ITunes music card from Ireland

My son was recently sent a 25 Euro music card by his Aunt and I have tried to purchase music through the iTunes store but it is not compatible with the UK store?
The message that displays is "Your iTunes store (UK) does not match that of the gift cetificate (Ireland)"
Can anyone help with this issue.
Many thanks.

Sorry, but gift cards, certificates, etc. can only be used in the country in which they're issued. So there's no way your son can use a gift card purchased in Ireland in the UK iTunes Store. My suggestion would be for his aunt to send him a generic gift card that's valid in multiple countries which he could then use to purchase an iTunes card in the UK.

  • ITunes Music Card but no Credit Card

    Hello,
    Today I purchased a iTunes Music card from Coles, as I was under the impression that this was a pre-paid way to buy music. However when i went to sign up for an iTunes Apple ID, I need to enter my credit card details, and I don't have one! Is there anyway that I can use my prepaid card without a credit card?
    I'm hoping I didn't just waste $50 on a useless PIN Number!
    Regards,
    Daniel

    Hi Katrina,
    Have almost the same problem (i.e no credit card)as Daniel except my $20 music card from Myers has a 12-digit code instead of the 16-digit required. I got to a window (somehow) where it asked me for these 12 digits and ...I just got "The code you entered is not recognized as a valid code". Totally unable to get help from Apple customer service as I keep being bumped off from sending email to them. Someone pleaaaase help,

  • TS1292 hi, I've got itunes music card for my birthday and when I scratch the back to redeem the code everything gone, so no code, what can I do?

    hi, I've got itunes music card for my birthday and when I scratched the back to redeem the code everything gone, so no code, what can I do? I've been to tesco to customer service and they told to contact itunes support

    These are user-to-user forums. If the page that you posted from doesn't help then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page (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

  • ITunes music card issues

    I just purchsed an iTunes music card.
    After I have put in my details(ID,password) a box comes up saying - This Apple ID has not yet been used with the iTunes music store. Please review account information.
    When I click review it try's to get me to sign up for a new account(which I can't do because I do not have a credit card so I can't get past the credit card info page).
    If anyone has had experience with either of these problems could they please help me out??

    It's a little bit tricky:
    Don't try to log into your id at first.
    Logged off from any account, just redeem your voucher - then enter your ID/PW.
    Now you will have to review your details again, but there is a small checkbox to continue without entering CC details.

  • Itunes music card redeem balance

    I bought an itunes music card, and purchased 1 album, but i still had $30 credit. When i try to use the remaining balance, it says that the card has already been redeemed. How do i access the remaining credit?

    The card itself has to be redeemed only once.
    The correct (remaining) iTMS balance should show up right to your iTMS User ID in iTunes when selecting iTMS.
    Under certain conditions there may be displayed an erratic balance - in this case #1 log out from your iTMS account #2 Quit iTunes #3 Relaunch iTunes #4 Log into your iTMS account.

  • Itunes Music Card access privileges

    My daughter recieved a $25.00 card for xmas, she plugged in the code, started to download 4 songs....took the money off the card but we get the error......
    "You do not have enough access privileges for this operation. Please check the connection to the network is active ands try again. "
    she gets this on her sign on and I also get it. we have never had a problem downloading songs when it was coming off my mastercard. it is only on the Itunes music card.
    also, how do you switch back and forth from charging it to the music card and charging it to my mastercard, when i download a song it wants to use the music card and I do not want to use up her money. If it ever works.

    Thanks for your help but that did not work either. I guess I will pay attention the next time and make sure i go to the MAC one, not windows. which i just reposted on the mac site and see that you are also there answering questions, before i posted though, i did not see any posts that are having the same issues as I'am ?

  • How to move itunes music library from an old to new NAS?

    I'm moving to a larger LaCie NAS and need to move my existing iTunes music files from the old LaCie to the new LaCie. My iTunes library files are on my mini, but the music files are on the NAS.
    I have 2 questions:
    1. Since I'm making this move, can I move all my iTunes files to the NAS (the whole iTunes folder in my user folder - library file, apps, artwork, etc.)? Are there advantages / disadvantages to this (e.g. for sharing with other MACs in the house)? (Currently only my music files are on the NAS - everything else is on the mini.)
    2. What is the best way to make this move? I assume I could copy the files manually, I could use iTunes organize / consolidate functions to do this, or maybe there are other options. I'm not exactly sure how to do any of the options...
    Thank you!

    Sorry, I wasn't responding to you, just the original poster. I didn't look at the date on that posting and didn't realize that you'd added a post that wasn't quite the same problem. In future, you'll find you get better answers if you start your own thread. You're issue really is a bit more complicated.
    If iTunes currently recognizes all the music on both internal and the external drives, it should work. You have to make sure that both drives (old and new) are mounted. Make sure you have both "Keep iTunes music organized" (you probably already do) and "Copy files to iTunes..." (you probably don't) checked.
    If not all of the music is currently in your iTunes library, perform the procedure with the music that is a part of the library and add the other stuff afterwards.
    Best of luck.

    You can't do it yourself. If you've just redeemed it and not spent any of it then you could try contacting iTunes Support and see if they can move it the other account : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • Bought a $25 itunes gift card from 7-11 and it was invalid, cashier was too busy on the phone with a personal friend and didn't give me a receipt, please help!

    I bought a $25 iTunes gift card from the 7-11 in Windsor Locks, CT earlier this afternoon around 6:45 P.M, and when I tried to activate it, the code was invalid, and when I called the 7-11 to let them know what happened, the foreign man that answered the phone started yelling at me when I told him the cashier was the too busy on the phone with a friend to give me a receipt for my purchases. Considering that my card didn't work and the guy yelled at me when I was trying to make him aware of the situation, it made me wonder how many other people has that convenience store scammed into buying invalid gift cards? If they are scamming people, is there a way for me to report the store to Apple for using the company to gain fraudulent dollars? Is there a way I can get my money back?

  • Can I copy music iTunes Music Folder from my external Hard drive to new PC?

    not sure if this is possible but I copied my folders (documents/music/itunes/itunes music folder) from my local hard drive from laptop to my external (for backing up purposes) and now i have a new computer. can i just simply copy/paste this folder to my new computer and open itunes and it will be there. i know it's probably too easy but was hoping someone could help me out???? thanks.

    You can by dragging them from itunes to your external drive this will copy them to it. Then do the opposite for from you drive to the new computer. Just make sure if you don't intend to keep the drive connected to your new computer. That you put copies of the songs in a folder on it before putting them on itunes or you have problems playing your songs.

  • How should I copy my iTunes Music folder from my iMac to my Macbook Pro

    I have copied the iTunes music folder from my iMac to my Macbook Pro using firewire and target disk mode. After all the files (for files read each individual song) have been copied I find that not all songs can be played. For those which will not play I get he error message "The song "bla bla" could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?" When I answer "locate" on this popup I'm taken to a view of finder. If I double click on the song there, the song will play on iTunes. Seems to be something to do with the structure of the folders but in get info I cannot see a difference between songs encountering this problem and those which don't.

    Instead of copying only the _iTunes music folder_, copy the entire *iTunes folder.*
    That's all you need to do.
