You'll need to have a valid reason for the request—it's not meant to be a way to get free trials or short term use— but if you buy something by accident, buy the wrong thing, or get the wrong thing, it's how you get your money back. <!--break--></p> <h2>How to get a refund using iTunes</h2> <ol><li>Launch <strong>iTunes</strong> on either your Mac or Windows PC. </li> <li>Click on your <strong>name</strong> at the top and in the dropdown select <strong>Account Info</strong>.</li> <li>Type in your <strong>password</strong> when prompted in order to proceed. </li> <li>Click on <strong>See All</strong> under your <strong>Purchase History</strong>. </li> <li>Click on the <strong>arrow</strong> next to the purchase batch that contains the purchase you'd like a refund for. </li> <li>Click on <strong>Report a Problem</strong> next to the <strong>single</strong> purchase you'd like a refund for, unless there is only one, then you may use the large Report a Problem button. </li> <li>You will be routed to Apple's website.

</li> </ol><h2>How to get a refund using your iPhone or iPad</h2> <p>Apple hasn't built any links to problem reporting into the iTunes Store or App Store apps, so if you're stuck using the web on your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad as well. If it's more convenient, you can go directly to problem reporting via your email receipt.</p> <ol><li>Launch <strong>Mail</strong> from your Home screen.</li> <li>Search for "Your receipt from Apple" if it's not immediately visible. </li> <li>Tap on the receipt for the purchase your want refunded. (Unless you remember the date, there's no way to tell which receipt is which unless you tap it to open it, so you might end up tapping a lot...)</li> <li>Tap the purchase you want to report.
