Can't buy update with gift card

It keeps asking me for my credit card information even though I have a balance of 15.00$. Does anyone know why this is happening?

I suspect you live in Canada. iTunes gift cards can only be used for music & video in Canada. Apps need a credit card.

    Why do you keep making multiple posts with this issue? You have now posted it three times in the last hour and have two different people helping you in two different threads!

  • We just purchased an IMAC and received a $100 gift card. Can I buy IWORK with this card? If so, how. I have already put in codes etc. but can't find the program.

    Can I use an Apple gift card to buy IWORK for my new IMAC? We got a $100 card with our purchase of our IMAC.

    Type iWork in the search box and there they are.
    You may also buy the iOS versions of the iWork apps in the iTunes App Store if you want to use them on an iOS device, such as the iPad.

  • How can I buy a UK Gift Card from the US?

    Hello,
    I understand that iTunes gift cards are country specific. I have a friend who lives in the UK and I want to buy him a gift card he can use. Is there anyway I can do that from the US?
    There has to be !
    Thanks !
    Paul

    Yes you can, Paul.
    You order it from the UK Online Apple Store and they will ship it to your friend.

  • Buying apps with gift card?

    Hi,
    It is possible to buy an Itunes Gift Card and use it to download apps for my Iphone rather than music? I didn't want to register using my Credit Card # for an Itunes account, so thought i'd try a gift card, will it work, or is it only for music and not app store? I have credit in my account balance at top right of Itunes but cannot get it to work.
    thanks.

    Microsoft points are not represented or classified as a gift card.
    Why would Apple on their own NOT want people to use gift cards to purchase apps. "Oh please Canadians, we have enough money we don't want yours so we won't let you buy any apps."
    If you do a search here, or on Google, someone at one time posted a link to the applicable statutes.

  • Why can't i buy anything with gift card balance on authorized computer

    I have gotten another computer. My son is using the one that I had put the gift cards on.  I am trying to redeem the balance I have to buy songs but it won't allow me to do it.  I haven't been able to find any answer to my question.  Is anyone about to help me???

    Perhaps if you provide more detail than just "won't allow me" someone can offer suggestions. As it is, you've not given us anything like enough information on which to do more than guess.
    Regards.

  • I bought the wrong gift card. I wanted to buy an itunes gift card but instead I accidentally got Apple store gift card via email. How can I buy an itunes gift card using my apple store gift card?

    I Wanted to buy itunes gift card but instead I got apple store gift card accidentally how can I buy itunes gift card using my apple store gift card?

    You can't from Apple, they don't let you buy iTunes gift cards with an Apple Store gift card. You could see if a different store in your country might let you (though they possibly won't), or try selling the card to somebody e.g. family, friend, eBay etc

  • If I can't buy apps with ituned card in Canada - how do I get my money back

    I don't want the cards if I can't use them to buy apps, so how do I get my money back? They sell the cards with the presumption that you can use them to buy anything thru itunes but after they are redeemed and you try to use them, they don't work! I want a refund!

    your out of luck
    use them to buy Music, Movies, TV, or audio books
    it is well covered on the net and in the TOU for iTunes Canada and in Apple online store (iTunes section).
