HT2736 I just updated iTunes and I don't see the option to gift the app? what gives?

I just updated iTunes and I tried to gift an app from my PC. The options is no longer selectable. What gives?

OK, so it sounds like you are trying to do the gift on your Mac. I also tried it on my Mac with an App I had already purchased, and you are right - it doesn't give you the option to gift it....on the Mac. I looked up the App you were asking about, and based on what I could see in the iTunes Store for Apps, and on your indication that you have an iPhone 4, it appears that this is an iPhone app?
If it is, then you can gift it (even if you have purchased it) via the iPhone App Store (I tested this with my purchased app that showed no "gift" option on my Mac). Click on the App Store on your phone, do a search for your app, then click on the share option at the top right hand corner. When I tried this on my iPhone using the same app that I had looked for in iTunes on my Mac, it came up with a window that had the "Twitter/Email/Facebook/etc. options, but it also had a "Gift" option.
So, try to gift it via your App Store app on your phone.
Hope you have the same results I did!
P.S. I have also sent in a support ticket to iTunes Store Support for this - clearly there is an issue.... (sorry about the misunderstanding - it doesn't work the way it is supposed to!)
Cheers,
GB

  • I have just updated iTunes and now it doesn't recoginize my nano or iphone

    I have just updated iTunes and it doesn't recognize my devices

    Hi, I had the same problem with my iPod nano 7th generation.  I found the answer on another forum.  Apple support instructs to uninstall and reinstall iTunes.  However, you must uninstall ALL Apple software, then install iTunes.  I rebooted in between steps (i.e. uninstalled all Apple software, rebooted, installed iTunes, rebooted).  iTunes now recognizes my iPod again.

  • How do I turn on my ipad, I just got it and I don't know how to get to the home screen. Also, is itunes free on the ipad

    How do I turn on my ipad, I just got it and I don't know how to get to the homescreen. Everytime I turn it on there is a black screen, the white charger, and the blue itunes circle. Also, are itunes free.?

    You must activate the iPad within iTunes on your computer. Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes on your computer (read the minimum requirements for the iPad printed on the iPad box) and connect the iPad to your computer with the supplied cable to a 2.0 USB port - not a port on a hub- a port on your computer. iTunes should start and take you through the process.
    iTunes on the iPad is a store where you purchase media - it is not the music player. The iPod app is the music player. Both apps are pre installed on the iPad.

    I just updated itune and getting an error mscvr80,dll missing.  I uninstall and reinstall and getting the same message.  help

    DLL files typically do not affect Mac OS X systems.  Are you sure you are running Mac OS X?  If you are running some version of iTunes Windows, the forum for that is here:

  • TS1717 just updated itunes and it keeps crashing

    just updated itunes and it keeps crashing. where can i get the previous version of itunes.

    Hi there and Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Ok, so, do me a favour, open up Quicktime and see if that opens up ok. If it does, fine, if not, what does it do and are there any error messages involved?
    You may want to work thru some steps outlined here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302538
    Does this help out at all?
    Try reading this one also:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302386
    I would also scan for viruses and spyware as these have been known to cause this errorless crash and burn of iTunes.
    Keep updated on your progress and if you have any questions.
    Good Luck, got my fingers crossed for ya.

    I had to create new apple ID as mentioned there and then the stupid "None" option showed up.  Don't understand why this though!

  • HT1923 I have just updated itunes and now I can't print the playlist when I burn a list to cd. How do  make a cd case cover or list of songs?

    I just recently updated itunes and now I can't print the playlist or print a cd case cover. I want to at least print a list of songs to go in the cd case. How do I do that?

    beggsc54,  There were some printing bugs in iTunes 11.0 which reportedly have been fixed in 11.0.1.  If you haven't upgraded yet, install the latest iTunes and try again.
