I bought a 3rd ipad for my daughter in CA. I synced w/my PC to load some apps since she has no PC. Now I am in Iraq with PC and my iPad. If I buy my her iTunes gift cards, can she buy apps and music w/out using my pin and charging to my Credit card?

I bought another iPad for my daugther.  Because she has no PC, I loaded her iPad with apps from My PC. Now she is in Oceanside CA.  And I am in Iraq with my iPad and PC.. My question is: How can my daughter load some apps of her own?  If I buy her iTunes gift cards, can she redeem them on her iPad with out using my Pin number (as that would give her access to my credit card)! I prefer to gifted her purchases, not allow her to purchase with access to my credit card. Can this be done?

well if the ipad is on your itunes account then her apps and music etc will be billed to you. but if you give her gift cards you should take off your credit card because itunes won't tell you when you are all through with your gifted money and are back to useing your credit card until after you have made a purchase

  • I have an ipad and just bought a second one for my daughter and she wants all my music on her ipad.  We both have our own itunes accounts and music match wont let me put music on hers. how do i get around this?

    I have an ipad and just bought a second one for my daughter and she wants all my music on her ipad.  All the music is under my itunes account yet she has her own itunes account so she can have her own apps and purchase apps with gift cards (She's only 9)
    I subscibe to music match under my account but it wont let me put my music on her ipad under hers or even my itunes account.  I get some sort of 90 day error message.  How do i get around this so I can let her have my music on her ipad?

    iTunes Match is not sharable across Apple IDs. The best way to get the music on her iPad is to leave hers signed into her Apple ID on the iTunes Store and sync via USB.

  • I have just bought a mini ipad for my daughter set it up in my apple id so she could keep all her apps games etc, how do i set up a seperate account for her ipad and also keep my own id @

    I have just bought a mini ipad for my daughter and used my apple id to set it up for her so she can keep all her apps and downloads of my ipad that she was using, i was wondering how do i give her, her own apple id so that she can keep all her apps and then i can two seperate accounts ?

    You cannot transfer the purchases to another account. What she has purchased with your account will always be tied to your ID. That's the way that it works. You can have her create her own Apple ID to use with Cloud account, FaceTime and Messages.
    But if you create a new ID for her, she will have to flip flop between the two Apple ID's in order to update apps, and if she wants to make purchases with her own ID, you also have to consider the fact that she may run the risk of locking herself out of her own ID by downloading a past purchase using your ID, after she starts buying with her own ID.

  • Finally bought another iPad for my daughter

    Just bought an iPad for my daughter & want to know if it is possible to transfer all the games & apps I bought for her from my iPad to her new iPad, or do I need to buy them all over again from the App Store?
    Registered her new iPad using the same Apple ID as for my iPad, but of course named it differently.

    You may be able to re download the purchases for free using the same Apple ID. It may depend on your geographical location.

  • HT2534 I have money on my iTunes account.  Can I purchase apps for my iPad with this credit?

    I have a credit on my iTunes account.  Can I purchase apps for my iPad with this credit and how do I do it?

    Yes. You can use any funds that you have available in iTunes for the App Store, iTunes, iBooks or the Mac App Store. Just go to the app store and tap on the app that you want to download. If the credit is available, it will be deducted from your account when you make the purchase.
    You can swipe to the bottom of the featured tab in the app store to view your account balance.

  • TS1702 Hello, I have a new ipad for my daughter. Do I have to pay again for iphoto, pages, etc to go on it or does it duplicate these. I cannot find a way to do this?

    Hello helpful people ...I have a brand new ipad for my daughter and I. I have an iMac for which I have bought Aperture, Pages and iPhoto is also on it. Do I have to buy these all again for the ipad or will it duplicate them onto the ipad........is this a blonde moment and its really silly!!!??? Not massive user of Itunes so struggling a bit.......

    You don't.  As has been said you need to buy the iPad versions from the iOS App Store.
    Tap on this icon on the iPad:

  • HT204088 I have a charge on my credit card from Itunes for $15.96. I believe is for the Date plan on my Ipad. I did not authorize this charge.

    Please tell why a charge on my Credit Card for $15.96 on 4/26. I didn't make any charges to itunes for that amount.

    Look at your purchase history.

    Hi I input itunes gift card for £15. I bought songs to value of £8.11 and was charged to my credit card. Have i done something wrong. Thanks

    These are user to user forums, you are not speaking to Apple here.
    I would advise that you review your purchase history:

  • We bought an iphone 4s for our daughter. We transfered it to straight talk. She can make calls and text no problem. She can use the WiFi but is unable to use the internet or mms. How do we update the APN?

    We bought an iphone 4s for our daughter. We transfered it to straight talk. She can make calls and text no problem. She can use the WiFi but is unable to use the internet or mms. How do we update the APN?

    To clarify for anyone who is still having any problems doing this.
    1. Unlock your phone with the carrier ( I know the process will work if it is jail broken but I am assuming you dont want to void the warranty on your phone) NOTE: even if you purchased the phone outright at Wal-Mart it is still locked to ATT so you will have to unlock the phone.  If it's already unlocked skip to step 2.  This works and will work even if you update the phone. 
    1a Here is the link to unlock a ATT iphone. Simply follow the instructions https://www.att.com/deviceunlock/client/en_US/
    2. Get a T- mobile SIM. Even if you don't want the service, if you feign interest, they will send you one for free or 99cents. If you need it now you can get one at a T-mobile store too.
    3. Once you have both your Straight talk SIM and your T-mobile SIM follow these instructions:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFFf5uqk18M
    4. If you have any remaining questions look at all the responses posted previously on this thread or check out the Howard Forums Wiki: http://wiki.howardforums.com/index.php/Straight_Talk_iPhone
    Everything should work flawlessly at this point.  If not let me know and I'm happy to help when I can.  I hope this makes doing this very easy for everyone in the future. God Bless -J

    My daughter has shared my iTunes account for the past 10 years. Now that she has established her own iTunes account, how can she transfer content from my account to her new account?

    Hi Dennis,
    If you want to share iTunes purchases between multiple accounts in the same family you could use Family Sharing.

    Do what Roger says above.
    Do you have 'in-app' purchases enabled on an iPhone/iPad or other device that kids or other family members use ?  That could be the issue.
    If not change your iTunes Store password to try to prevent whatever is doing this making further charges.
    Also if you can't find the cause, talk to your cc company.

  • I lived in the US for a few years, spent a fortune on iTunes [my then local Apple ID account].  Now I live in South Africa and want to use Match.  I have a local credit card but how do I use my new / 2nd Apple ID and gain access to all my US music??

    You have to be in a country to use its store - you will need to be in the US and have a US billing address on your account to be able to use the US store (that applies to buying and redownloading).
    You can use iTunes Match in South Africa, do you not have a backup copy of all of your US iTunes purchases so that you can subscribe to it and upload those that aren't in the South African store to it ?

    Hello, Lynne. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    Here is a helpful article that explains how iTunes purchases are billed. 
    iTunes Store: How iTunes Store purchases are billed
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5582
    When using iTunes to purchase content for the first time on a new device, it may require you to verify your payment information as a way to authenticate your device.  If this not a new device attempting to access iTunes store and prompting you provide payment information, there could be an outstanding balance.  This article will show you how to verify you purchase history and invoices.

    Also, you can change the payment method as none as long as there isn't an outstanding balance on the account.

  • I am having trouble buying songs on Itunes.  When I hit "buy", nothing happens.  Any suggestions?

    I am having trouble buying songs on Itunes.  When I hit "buy", nothing happens.  Any suggestions?

    I have the same problem, but discovered I can 'gift' itunes. I can't update my itunes version because my operating system doesn't support it and I can't update my operating system because my laptop is too old. 2008. have rebooted,  retried, done all I can think of... still not working. Waiting for I support to respond.
