HT5035 If I have iTunes credits and the required credit card information in, will the funds be taken from the iTunes credits first?

I'm scared to make a purchase incase it gets charged to the credit card instead of my iTunes credits

Hi...
Purchases are deducted from the balance of a redeemd gift card code first. If the cost of the purchase exceeds that balance, then the difference  is charged to your credit card.

  • HT1918 I have been unable to update my credit card information in the payment information section... Help!!

    I'm trying to update my credit card information and it doesn't allow me to do this - it says to contact iTunes support but I don't know why...

    We are fellow users here on these forums, we won't know why either.
    You can contact iTunes Support via this link and ask them for help : 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

  • I have moved country and cant change credit card details

    I have moved to the US and am having troubles with my Apple account. I have been into stores to have it sorted but it is still not right. I am trying to buy an application but it wont accept my American card and wont allow me to change addresses

    You will only be able to update apps if you use the country's App Store that you bought them with. So if you bought apps in the U.S. App Store, you must be signed into that store in order to update those apps. Apps are always tied to the Apple ID that was used to purchase them and to the store in which they were purchased.
    I must admit that I have no firsthand knowledge of this whole process, but I have directed other users as to how to change stores and they have responded that they have done so without issue. I don't see why you would lose your purchases when using another store, but I can't swear to it. But when I try to reason it out, it would make no sense to me -  in the event that you picked up and moved halfway across the world - that you would lose all previous purchases when you move. To me that doesn't make sense. It makes sense that you have to sign into that country store in order to update apps, but it doesn't make sense to me that you have to lose them if you move or have multiple residences.
    I have read stories here from users that have multiple residences in different parts of the world and from what I remember reading, these users signed in and out of stores, depending upon where they were residing at that time.
    Now since you closed that credit card account on your previous country, you will no longer be able to purchase from that country's store, but updating apps is predicated on the fact that you already own them anyway.
    I wish I had the absolute definitive answer for you, but this is the best that I can come up with.

  • TS2446 my account only says "account disabled"?  It does not say for securtiy reasons.  I went in and changed my credit card information and address.  It is still disabled.  Please help.

    My Iphone displays "Your apple ID has been disabled" when I try to update apps.  Itunes account also with same display.  Can someone help?
    I have contacted Apple several weeks ago and they said they would "review and fix this" however continue not to work. 

    First, you need to contact
    iTunes Store Support
    http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
    After that, there is a good chance they will then refer you to the AST. So lets see what happens.

  • HT1918 I deleted a acct on itunes and tried to put in the same credit/debit information it will not verify it?? HELP

  • I downloaded a free game and my credit card informed about a spending of 1 dol...  What is it about?  Was it not a free game?

    Hi.  I've just downloaded a free game (gizmonauts) and inmediatly my credit card informed about a spending of 1 dol...  What is it about?  Was it not a free game?

    You may well get additional temporary authorization holds on your credit card.  Anytime you use the iTunes or App Store and you are asked to verify your account, which happens periodically (especially if you have not used it in awhile), an authorization hold may appear.
    Again, they are not actual charges - think of it as Apple's billing system simply asking the credict card issuer "if I charged a dollar to this account, would the charge be honored?".  When the bank's system replies affirmative, the hold is removed and disappears from your account.  But no charge is actually submitted to the bank, nor processed by the bank.

  • HT4528 I have two iTunes account.  Is there a way of merging the two accounts.  The original account was created several years ago prior to purchase of an iphone. How and where do I go to check my credit card information?

    I created an iTunes ago several years ago under this email: At this time I did not own an Apple product. All songs purchased and downloaded were in my lap top.
    When I purchased my first iPhone...another iTunes account was created under the iPhone ID:
    There is NO ONE that can help or assist me. IF instructed properly and correctly...I can maneuver thru my systems.  I would like to combine the two accounts. Is this possible?  There is NO logical reason to have 2 accounts out there...
    I am upgrading to the iPhone 5s on the 20th of this month...Can someone please help me move all information?
    Also, I need to know how to check/review the credit card information in my iTunes account in my current iPhone 5. Not able to make purchases....AND there is cash in my account.
    Not difficult questions...just need someone to take the time to help me.
    Thank you.

  • I have two small charges on my credit card from the itunes store. I tried to call for answers as to what they were for. A recording told me to go to this website and i still can not find the items charged anywhere.

    I have two small charges on my credit card from iTunes store and I would like to find out what they are. The number listed is a recording and tells me to come to the website for answers. There is no sign of any purcases in my itunes store. Where can I get a person to talk to from I tunes? Has any one had this happen to them?

    Look at you purchase history.
    Open itunes, click on your name in the top right corner and go to your account and look.
    BTW, there is no telephone support for itunes at all.

  • I have new ipad2 and the iTunes have only podcasts and iTunes U options. I simply can't download music or vidoes. Please help!

    i have new ipad2 and the iTunes have only podcasts and iTunes U options. I simply can't download music or vidoes. Please help!

    Not all content types are available in all countries, and unfortunately where you are you will only have apps, podcasts, iTunes U and free books - the full list of what is available where is shown on this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3599 . As the terms of use of the stores state that you can only use your own country's store, you also can't get music or films from Apple from other country's stores.
    Are there other music and/or film purchase download sites that you can use in the UAE ? For music you can also copy your own CDs and sync them to the iPad

    Those are most likely authorization holds and they will eventually fall off the account without charging you any money.
