Australian itunes store

OK so maybe I am missing something here but for the life of me I can not purchase any music from any store. It asks for my country that my credit card belongs to but does not list Australia. Any one got any insight as to what if anything I am doing wrong is it it that if you live in Australia you can not purchase any music from itunes.

I know... this soooooooo bugs me too.
considering all the iTunes users and iPod owners in Australia im sure they could come to an agreement. Stupid SONY.
Bigpond music is OK, but i downloaded a song the other day off them, and i couldn't import it into iTunes because it was protected. I had to burn it to CD, then import it into iTunes off the CD.
The Day i see the Australian FLAG in the 'choose country' option will be a joyful one. It Doesn't bother me in the slightest that i need to use a CC to pay for them, i just wish we could.

  • Why is no season pass available for Big Bang Theory Season 6 in the Australian iTunes Store?

    Season 6 of The Big Bang Theory is now showing in the Australian iTunes Store. So far only one episode is available.
    Where the "Buy Season Pass" button usually is, it instead says, "Partial Season". I can't see any option to buy a season pass.
    Why is this? What does "partial season" mean? If I buy the one episode available, will I later get the option to "Complete" my season? Will the full season eventually be available?
    Thanks anyone for any light you can shed on this.         

    You would have to ask whomever holds the U.K. distribution rights to the show.

  • Cannot purchase from the Australian iTunes Store while working overseas

    I'm an Australian currently working in Papua New Guinea. I tried to make a purchase on the iTunes Store (Windows) and it keeps asking me to verify my credit card Security Code which I did but it tells me "For assistance, please contact iTunes Support". Upon contacting Apple Support, I was told that I have violated the iTunes Store Terms and Conditions and was asked to read http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/us/sales.html. The two Apple Support representatives I have spoken with refused to tell me what part of the Terms and Conditions I have violated and basically told me to get lost in a polite way.
    Now, I find this unacceptable. Firstly, if Apple thinks I have done something wrong then it is Apple's responsibility to tell me what I have done wrong. Secondly, I find it unacceptable that as an Australian, I'm restricted from making purchases from the Australian iTunes Store even that I have a valid Australian billing address, a valid credit card that is issued from Australia.
    Is someone in the community able to clarify this?

    I can tell you:
    "The iTunes Service is available to you only in Australia, its territories, and possessions. You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Service from outside these locations. Apple may use technologies to verify your compliance."

  • Why is the documentary series Bomb Patrol Afghanistan not available from the Australian iTunes store?

    Why is the documentary series Bomb Patrol Afghanistan not available from the Australian iTunes store?

    Because it is the producer's decision where they want their items to be available. You can request for it if you want to.

  • I want to change from the US iTunes store to the Australian iTunes store but I have to spend all of my iTunes store credit, what the **** can I buy with 60 cents?

    I want to change from the US iTunes store to the Australian iTunes store but i have to spend all of my iTunes credit first, what the **** will I spend 60 cents on?  Should I have purchased unwanted music to the exact value to change country?  Why cant I just agree to wipe the credit? it's less than one dollar.  Why can't I just transfer it at going market rates (or even cent for cent) when it is only such a small amount and I would make a profit?  I don't want to start another iTunes account, it will only lead to problems with what I have already purchased.

    You cannot.
    You cannot use another countrys itunes store.
    You must be physically locates inside the borders of a country to use that countrys itunes store and a credit card issued in that country with a valid billing address in that country.
    The owners of the distribution rights of movies/music/etc differ by country.  These distributors decide who can sell their content in that country.
    Buy from another source if your countrys itunes store does not carry somehting that you want.

  • I'd like to buy a song from the Australian iTunes store but when I try to purchase, it says I am only authorized to but from the US iTunes Store. Any suggestions? Thanks!

    You could check to see if there are any other stores that you can buy the song from. How about the artist's website? I've bought a couple of MP3s and even CDs from Australian artist's websites.

  • This apple id is only valid for purchases in the australian itunes store. I'M BRITISH!

    PLEASE READ
    So my mum just bought a phone today, she's not really a techy person so she bought a cheap iPhone 3GS and she asked me to set it up for her.
    I made a new email address for her and made an Apple ID for her. I just verified the email for her with Apple and it opened my iTunes and a message popped up and it said "This apple id is only valid for purchases in the australian itunes store. You will be switched to that store".
    I don't know why this has happened, i've used mine for my iPhone for ages and that's had no problems.
    We live in the UK and we always have, so why's it saying this?
    Any help please?
    Thank you.

    WOW, OK. I just changed my country to UK. And now i'm entering my mums bank stuff, and the address already there is someone in australia. Earlier on it said that my mums email (that i made 10 mins before) already exists. So i reset the password. So how can there be 2 email addresses that are the same? I'm lost!
    I'm just gonna make a whole new email with a whole new apple id! No more hotmail for me.

  • Insane Prices at Australian iTunes Store

    Why is it that the Australians (and I'm sure many of the other international iTunes Store locations too) get absolutely shafted on the prices of some releases?
    Let's look at my favourite artist Beck and his latest album The Information. The physical CD release comes with a bonus DVD with videos for every song and costs no more than a standard album. In the US iTunes store you can buy the The Information (Bonus Video Version) for US$11.99. That's about two dollars more than a standard iTunes album but still good value considering you get the videos and it's cheaper than buying the CD. Now if we look at the The Information in the Australian iTunes store it costs AUS$35.99. That's AUS$19 more than the standard album price of AUS$16.99. $19 dollars for some videos that are free for the physical release? Plus you don't even get the song or the video for the Australian bonus track 'Inside Out'.
    Now let's move on to one of my favourite labels DFA records who release a lot of vinyl only singles. Due to this, digital downloads from the iTunes Store are the only legal way for non vinyl heads to access their music. Unfortunately the pricing in the Australian iTunes music store puts this music way out of most peoples reach. Let's look at one of their big singles this year 'Wrong Galaxy'/'Triumph' by **** Robot. In the US iTunes store you can buy this single for only US$2.49. This is fantastic value for this two awesome tracks. However, in the Australian store you have to plonk down AUS$17.99 for the same release!
    These are just a few examples of the insane pricing that exists in the Australian iTunes Music store. Come on Apple, the Australian dollar isn't THAT bad!

    Prices on the iTMS are in almost all cases set by the record companies, not by Apple.
    You can try sending a message to the iTMS through the form at the bottom of this web page, just in case it's a pricing error. But it may indeed be correct and forced on Apple by the record company.

  • Australian iTunes store missing MORE categories under pocasts

    As I podcaster I am concerned about the latest development in the iTunes Australia store (this does not affect the US store).
    Here is a scenario.
    When searching for PODCASTS in the iTunes store and I click on the Religion and Spirituality category, what I should see is an option box on the left side called "More Religion and Spirituality" with options of Buddhism, Hinduism, Spirituality etc.
    This box has completely disappeared from the Australian iTunes store site meaning the customers can fail to browse for more specific podcast content that interests them.
    As a podcaster with content in the 'Spirituality' section, I am concerned that this whole category of content is now being 'filtered out' or 'censored' by the Australian iTunes store.
    This may be an oversight, if it is, it would be appreciated if this could be repaired ASAP.

    Go to settings, general, itune store. Make sure that the location for the itune store is the United States. It might be set to another country such as Canada in which case the problem you are describing could occur.

  • Why hasn't or when is the australian itunes store going to sell movies?

    i want to know because the american store has them.

    Since we are simply fellow users like you, no one on these boards would have that information. If & when movies become available outside the US store is strictly up to the major motion picture studios, not Apple.

  • I want to buy a movie from the america itunes store. How do I, since I am Australian?

    I want to buy Bruce Almighty from the american itunes store because the Australian itunes store doesn't have it. I really want it but I don't know how to buy it as I have tryed to login but a sign pops up saying that my account is only for the Australian itunes store.
    How do I buy it?
    Can I buy it?
    Please help me.

    You can ONLY buy from the itunes store of your country of residence (verified by your billing address of your credit card) AND ONLY while inside the borders of that country.

  • I need to change from Japan App Store to Australia App Store. I get this every time I try using My MacID: "This Apple ID is only valid for purchases in the Japanese iTunes Store. You will be switched to that Store." What next TY. JohnCahill

    I moved from Japan to Australia. I need to change from Japan App Store to the Australian App Store. I get the following message every time I try using My MacID which was set up in Japan: "This Apple ID is only valid for purchases in the Japanese iTunes Store. You will be switched to that Store." At one point... by which path I do not remember... I was instructed to created a new ID. I fill out the new ID forms, but the address is rejected each time... quite confusing. Does it want a new name? But it says I cannot use an apple domain (tag?) even though I guess it has to be an apple address... ? So I have iTunes crdit cards purchansed in Australia, can't spend in AUstralian iTunes Store, get directed back to Japan each time, and can't open a new ID... What am I doing wrong? Thank you in advance.  John. Australia.

    You must have a separate Apple ID registered in the other store along with a valid bank-issued charge card in the other country, and a legal billing address in the other country.
    Sorry... But... You cannot use other countries itunes stores.
    You must be within the Country with a Valid Billing Address and Credit Card for that Country to use the iTunes Store of that Country..

  • How do I purchase from a different iTunes store with the same Apple ID ?

    I'm registered with the Australian iTunes store but the song I want is available only on the Norwegian iTunes store.
    Clicking the iTunes track link from the artist's website prompts me to change to the Norwegian store, but after I do that and try to download the song it tells me that the logon details are valid only for the Australian store and invites me to register for the Norwegian one.
    So, I go through the registration process for the Norwegian store only to be advised by iTunes at the last minute that "The email address you entered is already being used for an Apple Account. If it is yours, you can cancel and Sign In using that Apple Account", which of course contradicts what it told me earlier.
    iTunes tests my patience at the best of times, but this seems to be deliberately and unnecessarily complex - I have an Apple ID and they have already got my payment details so what is the problem ?

    This is crazy. So instead of the artist getting my 12.00Kr payment for the track, the only choice I have is to acquire it by unofficial means - it's not released here and probably never will be.
    Thanks for the replies.
