Why can't we use iTunes gift cards with family sharing? After Christmas, we now have lots of account credit we can't use. Very frustrating. There is no option found for using account credit.

I just logged out of my daughter's account and back in, and now it works. Deducted from gift card account balance. So I hope this is resolved.

  • How can I add gift cards with family sharing?

    I want to be able to share the gift cards with my other family member, anybody know if this is possible?

    They should be able to redeem them with their own iTunes store IDs to create a credit.  Their purchases should then be charged against their credit before any balance due would be charged to the organizer's credit card.

  • HT201209 Can I use my ITunes gift card with a different apple ID?

    Is it possible to use my ITunes Gift card with a new apple ID, that I am trying to create?  I keep getting a message that says "Invalid Code"

    Neither you, your friend, nor Apple can reset the card or transfer the unused balance to your account in any way.

    how to use itunes gift card to buy apps on ipad 2? Do I need a credit card for it?

    I'm sorry, but there is nothing that I can do to help you with this situation. I don't know why, but many people have problems when they try to buy gems in the Clash of Clans game. Personally, I wouldn't touch the game with a ten foot pole, but that's just my opinion.
    You will have to contact iTunes Store Support and ask for their help. You can email them from here.

  • Can and how do you buy an iTunes gift card with an Apple Store gift card?

    Hi. I received an Apple Store gift card as a gift and really want to buy an iTunes gift card with it. I looked it up and nothing returned, so just checking here to see if you guys know anything. Thanks!

    Apple Store Gift Cards can purchase this -
    Use your Apple Store Gift Card for the purchase of a new iPad, iPhone, Mac, or anything else at the Apple Online Store or Apple Retail Store.
    Basicly the Apple store gift card is for purchases such as devices/accessories etc.
    Sorry, to purchase an iTunes gift card will need another way to do so

  • Can I purchase a iTunes gift card with a Apple Store gift card?

    I purchased an apple store gift card instead of an iTunes gift card. Is there a way for me to purchase an iTunes gift card with the an Apple Store gift card?

    From what I see and from my experiment in the U.S, online Apple Store, I would say that yes you can. iTunes gift cards are sold in the Apple Online store and Apple Store gift cards are an accepted form of payment on the store, so that means to me that it is possible.
    Accepted forms of payment.

    My grandpa bought me a 25 EUR iTunes gift-card bit I can't use it.
    I'm really upset about this.... any solution?

    Itunes cards are country specific

  • How to use iTunes gift card on family Share plan

    My teen age son is on our Family Share Plan and he has an iTunes gift card he wants to use to download songs.  I can't figure out a way to set this up unless I remove him from the plan and then add him back in after he has made the purchase.  Any better way to do this?

    Yes, if there is credit in the iTunes account it should use that in preference to any credit cad details held (at least it always does for me).

  • Why not use gift card for family sharing?

    This family sharing feature seems great.  But long gone are the days where I had a credit card on file.  These days I only use gift cards.  But system really wants me to have a credit card to activate this family sharing?  Has anyone been able to do with pure gift cards?
    thanks

    Hi Kestelli,
    In order to set up Family Sharing the family organizer must have a credit card or debit card to use for billing. See this article -
    Family purchases and payments
    If a family member, including the organizer makes a purchase and has gift or store credit, that purchase is first billed to that credit. Family members purchases may not be billed to the organizers store credit unless they are the organizer. See this article -
    How iTunes Store purchases are billed
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • ITunes gift card with pre-paid VISA

    Apple is REALLY starting to frusterate me!
    Okay so, I linked a pre-paid VISA card to my iTunes account (BIG MISTAKE) and I currently have under a dollar left on it. I recently got a $15 iTunes gift card as a present and I redeemed it and it says that I have $15 on my iTunes account. But, when I ty to purchase TweetBot ($2.99), it tells me my credit card has been declined. Why does this happen? Does Apple just ignore the gift card and go straight to paying for the app with my VISA?
    EDIT:
    As dumb as I sound right now, I removed my VISA from my account so that problem is fixed. But now It says "Your Purchase Could Not Be Completed, For assistance, contact iTunes Support at www.apple.com/support/itunes/ww/." How do I fix this now?

    You will need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
    In terms of the pre-paid Visa card, I don't think that you will be able to use them, a credit card needs to be registered to the name and address that you have on your iTunes account so that it can be verified.

    Hello, MirriamMon.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    I understand you are unable to purchase items from the iTunes Store as it  is requiring your old credit card information.  You can try and change your payment method to none and see if it will allow you to make a purchase using your gift car.  However, if there are any outstanding balances, you will be required to enter credit or debit card information before you can make purchases.  
    Change or remove your payment information from your iTunes Store account (Apple ID)
    Why can’t I select None when I edit my Apple ID payment information?
    Cheers, 
    Jason H.
