How To Buy Songs From Another Country

My "home account" is in Switzerland.
As an "enka" fan, however, I would like to buy songs from the Japanese iTunes Store.
Is this possible, e.g., by creating a second account? If not, what do I have to do?

In order to purchase in the Japan store, you would have to have a credit card with a billing address in Japan.

    If you can't find what you want in your local ibookstore, the best fix is normally to look in the other ebook stores which also provide free ereader apps for your device, such as Kindle, Nook, Kobo, Googlebooks, Sony.

  • Buying music from another country

    How do I purchase music from another country (Ireland) It wouldn't take my login. If I got into it would it allow me to purchase music and will it play in the US.

    Just go to the store's website and buy tracks the normal way. Almost all online music download stores will sell you music no matter where you live. The only exceptions are the stores that sell major label music, e.g. the iTunes Store and Amazon, which restrict by country of residence.
    If I got into it would it allow me to purchase music and will it play in the US.
    Make sure the music you are buying is in MP3 format. MP3 is a universal format and plays the same anywhere.

  • DLing songs from another Country?

    Is it at all possible to buy songs from itunes in another country? I want songs that are only available in NZ and OZ, but it's not letting me do it? Thanks

    This has been covered here literally dozens of times, but once again: the content owners do not allow cross-border sales from any of the legal download stores. You must therefore have legal residence in the country of the iTunes Store you wish to use. So in order to buy from another country's iTunes Store, you must (as proof of residence) have either:
    a) a credit card issued by a bank in that country with a billing address also in that country, or
    b) a mailing address for your residence 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, again, 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.

  • Buying content from another country.

    I want to buy audiobooks and music from Italy, listen to Italian podcasts. Is there a good way to go about doing this? I tried changing my country preferences to Italy but it will not allow you to do it. It wants an Italian address. Also it will not allow you to purchase with an American bank account, so it will not even allow me access to free downloads. Does anyone know of a way around these hurtles?

    Short answer, no. In order to purchase from another country's store, the copyright holders for content require that you have a credit card with a billing address in that country. These are requirements set by copyright holders on Apple as the copyright holders do not care for cross-border sales.
    Just a suggestion as a new poster, you might want to try the "search" window in the upper right, to see if your question may have been asked previously, that way you don't have to wait for someone to come along with an answer. For example, this question on how to buy from another country's store is asked & answered literally dozens of times per week in both the Windows & Mac forums.

  • How to buy songs from Japan iTunes store?

    I am currently in the US. Is it possible to buy songs from the Japan iTunes store?

    No.  The iTunes Store in a country is intended for use only by that country's residents, and only while they are in the country. To use the iTunes Store in a country you need a credit card (or other card type if acceptable in a country) issued in that country, billed to an address in that country, and also be physically present in that country when using the store. You are also restricted to waiting 90 days between country changes. E.g., "The iTunes Service is available to you only in the United States, its territories, and possessions. You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Service from outside these locations. Apple may use technologies to verify your compliance." - http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/us/terms.html#SERVICEonly use the US Store.

  • Buy a song from another country's itunes

    I'm an American currently in Australia and I would like to buy a song that is not offered in the US itunes store but is for the Australian itunes store. I am trying to download it but itunes says it is unavailable to me. I am in Australia, so why can't I buy it from the Australian store? What can I do to fix this?
    Thanks

    I only want one song so if I were to buy an itunes gift card here in Australia, when I return to the US I wouldn't be able to use it in the US itunes store?
    Correct. Your credit balance would not be transferrable to another country's iTunes Store, and you would not (by the terms of use) be able to continue to use the Australian iTunes Store. So it's probably not practical for a single song. Either get someone with an Australian iTunes Store account to gift you the song, or pick it up on CD (which is expensive for a single song, but less expensive than buying an entire gift card for just one track).
    Regards.

  • Purchase Song from Another Country?

    I was disappointed that I couldn't find the song "Hips Don't Lie" by Shikira on the US iTunes site. However after searching the web for a little while the iPod Reporter states that it is on the iTunes Dutch site - and sure enough it was. Now, once I got transfered to the site I was not authorized to purchase from the site. Does anyone know how to go about getting authorized to purchase? Or just getting this darn song from iTunes to begin with?
    Thanks!

    You should be able to just drag the track to the iTunes window. Make sure that the option for "copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library" is set in the iTunes Advanced preferences and it should add it and put a copy where it needs to go in the iTunes Music folder.

  • HT201209 How do I download gifted songs from another country?

    Living in Australia, I received a wonderful gift of tunes from a friend in USA, who used a US credit card etc and his US iTunes account.
    But iTubes in Australia refuses to deliver them!
    How do I redeem my gift? Or how does my friend get e refund for a gift that Apple doesn't deliver?

    You won't be able to redeem it.
    He could try resending it to somebody who is in the US with a US iTunes account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1541
    Or, and if he's been charged, then he can try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will credit or refund him : 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

  • Purchasing songs from another country.

    I have found songs that I am interested in on the France and UK iTunes sites. The transaction will not go through. How might I purchase these songs that are not available on the USA iTunes site?

    You either need to purchase from a certain country's iTMS:
    #1: A CC with a billing address in that certain country
    or
    #2: A Prepaid card/gift voucher issued in that certain country + an address there
    If you don't meet of of this conditions there is "no go" - that's no decision made by Apple but by the big record companies.

  • Who knows how to get applications from another country?

    Hey there, I have a complicated question!
    I am dutch, and trying to buy some apps in the app store in Holland.
    But...I'm living in French and I have an account witch allows me only to buy in the french app store and to connect me to the french itunes account. Just changing the country and using the same account name hasn't resolved the problem yet. I get the same message saying that I can only shop in the french app store!
    Hopefully one of you smart guys got an answer for me ?!
    Greetings Jan Lars

    You can ONLY buy from the itunes store of your country of residence ( proven by the valid billing address on your credit card) AND ONLY while inside the borders of that country.

  • Gift song from another country

    I live in the US and my friend lives in Canada.  She purchased an album on itunes Canada (with her Canadian credit card) and sent it to me as a gift.  I am unable to redeem this gift...it says that I must be in Canada.  How can I get around this?  Is it impossible to gift songs between countries?

    1. You can't.
    2. It's impossible to do this through iTunes, but can be done with an international cheque or other way of transferring money directly.

  • Buying iPad from another country

    I want to order an iPad with wifi + 3G at Appel's website .
    I live in Israel but I have a US address .
    Can I order the iPad ( AT&T version ) without Monthly payment to AT&T  ?
    Thanks

    There is no committment to paying AT&T when you order the AT&T iPad version. However, not only will you need a US address to ship it to, but also a US credit card (I believe).
