I have $8.05 balance on my gift card. I tried to buy an app more expensive than that so i had to add my credit card to the apple account. But I couldn't use the balance from the gift card anymore. How can I select to use it? or did I lose it?

The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
The MAS should use any credits first and then apply the remainder to a listed bank card.

I just got my Mac and I used my family Apple ID. It had all of my parent's information, I added my e-mail.I wanted to make my own Apple ID, but I couldn't use the same e-mail address again! How do I delete this information so I can make my own Apple ID?

It is not clear how or where you "added" your email, but you cannot create an Apple ID using an email address that is already associated with another Apple ID.
If that is what you did, delete that email address from your family's Apple ID. You should be free to create a new one.
Do all that by starting here: https://appleid.apple.com/
Select "Manage your Apple ID". Log in with your family's Apple ID and then delete your own email address wherever it appears.
Save Changes, log out, and create the new one using the same website. This time select "Create an Apple ID".
Please don't forget your security questions, and be sure to specify a "rescue email address" that is separate from all other Apple IDs. You will avoid so many problems that way...

My PS cs6 ask me to buy the program. I bought it several years ago. This is the third or 4th time I have had to talk to someone to straighten the program out. How can we remedy this problem PERMANENTLY?

What steps are you following each of those times to get things working again?
The way that Adobe activation and serialization works is kinda like signing into a website. When you log in, a cookie is left on your computer so that you don't have to sign in every time. With Adobe activation and serialization, you get similar cookie files, that way you never have to go through that process again. Adobe never touches those files again, it just checks them to make sure they are there.
You issue you are encountering is the result of this sort of cookie file being deleted, damaged, or invalidated in some way. In most cases, it is because of cleaning software treating it like a website cookie, thinking it is unimportant, and removing it. However, there are many other possibilities including files becoming corrupted due to disk or file handling errors by the system and major system changes.
To take care of the problem permanently, we have to find out exactly what the source of the issue is on your computer and eliminate it (or mitigate it if removing third-party software is out of the question).

I have a iPhone 4s that doesn't have a sim card anymore, how can I facetime just by using wifi on the phone?

I need to use my iPhone for Facetime, without the phone having cellular service. How can I do so?

Is the phone activated? If so you can activate facetime and use it with wifi. If the phone is not activated you need to activate it using a SIM (the sime doe snot need to be an active sim) and hten turn on facetime in settings/facetime

You can't, they are gone.

I'm dying to upgrade to Lion. But I know some appls will no longer work. I just switched from Quicken to iBank. How can I find out what else I'm going to use? Is there a way on system profile? A specific 'kind' of application?

Is there a way, in profiler? maybe to find out which programs I'll lose when i upgrade? I've already switched from Quicken to iBank. But I'd like to know in advance i I'm going to lose anything else important!

Browse to the Mac page at http://roaringapps.com/. There you'll find hundreds (thousands?) of Mac applications listed with indications as to Lion compatibility.
Surely, there's more to Lion compatibility than merely whether the app is "Intel" or "Universal", as opposed to "PowerPC" (as shown under Software > Applications in System Profiler).
It's a bit surprising that nobody seems to have done an app that scans your system then looks up Lion compatibility at roaringapps.

My ipod won't allow me to turn the screen sideways anymore. how can i fix that?

recently i found out that my ipod no longer lets me turn the screen horizontally while typing or surfing safari. i have the ios5.1 update and i wonder if this is a problem or is there somewhere in the settings that lets me change it because i tried looking for that and i couldn't find anything. right now it's getting disturbing so pls help.

Next to the battery indicator icon is there an arrowed circle with a padlock inside? Id so that means you have the screen-rotation lock turned on. To turn off, double click the Home button, swipe the dock row fully to the right past the music controls and tap the icon.
Otherwise try the standard fixes:
- Rest. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod

I don't like the new layout. How can I make it look like it did before this unwanted update?

I don't want to just reinstall the older version, since I'll be constantly refusing update requests and will lose any new security updates. I just want to have the layout I had before FF changed it without informing me in advance. Otherwise I will switch to a different browser. I'm a patient man, so I will give FF 24 hours to correct this unwanted annoyance before switching over to the competition.

You can make Firefox 4 look and behave more like Firefox 3.6, for details see http://www.computertechtips.net/64/make-firefox-4-look-like-ff-3-6

Do you mean that you removed the phone from the 'manage devices' section of your iTunes account ? If you do then that won't stop you being able to purchase items on your phone - you only need to be logged into an account to be able to purchase with it.
If you do mean the 'manage devices' section then you can associate, or re-associate, a device (or computer) by using iTunes Match, or automatic downloads, or redownloading past purchases on it : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627

Your phone will need to be unlock in order to send the picture.
i.e. if your using the quick access camera while the phone is lock with the passcode, you will need to unlock the phone first then you can send the pic from your camera roll.

Buy something for more than the balance and charge the remainder to a credit card, or write Apple and ask them to keep the balance.
