Buying songs from itunes with a prepaid credit card

i am trying to buy 2 songs from the iTunes Store with a prepaid credit card,after i enter all the info i get error saying the credit card information does not match my bank information,which i never entered when i set up my apple account.does any body have any idea how to correct this problem. thanks

I don't think that prepaid credit cards will work - iTunes validates that the name and address that the credit card is registered to is the same as on your iTunes account, and prepaid cards tend not to have a registered address so will fail that validation. Depending upon what country that you are in you might be able to use the card to purchase iTunes gift cards and then use those as your payment method on your iTunes account.

Can I setup iTunes with a prepaid credit card

I want to setup a new iTunes account for my grandmother but I do not want to use my credit card or hers. I want to use a prepaid credit card, can this be done? If so, are there any preferences like visa, MasterCard, etc?
Thank you

You can try it, but prepaid "credit" cards often won't work since there usually isn't a billing address associated with them against which the iTunes Store processing system can verify. If you don't want to use credit cards, consider using prepaid iTunes cards/gift certificates instead.
Regards.

I'm trying to purchase iTunes Match with my prepaid credit card. It's actually a one vanilla Visa card. It's not working is there anyway around not having to have a valid credit card.

Valid methods of payment vary from country to country. Which country?

Are you in Italy... Do you have an Italian iTunes Store Account...

Buying songs from itunes and emailing them+more

If u buy a song from itunes,can i email it to myself,then open the song on ANOTHER computer in my house?
And when my ipod is connected the the pc,and itunes is open,if there is a firmware update for my ipod,will itunes automatically download it or notify me?

iTunes will tell you there is an update available and give you the option of downloading or waiting for later.
According to iTunes rules you can play your iTunes purchased files on up to 5 machines. All you need to do is authorize the new computer.

Why can I not buy songs from iTunes Music Store?

Earlier this year I moved from the U.S.A. to Sweden... changing my 'Mac.com' account address while doing so.
Last week, I tried to purchase some songs from the iTunes Music Store with my American MasterCard (a debit card) which is listed with my Swedish address at my U.S. bank. As I had never purchased at the iTunes M.Store before I was instructed to 'review my account'... which I did. It had my present Sweden address and my Mastercard listed as method of payment. Upon submitting the form, it was rejected, saying that my MasterCard was 'invalid for Sweden'! So I then go to the Apple-Sweden Store and purchase an iTunes Music Card which I receive in the mail the following day. Now I follow the Apple advice posted for purchasing music by redeeming an iTunes Music Card without listing a credit card (http://www.apple.com/se/support/itunes/store/giftcard/#GCA)... except there is no selection for NONE as indicated in these instructions.... So once again when I submit the form it is rejected, meaning that this time I have already spent money for the iTunes Music Card that is now worthless to me!
Is there another way I can redeem this card without going through that 'review account' window...?
I don't care to set up another account by setting up another e-mail address just to do this... as I want all of the Apple business to go through my Mac.com account as it should be configured to do so!

O.K. Everything seems to be in order now!
I don't know what happened but this is the results....
After attempting to edit change the information on my iTunesMS account at least 7 times, I posted the above question, logged out of iTunes, closed down all my apps and turned off my computer.
A few hours later, I thought I would give it one more try and when I turned on iTunes, went to the Music Store and then 'reviewed' my account... it had my old American address on it with the country listed as Sweden... I just left it alone, as it didn't have my credit card info listed at all... Curiously, I'm clueless about that (though I did send this same complaint to Apple during the first posting... did that have anything to do with it?) When I clicked the continue button (without changing any info) it prompted me that I was finished setting up my iTunes Music Store account and I was immediately able to download some songs....(using the iTunes Music card--- I have not tried my MasterCard!)
So basically, I did nothing except close iTunes, turn off my computer and later rebooted it and opened iTunes! Strange... does that seem like a fix or what?

Buying Songs off iTunes with gift card but says verification and billing info is required? I thought you did not need to enter card details once gift card has been redeemed

Trouble with buying songs using gift card

How was the account created ? Unless the instructions on this page are followed when creating an account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store.
You could see if this post by mountaingoatgirl lets you review your account without needing to enter credit card details : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24303054
If not then you will have to enter credit card details - you should be able to remove the card after entering it

If I'm downloading songs from iTunes with my iPhone, than I can't delete them on the iPhone. How can I get rid of them on the iPhone after I synchronised them with my library?

Since I have the iPhone4S I can't delete songs from the iPhone anymore, which I downloaded with the iPhone. I sync the iPhone with my library. That works perfect. But than I want to delete the songs on the phone. That doesn't work. Can somebody tell me how I can delete those songs?

You have to uncheck what songs you don't want in iTunes. I don't think you could delete songs off the phone direct, unless you had I tunes match.

I purchased songs from itunes with my old Apple ID, now i can't play the songs using my new Apple ID. Any solutions?

I purchased songs from the itune store back in 2009/2010 using an Apple ID/pw; I have since changed my Apple ID/PW and can't play the songs that purchased under the old Apple ID. I tried to purchase the same songs with the new Apple ID and it says "you have already purchased..." Any solutions?

Yeah, go to the iTunes Store. On the right hand side there is a Purchased option. Click on that. The content is separated by categories. Songs are then categorised by artists. The download key is on the right side of the screen, in the shape of a cloud.

Download karaoke songs from itunes with lyrics

How do you download karaoke songs purchased on itunes with the lyrics. No video lyrics are attached that I can find to download with it.

The songs in the iTunes Store labeled "karaoke" are simply instrumental backing tracks in AAC format, not actual karaoke tracks. They do not have lyrics.
If you are looking for actual karaoke tracks, check another online store such as BuyKaraokeDownloads.
