Gift Redemption by URL

by Erica Sadun (RSS feed) on Nov 10th, 2006

Got an iTunes Giftcard that iTunes doesn't want to recognize? Try using a direct URL to fix the problem. Pop the following URL into your favorite web browser after logging into your iTunes account. (Substitute the actual gift code for the YOURCODEHERE part.) The URL connects to iTunes and attempts to load the code by the "back door" so to speak.

Here's the magic URL, though make sure you enter it all on one line:

https://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZFinance.woa/wa/
com.apple.jingle.app.finance.DirectAction/freeProductCodeWizard?code=YOURCODEHERE

Tip of the Day

To get an instant map to any address, just go to your Address Book and right click on the address field of any one of your contacts and select "Map Of." The address will then be revealed in Google Maps on Safari. You can do the same if a data detector determines there is an address in an e-mail in Mail.
