I can't turn in-app purchases on for my iPad!

For reasons unclear, in-app purchases are turned off on my iPad, and I can't get them back on. I have never knowingly turned them off, nor enabled restrictions up till now. Once I discovered they were turned off, I tried enabling restrictions to see if I could then turn in-app purchases back on, but while all the other options became active, in-app purchases was grayed-out, and I can't toggle it back to allowing the purchases. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

AFAIK... In-App purchases require a Credit Card associated to your account.

I have recently purchased an iTunes gift card to make purchases in my favorite game but for some reason I can't make in app purchases. Someone said that I have to have a credit card but I don't want one of those. Can someone help?

I bought an iTunes gift card to purchase certain things in my favorite app. Well when I try to buy things inside the game it does not give me the option to approve the purchase and it never shows up. I have reset the app, I have deleted the app and downloaded again, I have turned my ipod off and on, I have made sure all updates are up to date and nothing has changed. I saw a similar question like mine and the answer was that you have to have a credit card linked to your iTunes account to make in app purchases and I was thinking they were right until I talked to a few friends who cancelled their credit cards and took them off of the account and can still make in app purchases so that can't be the issues. Can someone please help me this is driving me crazy I have talked to iTunes support but they weren't much support.

Not clear what you mean by iTunes help. You can contact iTunes support by:

How can i make in-app purchases?

How can i make in-app purchases?

The exact mechanism depends on the app from which you wish to purchase. Consult the documentation for the app. You'll want to make sure that In-App purchases are not turned off in Settings/General/Restrictions.

Regarding not being able to make an in-app purchase: all it says is that i can't make In-app purchases at this time.

Contact iTunes store support for this. Go to http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ and click the blue link next to the green shopping bag. Follow the steps and send them an email explaining your issue.

.... And you can put them on as many iDevices as you own. There is no limit as long as you use the same Apple ID and iTunes account for all of the devices.

Again, Apps will always be tied to the account from which they were purchased and will always have to be updated using that account.
Always, mean exactly that, always.
If you want them to be on your account then you need to buy them using your account.

I understand it is from the App Store. That is part of iTunes. You still need to contact them for assistance, or you can try Express Lane, https://expresslane.apple.com/GetproductgroupList.action

HT204088 Why can't I see the purchase history from the ipad? I mean, I can buy apps and in game content directly from my iPad, but I have have to install iTunes on my PC to see the purchase history? What kind of deal is that?

Welcome to Apple Communities
You don't need to install iTunes for the purchase history. You can see it in your iPad (iTunes > Purchased), but you need to install it if you want the order numbers

Do you mean via your computer's iTunes ? If you do then no, you can only do so within the app on your device.
