HT201085 possible to have family member to purchase app with his/her own credit card?

Now the amount is charged to organizer.

No. But if they are a member of the group but not the Organizer, they can use gift cards to create a credit balance on their account, and that will be used for purchases rather than the Organizer's credit card.

It seems to me that you can only purchase apps by means of a credit card.If it is true, then I am very disappointed.Are there no other way to purchase apps?

Can my minor daughter have her own account as my family member and charge purchased to her own credit card?

Currently I family-share my iTunes with my minor daughter. She purchases songs which are charged to my bank card. l would like to set her up with her own apple id so she can purchase her own songs and use her own bank card, but still share so I know what she is purchasing and how much she is spending. is this possible?

Bank card - no.
Gift cards - yes.
Family purchases and payments:
"After you set up your family, any time a family member initiates a new purchase it will be billed directly to your account unless that family member has gift or store credit. First, their store credit will be used to pay the partial or total bill. The remainder will bill to the family organizer's card."

How can my child use an iTunes gift card to purchase apps instead of using my credit card?

My daughter (under 13 years of age) just redeemed her iTunes gift card she got for christmas, but there is seems to be no way she can pay with this in App Store. Can this be true? App Store says that her credit is 15 $ but my credit card is used for payments all the time...
And yes, we use Family Sharing - and yes my credit card works. But it is just no good that my credit card is being used when she has credit of her own (it was actually the point of giving her the gift card...).
Any solutions would be fantastic!

I can't seem to figure out how to redeem it in the iTunes store?
You can't directly.
I can't seem to figure out how to use my Apple gift card to buy an itunes gift card.
Apply it in the online Apple Store to gift card purchases.

Trying to purchase apps with same ac but new card

I am trying to purchase another apps from app store but its showing error ,the card which i was used to do the payment was lost , please tell me the solution to resolve the problem

What sort of your card are you trying to use, debit or credit ? As far as I know debit cards are no longer accepted as a valid payment method - they are not listed on this page and there have been a number of posts about them being declined.
If it's a credit card then is it registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, it was issued by a bank in your country and you are currently in that country ? If it is then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes support and see if they know why it's being declined : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management

Can two people have separate accounts on 1 PC? My wife has just purchased an ipod of her own and wants to set up her own account on my PC (I already have an account). If so how is this done?

My wife has just purchased at long last her own ipod. Is it possible to have two accounts on one PC as she wants to download her own songs etc rather than use my account. I would be grateful for some assitance on this please.
Many thanks

How to use multiple iPods, iPads, or iPhones with one computer

ICloud Family Sharing - can't purchase apps with iTunes Credit

My wife and I previously shared the same AppleID on our phones. When the family sharing became available, it seemed the perfect approach for what we were accomplishing. I upgraded my wife's phone to 8.x and then moved her back to the Apple ID that I had initially created for her. I invited her to join the family and completed that setup.
We then had some iTunes gift cards that she had received and so loaded those to her iTunes account (wife's AppeID) on her iPad. However, when we attempt to purchase apps on her iPad, it insists on purchasing from my AppleID via my credit card rather than using the iTunes credit.
Any suggestions? I've seen posts that iTunes credit cannot be transferred.

Nope, not actually. The only restrictions Alberta places on gift cards are the following:
* Not allow expiry dates on gift cards, gift certificates, and vouchers that have been purchased and have monetary value
* Eliminate inactivity fees, also called dormancy fees, that reduce the value of gift cards the longer they go unredeemed
* Prevent businesses from not honouring gift cards for purchases that are
more or less than the value of a gift card
* Require merchants to fully disclose any restrictions on use of a gift card on both the actual card and its packaging
To further my point, Apple definately does not abide by the last law (at least in the rest of Canada), as they say nothing on the card or its packaging about not being able to buy apps with it.

i try to download the song and it comes up with put in password. then it takes me to a credit card detail place. i have enough money on my account i shouldn't have to use my credit card. how can i use the money alredy on my account?

If the amount of the purchase is close to $21.07, then you need to take into account taxes may be added.
If you go beyond the credit from a gift card the balance will be billed to your credit card account.

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...

If this is an Alienware system, the most likely culprit is the Bigfoot Networks LSP as per the following document:
Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
Head to the Downloads and Drivers page at Dell for your particular model of Alienware. Look for available updates for your BigFoot networking device. If you update those drivers, does that give you back your Store access?

Can members of a family group use their own credit card or payment method other than the Family Organizer's credit card?

In Family Sharing, is the Family Organizer's credit card the only method of payment for all family members? Or can family members also pay with their own credit card?

Hello Trisa295,
Family sharing payments are all managed by the Organizer, and only the billing information on that account can be used to pay for an iTunes purchase. Take a look at this info from the following article:
Family purchases and payments
With Family Sharing, one adult in the family—the family organizer—agrees to pay for any iTunes, iBooks, and App Store purchases that other family members initiate while they're part of the family group. This also includes ongoing subscription purchases initiated by family members, such as iCloud storage, iTunes Match, and Newsstand subscriptions.
If the members of the Family have credits or have iTunes Gift cards redeemed, that balance gets used first so an option you all have is to apply iTunes credit in some way to these member accounts:
After you set up your family, any time a family member initiates a new purchase it will be billed directly to your account unless that family member has gift or store credit. First, their store credit will be used to pay the partial or total bill. The remainder will bill to the family organizer's card.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Sterling

Can an iPhone 4S purchased in Canada be used in mainland China and download apps by using a Chinese credit card?

Hi,
Can an iPhone 4S purchased in Canada be used in mainland China, and also download apps by using a Chinese credit card?
Thanks.

Could it be because the SIM card got damaged while I cut it to fit the IPhone?
Very likely. Hard to believe the carrier in Mexico doesn't have a micro-SIM card available.
Or somehow the Chinese carrier found out and locked it?
No, which is not possible.
What can I do? Get a new SIM and see if it works again?
Get a micro-SIM from the carrier in Mexico that you don't have to manually cut down. If that carrier doesn't provide one, switch to another carrier that is not so low-budget.
