1. If you already have an account, open iTunes. From the menu bar choose Store > Sign Out.
2. Click iTunes Store (on the left side of the iTunes window) and pick your country by clicking the appropriate country flag located in the bottom-right corner of the main iTunes Store page.
   [*]Navigate to the App Store by clicking on App Store from the top navigation bar.
   [*]Important: Before proceeding to the next step, you must download and install a free app. To find a free app, navigate to the Top Charts column on the right side of the App Store window. Scroll down until you see the list of Free Apps. Select any app by clicking on it. Then click Free App underneath the app icon.
   [*]You are directed to the "Welcome to the iTunes Store" screen. Click Continue.
   [*]You'll need to read and agree to the iTunes Store Terms & Conditions. Make sure you check the box next to where it says "I have read and agree to the iTunes Terms and Conditions."
   Click Continue.
   [*]Enter your email address, create your password, continue to create and answer your security question, and enter your birthday. Click Continue.
   [*]Select None as the payment option.

Rest of the steps can be found on the support document. If you're wanting to do it with an account already created, just follow the steps from #4 onwards.

That's how I did it, IIRC.


Either that, or you enter in a gift card, and then it gives you an option to not enter anything in. I don't quite remember, it was a long time ago.
