No startpage -- how to redeem gift cards?

When connecting to the iTunes store I only get a blank startpage showing 'iTunes Store'. How can I redeem my gift cards? I'm using iTunes 7.3.2 as this is the latest version for Windows 2000. Is this a client side or Apple server side issue?
TIA,
Bernhard

Lots of people use iTunes without every going anywhere near the iTunes Store, so for them iTunes still will remain useful on Windows 2000, antique though that OS is.
If moving away from W2K Linux might be the OS to choose
Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7 - market share ca. 92%
Linux market share - ca. 1%
Where would you put your resources if you were Apple?
but there's no iTunes for it - correct?
Correct; there is no version of iTunes for Linux, and given the above facts, I would doubt that there will be one anytime in the near future.
Enough said. If you can't or won't upgrade to a supported version of Windows, you will not be able to upgrade iTunes and therefore will not be able to purchase from the iTunes Store. All other functions of iTunes (with the exception of support for current-model iPods and iPhones) remain, and there are many other places from which you can purchase and download music, such as Amazon. Sell your iTunes gift cards to someone else and use that money to purchase music from one of those other stores.

    Sir,
    I thought So too but then I went to Itunes Library and try and buy a single song from an album for $1.29.  Now my Itunes Gift card balance is $ 7.10 as I mentioned earlier. it still did not let me buy and kept trying billing my Visa card.
    Should I restart my PC and Itunes and retry. What do you suggest?

  • HT201209 how do i fine out my account balance when i redeem gift cards

    If I redeem gift cards, where can I see my account balance?  Also, if I purchase apps, games, etc., How does it know to use the gift card vs. my credit card on file?
    Thx!

    My account's balance shows at the top left of the store's page on my computer's iTunes, and by logging in to view my account via the Store > View Account menu option. On my iOS devices it shows at the bottom of, for example, the Featured tab in the App Store app under my account id (or you can view your account via Settings > iTunes & App Stores and it should show on the screen that you are taken to).
    When purchasing items from the store your account's balance should be automatically used first (you can't gift content from your balance) - from 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.

    AFAIK, there's no limit to how many gift cards can be redeemed in a 24 hour period. Same for In-App purchases.

    Hi ChuckN,
    I have installed the update at home on an older 27" iMac, a new retina macbook pro 15", an older macbook air  and a recent 21" iMac and on none of them does the redeem by camera option show up.
    I would say to our north American friends this is something that has been working for you for a while and has only been announced as available in AU with the latest update for our region this week. Sadly updates don't always work straight up.
    I am hopeful there is something I have not turned on but think I may need to wait for another update.
    good luck Chuck!

  • I get error 5002 when trying to redeem gift cards , what do I need to do to fix this.

    I get error 5002 when trying to redeem gift cards, what can I do to fix this?

    http://store.apple.com/us
    I have been trying to fix this myself and just found a way tonight. This started happening after I downloaded a new version. I tried several other approaches and was unsuccessful until I was directed to the support website.  I searched for 5002 error.  I chose specific conditions and alert message.  Then chose "Error 5002" which gave a little detail. 
    Basically I had to go to the above site and change my password and some other account information.  It didn't work when I tried in my actual ITUNES application.  I think because my account was so old and they upgraded some security items like stronger passwords etc., so the old stuff was no longer good enough.  I have now redeemed two gift cards.  I hope it helps.
