Do I need to pay for Cover art?

Hello All,
Still new to Mac and iTunes. Please forgive me in case this is obvious question.
I have imported several CDs through iTunes with no issues. However, the cover art will not download unless I have an iTune account. So I made one. But, I did not provide credit card information at this time. Do I seriously have to pay to download the cover art for CDs that I own?
Thanks All.

You have to provide the credit card information to create the account. The card will not be charged unless you make a purchase in the store. Album art is free.
You can also use PayPal or an iTunes Store Gift Card on your account. Find more info here: http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/creditcard

  • My lightning to usb charging wire is breaking, will apple replace it as it is general ware or do I need to pay for a new one?

    My lightning to usb charging wire is breaking, will apple replace it as it is general ware or do I need to pay for a new one? The wire came with my Iphone 5 and I have had it since the release date.

    I agree with you that Apple should cover it, and that if they're initially unwilling to, then a complaint should be raised.  However, the poster remarked that he went to an Apple store, Apple diagnosed the problem as being faulty RAM, and then the poster said that he has to pay $200 for "a new one" (new RAM, I presume).  No matter what you or I say on here, if the representative that the poster spoke to brought up a $200 charge, then what is he going to do?  "Some users on the internet told me it should be free, so I'm not going to pay that - just fix it for free"?
    Or maybe I'm having trouble following what happened.  It seems to me that if the poster went to an Apple store and had a system that was within warranty, if Apple found a problem, they would replace it for free.  In that case, where did the poster get the number for the $200 charge, and why is it even necessary to ask if it's covered?  Either he encountered an Apple Genius who didn't handle the case properly, or there's more to the story that he's not revealing (water damage, or so on).

  • Keynote and pages are now free, but why do i need to pay for them still when there now free?!?

    Users can obtain the iWorks and iLife applications free, if they purchased a Mac after the beginning of October 2013.
    Older Mac purchases require a paid purchase of these applications.

  • HT1977 I purchased a game on my ipod touch. I restored the device to factory settings last night and when I synced all the apps back, the game is now in the demo version. How do I unlock it ? I hope I don't need to pay for the full version again.

    PES 2012 is no longer available in the US App Store and only on the British App Store currently.

    That (an app no longer available) happens sometimes.
    Your only way is if you have the appt on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case move it to your iTunes library and sync.

  • I refurbished my macbook air 7 months ago because there was a problem with the steady state drive. Now my battery seems to be dead again. How long does the warranty last? Do I need to pay for a new battery?

    I refurbished my macbook air 7 months ago because there was a problem with the steady state drive. Now my battery seems to be dead again. How long does the warranty last? Do I need to pay for a new battery?

    As I wrote Apple will diagnose an Apple product even if it is out of warranty for free. That should be your first step to find out if the problem is the battery or something else.
    Once you have Apple telling you a 7 month old battery is defective (if that turns out to be the case)  then it becomes a game of horse trading. You'll need to speak to the tech and when he tells you there is nothing he can do you will need to speak to the tech manager and when she says most likely there is nothing they can do you go to the store manager, etc.  It is unlikely (though possible) that they will give in easily you need to be firm, polite and let on that you're willing to accept a partial reimbursement.
    So again the first step is to find out what is wrong.
    good luck

  • Need to pay for iPhone 3.0 Update?

    I have an iPod Touch and have purchased the 2.0 update some time ago.
    I wish to know whether I will need to pay for the 3.0 update AGAIN?

    I wish to know whether I will need to pay for the 3.0 update AGAIN?
    Only if you want it. And you won't be buying the 3.0 update again, just the once is enough.
    When you update the Operating System of your computer from one major version to another, you also have to pay. Same with software such as Microsoft Office, Photoshop etc. Minor updates are free, major updates you pay for if you want the features they offer.

  • How should I do if I paid monthly payment twice for a month. One is by Auto payment and the other is by hand... Is it possible to get refund? don't I need to pay for it next time?

    I know a couple others that waited for two billing cycles but it will come back as a credit on that account.

    Hi After I have report a junk message to 7726, I coudl not get Imessge from other iphones. and could not send any message in blue color but green which need to pay for. Does Apple blocked my imessage ? I have checked the setting. imessage is on.
    Thanks,

    Make sure that your date and time settings and time zone are accurate (Settings - General - Date and Time). Reset your phone to 'Set Automatically' and then try signing in again - this worked for me.  My date/time settings were not automatic (candy crush cheats!!).

  • I have ordered 2 Playbooks. Do I need to pay for 2 apps for the same one?

    So will I need to pay for one app on one tablet and pay for the same app on the other tablet as the tablets are mine and my sons.  sorry I'm new to this.
    thanks in advance.

    What are you talking about? It's a 3rd party App.  Apple is not going to include ANY 3rd party app on an iPhone. If you don't think you should have to pay for it, talk to the developer. I'm sure they'd love to know that you don't think you should pay them for their work.

  • When I am downloading a free application (foursquare) in the App Store, it came up with a message saying Verification Required which means I need to pay for it. Can anyone tell me how to fix this problem?

    I am currently using iPhone 3GS and when I am going to download foursquare which is a FREE application in the App Store, it came up with a message saying Verification Required which means I need to pay for it. Can anyone tell me how to solve the problem? For further informations, I am currently using Windows running Vista. Special thanks to those who replied.

    Your iTunes account sounds like it does not have a credit card or payment attached to it. Even free apps require that you have entered payment information even though you won't be charged for the app.

  • HT204053 it need to pay for using icloud account?

    If i have already icloud account on iphone 4s but i can not use for sending mail..so do i need to pay for this service?

    The features of iCloud account are free, you only pay for any storage you need beyond the 5GB of free storage that comes with the account.  Are you having trouble sending iCloud email?

    What are the main additional features available with this version
    Much better notifications, better Mail, better camera, iCloud, wireless syncing, wireless updates, etc.
    You can read this review of iOS 5

    IS it risky to upgrade to the iOS5 , Because I have seen many post in form that many people faceing issue when they upgrade to the latest version
    It isn't that risky. You may be reading hundreds of posts here about problems, but that is out of MILLIONS of iPhones that have been upgraded. Percentage-wise, that means most people have no problem.
    However, as with any major change to your system, you should back up everything your iPhone first. Just right-click it in iTunes to get the backup menu. That will be your safe fallback position in case something goes wrong.
    I still use an iPhone 3GS. That's older than your iPhone. But iOS 5 works fine on it.

  • Upgrading from 10.4.11 to 10.7. What are the steps and do I also need to pay for 10.5 and 10.6 along the way?

    Hi. I wannt to upgrade from 10.4.11 to 10.7.
    What are the steps and do I also need to pay for 10.5 and 10.6 along the way?
    According to the 10.7 lion page on 'store' it says that you need 10.6 to use it does this mean I'm going to have to do 3 upgrades?
    Thanks

    Why do yoy want Lion/10.7???
    Anyway, if your Mac meets the requirements you can skip 10.5.x, and even 10.6.x if you can afford to erase all your data.
    Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
    General requirements
       * Mac computer with an Intel processor
        * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least)
        * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
        * DVD drive for installation
        * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
        * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
    Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...
    http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
    It looks like they might still have it...
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A?fnode=MTY1NDAzOA
    If it's a core Duo & not a Core2Duo, then it'll only run in 32 bit mode.
    Lion/101.7 System requirements
        •    x86-64 processor (Macs with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Intel Core i3, Intel Core i5, Intel Core i7, or Xeon processor.)
        •    At least 2GB of memory[14]
        •    Latest version of Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.8), with the Mac App Store installed
        •    At least 4GB of disk space for downloading[14]
    Like Snow Leopard, Lion does not support PowerPC-based Macs (e.g., Power Macs, PowerBooks, iBooks, iMacs (G3-G5), eMacs).
    Lion also does not support 32-bit Intel Core Duo or Core Solo based Macs. Rosetta is no longer available in Lion, which means Lion no longer supports PowerPC applications.

  • HT4108 I have an iPhone4, used and locked to the UK network. I need to pay for the phone to be officially Unlocked. In the meantime we used it as a device to check emails and games etc.. We put a pass lock and after many failed attempts we forgot what it

    I have an iPhone4, used and locked to the UK network. I need to pay for the phone to be officially unlocked.
    In the meantime we used it as a device to check emails and games etc.. We put a pass lock and after many failed attempts we forgot what it is. Now the phone is Disabled and iTunes can not fix it since it can not update the Software without the phone being officially unlocked..
    any idea how to do this?
    Please advice

    You need to visit Apple Store, and show ownership proof in case of forgotton pass code.

  • What has recently been accepted for cover art

    I designed my cover right in ibooks author. It is not a complicated cover. My art is my photoraphy so the cover is a photo with simple text. It didn't require making it in software like Pixilmator that I have. I saw a video tutorial where the author takes a screenshot of the cover in ibooks author and uploads that image (changed into jpg) where it asks for cover art in itunes producer. He says that his book was approved. Has anybody done that process recently and been successful on the review by apple? Or did it wind up being neccessary to use other software to make the second exact cover?

    If you use iBA's menu 'File/Publish...', that process should call iTP and insert cover art for you.
    What tool(s) you create one on your own with, should you choose to do so, is up to you.
    From the 5.22 email on cover art:
    Cover images should now be ...in the RGB color space, and delivered as JPEG files.
