Gift cards to another country?

Hello
I want to send a gift to the son of a friend in Denmark (I live in Italy). Is there anyway that this can be done?
I can only purchase vouchers usable on the Italian store and this is totally useless to a Danish teenager!
Is it really possible that I cannot purchase a gift voucher redeemable in another country?
help!

App/itunes gift card from another country

Hi
For Christmas I was given an app/itunes gift card by a friend, the card was purchased in italy. Now I have just tried to enter the code and guess what? it tells me i cannot redeem it cos my store is Uk not Italy. If i try to change it to Italy it tells me I have to register with an italian bank account and address. How is this possible that i cant use an apple card on the apple store??? is there anyway to change this??? i have to say this is truly ridiculous...
any suggestions are welcome...

OK you have 2 options lets say for example you live in the UK and the iTunes card is from the USA.
option 1) go to eBay and sell the card to someone in the USA.
option 2) use the itunes card.
if option 2 you will need to use the following steps
1) Move to the USA <------- This is just so you are following Apples rules ;-)
2) you will need a USA iTunes account, now that you live there so make a new Apple ID. To do this go to https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/wa/createAppleId?loca lang=en_US and the 1st thing you are going to want to do is go to the bottom of the page and make sure that next to "Choose Your Country or Regin" you have the US flag (or what ever flag matches the place you just moved to to use the card) if it doesnt then click on it and change it. Put in all info to setup the account, (if for some reason you cant remember the address of the place you just moved into then use google maps). if you dont get an option to make an iCloud email address then you can make a Gmail account and use that as your new Apple ID.
3) you have now moved and made a new iTunes account you can now use your gift card. You will have access to the content in your new country and it will be at their prices.
4) if you want content from both accounts, I assume you already have content purchased from your old account then login to your iTunes/iPhone/iPad with 1 account and download what you own then logout and login with your second account.
enjoy and good luck getting your green card, hopefully the place the iTunes card came form is nice ;-)

I received a gift card from another country

I received a gift card from Belgium, I can't redeem the voucher
HELP!

No, you can't. Send it back to the giver with thanks and tell them that gift cards can only be used in the country where they were originally sold.

HT5622 Redeeming Gift Cards from another country?

My daughter has been given an Apple gift cert bought in Ireland but her ID is UK store based, it states that she needs a new ID to use the Ireland store front. Which she moved to but it asked her to set up a new ID. If she has two ID's surely she will have two sets of music in two different locations?
Any ideas on how she can redeem this inot her UK iTunes ID so she can manage her music & videos in one location?
Thanks

- You can only use the iTunes/App store in the country you are located. An iTunes gift card can only be redeemed in the same country's store in which the card was purchased.
- If she is in Ireland then shed can redeem the card into her existing account.existing . However, if she still has a balance for the UK store she has to remove that balance before she can change country store and redeem the Ireland card.

HT2309 I need info on how to use a SIM card from another country to have service on iPhone 4 & 5 while traveling

I need to know any problems I might have getting a SIM card in another country and swapping it w current card in my iPhones (4 and 5).
Need both phone and internet access while there. My carrier has no service (verizon)
Also assume all apps and data on phones will still work?

The GSM section of your Verizon iPhone 5 is unlocked and will work with any nano-SIM card.
Not all iPhone features such as FaceTime, iMessage, visual voicemail, etc, may work if using a carrier that doesn't support iPhones. If using an unofficial carrier, you may need to enter APN settings to get cell data. LTE may not be compatable.

What can I do if I have a new iTunes card, but still money left on an iTunes card from another country? The money I have left isn't enough to buy anything and iTunes won't let me change country until I have used all the money!

Can you transfer a gift card from one country to another?

I used to live in New Zealand and a friend gave me a $50 gift card before I left as a going-away present. I currently live in the United States and am unable to use this gift card. Is there any way I could transfer the 50 New Zealand dollars into the equivalent amount of United States dollars (about 41 US dollars)? I would not like to see $50 go to waste.
Is there any way at all for me to use this money?

Gift Cards are only valid in Country of issue.

Purchasing a gift card by changing country in iTunes

Hi, I am located in Switzerland (before I was located in Argentina). I would like to buy a gift card for a friend and send it by email to him.
I understand I can only buy gift cards to be used from the store I am buying them from. But I noticed that if I go to the bottom right corner of the itunes Store screen I can change te country back to Argentina. If I do this and then purchase a gift card there will I be buying the gift card in the Argentinean store? Will my friend be able to use it?
The idea is to do this and afterwars change the itunes store again back to Switzerland.
Did anybody tried this?
Thanks in advance

a) If I am in the borders of that country or not its a detail that Apple nor nobody could ever check.
Sure they can. IP address ranges are all assigned by country, so it's easy to check whether your computer is in a given country. Whether Apple does so is something they keep quiet.
b) I have a credit card from Argentina and another from Switzerland.
c) I have a billing address from Argentina and from Switzerland.
What you say is that I should have an Apple account exclusively to be used within Argentina to be able to give to my friends iTunes cards in Argentina and another one in Switzerland in case I want to buy an iTunes Gift Card in Switzerland? Just changing the itunes store country wont do the trick?
You can't change away from the country in which your payment method is established. So you would indeed need two separate iTunes Store accounts, one set up in Argentina with your Argentine credit card and another set up in the Swiss iTunes Store with the Swiss credit card if you wish to buy from both countries, and according to the terms of use of the iTunes Store, you agree not to even attempt to use any country's Store from outside of that country.
Today I was in a supermarket and there is no sign in the itunes gift card they sell saying that the card wont be usable in an account that is from outside Switzerland. And if it says something as a foreginer who doesnt speaks the local language (French or German), I wouldnt know what it says about it. I would assume that every itunes card in everypart of the world would be usable for any itunes account.
I can't read the text on the back of that card from your photo, and I haven't looked at an English card recently to see the text given, but your assumption is incorrect. Gift cards and gifts make through the iTunes Store are valid only in the country whose iTunes Store they were give through or in which the card was sold. That's the way its been since the beginning of gifting in the iTunes Store. The terms for gift cards in the Apple Store make it very clear that cards are indeed valid only in the country of purchase.
Regards.

HT2736 Gift Card in another currency

I purchased a £ Gift Card for my brother in law for his birthday. He lives in NZ and can't redeem it. How can we fix this?
Thanks

Gift cards are only valid in their country of issue, so if it's a UK gift card then it can only be used in the UK with a UK iTunes account - so your brother in law won't be able to use it in New Zealand.

Can I transfer unused redeemed gift cards to another apple id?

I purchased and redeem a 25$ gift card into my apple id.
I want to transfer it to another apple id or maybe put it back to the original gift card and give it to someone else.
Is this possible?

Not on your own. Click here and ask the iTunes Store staff to put it back onto the card; they'll only do this if none of the balance has been spent.
