Multiple users/gift cards on one account

I have what I would imagine to be a common scenario but not sure how to handle. Before yesterday, we had one teenager using the home PC on a iTunes account linked to our CC for any purchases she needed to pay us back for. We now have 2 more teenagers who need to do the same with their new iPods and all 3 kids have gift cards. How do we ensure they can all use their gift cards separately, but still link any additional purchases back to our common account linked to our CC? I have seen several posts about how to use multiple iPods on the same PC but not how to manage iTunes accounts in relation to multiple gift cards and a common iTunes account for billing purposes which should be common. I want to make sure I set this up properly from the start so any aasistance is appreciated.

I would suggst creating a new iTunes accounts for each user using their own gift cards. You don't need a CC if you use a gift card.
Go to the iTunes store screen and click Redeem at the top right under *Quick Links*.
Enter the gift card number then select *Create new account*. At the CC details scene, select None.
but still link any additional purchases back to our common account linked to our CC?
You cannot. They can all be on the some computer.
Any gift cards put onto a single iTunes store account are put into that one account. Anything purchased by anyone will be deducted from the total.

  • How to manage multiple itunes gift cards on one account?

    I am assuming our family is not the only one that had gift cards received as Christmas gifts--for multiple members of the family, who all use one iTunes account. I cannot figure out how Billy's $20 avoid being used by Sally, who has her own $20 gift card?
    How is this done?

    There has got to be a better way!  If I set up new ids for each child, will they lose access to the content they have already purchased under my id?
    No, but each device is limited to protected content from up to 5 different accounts. Updating iOS apps purchased over more than one account is non-trivial as you have to actively log in to each account in turn. I would suggest sticking to one account while everyone is living in the same household.

    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

  • Itunes store multiple gift cards on one account

    Using one store account for multiple iPods and users, and having different iTunes gift cards to redeem per user, when entering the card info using Redeem function, does the store account list the distinct gift cards to select when making a purchase or automatically charge the cc on file? Bottom line, want to be able to make purchases and select the CC or gift card to charge against.
    Thanks

    does the store account list the distinct gift cards to select when making a purchase or automatically charge the cc on file?
    No.
    It charges gift cards first, then from CC.
    If you have different users, they should create their own iTunes account and add their gift cads to their own account.

  • Store refusing to combine multiple BB gift cards into one

    Hi,
    I have few egift cards which can be used in-store or online. I want to combine them into one to keep track easily.
    I went to BB store in Milpitas CA, and the store manager rudely told me that I can't combine gift cards.
    Please let me know if I could get the egift cards combined?
    Thanks!

    Good morning anjulg,
    With so many e-gift cards, I can understand that it may be difficult to manage all of them and keep balances in order. Typically, customers are able to redeem up to 15 gift cards in store, and 10 on BestBuy.com. While the limitations of how many gift cards you may purchase at one time is much lower, you should also note that the limit for a balance on a gift card is $2,000.
    I’m sorry to hear you had trouble combining your e-gift cards at our Milpitas, CA store, and for any rudeness you may have encountered. However, the store would have been correct in denying the combination of your e-gift cards, as transferring the value is outside the E-Gift Card Terms and Conditions. You may view these terms and conditions here. You may also want to check out the Gift Card Terms and Conditions on BestBuy.com.  
    I apologize for any disappointment this may cause you. If you should have any other inquiries or need further assistance, please let me know.
    Regards,

  • How do you change an iTunes gift card  from one account to another?

    I Want to know!

    Click here and ask the iTunes Store staff to put the balance back onto the card; they'll only do this if none of it has been spent.
    iTunes Store credit can't be spent on any sort of gift.

  • I redeemed my gift card on one computer, how do I transfer the balance to another?

    I redeemed my gift card on one computer, but when I try to by music on my other computer, it asks for my credit card information. So I am guessing I need to some how transfer the balance on the card to the other computer? I assumed it would be there on both since it is the same account on both?
    Anyone have ideas?

    A couple of questions for you...
    Did you get an email confirming the card had been successfully redeemed?  Is it possible you've changed iTunes store since you redeemed the gift card?  The gift card can only be used within the iTunes store it was purchased / redeemed.  If you're still in the same store, then try logging out of your iTunes account and logging back in.  That should reset the balance.
    The balance should be visible when you're browsing within the store (on the bar towards the top of the screen on the right hand side - next to the ID you've logged in to the store with.
    If you're still not happy with the results, the iTunes Store Billing support staff will be able to give you a definitive answer on your account balance.  I don't know where you are, so here are links to the US and UK support pages:

  • So im trying to buy logic pro and just recently put enough money in gift cards on my account but every time i click buy app and go to billing info and then click ok it just shoots me to the first screen and did not charge for app how can i buy it ?

    so im trying to buy logic pro and just recently put enough money in gift cards on my account but every time i click buy app and go to billing info and then click ok it just shoots me to the first screen and did not charge for app how can i buy it ?

    This may sound stupid, but I'm gonna throw it out there anyway. Is it possible, that if I have enough junk on my desktop it might disrupt the signal? It seems odd, but it kind of looks like my signal is strong and relatively steady now that I've cleaned my desktop. I do tend to get very cluttered. I use a lot of reference images and save text clippings to use later... it just piles up very quickly.
    So, I wonder if all that extra effort my system has to do keeping up with the junk might have something to do with the drop outs?
