HT1918 Am I able to use the credit I already have in itunes to purchase ibooks without it taking payment from my bank

When purchashing ibooks the payment is taken out of my bank, yet I have credit in itunes.  Is the process of downloading ibooks different from downloading products in itunes?

Hello Philcyp,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
iTunes Store: How iTunes Store purchases are billed
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5582
When making purchases, content credits are used first, followed by Gift Certificate, iTunes Card, or Allowance Account credits; your credit card or PayPal account is then charged for any remaining balance.
Best of luck,
Mario

  • How do I use the money in my apple ID account to purchase iBooks?

    I have uploaded iTunes gift cards I received to my apple ID, but when I purchase an iBook, or any other app, it still keeps taking the money from the debit card on file. How do I get the App Store or iBooks store to take it off the credit I already have on my apple ID?

  • HT1918 I am unable to change the credit card information on my iTunes account

    My old credit expired so I need to edit the credit card info...after trying with various different (and active) cards the iTunes window still tells me "Temporarily unable to process this request...please try again later"...I have done this for 2 days...The iTunes Help topics have no answers for this problem....it's been over 48 hrs since submitting my "help" request to Apple but still no follow-up. Perhaps the Apple support community has somene who knows what the problem (and fix) is? BTW, I'm really dissapointed at Apple lately: never-ending version control, redundant (annoying) security requests for login and really poor help menus. How about a FAQ for troubleshooting? Non-existent...I guess that's why people like us end up fending for ourselves in the "Community" help sewer, spending the night on Google looking for a real solution. Thanks Apple. You suck!

    Spooky6243 has the solution for CC updates (it worked for me, anyway!): log in to the Apple Store on your web browser (http://http://store.apple.com/us) and then update your account inof there...credit card updates will appear on the iTunes application after making changes thru the website...I wonder why Apple never tells us this in the first place? Probably because it should work thru either application...good luck everyone!
    P.S. - And make sure your iTunes app is closed before you make changes on the website (this may help you Geordon).

  • Can my girlfriend and I use the same computer but have 2 itunes accounts?

    I've got itunes on my computer and have an iphone synched. My girlfriend has just bought an iphone but her old computer is broken, so she has an itunes account but can't access it.
    She has connected her iphone to my computer and at the set up specified that it was a new phone, however there doesn't seem to be any option for her to select a different itunes account?
    Is it possible to run 2 itunes accounts off of 1 computer?

    you could authorize your iTunes to play/use content purchased with her iTunes account.
    that's basically very easy. all you have to do is +log out+ of one account (click on the account name in the Store window and select +sign out+ from the pop-up dialog) and into the other, and then they will both be authorized. (be sure to just *log out*, not de-authorize ).

    I have the system Library on a second internal drive and it is syncing with iCloud with no problems. Also the Media Browser it seeing it there.
    Only make sure, your external drive is directly connected and correctly formatted MacOS Extended (Journaled).

  • How do you add an iTunes Gift Card so that all purchases of any members of a Family Sharing Group can use the credit?

    How can all family members of a Family Sharing Group use a gift card that has been been applied to the iTunes master account? I added a gift card to our master iTunes account for my grandson, and even though he's a family sharing group member, none of the purchases I have approved from his requests have used the gift card credit. A search of the iTunes support site failed to turn up anything that even remotely addresses this topic. It would seem reasonable to assume that any purchase made by any family member should be able to use the gift card credit since all purchases go through the master account, but this does not appear to be the case.

    Regarding your statement about the gift card balance being used if redeemed to the organizers account - http://www.apple.com/feedback.
    Regarding redeeming the gift card to the child's account, it is the same as redeeming to yours.  You have to be signed in to the iTunes store using the child's apple ID, then redeem the gift card there.  If you already redeemed the card on your ID, you won't be able to redeem it again.

  • I have an apple id but i have not been able to use the same id with i tune and app store..what to do

    i have an apple id but i have not been able to use the same id with i tune and app store..what to do???every time i m trying to login it is telling that this id has not been used with i tune and App Store ....reviewing of my id is one of the option provided to me after this...

    Have you logged in and reviewed your account and entered payment details ? Unless the instructions on this page are followed when creating an account : Create an iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store account without a credit card or other payment method - Apple Suppor…
    then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store.
    You could see if this post by mountaingoatgirl lets you review your account without needing to enter credit card details : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24303054#24303054
    If not then you will either have to enter card details (you should be able to remove them after entering them), or create a new account (using the instructions on the above link).

  • I am a teacher that uses the iPad in the classroom.  I have an itunes account setup for my classroom without a credit card listed. Is there anyway for me to purchase apps to use in the classroom with a Purchase Order?

    (Being sarcastic - its because only the US is big or important enough to warrant volume licensing....)
    At this time, until Apple decides to release volume licensing structures outside of the US the only solution would be to use your purchase orders with a company that sells the iTunes Vouchers and redeem those.
    However - even then its hard to stay on the right side of the EULA when the terms are all couched in reference to "Personal Use"
    I have spoken to some developers in the past about educational discounts, or even support for proxies, and wasn't really impressed with their answers.   But hey - even Adobe has trouble with proxies and consistent approaches - we can't expect independent developers to be able to match the same capabilities...

    How am I able to use the same iTunes account on a different iPod?

    By just using the same iTunes account.  If you set up the iPod on your computer just make sure that iTunes is signed your account.  Of settingup via wifi, just enter your existing account.  Do not create a new one.

    Well, everything that you have bought with her Apple ID prior to getting your own Apple ID is forever hers. Apple will not transfer content from one ID to another. But in the case of the Mac, contact iTunes Customer Service and request that they send your issue to the Account Security Team and ask that the Mac be released form your mother's account so you may register it with your account. Then you can accept the iLife apps into your account for any future updates.
