You must have a credit card with a billing address within the country of the store you're buying from. Probably not Apple's choice but a matter of legalities, taxes, etc.

How can I download an app only appearing on the German iTunes store onto my German iPad which is registered in the U.S. iTunes store? G

I am an American living in Germany, and own a German iPad. It has the ability to connect both to WIFI and to a commercial over the air wireless network.For the latter connection, I want to use a pay by use (by the day, or by the month) account offered by ALDI, a German discount grocery store. This would be ideal for occasional use when away from home.
My iPad is registered with the U.S. iTunes store, so that I can purchase American items such as books, movies, TV serites, etc. in English with U:S: Dollars.
However the ALDI app is not available on the U.S. iTunes store, i.e. it is only available on the German iTunes store.
I have purchased the ALDI SIM card for my iPad, but need the ALDI app in order to make it work.
Yes, I know ALDI has stores in the U.S., but they do not offer the app I need to connect to the applicable German wireless cell phone network that is based in Germany.
I need to find a way to put the German app onto my German iPad, but do not want to switch to the German iTunes store from the American iTunes store.
I could put the SIM card in a smart phone to activate it and also to recharge it with purchased time, but would need to find a way to tell the iPad to connect to the Web via the SIM card.
I have a radio device which holds a SIM card and plugs into the USB port on my Microsoft Windows systuem laptop computer, and it works like a charm. however, when I set it up, it downloaded software onto my laptop - or maybe only to the SIM card - not sure. To logon, when it is plugged into my laptotp, a program opens and I have to insert a password in order to activate the connection, which uses credit loaded onto the chip.
Can anybody solve this problem?

You cannot use other countries itunes stores.
You must be within the Country with a Valid Billing Address and Credit Card for that Country to use the iTunes Store of that Country...

HT2242 Change German language to English in German iTunes Store?

Is there a way we can change the German iTunes Store language to English? Currently I don't see any options that would or could help.
Sometimes, its easier to use English words for common actions like share or gift. Than sticking to the native mother tounge.
Let this be a FEATURE REQUEST.
Enable ENGLISH LANGUAGE for all countries iTunes Stores.
Thank you!

Download music from German iTunes store?

hi,
i was in germany recently and got vouchers valid for the german itune store. but i'm a uk resident. how can i download the music from the german store?
thanks.

Unless you can show some form of residency you cannot buy from another country's store. The question on cross store purchasing is asked frequently so I'll just quote the most complete answer (courtesy of Dave Sawyer) from the many given:
In order to buy from any given country's iTunes Music Store, you must have either:
a) a credit card with a billing address in that country, or
b) a mailing address in that country and a gift certificate or a prepaid card that was bought in that country. (Having the certificate or card itself is not sufficient).
If you cannot fulfill one of these two sets of conditions, you will not be able to purchase from any given country's iTMS.
.......this is due to restrictions placed on Apple by the record companies and other rights holders (who are often completely different from country to country and so all require their own individual negotiations and contracts), not by Apple's choice. And this also applies to all the legal download stores that carry major-label content, not just the iTMS.

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.

HT204411 I would like to purchase a movie in English on German iTunes Store, is that possible ?

I'm connected to a German iTunes store as I'm living in Germany now but I would like to buy movies and TV series only in English.
Why is there no possibilty to switch country on iTunes store since each country has different offers ?!
I'm Polish and I would like to purchase Polish movies in Polish language and American movies in English and since I'm living in Germany, I would purchase German movies only in German.
I hope there is or will be a possibilty to switch from country to country as it brings me a huge inconvienience right now.
Greetings

All content is licensed to Apple by the rights-holders to sell on a country-by-country basis, so all countries have to have thier own stores and you need to be in a country to use its store. If there are films that you would like to be able to buy then you can try leaving feedback for Apple, but unless the rights-holder for Germany agrees to it then Apple won't be able to seel them there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

Accessing german ituns store.how do i change settings.

i'm from ireland and am trying to download podcasts off itunes.when i try to access i tunes store it automatically accesses the german version.is this a setting i have on the computer or on the itunes store that i must change to get an english language version.
cheers for your help.

go down the iTunes Store page until you reach the bottom. there you can select the store you want. but in order to be able to purchase from the store, you need a valid account in the selected country.

Can I buy a song from the German iTunes Store while in the U.S.?

I'm from the US and have and buy all my music through the iTunes store. However, there's a song I want only available in the Deutchland iTunes store. It's .99 Euro. Anyone tried doing this? Is it possible? And does it equate to around $1.60 or whatever the exchange rate is? Thanks.

It can be done but it's a pain.
I'm a dual Canadian/US citizen. I move back and forth between the two.
To purchase from itunes in more than one country you need more than one account.
I set up my US account while I was in Canada, so you don't need to be in the Germany to buy from Germany. You do need a German itunes gift card and a mailing address in Germany.
I have a legitimate US address, but to the best of my knowledge the address isn't really verified. I'm not suggesting you do anything dishonest, but when you have ties to two countries residency can be a vague concept.
The really annoying part is itunes, and your ipod, will only recognize one account at a time. I have found that when I sync logged into my Canadian account apps purchased from the American store are disabled, even if they were already on the ipod.
Apple's licensing protection is not unbiased, I haven't yet had any problems when I sync logged into the US store.
Personally I think blocking content you've already purchased violates the consumer's rights.

Original Audio for Movies in the German iTunes Store

Hey there,
I bought a movie from my german iTunes Acount. Apparently there is no original audi with it. Is there a chance to get the original audio afterwards?

That message is infuriatingly misleading. I'm being told that it is not available in the UK Store but is available in the German Store. In point of fact it isn't available anywhere.
A number of people have complained recently that it's taking a lot longer than it should for newly accepted podcasts to appear in the Store. If your feed is OK there isn't really anything you can do except wait. You could try emailing Support at podcasts 'at' apple.com but I'm afraid you will probably just get a form answer telling you how to submit a podcast (which you already know). Your feed appears to be OK.

German iTunes Store - Link to 2.0 is broken

Hello everyone,
I tried all night long to download software update 2.0. iTunes tell me if I would like to switch to the iTunes Store and when I do so, the moving bar comes for a few seconds and then i am on the page of my ipod touch again.
The link on apple.com also has the same effect.
Am I the only one ore does someone share the same problem?

Yes... all around the world people have (at least once, 'cept for Steve Jobs ) experienced this problem. Lets see how much money I have actually spent on this iPod:
$399 iPod Touch 16GB
$30-40 iTunes (at least)
$20 for the software update
$50 for the composite v/a connector
$30 in screen protectors
$40-50 on cases
$50 Apple universal dock
$70 for a decent pair of headphones(The Apple in-ear ones broke, gave my friend a shuffle for the refund)
$60 in preperation to buy those rediculiously expensive apps
Lets add that all up...
Total:$770(thats almost a flippin laptop!) and yet apple STILL stabs me in the back...however, i am not as concerned at the price compared to the time of wait... Apple should have prepared for this. Bottom line. They had the time to, they should have, they didn't. Dont forget the fact that Apple had released the App Store, Who many bought apps for already for their iPod Touch, only to find out that they didnt release the 2.0 update. iTunes is most likely the problem, due to the fact that 7.7 would show the "Upgrade" button, until you downloaded an app.
BOTTOM LINE: Apple should have prepared for this. If you want to check out some nice apps for free, i suggest you look at the Apps Titled: Remote, Pocket Express, and more.

ITunes store in German

Can anyone help me please? I'm an Irishman living in Germany but my understanding of the language limits my use of the iTunes store. Is there any way to view the German iTunes store in English? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

When you dowmload itunes you should be able to choose any language under the country in which you live.

How do I use 2 different iTunes Stores?

How do I use 2 different iTunes Stores simultateously? Active account in South Africa, but need to download apps from the German iTunes Store - which iTunes does not allow, as these apps do not appear on the South African iTunes Store.

You cannot do this.

I can no longer purchase anything at the iTunes store. I get error 45064

For the past 18 months I have not been able to purchase items here in Germany. My situation is a bit odd, I have my computer and IP in Germany, my billing is a USA account. I continually get error 45054. No matter what I do, it does not work. I've even gone so far as to cancel my account and delete all iTunes files, nothing works. However, when visiting the USA, I brought my laptop, joined iTunes and was able to purchase music. However, the second I tried to do so, with the same laptop, after returning to Germany, I received the same error notice.
I suspect it's a tax issue, music purchased here in Germany through iTunes is significantly more expensive than the USA site. I'd like find out if an iTunes technician can figure this one out, perhaps even remoting into my computer.

If you are in Germany then you can only use the German iTunes store - you have to be in a country to use its store, using a country's store when not in that country is a violation of the store's terms (terms that you've agreed to) and Apple could permanently disable your account.
Edit : just noticed that your tagline says Windows
This appears to have worked for at least one person : -45054 error on 1 profile, but not the other
Or you could try the troubleshooting on this page which has been posted in response to a couple of 45054 threads : Can't connect to the iTunes Store - Apple Support
If they don't work then you could try asking in the iTunes For Windows forum on here.

ITunes store does not match that of the gift card...

I got a gift card from Germany and live in Switzerland. Apple support recommends to give it away to somebody living in Germany or so... Not very helpfull !
In internet there are some blogs how to install an account in a foreign country, but you have to indicate a fake address inside of that country... Not so cute !
Any other possibilities around?...

Apple support recommends to give it away to somebody living in Germany or so... Not very helpfull !
Sorry, but whether or not you think that suggestion helpful, it's all you can do. As RG said, iTunes cards are country-specific. A German iTunes card can be used only in the German iTunes Store, and you cannot use the German iTunes Store from Switzerland.
Regards.
