Help using itunes in mini ipad

Hi,
I have bought $200 itunes and am trying to use them on a new mini ipad, but it asks for my credit card security 3 digit code to proceed.
I no longer have the credit card, what can I do?
Thanks

Well you're not alone in getting surprised by that Mac requirement. Apple has never much flinched about backward compatability. Their new OS's often leave the past completely behind, unlike Windows which tries to keep old things running through the updates (which isn't always a good thing, mind you). Apple's MO makes for a cleaner, more stable transition but it does force you to make decisions. Get the latest and abandon old programs, or soldier on with the old ways and forget about using anything new. I think you'll be glad you chose to upgrade. I just wish Apple (as well as Microsoft) would make these ultimately necessary upgrades cheaper!

    To use itunes 10.7 you need to have Snow Leopard operating system installed
    These are the system requirements
    System Requirements:
    Mac computer with an Intel processor
    1GB of memory
    5GB of available disk space
    DVD drive for installation
    Some features require a compatible internet service provider: fees may apply.
    If you can run Snow Leopard you need to purchase it

  • Using iTunes and the iPad in the classroom

    One of the schools that I support in our school district recently purchased two iPads.  We need to establish iTunes accounts that do not have a payment method associated with them.  We have setup the devices and are looking forward to downloading FREE apps from the iTunes store.  We have attempted to create our Apple ID in two different manners:
    1.  Go directly to iTunes on the iPad and select a free app.  Click download.  Prompted to setup an account.  Was not presented with the "none" option for payment.
    2.  Went directly into the iPad settings to "iTunes and App Store."  Again, no "none" option for payment.
    Our department does not have access to a credit card nor a gift card due to funding.  I would appreciate any help that the iTunes department can provide to me about how to properly setup these iPads so that our students can utilize them in the classroom.
    Regards,
    Matt

    Greetings fcit@!A,
    After reviewing your post, it sounds like you are not able to select none as your payment type. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
    Why can’t I select None when I edit my Apple ID payment information? - Apple Support
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,

  • HT1212 I am unable to get my iPad to connect to computer using iTunes. The iPad screen shows cable must be connected to computer when the cable is already connected. Please advise

    Endless trouble after downloading IOS7 ON BOTH IPHONE AND MINI IPAD. It takes almost 4 minutes to write and send SMS where it used to take 90 seconds on IOS6. My ipad wanted a passcode after installing IOS7 and I never knew what the passcode was and accidentally disabled my ipad. I tried to reinstall using ITUNES, following all instructions carefully. I t took nearly 3 hours downloading before telling me that my ipad could not connect to ITUNES as my ipad disabled.I have followed all the instructions to connect the ipad to my computer and the screen of ipad shows that I must connect to itunes although my cable is connected to my computer and ipad. I am desperate, any advice.

    I understand but like the article says:
    If you see one of following alerts, you need to erase the device:
    "iTunes could not connect to the [device] because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the [device] before it can be used with iTunes."
    "You haven't chosen to have [device] trust this computer"

  • Using iTunes/Ipod mini on multiple computers (many questions)

    Hello I recently purchased another computer for myself. I would like to use iTunes and my ipod mini on this computer but I would also like to continue to use it on my family's main pc. Is this possible? Do I have to worry about that deauthorization of computers, or the license, or is it fine to use on two pcs? I just don't know how all that stuff works but I think I remember something about having iTunes on one pc only.
    Now for the second part of my questions. How do I actually go about transfering iTunes and my ipod to another pc? Do I just install iTunes like normal and transfer my files using an external hard drive? My family pc will remain as the main one for now but eventually I'll switch it to my laptop. I don't care about playlists and song ratings because I don't bother with that. What I want to do is simply have the music that's on my family pc put onto my laptop. I have bought an external hard drive so I could transfer the music without much problems.
    Finally can I switch between my laptop and home pc? I mean can I use my mini from my laptop and then later update it from my home pc and do other things like that. I'll use the songlist from my home pc for now but eventually my laptop will become my main one. I know I read something about clicking no if I want to change the music library when plugging in my ipod to another pc. Do I have to keep both iTunes updated to the same version and the songlist the same? I'm wondering if there will be any conflicts between the two.
    I'm sorry about how confusing this all is and the many questions I have but I hope somebody can help out. Thank you.

    hi Gerhard!
    you can authorise up to five PCs at one time:

    this Buegie post is an excellent resource on moving your itunes to a different computer:
    http://discussions.apple.com/click.jspa?searchID=-1&messageID=2231034
    and these resources should be helpful with managing the mini from different computers:

    Copying music between authorized computers with iTunes for Windows

  • Tried restoring my new ipad using itunes.   "The ipad "ipad" could not be restored.  an unknown error occurred(1611).  What now?

    Tried restoring my new ipad.  ipad could not be restored.  error 1611.  What now

    I just had the same problem but managed to restore by:
    - Download latest version of iTunes.
    - Right- mousebutton on the iTunes-icon and choose "administrator"
    - Use usb for ipad (docking).
    - Use usb directly into pc, mac. Don't use from screen.
    - When iTunes is "preparing iPad for restore" and the apple-symbol appears (that was the moment my iPad stopped to continue the restore), then push the rest and start button once at the same time. My iPad started to restore.
    Good luck!

  • HT201210 I tried to update my ipa to OS7 and now it's stuck on an itunes screen.  I don't even use itunes on this ipad.  I hae tried restring and it doesn't work.  What should I do?

    I tried updating my ipad to OS7.  Now it is frozen on an itunes screen.  I dont even use itunes on this devie.  I have tried restoring but nothing works.  Any suggestions?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • No album Artwork using iTunes Match on iPad mini

    iTunes Match is enabled on my iPad mini (iOS 6.0.1), but no album artwork appears. My album artwork is synced with iTunes Match and appears on my iPhone 4S (iOS 6.0.1), but does not appear in the music app on my iPad. I have tried turning iTunes Match on and off, and have downloaded various albums successfully to my iPad, yet the artwork never appears. Does anyone know a solution to this problem? Thanks!

    Does this problem extend beyond Match users? I have been trying all kinds of ways to get our music onto my wife's Mini but the artwork just isn't coming across, for about 70% of the material in our iTunes library. We don't use Match.
    I lost an immense amount of "Album Artwork" in the transition to iTunes 11, and had to reimport all that art one album at a time. I thought I had everything squared away after that, but when the music is copied to the Mini, artwork disappears again, and I can't find a way to "get album artwork" on the Mini itself.

  • Help; Using iTunes match to transfer from iPad to new PC

    Regarding iTunes match. My PC crashed and the only other place I have my library is on my iPad (shame on me). I bought iTunes match last night to upload my library from my iPad so I could get it onto my new PC, but when I went to turn Match on in my iPad, it said it will delete over my existing library and replace it with songs in the cloud.  I DO NOT WANT THIS to happen! The iPad is the place I want to transfer FROM.  Of course my purchases are there in the cloud, but Match is for sharing/transferring all music, including burned cd collections, which is the majority of what I have. I don't dare turn on Match unless I know that my music library (and burned cd collection) on the iPad will FIRST be uploaded to the cloud and THEN written over.  It says this nowhere on Apple pages.  Please please help.

    Hi,
    iiTunes match scans your library on your computer not your ipad. So you will need to transfer your music from your ipad to your computer. If your music has not been added to your computers library, you are likely to lose music on your ipad.
    You will need an app to do the transfer. This doc may help Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device

  • Can I get around having to use iTunes for my iPad?

    In short, I really dislike the software. It does nothing I want it to do and everything I don't want it to do.
    What can I do to avoid the requirement of gunking up my laptop with the bloatware that is iTunes? Is there any alternative? Jailbreaking is most likely not an option.

    Apple products in general are very locked down and controlled- not entirely safe but one has difficulty getting beyond what the designers want you to be able to do - especially on a tablet or phone where there is little space for competition. Hence the term jail-breaking comes into play. Steve Gibson of Security Now at TWIT.TV said he could hardly wait to get his hands on one of the new iphones to see how long it would take him to get around the fingerprint  "security" feature. But he is an expert. 
    Freedom comes with some risks of wading into deep water, but is available in Surface Pro. And  for the courageous who want control in their own hands with Open Source there are Android tablets, phones. And there are other systems - mostly sold in the UK and China - where one can do whatever one has in mind to do if one is clever enough.. It makes me feel very old but the last products mentioned are often used by the school kids in places like China and the UK. . they become really good programmers.
    Microsoft products are typically designed for business use where people want some level of control, want efficiency to do what they want to do, and are willing to learn a little bit more to be able to do that. Typically speed, flexibility, and compatibility are more important than games, songs or movies. One wants to download customized information from the internet - articles, journals, newspapers and one wants access to the company data, memos, manuals and a way to post email, photos, some compact videos to a few key people (not the world).
    IT people at companies wish to keep things locked down and easier/cheaper to manage so it is always a bit of a struggle to do your own thing. That you are annoyed with the waste of space and lack of control tells me you are either an exec, or will soon be one if you find workarounds. Chances are others are having the same difficulties in your company. Develop a realtionship with the IT people -- if they know you have a need for something they will sometimes help you to get it. So make a little specific list of what you don't like and what gets in your way,  and see what they can do for you.
    Some really good reviews of  available products of most brands, what they will and won't do, can be found through the programs at TWIT.TV.  Tech News Today is a good place to jump in... one can get the programs via streaming or podcasts so one has a choice if a TV connection is not convenient or available. http://twit.tv/
    My personal pet peeve with the newer products is the "gallery view" where everything is tiles and carousels. Ugh. Dizzying at best. I like a list tucked into a small space, I don't mind using a stylus and I really loved my  Axim 5 PDA with the touch screen (now obsolete but dang, it still works if "they" would just upgrade the software to new protocols - LOL). Even Netflix has done away with their wonderful sortable lists and moved over to tiling... Ugh. When I want a movie I want to be able to mine for it fast based on my own criteria, not to have to wade through many screens full of images with little or no info.

  • Help using iTunes in Parallels/ Wndows XP

    My mini mac is a Mas OS 10.4 (need 10.5 for iPad) so I thought maybe I could try to use parallels with Windows XP. ANyone have any ideas how I can do it? When I plug in teh IPad to the USB it only recognizes teh Mac even though I tell it to open with the virtual machine. Help!

  • Help using digital AV adapter iPad to LCD TV.(picture ratio)

    Hello everyone!
    I've recently decided to use my iPad 3 generation, to connect to my TV LG 47 ACL using an Apple Digital AV adapter, the adapter has got two 30 pins and 1 HDMI cable. It kinda works, it only shows half the picture ratio projected from the iPad on 1/3 of the tv screen. I originally thought this would be a TV>remote>picture>aspect ratio setting,  but after playing with the setting; still only 1/3 of the iPad is projected onto the TV. I was hoping if anyone knew of any solutions to using the digital AV adapter to get full screen coverage on this type of TV would be helpful.
    Thanks!

    The other port is the iPad 30 pin connector, just like the one that this adapter plugs into on your iPad. It is there so that you can charge the iPad at the same time that you are using it with HDMI.
