How do I switch my iTunes account to be used in the app store?

Hello,
I am looking to purchase the Aperture 3 app.  I bought a $100.00 itunes card and loaded it into my itunes account.
I was supposed to load it into my App account.
Is there any way I can switch this so I can make my purchase through Itunes?
Many thanks, maxpa1nter in Vancouver Canada.

Hi ..
Just so you are aware, the iTunes and Mac Appp Store are one in the same as far as billing goes. If you redeem an iTunes gift card either at iTunes or the App Store, the balance willl be available from both.
And since you are trying to purchase Aperture, you did post in the correct forum.
You need to take into account any applicable taxes and fees that may be added to the purchase price.
TUNES STORE - TERMS AND CONDITIONS
If there are enough funds available, you should be able to purchase Aperture now.

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • HT204053 How can I switch my iTunes account from US store to Nigeria store?

    How can I switch my iTunes account from US store to Nigeria store?

    If you are asking because you are getting an 'account not in this country' error message then on an iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch try going to the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app on the device and tap on your account id, tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account, and then select the Country/Region section on that screen and select Nigeria.
    If you need to update your address on your account from the US to Nigeria then on your computer's iTunes you should be able to do so by signing into your account via the Store > View Account menu option and updating your address, or on an iOS device you can do it by tapping on your id at the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store similar to above.

  • How do I share one itunes account between two users on the same computer

    How do I share one itunes account between two users on the same computer without taking up twice as much space on my hard drive?

    You would need to move the itunes folder to a location that both users have permissions to access such as the Shared folder or any folder on the root level of the macintosh HD.
    You can find instructions here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1203 This method allows you to share the content without sharing the same library.

  • How do I find out what I have recently purchased for the app store and iTunes I.e films, songs, albums

    How do I find out what I have recently purchased from the app store and iTunes I.e films, songs, albums &amp; apps?>.<

    On your iPad, you can open iTunes and click on Purchases.  Plus, when you purchase something from iTunes, you should get an email with the purchase details to the email you set up as your Apple ID.  They sometimes take a day or two and with the volume of things being purchased with the millions of new iPads out there in the last 3 days, that may be a bit longer.  I keep every receipt I get for future reference.

    Use Internet Recovery. You shouldn't need an AppleID. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4718
    Internet Recovery will install the OS that shipped with the Mac. You can then upgrade to Mavericks if that was not it.
    Do you have an App Store account? Did you ever use it to install the OS?

  • HT204053 How can I remove an apple Id ( hotmail address)which is being used in the app store and iTunes but is actually a blocked account and use a current live account which is now set for mail etc ?

    I have 2 apple iDs ( hotmail accounts) one of which was set up some time ago and not used for awhile in which time it has become blocked. This Id is set up in iTunes and the app store. It is linked to an old email address which is no longer used which means I can't retrieve a code to reactivate. What I want to do is remove this inactive hotmail account and use the other for all access with iTunes, app store, iCloud,mail etc. without losing all apps and credits. Can this be achieved ? My daughter needs the iPad at school and at the moment can't use iCloud and mail and I am scared to add more iTunes credit when there is a problem with this account... I am desperate and have tried everything I know, thanks

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    iTunes and iCloud and different accounts, you will need to delete both accounts from your device before adding the new details in their place.
    For iCloud go to settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit the delete button. You can then sign back in using your correct details. For iTunes go to settings >store, tap your account ID and then sign out, you can then sign back in using your correct Apple ID.

    Thank you for your responses.. To Sjazbec, At least you guys in Germany and the Netherlands have some kind of  posters from Apple to let you know that the feature is not available.
    There is no such warning on the Irish Apple site.!
    My point was that, I would not have even considered trying to reorganize my itunes library had I known that the feature is not available in Ireland.
    And that falls into the domain of Apple Ireland advertising.. which I"m sorry to say is false and misleading.
    There are no "posters" telling the Irish customer that icloud / itunes music is not available!
    I"m not blaming Apple for not "having the feature" in Ireland.. I am upset at them for falsing advertising a feature that they cannot for whatever reason deliver to Irish customers..
    To Keats 2010 LOL... Trust me there were lots of clouds in Ireland today!.. It's a long time since we've seen the sun!.. As for getting your head around the basics.. I could talk you through everything that doesn't work in Ireland if it's any help lol

    I cannot log into either the App Store or iTunes Store, however I can log into the apple website and get on my account there. I've tried to change password several times but nothing. HELP!!

    Re: Trouble connecting to apps and iTune store. 
    Jan 30, 2013 10:29 PM (in response to DonWhite)
    Like so many others, after updating to OS6 and changing my iCloud password, none of my devices (iPhone, iPad, MacBook Pro, iMac etc) could connect to the tunes store, the error message was something "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. Make sure your network connection is active and try again." However, there was nothing wrong with my internet connection - programs like Safari &amp; Mail worked just fine.
    After trawling through the discussions and trying the recommendations (change time/date, activate location services, reset network settings etc) I just became more frustrated.
    I figured that if iTunes thought my network connection was the problem, maybe I should try tricking it and, after much trial, error and frustration, I did find a solution - and it may work for you...
    I turned off WiFi on my iPhone, then connected to my telco's 3G network, then connected to the iTunes store and it worked fine. Then I switched back to WiFi and all is good. Did the same for the iPad. For the MacBook and iMac I turned off WiFi then tethered the iPhone on the 3G network to the computer, then connected to iTunes Store, then went back to WiFi. For some reason that I don't understand, this all went as planned and now everything works.
    Anyway, I thought I should contribute to the community by letting you know the solution I found. Of course, this may not necessarily work for you, but it's worth a shot.

  • My iTunes ID is not recognized by the App Store after downloading Yosemite

    My iTunes ID is not a mac.com id but a hotmail.com id. That is how I have been buying music. Now I need to download updates for the new Yosemite software and the App store is not recognizing my hotmail.com id. How do I clear this up?

    I have the same problem on my iMac.  I was able to download and install OS X 10.10 Yosemite on my macbook pro retina.  i went to my iMac and when I enter my Apple ID and Password (which is correct), it says "Your device or computer could not be verified.  Contact support for assistance".  It won't let me download Yosemite.  FWIW, I can start up iTunes and log in with my Apple ID and Password without any problem.
    Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks!

  • I just bought 2 $15 iTunes cards to buy Lion and the App Store says I have insufficient funds.

    In the app store it says Lion costs 29.99. is there some taxes that I'm not aware of? I have never had a problem redeeming cards for iTunes or the App Store before.

    If there isn't sufficient credit from your iTunes card then the balance is charged to your credit or debit card. If you don't have a credit card setup in your iTunes billing payment information then the purchase will not go through. Yes, taxes do apply depending on your residence.
    Click Account under Quick Links right side of the Mac App Store window.
    Click Edit to the right of Payment Information. If you update your billing info make sure and click Done when you are finished.
