Using a credit or debit card is the simplest way to create an iTunes
Store account. However, not everyone has one of these cards. For this
reason, Apple offers two alternatives to creating your iTunes Store
account without a credit card. You can set up your iTunes account and
begin purchasing and downloading your favorite music in only a few
minutes.
1. Purchase an iTunes Gift Card. Most major retailers sell iTunes Gift Cards, but you can also order them online. The prepaid amount of the gift card is transferred to your iTunes Store account, which lets you access the funds to purchase music.
If you don't want to purchase an iTunes Gift Card, you can set up a free PayPal account instead. ITunes accepts PayPal as an alternative to credit cards and gift cards. Because you do not have a credit card, you will need a checking or savings account to set up a PayPal account (see Resources).
2. Open iTunes. Click "Store" on the top navigation bar. Select "Create Account." Click "Continue" at the welcome screen.
3. Read over the terms and conditions, then click "Continue" again. Enter your email address. This will be your Apple ID, used to log in to your iTunes Store account.
4. Enter a six-digit password, then enter it again for verification. Create a security question and answer. This is used to help recover your password in case you forget it. Click "Continue" to move on.
5. Scratch off the gray film on the back of your iTunes Gift card. Type the number in the iTunes Gift Cards "Code" box.
If you're using a PayPal account instead of an iTunes Gift card, check the box next to "PayPal" and click "Continue." A web browser window will open. Enter your PayPal account's user name and password and click "Log In." Then click "I Agree." This links your PayPal account with your iTunes store account. Click "Continue to iTunes Store."
6. Enter your full name, address and telephone number. Click "Continue." Your iTunes Store account is now created. You can begin shopping for your favorite music, movies or TV shows.

There's another way to set up an Itunes account that you don't have to purchase a gift card, it is completely free.
Although the iTunes Store primarily sells music, movies and TV shows, it can also be used to download applications for your iPod Touch and iPhone. If you wish to use the iTunes App Store without a credit card, you can do so by creating an account with no credit card or PayPal account attached. By setting up an iTunes account with no credit card or PayPal linked to it, you are limited to downloading free applications. To purchase iTunes media in the future, you must edit your payment information in your iTunes Store account.
1. Click the "iTunes" icon on your Macintosh screen's dock, or double-click the iTunes icon on your PC's desktop.
2. Click the "iTunes Store" tab in the iTunes source list, and scroll down to the "Free Apps" section in the iTunes window. Click the "FREE" button on any of the applications listed in the section.
3. Click the "Create An Account" button in the pop-up window in iTunes and click the "Continue" button.
4. Select the box next to the iTunes license agreement, and click "Continue."
5. Type in your email address and a password for the new iTunes account. Type in a security question, and type the answer to the question in the blank field below the security question.
6. Select the drop-down menu next to the "Month" and "Day" section to select your birth date, and click "Continue."
7. Click the circle next to "None," and enter your mailing address in the appropriate field. Click "Continue."
8. Open your email program to view the email message sent from Apple, and click the link in the email message to verify your account.
9. Type in your email address and password in the iTunes Sign In window, and press the "Return" or "Enter" key to sign in. Click the "Done" button to complete the free account setup.
