U.S.-purchased iTunes gift card not working on Canadian-purchased iPad - why????

In Florida with a Canadian-bought iPad. When trying to load a U.S.-purchased ITunes gift card, receiving "code not valid" message. Is this because US cards are not compatible with Canadian-purchased Apple products? Thanks

Found my answer - thanks.

  • Itunes gift cards not working with 2 separate acounts

    Hello, We need some help with Itunes gift cards. My son received two gift cards and partially used one. Then my wife received a new ipod and we set up her account on the same computer as my son's and used the same email address. Now neither gift card will work. What can we do to remedy this? Thank you in advance for any help you can offer.

    Yeah, that won't work, I guess the gift-giver didn't read the fine print

    Can I redeem a US gift certificate if I live outside the US?
    Gift certificates purchased on the iTunes Music Store are valid for use only in the country in which they were purchased. Gift certificates purchased in the United States may only be redeemed by residents of the United States.

  • HT1918 Why do you need my credit card information when I purchase songs from an already purchased Itunes gift card?

    Why do you need my credit card information when I purchase songs from an already purchased Itunes gift card?  If I cannot purchase goods with the prepuchased gift cards, then the card is useless and I want my money back.

    We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
    Just because you are being asked to enter your credit card details doesn't mean that it will be charged for your purchases.
    Is it a newly created account ? If it is then unless you use the instructions on this page when creating an account then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used in the store : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534

  • Can I Purchase iTunes Gift card for US in India

    Hello
    I want to Giveaway iTunes Gift Card to my blog readers in US. I am resident of India.
    Can I buy iTunes Gift Card(s) online with valid US postal addresse(s) of the winner (s) through my account?
    OR
    What is the best way to gift iTunes cards to US resident while I am sitting in India?
    Waiting to hear from you
    Thanks

    Sorry, but you cannot purchase iTunes gift cards from outside of the country in which they are sold by any means I know of, since such purchases generally require a US credit card. You can try contacting Apple's corporate marketing group, though, and ask if there's anything they can work out for you:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/corporatesales/
    By the way, this forum is for questions about iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll be most likely to get help with questions like this if you ask in the general iTunes forums.

  • Halp. my itunes gift card isnt working

    my itunes gift card isnt working. like i put in the code a couple times  and it didnt not work..

    By 'didn't work' you mean ... ? Do you get any error messages ?
    Was the iTunes card issued in the same country as your account is based (they are only valid in their country of issue) ? If it was then, depending upon what happens when you try to redeem it, see if this page helps. If it's a problem that only iTunes Support can help with then you can contact them via this page (you will probably need to give them images of the front and back of the card, and possibly its receipt) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then iTunes Cards And Codes

    If the error message you are receiving is that your iTunes Gift Card in inactive, you should contact iTunes Store Customer Support via the Contact Support link on the lower-left side of the iTunes support page and include attached digital photos or scanned images of the sales receipt and both sides of the gift card.

  • HT201209 Can I purchase iTunes gift cards for people in other countries to use?

    Can I purchase iTunes gift cards for people in other countries to use? I have a brother that lives in Vietnam and I want to buy him a gift card that he can use there.  I've read the iTunes gift cards are country specific.

    What you have read is correct; gift cards are country specific. So only if iTunes cards are issued in Vietnam, and if they are if you can find a retailer there that sells such cards and would accept an out-of-country credit card, would you be able to purchase a gift card for your brother. The same would apply to any other country.
