Can't create iTunes account or change country of iTunes store

Hello,
I hope this is the correct place to post this question.
I am set up my iTunes account, and the problem I'm running into has to do with the 'country' setting.
Going through the account setup process, at the credit card information screen, I click the link in order to change countries. I select 'Canada', and click 'Change Country'. At this point I am sent back to the iTunes store main page, which is set to the United States.
If I scroll to the bottom of the main store page, and select 'Canada' to change the country setting manually, I get the error, "Could not complete the iTunes store request. The store may be busy. Check your internet connection or try again later."
I have checked my Norton Internet Security firewall settings. I have cleared the DNS cache. The iTunes store functions normally in other ways, i.e. I can play song previews.
If anyone can help me fix this problem it would be greatly appreciated!

    how can i create multiple accounts but use the same itunes?

    Hi iCloud is Making Me Go Crazy,
    You will need to create a new Apple ID for your GameCenter and iCloud services.  You can continue to use the current Apple ID you share with your Mom for access to iTunes Store purchases if you wish.

    In our country we dont have iTune Store if i create iTunes accounts in another country (example UK) can i use my local bank credit card??

    No, you need to be in a country and have a valid billing address in that country to be able to use a country's store. If there isn't an iTunes store in your country then unfortunately you won't be able to buy any content from iTunes.

    There is nothing that you can do to get rid of the balance on your own. Contact iTunes Store Support and seek their assistance. I believe that they can reset your balance for you.

    I do not believe that is possible any longer. All iTunes accounts are individual accounts.

  • HT2534 how can i create an account in itunes from Bangladesh ?

    how can i create an account in itunes from Bangladesh ?

    If you go to the artist's/group's page in the store then you should be able to do it e.g. search for the artist in the store, and on the right-hand side of the results page there should be list of content categories that match that search, and below it a link for the artist
    Click on the artist's name to go to a screen listing their items, and at the top right of that screen there should be a 'share' icon'
    Click on that and on the popup you should have an option for 'alert me' (I haven't used it but I assume that it works).
    You can see what alerts that you have, and remove them, by logging into your account via the Store > View Account menu option - on your account's screen there should be an Alerts link

  • How do I move my itunes account from one country to another?

    How do I move my itunes account from one country to another?  I set up my itunes account in the United States and now I live in England.  I would like to transfer my purchases from my US account to my British account and then download them onto my new ipod.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled Itunes and I have updated my Windows 7 operating system.  I have tried to get in touch with apple and the advisor said he could not help me.  Ideas? 

    Before you change the country, note the following:
    - you must use any remaining store credit on your account
    - download all purchased content
    - ensure you have no current rentals(if you do, you'll have to wait for them to expire)
    - provide a new payment(such as a credit or debit card) associated with a valid billing address in the UK or an iTunes Gift Card purchased in the UK
    - content purchased from the iTunes Store is country-specific. If you wish to upgrade any of your iTunes Store content to iTunes Plus, you'll need to do this before you change countries. The content you purchased while your account was set to the previous country will not be eligible for upgrade once you've changed countries.
    - after you change countries, you will no longer receive application update notifications in iTunes for the apps you purchased in your original country. However, you'll still receive update notifications on your iOS device for any applications installed on it. In addition, you'll be able to download previously purchased applications again for free if they are available on your new country's store. You will not be charged and the download will not appear on your Purchased page. If a previously purchased application is not available in your new country, you will not be able to download it again for free.
    - If you have an iTunes Match subscription, you can't change countries until the subscription has expired.
    - If you have purchased a Season Pass, you cannot change the country associated with your account until that season is done airing and the last episode of the season has been added to the iTunes Store.
    Taking the above into consideration, here's how to change your country:
    1. Open iTunes and click Sign In.
    2. Enter your iTunes Store account name and password, then click Account Info.
    3. On the Apple Account Information page, click Change Country or Region.
    4. Enter the updated information and save your changes.

  • I want Chang country in iTunes and use I tunes gift cards

    Hi
    I can't Chang my country to US to use iTunes Giftcards , I want cancel the visa cards

    Officially you can only have an Itunes account in the country of  your abode and that of your credit crard.
    Specifically you need and Address and Credit Card/other suitable payment method linked to the same address.
    You can  not therefore redeem US Dollar gift cards in another country. This is a long standing oversight as i think Apple should offer international Gift cards redeemable in any App/Itunes store.
    There are un authorised ways round this if you have a friend/relative in the US that might let you use their address  to set up a US account.

    Contact iTunes Support in the country's store where you have the credit and request that your account be zero balanced. Then you should be able to change the country of your account.

    It is the same for the app store. You are required to have some sort of payment method in the record.

  • How can someone create an account/register on my website?

    Hello!
    I'm somewhat new to Muse so I apologize if this question has already been asked.
    I wanted to create a link where someone can register/create an account on my page so that they will have the ability to have their own personal page when they log in. I would prefer to offer the option where they can either enter their own information, or login with facebook.
    How can I do this in Muse?

    To follow up on the Login behavior; it was done using Authpro.  The client did not want to change hosting just for this element.  I would like to see it added to Muse on a future release.  For most sites I continue to develop in DW, but find Muse quite handy for designing workable comps.  If Muse had a more robust selection of behaviors like non-BC client-side editing, login or non-BC contact forms I would be tempted to keep the Muse sites for more than comp use.  Heck, that would save time and increase revenue.  Of course nothing would be better than a clean roundtrip or export to DWCC.

  • Can't create computer account in Workgroup Manager

    Hi everybody !.
    I am installing a new Xserve with Mac OS X Server 10.5.6 and I am having some trouble with computer accounts in Workgroup Manager.
    I have a couple of PCs with Windows XP that I have added to the Windows domain created by Mac OS X Server with no problem,and they do appear in my computer account list, with the name PC_NameX$.
    My Xserve also appears in this list with the name ServerName.DomainName$
    But my iMacs (with Mac OS X 10.4.11) are not listed. When I try to create their accounts, I write their names and their MAC address but when I push the button "Save", Workgroup Manager says that I can't create this account because there is a computer with that name and that MAC address yet.
    I can't find a solution for this problem by myself. Could anybody give some advices to solve it ?.
    Many thanks.

    Hi Mabel,
    In my computer list appears my Windows computer names (followed by a "$" symbol, i.e., name$) and my Xserve name followed by domain name and a "$" symbol, i.e, name.domain$. Finally, there is a Guest account I added a few days ago (without "$" symbol).
    No iMac is listed here. When I try to add them manually, I write "Name", "Short Name" and "Ethernet ID" fields, and when I push "Save" button, I get this message:
    "The name you have chosen conflicts with a name assigned to another computer. You can’t assign the name “Pollux” to two different computers. Remember that names are not case-sensitive when checking for conflicts." (Pollux is the name I gave to one of the iMacs).
    If I change this name and use another one, but I don't change "Ethernet ID" and then push "Save", the message is:
    "The ethernet address you have chosen conflicts with an ethernet address assigned to another computer. You can’t assign the ethernet address “00:17:f2:d3:38:95” to two different computers."
    So, It seems that WGM knows Name and Ethernet ID from this iMac because it does not let me type them again, but I have not typed this information before nor the iMacs are listed in computer list.
    This is what I don't understand.
    I have have read chapter 6 "Setting Up Computers and Computer Groups", the one that starts on page 105, from top to bottom. I have not found a single clue that helps me solving this problem. Here explains the procedure when everything is working properly.
    Finally, another piece from the puzzle. There is an iMac, that always connects to Directory with Airport interface. I have tried to add this iMac, manually. Well, I get the name conflict message, the Ethernet ID conflict message (with its airport id) and... an Ethernet ID message when I type its Ethernet ID. It seems Directory knows this Ethernet ID even, it has never been used to connect to it.
    Is there some detail I am missing ???.
    Kind regards.
