Meaning enter your username and password?
Are you signed in - Settings>Store>Sign In? Maybe try in the App Store in the bottom left corner - you can access your ID in the featured tab of the App Store - check there.
If you are signed in correctly - try signing out and then sign in again in order to refresh the account information.
Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in. Then try to redeem the card again.

  • I can't log into my iTunes account. I logger out a few days ago to trouble shoot because I was trying to redeem some iTunes cards but when i pressed redeem nothing happened. Now when i press sign in and then choose existing Apple ID, nothing happens

    I can't log into my iTunes account on my iPhone 5s. I logged out a few days ago to trouble shoot because I was trying to redeem some iTunes cards but when i pressed redeem nothing happened. I then tried to log back in immediately afterwards. I was unable to do so. After clicking "sign in" at the bottom of the apps main page, it brought up another menu where I clicked "Choose existing Apple ID". After pressing this the menu disappeared and nothing happened. I tried this multiple times and received the same result each time. I tried the other available option of creating a new AP ID to log in with and that one worked perfectly fine. I am clueless as to why the log in for me is either not able to load or just completely blocking me from getting back into my iTunes account on my phone. Not only can I not listen to the music I currently have, but I cannot log in to purchase the new music that I wanted to with my unused iTunes gift cards

    I have the same problem too and tried alot of things like time zone , restarting or changing DNS of wifi connection to 8.8.8.8 still nothing happens .. !!
    iPhone 5s, iOS 8.3

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    This works for some users. Not sure why.
    Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

  • TS1292 i have tried to redeem my itunes card i just bought and the code says invalid

    i need help redeeming a itunes card that i just bought, itunes says the code is invalid

    Make sure you're using the correct code. For most iTunes cards, the code is under the scratchoff area on the back of the card. The support article from which you came:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1292
    has additional suggestions. If you can't get the card to work after perusing that page, contact the iTunes Store Support; instructions are at the bottom of that article.
    Regards.

  • I keep trying to redeem my itunes cards i got for christmas, .

    I tried to do this on my ipod touch and i did everything correctly but whenever i click redeem , it keeps on asking me for my password. Over and over again and it refuses to redeem the card. What can i do to fix this?

    What has this to do with Pages?
    You need an Apple I.D. which has a password the same as the one you used to post here.
    You don't have a password? It won't accept your password? You haven't registered your iPod Touch with your Apple I.D.? Where exactly is it going wrong?

  • HT203167 i am trying to redeem a gift card it shows the amount on the page but when i click what i want it asks me what kind of payment i already input the code

    what do i need to do to use my gift card

    Hi brendalynn6,
    Have you looked at the [[Opening PDF files within Firefox]] Knowledge Base article? There are a couple of different PDF plugins listed in the article. I'd suggest you give those a shot. You might also want to take a look at [[Using the Adobe Reader plugin with Firefox]].
    Hopefully this helps!

  • My daughter has redeemed her iTunes card.  It shows her $25.00 balance, yet it will not deduct her iBook purchase from this balance.  It is still trying to access our card.

    My daughter has  REDEEMED  her iTunes card.  It shows the $25 balance.   Yet, when she tries to purchase an iBook it continues to try to access our card.  Why is it no deducting her purchase from the balance of her card?

    If the purchase exceeds the gift card, the card is still processed and only the remainder is sent to the credit card. 
    That is what I was alluding to and I assumed that iTunes would send a warning to that effect. Its been so long since I used anything but a gift card I wasn't sure what the protocol was anymore.

  • I am redeeming my iTunes card for the first time and and a prompt says my request cannot be process as of this time try gain later

    I was trying to redeem my iTunes card and cannot be process at this time try again later...Its been like that more than an hour now

    It should keep asking for the password, because it's trying to check for purchases... As soon as you login, it will see you have pending downloads and create the downloads section on the left below Purchases under the Store section. Then it will start the music downloads there, as they will be listed one below the other.
    You could just try to check your account balance or view your account and that will trigger a password request too. You can just click on that and say that now iTunes keeps asking for the password and ask him to help you with that. Trick would be to interrupt him so that he carries on with another task after, so he doesn't notice the download. Or you carry on with email or browsing which you were "busy" with when iTunes interrupted you for the password (stupid iTunes)

  • What can i do if i cant redeem my itunes card. It shows there "not properly activated"

    I tried to redeem my itunes card. it shown "not properly activated". What should i do?

    If the store that it was bought from is close by then you could try going back and asking them to activate it properly. If it's not, or if they can't/won't, then try contacting iTunes Support (you will probably need to give them images of the front and back of the card, and possibly its receipt) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then iTunes Cards And Codes

  • Re-redeeming my itunes card.

    i see in my right hand corner of my itunes, my amount left over (on my itunes card) next to my email..
    when i click BUY in itunes, to redeem my left over amount, it is asking for my credit card information, and not letting me go any further with the transaction...
    i even tried re using my itunes card, and it says that the car has been used already, clearly- but i cant use it...
    help?
    you can email me info at: [email protected]
    THANKS

    Make sure you are only trying to buy music or video. In Canada, you can only buy apps with a credit card; gift cards won't work for apps.
