Gift card 25$ won't work

Dear apple user/employe, my name is Laksida and i came across this error.
My friend of sweden bought me a gift card worth of 25$
I tried to redeem it and got this error as i was in the netherlands and it was a swedish card.
then i got his account and tried to redeem it on his account ( his swedish account ) but got again the error it was invalid.
So i checked it at the check gift card balance (swedish) and it says it's valid with 25$ on it.
But it won't redeem on my account, so i had his account and it still didn't let me redeem it.
any help?

You are not speaking to Apple. Gift cards can only be redeemed in the country in which they were purchased. Send it back to your friend. You can't use it ouside of Sweden.

  • TS1292 i have a spanish gift card that won't work with my canadian account. can someone help me solve this

    i found an old gift card that i got with my ipod from spain
    i have a canadian account. when i tried using the gift card it said i couldn't use the spanish gift card with my canadian account. can someone help me solve this problem
    the gift card is 15 euros

    Sorry, but you cannot use that card with a Canadian iTunes Store account. A gift card is valid only in the country of purchase. You'll need to give or sell that card to someone in Spain.

  • HT5556 Hi there I have an iTunes gift card that won't work?

    I have a iTunes gift card but seems it hasn't been activated so unable to redeem it?

    Are you able to try taking it back to the store that you bought it from and ask them to activate it properly ? If not then you will need to try contacting iTunes Support (these are user-to-user forums) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then iTunes Cards And Codes (you will probably need to give them images of the front and back of the card, and possibly its receipt)

  • Added gift card but WON'T work!  Please help!

    Hi all, I hope someone can help me here. I added a $20 iTunes card to the account and it shows the credit beside my username "[email protected]" but whenever I go to buy something it says it is going to charge my credit card and if I click ok then it says that the card is declined... we don't have a credit card... we used to but got rid of it... question is: how do I get it to stop wanting me to pay via credit card and use my $20 balance instead??? I tried saying we have "none" for credit card, I even changed my email adress to a vaild one as the mac.com adress no longer works... can anyone help????? Thanks, Mary

    Yep... that is it... just found that out... I wanted to get apps. That *****! I bought the card JUST for apps... oh well. Thanks so much for the answer! Mary

    Whether you are trying to use a Credit Card or Redeem a Gift Card... My understanding is that you have to be within the US to use the US Store and have a valid US Billing Address.

  • HT5035 gift card balance won't come up when making a purchase - defaults to my visa - why?

    paying by gift card balance won't come up as an option to pay - defaults to my visa - Why and
    how do I use my balance?

    If what you're buying is a gift, it's supposed to do that. If not, the iTunes Store servers are either checking the validity of your account or having trouble; if the credit card gets charged except as noted above, click here and ask the iTunes Store staff for assistance.

  • Verizon's Gift Card Gallery won't open

    So I got an email from Verizon about a new "Perk" called Gift Card Gallery.  I checked it out on Friday.  I'm trying to get back to it today, but it won't work from any browser.  The link is in the bottom right of the Verizon Central page, but all it does is open a new window with the Verizon Central page loaded again.  Anyone else get it to work?

    Upon reflection. I see and experience what you are talking about.
    Endless loops. I sign to My Account, Click the link for the Giff Card Gallery, this takes me back to My Account. Grr.

    If this page doesn't help then you will need to try contacting iTunes support (you will need to give them as much of the serial number and activation code from the card as you can read) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then iTunes Cards And Codes

  • HT1937 Have a AT&T iphone 4 and it will not let me login to the iPhone without a sims card and if you use a AT&T sims card it won't work

    Have a AT&T iphone 4 and it will not let me login to the iPhone without a sims card and if you use a AT&T sims card it won't work

    Define "won't work"...
    You can not activate an iPhone without a SIM. If the phone is carrier locked, you must have a valid Sim from the correct carrier.
    What EXACTLY is the message you're getting?

  • My Samsung Galaxy Camers SD Card just won't work on my iPad via the camera connector - please help!

    Hi, I have a Samsung Galaxy Camera and I try to connect my Micro SDHC card via the iPad camera connector kit.
    This has worked in the past with other memory cards but this is a new one and each time I go to the import option on my photos it says "No Photo"
    I use an adapter to connect the sd card as it's micro, I have tried my other adapter to connect the camera via the lead however the accessory is not supported due to the camera needing more power!
    I have read someone else's post and they suggested to reformat the card, I have used the disc utility to format it however it's saying its FAT32. I can't seem to format my card through my camera either?!
    I'm at a loss as to what I can do and my local Apple store have stopped giving appointments to the Genius Bar so hoping someone here might help me out  
    I want to use my camera at christmas but know the picture upload is going to be a nightmare!!!
    Thanks

    Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive (works the same with an SD card) into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)
