Unable to use iTunes credit to purchase apps

Am new to the iTouch and apps.
Have redeemed my Itunes card but cannot purchase apps with the credit.
What gives?

The credit can only be used to purchase music and videos in Canada. Software purchases require a credit card.

  • Can i use itunes vouchers to purchase apps on vpp

    We are a Primary (Elementary) School in England who have recently bought 30 iPads...
    Can we use iTunes vouchers to purchase apps and books alongside VPP?
    ...or...
    Do you have to use/buy VPP Credit to buy apps and books to distribute to all the iPads?
    Any help/advice will be much appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    From the VVP guide.....I highlighted copy in bold type.
    Step 4. Enter payment and billing information. Complete your transaction with a Volume Voucher, credit card, PayPal in the United States, or ClickandBuy in the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, and Spain. You’ll receive a confirmation email from Apple telling you that your order has been processed.
    Volume Vouchers. Volume Vouchers are physical cards in denominations of $100, $500, $1000, $5000, and $10,000 that can be used to purchase apps and books in the VPP store. Volume Vouchers can be provided to Program Facilitators within your instituion who then redeem the vouchers within their individual VPP accounts. Volume Vouchers can be purchased with a range of payment methods, including purchase orders, and are only availble directly through Apple in the United States. The cards are shipped via Federal Express or UPS within three to five business days after your order is processed.
    Purchase history. Your purchase history is stored on the program website under your account information, so you can track the status of each transaction, refer to past purchases, view content you’ve purchased, or download the current spreadsheet of redeemable codes. The purchase history also contains other helpful order information, such as order date, order number, purchase price, and number of apps and books procured.
    Here is where I found the info.

  • Can I use Itunes credit to purchase an ipad ?

    I can't find a definitive answer on the website so I'm bringing the question here.  I have a bunch of credit in the itunes store. Can I use that credit to purchase an ipad ?
    Thanks for your help.

    No, the credit on your account can only be used to buy from the iTunes store (music, films, tv shows etc), the App Store, ibookstore and the Mac App Store - it can't be used to buy from the Apple online or bricks-and-mortar stores.

  • Using iTunes credit to purchase voucher

    Hello iTuners,
    maybe this is too obvious for me to see or just impossible, maybe you can help me figure out.
    I have an Australian iTunes account running since I lived there for two years. I'm switching to a German account now in order to use it at home (different Apps offered) but still have roughly $50 in my account.
    So I tried to use the credit so send a voucher to a friend in Australia. But every time I want to purchase it, iTunes wants to charge my credit card rather than using my account credit, which is pretty pointless in this case.
    Do you know of any way around this???
    Any clues will be much appreciated!
    Cheers,
    Olly

    Sorry, but you cannot use a credit balance to purchase a gift voucher or other gift. You'll need to use a credit card.
    Regards.

  • Unable to use iTunes balance to purchase items on games

    My father sent me an iTunes gift card to purchase GEMS for my Clash of Clans.
    Since I did not have an Apple ID, I, thus, created an Apple ID using the iTunes gift card as the payment method (this then act as "redeemed" iTunes gift card).
    Everything was setup perfect except the fact that when I tried to buy the GEMS from Clash of Clans, it will not allow me to purchase them.
    I had written to Apple, and all the Customer Support said was "I'm unable to help you further as your iTunes account is non-compliant". Then, he/she just gave me a link to Apple iTunes' Store Terms and Conditions.
    My questions are:
    1) is there away for me to fix this issue do I can use the money in my account; or
    2) send the money back to my father via iTunes gift card?
    If any of you can help, I'd appreciate it very much.
    Thanks.

    When I tried to purchase the gems, it said "please contact apple support".
    The support did not say "why" it is non-compliant. He/she just gave me a link to the iTunes Store Terms and Conditions.
    I'm a registered USA based iTunes member trying to purchase the gems ...
    May be I can buy gift again and resend the money back as gift.

  • Can you use iTunes card to purchase apps?

    redeemed my iTunes card but don't know how to use it to purchase apps

    Open the App Store and purchase. It will use your balance from your redeemed iTunes card. Redeemed cards work in iTunes Store, App Store, Mac App Store and iBookstore.

    Thanks for the welcome and the reply!
    I looked at KB25882 and my settings are good, so that didn't help.
    I had this problem over a year ago, and someone at RIM found a bit set that shouldn't have been set and fixed it (that is my terminology for what happened).
    I am really looking for a way to contact RIM directly.  I hate going through the mill with my carrier to get it escalated to RIM for resolution......  <sigh>
    Hi mgpainter 
                                Most easiest way to Contact RIM is through your Carrier but as you don't prefer that than there is another way of support called Incident Based Support but just want to inform you that its not free.If you want have a try  BlackBerry Incident Based Support .
    Good Luck

    Can i use itunes giftcards to purchase ibooks?  If so, how?

    Hi Mystere,
    Click on the iBooks app, select Store, and then either search for the book you want or browse the store. You should be able to then purchase a book, and your iTunes credit should be applied first (like any iTunes purchase that has a gift card credit).
