  • HT2589 the first time you create account, always need a credit card? the option of "NONE" is hidden

    the first time you create account, always need a credit card? the option of "NONE" is hidden
    my friend cant download apps, because of that reason.

    No you don't always need to enter credit card details, it just depends upon how you create the account - unless the instructions on this page are followed when creating a new account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    then you will need to entercredit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store.
    If you don't have or don't want to enter credit card details then you will need to create a new account, and this time use the instructions on that HT2534 page when creating it. If you want to use the same email address then you will need to replace it on that account first e.g. by logging into it via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes or via http://appleid.apple.com

  • HT5622 Do you have to enter credit card info to set up an apple id acct? even if I am only using for free downloads and never intend to purchase anything?

    Do you have to enter credit card info to set up an apple id acct? even if I am only using for free downloads and never intend to purchase anything?

    If you have already created the Apple ID, yes.  You can add the card - it will authorize $1.00 (USD) which will be released.  At that point, you can then change the payment method to None - Then done.
    If you would rather create a different appleID without a credit card, follow the instructions here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534

  • Do I need a credit card for my apple account

    I have to update my apps and it's not letting me because I need a credit card is there a way to update my apps without a credit card?

    Hi Desimoni77,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    You should not need to add a credit card to your iTunes Store account to update apps or download free apps. You may want to review your iTunes Store account information using the steps in this article:
    Change or remove your payment information from your iTunes Store account (Apple ID)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1918
    You can also contact iTunes Store Support for more help:
    If you need help changing your payment information, credit card details, or billing information, contact iTunes Store support. Or you may find the answer to your question below:
    If you change your payment method, make sure your account information matches the credit card information on file with your financial institution.
    If you use an AOL screen name to sign in to the iTunes Store, editing your information on the Account Information page won't update your AOL account. If you need to update your AOL account information, contact AOL.
    If your previous payment wasn't accepted, you may need to change your payment information.
    Best Regards,
    Jeremy

  • Need a credit card to add child account. Not a ATM VISA?

    Apple says I need to submit a credit card not just a ATM Visa. Why is this? Could it be that it is harder to cancel and dispute the fraud which apple is pushing. I sure wish I had a business plan that first took adults to the cleaner now they are attracting our children with so called parent account. No kids don't need parents permission. And when you try and set your card back to none. You get a support Tech telling you that it to keep people from not paying their bills. I said where is the PCI standards where you don't charge an account without authorization. I was told apple does not need to be compliant with the credit card industry.

    This is because congress wrote the law in such a way as to make a debit card invalid as a mechanism to legally sign to permit a minor to access on-line services.
    As ed2345 states, it's a legal requirement. Apple has no real choice in the matter. If this creates a problem for you, contact your congressman.

  • Need a credit Card to have a account?

    Is it necessary that I have a cedit card to make a account in the music store?
    PC   Windows XP  

    You need either a credit card, an iTunes Music card, an iTunes Music Store gift certificate, or a free song code from one of the many promotions from various companies.

  • Why do I need a credit card just to update album art?

    Are there any other options? Or are the financially challenged doomed to wallow in album artless dejection? Again, I would point out that I never had any problems with WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER. (see organizing by artist/album discussion threads)

    This is not the only way to obtain artwork.
    Go to Google Image Search and type in the artist/album name and click on search images. 

Double click on a picture you like, then at the top of that page click on "see full size image". 

When you get that image, simply copy/paste it into the space for album artwork in iTunes.
    
Make sure you select the album in the browser of iTunes before you copy/paste. 

    If you don’t want to copy/paste, then iTunes Art Importer is a nice free program to do it for you.
    Just to be clear, you'll need a credit card to "create" an iTunes store account assuming you don't have one already.

    Help me please!
    Thank you.

    You need to have a payment method on file. If the apps are free you will not be charged anything. Either enter your credit card information or purchase and enter an iTunes gift card.

  • HT201303 If item is free why do you need a **** credit card!! Tired of items saying free if you are charging me refund my **** funs I will post on all networks

    I tried to download a free game and music app that are free then it pop up you need a **** credit card what the **** for.. Tired of being nickel and dimmed by company so how about fixing this ****!!! Very upset

    If the game is shown as "free" in the App Store, it is completely free to download, but many apps have "in-app purchases" intended to separate you from your money.
    The solution is simple - don't use those apps. Uninstall them and write a review in the App Store explaining their underhandedness.
    To disable "in-app purchases" go to Settings > General > Restrictions and turn "In-App Purchases" off. Don't forget your Restrictions passcode.

    I am needing to change my credit card information in my account by it is declining me. Do you know why?

    What do you mean by "declining you"? In this discussions case, it was possible the user was using a debit card https://discussions.apple.com/message/22737457#22737457. If this is what you are experiencing, this may solve your problem.

  • HT1918 I need to change my payment method from credit card to bank checking account, how do i do that. When you go to settings on iphone it only has cedit card options. need to do this quick my payment is do Monday 2-24-2014. Thank you.

    I need to change my payment method from credit card to bank checking account, how  do i do that with my iphone. the only options when you go to settings is credit card, I want you to debit my checking account. I need to know asap, my payment is due this Monday 2-24-2014. Thank you

    We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
    The payment methods that are available in your country will show on your account. If debit cards aren't available on that screen then you won't be able to use it as your payment method.

  • HT1918 Why do you need my credit card information when I purchase songs from an already purchased Itunes gift card?

    Why do you need my credit card information when I purchase songs from an already purchased Itunes gift card?  If I cannot purchase goods with the prepuchased gift cards, then the card is useless and I want my money back.

    We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
    Just because you are being asked to enter your credit card details doesn't mean that it will be charged for your purchases.
    Is it a newly created account ? If it is then unless you use the instructions on this page when creating an account then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used in the store : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534

  • How do you get around needing a credit card for setting up family sharing?

    How do you get around needing a credit card for setting up family sharing?

    I appreciate the replies about needing to setup a credit card for agreeing to pay for purchases and letting someone else be the Family Organizer.  The purpose of my question is to know if there is a way around apples requirement to have a valid payment method on file...we have money in our apple account (use iTunes gift cards) and I do not want to store my CC info at apple.  It seems like very odd that money in your account would not be enough to setup Family Sharing.
    Very frustrating and just about ready to get rid of all the 15 apple products we currently have.
    Khuerter,
    Having a credit card when you set up as Family Organizer is a legal requirement to prove that you are taking financial responsibility for the others on the account.  As Gail noted, there is not a way around that.
    Once the account is set up, the Family Organizer can remove the credit card and replace it by a debit card.
