Can't create a store account

I'm trying to create a store account. I can make it to the billing step, where it asks you to select the credit card you wish to use or Paypal. I choose Paypal since that is what I am going to use, I cannot use any of the credit card options. A browser (Firefox) pops up. I go through the steps, successfully verify my Paypal credentials, and I get to a screen where I can go back to itunes. When I click on "return to merchant" a screen comes up that says itunes cannot be found on my computer. When I click on the button to manually find itunes it sends me to the credit card selection screen in itunes. At the top of the screen it says my Paypal account will be used, but when I click continue it acts as though I've chosen to use a credit card but haven't filled out any of the fields. If I click on Paypal again I go through the above steps again in a loop.
To try to fix this I uninstalled Firefox to try to use Internet Explorer 7. I went to the Apple/itunes store site and searched for music in the little black box to the side. I find the music I want, click the button to listen in itunes and it goes in fine, to the artist I searched for, so the problem of not being able to get into itunes from the browser is fixed. When I try to launch itunes from a link in Firefox, I always get the "can't find itunes on your computer message". Now, the problem with IE7 is that when I go through the account creation steps in itunes and select Paypal as my payment method, a new browser window with the Paypal verifcation steps won't come up.
Please help me people, I just want to spend my hard earned cash on music. Thanks to anyone who reads this.

  • Can i create an apple account with an app store card, or do i Need an itunes card?

    Can i create an apple account with an app store card, or do i Need an itunes card?

    You need an iTunes card.
    You can setup an account without a credit card if that helps.

    I found this in the iTunes help menu.
    Redeem an iTunes allowance, gift certificate, or Gift Card
    If you received an iTunes Store allowance, gift certificate, iTunes Gift Card, or promotional code, you can use it to buy songs, videos, or audiobooks from the iTunes Store.
    You need to set up an Apple ID for use with the iTunes Store before you can redeem anything in the iTunes Store. You don’t need to enter credit card information to redeem only the amount of a gift certificate or card.
    Before redeeming anything, make sure you are signed into the iTunes Store (choose Store > Sign In, or select Sign In from the navigation bar at the top of the iTunes Store window):
    I don't see any mention of App Store cards.

  • HT1904 Hi I just created apple store account and I didn't get verification mail and I can't buy any games withou it. What should ii do?

    Hi I just created apple store account and I didn't get verification mail and I can't buy any games withou it. What should ii do?

    If you already created an Apple ID, you have to enter a credit card in order to use that ID now. If you don't have a credit card at all, you will have to create a new Apple ID to use without a credit card and you will need to have another email address in order to do this.
    First you will have to sign out of your current ID in Settings> iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. You can tap the ID and tap Sign Out. Now you can proceed with creating a new Apple ID according to the instructions in here.
    Create iTunes Store account without credit card - Apple ...
    You are saying that you don't have a credit card, but if you had one, you could enter the credit card in order to use the ID that you already created, but you never have to use it. You can use gift cards or just download free content. But unless you create the ID as outlined above, you must enter payment details.

  • Can I create a new account and keep all of my purchases and downloads?

    Can I create a new account and keep all of my old content? Recently got divorced and share the itunes account with my ex. I want a new account but do not want to lose all of my old content. Is this possible?

    Kmiller, 
    Get a copy of the entire iTunes library and copy it to the computer that you will be using from now on.
    iTunes Plus songs will still be playable, as will any "normal" MP3s that were purchased from Amazon or ripped from CD. 
    Any "protected" content from the iTunes Store, such as movies, shows, or pre-2009 songs, will not be playable.  If you need to replace any such items with playable copies, a cost will be incurred.  Make sure to account for this in the property settlement.

  • I am in south africa, just bought a voucher for us$ to get stuff from US itunes....but i can not create us itunes account, i am in south africa, just bought a voucher for us$ to get stuff from US itunes....but i can not create us itunes account

    how can i buy stuff in US istore with a voucher i just bought.... I am in South africa and can not create a itunes account in the US

    You can't, you can only buy content from your own country's store - to be able to buy from another country's store you need a valid billing address in that country and be in that country when buying from it. You will either need to make do with what is in the South African store (and I know that it hasn't got the same content as in other countries), or for music you could use other music purchase download sites that you have access to (and you can copy your own CDs).

  • HT2731 how can i create apple id account if i don't have credit card?

    how can i create apple id account if i don't have credit card of any gift certificates from itunes?

    You already have an Apple ID, or you wouldn't be posting here. I presume you mean an iTunes Store account. If you only want the free apps, take a look here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    Read the steps carefully as the order in which you follow them is  critical. Note that you can do this only when creating a new Apple ID. You cannot use an existing ID. 
    You will of course not be able to get anything other than the free content without entering in some sort of payment method (credit card, prepaid iTunes card, gift certificate, etc.)
    Regards.

  • HT204053 how can i create multiple icloud accounts for my family members

    how can i create multiple icloud accounts for my family members

    Thanks...  I appreciate the reply.  Since I wrote the previous email, I actually went and changed my apple id (the main id) and the documentation I looked at said iCloud will set mail up automatically(?)...  I had it working before. 
    Also, I tried to manually set up the ID via the Mail Accounts screen(s) and I can't figure out what my server information is...  Pop or Imap?  What's the outgoing server and the incoming server?
    I typically have never had problems setting up mail accounts (in apple mail) with no problem.
    Can anyone point me in the right direction?
    Thanks in advance!

    Thanks for responding and answering my question. If we decided to use my wife's icloud account as our primary, is there a way to "not sync" the incoming email with her iphone and ipad? That would simplify things greatly because she doesn't read any of her email on her iphone or ipad.
    If you don't want to sync the iCloud email account on her devices, all you would need to do is go to Settings>iCloud on her devices and turn Mail off.  This would remove the email account from her devices but would leave any other iCloud syncing services that you want to use with the account in place.

    How can I create a il=cloud account if i don"t have and IOS device. How does that actually work???

    You can only create an iCloud account on a device with iOS 5, or a Mac with OS X Lion.
    The whole point of iCloud is to sync your iOS devices with your computer...

  • I have an apple id and am trying to create an icloud however my phone is not allowing me. how can i create an icloud account?

    i have an apple id and am trying to create an icloud account however my phone is not allowing me and saying that the number of free attempts have been exceeded even though this is my first attempt. how can i create an icloud account?

    Are you sure the message isn't saying that the maximum number of accounts have already been created?  When you get this message you will not be able to create another account on that device.  Your only options are to either re-use one of the accounts previously created or create a new account using a different iOS device or Mac, if you have one.
