How do i purchase music from US itunes if im from UK?

I want to buy a single from the US itunes as it isnt available in the UK but it wont let me! it re-directs me to itunes UK but is isnt in the library. is there any way of getting it from the US site??

Jennifer, this question is answered & discussed, several times a week in the forums. This not Apple's fault. The record companies set up the rules when they contract with Apple. Apple would love to sell you whatever music you want from anywhere, the record companies are the one's who have made the "silly rules." Welcome to discussions! If you want a better explanation, please read the link I posted in my first post.

  • How to transfer purchased music from iTunes

    Can anyone tell me how to transfer purchased music from iTunes to my iPod without first downloading to a CD?

    If you are using the latest version of iTunes (4.6), then you need to make sure your ipod software is up to date also.
    When you have done this, authorize your music in iTunes by playing a few seconds of it, and it should transfer by whatever synching method you choose.

    If you have done all this and still can't transfer it, post back with more info about what is happening.
    EDIT.
    Grrrr......must learn to type faster!

    How can I purchase music from itunes in another country?

    You can't - the Terms of Use of the stores state that you can only buy from the country that you are in (e.g. due to licensing/distribution terms etc)

  • Topic: How to transfer purchased music from iTunes

    Since the item <Topic: How to transfer purchased music from iTunes> is "locked" (whatever that means - typically, I got an error message when I clicked on the link!!) - I would like to state that despite downloading the iPod updater to deal with this problem, I cannot update my iPod because "the updater does not have a firmware image". I deeply resent not being able to move 100 tracks I have bought and paid for with my hard-earned money to my iPod. I trust that Apple will sort out this mess forthwith.

    I have now solved this problem (almost by accident...).
    Unfortunately, before you can update the iPod software on the older iPods you have to first do a Restore Factory Settings from the iPod updater (otherwise "updater cannot find firmware image'). Let the 'Restore' process run right through (it ends when the iPod fully reboots). You can then run the iPod software updater to Update from iPod 2.2 to 2.3 software, but afterwards you have to recopy all your songs from iTunes into the now empty iPod. I reloaded my iPod last night, and it took about 20-30mins using firewire for c.2400 songs. It worked for me, anyway. And the interface with iTunes is an improvement. Could have done without all the wailing and gnashing of teeth, though. Thank you, Apple.

  • How do I purchase music from another country?

    How do I purchase music from another country?
    For example I'm from Canada and I wanted to purchase music only available from itunes in England.
    itunes will not let me buy music only available in other countries.
    Is there a way around this? can I change my profile somehow?
    I really wanted to get the Nicola Roberts album.
    Thank you

    This is not possible...

  • How do i purchase music from a country other than the one i'm in

    i live in the usa and i want to purchase music form the greese itunes store. I don't have a credit card registered in greece. Is it possible to purchase and download from a different country? How do I do it? or how do i contact apple to ask this specific question/
    thanks

    This question is asked frequently so I'll just quote the most succinct 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.
    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.

  • How to sync purchased music from an iPhone without SIM card?

    Hello,
    I have an iPhone 3GS, which I used, till I got a new iPhone 4.
    Meanwhile it was working for my girlfriend as "iPodtouch". Yesterday I was able to have my cellular network provider to remove the sim lock, so that the iPhone 3GS is now again able to be used as cell phone.
    Meanwhile my girlfriend purchased music at iTunes. I want to sync the iPhone 3GS to iTunes, but it always say "no sim card installed" The only way wold be to go thru the lock free procedure to sync, but that will delete all content on that phone. (including the purchased music)
    My question now is:
    How can I sync an iPhone 3GS to iTunes, without the SIM card installed?
    Thank you for your trouble.
    Henning

    Open itunes.
    Connect iphone.
    Look at the top of your computer screen for the word "File" .  Click it.
    Then click "Transfer Purchases"
