How do I use the money on my iTunes account instead of the credit card on family share

I have money on my iTunes account from a gift card, but how do I use that money instead of the credit card on the family share account. Every time I try to make a purchase asked for the security code for the credit card instead of just using the money on my account.

Buy stuff.
If you are asking about getting the cash value out, it is not possible.  The credit balance can only be used for purchases in the iTunes Store.

  • HT201195 The game i am trying to buy content for keeps trying to use my credit card balance instead of my iTunes credit amount, how can I use the money on my iTunes account instead of trying to debit my credit card?

    I am trying to buy content on my iPad but it keeps trying to debit a maxed out credit card instead of the balance I have on my iTunes account, how can I switch the option to debit the iTunes account instead?

    That is what I don't understand. I will maybe take a trip out to apple store to see what they say.  Funny thing is it let me buy the iOS app with no problems. When I went to the Mac App Store it wanted credit card info. I have working with Macs for many years and I have never had this happen. I will let you what I find out

    If you bought an Apple gift card, then you cannot use it in the iTunes store.  You can only use it in the Apple store for hardware.
    You would need an iTunes gift card to buy anything in iTunes

  • How can I use an iPad with two itunes accounts?

    How can I use an iPad with two itunes accounts?
    Hi there
    My partner has a works iPad, which has her works Apps on (ones that are specifically made by her company and are NOT available in the App store).
    What I want to be able to do is to ALSO have my itunes account on there so that I can put all the apps I have purchased previously from my iPhone on it.
    This is so I can put on VLC player (thats already in my itunes account) so I can add videos to the iPad.
    How do I do this please?
    I tried it before by connecting it to my mac, but it wiped everything off the iPad completely and also deleted the data settings for using 3G.
    So I want to avoid this happening again the future as it had to be sent back to her head office to be sorted again.
    Any advise please?
    Thanks

    You can't. The iPad is desgined to be a 'one user' device and only really works with one apple ID at a time.
    The only way would be if she, at work and with her work apple id, downloaded your apps (repurchasing them of course).
    It's not meant to be a multiple user/multiple ID device.

  • How can I put my money from my iTunes account into an iTunes gift card

    I purchase an $20 iTunes card and put the money in my ITunes account and brought what I needed now I would like to put the rest of the money back into the card so I can give it to my friend. My question is how can I transfer the money from my account into the iTunes gift card

    You can't. Once any part of the balance has been spent, the remainder can't be put back onto the card or otherwise transferred to another person(aside from Apple itself) through any means.

  • How can I use music from two different iTunes accounts?

    how can I use music from two different iTunes accounts?

    If you mean iTunes Store accounts, there's really nothing for you to do. Just add the tracks to the iTunes library and play them. Music purchased prior to late-2009 will been to be authorized, though. Pull down Store > Authorize... and type the credentials of the Apple ID used to buy the tracks.
    If you mean something else, please describe in more detail.

  • HT2589 the first time you create account, always need a credit card? the option of "NONE" is hidden

    the first time you create account, always need a credit card? the option of "NONE" is hidden
    my friend cant download apps, because of that reason.

    No you don't always need to enter credit card details, it just depends upon how you create the account - unless the instructions on this page are followed when creating a new account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    then you will need to entercredit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store.
    If you don't have or don't want to enter credit card details then you will need to create a new account, and this time use the instructions on that HT2534 page when creating it. If you want to use the same email address then you will need to replace it on that account first e.g. by logging into it via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes or via http://appleid.apple.com

  • I have Apple TV.  Today I rented a movie to watch on it.  It took the money from my itunes account but it will not play.  Every time I try to play it flashes error occurred while downloading and to try again later.  I have unplugged everything and no luck

    I have Apple TV.  Today I rented a movie to watch on it.  It took my money from my itunes account.  It keeps saying that a problem occurred while downloading.  It also says to try again later.    I have turned off and I have unplugged but nothing works.  What do I need to do?

    Something like this happened to me, where something went wrong on Apple's end and a movie I rented wouldn't play. I contacted Apple over the phone and they gave me back my money and fixed the problem for future use.

    How do I get my money back on a in-app purchase
    I didn't receive anything and it deducted from my iTunes account

    Does the app have an IAP download option in that allows you to download them and/or does the developer's website have any info on it about what to do ? If not then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • HT201209 Why can't i use my money in my itunes account?

    I entered my new iTunes gift card into the iTunes store and once i go to use it, it asks for my credit card billing information. Do i need to fill that out to be able to use the card?

    Gift cards are country-specific, so US gift cards can only be used in the US on US-based iTunes accounts. Do you know anybody in the US that you could sell or give the card to ?

  • Help - I can't access the money in my itunes account

    I have redeemed an itunes card and currently have $15 on my account. It is my understanding that when I make purchases at the itunes store, this amount will be credited automatically until the amount is back to 0 and then billing would go back to my other payment method (paypal or credit card). However, I have made a couple of purchases on the account and the $15 has not declined. Rather the amounts are being charged to my other payment method. What am I missing here?

    If you are in Canada and you purchase Apps from the App store, iTunes will only charge your CC.
    You cannot use gift card amounts to purcahse Apps.
