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

  • 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.

    Connect the iPod to your computer and select it on the left-hand sidebar of your computer's iTunes (if you have iTunes 11 on your computer then you can enable the sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), and then on the right-hand side you can use the Music tab to select which of your music that you want on the iPod.

    My slide presentation (with songs) is done. How can I change one song from another?

    Do you still have your Aperture Slideshow project? Then open the slideshow and select the one of the green audio file clips in the film strip that you want to replace. Press the "delete" key and drag another audio file from the Media Browser directly onto the slide, where the sound should start.

  • 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.

  • How can I watch apple tv from another country?

    How can I watch apple tv from another coutry?

    I live in country A and when I log on to the itunes store I´m automatically connected to that country´s store.But I know that certain films I would like to rent are possible to rent in the US Itunes store. To rent from the US store you have to register an apple id in that store and to do that you have to have a valid billing adress within the US and a valid credit card from the US. Is there any other way I can connect to the US Itunes store from another country?

  • How do i download free songs from itunes ? please help

    how to i download sogs from itunes ?

    Just like you do with music that cost money.  You purchase the music via iTunes but you do not get charged.  You do still need a valid payment method even for free music.

  • 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.

  • How can i download to iphone from another one of my computers itunes?

    I just put itunes on my work PC. how can i download stuff to my iphone? I have my iphone connected to my work PC and it wont let my drag tracks to my iphone.

    You don't. The iPhone can only sync media with ONE computer. If you try to sync with another, it will first erase media already on it.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • How can I get a refund from another country that does not have an Apple Store?

    While going to the US for the summer, I went to the San Francisco Apple Store.
    I saw the Apple Gift Cards, and I was wondering if they would work on my Taiwan Apple ID, so I bought a $25 gift card and a 4 cards bundle pack each with $10 inside.
    But then now, coming back to Taiwan, I realised the gift cards was only valid for US users so I asked for support from Apple
    and this is what they replied:
    I understand that you are unable to redeem the gift card to your account, the card purchased in another country. I know you must be eager to get this issue resolved at the earliest. I can do my best to help you.
    Jonathan, I'm sorry to inform you that, iTunes Gift Cards are only redeemable in the iTunes Store for the country that is listed on the back of the card. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
    This did not help me at all...
    There is only resellers in Taiwan, so there is no way I could get a refund from Taiwan
    so what should I do in order to get my money back?
    Or in other ways, an exchange upon other Apple products?

    I have now got an openoffice which I got from the internet. But the main thing is I paid £20.99 for this app and It is irriatting that the people who work for apple havent got back to me when I first reported a problem. I reported to them again and hoping that they will eventually get back to me.
