Help less than 24 hours and a market error

[mia014]

Hello.
I was wondering if anyone could help me out, I can not buy applications from market.. I can download free apps no problems but when i try to purchase any, I put my card details in, then click the buy button, a processing note comes up stating; "saving card details" then after about 15 seconds it says; Attention server error. and it does not process the transaction. It says to retry or cancel.

Am i doing something wrong???

Its my first Android

Sounds like you are doing everything correctly. You can try to go out on your computer and browse to https://checkout.google.com. You can go in there and set-up the card and then go back to the market and try again... worth a try.

And by the way... Welcome to the Android community and enjoy all that it has to offer!

I think I read somewhere (might have been Android Central), that the market is experiencing some technical difficulties right now. Everything you're doing is fine. It's Google thats having the problem right now

I had similar issues when using a credit card about a month or 2 ago. It was due to me buying a bunch of apps and the credit card company putting a hold on it until i called them to verify it was me making the transactions. I added another card in the meantime and everything was fine, until i had a chance to call the cc company and verify the transactions were legit.
