Gift from a friend in the USA and I'm in Canada.

Hey guys!
A friend from the USA gifted me Applause by Lady Gaga but it says only available in the USA. Is there a fix or did we just waste money?

Sorry, but gifts cannot be given to another country, so you will not be able to redeem that gift. Your friend will have to redirect the gift to someone in the US, or contact the iTunes Store and request a refund.
Regards.

I can't use up my store credit balance. I want to change my store to redeem a gift from a friend in the Norwegian store, but it says that I'm unable to do so because I'm in the American one, and I have to use up all my credit before I can change. Help?

I want to change my store to redeem a gift from a friend in the Norwegian store, but it says that I'm unable to do so because I'm in the American one, and I have to use up all my credit before I can change. How do I use up all my credit when I have $0.54?

You can try contacting iTunes Support and ask them if they can remove the balance from your account so that you can change countries (we are fellow users here on these forums) : 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

Can I purchase an IPad Air in the USA and use it in Canada to process credit card sales?

It will work in Canada, but if you purchase a WiFi+Cellular model I'm not sure that the warranty would be honored in Canada. If you live it Canada, it would be better to purchase your iPad there.

HT4865 i bought a ipod touch from a friend on the street and i cant even use it

is there a way i can get passed the activation lock

Yes, get your "friend on the street" to remove the Activation Lock by entering their AppleID password, or by going to the iCloud website and removing the device from their account.
The Activation Lock is a security feature and cannot be bypassed - if it could be bypassed it would be a useless security feature.

Does it cost money to send / receive a music / app gift from a friend via the email ?

I am currently having an issue and want an album my friend has purchased and heard about sending them as gifts, but i am not sure whether it costs either party to receive or send these apps or music albums as it says something about buying when I searched how to send the gift on this website. thanks

Really????
it doesnt cost money to send an app from your computer to your phone. coz ur sending it via bluetooth or cable.
if you're talking about from the internet, most websites just send a link to your phone and you then need to open the link (i.e. browse) to download the app, so that would cost money (i.e. use your internet account)

I was an Exchange student in the USA and I had a American Credit card. It expired, now back in the Netherlands I found out I still need to pay some bills. But I can't change credit cards, cause I'm not in the USA anymore

Yeah, so I had a American credit card from bank of America, and I closed my bank account before I left the country.
When I came home I found out I still need to pay like $2.00 but I can't change the country cause I need to pay my bill first,
but I can't because I don't own a American credit card anymore... what do I do??

Contact a friend in the USA and have them mail to you a cheap US iTunes Gift Card that you can redeem in your US account. Or, if a friend has an iTunes account, they can use the iTunes app on a Mac or PC to buy a cheap electronic gift certificate for you. The second option would be faster.

iTunes match is a subscription that you have in when you were still in the UK. According to the terms & conditions you'll need to wait for the susbcription to end before you can change your country to iTunes Store USA.

I tried to install an app from Channel 4 in the UK and got a message that my account would not allow that. Now I appear to be permanently connected to the UK ITunes Store. How to get back to the USA store?

Never mind, after about 20 minutes it switched back by itself.

Is there any difference between an unlocked Iphone sold in australia and the USA and if i bought one from the USA what would I have to do to use it.

An unlocked phone is an unlocked phone. It's sold without a SIM card. You have to get a SIM card from the carrier you want to use, with an account set up, insert the SIM and activate the phone in iTunes.
Unlocked phones sold by the USA online Apple store can only be shipped to a US address and paid for by a US credit card
The only difference between an officially unlocked iPhone sold in the US and Australia is the warranty. The warranty is valid only in the country of sale. If you buy the phone in the US and return to Australia, if it breaks you have to ship it to a US resident who will get it to Apple and return it to you. It can't be shipped direct in either direction.

As long as you purchase the GSM (AT&T) version, not the Verizon version, it will not be carrier-locked.

does anyone have any solutions?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

May I order a computer in the USA and ship to Europe?

I am from the USA and had my mbp stolen in Spain. I'm here for another few weeks and need a computer. May I order a replacement in the USA and have it shipped to me here in Spain?

If you want to use it in France and your tied to an American carrier you can still use it but it will cost a lot!! But I think what you mean is can you use it of you buy it out of an apple store the answer is yes of you buy an iPhone out of a apple store any where in the world it's unlocked so you can use it anywhere buy just putting in a different sim for a network in the county you want to use it in, the iPhone 5 up has the capability of LTE but it depends on your carrier if they roll it out if they do it will work. I hope this works:)
