Can my family in Australia buy music for me?

I live in the UK, with a UK passport, payment card and address.
I have family on a working VISA in Australia. They have an Australian card and current address but they are UK nationals.
There is some music I'd like on the Australian iTunes. If she was to buy the songs, could she send them to me on disk which I could then put
Into my library?

but they are UK nationals.
The legal notice on the iTunes Australia Store states:
"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."
There is not a citizenship requirement, so the fact that they are UK nationals is not relevant.
I think you can figure out the rest.

Trying to buy music for de-stressing and getting disastrous results

Hello to someone who can help,
I have been trying to access the iTunes store for quite some time now and I have been met with the screen opening the store and then having this white, blank screen greet me and take over the iTunes store screen and not be able to get any music for buying (even when I use the search bar). I was wondering if anyone had a brilliant theory and solution to this crisis (as all of mine are completely prepoterous). Thank you

Yes, because you only tried one online music store and then you got all stressed when you encountered a problem.
To de-stress yourself, buy some tracks at another online music download store, such as Amazon.com.
You can buy MP3s from any online source and add them to your iTunes library.

How should I give itunes autonomy to my children now that they are in high school and have used my Mac and my itunes account to buy music for years, including all gift cards given to them. They now both have their own computers.

When my children were younger, and needed more help and oversight, I had them purchase songs with my permission, often with gift cards that they had been given on various occaisions. Now, however, they both have laptops, they would like to split out "their" music and books, sync their Itouches to their own system, and I would love to have 9000 less Taylor Swift songs stored on my hard drive. Also, it seems that I can't set up independent Itunes accounts for them without a credit card, however they both get gift cards several times a year. A suggestion for this? It must happen to a lot of families. Thanks.

Unfortunately you cannot split (nor merge) items purchased with an AppleID. I am not clear on what you will have to do to allow them continued access to their music on your account. Apple no longer has DRM protection in its music but then I also hear people have all kinds of authorization issues when trying to synch so it sounds like they still keep restrictions on what you can do with the music when trying to move it about. I'll let somebody more experienced with syncing answer this part. You may have to authorize their computers and devices to your AppleID to allow them all functionality with the music.
Ideally you would have set them up with their own AppleIDs years ago but...

Can my family use 'find my iphone' for each other if we each have separate apple ids? recently had to create separate ones b/c we were getting each others texts/facetimes and i read this happens when you share an apple id.

Can my family still use the 'find my iphone' app from our iphones / ipod touch to locate each others phone if we have separate apple ids? We were sharing a single apple id but recently we started getting each others texts/facetimes .. I read that this happens when you share an apple id. Will we just have to sign in with the others' apple id to locate their phone ?

Use Find My Friends app instead. Much easier to manage, and you won't need each other's id/pw's to do it. They only need to accept your invitations and vice versa.

How can I change my security questions? I don't even know the email it keeps sending it too I just want to buy music for my iTunes

I need to change my security questions and I don't know the email that it keeps saying the directions for it keeps sending it too.

You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

HT2534 Can my family use my iTunes music, yet have separate accounts?

So here it is. I've got my family. We all have apple devices, each has an iPad, iPhone and then two computers. Family of 4. My wife has her account and my daughter shares that. My son is on my account. But I want to change that after my son spent $15,000 on in app purchases. I'm not a computer savvy guy. Now I'm getting the crash course lesson on the prenatal controls. FYI all parents, don't think it can't happen to you, use the parental controls. Is possible to have an account for my son, but he can still have access to music I've purchased over the years thur iTunes? And then if I have different accounts, can I use the same computer to support the devices?

Use Find My Friends app instead. Much easier to manage, and you won't need each other's id/pw's to do it. They only need to accept your invitations and vice versa.

Buying Music for Other Users

My husband will be out of the country over the next year and I would like to purchase songs for him to surprise him while he's gone. How do I send my purchases to his iTunes?

Hello, SG, and welcome to the Discussions.

Purchases of music can be easily transferred from one iTunes library to another, so you can buy tracks via your iTunes Store account and then get them into your husband's iTunes library. How you can do this will depend on your setup and situation. Is he using a separate computer and going to be taking that with him, so you want to load the tracks onto it before he leaves? If that is the case, take a look here:
iTunes for Windows: How to copy purchases between computers
Once you have the tracks on some removable medium, you can mount that on his computer and then just drag the content to the iTunes window. Make sure that the option to "copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library" is set in the iTunes -> Advanced preferences before you do.
If you don't have access to his computer, you can gift the tracks to him and he can download them himself using his own iTunes Store account:

If neither option covers the situation, please post back and let us know and I'm sure someone can help further.

HT1879 Buy music for commercial use.

I have a question. If I buy a music (0.99€) I can use it to commercial videos, for example I want to make a video with 3 minutes and I want to show my film to others.
Thanks

No, you cannot. Tracks from the iTunes Store are sold for your personal use only:
USAGE RULES
You shall be authorised to use iTunes Products only for personal, noncommercial use.
Nor could you use any tracks, even from a CD, for commercial purposes without a license from the record company or whoever else holds the rights to the track. I'd suggest that unless you really, really want to use a commercially-released track and are prepared to pay handsomely for the privilege, you obtain your music from one of the several companies that sell royalty-free tracks.
Regards.

Old computer died, need to get my music from my ipod touch to my pc, how can I do this without losing music for free!?

I have an Ipod touch with about 900 songs on it, i used to connect with my old pc until it recently broke. i have just bought a new pc and was wondering how i could get my music from my ipod to my new computer! the only thing i need is music , no videos or anything. does anyone know how i can do this for free? not very good with computers by the way!

- Transfer iTunes purchases by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
- Transfer other music by using a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
Copy music
- If you have synced photos and some other items you will need a paid program like TouchCopy or PhoneView. They also do music.
- Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backyp by right clicking on the iPod uder Devices in iTunes and select Backup
- Then restore the iPod from that backup.

Can't Sign In to Buy Music

I can browse the store and preview listening to music but when I try to "Buy" or "Sign In" I get the following message: "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. Make sure your network connection is active and try again." I have "run diagnostics" and all is well. I have not had any problems in the past. Apple has sent me a boat load of documentation of things to try to no avail, any ideas?

Same problem. I enter my password correctly, and I can't get in. but I can get into Apple Support and other login pages with the same (correct) password. Arg!

Buy Music for MP3 players

Dear Sirs
I'm a diehard Mac customer (have 3 macs at home plus 1 ipod and a shuffle) I have successfully converted my husband to macs little my little, unfortunately I had to give up with the MP3 player since he needed the radio, player and recorder features without having to add pieces. So I got him an iriver player but insisted that he bought his music from itunes. I just now realized that itunes does not allow him to convert his music to MP3 therefore he cannot put his music into his brand new iRiver. Why this policy?
So, if I have an MP3 player I should find another music store?
ibook Mac OS X (10.4.2)

Conversion of purchased iTMS tracks can be done easily be burning those tracks to an AudioCD & reimporting the resulting AudioCD to mp3 files.

HT1937 i cant understand ....insert the sim card without no pin lock what is it mean ???? can i use the new buy sim for activating the iphone 3g??

my phone is constantly giving me message use the sim with no pin to activate ....any bypass any method to activate the iphone 3g i m worrid so much plzzz help me friends i m w8ing ...i m frm pakistan cani use the my country`s local carriers sim which is not activated yet

The PIN and PUK codes are usually found on the card that the SIM came attached to. In any case you need a SIM that has not been locked with a PIN in order to activate the phone. So you need to contact the carrier. It is not an iPhone issue.

How can I buy music again?

I had a problem with my iPod and had to have it restored at an Apple store. Now if I try to by a song from iTunes on the iPod I get this message: A valid address is necessary to purchase using store credit.
I have synched the iPod while signed into the store in iTunes but that didn't fix the problem.
How can I fix this to buy music from the iPod?
Thanks.

Well, it turned out the problems was with my address. Apparently after four years of having an account for my iPods, Apple decided that a PO Box was not a valid address. They must have done this quite recently. When I did an experiment of adding my street address the problem cleared up, even though the post office won't deliver mail to a street address in my small Rocky Mountain town of 287 people. Of course they never told me that they changed their address policy other than through the cryptic message.
Thanks for the help.

How can we buy music off your website

were having trouble picking out songs off your website can you help us(trouble buying music)

Woman,
The iTunes Store is not a website. You can only purchase songs through the iTunes application. If the application is not already on your computer, download it here.
