HT201209 How can I create an apple ID for my daughter, without adding a credit card to the account?

How can I create an apple ID for my daughter, without adding a credit card to the account? I have tried to purchase a gift card online, but it just credits it to my account; I cannot use it to credit her new account therefore I cannot create that account.

There are intructions on this page for how to create a new account without giving credit card details : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
e.g. log out of your account, find a free a free app in the store, click on its free 'price' :
click on 'create Apple id' on the popup :
Agree to the terms and fill in the details, and you should get 'none' on the payments screen.

    How can I create an Apple ID for my child without linking it to a credit card?

    Hi Kappy..
    that did use to be the case but ios 8 you can create a child's Apple ID which will stay linked to the main Apple ID until they are 13 when they can if you wish take over the Apple ID themselves.
    I Have the same question regarding creating an Apple ID for my son but it insists I have to add a credit card to prove I'm an adult.
    thing is I don't have another card to add to my Apple ID I have been using the same card for all my family's Apple purchases i just update my details when I get issued a new one.
    Any ideas or suggestions greatly accepted.
    cheers

  • HT204053 How can I create an Apple ID for my kids that are both under 13?

    My parents bought my kids iPad Minis and they do not have Apple ID's. Ideally, I would like to link them to my account so they can use the tons of apps I've bought for them on my devices while allowing them to make purchases using the gift cardsthey've received.

    Welcome to the community.
    Unfortunately, you cannot do that. The first hurdle that you are going to face, is that mobile devices, by virtue of being prone to loss, will always require that a password is entered before a purchase of any kind is made.
    If your concern about the password, is related to your privacy in regard to your mail, contacts and calendar information rather than their acces to make purchases, then the best solution would be for you to use another Apple ID for iCloud.
    Apple have called the whole cloud thing iCloud, there are a number of features under the iCloud umbrella, some of which require their own login. iTunes is one of these, another is what Apple have unfortunately also called iCloud too.
    You can use the same Apple ID (account) to login to both iCloud and iTunes, but you don't need to and often users will login to each service using a different ID.
    The part that you need to remember is that the services available when you log into iCloud are completely different and unrelated to those when you log in to iTunes. Your iCloud login enables mail, contacts, calendars, find my phone, Back to My Mac, Documents & Data sharing and photostream, it does not affect any of your iTunes services.

  • How can i register multiple apple id's and ipad with a single credit card?

    Hello Everyone,
    I am trying to register 15 iPad 2 with 15 apple id using same credit card details in the itunes section. When i register for more than one user i get an error message saying "please contact iTunes support to complete this transaction".
    Can anyone please help me in this issue.

    You can access the itunes store without an account at all.
    You would need a method of payment in order to purchase from the itunes store.

  • I created an Apple ID for my daughter with her own gmail address, but I want her Apple ID and primary email address to be an iCloud email address. How can I do this? I can't set up an icould email address for her without first creating an Apple ID?

    I have created an Apple ID for my daughter with her own gmail address as the primary email address, but I want her Apple ID and primary email address to be an iCloud email address. How can I do this? I can't set up an icould email address for her without first creating an Apple ID right?
    I'm not good with computers so please explain in simple way...:)
    I also wonder what the best way is to set up accounts for children in a family. I dont want them to be able to purchase apps etc through the parents accounts, also some things we like to share as a family and others we don't want to share. Is there any good. clear, simple explanation from Apple Support about these issues? Or best to go to Apple store and go to genius bar or one to one advise?
    thanks

    You can set up an iCloud account which makes the iCloud email address you choose the Apple ID and thus the login for it:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/22283348#22283348
    though I have to say I think it's more sensible if the ID is another address, both for security reasons (so people don't know what the login is) and as a contact address from Apple if the account were to stop working and they needed to contact you. So personally I would to to System Preferences, enter the GMail address which is an ID, and then choose a nerw @icloud.com address.
    If she has her own iCloud account she will need either her own computer or her own user account on your Mac to be able to make use of it. You should note that under Apple's terms of use Apple IDs are only available to children of 13 and over.
    As to purchasing apps, this is nothing to do with iCloud: it's iTunes, and the login can be different. So you can all sign into the same iTunes account but have different iCloud accounts. Or she can have her own iTunes account if she is of suitable age (credit card needed for purchasing apps).
    If you have other children you should be aware that any one Mac or device can create only three iCloud accounts - this is tied to the serial number, not the user account, and once reached cannot be bypassed. You can of course sign into an iCloud account created on another device.

    www.icloud.com
    Or, go to the App store, sign out of your current account. Try to make a purchase and it will ask you to sign in, or create a new account.
    You can do it through iTunes as well.
