Is the iTunes gift card code restricted to country

I bought a itunes gift card in the US. Can I use it with a Canadian itunes ID?
IF not, how can I spend 37 cents in the itunes or app store and then change regions?

iTunes gift cards can only be used in the country's store in which they are issued - so US cards can only be used with US iTunes account. If you want to use the US store then have you got a valid address in the US, if using a credit card then that will need to registered to that same address, and be in the US at the time of making the purchases ?
I think that you will need to contact iTunes supportin order to remove the 37 cents : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/

  • HT2534 what is the itunes gift card code

    what is the itunes gift card code and how can I get it?

    iTunes gift cards are an alternative method of paying for content from the iTunes content. They are not available in all countries and they are country-specific - they can only be redeemed and used in their country of issue. If they are available in your country then you might be able to get them from Apple, or from electrical stores, supermarkets, online retailers etc. The field on the screen when creating an account is optional, and if gift cards aren't available in your country then you won't be able to fill it in anyway.

  • How do I rent a movie using money in my iTunes account.  I had to enter at the iTunes gift card code to open the account, but now I can't figure out how to use this money to rent a movie; I opened the account several months ago but never used the money.

    How do I rent a move using moneyin my iTunes account.  I had to enter the iTunes gift ard code to open the account several months ago, but never purchased anything with it.  When I entered this code to rent a movie, the response was that it was redeemed.  What am I doing wrong?

    If you've already redeemed the card onto your account then its amount should be on your account - a card can only be redeemed once.
    To rent a film, find the film in the store and (if the film studio has made it available as a rental in your country) click on its Rent button. If you are beig prompted to review your account and enter credit card details then see if this post from mountaingoatgirl lets you do so without entering card details : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24303054 . If that doesn't work then you should be able to remove your card's details after entering them.
    As long as you account's balance covers the rental cost then only that should be charged. How purchases are billed : 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.

    From where i can get itunes gift card code?

    I don't believe Apple has an online store in Israel. You'll have to look elsewhere, where, I can't say. But, the gift card must be purchased in Israel. Could be they are simply not sold there.

  • HT2736 What do I do when, I make a new Apple ID and its not rewed by iTunes and it ask for the iTunes gift card code and you dont have one. what do Ido?

I go to download an app, but when it says use exsiting apple ID or Creat a new Apple ID, I say exsisting. it says that my Apple ID was not review by iTunes store I put all the info in so it can read it then it says "iTunes Gift Cards and iTunes Gifts code, I don't have one... what do I do?????

    The gift card field is optional, you don't have to fill it in - and as cards are not available in all countries (and they are country-specific, they can only be used in their country of issue) you might not be able to fill it in anyway.
    If it's a new account, and you didn't use the instructions on this page when creating it :http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534, then you will need to enter payment details on the account before you will be able to download any item from the store with it.

    If  the store that you bought it from is nearby then you could try going back to it and ask them to activate it properly. If it isn't, or if they can't/won't help, then try contacting iTunes Support (you will probably need to give them images of the front and back of the card, and possibly its receipt) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then iTunes Cards And Codes

  • HT201209 How to get an itunes gift card code, no need to wait for shipping

    Good day to all,
    I want to get an itunes gift card just to download whatsapp on my iphone 3gs. I have my credit card but the billing address is in Haiti, unfortunately Haiti is not in your list of  countries. How can I get itunes gift card code immediately in order to download that application? No need to wait for shipping, just want to have the code to add it to my apple account.
    If you have a better solution, it's welcome.
    Thank you in advance for your reply

    Sorry, but you can't, if you live in Haiti. As you say yourself, there is no iTunes Store for Haiti and you are not allowed to use the iTunes Store of any other country.
    If you live in a country where there is an iTunes Store, check to see if Apple sells physical gift cards in your country and if so purchase and redeem one of those. There is no way to purchase an electronic gift certificate from Apple without a credit card from the country whose iTunes Store you wish to use.
    Regards.

  • Can you use the itunes gift card to pay for apps, too?

  • TS1292 iTunes Gift Card "Code is Not Valid" !

    I tried to use the iTunes Gift card and I get a response:
    "The code entered is not valid"
    Needless to say I have already spent enough time first figuring out how to "Redeem" a card - primarily due to the sparse directions Apple provides - and lastly - I have now tried various codes from the gift card - with not much success.

    Note:  iTunes Gift Cards are only Valid in Country of Issue.

  • Can I use the itune gift card to redeem credits in US appstore to buy in-app staff which is from appstore in other country?

    I download a app from appstore in Hong Kong and it did not allow me to buy the in app staff because my payment information is from US and i did not have the credit card from Hong Kong. In case like that everytime I have been reject by the appstore to pay for the in app staff. I want to know if I can buy one of the itune gift card and redeem that in appstore and then pay for the in app staff I want to buy?

    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.
