How do I use my account balance

I have a balance on my iTunes & it's not letting me use it. How do I use my balance to pay for a song?

Its because there are taxes with the purchases and so your balance is not going to cover that tax. So you'll need to put another gift card on there or edit your billing info

  • TS1292 I have lost my redeem code for my account balance.  How can I use my account balance for purchases?

    I have an account balance in the Itunes store.  When I try to purchase a book by redeeming part of this balance, the system asks for a Redeem Code.
    I do not have one, nor do I remember ever establishing such a code.  The balance arises from entering a number of previous gift cards which I no longer have.  What can I do to use my account balance?

    Once you redeem an iTunes card or gift certificate you no longer need the code. If you see a credit balance in your iTunes Store account, just go ahead and buy what you want. As long as it's not a gift for someone else, the cost will be automatically deducted from your balance.
    Regards.

  • How do I use my account gift balance?

    I'm feeling a bit dense today. I can see no obvious way to use my account balance from a gift card I entered awhile ago to make a purchase for myself or to give a gift. All iTunes wants to do is charge my card on file. Any assistance appreciated.

    You cannot use a gift card balance to buy a gift.
    If you want to buy something for yourself with your balance, then simply click Buy.  It uses your balance first.

    If you are just visiting Singapore, then leave the account as it is. If you have moved there, then view your account using the iTunes app on a Mac or PC and change the country/region to your current location and address. If you do not have a bank card, you can fund your account using iTunes gift cards if available in Singapore.

    It is not possible to create a new iCloud account using a Windows machine. You must create the account using a Mac (10.7.5 or more) or an IOS device (iPhone etc). Once that is done you can sign into and use the account on your Windows machine.

    Alternately you can create a NEW account using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.

  • My friend gave me ipod touch with all his accounts, i created new accounts but when i went on the appstore and tried to update apps installed by him,i was asked his account's password! i dont know his password.how can i use my account to update apps?

    my friend gave me ipod touch with all his accounts, i created new accounts but when i went on the appstore and tried to update apps installed by him,i was asked his account's password! i dont know his password.how can i use my account to update apps?

    You can't.  Apps and really all content purchased/downloaded through one Apple ID is forever tied to that Apple ID.  In the case of Apps they will always request that Apple ID to update as they are licensed to that Apple ID.
    In reality, the Apps were licensed to that Apple ID by the developer.  And cannot simply be given away to you for you to use.
    He should have wiped the iPod clean so you could set it up for your use without any of his accounts or purchased content as you are not really licensed to any of those Apps.
    Your friend should have followed this support document before giving the iPod to you:

  • How can I use two accounts ?

    How can I use two accounts (mine and my wife's) to PhotoStream to my mac? I have to turn off photo stream for one or the other...can't I just leave two accounts logged on so that the photos from my iphone and hers both go to my mac?

    Photostreaming across machines requires to use the same Apple-ID on all of these machines or devices. Share all of iclouds account stuff or nothing at all . No way around as icloud is designed that way. Photostream is not designed as a sort of gallery to share with outsiders. It is for your personal entertainment .

    im having trouble changing my security questions, they are from years ago so i do not remember them and the reset email is no longer active.., and i dont know how i can use the account because i added money to it but it asks for the questions. anybody help??
    this says it all..

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Contact Apple through iTunes Store Support, and explain that you have forgotten your 3 security questions, that you can reset your password, but doing so doesn't reset your security questions.
    Remember, support will receive hundreds, if not thousands of requests per day, some from people trying it on, others with little explanation and others that are written extremely poorly. Take the time to explain your situation properly, be precise and concise, brief but comprehensive.
