How to buy stuff from iTunes USA?

I have a problem. I bought iPad2 from US. Presently I am in the US. I want to buy stuff from App store of USA. I don't have a US credit card. But I do have a legitamate US address. When I use my Indian credit card, it denies me access to US store and takes me to Indian store where choice is limited. I can't even redeem iTune gift card. Is there anyway out? I find it too restrictive.
Thanks

The App Store is part of the iTunes Store, so yes, they're the same. Apple and others sometime use only "App Store" rather than "iTunes Store" in those countries where Apple has not been able to obtain the rights to sell music, movies and other media.
As to using the Indian iTunes Store from the US, that is also not allowed per the iTunes Store terms of use. At this time there appears to be no technical barrier to such use, but it is stated in the terms for all the iTunes/App Stores that you agree not to use any country's iTunes/App Store from outside of that country.
Regards.

    you can't, unless you fulfill these requirements:
    From the itunes store terms of service:
    +to purchase from an iTunes Store in a particular country, you must have both a residential address and a billing address in that particular country. Items on any particular country's iTunes Store are available only for distribution to customers who use a credit card, debit card, iTunes Gift Certificate, or iTunes Gift Card issued in and for that country.+

  • How do I get to iTunes Switzerland from iTunes USA?

    A song I wish to buy is on iTunes Switzerland. I cannot find a link from iTunes USA to get to any international iTunes store. Any ideas how to get there?
    Thanks,
    bonk!

    Ok, this is a communiuty of like minded iTunes users right?
    Why don't we help eachother.
    I live in Switzerland and I would love to be able to download TV shows and music from original artists, not cover bands. You want music from the Swiss store. I live in Switzerland. If you can download some stuff for me in the US I will be more than happy to download the equivelant value of items from the Swiss store.
    The Music industry ******* and moans about lost revenue from pirated music downloads but we actually want to pay good money, hard earned CASH, so I think it is not only incredibly narrow minded and short sited of them to restrict the market in this way but also incredibly stupid on their part.
    Of course that's just my opinion. What happened to "the customer is always right" phylosophy?

    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.

    I recently changed my email address and want to change my Apple ID account to match. I have created a new Apple ID to match the new account but now I can't sign into iCloud on our phones or computer with the old Apple ID. I can't make any changes on iCloud on our phones because it directs me to the old account, which I can't sign into. I also can't sign me in on my computer to make any changes. Help!!! Now I have two addresses and can't access the one that directly affects my devices.

  • 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.

  • Buying TV shows from iTunes USA

    I live in Canada and I really want to download some shows from iTunes(USA). Am I able to do it just by using those pre-paid cards that they sell at Best Buy? Or do I have to give them a credit card number? Can someone help me???
    Dubular

    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 Music Store you wish to use. So in order to buy from the US iTunes Music Store, you must (as proof of residence) have either:
    a) a credit card issued by a bank in the US with a billing address also in the, or
    b) a mailing address for your residence in the US and a gift certificate or a prepaid card that was bought in the US.
    If you cannot fulfill one of these two sets of conditions, you will not be able to purchase from the US iTMS. The same applies to any other 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.

    I am living in New Caledonia, a French Territory. How can I purchase from iTunes (ex: USA, Australia) using my card, French Issued?

    You can only download content(other than podcast episodes) from a country's iTunes Store if you're in that country. For paid content, you also need to supply a payment method valid in that country.

  • Why does Apple keep on deduct my money from my debit card although I did not buy anything from iTunes?

    Guys. Apple had been deduct money from my bank and this is not once only and it's for few times. How can such thing happen when I didn't buy anything from iTunes but apple keep on deduct my money? I buy iPhone just to get scam money when I got my account?

    Right now, log on to apple.com, and change your password.
    either
    somebody else is using your ID to buy stuff -
    or have you bought any subscriptions that require monthly payments.
    Within a day or two of charging you anything, Apple sends you an email receipt with the detail.  Are you getting these?

  • How do I upgrade from ITunes 10.6.3 to ITunes 10.6.8?

    How do I upgrade from ITunes 10.6.3 to ITunes 10.6.8? Unable to find a download? I need to get to the point of ITunes 10.6.8 so I can then upgrade to ITunes 10.7 so that i can sync with my iphone 5.
    Am i on the right path or do i need to upgrade my software which is OS X version 10.5.8?
    Any help is appeciated.

    All these programs levels are a little confusing ..... you currently are on OS X 10.5.8 and want to upgrade to OS X 10.6.8, so you can download iTunes 7.
    You'll need to call the online Apple store, which in the US is 800-MY-APPLE, and buy OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, from the legacy products list. You'll use the DVD they send to install the new operating system, then run Software Update several times until there are no more updates. At that point, you'll be at 10.6.8 and can download iTunes 7.
    PS. Be sure and have a system backup before upgrading your operating system.

    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.

  • Can't rent or buy movies from iTunes

    Rant On:
    I am completely frustrated and angry about how iTunes is supposed to rent or allow purchase of movies.  I have not had one movie rental out of several tries that went successfully without having to contact Customer Service and complain.  I purchased "Looper" & watched it on my iTV over the holidays, and now it cannot be played on either my Mac Mini or loaded to my iPhone 5. 
    The movie appears in my iTunes Movie library on my Mac Mini.  When I tried dragging it to my iPhone, I got a strange error message that the movie was still "in the cloud" and wasn't available until I download it.  I can't see any way to accomplish this. Once I tried moving it the first time to my iPhone, it now won't let me move it again at all.
    If I go to the movie on iTunes from my iPhone, I see a "Download" button but the movie won't download since it's > 50 MB.  When I go to iTunes from my Mac Mini, it only offers me the choices to rent or buy the movie again. 
    Just incredibly frustrating.  I definitely DO NO RECOMMEND anyone trying to rent or buy movies from iTunes!!!

    Answers can only be as helpful as the details provided, and none have been given here.  What did you do to try to buy or rent something?  What happened when you tried?  Did you get an error?  If so what was it.  Just posting "did not work" is not going to get you very far.
