Hi

I'm stuck my nephew has an ipod 4th gen and can't remember his apple details so I tried to make him a new one HOW the hell do you do it without putting in credit card details as he don't have one nor do his parents there must be a way but I can't work it out.

any help please.
 
try using a different email id - i thik it wont allow you create an account without credit card if you're using a public email id like yhoo, hotmail, gmail etc....

if you have a company email id that should work. cheers
 
Here is some more info that might help.

1. Download any FREE application inside the store on any Apple device without an account.

2. Once the pop up window opens, hit 'CREATE A NEW ACCOUNT.'

3. Make sure you use a fresh, new email that you have not yet attempted to use prior to this explanation (create a new email if you have to.)

4. Fill in the required fields to continue on to the second page. (When my cousin was doing this a few minutes ago, he put a fake birth year, a year that made him under the age of 18, thus perhaps helping towards card problems)

5. Once you are on the page that asks for your payment information, on the top section, grouped in under the credit cards, there will be an option labled 'NONE.' Select it, and fill in your billing information.

The option none is there, but after you select next, it loops you to the top of the screen and nothing happens. It also says "For assistance, contact iTunes Support" It's very lame!

and if you can't select None when editing my payment information? have a look at this link h**p://support.apple.com/kb/TS5366
