Changing country back to japan without credit card

The apple id was in japan before, but i wanted to download some apps that can only be downloaded in the china app store.
Now, i cant even go back to the japan itunes store and download or update anything because i have no credit card.
Usually when i try to change my apple id, there is a option 'none' for the credit card selection.
What can i do now? Must i register a new apple id or is there a way to bypass the credit card selection?
Thank you for bearing my bad english.

You need to be in a country to use its store - if you are in Japan then you can only use the Japan store, using another country's store whilst not in a country is a violation of the store's terms which you agreed to. Asking for credit card details is a way of confirming that you are able to download content from that country's store. If you are being prompted to enter credit card details and you don't have a credit card then try contacting iTunes Support and see if they can help you change countries without needing to enter one : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/

  • How can I change my country back to Canada without being forced to enter payment information?

    I made my account in Canada and then I took a trip to the U.S. my friend gave me an iTunes gift card and I used it. Afterward I have to contace support to remove my Apple ID balance so I can switch my country back, but I ended up being forced to enter payment method information. I do not have a credit card and would not want to get one. Is there a way i can change my Country back to Canada without having to enter payment information? (it dosen't have "none" option available)

  • I need to use up all my credits in ITunes but only have $.25. How do I do this as nothing is worth $.25? The reason I need to do this is to change my country for purchases on my Credit Card that is not a US credit card

  • As I try to download apps (Skype) for my new iPhone 5s, a message comes that says that my id is not valid for US and I need to switch to Bangladesh store, there is no Bangladesh store. How to download apps to my iPhone? I created ID without credit card

    As I try to download apps (e.g. Skype) for my new iPhone 5s, using my existing apple ID, it gives a message that my id is not valid for US store and I need to switch to Bangladesh store. There is no bangladesh Store. I created my id without credit card (payment option-none). How can I now downlod from itunes/apps store?

    If you're in Bangladesh, then there is no iTunes Store that you can use. Each country's iTunes Store is limited to those actually in that country. E.G from the terms of use for the iTunes Store:
    The iTunes Service is available to you only in the United States, 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.
    When or indeed if Apple will ever be able to open an iTunes Store in Bangladesh no one here will know.
    If you are physically in the US using a US-based account, post back and we'll go from there.
    Regards.

  • Can i use usa itunes store in the other countries if i have an account without credit card number

    I'm inside the States and using US iTunes store on my iphone 4s (contract free). However I have an account without credit card number. I wonder if I am able to use US iTunes store connected with this account outside the States (say in Russia or Armenia).

    Hello, aligt9p. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    To create an Apple ID without a credit card, there is a specific series of steps that have to be processed in order to allow the payment to be set as none on creation of the account.

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    Why can’t I select None when I edit my payment information?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5366
    If the specific steps have not been processed, a credit or debit card will be required to complete the setup the account.
    However, it can be removed and payment method changed to none as long as there is not an outstanding balance.

    Hi.....Iam having prbs in redeeming the gift cards in iPod touch....my account is without credit card.....is this the prb???and wht to do pls help thanks

    Since it has always been very basic to backup your computer and all it's data, Apple provides no way for you to transfer music from your iPhone back to your computer.  As you know, you can re-download all iTunes purchases, but music that you ripped yourself you'll have to just re-rip again.
    You can try and find 3rd party applications that might help you.  I'm sure you'll pay, however.
    Let this be a very important lesson learned.
    Best.

  • ITunes account without credit card or paypal

    Is there a way of registering an account without credit card or paypal?

    A gift certificate or other gift would be the only other way. Apple is required by the content owners to verify user residency in the country of the Store, so a credit card or prepaid item of some time purchased in the appropriate country is required.
    BTW, Paypal isn't even an option outside of the US at this time.

  • HT2534 iTunes without credit card ?

    Follow the explicit instructions in the article from which the question was posted.  An iTunes account cannot be changed from having a credit card as payment method to "None", it must be created without the credit card.
