Do non-US residents Really Need SSN/ITIN or EIN to sell iBooks??

Hi there
I am a resident from Australia and I have no ties (work or personal) to the USA.
I would like to publish my books on iBooks. But the form requires me to provide a US tax ID. Is this really required? Please advice, thanks!
Regards

Hi Resourcey,
Hopefully I can help... I live in the US and am now an American citizen but I was in your position previously.
Let's start with EIN's and SSN's... they are both forms of a TIN - Taxpayer Identification Number.
EIN's (Employer Identification Number) are used for companies, Not For Profits etc. - basically, any person or organisation that employs other people.
SSN is the Social Security Number of an indvidual. If that indivual runs a company that is effectively a sole trader or partnership that doesn't employ anyone in the USA then the SSN can be used to identify that entity too.
For those not resident in or citizens of the US the TIN is actually an ITIN (Individual Taxpayer Identification Number). It's often confused with a SSN because it is exactly the same format. But it begins with a '9' and that indicates that the ITIN cannot be used for employment in the USA.
Does the IRS insist that you have a ITIN? No. But then whoever is paying you the money has to deduct witholding tax from it and account to the IRS for that money. It's a real pain to do this so I can only assume that Apple (quite sensibly IMHO) choose not to by insisting that all submitters do have a TIN.
You can see how to apply for an ITIN at

You can find help on applying form outside of the US at

I hope this helps....
Best wishes.... Ian

Tax number non-US: SSN/ITIN or EIN ?

Signing up to sell books on the iBookstore.
I'm not in the U.S. (I'm in Ireland)
I need a US tax id to sell books on the iBookstore.
I need to apply for that number.
There are two options: SSN/ITIN or EIN.
QUESTION 1:
For a not-US person, is either one or the other better -- SSN/ITIN or EIN ?
Any particular advantages in applying for one over the other?
Also, there's a PDF guide to applying for a number, on the apple ibookstore sign up page – it's: us_ss4.pdf
QUESTION 2:
...is that the right guide for me to follow, as a not-US person?
Or is there a different guide that'd be better for not-US peeps?
QUESTION 3:
And how long does it usually take to get a US tax number, for someone outside the US?
Thanks much.

I have just replied to J Connor with this same information.
You need an EIN number.
If you have an iTunes Connect account, open it, check out the Banking and Contracts section.
You can open and walk through the forms and make notes of what you need.
I have a UK account and it requires an IBAN number from your bank. If you have online banking, email/ message a request or walk in your branch and ask for one.
If you phone the USA...get a phone card which allows low cost calls.. IT TAKE UP TO 15 minutes to go through the application...and they give you the number , although Apple will not see it foe at least two weeks... they send old fashioned letters to you and Apple!
Ignore all the hard luck stories, its a simple process, download the SS4 form from their website, print it, fill it in, they will ask if you have it.
Any problems get back and they can be redolved

Why is EIN needed to sell iBooks?

Does anyone understand why Apple demands non-US residents a EIN to sell iBooks? Does that mean I will need to pay taxes in the US for the books sold via iBooks? Many thanks!!

UK residents DO NOT need an EIN - confirmed by the Apple Legal team. See below. Hope this helps everyone! All i needed was my IBAN...
Dear Team,
I'm not sure how, but when setting up my tax details on iTunes Connect i was faced with a page on which to enter my UK tax details. At the time i did not have an EIN, but now that i do i can't enter it. Please can this be entered onto my account for me?

Hi,
You do not need an EIN. Your contract is in effect, and you are ready to upload and sell books.
Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Thank you. I uploaded my first book three weeks ago and it still isn't in the stores. There is lots of confusing info on your discussion sites and even the itunes connect page says everyone must have an EIN for a paid books account. I wondered whether my first book is taking so long to publish because I had filled something in wrong?
Thank you
Liz
Hi,
Nothing is wrong, we just changed our policy! So when you are an individual, NOT in the United States, you do not need an EIN.
If you want to check up on the status of your book approval process, please email [email protected]
Please let me know if you have any further contract questions.

I have just discovered that none of my mac account emails have gone to my mail account, but gone to icloud instead. I don't really need icloud and want to turn it off and get my mail back to the mail acct. What do I need to do?

I switched my mobile.me acct to icloud april 24th. since then all of my mail has gone to icloud istead of going into my mail on my computer. I don't really need any syncing and just want my mail to go to the mailbox on my computer. what can I do?

Hello John
Sorry I haven't got back to you sooner.
Thanks very much for your help, your solution solved my problem.
Thanks again and kind regards

Getting this 'glitched' music off of my iPod. Really need serious help.

Ok, so here goes the story. 2nd gen ipod, 16GB. this just randomly happened- around a week after i homeshared with my friend and bought some new music.
THERE ARE NO DUPLICATES IN MY LIBRARY CONCERNING THIS MUSIC!!!
Around a week ago, I bought the album Moulin Rouge. I bought it with a gift card on he computer, then re-bought it on my ipod (a mistake, I know) It was completely normal, played normally, no problems. Far before this, I got a song from inception off of itunes, (we built our own world). It was also normal, save the fact that there was a sound at the beginning of it every time it played- like a clap. It started doubling before the moulin did.
The album and song are now behaving oddly. They are doubling themselves up. Like, when I have the Moulin album checked, two of each song pop up in the album. then when I uncheck the album, there still remains the whole album; so it seems there are two copies, one glitched stuck on my ipod, one normal from itunes. Moulin also has very weird ******** album art; the art is like a genius mix cover with another random album. Both of these symptoms are the same with the inception song.
And also, sometimes the moulin picks up random cover art from completely different albums, cover art I have added to songs I have gotten from limewire (NONE OF THE LIMEWIRE SONGS I GOT ARE GLITCHED OR BEHAVING ODDLY)
So, I have reset my iPod several times. I plugged my ipod in, wen under the music tab, and unchecked the 'Sync Music' box. So now the only music that is on my ipod is the weird, glitch music that doesn't seem to be originating from my iTunes library.
I don't even know if restoring my ipod will work with this. I have absolutely no ay of getting this music off my ipod. The 'regular' versions of the song + album are behaving fine, I can still listen to everything on my library.
Please help me. I need to get this iPod through a month or so more, and it just really annoys me to have something like this. I know I can simply create playlists and listen from there, but I kinda need to have my music organized.

For non-iTunes purchases you need a third-party program like one of those discussed here:

Major Issues with installing 4tb internal. Really need advice please

In the process of a long needed upgrade to my 2010 Mac Pro Quad core 2.8 and have run into a serious headache that I really need advice on so I can get back to work. I've already spent 2 days dealing with all of this...
Just did a new SSD install and Migration which went fine but I'm also updating the rest of the internal drives. My main (non boot) drive was being upgraded from a Seagate Barracuda 3tb to a 4th Deskstar NAS (it was showing as compatible with my desktop, see links below). My 3tb ran fine for years but now due to it being heavily used I want to switch to a new drive and I can also use a bit more space.
The issue I'm running into is that initially on boot, my system was telling me it couldn't recognize the disk and it wasn't even showing up in Disk Utility. I had to purchase a SATA USB 3 kit to attach it as an external to get it to show which worked without problem. With the USB kit I was then able to partition it (GUID, Mac OS extended journaled) and format it properly. After reinserting the drive into my tower as an internal it failed to show again. After a few attempts of restarts and trying various bays it popped up but showed as a non formatted drive and I was told again that the system didn't recognise it. I was then given the option to initialise and was then actually able to then format and partition it though Disk Utility while it was installed as an internal.
Figured that was problem solved but when I went to check the drive and getting ready to transfer files over I noticed that Disk Utility was only allowing the First Aid and Partition options but not Erase, RAID, Restore which I'd never seen before. I then also noticed that none of the drive connection info was in the same format nor will it even provide drive bay info, connection info or read/write status (See screen shots). This is what I can't figure out and really need to clarify before I put full trust into using this drive.
Any info would be greatly appreciated...
Deskstar 4tb internal info which is installed in Bay 2
3tb Seagate which I trying to retire and transfer from.
Here are the weblinks to the Deskstar 4tb drive and the compatibility list but I support isn't allowing me to add direct links so add the www. before hand.
(Drive - eshop.macsales.com/item/HGST/0S03664/) (compatibility list - eshop.macsales.com/Descriptions/specs/Framework.cfm?page=macpromid2010.html).

What OSX version?
Disk Utility in later versions of ML and I think Mavericks have problems formatting with 4 TB internal drives.

In testing 9 and X, "Compare Docs" we have a critical issue and really need help!

For years we have used Acrobat 7 to do PDF compares and we love it! However, the company recently advised we must upgrade to 9 and then eventually to X. In testing 9 and X, Compare Docs we have a critical issue and really need help. Our PDFs are produced by IT in a batch process and one of our main, critical functions is to compare previous PDFs to current PDFs; however, in using 9 the Compare screen automatically sets the Doc Description for our PDFs to "Scanned Doc" and does not produce any differences! If you try to change the setting to Reports --it totally shuts down both documents without running! Version 7 runs the compare of the same PDFs beautifully, pointing out all the differences, as usual! Has this every happen to anyone? Do you know what we can do to our PDFs to allow version 9 to do the compare and produce results? Why is 9 treating these non-scanned PDF docs as such? Thanks so much for any help or insight you can give me on this issue!

(Moved the discussion to the correct forum)

You guys really need to fix Messages.

The messages application within Mountain Lion is the most dysfunctional piece of software I've ever seen released, and not patched. Since ML was released, messages has been causing my 2011 MBP to freeze up on resuming and constantly locks up when I type something into the search field. If spotlight can index my entire harddrive, messages can index basic text messages. Also, messages is unable to send files at random times. The files transfer window shows all the files that had attempted to reach me, but their progress bars are stuck. Deleting .plist files for messages fixes this problem, but you should not have to do this. This program is absolutely unacceptable. You guys really need to patch this, or better yet, develop an entirely different messages. Something as simple as this program should have ZERO problems, especially being so late after its release. PLEASE FIX.

Do you really need the shoes to make this product work?

I just saw some information on the TV about this. My question; if anyone can help with it, is do you REALLY need the shoes to make this work. I mean all it is is a little disk and a wireless plug-in for the Nano. It would really help me out if someone can tell me.

You do not need the shoes to make it work. Check out this thread for ways people have gotten the sensor to work with non-nike+ shoes: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=559827&tstart=75

Where's a smart person when you need one? My iphoto just will not open for no reason at all(I REALLY NEED HELP)

I have not done anything strange like changing something in my computer or IPhoto. One day it just decided not to open. I dont have my photos backed up from IPhoto and I really need the photos on there and Iphoto itself to graduate in two weeks.
I will click on Iphoto and it'll jump twice, open but it will be totally blank white and immediately have the spinning rainbow wheel and it never loads. I'll then put my mouse over the icona nd it'll say "IPhoto not responding" and everytime I have to force quit. I really dont understand what happened.
I have googled for days variations of "My Iphoto will not open" and none of what people are saying helps at all because all of them have done something to mess up their apps. I really really need help, please, its got to be something so simple because I didnt change anything on my computer.

As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

Which alsa modules do I really need?

Hi everyone,
I set up sound on a very old PC. At first I set module autoloading in rc.conf, in order to check which sound modules my hardware need. I then realized it could take up to 20 seconds to load udev events at boot time, so I put my sound modules in rc.conf and disabled module autoloading. It brought udev time down to 5 seconds.
I wonder if I can bring it to an even lower value. I suspect some of my sound modules aren't really needed. I'd appreciate some advices to identify which modules are needed, and which are not.

thx

Thanks! I removed pcspkr already. So I have to check which modules are really dedicated to my audio hardware. I suspect none of the 3 you mention are actually needed. I guess I'll have to use lshwd or such.
Is OSSv4 lighter than ALSA. I've never used it before, and I don't really care about audio quality (sound comes out from crappy monitor speakers...).

I am a Brit living in Germany. I really need to be able to purchase from the German iTunes Store (in €) and the English one (in £). How can I set this up from my iPad?

Technically correct (the best kind of correct)
Now if the Op has and retains a UK account with billing address and UK paymant card - He/She can continue to use the UK store in Germany - Apple does NOT use IP address blocking just a valid paymant card attached to a postcode !
Basically the first four of your paymant card are country codes.
What the op needs to do if he/she now has a Germany address and payment method (could just be German € value gift cards) is to open a separate German iTunes Account !
On a PC/Mac its very easy to change stores, however iOS has it a bit more difficult.
In fact i would recommend the Op sets up a new German account and credentials on a PC/Mac first.
And doing so just means opening the store in iTunes scrolling to the bottom of the screen and clicking on the littler circular flag in the bottom right.
After that the browser window is populated with loads of similar disc flags. Clicking any take you to that regional store where provided you have a valid address (Postcode/Zipcode actually) and payment method local credit/debit some prepayment VISA cards or just a gift card you can create a local account.
Oh and because Apple do NOT use IP addressing you don't actually have to be present in the country of that store. Its against to terms of the EULA but it works !
Back to the iOS device
Tap Settings/iTunes & App Store /Apple ID (that will probably be showing the UK account set up).
In the window that opens tap log out
Now change the ID to the new German name and password and in the next window make sure the flag selected is that of Germany (when in Germany)
When buying from the UK store follow that path again log out of the German account and re-log in using the UK ID
As it happens I have a UK Portuguese and US account all active because I have residences in all three - and can visit any of the stores from anywhere.

TS3274 Do I really need to put my debit card information to get a free app ? Why ?

Do I really need to put my debit or credit card information to get a FREE app ? Why ?

You can try removing the card in your account information, but if that credit card expired before you removed it, you might be stuck now,
Settings>Store (or iTunes & App Stores in iOS 6)>Apple ID. Tap your ID. Then tap View Apple ID. Enter your password. Tap the arrow next to Payment Information and select None if it is available in your settings. See if that will work for you.
If iTunes doesn't accept that or if you didn't have None in the options, you are stuck until you enter e new card.
