Changing iTunes store account to different country - subscriptions

If i change my UK itunes account to one in Belgium, does that mean i lose all of my subcriptions ? I am currently subscrided to Martha Living magazine which is available in both itunes stores but am not sure what will happen to the remainder of my subcription once i switch my country on my account.

Kay - I am about to start a 3 year period working in Belgium. I currently have a UK itunes account.
If I create a new Belgium itunes account are there are any issues switching between the 2 accounts within itunes and across my mobile devices with respect to keeping all my content (inc apps)??
Presumably if an app doesn't exist on a certain itunes store then I would need to sign-in to my old account periodically to update them?
Although itunes t&c prohibit using their store when outside the geographical confines of the respective country, in practice, if I keep my uk itunes billing address then I could switch between the two??

  • How do I change my Ipad to access Itunes store in a different country than the one I usually use and have my account with?

    I usually use the Itunes application on my Ipad in FRence and use the French Itunes store. I am now in Cyprus and after synchronising my Ipad there I now can access the US Itunes Store but my purchases are refused as my account is with the French Itunes store.  How do I either open an account with the US Itunes store or revert to the French Itunes store on my Ipad?

    synchronising is not the problem i think, you need a new US apple id. i only have a malaysian credit card but i have separate ids for US UK and Malaysia. i have travelled to these 3 countries and have home adresses in each country but for buying stuff, I use an iTunes store card instead of a credit card cos its easier. you do not need a credit card that must have billing address from the same country as the iTunes store. So I would suggest if you are currently based in the US go the nearest apple store buy an iTunes store card (i buy in multiples of US$100 with a credit card) and use your current US home address as the US iTunes address.
    so log off your french iTunes store account, create new US apple id for your iTunes store account using your current US address and then redeem your itunes store card and voila you are set to go. (did i mention you will also need a new separate email address for the new apple id) i have one each from gmail, yahoo and hotmail for each separate id.
    the only drawback is that when you want to do an update for the apps that you buy from the different iTunes store, you must log in to that iTunes store account ie if you buy an app from the US store you must log in and update with the US store id and to update the apps from the French store you must log off from the US store and log in again with the french store id.
    hope this makes sense to you.

  • Changing iTunes Store accounts with Automatic Downloads

    I use my Mac Mini at home as my media server/HTPC, and contains my iTunes library.  I want to copy all my music to my MacBook Air for work, as my internet at work is too slow for iTunes Match to work effectively.  Therefore, I was going to set Automatic Downloads for music on both Macs so that they would stay in sync.
    However, I have both an Australian iTunes store account and an old UK one, which I still use to download BBC TV programmes from.  According to the Apple KB though:
    "Once a device or computer is associated with your Apple ID, you cannot associate that device or computer with another Apple ID for 90 days."
    Does this mean that I can't change the store from AU to UK for 90 days?  Or is the Apple ID you use in the store different to the device's Apple ID?

    I'm having this problem too (except with from Japan to US)! Did you ever get a solution? I don' want to create a new account because I want to keep all of my purchases.

  • ITunes Store Accounts in different countries.

    Hi,
    I first made an iTunes account when i was living in france. And so all the apps that i bought was from the iTunes French Store.
    Now i have moved to India and want to shift my account to the Indian iTunes Store. How do I do that? Do i get to keep all the Apps that i have bought in the previous Store?
    Thanks...

    To purchase in the India store, you will need to update your store account with credit card info that has a billing address in India. Then, scroll to the bottom of the Store page and look for an icon (on the right) of the French flag. Click the icon and look for the India store and select it.
    As to your apps, as far as I know, you can keep them. I'm just not sure if there are issues with updates. Perhaps someone else knows more about that.

  • ITunes Store Account from other country

    Hi
    I am Swiss citizen. Howto rent Movies in iTunes Germany or iTunes America?
    Background: in Swiss iTunes Store there are no movie and serials rentals.
    Is this possible?

    Then what way to go to buy in German iTunes store? Is there no way?
    this comes from the horse's mouth (though in this case pertaining to the US store):
    +From the itunes store terms of service:+
    +"Purchases or rentals (as applicable) from the iTunes Store are available to you only in the United States, its territories, and possessions, and are not available in any other location. You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Store from outside of the available territory. Apple may use technologies to verify such compliance"+
    IMHO is more legit, than downloading off torrent sites
    for sure.
    if i were you, i'd talk to Apple either via Apple telephone numbers or iTunes support

  • ITunes 11.0.3 and multiple iTunes Store accounts - any Idea

    Hello,
    I have an German and an Austrian iTunes Store Account. Main reason for that
    is that Apple does not allow you to transfer Apps bought from an account in one Country
    to an iTunes Store account from another country, although those countries may be
    members of the European Union.
    Anyway: Prior iTunes Version 11.0.3 handling Apps from two different accounts was
    relatively easy. I clicked on "Apps" on the left hand side panel in iTunes.
    All Apps would be then displayed.
    Then there was an "Check for Updates" Button. Click on that would display *only* the Apps
    that need update bought with the account that is *currently* signed into the iTunes Store
    and then  just click on the "Update All" Button and thats it. Then I would sign out and sign in
    with the other account, repeat the procedure described above and that's it.
    Now with iTunes 11.0.3 Apple made the entire thing a night mare. I click on Apps in the left hand
    iTunes panel. Then there is an "Updates" tab. You click on that and then all Apps needing an update
    from all iTune Accounts you have are displayed. You click on update all and then iTunes starts updating
    the Apps until it comes to the first App bought with a different iTunes Store Account. Then is stops with
    a warning message. Then you need to sign out and in. Then restart update process until it comes
    to an applications that is bought with a different iTunes account and so on and so on.
    Any idea or work-around how to get iTunes 11.0.3 to have the same behavour liek teh versiosn before ?
    Thank you!

    Is this the error your gettings?
    If so, remove the installer, and redownload the itunes set-up installer

  • Can I still use/sync/update my purchased apps if I change the country of my iTunes Store account for good? (PH-US)

    I'm planning to change the country of my iTunes Store account from the Philippine Store to the US. If I do, is it still possible for me to sync and update my apps purchased from the PH iTunes Store? And will I still be able to purchase in-app purchases?
    Thanks!

    You can't change countries if you have a credit on your account - if you can't spend it then you can try contacting iTunes Support and ask them if they can remove the balance so that you can do so : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • How to get Apple ID and password that is different to iTunes store account which I have already activated and completed contracts, tax information and bank information I want to create a Paid Books Account use apple ID

    I was given this address from the Apple customer support team.
    I have an active existing iTunes store account and use the same Apple ID for signing into my iTunes Connect Account that distributes Apps.
    I have created some books using the iBook author and in order to distribute content on the iBookstore I have been told electronically that I need a new Apple ID and password that is different to iTunes store account which I have already activated and completed contracts, tax information and bank information valid until 2013?
    I want to create a Paid Books Account using the same email address, tax information and bank information. This has been most frustrating, as I cannot get passed the sign in section and there is no contact person I can speak to. I was of the understanding the iTunes connect account and the Developer programs which I paid good money for is all what I needed to be paid for selling iBooks on the iBookstore???
    I only have one email address and wish to also use it for the Paid Books Account. I have books ready to be exported and published.
    I am also having trouble locating and downloading iTunes Producer. I understand I need to have the Paid Books Account active to access the iTunes Producer program. Please help.

    Hi Lrwill,
    If the apps that are on your son's iPad were purchased under his Dad's Apple ID, then signing your Apple ID onto the iPad will not help you with updating those apps.
    Also, if the iPad was sync'd with his Dad's iTunes library, then hooking it up to your computer/iTunes library, will require you to reset the iPad, and everything that was loaded under the other Library and Apple ID will be wiped out.
    Can you provide a little more info about what was set up under which Apple ID and what iTunes library the iPad was sync'd with?
    Cheers,

  • Can I use 2 different countries alternatively in one iTunes Store account?

    Thank you very much in finding time to read (and possibly answer) this query of mine. My iTunes Store account is Philippine-based (even though I live in Dubai right now) ever since I had one and most of my apps we're purchased in that store. However, since a there are a lot of apps and most especially eBooks which I could only get from the US iTunes Store, I am planning to alternatively change the country of my account from Philippines to US and vice versa whenever I need to update apps on a specific store. But my default country would still be in the Philippine iTunes Store. Is that possible? Can I still read my purchased eBooks (from the US iTunes Store) for my iBooks app even if I revert back to the Philippine iTunes Store? Because the eBook selection for the Philippine iBookstore *****! It doesn't offer popular titles or new ones for people to read. Anyway, I've got my auntie's US address for me to be able to make a US iTunes Store account and I'll be using a iTunes gift card for my purchases since I don''t have a US-based credit/debit card with me.
    I'd be so grateful to anybody who could give me specific answers to my specific questions on this post.
    Thanks in advance!

    It is illegal to access an iTunes Store in one country from another country. I know what you are doing, so I'm informing you that doing so is a violation of law.
    "Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location."
    From here >  The Complete Guide to Using the iTunes Store | iLounge Article
    Billing policy is the same for the iTunes and Mac App Stores.

  • How do i change my Itunes store account?

    How do I change my Itunes store account details or change to another country?

    If you are now in another country then you will need to update the billing address on your account (and if using a credit card that will need to have been issued by a bank in your new country and be registered to your new address), which you should be able to do via your computer's iTunes (Store > View Account menu option) or by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your iPad and logging into to it. You won't be able to change countries if you have iTunes Match, outstanding rentals or season passes or have a balance on your account - you will need to contact iTunes Support to get the balance removed : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
    If you are getting a 'not in this country' message when trying to download items from the stores on your iPad then yry going to the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app on it and tap on your account id, tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account, and then select the Country/Region section and select your country.
