Does itunes refunds authorization hold money?

My debit card had worked perfectly with itunes last time i had made a purchase using it (1.5 years ago). today when i tried to buy an app from itunes. I got a message saying new computer or device detected, i need to verify my payment options. I updated my debit card details and it showed 'payment processing temporarily unavaiable, please try again later'. I tried to update my debit card detail 8 times and everytime they deducted Rs.60 from my acc.

Now I have lost RS.480/- (Rs.60 deducted 8 times). Still itunes is showing i must verify my payment option.

Do i need to contact my bank? will i get this authorization hold money back?

Last time (1.5 year ago) when they deducted this RS.60 authorization hold, i never got refund from apple.

i have 1 more doubt :

Today i decided to update the asphalt8 app to the latest version( through itunes PC). The download was at ~600 mb ( out of 829 mb ) when there was a power failure in my area. When i restarted the PC ( after power was restored ), i tried to resume the download by Store>Check for available downloads, but it couldn't detect any ongoing downloads. There is a folder already present in my itunes folder( itunes>itunes media>Downloads>Asphalt8_airborne.tmp ), but it is not recognizing it..
Do i have to restart the whole download again ?? :/ :(

as far as i know, apple store doesnt have resumable downloads unlike google playstore. you may need to download again

Ipad mini is available for 14,820 currently . Of course the wifi 16 gb one. Great for those who were looking to buy. Although outdated, Still far better than similar priced android tabs in this range.

Anybody facing problems with "Slide to Answer" function of answering a voice call? I have noticed sometimes that I am not able to answer calls because the Slide to Answer would become sticky & not work. Noticed such issues in Apple forums but couldn't find any solution. Although the frequency has reduced but still it persists rarely.

yep happens at times on my iPhone 3GS running 5.something
but it is pretty rare

I just clean the screen, wipe my hands, and close all apps

also, does anyone know how an iPhone starts dying? im waiting for my 2009 model to go kaput, but it's still working. Battery life might have reduced a bit, (feels like it is charging and discharging quicker) but not sure.

What I most like about my iphone is that it charges up pretty quickly & I have put it on auto brightness so it automatically brightens up in sunlight which is very convenient & this is a 4 year old model.

[MENTION=56202]Anorion[/MENTION] One of my friends recently dumped his 3GS too as it had major battery problems. I expect newer models to last a bit longer than older models though(even 6 years sounds plausible IMO).

Nope. I used his phone a week before he finally changed it and everything was perfect. Everyday apps used to work fine(except lag in a few apps). He even completed first Infinity Blade on his phone.

Sorry for the late reply :p

Right off the assembly line
After I did my iPad mini and iPhone 5 I realized I could have used update vs restore. Is that not an option? May use that on my wife's phone to save time with restoring.
