Do I really need to put my debit or credit card information to get a FREE app ? Why ?

You can try removing the card in your account information, but if that credit card expired before you removed it, you might be stuck now,
Settings>Store (or iTunes & App Stores in iOS 6)>Apple ID. Tap your ID. Then tap View Apple ID. Enter your password. Tap the arrow next to Payment Information and select None if it is available in your settings. See if that will work for you.
If iTunes doesn't accept that or if you didn't have None in the options, you are stuck until you enter e new card.

Why do I need to give my credit card details to get a free app?

I just want a free app from Twitter, but cannot seem to download it without giving my card details. Is this correct?

Hello pamelafromCornwall,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
As the article below states you do need to have payment information on file if you have already created an Apple ID and are using the iTunes Store or App Store for the first time. If you want to remove your payment information afterwards, you can follow the steps in the article below to do so.

I need help putting my debit card in my iTunes accout

hi my Name Roberto. im having trouble putting my debit card in my iTunes account because it keeps tellin me my security code is rong.

Connect the iPod to a USB port on the computer with the included cable. The iTunes software will probably open automatically but, if it does not, open it manually. Look at the pane on the left for "Devices" (see below). Select (highlight) your unit and then select the music tab and decide what music you want on the iPod (see below again).
If your iPod does not show up in iTunes, go here for troubleshooting procedure

Why do I have to put my credit card on file to download free apps?

I enjoyed many News/Talk Radio options, including NPR stations around the country, on my Apple TV until recently. Recently during their fund drive Michigan Radio announced that their bandwidth was changing and AppleTv users would have to go to the itunes store to get the free app enabling NPR. Can't find the free app or anything about apps for AppleTV. Please help. Also, is there an easy way to get audiobooks to play on iphone4s?

There are no apps specifically for Apple TV. You just go to the app store and download the app to your IOS device and use airplay to stream to Apple TV.

Why do I need a credit card to get a free app

I downloaded a free app without needing credit card. Went to download another and it said I needed to put in credit card info. Why?

If the app also has in-app purchases included, then you need a credit card on file in case you purchase something from within the app.

As a security precaution, Apple verifies your billing credentials with every transaction whether paid or free apps or using the balance of a redeemed code.

There is no version 10.7.8 so we need to know what you are running.
10.8.5 costs money.
10.9.2 is free. Find out more at the App Store application.

You have an outstanding balance in your account. You have to add a payment method to satisfy that balance before you can do anything with the account including purchasing free updates and free apps.
