Apple TV bought in Japan, used by American help

I just bought Apple TV in Tokyo Japan. But when I hooked it up I changed all the languages to English but a lot of the movies (and pretty much all of the movie titles) are in Japanese.  Is it because I bought it here? And can that be changed?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
It doesn't mater where you bought it. It depends on which store you are using as to which language the content uses.

    You cannot. No Japanese carrier offers unlocking. You'll need to sell the phone and buy one you can actually use outside of Japan.

  • I purchased a television series and halfway through downloading, it stopped and iTunes told me that my computer is already associated with an apple ID, but I bought the show using my apple ID, the same one I'm using to try to download. Help?

    Okay, so I purchased the first season of American Horror Story, and began to download the season from the cloud. It started great, and I managed to download the first seven episodes, before having a message box pop up and say that my cloud session has been expired. Now, every time I click the little cloud button on the TV cover, or beside the episode titles, iTunes tells me "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID." But I bought the season using my own Apple ID, and it's telling me that my computer can use a Apple ID within 77 days. But I don't want to use another Apple ID, I want to use my own. I have no idea why this is happening and I would like to download and watch the items I have bought with my own money. Thank you for your help.

    Just to be clear - I just bought a new song and can't download it into the library because of this error message.

  • When my husband and I first bought our iPhones, I was the only one with an Apple ID (since he never used iTunes). He used my apple id to get apps. Now he has his own ID, but my account keeps popping up on his phone. How can we change the ID on his phone?

    When my husband and I first bought our iPhones, I was the only one with an Apple ID (since he never used iTunes). He used my apple id to get apps. Now he has his own ID, but my apple ID email address keeps popping up on his phone when he tries to download an app. We do not want to have all of the same apps on our phones. How can we change the ID on his phone? I already tried going to Settings>iTunes &App Store> and changing the Apple ID to his account email and that did not solve the problem. To make things worse, I recently changed my Apple ID email address (without getting a new ID) and I do not remember my old password (and this is the address that is popping up on his phone). He does not have any music on his phone and all of the Apps that he has are free.  Any help you could offer would be great (-:

    All apps are forever tied to the Apple ID that bought them. To stop your id from popping up, you need to delete the apps on his phone, and then repurchase them under his account.

  • If I bought more space on the iCloud under a old apple id but I am using a new one will that space be with my new id?

    I bought more space for my iPad 2  but I was logged in under a old apple id. I am using a new id. Will my iPad have the space when I back it up? Or can I change my new id to the space I just bought?
    Thanks!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Your iPad will only back up to the iCloud account it is logged into, you cannot transfer additional space purchased under one account to another.

  • I have a separate apple id and my daughter bought a song using my ID rather than hers.  Now I've got this song that I don't care for and have no use for.  Is there a way to get it to her ID short of burning it on to CD and then uploading it to her phone?

    I have a separate apple id and my daughter bought a song using my ID rather than hers. She was playing on my computer and bought it, thinking it would download to her phone through the cloud. Now I've got this song that I don't care for and have no use for.  Is there a way to get it to her ID short of burning it on to CD and then uploading it to her phone?

    sure pretty simple.  make a backup of your current settings
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US
    then restore device from old backup you need pics off of
    then import pics to computer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
    you may need to save pics to camera roll first
    then restore the new backup and sync pics back to phone via itunes
    Peace, Clyde

  • Using Apple TV bought in the U.S. in England

    Any issues using Apple TV bought in the U.S. in England ?

    I once plugged 240Volts UK power into a US 110V Xbox development kit.
    It went bang!
    But if your Apple TV is the same as my UK model. It says (on the grey rubber base) 110-240V
    So no problems with power.
    There should be no problems with the video output either. Analog TVs had NTSC and PAL - but HDMI is a digital standard. So your Apple TV should work fine.
    In the UK we don't have Movie Rentals yet. Or movies of any kind - but that's because we have UK iTunes accounts. A US account should still work.

    If you had already removed the device from 'Find My iPhone' in iCloud, then you jus tneed to powercycle the device in order to activate it.
    Source: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4515
    "After the device is removed from the previous owner’s account, turn the device off by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button located on the top-right side of the device. Then restart your device and proceed with device setup as you would normally."
    If it has not been removed, then the activation lock is still active.
    If the previous owner cannot remove the device from their account there is nothing you can do unless the place you purchased it from will give you a refund.
    Activation Lock: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5818
    What if I purchase a device that is still linked to the previous owner's account?
    Contact the previous owner as soon as possible and ask them to erase the device and remove it from their account. For complete instructions, read how to remove a device from a previous owner's account.
    How do I check for Activation Lock before purchasing a used device?
    When purchasing an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from someone other than Apple or an authorized Apple reseller, it is up to you to ensure that the device has been erased and is no longer linked to the previous owner’s account.
    Follow each of these steps to make sure that you can use the device you purchase:
    Turn the device on and slide to unlock.If the passcode lock screen or the home screen appears, the device has not been erased. Ask the seller to completely erase the device by going to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. Do not take ownership of any used iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch until it has been erased.
    Begin the device setup process.After choosing a language, choosing a country, and connecting to a network, the device will begin activation. If you are asked for the previous owner’s Apple ID and password, the device is still linked to their account. Hand the device back to the seller and ask them to enter their password. If the previous owner is not present, they can remove the device from their account by signing in to icloud.com/find. Do not take ownership of any used iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch until it has been removed from the previous owner’s account.
    You will know that a device is ready for you to use when you are asked to “Set up your iPhone", “Set up your iPad", or “Set up your iPod” during the device setup process.

  • I bought an Apple gift card, I can use it on itunes?

    I bought an Apple gift card, I can use it on itunes?

    Sorry, but no. I had a quick look at the "Buy Apple Gift card" page at the online Apple Store, and found this in the fine print:
    Note: Apple Gift Cards cannot be redeemed at the iTunes Music Store. Purchase an iTunes Music Card instead. Apple reserves the right to change at any time the products you can purchase with gift cards and to limit the use of gift cards in its discretion. See the Gift Card Terms and Conditions, below.

  • I bought an unlocked iphone 5 with 32mb especially so I could use any wireless carrier that I wanted to.  Why does apple hold me prisoner to use only the carriers that apple wants?????  The only thing I can't do is send and receive picture messaging.

    I specifically bought and paid for an unlocked iphone 5 from APPLE so that I could use any wireless carrier I wanted to.  I have been paying ATT WAYYY too much money the last 20 years.  But for some reason APPLE wants to keep me from using any wireless carrier - and I can only use the carriers that APPLE will let me.  WHY????  I paid my money!!  I expected a lot more than I got.  The only thing I can't do is send or received picture messages, but it makes me so Mad that I can';t do that!!!

    If you bought an unlocked iPhone then it will work with any carrier but will work only under the restrictions or requirements the carrier sets for its customers.  Apple has nothing to do with that.  You are describing a problem of restricted access created by the carrer.  If you cannot carry out the functions you want, talk to the carrier and see what limits they are placing on you.  An unlocked iPhone is fully capable of all functions the carrer allows.

    I don't know of there is anyone than can fix this age old Apple problem.   Does anyone know how to retrieve apps under an old Apple ID when the email used for that account no longer exists &amp; I can't remember the password? After speaking with Apple Acct. Security, I got the security Q right but my birthday was wrong! They wanted the serial number from my phone that was 3 iPhones ago! Seriously??!!
    Any updated way to work around this? No Apple people can correct it.
    Thanks,

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.

  • Apple id has not been used with the itunes store-please review your account information

    Hello,
    Good Day.
    I bought apple ipad 2 and need help.
    I registered online and after this i am getting the error.
    apple id has not been used with the itunes store-please review your account information
    Can any one help me in this issue.
    Thanks&Regards,
    Shankar.M

    This is information you you have created an apple id.
    To use this apple id for the itunes store, you have to agree to the terms and conditions and enter in the requested information before you can use the store.
    When you create an apple id it does not mean you gain access to all apples features, you would need to create a :-
    Itunes id
    Facetime id
    Game centre id
    imessage id
    icloud id
    You can use the same email address as each login. but until you agree to each terms and conditions you wont be able to access the services.
    This is usually done the first time you access each service and sign in with your apple id.
    As to iTunes you need a little extra as they will request to confirm details as to address, etc, with the payment information they can confirm you are actually in that country you are trying to purchase from.
    Once you have added the credit card details, you can go back in a set payment method to none and remove the credit card details once you have activated the itunes on your apple id.
    Basically this message you are getting is just ADDING the feature of iTunes store to your apple id, and confirms you have not got a iTunes id yet.
