HT1689 What happened to my App gift cards?

I redeemed two App gift cards on my iPad and neither card is showing up in my account.  I have searched and can not find information on this subject.  Has anyone had this problem?  If so, where did you go to fix the problem?  Any advise is appreciated.

Go to Settings>General>Restrictions and see if the restriction that hides the App store/prevent purchases is set.

    What happens to my apps, iTunes card, and iCloud storage if I change my Apple ID?

    Depends upon what you mean by change.
    If you update your existing account to have a new primary email address then you shouldn't lose any of the account's past purchases, balance, or iCloud storage - you may have to log out of the old version of your account by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in with the updated version, and similarly for iCloud (Settings > iCloud > Sign Out).
    If you create a new account then your existing account's purchases, balance and iCloud storage will remain tied to the existing account, you can't transfer them to a new account or merge the new account with the old one.

  • After upgrading what happens to the apps on my 3G?

    I just received my iPhone 4 and put my backup from my iPhone 3G on. It works fine, and there is no more AT&T service on my iPhone 3G. I intend to use the 3G as an iPod Touch. I understand the SIM card needs to stay in the phone for this, even though it is not activated with AT&T.
    What happens to the apps that are still on my 3G? They are still working. I assume they will stay there until I need to sync. Then I will have to set up a new iTunes account, under a unique computer user name, for the 3G and buy the apps all over again for the 3G.

    Nope, the apps stay there until you delete them.
    I currently sync 2 iPhones and 2 iPod Touch units all to one iTunes store account, and per the Apple licensing, they all can run apps I have purchased. I had a similar question as you when I first started using multiple devices, so I sent an email to the app author for the app I wanted most to do this with. His response was that this is Apple's terms, so if I didn't want to purchase a second license to use his app on a second device, then I didn't need to (but he wouldn't stop me if I wanted to either). In the end, I found this app author to be very dedicated to his app, and very responsive to my comments/requests, so I did purchase a second copy of his app (yes, I had my wife create an iTunes account and purchase it under her account).

  • Apps, Gift Cards and Canada - is purchasing now allowed?

    I have heard that gift cards can now be used to buy apps in Canada from the App Store. I can't find the paragraph in the terms of service that disallows it.
    Has anybody tried it?

  • HT4461 mac apps gift card

    Can the mac apps gift card be used for the purchase of an ipad mini?

    No, it is only good for the content available in the iTunes and Mac App Stores. You may not use it to make purchases in the Apple Store.

  • HT4461 Can I use my App Gift Card to purchase I-tunegift cards

    Can I use my App Gift card to purchase Itune Gift Card?

    No, you can't.
    Your iTunes and Mac App Store accounts are the same account. You can buy whatever you want, iTunes content or Mac App Store content, it's all interchangeable. There is no need to buy iTunes cards with App cards.

  • What happens to my apps when I switch iCloud accounts on my phone?

    I'm trying to switch the iCloud accounts from an old one that's acting up to a new one that I've created. When I started to, though, I got worried because it said something about Documents as I tried to delete the iCloud account that was already there.
    When you change the iCloud acconts on your phone, what happens to your apps?
    1.Are they all deleted?
    2. If not, do they just stay and never get updated, or do they all reset?
    3. Is there any way I can transfer the purchases to my new iCloud so that I don't have to buy them again?

    Depends upon what you mean by change.
    If you update your existing account to have a new primary email address then you shouldn't lose any of the account's past purchases, balance, or iCloud storage - you may have to log out of the old version of your account by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in with the updated version, and similarly for iCloud (Settings > iCloud > Sign Out).

  • HT201272 How can I tell what was purchased on my gift card?

    How can I tell what was purchased on a gift card?

    sussan-b,
    Does the bar showing used space have a portion labeled "Other"?
    Usually other is files that have been copied to the iPod directly, or space you have told the iPod to reserve for other files by enabling disk use.

    I bought a Mac for education last month. However, i did not receive any app gift card. Where can i get it?

    The gift card was from Apple and on campus venders. If you bought the Mac from someone else, then you didn't qualify. If you did buy from Apple or an official on campus Apple partner, speak directly to them.

  • Apps gifted with app gift card

    How come if I have purchased gift cards and have money to redeem at App Store it won't allow me to gift an app? That can't be legal surely. If I was to use my credit card they would be paid, I have money sitting to be redeemed but can't use it to gift an app.....wonder what consumer affairs would think of this ridiculous system?

    Yes it is perfectly legal.

    Additional Information
    Note: When purchasing an iTunes Gift, a valid credit card must be on file; you cannot purchase an iTunes Gift with store credit. Purchased gifts cannot be redeemed outside of the country of purchase. For example, an iTunes Gift purchased in France cannot be redeemed on an iTunes Store outside of France. You can contact Apple Support to cancel an iTunes Gift up to two days before scheduled delivery.

  • OTL -What happens to the rejected time card?

    Hi All,
    Can u pls clarify me this question on OTL? We have 2 buckets on time card. One is 1) On time bucket (Element) 2) Late hours bucket.(Element)
    We r using entry level approver where only the time entries with Late hours will be sent for apprval. Other time entries will be auto approved.
    Here the context is that the employee is seeking an excuse for coming late and hence the late hours are being sent for approval.
    Now when the approval is rejected, what happens to that time card? will it force the employee to submit that rejected time card?
    Or can the employee be still be able to submit the new cards without bothering abt the rejected time card?
    When the approval is rejected, it measns that the excuse is denied and later when we run the report we want to know
    the excused and non excused late entries.
    So i just want the employee to receive notification that it got rejected and the system should not force him to submit the rejected time card.
    Can you please answer this ?
    also all our time entries will be coming from swipe manchine. Is there a way we can make these entries just read only for the employee?
    Thanks in advance.
    Kiran

    Hi,
    Now when the approval is rejected, what happens to that time card? will it force the employee to submit that rejected time card?
    Or can the employee be still be able to submit the new cards without bothering abt the rejected time card?
    ----It won't force the employee to resubmit, the employee will be allowed to submit new timecards for a different period, but if for the rejected time period he has to use the rejected timecard and resubmit it.
    When the approval is rejected, it measns that the excuse is denied and later when we run the report we want to know
    the excused and non excused late entries.
    So i just want the employee to receive notification that it got rejected and the system should not force him to submit the rejected time card.
    ----The system will not force him to submit the rejected time card unless he tries to submit a timecard for the same time period.
    Can you please answer this ?
    also all our time entries will be coming from swipe manchine. Is there a way we can make these entries just read only for the employee?
    ----Could you please clarify your question on the "we can make these entries just read only for the employee?"
