HT2534 setting up an account without a credit card

I tried following the "how to set up a new account without a credit card" directions, but when I got to the billing page, there is no "no card" option or anything close to it. Any idea on how to set up an account without using a cc? I just want to download Instagram but it requires an Apple ID.

    How do I set up an account without a credit card?  I have a communities account, but if I attempt to download a free product from itunes, it insists on getting a credit card.  There is no other option offered.

  • I am trying to set up an account without a credit card. When I get to the screen which asks for credit card information, 'none' is not an option. Why not?

    I am trying to set up an iTunes account without a credit card. However when I get to the screen that asks for credit card information, 'none' is not an option.  According to the instructions on the website, that should be an option. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for the response,
    Yes, I followed the instructions to the letter. But it asks for credit information anyway and 'none' is supposed to be an option when setting up an account 'with no credit card'.
    I have two new iphones, the first one set up as expected, where 'none' was an option. Now that I'm attempting to set up the second with different information, there is no 'none', only Mastercard,Visa, AmerX, Discover and Paypal.

  • HT2534 create itune account without a credit card I do not have the none option

    I am trying to create an itune account on my iphone 5 I do not want to add a credit card.  I have read several posts that say select the none option I do not have that.  Please let me know how to set up itune account without a credit card just using it for free apps.

    You are following the instructions on the page that you posted from exactly, and you are trying to create a new account and not update an existing account i.e. you are selecting a free app in the store and clicking on 'Create Apple ID' when 'buying' it ?

  • HT1689 Can I set up an ITunes account without a credit card number?

    We are using IPads in a school setting and having trouble setting up the ITunes account without a credit card number.  We are only allowed to download free apps, the school is not paying for any, therefore we do not need to have a credit card for purchases.  Is there a way to get around this so that we can still download the free apps onto the IPads?
    Thank you

    If you only want the free apps, take a look here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    Read the steps carefully as the order in which you follow them is  critical. Note that you can do this only when creating a new Apple ID. You cannot use an existing ID. 
    You will of course not be able to get anything other than the free apps without entering in some sort of payment method (credit card, prepaid iTunes card, gift certificate, etc.)
    Regards.

    How can I create a iTunes account without a Credit card?

    Create a NEW account using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.

  • HT2534 Are we no longer able to create accounts without a credit card?

    I saw the instruction of how to create an account without a credit card on the support website, but I can't create my account doesn't matter whether I use my laptop or my ipad.
    Why? why??
    Everytime I choose "none" as an option for credit card, the system tells me to seek assisstance on this support website.
    I watched a video on how to make a no credit card account online, the system didn't stop him, so I wonder if we have to choose a credit card when creating an account now     I have a point card but I can't use it now because of my account.....

    Those instructions do still work, I used them yesterday in response to another thread and was able to download a free app with it. Are you currently in the country where that is account is based ? You need to be in a country to be able to use its store.
    If you are getting a message to contact iTunes Support then you can do so via this link and ask them for help (we are fellow users, we won't know why the message is appearing) : 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

  • HT2534 I should be able to create an itunes account without a credit card but it doesn't give me the option of choosing none; Why?

    I should be able to create an itunes account without a credit card but it doesn't give me the option of choosing none; Why?

    Did you follow the instructions on that page exactly when you created the account ? They worked for me yesterday on my computer's iTunes when I tried them in response to another thread.
    e.g. I logged out of my existing account and found a free app in the store and clicked on its free 'price'
    I then clicked on 'create Apple id' on the popup :
    And after agreeing to the terms and filling in my details I was able to select 'none' as the payment method.
