How do I switch from the uk store to the Canada store? On my iPhone it won't let me download apps or update without switching. Any ideas? Thank you!
Contact iTunes. You need a valid payment method and the messages says you do not have that.

It could be Mountain Lion. Developers have had access to Mountain Lion beta builds for many months, so it seems like they would have worked out the bugs before release, especially a major bug that causes the app to crash. Make sure you are installing the latest version downloaded from the developer's web site, not a version that came with your Kobo device.
Sometimes, an app's preference file gets corrupted and the app crashes when it tries to read its preference file at launch. So you can try deleting its preference file, so that the app can create a new one.
In Finder, from the menu bar, select Go -> Go to Folder. Type
/Users/<your user home folder name>/Library
replacing <your user home folder name>.
This will take you do your user account Library folder. Go into the Preferences folder, and find the preference file for the Kobo app. Its name will probabaly start with "kobo" or "com.kobo" or otherwise have "kobo" as part of the name, and end in ".plist". Drag this file to the Desktop (so that it's no longer in the Preferences folder); don't trash it because if this is not the problem, you can put it back later.
Then, try running the Kobo app again. -
I just recently purchased 3 songs from itunes not knowing that I had no money on my debit card (visa) left. My iphone wont let me update my apps and says that there was a billing problem with my last purchase. I dont know what I am supposed to do! I dont understand why it worked in the first place when it wasn't supposed to!
There seems to be a billing problem with the iTS. I've been trying to make purchases today (Dec 9th) too and it reports either the iTS can not process payments or it says my card was declined. I even changed the payment method to Paypal (which is never declined) and still no go.
I don't think it is "you" but a problem at Apple. Some popular new apps were released recently like Logic Pro and perhaps they're getting bombarded as they did when Lion was released.
Wait a few hours and then try again. -
HT1918 when i tap itunes store on my iphone, how do i get to my account settings
When I tap itunes store on my iphone, how do i get to my account settings?
At the bottom of, for example, the Music tab in the iTunes app you should see your id. If you tap on that you should get a pop-up, with one option being View Apple ID - tap on that and you should be taken to your account details.

My iphone wont let me download bbm because it claims ive already got it on apple app store , but the app will not show on home screen nor on settings
No, iTunes never says an iPhone is not authorized.
This is occurring on a computer, correct?
Is the computer authorized for the account the media or apps were acquired with? -

The App store is a iOS function and cannot be deleted. Try checking other home screens/folders and see if you can locate it. If not, go into Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.

What should I do when I try to sync my iPhone 4s with a MacBook and get the error message: "iPhone cannot be synced...required disk cannot be found?"
Close "iPhoto" if it is open. Open the "Pictures" folder and right-click on "iPhoto Library." Select "Show Package Contents." Right-click the "iPod Photo Cache" folder, select "Move to Trash" and sync your iPhone. The error message should no longer appear.
if that doesn't work,
uninstall itunes and download the lastest version -

I need help with resetting my ichat. When i try to login now it wont let me... it says "AOL Instant Messenger password" and then "iChat can't log in to ... because your login ID or password is incorrect. How do I reset this if I cant log in? When I try to press online the same thing pops up and I have no way of logging in or asking for help.
Hi,
iChat (it would help to know which version) can accept Apple IDs as valid AIM Screen Names.
However if you have iChat 5 or earlier you cannot use ones ending in @me.com or @icloud.com issued by iCloud. (they can be used in iChat 6 or Messages as these versions make a double login to AIM and Apple to allow the use of the password).
In addition if you are using an Apple ID for an AIM Screen Name the password still needs to keep to the 16 character limit that AIM has.
AN @mac.com name can be used on any version of iChat (Until the 30th June 2014)
As it does not need a double check with Apple you can use it to log in to the AIM Web pages
Login here with an AIM Name registered at AIM or and @mac.com name and see if you get any suspended account messages.
Sometimes account can be suspended. Usually because something has triggered the "Unusual Activity" item.
About a year ago many @mac.com users that travelled out of their own country found themselves suspended when they got home.
If the Name checks out of if an Apple ID the password in known to be 16 characters or Less then do this:-
In Lion upwards open a Finder Window and use the Go Menu whilst holding down the ALT key.
Select the Library that appears in the menu list.
Navigate to Preferences.
(If you have version earlier than Lion the just navigate to ~/Library/Preferences (that's the Library in you Home - Little House icon - folder)
Fnd com.apple.ichat.aim.plist (even if you are using Messages)
Drag the file to the Trash and Restart the app.

iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
Power up
Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.
