How do I purchase music from another country?

How do I purchase music from another country?
For example I'm from Canada and I wanted to purchase music only available from itunes in England.
itunes will not let me buy music only available in other countries.
Is there a way around this? can I change my profile somehow?
I really wanted to get the Nicola Roberts album.
Thank you

This is not possible...

  • How do i purchase music from a country other than the one i'm in

    i live in the usa and i want to purchase music form the greese itunes store. I don't have a credit card registered in greece. Is it possible to purchase and download from a different country? How do I do it? or how do i contact apple to ask this specific question/
    thanks

    This question is asked frequently so I'll just quote the most succinct answer (courtesy of Dave Sawyer) from the many given:
    In order to buy from any given country's iTunes Music Store, you must have either:
    a) a credit card with a billing address in that country, or
    b) a mailing address in that country and a gift certificate or a prepaid card that was bought in that country.
    If you cannot fulfill one of these two sets of conditions, you will not be able to purchase from any given country's iTMS.
    .......this is due to restrictions placed on Apple by the record companies and other rights holders (who are often completely different from country to country and so all require their own individual negotiations and contracts), not by Apple's choice. And this also applies to all the legal download stores that carry major-label content, not just the iTMS.

  • Can I purchase music from another country?

    I want to purchase the track "Empires" by a British artist named Lamya.  She passed away and it is a very good song.  I can see that the song is for sale on the US iTunes site but it says I cannot purchase it because I am in Canada. How can I access it?  I don't understand why there is a restriction for this.  If I went to the UK and bought the CD there, I could bring it back to Canada and it wouldn't be a problem.  If I bring my laptop to the US and purchased it while in the US, would I be able to keep it on my laptop, iphone when I returned to Canada? 

    You can't - the Terms of Use of the stores state that you can only buy from the country that you are in (e.g. due to licensing/distribution terms etc)

  • Purchasing Music from another Country Store

    Hi,
    I dislike the fact that I can't get music from other store than the one from my country. As an example, on the USA store, there is much more albums from internationnal artists than on the Canadian store. That's a bit annoying. Some older albums that I can preview, but I can't buy.
    Thanks.

    Just go to the store's website and buy tracks the normal way. Almost all online music download stores will sell you music no matter where you live. The only exceptions are the stores that sell major label music, e.g. the iTunes Store and Amazon, which restrict by country of residence.
    If I got into it would it allow me to purchase music and will it play in the US.
    Make sure the music you are buying is in MP3 format. MP3 is a universal format and plays the same anywhere.

  • How to transfer purchased music from iTunes

    Can anyone tell me how to transfer purchased music from iTunes to my iPod without first downloading to a CD?

    If you are using the latest version of iTunes (4.6), then you need to make sure your ipod software is up to date also.
    When you have done this, authorize your music in iTunes by playing a few seconds of it, and it should transfer by whatever synching method you choose.
    Get the latest updates here.
    If you have done all this and still can't transfer it, post back with more info about what is happening.
    EDIT.
    Grrrr......must learn to type faster!

  • Topic: How to transfer purchased music from iTunes

    Since the item <Topic: How to transfer purchased music from iTunes> is "locked" (whatever that means - typically, I got an error message when I clicked on the link!!) - I would like to state that despite downloading the iPod updater to deal with this problem, I cannot update my iPod because "the updater does not have a firmware image". I deeply resent not being able to move 100 tracks I have bought and paid for with my hard-earned money to my iPod. I trust that Apple will sort out this mess forthwith.

    I have now solved this problem (almost by accident...).
    Unfortunately, before you can update the iPod software on the older iPods you have to first do a Restore Factory Settings from the iPod updater (otherwise "updater cannot find firmware image'). Let the 'Restore' process run right through (it ends when the iPod fully reboots). You can then run the iPod software updater to Update from iPod 2.2 to 2.3 software, but afterwards you have to recopy all your songs from iTunes into the now empty iPod. I reloaded my iPod last night, and it took about 20-30mins using firewire for c.2400 songs. It worked for me, anyway. And the interface with iTunes is an improvement. Could have done without all the wailing and gnashing of teeth, though. Thank you, Apple.

  • How can I download music from another computer's music library to my Ipod without losing my own music?

    How can I download music from another computer's music library to my ipod without losing my own music?

    You'll want to enable Manually Manage Music and Videos. Once you do that you'll be able to drag and drop the music from the computer to the iPod.

  • Getting Music from Another Country

    Im a big fan of japanese rock and other music but it wont let me purchase music under the japanese music store. Can anyone tell me how to do this or if it is possible.

    Expanding a bit, in order to buy from another country's iTunes Music Store, you must have either:
    a) a credit card with a billing address in that country, or
    b) a mailing address in that country and a gift certificate or a prepaid card that was bought in that country.
    If you cannot fulfill one of these two sets of conditions, you will not be able to purchase from any given country's iTMS.
    This, BTW, is due to restrictions placed on Apple by the record companies and other rights holders (who are often completely different from country to country and so all require their own individual negotiations and contracts), not by Apple's choice.

  • How to view purchased music on another computer

    I am trying to login to my iTunes account on a computer other than the one I usually use and listen to my purchased music. Supposedly, I am authorized to play purchased music on 5 machines simultaneously. however, I cannot view or find my purchased music when I logon to the second machine. Only the purchased music from the normal iTunes user on the second machine shows up. Is there a way to accomplish what I am trying?

    Charles, we often see posts here from folks who mistakenly think that their iTunes library is on a central server somewhere, and that they can log in from anywhere and see it. It is not. Your iTunes library is right there on your PC.
    If you want to see (or listen to) your songs on another PC, you have to copy the song files from your PC onto the other PC, perhaps using a flash (USB) drive, and add them to the iTunes library on the second machine. If any of the songs are protected, you will need to authorize that computer to your account.
