Why do i need to give them my credit card when i just want to redeem a gift card

I have itunes set up on our home computer. We got a iTunes gift card, so we tried to buy an album I entered the verification code on the back of the card. the top righthand side of the screen successfully registered the $15. Then when I went to buy an album, it wouldn't let me unless I entered credit card information. Why does it demand my credit card when I am not paying by credit card? When you buy something at a store with cash or a gift card, they don't demand your credit card.

Please see the information here -> Create an iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store account without a credit card or other payment method - Apple Suppor…

Why does my printer automatically go to send a fax when I just want to print?

Hi pa_tom,
In your printers folder on your computer, is the default printer set to your printer, or your printer- fax?

Why do I need a serial number to run photoshop when I just purchased a cloud subscription?

Just paid for a monthly photoshop subscription, but it's telling me I need a serial number to run it and doesn't seem to be recognizing that I already paid for it? The transaction went through fine, I got a confirmation email saying I bought it.
Anyone know what to do in this situation? Thanks.

may be the subscription is not activated yet.
However , we will try with 2 steps.
First we will check with Hosts file .
1)Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc and look for file named hosts inside etc folder.
2)Copy the hosts file to Desktop and open the same with notepad.
Let me know whether you can see Any Adobe related entries inside ?

Re: Why does my printer automatically go to send a fax when I just want to print?

I just installed and then uninstalled a Canon printer to my computer. Now, I cannot print. When I go to print, it takes me to a fax page. My 6600 is designated as the default printer. Please help.

Welcome to the HP Forums okbyme,
I see by your post that the printer is set as the default printer, but when trying to print it defaults to the fax driver.
I can help you with this issue.
Clear out the print spool folder.
How to Clear Current Print Queue In Windows Vista & Windows 7.
From the application, go to file, print and select the printer in the print dialogue box to see if it will print.
Try opening the application, go to file, print, right click on the printer driver and select set as default.
Close the window and try again to see if the default printer changed back again.
If you are not actively using your Fax driver then remove it from your Devices and Printers folder.
The only other option would be to fully uninstall and reinstall the printer software. The printer driver might have become corrupted.

you don't need a cc subscription to use the purchased copy.
download the installation file and use your serial number to activate when given the licensing option during installation. you should install 5.7 instead of installing 5.0 and updating.

Why do v need 2 generate new smartform from scratch when v have a standard

hi experts
why do v need 2 generate new smartform from scratch when v have so many standard smartforms can any one explain in detail the scenario where v have 2 do that
thanks
bhanu

Hello Bhanu,
Standard smartforms are for standard SAP applications.
Every client will customise standard SAP to suit their own requirements. So if there is a requirement specific to the cleint, they can ask us to develop a custom Smartform.

Put your install DVD into the optical drive (CD/DVD drive) and reboot. Be sure to either use the disc that came with your Mac, or, if you installed a later Mac OS X version from disc, use the newer disc. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c" key on your keyboard (or the Option Key until the Install Disk shows up) until the apple shows up. That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Choose your language and press the Return key on your keyboard once. It will then present you with an Installation window.
Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Disk Utility and click it. You should see your hard drive in the left hand column along with your other drives. Click on the drive and select the Erase tab. Set the format value to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and click the Erase button. After that has finished select the Partition tab. Type in a Name for your hard drive and select how many partitions you want from the Volume Scheme. The usual setting is one partition. Click on the Options button after you've selected a partition to make sure it's set for GUID. Then click the Apply button and after the Partitioning is done quit Disk Utility.
You can now follow the instructions on the install screen

HT2736 why am I getting a message suddenly that I am exceeding the gift card limit on my iTunes id for buying gift cards? I have never had a problem before and have a good credit card on file.

why am I getting a message suddenly that I am exceeding the gift card limit on my iTunes id for buying gift cards? I have never had a problem before and have a good credit card on file. I bought a $50 card for my son and then went to buy another one and it was refused and has continued to be for a week telling me a I am exceeding the gift card limit for my account? Insights here?

Interesting.
Didn't know Apple accepted PayPal as a payment option in some Stores. Cause they sure don't over here.

If I buy an iPhone 4S (the unlocked and contract-free version), do I need to add a microSIM card if I just want to use it as an iPod Touch?

If I buy an iPhone 4S (the unlocked and contract-free version), do I need to add a microSIM card if I just want to use it as, essentially, an iPod Touch? I'll probably get a microSIM card eventually, but I just need the wi-fi based technology now. Anyone know?

It will not do anything (other than call 911) until you activate it with a microSIM. Look into an iPod Touch instead.
