How can I buy music again?

I had a problem with my iPod and had to have it restored at an Apple store. Now if I try to by a song from iTunes on the iPod I get this message: A valid address is necessary to purchase using store credit.
I have synched the iPod while signed into the store in iTunes but that didn't fix the problem.
How can I fix this to buy music from the iPod?
Thanks.

Well, it turned out the problems was with my address. Apparently after four years of having an account for my iPods, Apple decided that a PO Box was not a valid address. They must have done this quite recently. When I did an experiment of adding my street address the problem cleared up, even though the post office won't deliver mail to a street address in my small Rocky Mountain town of 287 people. Of course they never told me that they changed their address policy other than through the cryptic message.
Thanks for the help.

  • How can I buy music from iTunes?

    How can I buy music from Itunes , when I have czech Itunes  and there is no offer itunes store for buying music. Could somebody express me, why is impossible for czech itunes to buy music or videos :-(((

    If Apple doesn't have an iTunes store available in your country, you can't purchase anything from the iTunes store. In order to purchase content from the iTunes store available in another country, you must have a credit card or payment method with a billing address in that country.

    How to reset your Apple ID security questions
    Go to appleid.apple.com and click on the blue button that says 'Manage Your Apple ID'.
    Log in with your Apple ID and password. If you have forgotten your Apple ID password, go to iforgot.apple.com first to reset your password with a password recovery email.
    Go to the Password & Security section on the left side. Then underneath the security questions click on the link that says 'Forgot your answers? Send reset security info email to [email]'.  This will generate an automated e-mail that will allow you to reset your security questions. 
    If that doesn't work, or  there is no rescue email link available, then you will need assistance from Apple Account Security. Follow this procedure:
    click on 'Temporary Support PIN' that is in the bottom left side, and generate a 4-digit PIN for the Apple Account Security Advisor you will be contacting later. 
    Next, go to getsupport.apple.com. If you see a message that says 'There are no products registered to this Apple ID, simply click on 'See all products and services'.
    Choose 'More Products & Services', then 'Apple ID'.
    A new page will open.  Choose 'Other Apple ID Topics', then 'Forgotten Apple ID Security Questions'.
    Click the blue 'Continue' button.
    Select the contact option that suits your needs best.

  • How can I buy music?

    I have redeemed by gift card. I click on buy to certain songs. I have to sign in again, and then it asks for credit card information, when at the top of the page it says $25.00. I am really confused. I can't purchase music. How do i fix this problem?

    I think it has more to do with licensing. You can only buy music from the store for your country. Unfortunately, if your country doesn't have a store yet, because they are trying to do everything legally, you can't buy anything.
    Even though I'm in the US and can buy from the US iTunes store, I can't buy anything that is on a different store. So, for example, I can browse the Japan store, and there may be a lot of things that I want to buy, but I'm not allowed to because I don't have a Japan billing address.
    I asked their support when the Japan store was opened why I couldn't buy from it, and that-the legality and licensing concerns-is basically the answer that I got.

    How can I buy songs with my visa card in Nigeria

    Itunes verifies your account using your billing info.
    If your credit shows in the top right side of the itunes store, then it will take it from that balance.

    If you do not have a German credit card and billing address there is nothing that you can do to purchase music. The record labels forbid cross border sales.

  • How can i buy music/movies from us chart?

    I am an Indian user, i am unable to download music/movie from US app store? why? It says ur id is not valid? How can i download from US store? Pls help

    The terms of use of the stores state that in order to buy from a particular country's store that you need to have an iTunes account in that country and physically be in that country (due to things such as licensing/distribution deals) - so if you are in India then you can only buy from the Indian iTunes store.

  • How can u buy music from a different country's store?

  • How can I buy music without iTunes software?

    Is there a way to buy music from the iTunes store without iTunes software?

    I don't understand why they force users to install their software.
    Because most record companies require the iTunes Store to have copy protection and that requires software to process and verify, i.e. iTunes.
    iTunes works fine for many, many thousands of users, so perhaps if you would start a thread with details as to any problems you're experiencing (the only thread I see gives very few details and was apparently abandoned), someone may be able to help you sort them out. Otherwise, you'll have to look for some other source of music that's legal in Germany.

  • Computer crashed, how can I buy music without a computer itunes?

    I synced it with another computer but it won't allow purchases to be moved to the ipod -- they are stuck in the iTunes.  I did authorize the computer but that is only one way.. I went into the iTunes Store, signed in with my account but it downloaded the songs into the itunes which cannot be moved to my ipod.  Help!  I am not buying a new computer for a month!

    Don't understand your issue.
    Your library is on a computer?
