I have entered my iTunes code, but am unable to use the amount on my card to purchase songs in my wish list

Because of a past experience with fraudulant charges with Apple, I wish now to pay for my downloads with an iTunes card.  I purchased one for $20, logged on to my account, entered the "redeem" code that was on the new card, and then went into the iTunes store and added songs to my wish list.  When I was finished, I pushed the "Buy All" button to purchases all the songs on my wish list, which totaled less than the amount shown on my account that I had downloaded from my iTunes card. But I found myself in this "loop" of needing to sign into my account (which I already was because it displayed my name) and then it would ask for the "redeem" code.  When I would once again enter that same code from the back of my iTunes card, it told me it was unable to use it because that code had already been redeemed.
Yes, I had loaded that into my account, and it still showed the full amount of the card value next to my name.  That did not change or show it being reduced by the amount I had wanted to purchase from my wish list, so I knew I still have that amount sitting in my "bank" waiting to be spent.
How do I access it, or better yet,  get out of this loop of log in/redeem/already redeemed mess.

Click on the "Start" button. Click "Run." Type the word "cmd" in the open box. When the DOS screen comes up, type "netsh winsock reset." Press "Enter." Type "exit" to close the DOS window and go back to Windows.
Restart the computer.

  • How to purchase apps in App Store? When I am trying to buy those apps, it is asking for my card details. I have entered my debit card number and then it asked for 3 digit security code. I have entered cvv secure code but it is showing an invalid security

    Debit cards are no longer accepted in the iTunes Store, it seems. The current valid payment methods are listed here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5552
    You can try contacting the iTunes Store and asking if there is any way to use your card, but they probably will tell you that it's not possible.
    http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
    Using a debit card in any online service where it stores your card is a bad idea in any case since if someone gains access to your account in the service, they can quickly drain your bank account. Credit cards limit your liability, as do prepaid iTunes cards.

  • I have an iphone 4. I disconnected it from my iTunes account but I am still using the iphone and the Apple ID. If I make a purchase will it work? Also, how can I reconnect my iphone to my Apple ID?

    I have an iphone 4.
    I disconnected it from my iTunes account but I am still using the iphone and the Apple ID.
    If I make a purchase will it work?
    Also, how can I reconnect my iphone to my Apple ID?

    Do you mean that you removed the phone from the 'manage devices' section of your iTunes account ? If you do then that won't stop you being able to purchase items on your phone - you only need to be logged into an account to be able to purchase with it.
    If you do mean the 'manage devices' section then you can associate, or re-associate, a device (or computer) by using iTunes Match, or automatic downloads, or redownloading past purchases on it : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627

  • HT2204 Althrough I have updated my credit card information, but still unable to use the apple ID.

    Althrough I have updated my credit card information, but still unable to use the apple ID.

    If you are making use of a "subscription" desktop application the subscription has to be "active" (paid up).
    Once your updated info is processed you'll be able to use the subscription application.
    As Bernd wrote - Adobe Reader is free (download, install, use).
    Be well...

  • 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

  • Can connect to VPN but still unable to use the internet

    I have a MacBook Pro 5, 5 Running OS X 10.6.2 i have always been able to join my uni network and use the internet through VPN up until recently, I am not aware of any changes to my computer that could have caused this, i have had ICT Services at the University look at it and they have been unsuccessful, all the settings are correct and no other macs running 10.6.2 have this issue.
    I am able to connect to the VPN and the sent bar in network preferences shows activity but there is no activity in the received bar.
    What could the cause of this issue be?

    I'm assuming you meant "10.0.60.1-50".
    Those are 2 different subnets. The ranges you give for PPTP and L2TP should be on the same subnet as the network you are vpn'ing into, but not overlapping. - eg. if the internal network you are vpn'ing into is using a 10.0.50.x subnet w/ netmask of 255.255.255.0, the ranges could be something like this (this can vary, but I'm just giving you and example):
    Internal network DHCP range:
    10.0.50.1 - 10.0.50.50 / 255.255.255.0
    L2TP range:
    10.0.50.51 - 10.0.50.100
    PPTP range:
    10.0.50.101 - 10.0.50.150
    As long as the clients logging in are initially on a different subnet themselves (ie. a home network using default 10.0.1.x/255.255.255.0, etc.), this should work.

  • I redeemed a $50 gift card but I can't use the money on it to make purchases and instead, I get the billing info. pop up. How do I use the gift card credit??

    I redeemed a $50 gift card and it says $50.00 is my balance but when I try to buy an app it asks me for my billing information. I don't want to use my credit card, I want to use the $50 gift card I paid for. Please fix this

    Hi ...
    asks me for my billing information
    Apple "verifies" your billing information with every transaction whether it's purchasing media from the balance of redeemed gift card or a debit or credit card account.
    Click Account right side of the App Store window then click View Account.
    Make sure your name and billing address is correct then click Done.
    Now try purchasing an app.

  • HT2736 I have redeemed gift cards on my itunes account but it is still asking me for a credit card to purchase music

    Even though I have redeemed gift cards on my account when I go to purchase a song it keeps asking for credit card information.

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

    Far too much uneccesary information in your post, which only confuses things, a vast amount!
    Let's start with iTunes.
    Have you updated iTunes to 11.1.5, because the previous version did appear to have an issue about seeing iPods?
    With iTunes 11.1.5 installed, look in Edit/Preferences/Devices, (or use the ALT key, followed by the E key and then the F key) and make sure that the box named Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically does not have a tick in the box.
    Once you have doen those two things, check to see if the iPod is seen by iTunes.

    OS stands for Operating System. (In computer speak, IO means Input/Output.)
    iOS originally stood for iPhone Operating System, but it now refers to the iPod Touch and iPhone. The iPod Classic, which you have listed in your profile as your iPod, does not use iOS.
    I assume that you have been listening to the Podcast in your iTunes on the computer as you cannot transfer it to your iPod. It's what I'd do.
