Restoring purchases :(

It sounds like it is wanting to charge you but to get past the credit card request page, you could put in a test credit card number. I have done that for students before who are setting up Amazon accounts for their Kindle Fires. I figure it should work for Apple (I think I've set an Apple account up with one but cannot remember for sure.)

For instance
Visa
4111 1111 1111 1111
Expiration Date must be a valid date in the future

Fingers crossed that this will work for you.
