App Store fails to redeem $25 Apple Gift Card on iMac

This is a $25 Apple Everything card purchased from Target within the last couple of hours. The Apple Website verified that the card has a $25 balance. There is probably something messed up with my account because it keeps asking me to log in with the iMac system password.

Do not post a photo of the card here and never show us a password. Not sure what the intentions are for cjcuc257, but that is only something a scammer would ask for.


What you need to do is follow the steps here to redeem the Gift Card on a Mac. It is best done on a device, not online.
