Credit card instead of redeem card

I downloaded Final Cut Pro X and wanted to use a redeem code, but it used my credit instead. How do I fix this? Thanks for anyone's help!

I just want to use that download code now instead of my personal credit card.
As I mentioned previosuly, once the transaction has been debited from your credit card account, it cannot be transferred to another account.
You can ask Apple to make a swtich using the email form here > Apple - Support - Mac App Store - Contact Support
But no guarantees.

HT2736 purchase on credit card instead of redeem

Having an iTunes credit on the account, how can a purchase be made using the account credit card instead?

The only way is by seeing if you can gift the item to yourself (I haven't tried it but I think that it should work), as described on the HT2736 page that you posted from - for 'normal' purchases your balance will automatically be used and you can't change that.

Charging Credit Card instead of redeeming GC's

I have $60 in GC's on file, but whenever I buy something iTunes charges my credit card instead of using the on-file GC money. I've had GC's before and never had this problem.

Well it's strange to me that they would put "music, movies, and of course games" on the $50 card since it's such a well known fact... and Lack of reading is not one of my problems, I read the card I bought front to back up and down and left to right, and it no where was it stated that you couldn't use it for downloading apps. I called 1-800-my-apple and eventually talked to a supervisor who gave me this BOGUS answer. "You CAN use it to download games, but not for game applications" WHAAAT? I asked her "your trying to tell me there are games, and then there are game applications?" She said "yes" I said "okay??? What's the difference?" She says "I don't know" I said "then how are we supposed to know when we download them? beacuse it doesn't say anything about wether it's a game or a game application" She says "I don't know sir".... Please... PLEASE tell me that makes sense to you... PLEASE... I'de LOVE to hear it. If iTunes is going to rip Canadians of and screw them out of there money then stop selling the cards here! And it's not a lack of people reading the fine print.... it's that there is NO FINE PRINT TO READ!

Paying for itunes with a credit card instead of gift card

I currently have $ on an itunes gift card and this gift card's balance is on my itunes. I got an email from Am. Ex. that if I use $5.00 on my credit card on itunes, I GET $5.00 for itunes. Problem is, every time I download a song it comes off my gift card balance. How do I change to the Am Ex credit card on file to pay for my songs instead of the gift card?

Really late on this, but just in case anyone has this question: anytime you "gift" something on the itunes store to someone else, it charges your credit card instead of your gift card. Simply send the "gift" to your own email (perhaps not associated with your apple ID) and then just redeem the code it sends you in your itunes account

Itunes charged credit card instead of gift card for own ipod app (Australia)

I have sufficient credit on my gift card. The T&C conditions of the gift card allow the purchase for my own ipod. Why then was my credit card charged? This has not happened before as all other purchases came off of the gift card including purchases made after the app was bought. Thanks for your help!

Same problem. So I contacted apple with this question:
My main iTunes account has credit (because I've redeemed gift cards on it) but when I try to purchase anything in the store, it asks for a credit card.
I have another iTunes account that has credit and a credit card, and anytime I buy anything, it bills my credit card.
How do I purchase using the iTunes credit that is on my account? I don't want anything billed to my credit card, so I just haven't been buying anything on iTunes. But there are some apps for my iPod Touch that I'd really like to be able to purchase.
Thanks!
And received this reply:
...I understand that you are asked for billing information even though you have store credit. I can certainly appreciate you would like some assistance, and I would be more than happy to help you out with this today.
I'm sorry you weren't able to make a purchase using your store credit. To purchase items on the iTunes Store with your store credit, your account information in your user profile needs to be corrected. I'll walk you through this process to get you back up and running in no time.
1) Visit the My Apple ID website at:
http://appleid.apple.com
2) If the site is not displayed in your preferred language, click the Change Language link in the upper-right corner, type the name of your language in the field that appears, then click the Save button.
3) Click the "Manage your account" link.
4) Type your iTunes Store account name (which is your Apple ID) in the Apple ID field, type your password in the password field, then click the Sign In button.
5) Click "Addresses" in the column on the left. If you have multiple shipping addresses, remove any out-of-date or duplicate addresses by clicking Delete. Also, make sure the state or province field is filled out correctly for each address. To edit an address, click Edit. Edit all of your shipping addresses and make sure the appropriate state is selected in the State drop-down menus.
6) Now click "Phone Numbers" on the left. The area codes should be in the area code fields and the phone numbers should be in the phone number fields. If an area code is missing, or if it is in a phone number field, your account information may not save properly.
7) Make any other necessary corrections, then click the Save Changes button.
8) Click Log out in the upper-right corner.
When you make your next purchase on the iTunes Store, you will be asked to review your billing information. At this point, you can change your information or simply click Done at the bottom of the screen to proceed. Once you click Done, you should be able to purchase on the iTunes Store using your store credit.
And it worked the next time I bought an app on my iPod Touch! It was weird that it had my "Primary Address" and "Shipping Address" - though they were the same, I deleted my shipping address, and moved my "evening" phone into the "mobile" phone section, hit save, and problem solved. Weird that it was an address thing (I'm assuming) - perhaps the multiple addresses confused the billing process. It didn't ask to review my billing info when I bought something, but it used my store credit. Yay!
Hope this helps!

Pay with Credit Card Instead of Gift Card?

I have already credited my iTunes account with a gift card and there is still a balance on it. Is there any way that I can choose to pay with my credit card instead of my gift card balance? Thanks for any help!

That's unfortunate. Is there any way that I can temporarily clear my balance somehow? American Express is doing a promotion for free songs on iTunes but you have to pay with your AmEx card in order to get the songs for free. So, if I currently have a gift card balance then I would have to burn through that first in order for iTunes to charge my AmEx. Any one have any experience trying to do this?

HT201359 How can I use a credit card instead of gift card in the iTunes store

Amex is running a special where you get $5 back on a $5 purchase or more at the iTunes store. I have a gift card balance on the account and wanted to use my credit card for the promotion. Anyone know how to do this?

The work around.. would be to order a gift, then redeem the gift yourself. As gifts can not be paid for by your store credit.

Can I use my credit card instead of gift cards to purchase apps/in-app content?

I downloaded Global War a few weeks ago and now there is in-app content that I want to buy but everytime I try to purchase it, there is a message that pops up saying "Your purchase could not be completed" then another following message saying "Sorry... In-App Purchase Failed: Cannot connect to iTunes Store". How do I fix that? The content costs $9.99 but I only have 41 cents in my account, do I have to buy a gift card to get more money in my account or can I use my credit card? Is that the reason why those messages are popping up?

Hi, in my case It did not use the balance first. I had balance but it used my credit card. Do I have to sign in Itunes first? Thanks.

HT204406 How can I subscribe to Itunes Match redeeming from itunes card instead of using credit card?

How can I subscribe to itunes Match redeeming from itunes card instead of using credit card?

Do you have another device (eg a computer) that also contains your music? If so, yes, you can turn off iTunes match and sync everything with a cable. Do you tend to buy new music from downloads or ripping CDs? If downloads, you can turn on "download purchases automatically" on the phone to make them available to you there, once you've cable-synced your current library. If CDs, you would have to manually sync with cable (or over local wifi) each time you add a new CD.

It looks like the only graphics card option for this model is the GeForce GT 630 (2 GB). The GT 630 is not a large powerful card, so it is conceivable that the bracket isn't installed with integrated graphics or a low-end graphics card that doesn't require it. The "graphics card bracket" would mosr likely be installed with larger more powerful cards like the GeForce GTX680, Radeon HD7770, etc. Typically, the videos on HPs website are used for hundreds of different models and may show optional items not installed on a particular computer or may not show items that are installed. Just because a part is or isn't shown in the video, doesn't mean your specific computer is going to be the same.

HT201209 I have a credit card listed, but no longer wish to use credit cards. I went and bought some ITUNES cards and have redeemed them, but it's not letting me delete my credit card info and use the ITUNES cards!!! What do I do? I'm getting so frustra

Question~
I am currently using a Credit Card for payment methods on the ITUNES store. But my sons are now using it also, so my husband thought it would be best to delete the card and buy ITUNES gift cards instead so we dont have to keep loading this card. But it's not deleting my information. I redeemed the cards already and says that I have a balance on my account. But when we try to purchase something it takes me to the billing screen and it says there is an issue with a previous purchase because the card was declined! What do I do?? Someone please help. Thanks so much!

Remove the invalid credit card.

Can I gift myself credit then gift songs with that credit instead of single card transactions each time ?

Hi,
I would like to gift a whole bunch on individual songs.
Would the following approach be possible ?
Gift myself and amount and redeem that as credit.
Then use that credit to gift songs instead of individual card transactions.
Having each gifted song deduct from my credit on system instead of card ?
Thanks .

No, gifting (either an amount or a song, app etc) can only be done via a credit card - you can't use your balance for gifting.
