm sure if I try to purchase at the higher price will allow me to!! Thanks.

Yes, I have encountered a similar problem when trying to purchase apps, I guess it would help if they explained why !!!!!!!!! I will watch this space.

Oftentimes, you get that error because the app is being "worked on," for lack of a better phrase. All you can do is to keep trying to see if you can access it to buy it.

A word of caution - when you do get it to come up, check the price. Because, a lot of time the message appears as the app's prices are being adjusted. So, you don't want to pay more - unless, of course, you want the app anyway...

Hope this clarifies.
