I redeemed a gift card but it still asking me for credit card info to purchase

Why is the problem? I just want to use my gift card.

That information is false.  The OP was having a different issue.

  • I had an old account for my apple I.D and the email that i had expired, so I switched my apple I.D as my recent gmail, but it still asks me for my old apple I.D and password, what do I do

    I had an old account for my apple I.D and the email that i had expired, so I switched my apple I.D as my recent gmail, but it still asks me for my old apple I.D and password, what do I do?

    Go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • I purchased a creative cloud membership but it still asks me for a serial number when I try to open software

    I had Photoshop CC, Dreamweaver CC, and Illustrator CC installed as a trial. The trial has now run out and I purchased an account for a full subscription to all adobe software, but in the creative cloud app it keeps prompting me as "your trial has expired" and when I click "license this software" it prompts me with a serial number screen. All uninstalled apps have a "try" or "buy" button next to them when I assume it should say "install" since I've paid for them.
    Some things I've read on forums and have tried with no success:
    uninstalling and reinstalling all apps including creative cloud desktop manager
    used the adobe cleaner utility to clean all leftover adobe files, then tried reinstalling software
    edited the hosts file to remove any additional lines.
    changed my language settings to International english.
    tried signing in and out
    I was told this computer had pirated adobe software installed on it at one time.  Not sure if this is responsible for why this has been so problematic. Please help, Ive spent hours trying to figure this out. ps i'm on a mac.

    Jodie84,
    I have just checked your account and found that you indeed have bought a Creative Cloud for Teams subscription but you have assigned the single seat to another user hence you ( If you are using your own Adobe ID ) are getting the trial error message.
    Two options : Either reassign the seat to your self or add an additional seat and invite your self in the same Team.

  • I just recently got an iPhone and I'm trying to download the apps from the App Store that are free but it keeps asking me for my payment info. Is there anyway to get passed this?

    Please help!

    If you only want the free apps, take a look here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    Read the steps carefully as the order in which you follow them is  critical. Note that you can do this only when creating a new Apple ID. You cannot use an existing ID. 
    You will of course not be able to get anything other than the free apps without entering in some sort of payment method (credit card, prepaid iTunes card, gift certificate, etc.)
    Regards.

  • HT2736 I redeemed a gift card in an old account by accident. It doesn't appear I can transfer credit to my current account. Tried to gift songs from old one to current but credit card charged, then deleted cc info but still doesn't work. Suggestions?

    I redeemed a gift card in an old apple account by accident. It doesn't appear I can transfer the credit to my current apple account. Suggestions online were to gift songs from old account to new one but when I did my credit card was charged. I have deleted my credit card info and now it won't let me gift songs at all. Credit is showing in old account, any suggestions how to utilize?

    You cannot gift with a gift balance.  You must use cc to gift

  • I redeemed a gift card, the amount shows up in the top right corner but when I try to purchase music it goes to the account that I have loaded. How do I use the gift card?

    I redeemed a gift card, the amount shows up in the top right corner of my account but when I try to purchase music it goes to the account that I have loaded previously. How do I use the gift card?

    If the amount of the purchase is close to $21.07, then you need to take into account taxes may be added.
    If you go beyond the credit from a gift card the balance will be billed to your credit card account.

    Hello SBentley22,
    I can only imagine how upset I would be to discover that over $1000 in gift card funds seemed to be missing. I certain that I would not do well with the additional complications that you've described either. I apologize for you and your boyfriend having to cope with this situation. Certainly this was never our goal.
    I was unable to locate the purchases or returns that you mention using the information you provided when you signed up for Best Buy Unboxed. I would very much like to look into this situation for you and do what I can to help, but I will need more information to begin. If you will please send me a private message that includes your full name, telephone number, and the Customer Service PIN from the receipt where the gift card was issued, I'll get started with my research.
    Please know that I'm extremely grateful that you took the time to bring your situation to our attention. I look forward to hearing from you.
    Sincerely,
    John|Social Media Specialist | Best Buy® Corporate

  • HT202359 I have redeemed a gift card but how can I use the credits that I gained?

    I have redeemed a gift card and gained 5 song credits. When I try and buy songs, iTunes takes me through to the ''redeem'' page but when I try and enter the gift code, it just opens up a window that says this code has already been redeemed. How can I actually use the credits to buy songs? There doesn't seem to be an option to use ''credits''... Thanks.

    What exactly do you see when trying to buy a song, what messages appear ? You can't change how items are billed, it's automatic, as long as you are buying for yourself  then your account's balance should be used for the purchase, it's only if gifting (which can only be done via a credit card) or if your balance doesn't cover the entire purchase price that credit card details should be asked for - or if it's a new account and you didn't follow particular steps when creating the account. (A gift card can only be redeemed once, you can't re-enter its code.)
