Bought a GC from iTunes US for Canadian Friend?

Hi guys,
I bought an iTunes email GC for a friend of mine in Canada, and she is unable to redeem it. How can I make this work for her? I am quite frustrated. I bought it with my US account. If she is unable to redeem it, how do I get my money back?

Sorry but no and no. Gift certificates cannot be used other than in the country of purchase, and someone from outside that country cannot create an account in an iTunes Store other than in their own country. So there's no way your friend can use that gift certificate.These restrictions are required by the content owners who do not allow cross-border sales (and are stated pretty clearly when you purchase the gift).
I do not believe that you will be able to get a refund, so I'd suggest just resending the gift certificate either to a friend in the US or to yourself so you can use the credit for your own purchases. Here are the steps to resend a gift certificate...
1. Launch iTunes.
2. Click on the Store icon in the Source pane to go to the iTunes Store.
3. Click on your account name to sign in to the iTunes Store.
4. Enter your password.
5. Click Purchase History.
6. Click the small grey arrow next to the Gift Certificate you'd like to resend.
7. Scroll to the bottom of the detail screen for the Gift Certificate and re-enter the new recipient's email address.

Contact iTunes and ask them. This is just a user to user forum so no one here has any ability to answer your questions with anything but a guess.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
I have seen previous versions mentioned in a pop up message before on iCloud.com, but I'm not really sure at all how it would help, as I couldn't get it to do anything.
The best advice I have at this time is to back up your work on your iOS device by regularly saving it to iTunes, if anything goes wrong you can then either load it into the numbers app again on the device or recover it via iTunes on your computer.
My syncs are immediate, I never get chance to see if it works in the background, sorry.

It's the first time I've bought a movie from iTunes on my PC and it gives me glitches the enire movie aswell as the voices don't match the picture?

I got a new PC. I have an iTunes account on my iPod as well but I set it up properly on here as well this is a Pavilion HP G6 it has windows 8. I dowloaded iTunes onit, it works fine. I bought "We're the Millers" today on iTunes and it gets me upset I can't watch it. Every time I play it it glitches. After the first sevral glitches the voice loses the picture; the character on the screen isn't saying the right words at the right time. I waited till it was fully down loaded and I restarted my labtop twice to see if the was the cause. It was not and and I getting up set I paid $13 for a HD movie that isn't even a movie; someone please help!

I bought TV program from iTunes last night but I can't view it on iPad. anybody knows how to solve this problem?

I bought TV program from iTunes and I can play it on MBP. But when I tried it on iPad, it returned viewing error. I searched for the solution but all I got was to convert the file to iPad version. Unfortunately, when I selected the file, Advance Menu was greyed out. I appreciate it if anyone can tell me what to do.

iTunes prefs > Store.
Tick Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases.

Delete the current copies and then download again (free) from your purchased history. If the problem persists contact iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history.

HT1349 I have suddenly lost the whole of my iTunes library, with the exception of music that I have bought and downloaded from iTunes Store. It was all there yesterday and I haven't altered anything, as far as I know!

I have suddenly lost the whole of my iTunes library, with the exception of music that I have bought and downloaded from iTunes Store. It was all there yesterday and I haven't altered anything, as far as I know! I hope it's something quite simple?
Apologies, but none of the communities listed seems to fit this question - so I'm taking pot luck!

For music that you've purchased from Apple that are on your iPhone you should be able to copy to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases. Also if you are in the US then you should be able to re-download past music purchases for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
For your own music that you've copied, then if you haven't got a backup on, for example, external drives or CDs/DVDs then you could see if any of the utilities mentioned in this old post still exist and work

With files as large as movies can be - make sure that you have ample storage capacity available on your iPad in order for the movies to download.
You can try restarting the iPad and see if the downloads will resume as well, or launch iTunes on you computer and go to Store>Check for Available Downloads, and download the movie to iTunes and then sync the movies to the iPad.
Make sure that you are signed into the correct account on your iPad - Settings>Store>Apple ID.

I bought a book from itunes with my ipad. after syncing my ipad and iphone the book did not transfer to my iphone. Any suggestions? I might add that I an technically handicaped

If the book isn't on your computer's iTunes then you should be able to copy it from the iPad by connecting the iPad to your computer and in iTunes doing File > Transfer Purchases and you can then sync it to the iPhone (connect the iPhone to your computer, select it on the left-hand side of iTunes, and use the Books tab on the right-hand side to select and sync that book). Or you can re-download it directly on the iPhone : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
Another option, if you always want ibooks to download on both devices, is to turn 'automatic downloads' for books 'on' on both : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT453

Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past purchases, delete the current copies from your iTunes library, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

I just bought a song from iTunes on my iPhone and accidentally stopped the download before it finished. How do I continue the download?

It shows it in my music but is a light shaded grey. So I may not access the song. I tried repurchesing the song but iTunes won't let me.

I had the same problem and solved it for myself, and I have a iphone 4s. I went to my songs and deleted the light grey songs then went to the itunes store, and selected more, then selected purchased. I scrolled down to the songs that were a light grey in my music, and pushed the download button ( icloud symbol with arrow on it) ,now my songs are successfully downloaded and ready to listen to any time!

You can connect the iPad to your Mac's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases, that should copy it over to the Movies part of your library.
Depending upon what country that you are in, and whether the film studio allows it, you might also be able to re-download it on your Mac via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page.
