Can't update software without credit card info

Geek Squad set up my new Apple ID on my laptop when they did a file transfer.  I wasn't given the ID or password, but it says I am logged in.  However, when I click on software updates it wants me to confirm my Apple ID and enter my credit card information.  Is there a way to update software without using my credit card?  Software updates worked fine on my old macbook pro and did not require this information.

Yes - set Payment type to None.

  • Is there a way to have an AppleID for an end-user without credit card info attached to it?

    I am in charge of managing the Macs in our department. We have purchased a volume license for Mountain Lion (can't jump to Mavericks yet until we upgrade other software). I have a code to redeem, but the end-user is supposed to have an AppleID. I went ahead and started creating one for her, but it asks for credit card information, and corporate does not wish to have this information attached to an end-user's ID - they just want to supply it at the time of purchase for any future purchases (fear of identity theft and/or unauthorized purchases, I guess).
    Our Mountain Lion software is already purchased, so Apple shouldn't need the credit card info for us to be able to install it. I can't install Adobe's Creative Cloud software until she's at least up to Mountain Lion … I feel I am hitting a major roadblock here! Any suggestions? Is this a new requirement? My own AppleID (for work) that I've had for awhile has no credit card currently attached to it … must not have been required at the time.

    Try this on that Apple ID to get the None payment method option;

  • HT2589 How do I set-up an apple ID without credit card info or a gift card?  I just want free apps.

    I want to download a few free apps and do not want to add my credit card info to my Apple ID account (unless or until I make a purchase).  How do I do this so that I'll have an ID# to enter instead of account # or gift card # ?  Thanks!

  • Can I sign on to use the free apps without credit card info?

    Can I sign on to use the free apps without giving a credit card? I am an older person without very much technical knowledge and received this mini ipad as a gift. I do not have an smart devices, just a laptop which I primarily use for music which I have downloaded from youtube and from various other freemusic sites. Can anyone help with any tips on how to use and get the free apps for "free". Hope I made this eay to understand. Thanks for any information.
    Paul

    I primarily use for music which I have downloaded from youtube and from various other freemusic sites.
    Just as a precautionary note: be very careful which sites you use to download your music from; if the site is offering something for free which costs money elsewhere it can quite often contain hidden additions (malware) or some other unwanted stuff.

  • How do I create an iTunes account for my minor without credit card info?

    I want to set up an iTunes account for my minor to use without having to input credit card information. I want to give him an iTunes allowance or prepaid iTunes cards for funds.
    If this can't be done, can I create a user account from MY iTunes account to do basically the same? I do NOT want to tie a credit card to his account or user ID...
    Thanks!

  • HT201263 Can I update software without using my pc

    Trying to update my iOS but when I go settings, general it does not say software update

    It sounds like your iPhone is running a version of iOS that is older then iOS 5.
    It is only after you upgrade to iOS 5 that you can upgrade the software on an iPhone without a computer.
