Why are certain albums like ones from Tool or Ozzy era black sabbath not available in the U.S. store

why are certain albums like ones from Tool or Ozzy era black sabbath not available in the U.S. store

Also, in some cases the artist will not allow download sales, or insists on a download store selling complete albums only rather than offering individual tracks, something Apple resists. In any case, it's not by Apple's choice; it's by decision of the content owners.

  • On i-pad, when try to enable itunes match, it says, "you are not currently subscribed to iTunes Match. Use iTunes on your computer to subscribe." I am subscribed though! Then it says no my request and item not available in the U.S. store. WWJD?

    On i-pad, when I try to enable itunes match, it says, "you are not currently subscribed to iTunes Match. Use iTunes on your computer to subscribe." I am subscribed though! Then it says no to my request and, "item not available in the U.S. store." My Mac will not use update iTunes to any later version than the one I have because my os is also out of date, but when I try to update that i cant, so what do I have to do?  Please don't tell me I have to buy a new Mac to be up to date.

    On the iOS device you must be logged into the store with the exact same Apple ID you used to originally purchase the service. Go to Setting > iTunes & App Stores and if necessary sign out/in and then enable iTM.

  • Why is iDVD not available in the apple app store?

    hi there!
    i wonder why iDVD is not available in the App-Store.
    are the functions from iDVD part of Final Cut Pro - or is there a other official program for creating DVDs out of iMovie films?
    hope to find an answer here,
    greetings
    david

    Apple has stopped development and support of iDVD and iWeb. They are currently only available via the boxed iLife 11 disk from Amazon.com: iLife 11 or maybe eBay.com.

  • Why is the google plus app not available in the pakistani app store?

    Ive been waiting for the Google+ app for a month and finally when it arrives its not availeble in the Pakistani app store. Why? the rest of the world is happily using it. When it will be available? is there a way to get it from the US app store? can someone gift the app to me.

    "Why? "
    You would have to ask Google.  Probably government restirctions.
    "When it will be available? "
    You would have to ask Google and/or your government.
    " is there a way to get it from the US app store?"
    You could physically move to the U.S. apply for and recieve a U.S credit card billed to your new U.S address, then you could use the U.S app store as long as you were inside the birders of the U.S.
    "can someone gift the app to me."
    No.

  • I am trying to purchase an item from iTunes United Kingdom store.  It is a television special; Downton Abbey Christmas special.  Not available in the US iTunes stores.  Is there a way to do this?

    I am trying to purchase an item from iTunes United Kingdom store.  It is a Masterpiece classic; Downton Abbey Christmas Special not available in the US.  Is there a way to do this?

    You can ONLY buy from the itunes store of your country of residence ( based on the valid billing address on your credit card) AND ONLY while you are physically located inside the borders of that country.

  • Why is the movie "How to train your dragon" not available in the US itunes store?

    I am about to travel out of the USA for a extended period of time, and what I can pack is limited. I felt it would be a better choice to buy a digital version of my favorite movie "How to train your dragon" which when I search for it on the web I can find it (https://ssl.apple.com/itunes/charts/movies/how-to-train-your-dragon/). But when I go to open it up or search for the movie in itunes... it does not exist. In fact, it says as part of the error that it doesn't exist in the USA store.
    This confuses me because it was produced by a USA company and you can get the movie in Blueray and normal DVD at any store in the USA, yet iTunes seems to have blocked all sales of it.
    So I would just like to know why it is currently unavailable, and when I can hope to be able to purchase it. Thank you.
    -Concerned customer

    Except it was on itunes, otherwise that link wouldn't exist, and it wouldn't state that the movie was in the top ten retals. So the company had to have given the rights to sell to itunes before now, and since it is still showing up on the apple main site as being accessable, despite not exisiting in iTunes, the movie must have already been on itunes.
    I'm not "waiting" for the initial release of this movie and being impatient, I'm frustrated because apple says its available but iTunes says it isn't. I just want the movie in a digital form. Thats all I'm asking.
    I'm asking here because there is no way I have found to get my question into the fortknox that is the Apple/itunes customer service.

  • HT1495 I need to add an app to my Japan iPhone from iTunes Japan, since it is not available in the US iTunes store. How do I do this.

    I am in Japan. My iTunes is a US account. I need to add an app to my Japan based iPhone.  It is not available in US iTunes. Do I need another iTunes account in Japan?

    You can only purchase from the country in which you live. You cannot purchase from the Japan Store if you live in the U.S. and your iTunes account is a U.S. based account.

  • Why is Spotify not available on the Nigerian apple store?

    I used an android phone before now, there was an app called Spotify that I love and use all the time.
    Now I am planning to switch to iphone 6 but because spotify is not available on it, I am having some doubts about using iphone.
    I use a Nigerian Apple store for your information.
    Please resolve this issue.

    Not all apps are available in all App Stores due to contract arrangements.  Since we are all fellow users on here we cannot speak for Apple's legal arrangements.

  • Why are certain CC apps missing from the list of those available to install within the CC desktop?

    Your system may not meet the system requirements to install some apps. Check the system requirements on the product download page for the app you're interested in. Visit the Download Center.

    So, they are all present in, say iMovie too?
    If so, I would suspect cache problems.

  • I live in Australia and I am trying to buy an album by SNSD but it is not available on the Australian iTunes. All of their other albums are. Why is this and is there a way I can buy it off the American store?

    I live in Australia and I am trying to buy an album by SNSD, a Kpop group. It is not available on the Australian iTunes. All of their other albums are.
    Why is this and is there a way I can buy it off the American store? (The album is called The Boys)

    Well how much does the album cost? Because I have an issue with this except I live in America and I wish to purchase something from the Australian store... perhaps I can gift you your album and you could gift me my album.

  • HT202020 Why are certain videos that I have taken with my iPhone 4 not supported by Aperture.

    Why are certain videos that I have taken with my iPhone not supported by Aperture?  That's weird.  I expect that since both iPhone and Aperture are Apple products, file support should be seamless between the two. 
    Also, iPhone 4 does not appear as Camera Model in the metadata of the unsupported video file in Aperture .  But other videos I have taken with the same iPhone 4 appear in Aperture and the Camera Model appears correctly.  Why is that?

    Have you done some cleaning and cleared caches on your Mac? Maybe the  com.apple.xpchelper.cache file is missing. Check the folder /System/Library/Caches/
    Re: Import video to Aperture library on Mountain Lion https://discussions.apple.com/message/19304702#19304702
    If this file should be missing, you need to restore it from a backup or reinstall it by reinstalling your system.

  • Why are certains applications not available in South African App Store?

    Why are certain applications such as Google Earth, Google Mobile App, and most games not available in the South African App Store.
    We speak English so localisation should not be a problem.
    I'm sure there are no legal reasons why these applications are not available here, as we have desktop equivalents for most of them.
    Why does South Africa have to have a diminished iPhone experience?

    No idea.
    You would have to ask Apple and/or the company that makes the app and/or - most likely - the Government of your country.
    I'm sure Apple and the app developer would love to sell more apps.
    Since this is a user forum, made up of iphone users, like you - there is nothing we can do about it.
    Sorry.

  • Why are my podcasts being deleted from my iPhone every time I sync them?

    why are my podcasts being deleted from my iPhone every time I sync them?

    I also have this problem though it only seems to affect my iPod Nano (6th gen).  It does not seem to affect my iPhone (though now as I type this, I better confirm that as I haven't manually managed podcasts on my iPhone since the last iTunes updates).  I have iTunes set to "manually manage music and videos" (just like OP, I'd rather manage music and videos myself rather than construct playlists and have iTunes sync them), and under the "Podcasts" tab on my nano, I do not have "Sync Podcasts" checked.
    Is this something that has occurred since the last iTunes update?
