Why I can't use a spanish iTunes gift-card with my austrian account?

I have an autrian Itunes account and am right now in Spain for holydays.
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
You cannot use another countries itunes cards.
Give it to someone in Spain, who has a Spanish itunes account.

  • Seperate Apple IDs for seperate Itunes gift cards with one Icloud account

    My wife and I both have Iphone 4s and we have one central Itunes account with all of our music on one Icloud account.   We like to listen to "OUR SHARED" music on each of our Iphone's.  Now here is our major problem:
    We each have recieved Itunes gift cards and would really like to keep the spending sepearate but both of us have access to music and videos to each of us have purchased.  We would like the ability to share the music between the two of us.  We are trying to avoid the accident of purchasing the same song twice for example.  Waste of money in my opinion. 
    I have spoken to a few apple helpers at the local apple store and were said you can do just look up the Apple support commnities.  But I have not found any luck.
    I then went ahead and spoke to two Apple tech support by phone one said she was not sure then the second which was a manager said that the Icloud is not made for music it is only made for contacts, notes, backup iphone or ipad, etc. 
    I thought she was full of hot air.  We can download all of our music through Itunes match in the icloud.  I tried to explain to her but she was oblivious.  Sad that someone in the Apple Tech support does not know her own product. 
    This is the first time in four years I have become semi frustrated with an apple product.  Everything else has been awesome to date. 
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    This is the screen that pops up when I attempt to purchase an app.  It does not allow me to use my Touch ID.

  • HT201209 Can I use a UK itunes gift card on an overseas ipad ?

    Based in Spain..itunes have my spanish bank account registered so I cannot buy off the UK itunes site. If I buy a UK gift card, can I redeem it , or will Itunes still pick up a Spanish ip address ?

    You will need to be in the UK with a valid UK billing address to be able to use a UK gift card.
    All the iTunes stores state that you need to be within in the country to use it e.g. for the UK store :
    The Service is available to you only in the United Kingdom. You agree not to use or attempt to use the Service from outside this location. iTunes may use technologies to verify your compliance.

  • Why I can't active it my iTunes gift card

    I Can't active it iTunes gift card

    Because the people at the store the gift card came from didn’t activate it. Ask them or the iTunes Store staff for assistance.

  • 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.

    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 use a U.S. iTunes gift card with Cdn registration?

    System does not recognize U.S. code on gift card on the Canadian site and I do not know how to cancel my Canadian registration so that I can set up a U.S. registration. I have addresses in both countries so it appears I should be able to register and buy songs when I have gift cards in both U.S. and Canadian dollars and depending on which country I am in.

    Gift card are country specific. You can not use any country's gift card in another country.
    You cannot buy from another country's itunes store either.
    You may be able to sell your itunes card to someone in the U.S. and buy a Canadian itunes card.

  • Why can't I move an iTunes gift card?

    I just got our SeniorNet Computer Learning Center into Apple computers and tablets two years ago (Dec 2011) and I'm beginning to wish I hadn't. Here's the latest "policy" problem with Apple I've encountered.  We have 10 Apple computers and 14 Apple tablets (iPads) and I've created unique Apple IDs for each device. When I upgraded the software on the Apple computers I had to assign my PERSONAL credit card to the account long enough to order the Mountain Lion upgrade and then I immediately removed my credit card from the account. I didn't like doing it because all of our students know the Apple ID and password for each computer so there was an exposure but I lived with it. However, it would be MUCH better (and SAFER for me), if I could order the upgrades for the desired Apple IDs, using my personal Apple ID account. I keep hoping Apple will hire some smarter people that might see the flaw in their current policy and change it.
    Now, onto the latest policy problem. As part of teaching the iPads, I wanted to have a song on each iPad, purchased from the iTunes store. You already know my concern with assigning my PERSONAL credit card to an Apple ID account created for our computers so I really didn't want to follow that procedure in order to purchase a song for each iPad. My solution was to buy a $25 iTunes gift card. I could then apply the gift card to the first iPad Apple ID, purchase the desired song, then remove the gift card from that Apple ID and apple the gift card to the next Apple ID. That way, our maximum monetary exposure is whatever the balance is on the gift card rather than my available credit on my PERSONAL credit card. Sounded like a much safer plan than having to enter my PERSONAL credit card information on each Apple ID for all of our iPads.
    Now, we encounter the latest DUMB Apple "policy".  It was really easy to redeem the Apple gift card on the first Apple ID. I scratched off the label to reveal the code, entered it into iTunes, and was able to purchase a song for that Apple ID. Now, all I had to do was to remove that code from that Apple ID and move it to our other Apple IDs in order to purchase the remaining songs. The iTunes gift card balance would follow it, just like gift cards you purchase anywhere else.
    I went into the account for the first iPad in order to remove the gift card but was unable to find out how to do it. I went into Apple Support and sent an email, asking how I could remove the iTunes gift card from the current Apple ID and move it to the next Apple ID. I just received a reply back this morning from Aaron: The BAD NEWS, currently, once you redeem an iTunes gift card on an Apple ID, you can't remove it from that Apple ID!!!  I'm now stuck with an iTunes gift card with a balance of something over $23 and I'm unable to use it to purchase the other songs for each of our other iPads! I have no reason to purchase anything else from iTunes for that Apple ID so our SeniorNet Computer Learning Center is OUT the remaining balance on the iTunes gift card!
    Apple needs to CHANGE this policy, IMMEDIATELY!!!

    It says, cannot complete transaction, contact iTunes support.  When I contact iTunes support it leads nowhere specific.

  • Can you use an iTunes gift card on two different accounts?

    can you use an iTunes gift card on two different accounts? on two different computers?

    A Gift card will add a specified amount of mony to an iTunes account identified with a specific Apple ID (email address and password combination).
    If that Account is set up on both Devices, then they will share the money balance in that account. And can purchase things in the store with that balance.

  • I was initially in the UK apps store and i switched to the USA apps store with an itunes gift card..since then i cannot see my previous purchases in the UK store,, now i'm back in the UK and want to switch back using a £15 itunes gift card but can't..HELP

    I was initially in the UK apps store and i switched to the USA apps store with a $15 itunes gift card because my credit card from the UK expired..since the switch i couldn't find my previous purchases in the UK store,, now i'm back in the UK and want to switch back using a £15 itunes gift card but whenever i try to switch, itunes tells me i still have credit on my existing US gift card, meanwhile i only have $0.22 which can't buy anything at the apps store..how dow i clear up the balance and switch to the UK apps store...HELP!!!

    You might just have to contact Apple and ask them to remove it (losing it). Usually people clear a balance by buying one song and having the exact remainder charged  to their credit card, but if you don't have a US credit card you cannot do that.

  • 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.

    You will need to do what it says, contact iTunes Support. These are user-to-user support forums, if you thought you were contacting Apple by posting here. Go here:

  • Can I use multiple Apple store gift cards per transaction or is it has to be one gift card per transaction?

    Can I use multiple Apple store gift cards (£25 each) per transaction or is it has to be only one gift card per transaction?? Does anyone know thanks

    Hola, Eddy
    notice that you have posted to an old thread (Oct-Nov2013) that actually took quite some time to get attention back then**
    I recommend that you contact the Store Group regarding your purchase question - don't let the "iTune-ish" URL and page title throw you off... it's the right place
    Store Group - Contact Us - Apple Support
    ** next time you have a question, I advise to check the dates carefully and if older than a month or so, AND it has no answer to your specific issue, start a NEW Question. You did a fine job of stating your exact issue - many folks, not so much.

  • 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
