Why can't I use my Itunes gift card for iphoto booth purchase?

I created a Christmas card and I thought that I could use my itune gift card since I have an apple and everything is hooked up to it and it never allowed me to enter in my gift card number.. why?

Only Apple can answer a question like that, have you tried asking them?

Why can't I use my iTunes gift card to purchase an app?

I received a $15 itunes gift card for my birthday and I redeemed the card on iTunes. The $15 is in my account but I can't use it to purchase an app for my mac at the app store. I heard other people had problems with the itunes and app store connections too. However, my friend had purchased an app with the itunes redeemed credit. Am I stuck being able to use it only for itunes purchases? Any answers?

This is incorrect.

How do you use an iTunes gift card for in-app purchases?

My kids received iTunes gift cards for christmas and want to use the $$ towards in-app purchases in Clash of Clans. We've already redeemed the cards to their iTunes accounts. Now they want to use them within the app.
How do they do this? If they try to purchase something it seems to just go against a credit card, and not give them the option to use the iTunes credit.
Please help!
Thanks,

I entered the code and applied to my apple account, so I assume I already have the credit. When I tried to make an in-app purchase, it asked me for my password again.
How do I know if the in-app purchase is deducting from the redeem credits or from my credit cards.
Also, is it possible to check the remaining balance of the iTunes gift card? This is the 1st time I deal with apple gift card... Quite confusing...
Please kindly advise.
Thank you for your attention.
Purchases are always deducted from the credits first. Look at the menu bar at the top for remaining credit. My credit is $23.59.

Why can't I use my iTunes gift cards in the Apple Store or online to purchase Apple merchandise?

I have received iTunes gift cards from people who expected that I would use them to buy Apple merchandise. I understand that there are two different types of gift cards but it just seems intuitive that they would be interchangeable Since it all funnels back to Apple.

Because this is how Apple has chosen to operate it's business.
No one here would know why they made that decision and discussing Apple policies and decisions is not permitted here.

Why can't I use my apple gift card to subscrib to imatch?

You can't use iTunes gift cards to register into iTunes Match because it's a yearly suscription, so Apple needs the credit card to charge it in case you don't have enough money on gift cards

Can I use a iTunes gift card for icloud storage back-up

You can use them to buy ibooks from the ibookstore - and also for items from iTunes, the app store and Mac App Store.
I assume that you are going to give the card(s) as presents ? You can't buy a card, redeem it onto your account, and then use your account's balance to gift items from the store, gifting can only be done via a credit card (and ibooks can't be gifted).

You will need to do what it says, contact iTunes Support. These are user-to-user support forums, if you thought you were contacting Apple by posting here. Go here:

to contact the iTunes Store.

Can you use one itunes gift card for multiple app stores?

if i had one gift card and used only $10 of it, can i give the balance to a friend?

No. To use the iTunes gift card you redeem the card, which puts the entire balance of the card as a credit for you to use on your account.

How can my child use an iTunes gift card to purchase apps instead of using my credit card?

My daughter (under 13 years of age) just redeemed her iTunes gift card she got for christmas, but there is seems to be no way she can pay with this in App Store. Can this be true? App Store says that her credit is 15 $ but my credit card is used for payments all the time...
And yes, we use Family Sharing - and yes my credit card works. But it is just no good that my credit card is being used when she has credit of her own (it was actually the point of giving her the gift card...).
Any solutions would be fantastic!

I can't seem to figure out how to redeem it in the iTunes store?
You can't directly.

Apply it in the online Apple Store to gift card purchases.

Why can't I move an iTunes gift card?

I just got our SeniorNet Computer Learning Center into Apple computers and tablets two years ago (Dec 2011) and I'm beginning to wish I hadn't. Here's the latest "policy" problem with Apple I've encountered. We have 10 Apple computers and 14 Apple tablets (iPads) and I've created unique Apple IDs for each device. When I upgraded the software on the Apple computers I had to assign my PERSONAL credit card to the account long enough to order the Mountain Lion upgrade and then I immediately removed my credit card from the account. I didn't like doing it because all of our students know the Apple ID and password for each computer so there was an exposure but I lived with it. However, it would be MUCH better (and SAFER for me), if I could order the upgrades for the desired Apple IDs, using my personal Apple ID account. I keep hoping Apple will hire some smarter people that might see the flaw in their current policy and change it.
Now, onto the latest policy problem. As part of teaching the iPads, I wanted to have a song on each iPad, purchased from the iTunes store. You already know my concern with assigning my PERSONAL credit card to an Apple ID account created for our computers so I really didn't want to follow that procedure in order to purchase a song for each iPad. My solution was to buy a $25 iTunes gift card. I could then apply the gift card to the first iPad Apple ID, purchase the desired song, then remove the gift card from that Apple ID and apple the gift card to the next Apple ID. That way, our maximum monetary exposure is whatever the balance is on the gift card rather than my available credit on my PERSONAL credit card. Sounded like a much safer plan than having to enter my PERSONAL credit card information on each Apple ID for all of our iPads.
Now, we encounter the latest DUMB Apple "policy". It was really easy to redeem the Apple gift card on the first Apple ID. I scratched off the label to reveal the code, entered it into iTunes, and was able to purchase a song for that Apple ID. Now, all I had to do was to remove that code from that Apple ID and move it to our other Apple IDs in order to purchase the remaining songs. The iTunes gift card balance would follow it, just like gift cards you purchase anywhere else.
I went into the account for the first iPad in order to remove the gift card but was unable to find out how to do it. I went into Apple Support and sent an email, asking how I could remove the iTunes gift card from the current Apple ID and move it to the next Apple ID. I just received a reply back this morning from Aaron: The BAD NEWS, currently, once you redeem an iTunes gift card on an Apple ID, you can't remove it from that Apple ID!!! I'm now stuck with an iTunes gift card with a balance of something over $23 and I'm unable to use it to purchase the other songs for each of our other iPads! I have no reason to purchase anything else from iTunes for that Apple ID so our SeniorNet Computer Learning Center is OUT the remaining balance on the iTunes gift card!
Apple needs to CHANGE this policy, IMMEDIATELY!!!
