How can I change an "apple store gift card" into an "iTunes gift card"?

It recently was my birthday and so I got a 50$ apple gift card via email. I dont want a apple gift card though. I want an itunes gift card. I have tried to redeem both the PIN number and the Gift Card Number in itunes. Sadly this doesnt work.
Please help me find were (or if) I can change the apple card into an iTunes card!
Exta info:
The email was sent to my secondary mail account. This account does not have an open iTunes account and I would like to keep it that way. I would like to use the apple giftcard on my primary account.

I know that I can do that. I don't feel like spending any of my money or going and buying another card. I also doubt that im ever going to need more than 50 bucks on itunes. Im asking for a solution that doesnt require much effort, nor money, nor time. Also most stores sell iTunes gift cards, not just apple stores. And I do have a credit card... but thats beside the point.

    hi guys
    how can I change my apple store? Im living in Australia but my Apple store is in Brazil

    In order to use the Australian Store you will need either a bank card from an Aussie bank with a verifiable Aussie billing address or you will need to redeem an Aussie iTunes Gift card.
    Launch iTunes and go to the iTunes Store
    Click on “Account” and log in, under “Apple ID Summary” choose “Change Country or Region”
    Select the new country as desired

  • How can I change my apple registry to Canadian from US?

    I received my ipod while in the US and set it up there so I could use it for the months before I went home to Canada.
    But now at home I cannot access any Canadian apps ( like my bank) because it's a 'US' ipod.
    How can I change the apple registry to reflect my actual country?

    No reason to restore yoou iPod. Just:
    - Edit you Apple ID/iTunes account account to associate it with Canada. Make sure the payment method is associated with Canada. the usually means the billing address for credit cards and when iTunes gift cards were purchased. You can only used gift cards in the country's stores in when they were purchased (you can use a USA card in the Canadian iTunes/App Store).
    - If you have an outstanding balance from a USA gift card you have to get rid of it before you can purchase  items

  • I have some apps on my iPad that were installed using an old apple ID. They can't be updated because the old ID is no longer valid. How can I change the apple ID associated with these apps?

    I installed some apps using an apple I'd that is no longer active. I can't update them because it asks for the password of the old I'd instead of the I'd I currently use. How can I change the apple I'd associated with these apps? I still want to use them. One app I paid for using the old I'd. The other app is free. I have already tried deleting them and reinstalling them.

    If you simply just changed the email associated with that appleid you can just delete and Re-download the apps.
    You can verify  the above step by going to the App Store on device > Updates>Purchased - if you see the app there just delete it from the home screen and redownload from the purchased section
    Now if you got rid of that account entirely, you will have to delete and re-purchase on your new account

    Hello Emilaine
    To change countries of the iTunes Store, go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID: > View Apple ID > Country/Region. From there it is a matter of picking the U.K. Store and you should be good.

  • How can we change the Apple ID on our iPad to another owner?

    How can we change the Apple ID on our iPad to another owner?

    Settings->iTunes and App Stores->Apple ID->Sign Out     Sign in with another Apple ID.
    However all Apps purchased with the previous ID will be forever tied to it and will always require it to update.
    So if you plan on changing owners its better to wipe the iPad clean, and let the new owner set it up from scratch.
    Settings->General->Reset->Erase All Content and Settings will put the iPad back to the way it was when it was first taken out of the box.
