Re: Apple ID isn’t yet used


Seems you may need a payment method in your Apple ID account.


Even if you are downloading only free apps,

Apple seems to require a valid payment method for the first time you use your Apple ID in the App Store, or iTunes ? Music.


Check the payment methods that you can use with your Apple ID:

(Scroll down to find your country or region)

Payment methods that you can use with your Apple ID - Apple Support


How to: Change, add, or remove Apple ID payment methods - Apple Support


Get apps in the App Store on iPhone – Apple Support (AU)


After you have used the App Store or iTunes for the first time, you can remove the payment method if you wish:


All the best :-)
