HT2736 I have a $25 gift card I redeemed but when I try to purchase a song it wants to charge my credit card? How do I use the credit I have?

I have a $25 gift card that I redeemed but when I try to purchase a song it is not deducting from the credit and wants to charge my credit card. How do I use the credit on the accoung?

Nonesense, why would a service that offers redeemable cards as cash would require a credit card verification. Who is answering this question? I am sick of Apple! I am here because I want to buy music for the year end festivities and had this card that I got when I bought a very pricey Mac Book Pro for my daughter, I thought at least I was getting something out of an outrageously high priced machine, but no, they cant' just make things easy for you... Anyway, no one seems to be reading this so I am not wasting my time anymore, useless...

Why is it wanting to charge my credit card and not use the money that is in apple account?

why when making purchasing apps is it wanting to charge my credit card and not the balance that is the account?

Should have also mentioned it does the same on my iphone and when i try to download music from itunes.
My account does show that i am £25 in credit so my redeem code was accepted

HT2534 I have a $70 credit in my iTunes account but when i bought an album last night it charged by credit card not the itunes account. How do I reverse this and get the itunes account used up first?

How did you create the account ? Unless the instructions on this page are followed when creating an account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store.
If you are being prompted to review the account then see if this post by mountaingoatgirl lets you do so without needing to enter credit card details : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24303054
If not then you will need to enter your credit card details - you should be able to remove it after entering it.

When I go to use my credit on itunes it wants to charge my credit card intstead of using my credit, how do I use my credit

I am trying to use my credit for itunes and when ever I go to buy a song it wants me to use my credit card but I want to use up my credit first, how do I do this?

What makes you think it is charging the card? Maybe it is only a hold

HT5035 A friend of mine gifted me a $10 itunes gift on Facebook or my birthday.. I punched in the gift card like the store asked. I went to try and buy something and it keeps wanting to charge my debit card.. I can't find that I have a $10 credit anywhere

Can anyone tell me how I find my balance.. This is crazy.. Every turn I take I have to input my itunes identity.. Its ******** this should be soo complicated or am I just an idiot?? If I am fine!! I still need help!! LOL !!
I've tried to make a purchase and it wants to charge my credit card.. Where did the $10.00 go that should be to my credit from the gift?? ARG!!!! Thanks to all for letting me vent.. Any help greatly appreciated...

The Mac App Store prices do not include local sales taxes. The tax is added to the total before your sale is complete. Your gift card credit total is not enough to complete the sale, so you are being given the opportunity to add a bank card that will be charged the remainder of the amount. Your other option is to get another gift card and bump up the credit balance in your account.

When the option to buy music from israel will be available?

Hello
I want to know when the option to buy music from Israel will be available
Because I want to buy music from itunes and I noticed that it is impossible for Israel
Thank you for consideration

How would anyone here know that?
I beleive it's against the rules of these discussions to speculate on Apple policy.

When I try to buy something, I get an Apple-ID which is not the one I want to use, and I don't know how to get rid of it either, so that I can use my ID, which is in Mail, Contacts etc. The ID I get, I can't find, so that I can delete it. What to do?

When I try to buy something, I get an Apple-ID which is not the one I want to use, and I don't know how to get rid of it either, so that I can replace it with my ID in Mail, contacts etc. The ID I get without wanting it, I can't find anywhere. I have to delete it. How do I solve this problem, anyone?

My content was obtained through another ID, which popped up earlier. Now this one doesn't pop up, and my current ID doesn't pop up either, but another one. How do you find an ID which is not in the store, and not in Mail, contacts etc. either?
Or is it possible to write the ID yourself when you want to buy something, not only to have it popped up being unable to be changed?

Look on one of your bank statements and be sure to enter the billing address exactly as it shows on the statement. Some folks forget where they actually get the statement. They put their home address in iTunes/Mac App Store and they actually get the statement at their place of employment or vice versa.

Why is it when I try to download music an error message pops up and will not let me buy the music?

Click here for information. If you can't reset them through the method described in that article or by sending yourself a rescue email(the email may take a few hours to arrive), contact the iTunes Store staff via the link in the 'Additional Information' section.
It isn't possible to create a rescue email address without correctly answering two of the questions. Nobody on these boards can reset them for you.
