I was given an App Store gift card (I don't have any devices for apps; I'm just an iTunes/music gal) what to do?
No gift receipt given with card; don’t feel right telling the person “thanks but this is wrong.” Especially since the nature of the thank you gift is from an emotional event for the gift giver.
My assumption is that if I attempt to redeem the App Store gift card that iTunes will apply it to a separate "ledger" for apps only and I will NOT be able to purchase music with the gift money.
I did not do what I did for this person with the thought of "oooh what I can I get in return?" I did it because I felt like it.
Yep, exactly. When you go to buy any of the iTunes Store cards in the Apple Store, they say "All cards work on the iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store. ". So it's just labeling, something which confuses a lot of people.
Regards.

Please help me guys I am so worried
You can't from Apple, they don't let you buy iTunes gift cards with an Apple Store gift card. You could see if a different store in your country might let you (though they possibly won't), or try selling the card to somebody e.g. family, friend, eBay etc

i need an upgrade to iphoto, but it wasn't purchased . the message appear you must verify your payment information before you can make purchases . i have 17$ credit by gift card . i don't have credit card
Hi ...
You need to take into account any applicable taxes and or fees. iTUNES STORE - TERMS AND CONDITIONS
So if the total cost of the app exceeds 17$, you'll need to purchase and redeem another iTunes gift card. -

Have a app store gift card use it once, have a balance. Need a code for this card
If you've already redeemed the card then it's balance should be on your account, you shouldn't need to-enter it - I've never had to re-enter any of mine.

I Heard that you can use the appstore gift card or itunes to do inapp purchases since they serve as credit points in the apple store
i think it could be since amazon appstore has amazon coins that do the same:
1. Buying Apps
2. buying inapp contents
3. (or any hardware or others) not sure about this..
so i thought it must be true of what ive heard,
please confirm and if true, teach me how..
cause i dont have a credit card and its kinda too much to ask others to borrow from others..iTunes and App Store gift cards are basically the same thing, both are redeemed onto your iTunes account and can be used to buy from the iTunes store, app store, Mac app store on Mac computers and the iBookstore - the cards that you shouldn't buy are Apple Store gift cards, they cannot be used with an iTunes account.
When you've redeemed it onto your account then your balance should show in both the iTunes and App Store apps on your iPad, and your computer's iTunes. On my iPad it shows at the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app under my account id and at the bottom of the Music tab in the iTunes store app (or you can view your account via Settings > iTunes & App Store and it should show on the screen that you are taken to). On my computer's iTunes it shows at the top left of the store's pages next to my id, and by logging in to view my account via the Store > View Account menu option.
If you are trying to download a paid-for item and you don't currently have a balance or other payment method on your account then you will be taken to the payment details screen so that you can either redeem a gift card or enter one of the other payment methods.
To redeem a card onto your account you can use the Redeem button at the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app, or the Music tab in the iTunes store app, on your iPad. Or you can do it via your computer's iTunes, either via the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage
Or by logging into your account via the Store > View Account menu option and selecting the payment details link on your account -
I'm serious! I bought an Apple Store Gift Card relier today and I first tried to redeem it on iTunes (that didn't work for obvious reasons). So then I tried to buy an iTunes gift card with it, but when I get to the checkout section there isn't an "Apple Store Gift Card" tab, even though the site itself states that there is. Can someone please tell me what to do!
Apple Store gift cards can only be used in Apple stores and their online stores, they can't be used with the iTunes store - and they can't be used to buy iTunes gift cards from Apple.

This is what happened: I bought a $20 App store gift card so i can get some gems on my Clash of Clans Account, once i entered the code i went into Clash of Clans and tried purchasing $10 worth of gems. But it says to change into the Sri Lankan Store but when i went to enter the code it said to change the store to Australia. I tried doing it by creating a new Apple ID. Once i went to the billing information i didn't enter my credit card details but i entered my Gift Card Code, although it said it was invalid. I did see i had $20 Credit Balance in my Apple ID. PLS HELP! Reply as soon as possible.
All iTunes gift cards are country-specific, so an Australian iTunes gift card can only be redeemed and used in Australia on an Australian iTunes account. And whilst you are in Australia you can only use the Australian store, the store's terms of use include having to be in a country.
Also all apps (and only other content from the stores) are tied to the account that bought/downloaded it, so only the account that bought an app can do in-app purchases in it - so the new account that you've created won't be able to do in-app purchases in that game as you downloaded by a different account. If you haven't spent any of the gift card on the new account then you could update your old account to have your Australian billing address on it and try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will unredeem the card or transfer its amount to that account : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption -

Hi I have an iTunes account with my uk debit card but am currently in Australia, can I buy and use an iTunes/app store gift card in AU$ or am I only allowed to acces the store in gbp£ ? Cheers
I had the same error when trying to update my apps on my ipod touch. I tried to input my security code numerous times to no avail. I also made sure my billing address was the same as what my bank had on file. To fix the issue I went into iTunes, logged onto the iTunes store, went to account settings and reviewed my recent purchases. Turned out that I had made a recent purchase and didn't have enough money left on my credit card to pay for it at the time. I paid off the credit card, and then input my security code once more and now it works fine. I've heard that some debit or pay as you go credit cards require a minimum balance, so make sure you have at least that amount in your account.
