How do I purchase from a different iTunes store with the same Apple ID ?

I'm registered with the Australian iTunes store but the song I want is available only on the Norwegian iTunes store.
Clicking the iTunes track link from the artist's website prompts me to change to the Norwegian store, but after I do that and try to download the song it tells me that the logon details are valid only for the Australian store and invites me to register for the Norwegian one.
So, I go through the registration process for the Norwegian store only to be advised by iTunes at the last minute that "The email address you entered is already being used for an Apple Account. If it is yours, you can cancel and Sign In using that Apple Account", which of course contradicts what it told me earlier.
iTunes tests my patience at the best of times, but this seems to be deliberately and unnecessarily complex - I have an Apple ID and they have already got my payment details so what is the problem ?

This is crazy. So instead of the artist getting my 12.00Kr payment for the track, the only choice I have is to acquire it by unofficial means - it's not released here and probably never will be.
Thanks for the replies.

Can you have different accounts (meaning different passwords, different countries/store) with the same apple ID (only one e-mail address)?

thank you for your reply, it is not very fair from apple, since for not using your credit card, you need to create a new account and if you do not have multiple e-mail working , you are stuck! thanks anyway

M Parker,
Yes, since you are trying to keep things separate, that is exactly what you would do.

Is there a way of shifting purchases from one account to another with the same billing information, so that I don't lose purchases made by my iPhone when I sync?

The AOL address I was using for my iTunes account has been deleted due to me not signing in for awhile and I'm afraid that I will lose all of my purchases made from my iphone when I sync it into iTunes for a much needed update and so that I can (hopefully) transfer its data to my new iPhone 4...
The only time I have synced my current iPhone was when I activated it but since then I have not been able to sync with my computer and now have a new one.
Sorry about the garbled way this is written but I desperately need help:
1, Is there a way of shifting purchases from one account to another with the same billing information?
Or
2, is there a way of recovering my old account and changing the details?
Any other help is greatly appreciated
Thom

You don't need to access your e-mail account, just get into your Apple account and change the e-mail address. If you can't access your Apple account, then you have a bigger issue to contend with.

How do I set up two different Itunes accounts on the same computer

I have one PC laptop and my daughter and I both have IPhone 4's. I want to sync both phones using the same computer but want totally different accounts so that I don't have her music, aps, etc and vice versa. I've tried this many many times and can never seem to get it right. If I sign out of my ITunes account and then plug her phone into my computer, it syncs my stuff onto her phone. HELP!

First thing you need to do is disable auto syncing in iTunes. This is from Edit>Preferences>Devices>Prevent iPods, etc.
Unfortunately, the only thing you can do is set up separate log in accounts for the laptop. This will allow you to have iTunes in each log in and they can have different content. iTunes cannot have separate content with the same log in and different Apple ID, but you can manage two phones with the same iTunes account. See if any of the information in this support document will help you http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1495 but the best solution is separate computer log in.

HT4865 How to prevent texted contacts, which havent been saved from showing on another phone with the same Apple ID?

Either disable iMessage on your wife's phone or set it up with a unique Apple ID.

Using different iCloud accounts with the same apple iD

My mom, brother, and I all use the same apple ID so we can all buy songs off of the same credit card. I have my iPhone and I also just got a Mac. My brother has his iPhone and an iPad and my mom just has her phone. We all listen to different music. Is there a way that I can set up an iCloud account for my phone and Mac so that I just have MY music, not my brother's and mom's? If so, how? I would like to be able to download a song on my phone and have it appear on my iTunes on my Mac.

The iCloud account is not what you are using to purchase and download music. That is for your backup and other things. The Apple ID that you are sharing is for music. If you want your own music, then you need to set up your own Apple ID account and sign into that in the iTunes store.

HT201303 How can I have my iPhone and my iPad with the same Apple ID?

I recently bought an iPad and I want to have it on the same Apple ID that I currently have on my iPhone 5. I want to be able to play my current game (Boombeach), which I started on my iPhone5, on my new iPad. Can anyone help with these problems?

Backup your iPhone 5 to iCloud or iTune and restore backup to iPad.

How can you use music from a different itunes account on the same iphone

i bought my iphone 4s and had an apple id. then changed my apple id, but lost my music on my phone. can i keep music on my phone from another apple id, itunes?

Paid content purchased from the itunes store is always assigned to a single apple id. You will be unable to use the purchased content on another apple id.
Next time you change your apple id instead of creating an entire new apple id just change the primary email address to the email you would like to use.
e.g. current apple id is [email protected] but you want to change it. what you do is:
- go to appleid.apple.com
- select manage apple id
- sign in
From here what you want to do is change/edit your current primary email which in this case is [email protected] Simply select edit and enter the new email you would like as your apple id. Lastly you will be sent a verification email to verify the email addres and TADA your done.

Is it possible to have 2 accounts in itunes store with the same credit card number?

Just found out today that my credit card was used fraudulently worth $177.78 in ITUNES.
When i checked my itunes account, no such purchases were reflected.
So this means that the said purchase was made on another account,
How could this be possible?

Hi...
Contact your credit card company and ask that they block any further charges from Apple until the matter is resolved.
And if you have not already done so, change your Apple ID password ASAP > How to change your Apple ID password
And you can report the problem to Apple here > Apple - Support - iTunes Store - Contact Us

TS1646 Can I have an ITunes account at more than one store (ie US and UK) with the same Apple ID or do I need a second one? Thanks

I spend time in both the US and the UK and sometimes not all apps are available in the US store which is my primary account. Can I set up a second account at the UK store with the same Apple ID?

You'll need to set up a second account with a different Apple ID. You cannot use a single Apple ID in two different iTunes Stores at the same time.
Regards.

I purchased songs from 2 different computers using itunes with the same apple id. I had 1 iPod I used for these but I just recently got an iPhone and I was wondering why it wasn't letting me put my purchased songs on my iPhone?

You can transfer iTunes content from an iTunes library on a single computer only.
Since these songs were purchased with the same iTunes account, you can download the song that is not in your iTunes library on the computer you will be syncing your iPhone with. Or you can download the song or songs direct on your iPhone.

- Disable autosyncing: go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and check the box that says "Prevent iPods ...syncing">

If I create a new iTunes account for the German itunes store, what happened with my previous purchases? Do they remain on my iPhone and my Mac's iTunes?
Nothing will happen to your existing purchases. Your computer will remain authorized - you can authorize a single computer to up to five iTunes Store accounts - and the apps and content will remain in place.
Can I switch from one acount to the other every time I want to update an application or purchase a new one?
As long as you're in the relevant country, yes. Again, the terms of use say that you agree not to even attempt to use an iTunes Store from outside of its country.
Regards.
