I cannot redeem gift card

Whenever I try to redeem my gift card, it asks me for my password.  When I type it in and submit, it clears the field. My gift card balance shows as $10 in the corner by my name. ???

I have finally figured out this very frustrating situation. Ok I had the same problem, I have a $16.00 balance but when I click on the price next to the item I wanted to purchase it said "do you want to buy" I said yes, then it asked me to verify my billing information...which is stupid because I'm paying with a gift card. So just say "yes" to the billing info and when it pulls up your information just click the "NONE" as your payment option next to all the credit card options. Then click "done" and then it will let you purchase with your gift card. Really weird and frustrating. Hope this helps some people.

    Do you have a Credit Card on your iTunes account? If so, it wants that CCV verified....just a verification - nothing else. Your Gift Card will be debited first for any purchases as long as it has a balance.

  • Cannot redeem gift card due to login issue

    I'm so annoyed with Apple! I bought a gift card tried to redeem it and I'm logged in to itunes but it gives me the please login red warning.

    I had the same problem and I solved it by redeeming my iTunes gift card on my iPod Touch. Doesn't really fix the problem, but I found a way around it!

  • Cannot redeem gift card

    I entered the code for a $25 gift certificate which was accepted and a $25 credit is displayed. However, it will not let me purchase anything as it requires updated credit card info. I do not want to charge a credit card, I want to use the account credit. I can find no help on the site or any way to contact apple or itunes. How can I use the credit?

    Sounds like you have a CC entered in iTunes and that CC has expired.
    You will need to remove the CC from your iTunes account. Select None as a payment option.
    If it is expired, for some reason it seems you need to enter a valid CC number before you can then remove it.

    Sir,
    I thought So too but then I went to Itunes Library and try and buy a single song from an album for $1.29.  Now my Itunes Gift card balance is $ 7.10 as I mentioned earlier. it still did not let me buy and kept trying billing my Visa card.
    Should I restart my PC and Itunes and retry. What do you suggest?
    regards

    Any time you've changed anything in your billing, it does this once to very things.

    Hi ChuckN,
    I have installed the update at home on an older 27" iMac, a new retina macbook pro 15", an older macbook air  and a recent 21" iMac and on none of them does the redeem by camera option show up.
    I would say to our north American friends this is something that has been working for you for a while and has only been announced as available in AU with the latest update for our region this week. Sadly updates don't always work straight up.
    I am hopeful there is something I have not turned on but think I may need to wait for another update.
    good luck Chuck!

  • I get error 5002 when trying to redeem gift cards , what do I need to do to fix this.

    I get error 5002 when trying to redeem gift cards, what can I do to fix this?

    http://store.apple.com/us
    I have been trying to fix this myself and just found a way tonight. This started happening after I downloaded a new version. I tried several other approaches and was unsuccessful until I was directed to the support website.  I searched for 5002 error.  I chose specific conditions and alert message.  Then chose "Error 5002" which gave a little detail. 
    Basically I had to go to the above site and change my password and some other account information.  It didn't work when I tried in my actual ITUNES application.  I think because my account was so old and they upgraded some security items like stronger passwords etc., so the old stuff was no longer good enough.  I have now redeemed two gift cards.  I hope it helps.

  • TS1292 do i have to have my ipod touch with me to redeem gift card or can i loan via computer to the ipod so it will be available on the ipod

    do i have to have my ipod touch with me to redeem gift card or can i loan via computer to the ipod so it will be available on the ipod

    All the music should be on the computer so you can just sync the music back to the iPod after you restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod. Regarding app data, just export (email/file sharing etc) as much as possible so you can import it back.

  • HT201209 how do i fine out my account balance when i redeem gift cards

    If I redeem gift cards, where can I see my account balance?  Also, if I purchase apps, games, etc., How does it know to use the gift card vs. my credit card on file?
    Thx!

    My account's balance shows at the top left of the store's page on my computer's iTunes, and by logging in to view my account via the Store > View Account menu option. On my iOS devices it shows at the bottom of, for example, the Featured tab in the App Store app under my account id (or you can view your account via Settings > iTunes & App Stores and it should show on the screen that you are taken to).
    When purchasing items from the store your account's balance should be automatically used first (you can't gift content from your balance) - from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5582 :
    When making purchases, content credits are used first, followed by Gift Certificate, iTunes Card, or Allowance Account credits; your credit card or PayPal account is then charged for any remaining balance.

  • HT2105 is there a limit on redeeming gift cards per day? how about purchasing in app?

    is there a limit on redeeming gift cards per day? how about purchasing in app?

    AFAIK, there's no limit to how many gift cards can be redeemed in a 24 hour period. Same for In-App purchases.
