HT3702 can you use a debit card with itunes?

hi, i am wanting to use a debit card from hdfc to make purchase on itunes. when i was living in the usa, making purchases with the debit card went smoothly but here in india despite it being an 'international' card it doesnt seem to go through and is rejected. my card works for many other sites including flipkart and amazon. not sure why apple doesnt accept debit cards

As far as I know debit cards are no longer accepted as a valid payment method - they are not listed on this page and there have been a number of posts recently about them being declined. Do you have a credit card that you could use instead ? They are generally considered safer when used on sites where the card details are stored. The card also needs to have been issued by a bank in your country and be registered to exactly the same name and address as you have on your iTunes account.

    The debit card must be the type of debit card that can also be used as a credit card and contains one of the logos listed in that article (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, etc.). Otherwise, that would be correct.
    Having familiarity with the message the OP is receiving, he/she can contact the iTunes Store directly to inquire about why the message is being received, and they may be able to provide some clarification on what is going on. In the meantime, a different card that has one of those logos that is applicable for their country of residence will have to be used.
    If the message says something alone the lines of "your credit card was declined," it would be an issue that would have to be resolved by the financial institution instead.

  • 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.

  • Can you use a sim card with the ipad??

    I am planning on buying an ipad, but was wondering if there was a sim card option for it. I will be mostly using it in a country where wifi is very scarce. Any input?
    Also, what do they mean by 3G enabled.
    Thank you so much for your help!!!

    A lot depends on how much you intend to use it when away from home.
    Would you be in the vicinity of Wifi hotspots?
    The 3G model costs £100 more (an extra 25% of the cheapest model) plus whatever your data plan is.
    If you are not regularly in the vicinity of hotspots, and not likely to be a heavy user, the cheaper option is to purchase a Mifi (yes, Mifi) device from a network such as 3. It is the size of a small mobile phone and connects wirelessly to your iPad. The device and a 12gb download over 12 months costs very little more than the extra price for the 3G model. Other plans are also available with the 3 network. Google 3 Mifi.
    Hope this helps.

  • TS1646 We have several apple devices in our family who use my debit card for itune charges.  I need to find out which device (itune account) these charges are coming from.  Can you help?

    We have several apple devices in our family who use my debit card for itune charges.  I need to find out which device (itune account) these charges are coming from. Can you help?

    You can't tell which device a purhcase was made on, but if your family members each have their own iTunes account to which your card is linked then you can check the purchase history on each of those accounts via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes - that should have 'purchase history' section with a 'see all' link to the right of it

  • Can i use the debit card details for payment in the itunes store

    can i use the debit card details for payment in the itunes store

    Debit cards are no longer accepted in the iTunes Store, it seems. The current valid payment methods are listed here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5552
    You can try contacting the iTunes Store and asking if there is any way to use your card, but they probably will tell you that it's not possible.
    http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
    Using a debit card in any online service where it stores your card is a bad idea in any case since if someone gains access to your account in the service, they can quickly drain your bank account. Credit cards limit your liability, as do prepaid iTunes cards.

    Hi i dont know why i couldnt able to purchase any apps from apple store or in itunes store using my debit card with which i used to buy before ?

    I don't know why but I suspect you are located in the Indian sub continent.   Debit cards appear to be a problem here and while many are accepted in other countries, India seems to be an exception.   Go to ...

  • Can you use external hard drives with the HP Omni 10 5600US

    Since this a Windows tablet, can you use external hard drives with the HP Omni 10 5600US?
    I know there is a micro-sd reader for additional storage but can you use the usb for external hard drives like a regular pc?
    I tried looking at the spec's for this tablet and it said the usb port was host only. I'm not sure what that means exactly.

    Yes you can.  You'll need to purchase a USB OTG (on-the-go) cable.  I recommend using a drive that has its own power supply but I've successfully used small USB powered drives also.
