While trying to order some prints from Kodak/Apple via iPhoto yesterday, I repeatedly got the pseudo-error message:

“Please review your billing information and approve it.”

After checking out my billing information twice, and still getting that error, I found the answer on an Apple Discussions thread: Make sure your credit card verification code is entered in the Account Information screen. Why iPhoto doesn’t highlight or complain about the missing required field is beyond me, but overlooking this tiny field causes problems that hardly point out the source.

Also, as it happens, I haven’t changed my billing information since my last order, so I’m not sure why it suddenly disappeared — some suggest iTunes is doing something odd with databases behind the scenes, but I’m just glad I can order prints again!

I hope this post will help out others who run into this problem, too.
