Changing regions and App Stores

I moved to the UK and changed my Apple ID region from Canada to UK. How can I change the App Store on iPad to make UK purchases? When I try to make a purchase, the store complains that my ID is from the UK.

You cannot use other countries itunes store, unless:
You are physically locates inside the borders of that country and
You have a credit card issued in that country and
That credit card is billed to an address in that country.
This is how it works.
Sorry.

I really need help to change region for app store

I have browsed through this forum followed everything instructed, i still cant change the region for my apple ID. I have tried below for several times.
- I have tried going to settings / itunes & appstore.
- I clicked on apple ID account.
- I clicked on view apple ID
- entered my password
- clicked on country/region
- selected my country
- entered the payment details (card detail used same as country selected)
- entered the the address (card billing address)
- put in phone number
- clicked 'next'
- it goes to the "itunes & app store" page on settings
- tried downloading an app it says "Your account is mot valid for use in Malaysian store. You must switch to the U.S store before purchasing"
Did the above steps seeral times. It goes back to the US region. Please help!
Thanks in advance

It makes no sense to me that her ID works in the iTunes Store but it will not work on the App Store. The same ID should work on both stores - as long as she bought the apps with the ID that she uses in iTunes.
See what account is showing on the iPad in Settings>Store>Apple ID. If it is the wrong ID in there, tap - sign out and then sign in with the correct account.

Change iTunes and App Store AppleID to @cloud or @me

HI all,
I have an iTunes/App Store account AppleID with [email protected] e-mail.
Is there a way to change this e-mail address/login to my @icloud or @me account?
or is it possible to migrate all my [email protected] purchases to @icloud or @me account?
I really have no clue how to do it.
Thank you in advance.
Ray

TS3988 I changed my Apple ID to my new email address successfully for the iTunes and App store but it won't work for iCloud and it won't recognize my password. I read that this can't be done. How am I supposed to get into iCloud?

I changed my Apple ID to my new email address successfully for the iTunes and App store but it won't work for iCloud and it won't recognize my password. I read that this can't be done. How am I supposed to get into iCloud? I plan on getting rid of my old email address which is my old Apple ID so how is that going to work?

Same question Wish someone had replied!
I changed my Apple ID to my new email and now cannot find any way to access icloud. Unfortunately I had allowed icloud to hijack my airbook files, so of course I am afraid I will lose them tomorrow when I exchange my iphone for a new one and cannot keep an icloud account i cannot access. What a poor sync system! Really atypical for apple!

My parents just bought an ipad. Their apple ID is correct in all the places except in the iTunes and App Stores settings. It won't let you click on the Apple ID to change it. What should they do?

Try reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected.

My new iPad3 is set to English language but iTunes and app store are in a foreign language. how do I change this?

My iPad3 is working great but iTunes and app store are in foreign language that I can't understand. Need help changing these programs to english. Other programs are in english and settings is set up for english. thanks, Jim

As far as I know the language of the two stores on the iPad (iTunes and the App Store) can't be changed - they should be in the language of the country where your account is based (if they aren't correct then try logging out of your account by tapping on your id in Settings > Store and then log back in).

ITunes and App store access after changing Apple ID.

Having changed country of residence recently, I changed my Apple ID. However, the old ID continues to come up on my iPad and asks me for my password. The ID has been closed and it will not accept either my old password or my new password under the new ID. It does work on my PC under the new Apple Id, but I cannot access, download or update any apps etc on my iPad.
When attempting to access the Apps Store it constantly comes up with a log-in using my old ID and will not et me change that ID. If I try to change the password using "Forgot password", it simply will not recognise the old ID as being a valid ID. The email address for the old ID is no longer valid or in use and that is why I chnaged my Apple ID rather than setting up a new ID.
Any help greatly appreciated

Hi ,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I am sorry to hear that you cannot connect to or download from the iTunes and App Stores. There are some very good troubleshooting steps that I would recommend in this situation. Please follow the steps and information in the article below.
Can't connect to the iTunes Store
Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.
Have a great day,
Joe

Content and Apple IDs -
Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with another Apple ID with a new Apple ID.
