Purchasing music using gift card

How do you purchase music using a gift card after entering the card code?

you are wrong.
step 1 - choose movie
step 2 - buy (or rent)
step 3 - sign in
step 4 - are you sure you want to buy?
step 5 - buy
step 6 - billing
step 7 - enter payment information
step 8 - to redeem a code click here
step 9 - enter gift card code.
no where is there a provision to use the credit in your account.
if there is id appreciate where this is activated.

If you bought an Apple gift card, then you cannot use it in the iTunes store. You can only use it in the Apple store for hardware.
You would need an iTunes gift card to buy anything in iTunes

Is Settings > General > Restrictions > In-App Purchases: ON (green)?
Some In-App Purchases works only with credit card.

HT2736 Why can't I use my existing iTunes balance to purchase music as gifts?

It seems kind of dumb that I would need to use my credit card to purchase music as gifts when I have sufficient money available in my iTunes balance. This makes no sense to me. It would almost be better to purchase the music to my account, find and copy the folder it downloaded to and then send that to the person I was buying the gift for in the first place. At least this way we would both have the music!

it does not have ot make sense to you. This is the way the itunes store works.

That is illegal.

How do you reset the security questions when you havent used a credit card to make any purchases, only the gift cards. Apple support will not help me even though i know my account and apple id and password?

Have a new computer and now cannot access itunes without knowing the answers to the security questions. Apple support cannot reset as we have never used a credit card when purchasing prior, have only used gift cards. Can provide apple id and password and all other account details but still no help. Have we to open a new3 account and start again, this means losing a lot of credit on the existing account?!

I have the same problem. I didn't set a rescue email for some reason. To find out weather you hav a rescue password: Go to appleid.apple.com, sign in, go to manage account and then password and security if you do there will be a link below telling you that you can send an email to it. If not the link won't be there. Hope this helps.

You can't, Apple does not allow it.

No, sorry, you can't. You'll need a credit card.

I have a 16 year I support that lives in Haiti. He has a computer, but is not able to charge on a credit card. If I purchase prepaid Itunes gift cards, is he able to set up a Itunes account and use these gift cards. That would be his only method of pay

Hi judifrom!
I have some links for you that can help shed some light on the subject of gifting through iTunes and Apple IDs. The first can be found in this link:
Gifting - Apple Store (U.S.)
http://store.apple.com/us/help/gifting
and the relevant information in that link can be found right here:
Gift Cards and Certificates are valid for use only in the country in which they were purchased. Only residents of the U.S may redeem gift certificates purchased in the U.S.
You can still help them set up an Apple ID without payment information so that they can download free items through the iTunes store though. The steps for performing that can be found in the following article:
Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card

Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
Cheers,

If I purchased an iTunes gift card online in the US and sent it to a friend in Canada by email, can she use it?

Today, I purchased an iTunes gift card online in the US using my iTunes account login and emailed it to a friend in Canada. Will she have any trouble using it there online?
thanks for any help,
Sally

You would have to get a Canadian iTunes giftcard. But my guess is that they aren't sold outside of Canada. Unless you can locate online

I USE GIFT CARDS FOR PURCHASES(VISA, MC) NOW I CAN'T MAKE A PURCHASE. THEY SAY I HAVE TOO MANY CREDIT CARDS ON FILE

They say I have too many credit cards on file for my username- purchase cancelled. I use gift cards for gaming purchases (Visa,MC) so I have used a few, but its a gift card.

This is most likely a security precaution since they probably assume that someone using multiple credit cards over a short period of time may well have stolen them. Go here:
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store and request assistance.

I want to remove my credit card from my account and only use gift cards for purchases. How can I delete my card number?

You'll want to get in touch with ITunes support for this. Normally when you start an account with the CC you can't remove it yourself. But by contacting iTunes they can get that taken off for you.
