HT1311 apple id change country

I've moved countries and I need to update my appleID so it works in the UK. Please help.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Click on your account name in the top right corner of the iTunes store in the iTunes application on your computer, enter your password and click the "view account" button. Navigate to the Apple ID summary where you have the option to "change country or region".
In order to change your location, you will need a credit card registered to an address in the location you are trying to change to.
You cannot change your location if you have credit on your account, if you are unable to spend your credit and leave a balance of zero, contact Apple, which you can do through iTunes Store Support.

  • "Change country" button not working on iPad mini

    I need to change my apple ID's country on my ipadmini. I already tried tapping settings>itunes and appstore>view apple ID>change country, but no country list is displayed at all to choose from. Does anyone know of an alternative method?

    Hi there, I've just read that 1) you need to have zero credit balance 2) you need to have valid payment method for new country beforehand....and that if you don't have zero credit balance, you need to contact iTunes support for assistance. Sorry, first time ever replying and not sure if I've uploaded link correctly below! Good luck! :)

  • Change country problems

    I recently moved from the UK to Australia and need to change the country/region of my appstore id to reflect this. However when I go into the apple id, change country or region I click the button to make the change, the phone communicates for a moment but no selection list appears so I cannot select Australia as my country and carry on to enter payment details.
    Could this be related to the fact that my UK card is no longer active and the appstore is waiting for a valid card before I can access to change the region and payment details? If so its seems like I'm stuck in a catch 22. This is starting to affect my business as I am beginning to not be able to update and use business apps because of this issue.
    Please help!

    Could very well be. Get an iTunes gift card, redeem that, change your credit card to "none". See if doing that fixes things.

  • Change country on Iphone

    Hi,
    I have moved to another country and want to change the app store country. I have read that I need to change the country of my Apple Id which is done by going to settings->App store->Apple Id->change country/region. which is all fine, but when I click on the button "Change country/region" nothing happens.
    Any advice?

    You also need to update your credit card info for the new country.
    Credit card must also be from the country you moved to.

  • Change country - same Apple ID

    There are four things that I do not understand about the problems faced when changing countries (France to the UK in my case) with the same Apple ID.
    1. I understand from this site and others that I am obliged to repurchase my apps.
    Why? - when I move, I don't leave everything behind (furniture etc) and repurchase?
    2. I can view all my previous purchases in the iTunes Store for my iOS devices: when updates are downloaded, I notice the purchase date changes to the update date. So it seems that I CAN take my apps with me after all (... though I assume if I were to delete one of them I would have to repurchase? Is that how it works?)
    3. The above does not apply to the Mac App Store: only purchases made AFTER I changed countries show up.
    4. In the Mac App Store, older apps not in my purchase list sometimes won't update: my Mac says that an update is available but the 'install' it is greyed out. But other older apps update just fine.
    I do not understand what is going on and would appreciate some advice, please:
    A. why is there no general refund policy if the apps won't update when I change country? Do I have to contact each app provider and ask them for a refund in turn?
    B. does anyone know which apps upgrade OK and which ones don't under the cirtcumstances described? - is there any general rule to tell me?
    Thanks in advance for your help,
    Nick

    Go to this link:

    Hope this helps!

  • Changed country on Apple ID, now unable to buy from App Store!

    Hi all,
    As many other users, I was using multiple Apple IDs for a long time, confused about which on to use when and so on.
    I decided to tidy myself up, by focusing on one Apple ID and to use for all programs, and updating my correct address and facts and so on.
    When I first created this Apple ID I lived in Hong Kong, and now I wanted to change the address to my Swedish one.
    After doing so, the country is changed when I log in to my Apple ID, but not when I try to use App Store. It still recommends me the Hong Kongese software and apps on hot lists and top lists.
    Worse still, I have to put in my payment info again. When entering the same Visa card as I used before, App Store will say:
    The payment card you entered is not valid in Hong Kong. Please provide a valid payment card for Hong Kong.
    Hence, by changing country for my Apple ID, I am effectively banned from using both App Store and iTunes Store.
    How is this? Any thoughts on what to do?
    (It was over 24 hours since I changed the information, so it should have been registred/updated by now)

    Thanks a lot. I didn't know where to change this info, and found it to be in App Store --> Store --> View my account.
    It can not be done by logging in at one's Apple ID in a web browser, which is a bit strange.

  • Accessing US store from non US teritory: instead of disabling ID, Apple should warn us to change country then honor our pass purchases

    Apple lately had disabled many its iTunes US stores for accessing the store while they are not in US teritory.  This practice had made its customers unable to access the iTunes iCloud, upgrading the apps both for the apps for the iOS or the software that we purchased for our Mac through the App Store.  In my case, I lost $1000+ of my digital assets suddenly.
    Here are my suggestion for Apple for its customer who are accessing US store from Outside US:
    AA. "Disalowing New Purchase" With the ability of looking thru IP address when we plan to purchase, Apple should warn any new purchase from US customer who are not in US at the time of new purchases.
    BB. "Ask the customer to change country in the setting" then they can purchase any available items for that country.  But still their past purchased should be honored.
    I hope Apple give solution instead penalizing suddenly its paying customers.

    Any help how can i change country region ?

    Contact iTunes support and ask them to delete the amount left in the account.
    That money will be lost and will not transfer to a new country's App Store.
    Once iTunes support has deleted the remaining funds, yo should be able to
    change the AppStore you use.

  • Change country from my account of Apple id

    how to change the country in my account Apple id From USA to Canada?

    Before you change country make sure you have downloaded and backed up any purchases from your previous country's store.  You will not be able to re-download them again once you change countries and it won't be easy to change countries to the previous one once you lose your payment method for the former country (as well as a wait period).  As long as you have them on your computer you will be okay.

  • What happens to my purchased Apps, in case, I change country of my Apple ID.

    While purchasing Apps from Store a message shows up " Not available in Emirati Store. Change to US Store for Purchase".Can I make purchase by changing country without impacting the earlier purchased Apps?

    My question was two fold. I apologize for elaborating it properly -
    The second part is " How do I purchase Apps from Store when I change my resident country and then what happens to already purchased Apps? Do I need to create a new Apple ID for a different country to purchase Apps and hope my earlier purchase is not impacted by this process."

    Hi Sockatume,
    Few days back I wanted to download BBM for iPhone to which I was diverted to New Zealand App Store automatically.
    So whenever I tried to download apps from the AppStore it said, I wasn't in the region which I should be that is India and being in different region I can't download any app.
    So I followed the instructions as above. After updating the region and the proceeding pages of the instruction. There was a deduction of money.
    I didn't buy any gift card or anything neither I went to that page.
