HT201209 Can I sign up to Itunes using a gift card?

Can I sign up to Itunes using a gift card or do they have to have a credit card? I gave my little sister my Itouch and a gift card but I do not want to give her my credit card. What can I do for her to get Itunes?

Yes you can!

Why won't itunes use my gift card

itunes says i have $15 but it keeps asking for my bank account and won't use the gift card, also when i go to billing info there is no none option

This sounds like a question for the iTunes store. You can contact them about account problems at:

I am a US citizen in school in Montreal and I was given a US Apple Store gift card. How can I buy the new iPad using my gift card and with a school discount?

I am a grad student from NYC and at a university in Montreal. I was given a 500$ gift card as a gift to put towards a new ipad. BUT, I apparently cannot use the US gift card in Canada. So, what do I do? I have no time to head back to NYC to get it. I want to order it, but not sure they will ship to montreal...? And was thinking of sending it back to my parents and then have them buy it and mail it to me, but I I think them having to pay tax on this is ridiculous. On top of that, I should be able to garner the ed discount but I dont think the US recognizes Canadian schools in their system and visa versa. SO if I do buy it in the US, I can use my gift card but I can't get the discount. Or if I buy it here in MTL, I can get the discount but I cannot use the gift card..
Can anyone suggest a solution? all bright ideas welcome.

You can only use a gift card in the country it was issued in - no way around that as the Apple Store does NOT offer currency exchange with gift cards.
Nor can you order from the USA online store and ship to any address outside of the USA - again, no way around that as the online stores do NOT ship internationally.
You could send the gift card back to someone in the USA, to use to purchase your item for you, and then once they receive it, they could ship it to you. Canada customs will hold it until they collect any import fees and taxes levied on imported consumer electronics though.
Either that or buy it in Canada with the discount, and use the card later when you get home again.

Will iTunes use my gift card first before charging my credit card?

If I redeem an iTunes Gift card, will it use it upfirst prior to charging my credit card?

It looks like you had an outstanding charge for $30 on your account. When that happens, you usually have to enter in valid credit card info to pay for it or redeem gift cards to cover the amount.
In your case, as soon as you redeemed the cards, iTunes saw that the amount you redeemed was sufficient enough to take care of that $30 outstanding charge and so it subtracted it from the $100 you redeemed the gift cards for.
If you have any other questions you can contact iTunes Support via expresslane.apple.com

I paid for some songs on iTunes using the gift card I got but it also charged my credit card?

So I got a iTunes $20 gift card from a friend and I correctly redeemed the card an I started buying some songs which took away some of the credit of the iTunes account but then a couple days later my credit card was also charged for buying those songs. Is this normal?

None for payment
After establishing the Credit Card account (i.e. after you have made purchases), you can remove the credit card information by editing your payment info, choosing "None".

Hello All.

Yes. Did the gift card come from the US? If not, what Country was it bought in? Also, I'm almost positive refurbished models are only sold through the online Apple store, not at Apple retail store locations.

Can i sign into my itunes account without credit card details?

Basically i made an itunes account a few months ago without credit card details and it has everything my ipod contains on there, a few weeks ago my laptop broke and now im using my sisters which i downloaded itunes on and it won't let me sign in now unless i put card details in which i don't want to do, is there anyway of accessing my account without puting card details in? i would like to update my ipod

Select Store adn click Sign in at top right of the iTunes window.
Put in your username and password..

Can't figure out how to use my gift card.

It says that you have to look for Reddeem Card in upper right hand corner of I tune store and it isn't there. Does anyone else know where or how to do this? TIA Gena

When you are at the iTunes home site there should be a column labeled quick links with 6 categories under it. Click the one labeled "redeem", follow the rest.

I can't sign into the itunes store using the 3G network?

I can't sign into the itunes store using the 3G network?
I keep getting the error "Can't connect to the iTunes Store"
This also makes it impossible for me to use itunes match with the 3G network.

I've got this as well and it seems to have affected only the Music and Home pages - do a search in the search bar and you will get to the films etc. Looks like somone goofed! If anyone from Apple checks this out, mine is the UK store. Home page and Music pages only affected.

Go view your account and make sure you have a valid payment method in your account.

HT201209 Can you use an iTunes gift card to purchase something actually in an app? (Like buy coins in the app and use your gift card)

Can you use an iTunes gift card to purchase things actually in an app? (Buy "coins" using the gift card?)

No idea, but it seems like you should be able to. You can give it a try, but will have to figure out some way around the automatic 1-click ordering that the App Store now does by default.
It certainly seems like something deserving of a feedback form submission, though ...

Since the ios7 update I can't sign into my itunes on my ipad.

Since the ios7 update I can't sign into my itunes on my ipad or my iphone. It's prepopulated with an old ID, and I can't even view my account to fix it. At first the problem was that after the ios7 update my apple ID for icloud was prepopulated with my old ID. So after three days of trying to fix it, I finally just went on my mac and changed my ID back to the old one. I thought I solved my problems... I was able to sign into icloud on my ipad. Now today... my itunes apple ID is prepopulated with my ID I was using up until a few days ago. I am at a loss. I have no idea how to restart (or whatever) and just fix everything (icloud, itunes, and anything else that might prepopulate down the road that I don't even know about) ... I'm so frustrated! I'm glad the security is better but I wish there was an emergency code you could have emailed to you after answering extremely secure questions... or something. Please help. Thank you!

I had a similar issue. I was able to sign into iTunes but when I tried to view my account information iTunes repeatedly asked for my password in an endless loop. I solved the issue by unblocking cookies in safari: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3388

Yes, you can download iTunes for Windows using Parallels. If planning on making purchases here and/or authorizing already purchased tracks (from your Mac iTunes library), you are permitted to authorize five (5) computers as per iTunes Store terms of use, regardless of computing platform. No need to create a separate new iTunes Store account.
However, judging from what you would like to do, your best bet would be to convert the WMAs to AAC/MP3 in iTunes-Windows (iTunes-Mac cannot import WMA files), and drag the files from the Parallels window to your desktop to add to the iTunes-Mac library. (as the iPod itself is currently linked to your iTunes-Mac library)
Hope this helps,
Steve
