Cannot Load the iTones Store page from iTones and collect apps Update

My iTune account and credit card am belonging to Hong Kong, but often travel to different countries. I have recently purchased iPhone and MacBook Pro, and also purchased some apps when I was staying in Hong Kong.
This week I visit Singapore and noticed that there are two purchased apps has update. When I click "Update All", it said it was disallowed for my account to download apps in Singapore.
After studying a lot of discussion thread, I think I neglected an important legal term that I cannot purchase or rental apps outside Hong Kong.
However, here I am not trying to access Singapore iTunes apps store, but only visit Hong Kong iTunes apps store. Would there be any possible way for me to only visit Hong Kong iTunes apps store and purchase or collecting apps update?
Right now, I even cannot use iTunes to access iTunes apps store home page. The loading of the iTunes apps store page would stop in the middle. Perhaps iTunes would really check my own public ip address. I connect to internet through Singapore local carrier 3G data access.
Now, many people in the world would travel or even move between countries frequently. Most of Apple fans are willing to spend money on valuable apps, songs or movies. It is pretty ridiculous for blocking us accessing other countries' iTunes store. Even it is copy right issues, at least it should allow me to access my own country iTunes apps store, when I am physically staying at oversea.
Please help suggest me any kind of solution for my situation.

After a month and I am back to Hong Kong, I called to local AppleCare for assistance. Finally my problem has to be fixed by resetting iTunes preference. Here below is the procedure:
0. Quit iTunes application
1. Click the Finder icon in the Dock.
2. Choose Go to Folder from the Go menu.
3. Type /Library/Preferences
4. Click Go.
5. In the Finder window, locate the file named com.apple.iTunes.*
6. Drag all those com.apple.iTunes.* files to desktop or trash
7. Open iTunes application
8. Follow the instruction to setup the iTunes again by clicking Yes
9. After loading all your original audio files, click to iTunes store and try Sign In
With above procedures, now I can access to iTunes and sign in with my account.
AppleCare also said this is part of regular iTunes troubleshooting procedure. She guided me to open a new testing user account in my Mac and open iTunes there. I found that I can access to iTunes Store and sign in with my account. Therefore, it means the iTunes access issue is not because of my computer internet connection issue, but related to my own Mac account iTunes preference setting. That's why she guided me with above procedure to reset iTunes preference.
She said there is a lot of solution about (-50) error documented in "http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3288".
I appreciate very much for this AppleCare technical support. She is so nice and patient for giving me instruction step by step. However, I forgot what her name is. She is worth for being praised.

  • Cannot load the recovery media since my keyboard and touch pad do not work

    My labtop Toshiba C55D-A5392 may have a virus issue which cause the keyboard and touch pad do not function.  initially only a few keys don't work...after a couple days most keys don't work and now no keys are working and the touch pad failed too. I can't even load up windows now.   I bought a recovery media from toshiba and try to reset the laptop to factory settings.  I received the USB drive media from Toshiba, but I cannot load it since I cannot get the laptop into the bios (since my keyboard does not work).  Can anyone help me to resolve this issue?

  • I have used I tunes to download music with a paid I tunes card. I can no longer open the music store to download my music.  When I do open the music store it fades in and out, preventing me from downloading music.

    I can nolonge download music from I tunes, because the music store page fades in and out and will not remain permanent to allow me to download music with a pre-paid I tunes card.
    Also, why is it you can only download music to an I-pod from one primary computer.  Is there a method that will allow me to download music from a variety of computers.

    it only happens for previous purchases - if you have a computer you can try to download your purchase history there and then just sync them to your device - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1386.

    I tookyour suggestion and SUCCESS!  I can now access the Itunes Store.  A simple fix, and thanks so much!!.
    Below is the advice you forwarded:
    I found a solution to my problem.
    > start menu
    > accessories,
    > right click on the command prompt icon and choose "run as administrator".
    Once it opens, type in the following command...
    netsh winsock reset
    hit enter
    You should get a message that the winsock reset successful and you will need to reboot your computer.
    Reboot and when I reloaded itunes the store loaded fine.
    Thanks again, -Dean Stoneburner

  • Please, from where I can download iTunes on my iPad 2? With my current iTunes I cannot acces the iTunes store. Thanx.

    Please, from where I can download iTunes on my iPad 2? With my current iTunes I cannot acces the iTunes store. Thanx.

    Not all content types are currently available in all countries - a list of what is available where is shown on this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3599 . If you are in a country where you can't currently buy music and films / tv shows from Apple, then are there other music / film purchase download sites that you can use ? You can also copy your own CDs via your computer's iTunes and sync them to the iPad.
    The Download tab will show any outstanding downloads that you have - if there isn't anything waiting to download then you will get the Terms and Conditions link.

    I need help in resolving a problem that prevents me from accessing the iTunes store.  Message reads " iTunes cannot contact the iTunes store" and also says that my laptop is no longer authorized to access my account.  Help!

    Go up to the top of your screen on iTunes and click on 'Store'.  Then go down to 'Authorize This Computer'.  That should cover part of it unless you've already authorized a bunch of other computers to use your account.  If that's the case, you'll have to go to one of those computers and click the button just below it to 'deauthorize your account' from that computer.  If you're not able to access the store, check your internet connection to make sure you are connected.  Hope this helps.. good luck!

    Try this,
    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.

    I rented a movie in the iTunes Store but now when I want to watch it it says; 'cannot load the movie' while it says the download has been completed.. What now? I already payed for it.

    Did you rent the movie on your iPad?  Are you trying to watch it on your iPad?
    Do you have WiFi connectivity when trying to start viewing the movie?
    You should have answered "yes" to all the above.  If not, that is probably the source of your issue.

  • Cannot load the bookstore servlet

    I am going through the bookstore tutorial of J2EE 1.4 final version, all the steps are fine, and finally I try to load the servlet with http://localhost:8080/bookstore1/bookstore, it says:
    HTTP Status 404 - /bookstore1/bookstore
    type Status report
    message /bookstore1/bookstore
    description The requested resource (/bookstore1/bookstore) is not available.
    I am pretty sure I followed all the instructions, I checked everything, aliases in the Deploytool, etc. and from the Server admin console, I could see the bookstore1 is deployed with other applications, but why it doesn't work.
    checking the server.log file, I found the foolowing:

    The only thing strange is that "Real JNDI name cannot be empty for jdbc/BookDB", when I set resourse refs tag, I did enter the sun-specific settings, but and I save the file, the infomation of jdbc/BookDB is lost.

    this jdbc/BookDB is defined by using the admin console, and the actual table name is BOOKS, which could be seen by the PointBase console, under SCHEMAS->PBPUBLIC->TABLES nodes. But how this jdbc/BookDB is mapped to the table BOOKS, the tutorial doesn't say. I doubt if this is the problem?
