Transferring itunes gift cards

I recently purchased a new computer and set up a new itunes account under the impression homesharing would allow me to transfer all of the music from my old computer that was purchased under the old apple id to the new computer with the new apple id. All my music transfered except for items purchased on the store, dissimilar to my impressions. I wanted to then switch back to the old apple id on the new computer to get that music, and just use the new id for icloud, but i have already put an $100 gift card on the new apple id. Is there any way i can transfer that money to the old apple id?

All content is tied to the account that bought/downloaded it and you can't currently transfer content from account to another. For the gift card you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they can move it over for you, but there is no guarantee that they will : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

  • How do I transfer iTune gift card from one iPod/AppleID to another?

    I applied an iTune gift card to my son's acct vs my daughters.  The gift cared was for $25, but when it was first loaded, it said it was only worth $24.01.  No purchase was made.  Is there a 99 cent charge for the gift card??  How do I get the remaining balance transferred to my daughter?  If I can't, can I purchase song on one AppleID and give it to another AppleID?  Thanks

  • Can I transfer a itunes gift card from one computer to another?

    My son has a itunes account set up on one computer, but now that computer has issues. We managed to set up another account for him on our main computer, but he wants to transfer the itunes gift card money from the messed up computer to our main one that his new account is set up on.  Can this be done? And how can we do it?
    Thanks

    The iTunes gift card money can't be transferred between iTunes Store accounts. Log into the old iTunes Store account and stop using the new one.

  • So if I want to buy an non-music app I need to buy an iTunes gift card?

    I bought gift cards for myself and my family so we could download apps onto our iPads.  The gift cards had the the little triangle emblem just like the App Store icon on our iPads.
    But nowhere on the iPad App Store is there a method to redeem the gift cards.  Phone Support just told me that I have purchased the wrong gift cards and that they are non-transferable.
    So if I want to buy an iWork app, I must purchase an iTunes gift card?  But I don't want to download music and I don't select the app from iTunes...I select it from the App Store
    And if I buy the gift card with the App Store triangle emblem then that card is only good at the online retail store and not for apps?
    It seems somewhat absurd to have 3 virtual storefronts (App, Online Retail, iTunes) that cannot take each others gift cards.  Why can't Apple be as easy as Amazon?  One gift card works everywhere.
    Is there any way to use our gift cards to download for-pay apps?  Or should I recover my money by disputing the purchase with my credit card company?

    Thanks for your reply.
    I took my iPad, my case #, my iPhone, and a printout of this thread to my local Apple store. What ultimately worked was to redeem the online store gift card through my iPhone Passbook and use the money to buy an iTunes gift card. Then I redeemed the iTunes gift card. 
    Not sure this will work with the gift cards I gave as presents and, if I lacked an iPhone (like my mother lacks) then I would have been S.O.L.  Apparently the emailed online store gift cards are incompatible (no GCA code). Something for Apple to fix. Not having Passbook on iPad is another thing.
    Thanks again for the help

  • Can I access the balance on an iTunes gift card without the actual card

    Is it possible to access the balance on an iTunes gift card without having the actual card still?  Thanks.

    Once an iTunes Gift card is redeemed the balance is transferred to your iTunes and Mac Store associated accounts, so once redeemed the card has no value. There is a number of ways to check your balance. On the iPad open the iTunes or App Store app and from one of the stores main pages scroll to the bottom to see your credits. You can also see this balance by logging into the iTunes Store in iTunes on a computer as well.

  • My iTunes gift card

    Okay so I had my apple ID all set up and stuff and I had an iTunes gift card I only spent two dollars on it, but then my email wasn't working so I had to change it and update all my information and now I can't use my card anymore since I already redeemed it once before. Is there anyway I ca get my balance back somehow or have it transferred to my new account?

  • What is balance on itunes gift card

    I have an iTunes gift card I haven't used for a long time and want to find out how much value is left.

    If it has been redeemed, then there is nothing left.
    You redeem it once, then the entire balance is transferred to your account.  The card retains no value at all.

  • ITunes gift cards... Will they go to the iTouch?

    If I enter an iTunes Gift Card code to my iTunes, then sync my iPod Touch, will the gift card have any effect on buying songs on my iTouch?

    yes, you can, when you type the itunes card in on itunes it credits your account which is transfered to your ipod, so you can send it anywhere you like, the only problem is that you cannot enter the itunes card in on your ipod touch
    hope this helps!

  • How can I put balance back on unused itunes gift card?

    How can I put balance back on unused itunes gift card?

    You can't, once you redeem a card it's balance is transferred to your account, you can't transfer it back to the card. If you've only just redeemed the card and haven't spent any of it then you can try contacting iTunes Support and see if they can put it back onto to the card or transfer it to a different 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

  • How do you add an iTunes Gift Card so that all purchases of any members of a Family Sharing Group can use the credit?

    How can all family members of a Family Sharing Group use a gift card that has been been applied to the iTunes master account? I added a gift card to our master iTunes account for my grandson, and even though he's a family sharing group member, none of the purchases I have approved from his requests have used the gift card credit. A search of the iTunes support site failed to turn up anything that even remotely addresses this topic. It would seem reasonable to assume that any purchase made by any family member should be able to use the gift card credit since all purchases go through the master account, but this does not appear to be the case.

    Regarding your statement about the gift card balance being used if redeemed to the organizers account - http://www.apple.com/feedback.
    Regarding redeeming the gift card to the child's account, it is the same as redeeming to yours.  You have to be signed in to the iTunes store using the child's apple ID, then redeem the gift card there.  If you already redeemed the card on your ID, you won't be able to redeem it again.

  • How many times can you resend an iTunes Gift Card?

    Tried sending an iTunes gift card to a @facebook account but the recipient hasn't received it.
    Is it possible to send to another of their @facebook accounts and if that also fails then to a conventional account?
    I guess my question is how many times can you resend on Gift Card and to how many different email accounts?

    To use an iTune Gift Card to buy books...
    Open iTunes on your computer and click on the iTunes Store.
    You'll need to be signed in...
    Click on the little House icon in the dark gray bar across the top. (or Shift+Command+H)
    On the right side of the page under Quick Links click Redeem and enter your code.
    Then it will show your credit balance in the dark gray bar across the top next to your account name to let you know how much you have to spend.
    Then as you buy books, it'll deduct from the credit balanace.
    There is a distinction between, iTunes Gift Card and Apple Gift Card.
    Apple Gift Card: can be used to purchase Apple hardware and accessories at any Apple Retail Store, the Apple Online Store...
    iTunes Gift Card: To give music, movies, TV shows, apps, books, or anything on the iTunes Store, the App Store, the iBooks Store or the Mac App Store, select an iTunes Gift Card

  • My ITunes gift card I brought, the Reemdem code had bin wide out so I can no longer see that code what do I do

    My ITunes gift card I brought, the Reemdem code had bin wide out so I can no longer see that code what do I do?

    "bin wide out"?
    If you mean you cannot read the code on the back of the card take it back to the store you purchased it from. If the numbers are not visable because you scratched them out I don't know if the store will replace or refund that. If you can read some of the numbers you could just keep trying a combination of letters and numbers to replace the missing ones. This will take a while depending on how many inputs are missing. You will have to use 0 through 9 and I am guessing A through Z.
