Do I need an international credit card to buy on iTunes, or may I use a regular credit card?

I don't have a credit card but I know a friend who has one, but it's not internacional. It's a regular credit card, from Portugal.
I wanna buy an app which is paid and I wanna know if I can use that regular credit card to purchase it, or if I need an international credit card.
I'm new to Apple, just bought my first iPhone last week and I'm still seeking for help about everything around Apple's world.
Please, no mean answers.
Thank you in advance.

The shipping/billing address is right, and once iTunes only asks me to input the credit card stuff I guess it doesn't really need to be mine.
All I wanna know is if the credit card used on iTunes needs to be international or not.
If this helps to make me more clear: when I wanted to create a PayPal account, I called my bank agency and they said I needed an international credit card to be used on it. That's why I'm asking if I also need that kind of CC for iTunes.
Thanks for your reply though.

You don't need an international credit card, to be able to buy items from your country's store (you can't use another country's store) the card needs to have been issued by a bank in your country and be registered to your name and address. If you only want to be able to download free app from your country's store then there are instructions on this page for creating a new account without giving credit card details : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534

chi45,
You must have your iTunes and App Stores set to the same country that your billing information is based in (i.e.: must use a US credit card in US iTunes and App Stores).
If you move to another country, you need to change the country of your iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, and Mac App Store account. Otherwise, your credit card might not work as payment. For example, only German credit cards can be used to buy content from the German iTunes and App stores.
Can't change the country of your iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, or Mac App Store account

How can I use an international credit card when I bought my iPad in china and currently a residence of china?

I want to purchase apps and because I reside in CHina the options for payment are Chinese banks and yet I hold an international credit card. I want to pay for my apps and unfortunately because I am not a Chinese citizen, I don't hold a local credit card but debit cards, does it mean I can't use my international British bank credit card to buy apps in China, as I also bought my IPad in China. The prompts for payment don't give me an option of international banks, but local Chinese. Please help me as I would love to have freedom to use my IPad and be able to purchase apps I want.

I am running Itunes 9 on Tiger. Everytime I try to edit my credit card number, it says "session timed out". I need to change the card number in order to purchase music. Also, I lost the last 2 purchases. Can I download them again without a charge?

Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not available in all countries; apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this). Movies currently available in the USA only. Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later. Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list, or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid. Apple notes it is your responsibility to back up your purchases.

Does Pick Up at store by friend really need the physical credit card used?

Can I pay with a credit card by phone from Miami for friend in Spokane WA to pick up? Friend has WA State ID. Does friend need my physical credit card for in store pick up?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

If the friend is listed under friends and family pickup they will not need the credit card but they will certainly still require an ID.
Yes you can place an order for pickup in another state, I have done it before for other customers just be sure to have your friend listed in the friends and family pick-up

Purchasing with International Credit card but real US address?

Hello guys.
I'm wondering does apple US store accepts International credit card and shipping to a real US address.
When I say real address it means it is not a forwarder address. (its my sister's)
I know Apple US store accepts international CC but for any other products but how about iPhone and iPad2 ?
I'm sure some people was in my same situation.

I have a lot of experience buying internationally from Apple. I doubt that an International card will be acceptable. Apple requires a US billing address for any bank card used in the US online Apple Store in addition to a US shipping address that is not a suspected forwarder.

Itunes store does not accept my international credit card, which is Diners internacional, and i think my credit card is discover in the USA. So what do i have to do to buy on itunes store?

i want to know how i can buy on itunes store with my international credit card, which is Diners Club international, and I think my credit car is call Discover in the USA.

Well, I can certainly understand the licensing argument if I were using a Japanese credit card with a Japanse address and making a purchase with Japanese yen from the US Store from Japan.
When I am making a purchase with US card from the US store with US dollars, the argument becomes a bit suspect (I know it is Apple's, not your argument).
it is just kind of a paradoxical situation and I am hoping Apple will offer some sort of solution. We can always hoe, right?
Thank you for your reply.

Internal Airport card

I have read all kinds of posts on airport , but they do not answer a question or two that I have . My daughter bought an iPod in April of this year and we were able to use the airport card in the iMac to connect to the internet . Then when Snow Leopard came out I installed it on that day . Then the connection started to be on and off then I couldn't turn airport on unless I rebooted then it may or may not work . One apple support person said that I shouldn't even be able to share the internet that way . I got ahold of another person in support and she had me do some things to see if the hardware was the problem . It wasn't so she had me do a clean install of snow leopard and it has worked fine until three days ago . Now apple support says that what I am trying to do is not supported and I was more or less lucky to have had it work that way . So they say I need a router . Even my wife's net book has been doing what the ipod touch has been doing . Now my other question is even if I had a router to connect to the airport card it would have to receive and transmit , which support says it is not a transmitter . What the blank is the airport card suppose to do the , besides take up room Thank you for reading this far .

Yes I am frustrated . But don't get me wrong my iMac is a thing beautiful . What I have is DSL comes into the house and into my DSL modem then into my iMac . And I was using the internal airport card to share internet with the iPod and a net book . Right now my air port is off and I cant turn it on unless I restart . There is only one support person that helped me and I am trying to get ahold of her. And yes it was working befor for internet shareing but not now . And I live at least 150 miles from an apple store . Oh blue me spare and agony on me .
This is one response I have recieved
.Ah… Mac OS X 10.6.x: and therein, lies the problem. Apple may have dropped explicit support for what is termed Internet Sharing with the release of Snow Leopard's first update, but it is not entirely clear if this is the case. Behind the scenes, there are mixed messages. Some AppleCare support and Apple Store employees have indicated that it is no longer explicitly supported, while others have insisted that it is. The question has been escalated to Engineering, but it may be weeks before there is an official answer or, if necessary, a fix. They've done things like this before—with Address Book interaction for dialing or SMS transmission with a mobile handset, for example, with the introduction of Mac OS X 10.5—and telephony features like that one I just described have never been reintroduced.
I reiterate that as someone who deals extensively with network issues and has for more than 15 years, that using this capability is a VERY poor practice. I get that it's cheap and convenient, but it exacts a terrible cost on other users worldwide. The direct connection of any device to a 'data utility' provider is the reason that SO many machines, connected around the clock to broadband providers, have become network 'zombies' or 'botnets.' There are hundreds of thousands of them now, and these machines are almost exclusively the driver for DNS, distributed denial of service, data theft, and trojan software insertion. While it's true that such machines are typically limited to those running Windows XP or earlier, it really is a huge issue. Our electronic commerce site is routinely attacked literally hundreds of times a day.
I suggest that to protect yourself—and, in particular, that Windows OS based netbook—as well as others, that you purchase a suitable hardware router and gateway with wireless capabilities, and that you enable WPA security at a minimum.
Believe me, a single successful attack against an XP machine, even once detected, will cost you many times the dollar cost of a typical gateway, in just a single incident. Not to mention the ongoing cost of the loss of personal information, such as credit card data, bank account and other financial information, and loss due to your passwords being 'lifted' by a nefarious program inserted into your network.
I appreciate that you don't expect passers-by to log onto your wireless network in a rural area, but—by far—the greatest threat is being hit by robotic queries from the outside edge of your net, not the inside edge. If you choose to install a router and look at its logs after attaching and configuring it, you will be shocked at the volume of unsolicited queries or 'attacks' of your IP address.

HT2534 How do I get an international iTunes account setup. I am living in Mexico for a few months and was told by nbaleague pass that I needed an international iTunes account.

I was told by NBAleague pass that I needed an international iTunes account and I do not know how to sign up for one.
Thanks

You can create a new account on your iPad e.g. tap on your existing id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores and log out of it and you should then get a 'Create New Apple ID' option.
If you want to create an account without giving credit card details then log out of your existing account and then follow the instructions on this page for creating it : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534 i.e. log out and then go to the App Store app and find a free app, tap on its free 'price', tap 'install app', then tap 'create new Apple id' and select your country's store and create an account.

Inter Company Credit Memo (Internal Credit Memo)

Hi,
I have searched the forum using: 'Inter Company Credit' ' Internal Credit Memo' and 'IG'.
Found some information but still do not have full picture.
We use an inter company process - similar to cross company selling - where company code A supplies company code B via an inter company PO. Company code A then bills company code B using the standard inter co billing type (IV), this has output RD04 set up which makes the posting via an idoc into the receiving company code's financials.
This all works very well.
Although we are now at the stage where we need to issue internal credits ie company code A credits company code B - for example goods did not arrive.
Seems that this is a real grey area - searched everywhere - internet, SAP, books etc. I have not found any comprehensive information ie full process and configuration required.
I have learnt that all inter-company billing must be in relation to a delivery - is this correct?
I have 2 scenarios:
1. Goods are returned back to the supplying company code, so therefore need to to raise an internal credit memo.
Can returns order RE be used for this, using company code's B internal customer number as the account number? RE is set up with the inter-company billing type IG, so this would bring the stock back on hand into company code A.
The credit would then be processed against the rtns delivery (LR) but how would billing know which billing type to use, in other words does billing know that we are trying to process an inter company transaction?
2. Goods are not returned - just wish to process a credit.
As a delivery document is required, we still need a delivery to be created in this process.
I have found SAP note 24756 which explains the set up of new order type, doc flow, item cat etc - I think this is all required so that the returns delivery used is just a dummy delivery therefore not relevant to warehouse / PGI. Is this set up still required?
Does anyone out there have any experience in this area? I think there is a real lack of knowledge in this area......I'm really struggling!!!!!
Incidentally we require the credit to be processed via idocs same as normal billing.
We are on 4.6C.
Many thanks in advance.
Regards
Guy

Unfortunately, I don't have enough experience with intercompany billing to consult you on these questions. Also I've never worked with a release older than 4.7.
You might want to read [SAP Help|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_470/helpdata/en/dd/5614e7545a11d1a7020000e829fd11/frameset.htm] and request your manager to get a consultant specifically with the intercompany experience for a few days.
When posting on SDN, I'd recommend to ask only specific questions when you run into an issue (after you've done research and tried to resolve it yourself, of course). Large "blanket" posts rarely get any response here (and for a good reason).
I'm guessing that your sales org. error is because one of these prerequisites is missing:
- Permissible combinations of plant and sales organization must be defined
- Sales area data (sales organization, distribution channel, and division) must be assigned to each plant that participates in intercompany sales processing
This is mentioned in SAP Help (see link above).
Good luck!
