I have an Apple US account, I live in South Korea because I"m in the military, I am trying to send a Korean friend a gift from iBooks, she said she got the email to redeem but it wont download? This is frustrating........

    You can't, you can only gift content to people whose account is based in the same country as your own

     

    From http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2736 :

     

    Note: When purchasing an iTunes Gift, a valid credit card must be on file; you can't purchase an iTunes Gift with store credit. You can't redeem purchased gifts outside of the country of purchase. For example, an iTunes Gift purchased in France can't be redeemed in an iTunes Store outside of France.
