  • Do you have to used a credit card, or can you use an iTunes gift card?

    I've always used iTunes gift cards for my purchase.  Can I use an iTunes gift card, or do I have to use a credit card to purchase a Match subscription?

  • Can you use a debit card to purchase and download apps or does it have to be a credit card

    can i use a debit mastercard to download apps or does it have to be a credit card? I used my debit card to buy and download afew apps but now i cant even download free apps without being asked for my billing info and when i enter the info it says it is incorrect when it isnt.

    I think it has to do with the way that you order thru ATT. When you order, they put a hold on your account for the purchase amount. In 3-5 days( for PNC) when PNC doesn't see the purchase go thru, they release the funds. ATT will take the money when your phone ships. If you go to the Apple store, they don't take a deposit. They put your name on the priority list and you only give your card when you pick your phone up.

  • Why do you have to submit your credit card number is you are redeeming a card?

    why do you have to use your credit card number is you are redeeming ?

    I haven't seen a good answer from this yet. You can create a new Apple ID for the store without a CC. You can remove your CC info from an already established ID (you made a purchase in iTunes), but you can't use your Apple ID for first time use in the Store without a CC.

  • Why do you have to have a credit card to make a new apple account?

    I want to make a new account but it says I have to have a credit card to make a new one

    Create a NEW account/ID 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. Make sure you specify a birthdate that results in being at least 13 years old

    Why can’t I select None when I edit my payment information?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5366
    If None is not available - On your computer launch iTunes and click “iTunes Store” in the left navigation pane. Click the “down arrow” next to your name at the top right side of the page and click “Account.” Enter your username and password and click “View Account” to log into your account information. Next to your Payment Type, click “Edit.” Select the “None” button and click “Done.” Confirm that your card has been removed by returning to the Apple account information screen. Under Payment Type, it should say that there is no credit card on file.

  • Can i use usa itunes store in the other countries if i have an account without credit card number

    I'm inside the States and using US iTunes store on my iphone 4s (contract free). However I have an account without credit card number. I wonder if I am able to use US iTunes store connected with this account outside the States (say in Russia or Armenia).

  • HT204053 I tried to gift someone something but the credit card I was on my account wasn't any good and I don't have access to a credit card... Problem is now it won't let me do anything like DL FREE apps n stuff until I enter a valid credit card but I don

    Now I'm screwed cuz I don't have a valid CC to use and I can't do a **** thing until iTunes or AppStore gets me to enter a valid CC... Problem is I could just create a new account but I have about $100 loaded onto this account I'm currently using... Is there anything I can do at this point? Besides go spend money on a prepaid credit card which I don't have money for and enter that info in??? Please help!! I can't even  download FREE apps right now or ANYTHING basically cuz of this **** gift thing I was trying to send! This is what I get for being nice I guess! I figured since I had close to $100 in my iTunes/AppStore account it would take the money for the gift from that but noooooo it tried to use the credit card  I had on file!! Ugh

    You can't use your account's balance for gifting, you can only use a credit card - your balance can only be used to buy content for yourself. Until you pay what you owe iTunes then you won't be able to download any items from the store on that account.
    If you haven't got a valid credit card then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they can cancel the gift or take what you owe them from your balance: http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

  • If I do not have a credit card binded to my Apple ID, will I still be able to redeem and use iTunes gift cards?

    If I do not have a credit card binded to my Apple ID, will I still be able to redeem and use iTunes gift cards?

    How did you create the account ? Unless the instructions on this page are followed when creating an account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store.
    If you didn't use those instructions then you will need to enter card details (you should be able to remove them after entering them), or create a new account (and use the instructions on that HT2534 page when creating it).

  • Do I have to set up credit card details if I want to download artwork

    I synched CDs to ipod but no artwork appeared.  Do I have to set up credit card details in store before I can do this ?

    No. If the artwork that is embedded into the tracks or was added to the album in iTunes does not sync over to the classic, it might be corrupt or the artwork database on your iPod is.  The only way to correct the later is to restore the iPod. 
    Did iTunes retrieve the artwork for your tracks or did you copy it paste it from the web?

  • I have had three seperate credit card charges from itunes but I haven't ordered anything and they do not appear on my itunes purchased list.

    Why do I have mystery charges??!!
    Hi I have been charged three seperate transactions on my credit card statement from itunes. I did not make these purchases and I have checked on my itunes purchase list and they do not appear. How or why did this happen? What can be done to prevent further false purchase transactions? I have already informed my credit card company.
    Thanks :/

    If the charges are not reflected in the Purchase History, then it's most likely a fraudulent charge to your credit card directly rather than an unauthorized purchase through your iTunes Store account in which case it will be up to your bank to handle. I would, however, suggest that you change your password to your Apple ID, using one that will be difficult to guess, just as a precaution. You can also go here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
    and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store, though if the false charges didn't come through them, there will be nothing they can do.
    Regards.
