How to buy an Ipad outside united states

I have a friend who lives in the United Arab Emirates and they want to know if they will be able to use their credit card to purchase an Ipad and if they can send it to someone in the United States.

This should be possible, but red flags are usually raised by credit card companies when having a product purchased with a credit card shipped to another location besides the billing address for the credit card and especially to a location in another country. If your friend's credit card company allows this, I don't know why Apple wouldn't.

  • How to stop Iphone from adding United States to my contact list automatically

    I don't know why, but most of the time when i add a phone number to my Iphone 4 contact list, it automatically added United States to the country for Home, other and Work. It is so annoying. Anybody knows how to stop the phone from doing that? I have my regional settings set as Hong Kong, but it still does it.
    Thanks.

    thanks to both for replies. I continued and found the URL expired. client had no clue. so all is well, many thanks.

  • I have two questions. Are unlocked iPhone 5 available in apple stores in US? Can i use a factory unlocked iPhone 5 (GSM) anywhere outside united states?

    I have two questions. Are unlocked iphone 5 now available in Appple Stores in US? Can i use a factory unlocked iphone 5 (GSM) anywhere outside the United States?

    The Apple (Republic of Ireland) online store has the unlocked Iphones 4, 4S and 5 for sale. They are dear but worth it. I ordered the unlocked I phone 5 last week. That said, retail Apple Stores do and will not carry the Iphone line instore. They do however sell some accessories for all Iphones but thats as far as the Irish retail stores go.
    Its obvious to me that the Apple sales strategy for the US is different to the Irish one, so your retail stores may carry the unlocked versions at some point in the future.
    Sorry I could not be of more help..

  • Xfinity Connect app outside United States

    Is the Xfinity Connect app able to connect to wi-fi networks outside of the United States?; expressly the United Kingdom, France, and the Netherlands. 

    Well, the Xfinity Connect App is the emailApp, not the TV app. You are correct, that the Xfinity TV app will probably not work overseas. In some cases, it wont't allow you to watch programming if you are outside your own home network, depending on the programming.
    So if you are looking to watch TV shows while you are overseas, I think you will be out of luck, but you should be  able to get your email...

  • How to buy an Ipad in Orlando?

    I am form Brazil and I will be in Orlando in december and I want to buy an Ipad. I want to know if a I have to make a reservation to buy this Ipad or if one of the two stores of Orlando will have it avaiable. If I have to make a reservation please send me the email of those stores. Thank you very much!

    While I can't make guarantees, iPads seem to be in good supply now, so it's probably that you'll be able to walk into any Apple Store, Best Buy, or Walmart (or any of the other dealers that carry the iPad) and pick one up off the shelf. Of course with the holiday shopping season, supplies may run short. I don't believe that any Apple Store is taking reservations on iPad any more now, so you'll have to depend on luck.
    Regards.

  • Buying an iPhone with a Telephone company plan outside United States.

    I would like to know if there is any control of prices outside of US by Apple. I went to buy an Iphone in Venezuela with
    a telephone service plan, and I thought that it was like in the US, where one can pay a low price for the phone, and
    have a selected plan with a telehone company. I was in schock to find out that in the APPLE store to buy the Iphone was very
    expensive, and they told me to get it at the local Telephone company that provides service for Iphones. I went to iy thinking I can get it at a lower
    price with the service from the Telephone company. I found out that the LOW PRICE her for the Iphone, 16GB, was $1,200. I almost fainted to hear
    this! How can a company abuse the consumers this way? Is there any International Consumer Support? How can an IPhone cost so much
    in a country where salaries do not compare like salaries in the US? Who can buy such a phone at such a price? The irony of it is that
    it is cheaper than in the actual APPLE STORE. Is there any way that this can be controlled?

    Apple is not abusing you in any manner.  Outside of the US, the cost of iPhones are not subsidized, and you'll pay full retail price.  In Bangkok, all iPhones are unlocked, and the best one costs the equivalent of over $1000US.  However, all of the carrier-offered plans cost only 1/3rd of the plans in the US.  In the long run, it's cheaper to purchase and use an iPhone outside of the US.

  • ITunes account from outside UNITED STATES

    I live outside the US. I want to download some free apps (ie: Google Earth) but they are only available to iTunes US accounts.
    In Apple website, FAQS, it says one could create an iTunes account without providing a credit card, but when I try it, it's impossible as it keeps asking for a valid payment method (none option not available).
    Now please let me know how to do this, and be able to download GOOGLE EARTH for my iPod Touch 4th Gen.
    thanks

    Sorry, but you are not allowed to use any other country's iTunes Store unless you physically in that country. If the apps you want are not available in the App Store for your country, you will have to wait until such time as they do become available. You can contact the developers of the apps and urge them to release in your country, but there may be legal or copyright reasons why a given app may not be available where you live.
    Regards.

  • When will be able the iPhone 5's shipping to Colombia and anywhere outside United States?

    I mean, I want to buy the iPhone 5 contract-free, because here in Colombia any service provider sells it without a contract. So, what can I do?

    Make a trip to the US & you can purchase at any Apple store. Apple will not mail the phone outside of the US.

  • I am extremely unsatisfied with the service, as a matter of fact I live outside United State (Venezuela) and the IPhone that I have received is not working, did not receive operator service for the MOVISTAR system which is the one I am affiliated with?

    The Iphone 4 which Dadeland store gave me cannot be used in Venezuela, I felt as I am being stolen from Apple

  • How do I buy cds from united states

    I livve in sweden and want to buy cds from the united states over the itunes but it dont seem possible. Someone that knows how i can buy this music??

    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.
    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.
