Creating Itunes Account for Child

I used the work around of setting up an allowance for my children in iTunes and it let me create apple IDs for them. I set up to put $10 a month in their account and then went back in and suspended it. So now they have their own apple IDs but I'm not putting money into their accounts yet.

Is your child under 13? I am trying to set up an Apple ID for my 10 y/o and it won't save the information even after letting me create the Apple ID when I set up the allowance. I understand limiting the purchasing part to a child mature enough to handle transactions but I wan't my child to be able to use his music player and download music whenever I give him funds for it. It just doesn't let me 😟

Hi

I would suggest you create a iTunes account without adding a credit card..see link below on how

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534

Adjust the birthday to allow apple to create the account by adjusting the birthday...that's it. Account for kid without giving out your create card #..

The birthday cannot be adjusted later.

One can't get a different game centre id. I'm looking for getting a coherent id.

they now have a program to let kids under 13 have an account witch works though the schools so the kids can have there own apple id to work on the schools ipads and such. you have to get the start of the id though the school and then make changes to it like set the email address for the id. http://www.apple.com/education/docs/Apple_ID_Parent_Guide.pdf

this is the guide pdf for it. also if you want to set up an id with out a c/c you have to go in to the app store with out an id and try to download a free app it will then tell you to make an apple id and when you get to the paymint area there will be a none option you can click on, or you can do what you were doing and just make it and put in your c/c and then just log into you account on itunes and remove the c/c ether way works

This is not working. Apple is not allowing to make student account for below 13yrs.

did you talk to his school, it has to start though the school

Thank you! This was very helpful information!

May be is possible to create a new account upgrading the iOs. I had the same problem and after upgrade to new iOs version, Apple made me possible to register a new id Apple account.

Now that Apple has added Family sharing they have added a way for under 13s to have accounts.
