Hey,
Even tho iTunes is asking to confirm your credit card details, when you purchase something it will still draw from your iTunes balance first. I think it is just a security check to ensure no one else is using your account.
This happened to me a couple of days ago but i simply conformed my details and entered my card security code then itunes took the payment from my account balance.

  • So I need to buy a TV series on my family's account, and we want it just to charge the credit card and not the money from an iTunes Card that's already on the account. Is there any way to do this?

    So I need to buy a TV series on my family's account, and we want it just to charge the credit card and not the money from an iTunes Card that's already on the account. Is there any way to do this?

    I am pretty sure it will always use the credit card unless payment method is set to none.
    That has been my experience anyway.
    They already have the money from the gift card so would rather collect from your credit card.

  • I need to download an App ( furby boom) but my ipad won't do it because my Ipad is set to buy the the Colombian store and not the US store eventhough my credit card is from the us

    I need to download an App ( furby boom) but my ipad won't do it because my Ipad is set to buy the the Colombian store and not the US store. How can I change the setting to download this app? Where do I change the setting Of regional stores?

    If you're in the US and have an account in the US iTunes Store, then go here and check the region:
    Settings > iTunes & App Stores > tap your Apple ID: > View Apple ID > Country/Region
    If you find that it is set to the correct region, log out of your iTunes Store account, restart your iPad, and sign into your account again.
    If you are in Colombia, then you cannot use the US iTunes Store, and you can't use a US credit card in the Colombian iTunes Store.
    Regards.

  • I want to give my old iPhone 4 to my grandson to use like an iPod Touch. Wifi only. How do I deactivate my info..so he can buy his own apps. and not have the cloud pushing all of my data to the old phone?

    Just turning off Cloud will not prevent him from turning it back on.
    Rignt now, if he uses the App store, iTunes thinks it's talking to me.

    First, turn off iMessage, FaceTime & delete the iCloud account, while your sim is still in the phone. Then: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings. Give it to your grandson & he gat then set it up as he wants.
    Important your turn iMessage & FaceTime off to disassociate the phone from your Apple ID. Apple "claims" to have fixed this with iOS 6.0, but until I can absolutely confirm such, I still recommend you turn all of that stuff off first.

  • I misplaced my ipad, so I remotely erased it.  Then I found it, but now I cannot use all of the options in the settings.  I have restored from backup, but it still is not letting me use all functionality.  Help!

    I misplaced my ipad, so I remotely erased it.  Then I found it, but now I cannot use all of the options in the settings.  I have restored from backup, but it still is not letting me use all functionality.  Help!

    Would throwing it in Recovery mode and restoring as new clear it up?
    (same for Ipad)
    Step 1: Turn off the iPhone. To do this press and hold the power button till you see the “Slide to Power off” screen. Now slide the button to turn it off.
    In case your iPhone is stuck in an infinite loop and the previous option is unavailable, press and hold the Power and Home button till the screen goes off. Remember to leave both the buttons as soon as the screen goes off and before the Apple logo appears again.
    Step 2: Connect the iPhone’s USB cable to your computer but not to your iPhone yet.
    Step 3: Now hold down the Home button and while you are holding it connect the USB cable. Keep holding the Home button till you see the Connect to iTunes screen on your iPhone(Screenshot shown below). iTunes will show an alert saying a device in recovery mode has been detected.
    Here’s what your iPhone screen will look like once its in the iPhone Recovery Mode.

    THEN RESTORE THE DEVICE AND SETUP AS NEW. JUST YOU WILL HAVE TO DOWNLOAD YOUR APPS AGAIN(FREE) ETC....
    LEAST THE SECURITY WORKS HAHA!!! I also wouldnt get upset, be thankful you found it.

  • How do I delete a download and not get charged for it?

    I am trying to download 2 rentals but it's taking to long. How can I delete the downloads on my ipad and not get charged for them so I can download the same rentals on my laptop?

    I've never rented a film and I'm not sure that you can restart the download on your computer. From http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1415 :
    If you rent a movie on an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Apple TV, it is not transferable to any other device and you must watch it on that device.
    Whether that applies to fully downloaded rentals and/or partial downloads I don't know.

  • Seems the battery life "range" on my iPhone 4 is eroding and not holding charge, unlike when I first bought it.  I have "turned off" apps running in background...

  • Pages:  How can I sort one column of words and not have it affect the other columns?

    How can I sort one column of words and not have it affect the other columns?  I have opened the inspector to the edit columns and rows under Table.  It will sort the column, but then it changes the other colums as well.  I know that if I use Numbers, it will work, but I want to know how to do the same thing in Pages.

    Hi Peter,
    Numbers sorts full rows on values in selected column(s). The technique for sorting a single column is essentially the same as Jerry is describing for Pages tables—separate the (data in the) column to be sorted, sort it, return it to the table.
    In Numbers the actual column may be separated from the original table, sorted, then returned. In Pages, the data must be extracted, sorted, then pasted back in, overwriting the unsorted data (if it was left in the original table).
    iWork tables follow a database model in which each row is a Record, and each column holds a Field within the records.
    As evidenced by the current question (and several similar questions arising in the Numbers community) that model doesn't apply to the way some users, especially some who come in from the MS Excel world, use tables.
    With Excels model—islands of data on a single large table, the ability to sort one or a selected few columns of data makes sense. One 'island' may comprise only cells AA21:AH50. Sorting that small 'table' should be possible without disturbing the rest of rows 21-30, which are probably part of one or more other 'data islands' in the sea that is a MS Excel spreadsheet.
    In Numbers, each of those 'islands' would be a separate Table, and that Table would be sortable without disturbing other Tables in the document.

  • HT2493 How to change preview image of a file and NOT the icon ?

    Hello dear Mac users
    How to change preview image of a file and NOT the icon ?
    I know how to change the icon of a file, but I wish to know how to change the preview of any file.
    For example: my file is "mysong.aif", I changed the icon to be "mylogo.png" using cmd+i, cmd+v on the icon. But the preview of the file still remain the same.
    I know it can be changed using iTunes, but I don't want to import all my files in iTune, and iTune cannot import all type of files.
    I hope someone will understand my needs...
    Thanks!

    Thanks BeerbarX
    You can't change the preview image for anything
    hoo
    QuickLook plugin
    what are the plugin ?
    In the case of a music file, it will be that generic black box with a note on it
    That is exactly what I'm asking about !
    MP3 which has a special tagging standard that can include artwork
    How can I "tag" my MP3 without going thru iTunes ? Is it possible to do it dirrectly in the Finder ? Is there other type of files that can include such tags ?
    Thank you for answering my question , wich I have to admit may seem useless, but I wish I could put something like a signature logo on each of the different file I produce (as AIF for music and MP4 for video clip) instead of that generic black box with a note on it, and by the meantime keeping a different icon for all of them in order to illustrate theire content.

  • I use my iphone 5 to record home videos. I have an apple tv but dvd burners dont have a hdmi plug in. Any suggestions on how i can burn videos from iphone 5?

    I use my iphone 5 to record home videos. I have an apple tv but dvd burners dont have a hdmi plug in. Any suggestions on how i can burn videos from iphone 5?
    I had a av cord that plugged into the iPhone 3gs and iPad 2 but its not compatible with the 5 connector. Right now i have to email myself the videos in small segments and open and save on the iPad 2 to burn them.  Is there an easier way to burn these from my iPhone 5 or through air play on apple tv?
    Thanks

    Connect the phone by USB to the computer, import with image capture, iPhoto or whatever application you use to import movies, drop it into iTunes.

  • How can I print a whole email document and not a "screen shot" like I get in the Print Preview option.

    How can I print a whole email document and not a "screen shot" like I get in the Print Preview option. I'd like to print from "file" and print" like I can on other browsers (IE, for example). When I try to print from Firefox it grabs all my info (file folders, etc.) from the left side of the page. I need just the email information, not the entire screen information. Thank you!
    -Bruce

    I agree; I should, but I can't :) I have an orange Firefox drop down that I go to to print, and it allows me to select "print", "print preview" and "print setup", where I can change the margins. It always defaults to a full screen shot (I use Yahoo) and does not show just the email. I don't need to print what is on the left side of the screen or anything other than the email (I can achieve these things by using file-print from IE, so I know it is doable, and I am still going into Yahoo and using their email when I do it).
    Hope this helps. I'm not a fan of IE, but I really don't like the print properties I'm getting here (I'm a long time Mozilla user, but I'm losing too much info with this option and can't afford that anymore).
    Thanks for the help!

  • No Mirroring in Ipad 2? I have IPAD2 and Apple Tv 4.3. I can airplay videos/music from Ipad2 to my HDTV via ATV, but I cant mirror it. When I select airplay to switch from Ipad2 to Apple TV, Mirroring does not show as an option. What am I missing?
