Creating Apple ID without credit card

Hi,
How can I create an Apple ID to use on Itunes without a credit card? I want to get free apps for my ipod touch.
I don't want to go through giving my serial number just to contact Apple support.
I searched Google for an answer, and many people say an Apple ID can't be made without a credit
card but I know that's not true. Many people already have. The closest I've come to making an Apple ID
is clicking on a free app in Itunes, and then I start making an Apple ID account, I click "none" for payment,
and I enter address/name, and when I click next is says "Please contact Itunes support to complete
this transaction."
I read the Apple support article "HT2534" and it's not valid based on my experience, because
after I click "none" and fill in name/address, it says to contact "Itunes support" as mentioned above.
I won't tether my credit card information to my serial number and iPod because I want to read pdf
files on my iPod with privacy.
When I want to buy apps, I already have an iTunes gift card to make payment, but I can't use it
without an Apple ID.
Help.
Re: I own the ipod touch 4g.

Update: My problem is still unsolved. No one seems to know how to help.
Everyone refers to the Apple support article "HT2534". It *does not work*. I tried two times yesterday, and it says to "contact itunes support" after I filled out my info instead of "We've sent you a confirmation e-mail".
I have an Apple ID. But when I try to get a free app it says the Apple ID hasn't been used on Itunes before, and it sends me (forces me) to the credit card registration page. This really is ridiculous. Many people in the Apple forums agree. What about all the people who don't have or use credit cards?
I found a Youtube video posted last week that shows how to create an Itunes account without a credit card,
but it's just what is suggested in HT2534. It's not different. So, while it may work for some people it doesn't work from my desk.
This has become very frustrating and made me very sad. I don't know why I spent all this money on an Ipod if I can't even read pdf files or install free apps.
I'll never give my credit card information to the Apple database - and many people feel the same way.
If I want to buy apps, I'll use Itunes or App store gift cards.

You have to enter your credit card number and some amount would be debited from your account(60 rs in india)
After registration, You can Go to
1 Settings
2.Itunes&App Store
3.Click on your apple id .
4.Select View Apple ID
5.Slecet Payment Info
And You can find NONE here.
Please select NONE to delete your credit card numbe r from the list
But While registering you cant find NONE, you have to enter the cc number.
Thank You

If None is not available - On your computer launch iTunes and click "iTunes Store" in the left navigation pane. Click the "down arrow" next to your name at the top right side of the page and click "Account." Enter your username and password and click "View Account" to log into your account information. Next to your Payment Type, click "Edit." Select the "None" button and click "Done." Confirm that your card has been removed by returning to the Apple account information screen. Under Payment Type, it should say that there is no credit card on file.

Go to the app store and select any free app you want to download, then it will ask to login or create a new apple id. Click to create a new apple id. the credit card will not be asked and 'none' will be selected in payment option. and your id will be created without credit card. If you want to purchase any app in future then your credit card details will be asked.

HT2534 Creating apple ID without credit card.. ''NONE'' option doesn't exist. Help!!

I don't use credit cards.. this doesn't mean I can't use iphone... APPLE.. plz help otherwise ur device is no more than a cheap talk/sms only phone..

I've just tried it and the 'none' option appears when creating a new account :
Did you follow the instructions on that page exactly e.g. you selected a free app in the store and clicked on 'create Apple id' when 'buying' it ?
And these are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to Apple here.

How can I create a second apple id (without credit card) for my daughter and share it on the same environment?

Hello, I found some suggestions regarding how to create an account without credit card details for a child, but I'm not shore if it would work harmlessly.
The following points describe my situation:
I access the iTunes store from my MacBook Pro, while my 15 year old daughter will access iTunes from her iPad.
Every time she needs a free download I have to enter my Apple ID in through her iPad.
When it comes to purchase an app or music for her iPad I do it from my mac and then synchronize with her iPad.
This is what I’m looking for:
I would like her to have her personal apple ID that don’t require a credit card so she would be able to log and download the free apps and updates
I also would like to purchase her software by using my Apple ID linked to my credit card
I wouldn’t want her to lose the software and on her iPad once logged with a different Apple ID
Last, I would appreciate to not see the apps downloaded on her iPad appearing on my iPhone: is there a way to have a selective destination for downloaded apps?
Thank you in advance

You can create a new account without giving credit card details by following the instructions on this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
And she can then use that account for free items. If she redownloads an item on her iPad (and similarly on your Mac) from an account (either your existing account or a new one) then she may tie the iPad to that account for 90 days (so she won't be able to redownload items from the other account until those 90 days have completed) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627
Also all content is tied to the account that downloaded it, so only your account will be able to download updates to the apps that were bought/downloaded by your account.
The apps will only automatically download on your phone if you have automatic downloads turned on in Settings > iTunes & App Store on it.

Hello, chard2say22.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
To create an Apple ID without a credit or debit card, there is a specific series of steps that have to be processed in order to allow the payment to be set as none on creation of the account.

If the specific steps have not been processed, a credit or debit card will be required to complete the setup of the account.
However, it can be removed and payment method changed to none as long as there is not an outstanding balance. At this point an iTunes gift card can be used as form of payment.

HT2534 create and use an apple id without credit card

According to Apple support (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2534) - i can create an apple id without credit card details.
In practice you cant, as both on iPad/iPhone and on PC you dont have the "Payment type - None" option
Have you manage to bypass this?
Is there a reason why this page is not updated per the actual use?

Did you create a NEW account using the instructions in Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card using an email address you had not previously used with Apple?
