Welcome to Apple Support Communities
If you are not going to buy anything, you don't need the credit card. You should be able to download free applications

If you don't have a credit card then you might be able to use iTunes gift cards instead - that's what I currently use for purchases. You might be getting the 'billing problem' message due to it being a debit card, which as I said I don't think are still accepted - you might want to contact iTunes Support via the link that I gave to confirm one way or the other if that is the case.

"my airport does not have an IP address and cannot connect to the internet!"

HT201359 What happens if you don't have a credit card, or gift etc, I left my address for the bills to come there. Do you get a bill in the mail, that you can pay by BPay over the phone?

Does anyone know, if you don't have a credit card, iTunes card or similar, and you have given your postal address as the billing address, do your bills come there, and then you pay for them via BPay or similar?

You cannot buy something without a credit card or an itunes git card.

HT201209 If I redeem an iTunes gift card on an account that does not have a credit card or NONE as payment, can I gift apps to other accounts? It will not let me. Please advise.

If I redeem an iTunes Gift Card to an Apple ID that does not have a credit card (or NONE is selected as payment option), can I gift an app to another account?
I can purchase apps on that account but it will not allow me to gift an app from an ipad or via the itunes store (on the computer). Do I need to have a credit card on the account to be able to do that?

You can only gift via a credit card - you can only use your account's balance for buying content for yourself.

What if you don't have a credit card

I am trying to setup an account for my nephew so he can access itunes on his ipod and make purchases via credit from an itunes card. Is it possible to do this without having a credit card listed under your account details?

You might need a credit card to set up the account, but you can then remove the credit card immediately after the account is set up.

HT1918 What if I dont have a credit card or bank account anymore

I lost my bank account and I don't have a credit card how can I download free apps

HT2534 If i don't have a credit card can i still purchase songs and other apps that are not free?

i don't have a credit card can i still purchase an album?
if i can, will the bill of the album be added to my monthly bill?

I'm not sure what you mean by 'added to my monthly bill', there isn't a 'monthly bill' for iTunes. If you want to download paid-for items from the stores then you need a payment method on your iTunes account e.g. credit card, Paypal (if you are in the US), iTunes gift cards

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).

Why can't you use a pre-paid credit card on your itunes account?

i tried using apre paid credit card for my itnunes account to purchase songs and it won't let me

Wonder why an Apple person told me this would work??
Apple should read this stuff once in a while.
Some prepaid cards appear to act as credit cards to the merchant. If yours is one of them it should work, but debit cards are not accepted for the iTunes Store.
Can you use a pre-paid credit card from Wal-Mart?
Do you mean an iTunes Card, the kind sold at Wal-Mart? Sure, that will work.
"Pre-paid" and "credit" are mutually exclusive.
I believe this way of thinking about it ought to be valid: if you need a PIN code, the card won't work.
I don't use debit cards so I can't be certain if this will apply consistently, but let me know if that makes sense.

Chris, i had a client here recently living in the UK. despite posting screen shots of the entire process, there was no such option on the UK iTMS (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11407006&#11407006). might be different rules & regulations in different countries.

HT201359 Do you need to use a credit card to start iTunes and AppStore or can you just use a gift card?

I just bought my iPod and i need to enter billing information to make a purchase from the iTunes Store. Do I have to enter credit card information or will it work with just a gift card?

Hello, Rojelio16.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
To create an Apple ID without a credit or debit card, there is a specific series of steps that have to be processed in order to allow the payment to be set as none on creation of the account.
Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
If the specific steps have not been processed, a credit or debit card will be required to complete the setup the account.
However, it can be removed and payment method changed to none as long as there is not an outstanding balance. At this point an iTunes gift card can be used as form of payment.

Im trying to download the facebook app, but its saying i need a credit card? i dont have no credit card while i create my account. what do i do?

i go to install the app, and it says i have to review and confirm my account, so i do and it says put in ur credit card details.. but i dont have any?? what do i do

Some users has reported that you can't set up an account withut a credt card or payment method if you do that through/while purchasing an app. Try creating a new iTunes account without a credit card on the computer using the link previous provided. Alternately yu shouldbe able to purchase an iTunes gif tcard and and enter that as the payment method.

With i tunes if you want to get something for free and you don't have a credit card how do you go about

I am trying to register for i tunes but i cant without a credit card and i want to get a free about what do i do??

I have tried to assist many people using the steps in that article but at the end of the outlined steps the 'NONE'
button is not an option.
My best advice is to hold off on creating the iTunes store account until you have an iTunes gift card to redeem.
If you can talk a family member or friend into assisting you with accout set up [and to use their credit card]...
The card can be removed as soon as it is verified by iTunes Store.
Just sign back into your iTunes store account
click on 'Edit Payment Info'
then selecting 'NONE' as the payment type
Be sure to click 'DONE' before closing the window or the CC info will stay on file.
Good Luck
