Can I purchase an iBook as a gift for someone else?

If I am sending a book as a gift via iTunes, how does the person open it up in iBooks, if does it automatically open up in iBooks.  I just don't want any difficulty for my father to open and enjoy his book.  Would I be better to just download it directly onto his ipad and not have it as a gift for him, could there be some technical or other difficulties for him?

    No. iTunes Store credit can't be spent on any sort of gift.

  • HT201238 How can I purchase iCloud storage as a gift for someone ?

    I Want to purchase iCloud storage for someone as a gift.. Is that possible

    The problem with this that it isn't a one-off payment. You have to give a credit card number, and then the monthly subscription is taken automatically until you cancel it. The credit card number would be the one in iTunes, so you couldn't use yours but then have theirs used to purchase songs or movies. Probably the only way would be for you to just give them the money, which isn't the nicest way of giving a gift.

  • I want to purchase my wishlist as a gift for someone else, without buying it for me. How do I gift a whole list instead of each song singlely?

    how do I purchase a wishlist of songs for someone as a gift. I only want to pay for the songs once!

    I agree. It seems a strange oversight, since the people most likely to want to gift a track are those who own and like it already. You can comment to Apple here, if you wish:

    I did, and I urge anyone else bothered by this to comment as well.

  • Can I buy an iPhone as a gift for someone else's account?

    My girlfriend has her account with AT&T.  She has the 4S.  How can I buy her a new phone without having access to her account?

    You will not be able to complete your order through the Apple Online Store, because the carriers require that you have the mobile number, account number, last 4 of SSN & password for account or any combination of a few of those criteria. The best solution Apple can generally offer is that you purcahse a Gift Card and allow the recipient to purchase the iPhone themselves. I understand that it is not the same, but I can tell you from personal experience that the reaction is equally as satisfying.

    It's not currently possible to gift ibooks, all you can do is send a gift card/certificate and suggest that the recipient buys the book with it.

  • How can I gift a song I have previously purchased (ie, purchase it again as a gift for someone)b

    Hi there.  Have purchased and downloaded some music from iTunes. Would like to purchase some of these songs as a gift, and send them to a friend ... But cannot find a way to do so, since the iTunes store registers that I have already purchased the music I want to gift. Any suggestions for a work-around?

  • Can I buy an app twice-once for myself and as a gift for someone else?

    I purchased an app that I like (Paper Essentials) and would like to buy a copy for a friend but I do not see any way to do that. The pull down menu beside "Download" does not have a "Gift" option in the way that the pull down menu beside "Buy" in an unpurchased app does.

    Well, I'm not aware of any app under that title in the stores. Can you please re-verify?
    If you are trying to gift this for Mac os X, then you can't.

  • How can I export a small iMovie 9 project for someone else using iMovie 9 in a way that they will be able to edit all the separate clips and audio?

    I've tried simply copying the project - but of course, that no longer contains the separate clips and audio used to create the project.  Is there some export function I'm missing - or do I need to just gather up the clips and audio used in the project myself and send those?
    Thanks.

    You need to export your project via the Share command.
    Share > Export Movie.... (or Share > Export using QuickTime).
    That will render your project (combine and set all the events, stills, audio etc).
    When completed you can then take that exported file and import it into iMovie on another computer (or back into your own) as a new Event.
    You can then start a new project, load that event file and continue editing.

  • HT5557 Is there a way to purchase itunes books for someone else as a gift (Christmas) and give them the codes without automatically downloading the purchase for me? Or is an itunes giftcard the only way to go?

    Is there a way to purchase itunes books for someone else as a gift (Christmas) and give them the codes or printout receiptwithout automatically downloading the purchase for me? Or is an itunes giftcard the only way to go?

    TV shows will only appear in the cloud if you are in a country where they can be re-downloaded from the store (you can't add them yourself), in which case they will appear in the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app for re-downloading. But they will only appear there if you are in a country where they can be re-downloaded, and then only as long as the TV company leaves them in the store (content providers occasionally remove their items).

  • If I buy an iPad as a gift for someone, can they add a cellular data account later?

    Hi,
    I am looking to buy an iPad air as a gift for someone, but I don't want to sign them up for any sort of cellular data account.
    If I buy the regular WiFi iPad, can they pay to have a cellular account added later?
    Also, if I were to buy say an AT&T compatible model, and they later change to Sprint, will they still be able to use the iPad on the new plan?
    Any guidance is appreciated!

    Yes. Apple or a certified Apple retailer. Any other source may be bogus. With the Apple SIM you don't need to decide what carrier at time of purchase. However, Apple only supports AT&T, Sprint, Verizon, and T-Mobile. Of course you can also buy it from your chosen provider if they support and sell them.
    I suggest you visit Apple's online store to see what you need. It's well explained. I just bought one two days ago.
