Need Help Setting up iTunes store...new account

I am trying to sign into my account in the latest version of iTunes which is new on my Hard drive (had to erase the HD because of some issues with it) Anyway, iTunes wants me to add credit card information for purchases. I have been buying pre paid cards and would rather continue doing this. So how can I get around putting my CC info in? It won't let me get pass that step in the setting up the account process.When I click sign in and put my info in it says that my information has never accessed the music store and wants me to register. The first screen that comes up is the Credit Card screen.
Thanks!

I am trying to help my kids set up their own iTunes accounts so we don't have the constant fight over who has how many songs left. I want the accounts to only be used when they have credit from gift cards. Is there a way to set up the account with linking my PayPal or credit card? They have their own email accounts so that will not be a problem. Thanks
You can create gift card accounts that do not involve entering any other payment information. Just get them a gift card and redeem them before opening up an account for them.

  • HOW TO?: Need help setting up 3 different iCloud accounts for my kids (so each has own iMessanger)using same Apple ID (mine) ....they don't have their own separate email addresses to work from...how do I do this?

    Need help setting up 3 different iCloud accounts for my kids (so each has own iMessanger)using same Apple ID (mine) ....they don't have their own separate email addresses to work from...how do I do this?

    Any devices connected to the same icloud account can sync all the data on that account.  For this reason an icloud account is really for a single user.
    On a mac, if each user has their own account, then the itunes for that mac account should be set up to connect to that user's icloud account (System preferences>icloud).

  • HT4623 i need help setting up itunes on my iphone

    hi i just bought my iphone and i need to set up itunes. on my phone it says connect to itunes and i already connected the usb cable but it wont move forward. what should i do

    once the phone is connected, turn on itunes if the program did not automatically turn on.
    from there you will see your device; in this case your iphone.
    You will see tabs along the top for music, movies and so on... go thru each tab and make sure you have the settings or your choice.
    on the main tab near the bottom right you will see the sync button; click it and wait.

  • I need help accessing the itunes store

    so for some reason my itunes doesnt let me get to the itunes store. it doesnt let me sign in to my itunes account and when i go into the itunes store through the internet is says. itunes can not proccess the request ( error 11223) please help me

    Go up to the top of your screen on iTunes and click on 'Store'.  Then go down to 'Authorize This Computer'.  That should cover part of it unless you've already authorized a bunch of other computers to use your account.  If that's the case, you'll have to go to one of those computers and click the button just below it to 'deauthorize your account' from that computer.  If you're not able to access the store, check your internet connection to make sure you are connected.  Hope this helps.. good luck!

    Hello erbim,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    The Apple ID you sign in with will allow you access to the purchases made on that ID.

  • Need help setting up a new Usenet/Newsgroup accoun...

    I have recently migrated from Pipex to to BT Total broadband 1.  I use Newzbin/Unison for my Usenet downloads and currently all is working fine using the Pipex server set up.  However as I want to eventually want to move all connections to BT servers I have been trying to set up a BT news account but without success.  I have read many forum threads here dealing with this problem but still cannot get any connection.  I have tried entering my default BT and Unison username and password but still no joy!  All I get is this ...
    I know the BT server name is news.btinternet.com using port 119 which I have entered but cannot understand what else to do!  I guess the problem is the user/password combination I am entering.  I am on a Mac OSX and have Mozilla Thunderbird for my email and have tried to set this up also but with no success.  Can anyone help please?

    Hi miqs.
    The news server is news.btinternet.com (or as also mentioned news.btopenworld.com) and no userid/password details should be used.
    You mention all is well using the Pipex server set up, do you mean that you are actually still connected to Pipex ? (easily checked by going here http://www.ip-adress.com/ ).
    You need to be connected to a BTinternet connection in order to use the news server.

  • HT2534 Hi, if I create a new iTunes Store etc account to access a European iTunes store, will this wipe all the apps I've downloaded via my UK AppleID (which I'm using across 3 different devices)?

    NB. the app I'm initially interested in downloading for is the paid global/worldwide BBC iPlayer app that's only accessible outside the UK, if that helps.

    Yes.
    And, your credit or debit card credentials must be associated with the same country where you reside.
    "Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location."

  • Need help re-synching iPods with new computer and getting iTunes to...

    Need help re-synching iPods with new computer and getting iTunes to recognize our iPods (it doesn't even recognize them when they're plugged in).
    Hubby wiped my harddrive for me, so now I need to get everything back in proper places. I'm using windows XP and installed iTunes once again (I believe it's version 8). I also installed all of my iTunes songs. Now I need to know where to go from here. We have 3 iPods and I need to get them all synched once again. I know how to create different libraries for each of us, but I can't figure out how to get our songs back into our iTunes libraries. When I open iTunes and plug in an iPod, iTunes doesn't even show that an iPod is plugged in.
    What do I do now to get each of our iPods synched with our own libraries?
    TIA
    Brandy

    Thanks Zevoneer. The "Restart ipod service" worked and itunes is now recognizing my ipod! Hooray!
    Okay, now how do I synch all of our ipods with our individual libraries (I don't want all of my kids' songs and vice versa)? We each have hundreds of songs on our ipods that we don't want to lose.
    Thanks again!

  • Need help setting up and configuring rsync

    Hello
    I need help setting up, or rather configuring rsync to sync data between my brand new iMac and my Macbook Air.
    Here is what I would like to:
    - I want all of the files on both machines to be an exact mirror or copy of each other. Basically I have an iMac for at home, and then a Macbook Air for the road.
    - The main folder on both Macs is called 'Sara' and I want the contents (mainly the 'movies' folder, 'music' folder, 'documents' folder and 'pictures' folder) to immediately sync up with each other when both of them are on my home network.
    - this means if I'm working on a file at home on my Macbook, it will immediately write to the same directory on my iMac and vice versa (if I'm working on file(s) on my iMac, it will immediately save the contents to my Macbook). This way, if I'm working on last minute project my iMac, and then have to head out the door to the airport, the file is immediately saved to my Macbook (no usb for USB transfer).
    - hopefully this makes sense??
    Any help is greatly appreciated!
    Thanks

    It's a lofty but unrealistic goal.  Rsync does not run automatically.  There is no realistic method of instantaneously synching two computers over the internet or even on a LAN.
    I would suggest you might try using Synk Pro which, in theory, can keep two devices in sync when they are both on the same network (and both have shared and mounted drives.)
    If you must do this with rsync then I suggest a Google search for rsync tutorials.

  • I need help setting up an apple id for my sons phone. It seems his email address has been taken and/or we cant get the password.

    I need help setting up an apple id for my son's phone. It seems his email address has been taken and/or we cant get the password.

    Two different things
    If you forgot the password
    If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
    If the email ID you want to use is in use by someone else - then you may need a new one
    The iCloud ID's are usually unique and may be of help if you set one up
