HT5622 How do I pay by credit card for an app when there is a credit on my account?
I have a credit on my account. I want to buy a song on itunes with my credit card and not use the credit. How do I bypass the credit?
You can't specify how an item is billed, if you have a credit on your account then that will automatically be used - your credit card will only be charged when your balance is zero.
If you want your credit card to be charged then you could try gifting the song to yourself (I haven't tried it but I think that you should be able to gift to yourself) - you can't use an account's balance for gifting, you can only use a credit card.

HT5622 How can I get an Apple ID for US store when I am in another country?
hi,
I am now in China, and I have bought a iPad there, I want to download apps in US store, but I can't . Could you please help me?
Thanks,
Alan.You can't, you can only use your own country's store - to be able to use the US store you will need to be in the US with a US billing address on your account. If there are apps that you would like which aren't in the Chinese store then you can try requesting that they be added, but ultimately it's the developers that will have to grant Apple a license to have them there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

How can I use the credit on my account instead of credit card to buy apps?
I have a gift card credit on my account but when I want to buy an app it takes me to my credit card details. How can I use my credit on my account instead of credit card?
You shouldn't have to put in a credit card, no, but from time to time the iTunes Store seems for some reason to try to insist on one. If just confirming your mailing address doesn't stop it from complaining, go here:
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store.

I have registered a credit card for purchasing apps from the app store. My bank has issued a new chip based card and now the 16 digit numbers have changed. How do I register the new card for flowless purchases?
Go to Apple Menu > App Store > View my account > sign in and then edit the payment details with the new card details.
I am assuming that your card and supporting bank are in the same country as your residential (billing) address and that you are using the App Store of that country. -

There isn't a phone number for iTunes Support.
If you've forgotten your answers to your security questions then you can get them reset : If you forgot the answers to your Apple ID security questions
If you have a credit card on your account then its details have to complete - and asking for their details is also a way of checking that you have a valid billing address in that country. As long as you are buying content for yourself and not trying to gift content (you can't use your balance for gifting) then the purchase price (plus any applicable taxes) should be deducted from your balance. If it's not then you contact iTunes Support : 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 -
How can I get a sim card for Japan and will it work with my locked Iphone 6
How can I get a sim card for Japan and will it work with my locked Iphone 6
You cannot use a SIM card on a carrier locaked phone, other than a sim from the carrier the phone is locked to. You must first get the carrier it is locked to, to unlock your phone. Apple does not unlock phones.

i was charged no my credit card for the app store registeration and i am not able to login, i tried to use the forget password options but it isnt going through
Apple id : [email protected]If the old ID is yours, and if your current ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

Do I need a credit card for the app store to download free games
Hi, Do I need a credit card for the app store to download games
Hello yongxiahuang,
It sounds like you would like to download free apps without a credit card on your apple ID. You should be able to update your billing information payment method to None with this article:
iTunes Store: Changing your payment information
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1918?viewlocale=de_de&locale=en_CA
Changing your payment information using a computer
Open iTunes.
Choose Store > Sign In.
Enter your Apple ID and password and click Sign In.
Choose Store > View Account.
Enter your account password and click View Account.
From the Apple Account Information page, click Edit to the right of Payment Type.
Note: You can find the payment methods that the iTunes Store accepts in the Payment Type section. If you don't want a payment method on your account, select None in the Payment Type section.
Click the Done button after you've updated all of your information.
Step 6 in particular.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

I entered my debit card for a app latter when I went to update all it asked password as usual then said sign in required took me to page sayin my card has been declined use alternate I don't have alternate but now it won't let me download free apps niether
Do you have enough funds in your bank account?
otherwise iTunes sometimes black lists card if there are too many fradulent purchases
Reason why they might black list a card is possibly you call in for alot of fradulent purchases
One more reason can be because iTunes does actually limit the amount you can change payment methods
Call AppleCare Phone support and have your call directed to iTunes Store

Users can obtain the iWorks and iLife applications free, if they purchased a Mac after the beginning of October 2013.
Older Mac purchases require a paid purchase of these applications.
