Do you need a credit card to buy OS X Mountian Lion

i have 20$ on my itunes account and i keep trying to download mountion lion but but i get the same mesege insunificint funds so what do i do. PLEASE HELP!

No, you do NOT need a credit card to buy Mountain Lion. It is telling you that you have insufficient funds, because Apple still charges tax in their online store. You need to have one or two extra dollars in credit on your account(depending on your local tax) in order to buy ML.

Do you need a credit card to buy the sketchbook proor can you use itunes cards?

do you need a credit card to buy the sketchbook pro or can you use itunes cards?

Hi..
It might depend on the tax rate for your location.
If you are in the U.S. > http://www.bankrate.com/finance/taxes/check-taxes-in-your-state.aspx
If taxes or fees are applied to the $59.99, I doubt that $60.12 will cover it. You may need to purchase another iTunes gift card which you can redeem to increase the funds available.
it is 59.99 dollers and i have 60.12 and it goes to the billing part
If there are not funds available you will see a dialog asking you to edit your payment information. When there are not sufficient funds, the difference between the purchase amount and funds available is deducted from a credit or debit card account. If you don't want to have a credit or debit card then purchase another iTunes gift card.

HT201303 If item is free why do you need a **** credit card!! Tired of items saying free if you are charging me refund my **** funs I will post on all networks

I tried to download a free game and music app that are free then it pop up you need a **** credit card what the **** for.. Tired of being nickel and dimmed by company so how about fixing this ****!!! Very upset

If the game is shown as "free" in the App Store, it is completely free to download, but many apps have "in-app purchases" intended to separate you from your money.
The solution is simple - don't use those apps. Uninstall them and write a review in the App Store explaining their underhandedness.
To disable "in-app purchases" go to Settings > General > Restrictions and turn "In-App Purchases" off. Don't forget your Restrictions passcode.

HT1918 Why do you need my credit card information when I purchase songs from an already purchased Itunes gift card?

Why do you need my credit card information when I purchase songs from an already purchased Itunes gift card? If I cannot purchase goods with the prepuchased gift cards, then the card is useless and I want my money back.

We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
Just because you are being asked to enter your credit card details doesn't mean that it will be charged for your purchases.
Is it a newly created account ? If it is then unless you use the instructions on this page when creating an account then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used in the store : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534

Giftcard bought in another country/do you need a credit Card?

Hi,
I recieved two £15 iTunes gift cards from relavtives in the UK. My account is an Irish one. I try to make a new account but must I give more credit card details to make this new account. alternatively I tried to change my current account in a "United Kingdom" account but then I get promted to re-enter credit card details. I don't have a credit card because I'm only 16. so my two questions are:
* Must you have a credit card to create an i-tunes account???
* Is there any way to make the gift card work on my Irish account when it was bought in the UK???
Thanks in advance,
Harry HT

+Is there any way to make the gift card work on my Irish account when it was bought in the UK???+
Unfortunately, no. You might as well give them back to your UK relatives.
From the gift card FAQ:
+Gift certificates and gift cards purchased on the iTunes Store are valid for use only in the country in which they were purchased.+

Why do you need a credit card when no money due

I recently was trying to add an older 3G IPad to my Verizon account. Went through all the steps online and then went to check out. We currently have 4 phones and 1 other IPad on this account. Anyway everything is fine until I go to check out. The total for this transaction was $0.00 but Verizon still wanted a credit card to complete the transaction. Why would a $0.00 transaction require a credit card. In today's world why would you even want the responsibility of taking that information if no money was due? Furthermore I asked the online chat person why and they said for verification purposes, really a dumb answer as I was logged in to my Verizon account already to do the transaction. Needless to say I did not complete the transaction. I refuse to give out credit card information when there was no money due, especially considering I refuse to have a credit card. Furthermore I am not giving out debit card information that is tied directly to my personal bank account. Note to the people who do your website coding. Don't require a credit card for a $0.00 transaction when the person is already logged in to their Verizon account. Probably not a big deal to Verizon as they only lost the activation fee and the $10 a month charge to have the device plus the possible uptick in data usage. It seems like a really dumb business decision on their part though.

That just doesn't cut it. 1. They were not shipping me anything. 2. I was logged in to my Verizon account which will let me change the whole data limit etc without a credit card. The requirement was nonsensical as I already had the IPad and just wanted to add it as a new device to an already established account with multiple devices. Again Verizon's choice but a really bad business decision to require a credit card for an established account with over 7 years of account history with you guys when you were shipping nothing and their was no money due for this transaction.

Why do you need a credit card # if the app is free

I do not have a valid credit card that I can remember a password for.
What can I do to download
Firefox?

If this is the Firefox home app, it may be a requirement of the iPhone site to enter credit card details. This is not a requirement from Mozilla.

Why do I need a credit card for family sharing?

i would like like to setup family sharing. I have an iPhone my 7year old has just got an iPad, I would like keep tabs on what he try's to download etc but in
the process it says I need a credit card on file. I already have a debit card registered And don't have a credit card. Why is this a problem?

Hello Laujhull,
The reason you need a credit card is that to comply with child online privacy protection laws, the CVV or security code provides parental consent for the purchases that will be made. You will need to do that before continue and you can even switch back to your debit card after you finish the setup. The article below will explain further.

Why do I need a credit card to get a free app

I downloaded a free app without needing credit card. Went to download another and it said I needed to put in credit card info. Why?

If the app also has in-app purchases included, then you need a credit card on file in case you purchase something from within the app.

They need my credit card # for Genius?!

I just want to try out the new genius function but it seems they must have my credit number for me to complete the login. What kind of website forces you to provide your credit card details just to log in?!
poor form apple. poor form.
is this really how it is?

Yeah I think so. Genius is tring to sell you products from the store - so you need a store account for which you need a credit card number.

how to use itunes gift card to buy apps on ipad 2? Do I need a credit card for it?

I'm sorry, but there is nothing that I can do to help you with this situation. I don't know why, but many people have problems when they try to buy gems in the Clash of Clans game. Personally, I wouldn't touch the game with a ten foot pole, but that's just my opinion.
You will have to contact iTunes Store Support and ask for their help. You can email them from here.
