Having an Apple ID It is highly recommended if we have any Apple device. With our iTunes account we can download applications, music, books and we can even listen to Beats 1 and follow our artists on Connect. In addition, we can also configure alerts, such as alerts for when an artist releases a disc.
Many of these services can be used without setting up a payment method. Downloading free apps, manuals from the iBooks Store, or the 24/7 Apple Music radio are several examples. If you want to have an Apple ID to download free content from the App Store (among others), you can do it from a Mac or PC with iTunes or from an iPhone. In this guide we will explain how to create an Apple ID with iTunes.
How to create an Apple ID with iTunes
These are the steps you must follow to create your Apple account without a credit card using iTunes:
- Step 1:: We open iTunes.
- Step 2:: We go to the App Store and look for one free application.
- Step 3:: We click on Get.
- Step 4:: A window will appear to enter our Apple ID. We choose Create Apple ID.
- Step 5:: Next, we click on Continue.
- Step 6:: We mark the box that we have read everything and click on Accept.
- Step 7:: Next we fill in all the data and touch on Continue. If you don't want to be bothered with promotional emails, uncheck both boxes.
- Step 8:: Next we select as payment method None and click on Create Apple ID.
Logically, if we do not configure a payment method, we will not be able to download anything that is not free. At the same time that we try to download any disc, book or payment application, we will be asked to enter a credit card, a code or an iTunes gift card. Otherwise, the transaction will not go through.
