I can't use my free gift card about back to school

I buy a macbook pro online and get a free gift card. I have received the macbook and the gift card, but I can't use it. It shows its not valid. What can I do?

everytime i click on buy it doesn't work.
Perhaps you could explain a bit more.
How do you know it "doesn't work"?
What does or does not happen?
FYI: If you are in Canada, you cannot use a gift card balance to make App store purchases.

    Why can't I use an iTunes gift card in Canada to purchase apps for my iTouch?
    Inquiries to the iTunes Store have yielded only the following explanation:
    "Due to tax laws and commerce restrictions for software in Canada, customers residing in Canada may only purchase games and applications using a credit card."
    What these "laws/restrictions" might be have never been identified.
    Can I somehow exchange the giftcards that I have for App gift cards?
    There are no "app gift cards". Again, you can only use a credit card to purchase software in the Canadian iTunes Store.
    Problem is I don't have a credit card to purchase the apps.
    Perhaps you could obtain one of the "prepaid" credit cards some banks offer. If not, then the only way you'll be able to buy apps is to get someone to allow you to use their credit card.

  • Do you have to used a credit card, or can you use an iTunes gift card?

    I've always used iTunes gift cards for my purchase.  Can I use an iTunes gift card, or do I have to use a credit card to purchase a Match subscription?

    You can use Gift cards BUT you must have a valid credit card on your account.

  • HT201209 Can you use an iTunes gift card to purchase something actually in an app? (Like buy coins in the app and use your gift card)

    Can you use an iTunes gift card to purchase things actually in an app? (Buy "coins" using the gift card?)

    No idea, but it seems like you should be able to. You can give it a try, but will have to figure out some way around the automatic 1-click ordering that the App Store now does by default.
    It certainly seems like something deserving of a feedback form submission, though ...

  • Can you use an iTunes gift card on two different accounts?

    can you use an iTunes gift card on two different accounts? on two different computers?

    A Gift card will add a specified amount of mony to an iTunes account identified with a specific Apple ID (email address and password combination).
    If that Account is set up on both Devices, then they will share the money balance in that account. And can purchase things in the store with that balance.

  • Can you use an itunes gift card to purchase ibooks?

    Can you use an itunes gift card to purchase ibooks on your iphone? If yes, how? When I attempt to purchase a book it automatically appears that it will automatically charge my stored card.
    Thanks!

    To use an iTune Gift Card to buy books...
    Open iTunes on your computer and click on the iTunes Store.
    You'll need to be signed in...
    Click on the little House icon in the dark gray bar across the top. (or Shift+Command+H)
    On the right side of the page under Quick Links click Redeem and enter your code.
    Then it will show your credit balance in the dark gray bar across the top next to your account name to let you know how much you have to spend.
    Then as you buy books, it'll deduct from the credit balanace.
    There is a distinction between, iTunes Gift Card and Apple Gift Card.
    Apple Gift Card: can be used to purchase Apple hardware and accessories at any Apple Retail Store, the Apple Online Store...
    iTunes Gift Card: To give music, movies, TV shows, apps, books, or anything on the iTunes Store, the App Store, the iBooks Store or the Mac App Store, select an iTunes Gift Card
