HT201272 How can I download from another countries iTunes store?

I'm not from America, I'm Canadian and I can't download a specific album.  When I transfer to the American store it tells me I'm not authorized to download from there. 
Anyone know how I can gain authorization?
Thanks,
-Krazy

You must be within the Country with a Valid Billing Address and Credit Card for that Country to use the iTunes Store of that Country...

  • How can I download from other countries iTunes Stores?

    I want to download from other countries iTunes stores but I have of course not a credit card for each of these countries and I can use my e-mail address only once (logically )to register. Any chance that I can download from i.E. the French store when I live in the UK?
    Thanks for helping me if possible

    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 you purchase something from another countries itune store and use it on the US itunes?, if you have a US store account, can you purchase something from another countries itune store and use it on the US itunes?

    Would like purchase movies and some tv shows from another countries itunes store, but not sure if they will work on my US itunes account.

    You cannot purchase from any other country's iTunes Store. The content owners will not allow cross-border sales.

  • HT1924 Is there a way to purchase from another countries itunes store ( other than your home country where your registered ) ?

    I am looking for a way to be able to purchase form the itunes UK store , currently I use the Australian one and tried changing my country but when I went to purchase the TV shows I wanted it said I was not authorised to use this particular itunes store? Are they not linked? Is there a way to be a more 'global ' itunes customer?
    Thanks

    No, you can currently only buy from your own country's store - to be able to buy content from another country's store you need a valid billing address in that country and be in that country when buying from it. You can try requesting that the content that you want to buy be added to the Australian store, but ultimately it's the content providers (in this case the TV companies) that will have to grant Apple a license to sell it there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

  • HT3497 Purchasing material from another countries' iTunes Store?

    There is a film I would like to rent, but it is only available in the United Kingdom store.  If I change countries on iTunes, will it allow me to rent or purchase material?  Thanks!

    No, to be able to buy (or rent) content from another country's store you need a valid billing address in that country and be in that country when buying (or renting) from it. You could try requesting that it be added to the US store, but ultimately it's the film studio that will have to grant Apple a license to have it for rent there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

  • Songs from other countries' iTunes stores

    Why are songs from other countries' iTunes stores not available for purchasing in the American iTunes store? I found a song that I had been looking for in the French iTunes store, but could not buy it. I was annoyed. Is there any way around it?

    In order to buy from a certain country's iTMS, you do need
    either: a CC with a billing address in that country
    or: an address in that country plus a prepaid card/gift voucher issued by iTMS in that country.
    If you don't meet one of this conditions, there is no solution for you.
    -sorry but the copyright holders wanted it that way; it's their decision to offer a certain track in a certain country or not to offer it.
    Tip; This question on how to buy from another country is asked several times a week in the forums. In the future, I would suggest you do a search on your issue to see, if it has already been answered, that way you don't have to wait quite a long time for a response.

    Apple does not offer the option to gift individual books at this time. However, you can always send an iTunes Gift or an iTunes Gift Card to the recipient:
