Change country on Iphone

Hi,
I have moved to another country and want to change the app store country. I have read that I need to change the country of my Apple Id which is done by going to settings->App store->Apple Id->change country/region. which is all fine, but when I click on the button "Change country/region" nothing happens.
Any advice?

You also need to update your credit card info for the new country.
Credit card must also be from the country you moved to.

  • I have changed country (which was a painful process in its own right) and now can't find my purchases, and when I try to download them again (as per the instructions) they no longer are available - how do I get them back??

    Where do I find my hundreds of dollars of downloads I have done since 2005? I move countries for work regularly and now Iphones detect that you are not in the home country and make life very difficult, so you have to either register the new country and download all new songs again (a complete waste of time and energy) or not be able to update the Apps on the phone. Help - there must be an easier way!! (??) I took what I thought was the least painful option and changed country so I could get the apps on my phone, but lost my songs. This is pathetic for a the new Global world we live in...

    "Where do I find my hundreds of dollars of downloads I have done since 2005?"
    They will only be where you put them  If you are doing the very basics, then they will be on your computer and they will be in your backup copy of your computer.
    The itunes store is not global at all, never has been. You cannot redownload your content from another country.  You can only use the countrys itunes store for the country that you are physically located.

  • HT204266 unable to change country

    code:5107 anyone can help?

    Easiest way, MUST use USB wire to connect to computer's iTune.
    (1) Connect your iphone/ipad to computer
    (2) Make sure you sign in  to iTune and first authorize the computer you are using [ie. Authorize This Computer].
    (3) Click Store > View My AppID > Change Country or Origin
    (4) Select the country you want, follow through all the instructions
    This way should allow you successfully change the country default on your iphone/ipad account.
    I don't know why it only works this way, but if connecting to computer's iTune will help you reduece frustrations, take some time to do it, it will save you hassles.

  • Can't change country for account

    I recently moved from the UK, and though my cards are still attached to banks in there, they now have billing addresses in the US. So, I've dutifully gone off to my iTunes account to change the address details to my US billing address -- but it doesn't work!
    Or it doesn't work all the way .... When I go to change country, selecting the US, I follow the onscreen instructions to change my card billing addresses. But after clicking "Done", I get an error saying my account was changed while I was editing it (errrr, yeah ....) and my details could not be saved (wha ...?).
    Except some of the account details are saved: I've now got a US street address and phone number, but the town, post code, and (all importantly) country are still the old UK info. This is very interesting, but not very helpful. Nevertheless, no matter what I do, I can't seem to get the account details finally switched over to my US address.
    Any thoughts? Is this some bizarre insoluble problem caused by having a UK card with a US billing address? (That would also be interesting, but very annoying!)
    Cheers,
    Carl

    A couple things I'd like to mention since last posting.
    First off, I called Apple again about my issue to see if they were getting close to fixing it. During the conversation the rep i spoke to suggested a work around. Basically, she pointed me to go back to the myinfo site and at the bottom where it says "Don't have an Apple ID?" link to click that and create a new one. So i did and set it all up as US (instead of Canada which it wasn't letting me change from). I went to iTunes and logged into the US store with my new ID and it of course pops up a window saying to verify the info and such and enter your form of payment(or select none). By doing this I was able to authenticate my iPhone and get it all up and working.
    Now my initial concern with setting up a new Apple ID was that the music I had previously purchased with my other account while living in Canada would no longer play because I'd have to authenticate the new ID. So I tested it. When you download a song with a different ID and then click play, it does ask you to authenticate but I am still able to play my older songs too. They also all sync up to the iPhone just fine and all play just fine. So right now it's my recommended work around.
    Little problem though. while I was able to make a new ID with a US address that showed up properly in iTunes, it still would not accept my credit card. My credit card is a Canadian card but I have changed it to a US billing address. iTunes, however, knows this and when you enter it in the payment options and click ok, it tells you that you must enter a valid US credit card. So all im doing now is buying iTMS gift cards with my credit card and then adding them to my new Apple ID when want to purchase something.
    Hope this helps a bit.

  • Changing country in a while

    Hello,
    I am changing country and bank accounts in a couple of months permanently. Is there any specific action I must do in order to avoid any kind of troubles during purchased applications with credit card from my current country? I am now located in Czech Republic and I'm moving back to Greece in June/July. I have seen many topics online on the subject but most of them got me worried and a little bit confused.
    I have purchased applications from the OSX AppStore and the iOS Appstore (iPhone/iPad) with this credit card the last 3 years. Will these apps be able to update, etc?
    Thanks

    You should be able to update them if they are also sold in the store for the country to which you are moving.

  • Changing country. Can't update apps via iTunes

    Have strange issue with my iTunes. After changing country form Russia to Ukraine my iTunes only searches and displays the number of updates. But when I want to update it and clicking on "update apps" iTunes says "No updates are currently available. To check for updates for another APPLE ID, sign in whit that Apple ID."
    But at the same time my iPhone successfully searches and updates all apps for the same Apple ID, and then transfers it while sync with iTunes. What is the problem with my iTunes?

    The solution:
    Delete all your apps in itunes you have purchased in previous country
    Reinstall it

  • Change country even tho my IP is now Italian

    I live in Wales, have just installed Satellite Broadband with Tooway, the IP I now have is in Italy. Too way has provided Proxy Settings to temporarily solve some of my problems until they get proper IPs for their UK Customers. My iPhone and iPads now recognise I'm in UK after 3 Days of thinking I'm in USA, but Apple TV insists I am in America hence can't rent Movies and TV etc. When I change country on settings it always reverts to Italy. Any suggestions??

  • Cant change country on store

    Its very weird what I am experiencing.
    I am trying to change my app store back to US.
    I know that in order to be able to be in the US store I need a valid credit card from the US.
    If I go to change country, on itunes it ends in an error saying :
    "we could not complete your itunes store request. the network connection could not be established change country"
    So nothing.
    If I want to change the credit card to a US credit card it doesnt let me cause the country is set as default to the one different than the US. So I cant put in a US credit card.
    If I try to do it on my iphone I go to
    Setting > Itunes Store and App Store> Hit on the acct> View Acct> >Hit on the country> Then there I hit on Modify Country and nothing happens. JUST A BUG, nnothing happens. so something should be wrong here.
    Apple please help ASAP.

    contact iTunes support and see if they can help you

    Hi Sockatume,
    Few days back I wanted to download BBM for iPhone to which I was diverted to New Zealand App Store automatically.
    So whenever I tried to download apps from the AppStore it said, I wasn't in the region which I should be that is India and being in different region I can't download any app.
    So I followed the instructions as above. After updating the region and the proceeding pages of the instruction. There was a deduction of money.
    I didn't buy any gift card or anything neither I went to that page.

  • Change country selected by nothing happens

    I am now at the point where I am trying to change country or region on my iphone. Each time I select this option, nothing happens. What gives apple?

    Apple are not here, these are user-to-user forums.
    You've tried closing the app that you are using to try and change your country via the phone's taskbar and then re-tried ?
