Can I transfer iTunes credit between accounts? How would I go about doing so? The question pretty well speaks for itself. I have two accounts, one for my iPod, one for my iPhone, I have passwords to both accounts, I can handle talking to CustSer if that's what needs be, but I was curious if I can transfer the funds without going through customer service. Should I just "gift" myself purchases? |

This totally will not work. iTunes explicitly says gift certificate balances can not be used to purchase other gift certificates. I will call apple tomorrow to find another work around. |

Gifting content from one account to the other would be the simplest way to accomplish what you are looking for (albeit, this means you have to do the gifting from the device with the funds). |

IIRC, you can use your account balance to send another user a (virtual) gift card. |

Have you tried making an allowance to the desired account? That works between $10 and $50 so you should be able to drain any amount more than $10 this way over time by making sure the last month balance is at least $10. It doesn't involve purchasing a new gift card which is explicitly not allowed and may just work. You can gift apps for the last $10 if the balance is initially less than $10 or the math doesn't work out nicely. You might want to remove your credit card temporarily from the sending account in case it charges the allowance instead of spending down a store credit. |

You can not transfer allowance you have already redeemed onto a separate account - I am having just this problem at the moment and I am seriously pissed off with the difficulty and the lack of help ITunes give |

By the way, it's totally possible to call and get a credit issued as a check, if the balance was put there by a credit card or the like. This was how I ended up with such a balance, and I did not know you could do this. :D |
