How do I get a gift card balance in iTunes to apply to the App Store on the ipad?

I entered a gift card into iTunes and still have a remaining balance. I want to know how to apply this balance towards the purchase of apps in the App Store.

Open the App Store on your iPad.  Scroll all the way to the bottom in the "Featured" tab.  You should see your Apple ID there.  It may indicate that you have that credit balance.  If not, click the Apple ID button you see there and sign in if necessary and then click "View Apple ID".  You should see the credit balance.
It will apply to your app (or iTunes music) purchases automatically.

    How do I get a gift card or code

    iTunes gift cards aren't available in all countries, and they are country-specific - they can only be used in their country of issue. If they are available in your country then you might be able to buy them Apple, and/or from electrical stores, supermarkets etc

    Hello there, AniChirglyan.
    The following Knowledge Base article talks a little about the purchasing order of items through the iTunes Store.
    iTunes Store: How iTunes Store purchases are billed
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5582
    iTunes may still ask you for information from your card on file if that information has lapsed or needs updating. The card information on file has to be correct, no matter what purchasing option you will be exercising for this purchase.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,

  • How do I use my gift card balance

    I followed directions and clicked on the Redeem button.  I entered my card number.  I show a $100 balance.  When I try to purchase music, it only takes me to my credit card information.  There appears to be no way to pay with my gift card balance.  How do I purchase music on iTunes with a gift card?

    You still need to confirm the credit card information that is associated with your account. Once you do that when you make a purchase it will be taken from the gift card amount. The most common bit of information you need to confirm is the security code for the CC.

  • How do i use my gift card balance to pay for a purchase?

    I redeemed my gift card and it shows the balance by my name in the top right hand corner but when I select a song to purchase, it wants me to enter my security code on my credit card instead of using the gift card balance.

    This is how itunes verifies your account.

  • How do I transfer a gift card balance to family members in family share

    Ok well I just realized that the account associated with my Family share will only access my credit card and not my gift card balance.
    I had two $100 gift cards which I redeemed into my account thinking we could all share the gift card.  Little did I know that only I can use the balance.
    I know I can just purchase the app or the song and then they can download it for free but it's a pain in the butt if I'm not home to do this.  Is there anyway I can transfer the funds to my wife and kids??  Oh and to top it off I've since thrown away the original gift cards so there is no way to remove the funds and place them back on the cards.   Thanks in advance!

    Open the App Store on your iPad.  Scroll all the way to the bottom in the "Featured" tab.  You should see your Apple ID there.  It may indicate that you have that credit balance.  If not, click the Apple ID button you see there and sign in if necessary and then click "View Apple ID".  You should see the credit balance.

  • Can't get a gift card balance

    OS 10.6.8
    Safari 5.1.10
    Firefox 12.0.2
    Sophos AV 9.1.5
    Have a gift card from Lowes.  Want to see the balance.  Went to their gift card site and input number, pin, and captcha.  Received message "Invalid information entered.  Try again."  This occurs on both Safari and Firefox, so it might be an OS problem or an extension. I called Lowes, and they are able to retrieve the information using the same input number, pin and a captcha, but they are using Windows and, I assume, IE.   I need a procedure to troubleshoot this situation on my Mac and am at a loss as to what to do next.  Anybody have any ideas? 

    You do not need to code once redeemed.

  • In app purchases payment type - gift card, loaded in itunes but not found in app

    So I just bought two $50 gift cards and loaded successfully. But when trying to purchase in-app, it wont accept payment type (credit card is maxed, hence the gift card in the first place). And so I changed the payment type to "none" in settings, but now it says insufficient funds. How do I spend the gift card monies in the app ?

    Do what it told you to do.

  • How can i get a memory card out if i inserted it in the wrong place?

    I was entering a memoery card into my mac when i accidently pushed it in to the CD opening instead of the one right under it that is for memoery cards out of cameras. Now the memoery card is stuck in there and i tried everything but i cant get it out. if any one has any suggestions on what i should do please reply back!!!!

    If the card does not come out of the optical drive when you turn the iMac on its side and gently shake it you have a problem.  Some users have reported success by inserting a thin piece of card into the drive to dislodge the memory card but you risk damaging the optical drive mechanism/optics or pushing the card in further.
    It will be an expensive repair as it will not be covered by warranty.  It may be cheaper to 'write-off' the internal drive and by an external OEM USB drive.  Do not buy an Apple Superdrive as it will not work.

  • How to I get my Edge animations to work in Content viewer on the ipad?

    I've created several animation in Animate, they preview fine in the browser. I have placed them into InDesign, they preview fine on the desktop. I upload the to view via the ADobe Content Viewer on my ipad - nothing. I have tried using the Web Content route and placing the html file, still nothing. I've checked for updates of everything and appear to be up to date. Need help!

    On an iOS device, or on a computer without iTunes installed on it, you can view your last 90 days purchases (and optionally contact iTunes Supportif you have a problem with a purchase) via http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    You can only view your full purchase history (not just the last 90 days) via a computer's iTunes : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option, you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it, click on that and you should then see a list of your purchases
