How To Send Gift From Mac App Store
Hi.
My friend got a new Macbook. I want to send them a gift of an app from the Mac App Store (not iTunes or iOS).
How can I send them an app or dollar amount as a gift from the mac app store?

If your friend ives in another country there isn't anything that you can do. But if the friend lives in the same country as you and uses the same Mac App Store (MAS) as you, you can send the friend an iTunes/App Store Gift Card or an electronic iTunes Gift certificate to cover the cost of the app or other content. You cannot gift MAS apps and games as you can iTunes content.

Thank you. I will try the gift card route.
Anyone know WHY? What's Apple's reason for this?
See the other place that you just asked the question.
