Why can I not register with iTunes

Hi I have been trying to download apps etc but it keeps saying I have not used iTunes yet,when I try to register it says I need to contact apple .Do u have to register a credit card in order to download apps etc. this is my first iPad . Also do you have to sign in every time you want to download something? This is getting quite frustrating. Any help much appreciated.

Did you plug it in? Do you have the current version of iTunes on your computer? If you have a Mac, does it meet the minimum requirements (OS X 10.6.8 or higher)?
You have to give us something to go on here...

  • HT4914 Why can I not update my iTunes Match subscription from my iPad? Must I access from a PC?

    I have been getting emails syaing my iTunes Match subscription will expire soon and if I do not renew I will not be able to access my music on iCloud. Also, it says I cannot update my account from an iOS device. But I no longer have iTunes installed on a PC - I only access from an iPad or iPhone. What can I do?

    I always get an error message "Cannot update iOS software" or something to that effect everytime I try. I've tried plugging my iPad to my laptop computer and then my computer directly to internet connection (we have a router that allows WiFi access, so I thought I'd try to bypass the router instead), but this did not work.  I've tried restoring my iPad via connected to my computer through iTunes, that worked for a short time and was able to update the apps I wanted, but soon after one of the apps stopped working properly, and then the apps I wanted to get from the App Store just wouldn't install or load...Instead they would be having "Waiting..." for the longest time until I give up and delete them. I've tried restarting my iPad, no luck either.  I've also gone through the Reset process of "Erase All Content and Settings" i.e., Restore, and like mentioned above, it worked for a little while then it went back to square one, as I mentioned a sentence or two previously.
    I've no idea what is going on, why it's not working, or anything.  I just wonder if it's got anything to do with a slow internet connection (we don't have high-speed internet access), or something else I haven't found that may be just under my nose.
    I would love some help and input into my situation, all and any ways which allow me to keep my current iPad (which is the New Generation one), not having to trash it and replace it with a new one.
    Have you tried to restore as a new device? Maybe a glitch exists on the restored backup, try this:

  • My Ipod Classic will not register with itunes

    I have followed all the steps to help fix this problem. My ipod stopped syncing and charging when connected to my computer and itunes no longer recognises my ipod so i can not get into the ipod itself to do anything through Itunes. As recommended by Apple as a last resort i was able to get my ipod to come up in my Itunes long enough to restore factory settings. Even after all that my ipod now does not show up, can not sync, can not charge except through its wall plug, and is completely empty so i can not use it. Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

    You might want to read through this post I recently wrote summarizing what can lead to synchronization problems. My first suggestion would be to determine whether the problem lies with iTunes/your computer or the iPod itself. To that end, if you have a friend with a working iTunes setup (or at the Apple store), I'd see if you can get that machine to at least connect to your iPod and restore it with something... anything. If that works, you know the iPod itself is OK and not corrupted, and you can look at disk diagnostics and such. If that doesn't work, then contact a Genius bar for service.
    If the problem is on the iTunes/your computer side, my post cited above should help. I'd suspect the problem is in the underlying Apple media drivers, and I'd move back through the iTunes versions until I find one that works. Note that, at some point, you may no longer be able to read the backed Itunes library (and do back up your libraries). If that happens, you should be able to reimport your music from where it is on disk, but you may lose metadata such as ratings, play counts, and playlists.

  • Iphone and 3 ipods not registering with iTunes since upgrading to version 10.4!

    Good day and thanks for your help.  AppleCare has been unable to solve or identify my problem.  Since upgrading to version 10.4 I am unable to have my iphone or ipods be recognized in iTunes.  I have deleted and reloaded iTunes four times, as instructed by my AppleCare tech.  I still cannot see any devices in iTunes.  I am running a Dell Latitude D620 with XP, Service Pack 3.  My device manager shows all USB ports are active and working properly.  I have tried multiple Apple sync cables.  My phone and cable work fine on my wife's laptop, so I do not believe it is a hardware issue with the cable or phone.
    I heard a rumor that I need USB 2.0 ports for version 10.4.  I believe my ports are version 1.  Is this true?  If so, how can I find and reinstall iTunes version 10.3.
    Thank you for your time and assistance.  I am extremely frustrated by this process!

  • Setting up iCloud family sharing. Why can I not use my iTunes as a valid payment method?

    Why is iTunes card not a option under payment method. I am wanting to setup iCloud Family Sharing. But I need to give Apple a credit card which I do not have. That is why I use the iTunes card and redeem the money. If it is good enough to use iTunes card when making purchase from Apple iTunes store then why is it not an option when setting up iCloud Family Sharing account.

    You're allowed play the music on up to 5 devices. Each device must be authorised. Unless you can connect the xbox to the apple store to be authorised, you will not be able to play the music on it.

  • HT1420 why can I not download my iTunes to my Samsung galaxy tablet 10.1?

    I bought a streaming movie but cannot play this without iTunes.   I would have bought this from flixster if I had known it would only go to iTunes and I cannot stream this on my ultraviolet account. I won't buy another movie from iTunes again. I tried to download to my windows computer,  it only plays with iTunes and you don't have an app to play this movie on my tablet, I got the DVD and finally converted this with my computer.  I have an ipod,  but when I buy a movie to stream,  I  think I should be able to stream this paid for movie, and not only on my small ipod?  You nood an app to coordinate with multiple devices, or make us aware that I con only stream the movie on a computer.

    We are all itunes users just like you.
    Itunes movies are for Itunes and apple devices only

  • Why can't i backup with iTunes 11

    I am trying to backup with my Imac 27" running Lion, but I can't find any devices to back my Itunes library to.  I want to back up using my DVD +R-DL disks.  Am I doing something wrong?  (Just in case, I'm upgrading right now to Mountain Lion and will try again.)
    Thanks,

    p.s. running with Itunes 11.0.1 on my desktop.

    This update is terrible; consider yourself lucky if you can't download it. I wish I read all of the complaints before installling. Without Steve Jobs, Apple's reign is over. It's just been one crappy decision after the other. For Christmas I'm buying different devices.

  • Why does my iPod not register with iTunes when I plug it in?

    My iPod has been having a continual preoblem, where it shuffles through my entire library, song by song, and stops at each one for about a second each. It has happened a few other times. I plug it into my pc to try to correct the problem, but my iPod doesn't reister with my iTunes. Does anyone know what's wrong? I'm beginning to think I have a defective iPod.
