I'm 16 and don't have a credit card and why can't i use an apple id on my iphone 5 without credit card?

I created an apple id today and i can't use it on my iphone because reviewing my id in iphone, it asks me to give my credit card info which i don't have because i'm just 16 and don't have a credit card and my dad won't let me use his'

You have to create an Apple ID a specific way to use it without a credit card. The one you have created now, cannot be changed to not have a credit card. See this support document. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2534

  • HT5312 If I can't remember my security questions, and don't have a rescue email address, why can't I just add a rescue email to my apple ID account without having to contact iTunes Support?

    If I can't remember my security questions, and don't have a rescue email address, why can't I just add a rescue email to my apple ID account without having to contact iTunes Support?

    I verify my identity just by logging in with my password, not being able to add a rescue email address without answering the security questions is just extra hastle and doesn't increase security. No one knows my password so how could they break into my account? I understand having security questions to change your password but not for adding an email address.

  • I have just upgraded my account why can i not use it, it keeps redirecting me

    I have just upgraded my account why can i not use it, it keeps redirecting me

    Hi;
    You upgraded your FormsCentral account?  Can you explain what you mean that you cannot use it, what is happening, when and where are you being redirected?  Did you use the same email address for the upgrade as you used to sign into this forum?  We see a lot of cases where users sign into FormsCentral with one email address but then use a different during the upgrade process.  Check and see if you have another email you might have used for the upgrade.
    Thanks,
    Josh

    Is your Apple ID one of the old ones which isn't an email address but simply a username? you can't use that to make an iCloud account.
    I'm not sure whether you can change the ID to an email address (such as a free GMail address) at http://applied.apple.com - you could try that; if you can't do that you will have to create a new Apple ID for use with iCloud. You can still use the present one for these forums and iTunes.

  • I have two ipad 2's, why can't i use the same update file for ios7 to update both?

    my kids have an ipad 2 each and we have limited internet, ihave downloaded ios7 update and updated one but it requires a second download for the second ipad 2, is it possible to use the one download like you use to be able to ?
    I have tried to "shift / click update" and navigate to update but it will not allow it as it's "firmware is incompatable"

    Are the two iPads identical? Can one be Wi-Fi only and the other be Wi-Fi + cellular?

  • I have a 27 in. iMac with the latest version of Snow Leopard. When Lion comes out, will it be software I purchase and download online? I am trying to prepare for cost and don't have a point of reference, having been a Windows guy until last summer.

    I want to know what to expect in terms of moving from one OS to another. Having been a Windows guy until last summer, my only experience is going from one version of Windows to another, which is usually a fairly costly purchase. I will want to go to Lion, but as a retired teacher, my income is fixed. I am not looking for a specific price, I am sure that is unknown, but I would just like to know help Apple does these things so I won't be sadly surprised.

    Historically Apple has sold OS X upgrades via DVD media however with the advent of the Mac Apple Store that throws another possibility into the mix. That's about as much as I can say as these forums don't allow us to speculate about future products. As for the cost historically Apple has priced OS X upgrades between $29-$129, the last upgrade (Snow Leopard) was only $29 but that was an exception. Again we cannot speculate on these forums about that. The good news is that Apple is unlike Microsoft which makes OS upgrades expensive and complicated. The choice with OS X is do you want a server version (most users don't need one) or a single computer license. The users that buy server versions tend to have a number of Macs they manage from a server, most consumers don't have this issue.
    Keep reading the news, as you know Apple has announced a Summer release for Lion.
    Upgrades on OS X are usually very simple. I've upgraded from Tiger to Leopard to Snow Leopard and each transition has been very easy. With any major OS upgrade there are some basic rules to follow, for example always, always, always backup prior to any update. When Lion is released to the general public post again for what to do to prepare or even do a Google search on "How to prepare for OS X upgrade" and you will find a number of articles that will provide some suggestions and valuable insight. You can also re-post here and users will be happy to assist.

  • I don't have a wireless printer, and want to print things off of my iPad.  I know that I can use the iPad Camera Connection kit to connect USB devices like keyboards and I am wondering if I could do the same with a USB printer.

    I don't think you can connect a printer since you won't have the printer drivers. I use FingerPrint from collobos.com to print to my non-AirPrint printers.

  • When I go to the crash report page the signature is null for ALL the crash reports. Is there any solution other than uninstall this version and try to install an eariler version? I don't have many add-ons and they never caused a problem before.

    Every since I updated to version 4 my browser has been constantly crashing, especially when I have a few tabs open. I need to give up on this version. My computer is windows XP sp3. Can I uninstall version 4 and install an earlier version and still get my add-ons? I don't have many, but xmarks and firebug are important to me.
    Now this form is malfunctioning.

    Try to uninstall the current Java version and maybe delete the Java installation folder (C:\Java) if that didn't work.
    You can also use the JavaRa Uninstaller.

  • Just got an ipad air and while creating my apple ID with credit card, I got to itunes gift card/ itunes gift section and was asked to supply a CODE to proceed with the form but I don't have the code. please how how can i get the code?

    Just got an ipad air and why creating my apple ID with credit card, a CODE was requested in the itunes gift card/ itunes gift in order to preceed with the form but I don't have the code. Please how can I find the code so as to enable me complete the form successfully. Thanks alot

    The iTunes gift card field is optional, you don't have to fill it in - leave it blank if you don't have a gift card.
    iTunes gift cards are country-specific (they can only be used in their country of issue), and they are not available in all countries - so you might not be able to dill it anyway.

  • Can't remember iCloud password and don't have access to that email how do I reset it?

    I have just got a iPhone 5 and I'm trying to transfere all iTunes and apps from my iPad to my new phone.

How can I reset my iCloud email and password without losing all my apps and tunes. Thanks matty.

  • Hi all, I'm trying to download a film from iTunes onto my iPad but downloaded the HD version instead of SD and don't have the room to download it. Have removed everything I can to make space but still need another 1.2 GB. How can I delete it??

    Hi all, I'm trying to download a film from iTunes onto my iPad but downloaded the HD version instead of SD and don't have the room to download it. Have removed everything I can to make space but still need another 1.2 GB. Is there any way I can delete it so I can delete the version I wanted, or even better change to the SD version? The film is still queuing in the downloads list. I've tried edit and delete but that doesn't work. I also can't re-download the film from iTunes.
    Any suggestions very welcome!

    Try to connect in recovery mode, explained in this article:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore
    Before that, back up your device, explained here:
