Tried gifting a movie to a friend. Followed instruction but after I fill in the email address where it says To:, I hit next and I get this message. What am I doing wrong?
I get a message that says Invalid Gift you must enter a valid recipient email address. What am I doing wrong.

Unless "Nora Ebata" is the name of a contact that has a valid e-mail address (and the Send Gift dialog accepts contact names, the way that the Mail application would), you aren't providing a valid e-mail address.
A valid e-mail address would have the form username@domain, e.g. Steve.Jobs@apple.com.
The system may be taking one look at "Nora Ebata" and saying "there's no '@', so it can't possibly be an e-mail address."

If it's not working with an e-mail address, you might want to contact Apple and ask them what's going on.
iTunes - Official Apple Support
Nora Ebata is in my contact with both her work and personal email address. When I type in her personal email address, iTune autofills her name.
I just tried again after reading your suggestion and was able to just have her email address appear after To:. I hit next, and I got the same dialogue box with the same message. Could this be a bug?
Servant of Cats thank you for all your suggestions. Spent 3 hours on the phone with 4 support people and even level 2 support, and no resolution. Does anyone else has a problem gifting a movie, or is it only me?
Again, thank you Servant of Cats for your suggestions.
my phone not working itunes
Gifting a movie from the iTune store does not work.
