New to itunes - starting account with no credit card

I've just downloaded itunes as the place I want to get my music from is currently not available in Canada, but itunes wont let me even add anything to a wishlist without attaching a credit card to the account.
I never intended to use a credit card (nor do I have one, and have no plans to get one again), I was going to buy an itunes card to make my music purchases but this little roadblock in my account setting up proccess has made me weary.
I don't want to buy an itunes card (non refundable) until I know for sure I can use it on this account without attaching a credit card. If I add an itunes card in that step will it accept that or still beg for a credit card?
I'm not comfortable with ANY site requiring credit cards to start an account.
I don't want apps or games - I don't want anything like that - I only with to buy music to play on my Zune.
I'm sorry if this is a repeated question, I couldn't find an answer anywhere.
Hopefully someone can help me out.
Thanks.

    Why do you need to create a new account?
    Just change the payment method.

    When you get a apple receipt for itunes songs and you paid with a itunes gift card do they charge you or give you store credit what's store credit is it good or bad or does it charge you if you have a free account with no credit cards at all is it bad?

    iTunes credits are, for example, if you download a song from the store and it's found to be corrupt - if the track can't be fixed then iTunes support will tend to give you a song credit for a free download.
    When you purchase music from the store then any credits that you have will be used first, then any balance that you have (e.g. from iTunes gift cards or allowances), and any remaining amount will be taken from your credit card.

    Hello Lozza63
    Check out the article below to see what could be blocking you from selecting None as a form of payment.
    Why can’t I select None when I edit my payment information?

  • How do I sign up for an itune's account without a credit card if I already have an apple ID?

    How do I sign up for an itune's account without a credit card if I already have an apple ID?
    There is no none option for payment method, even if I buy a free app.
    I have no credit card.

    What I can see here is that you have 2 options -
    You can use your Apple ID to create your account, but you must enter a credit card.
    ***Once you have successfully created the account with a credit card, you can simply remove the card from your account.
    Or you can create an iTunes Store account with a free application. However, you cannot use this Apple ID. You must start the process from the beginning with a different email address. This article shows you how:

  • HT4484 I let my grandson open an apple account with my credit card.  He has been charging a little to much and I would like my credit card removed from this account.  I do not know the apple id or password.  How do i proceed?

    I let my grandsn open and itunes account with my credit card.  I want to remove my cc# from his account.  I do not know his apple id or password.  How do I proceed?

    I would say let him fess up and give him a chance to mend his ways, but there is at least one app that goes for $900 (according to another poster's request for a refund).  You may end up $1000+ deeper gone.
    Change the account number which will close the current links and freeze/prevent charges under the old number.  As I understand it Apple gets grumpy when charges get rejected, and you need to jump through hoops to get a payment method reattached.
    Yes this is a grumpy answer.

  • HT5622 so i bought an itunes gift card of 50.00 and wanted to buy some more songs ....but the information i have in my account with my credit card is no longer valid but it shows my balance of 50.00 in my itunes account....how come it just won't deduct th

    i bought an itunes gift card and it wants me to update my credit card info but it shows me my balance in my itunes store?

    Sorry, but there's no way to force the iTunes Store to use your credit card. If there's a credit balance available, purchases will be deducted from that first.

  • HT2534 How do you create an apple ID account with no credit card. HELP!!!

    There is no 'none' button for selecting a method payment when creating an apple ID account. HELP!!!

    Did you follow, exactly, the instructions on the HT2534 page that you posted from when creating the account ? I've just tried those instructions and got the 'none' option on a new account
    You could see if this post by mountaingoatgirl lets you review that account without needing to enter credit card details : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24303054
    If not, and if you don't want to enter credit card details (you should be able to remove them after entering them) then you will need to create a new account, using the instructions on the HT2534 page when creating it. If you want to use the same email address then you will need to replace it on that account first e.g. via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes or via http://appleid.apple.com

    Hi Tony ...
    You have to have a credit or debit card account setup in order to enable an iCloud account.
    If you just want an iTunes account but not iCloud click None in the Edit Payment Information window. (Not all countries have the option to select None).
    i want that the computer remembers the user names but not the pass words
    If you are using the Safari browser, go to the Safari menu bar at the top of your screen, click Safari then from the drop down menu click Preferences.
    Then select the Autofill tab. Select:  User names and passwords
    finally is there toturioral for imacs

  • How cat i create iTunes store account without USA credit card?

    The help page http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2534  seems to be outdated. There no "None" option anymore.
    I just trying to buy several apps not available at my region using gift card.

    sometimes I live in USE, sometime not. I have an USA address, but I don't have a USA credit card. Apple allows to have several apple IDs (see the link in my question). I don't want to make a card for only one reason - to by apps in USA appstore. I have a gift card and I want to use it, but seems that I can't because "None" type payment is not available anymore.
