HT201272 I am a resident of Ecuador.I used to buy applications from the us apple store with an ecuadorian credit card and my address in Ecuador.
I am a resident of Ecuador with an ecuadorian credit card.I used to buy applications from the us apple store and updated them whenever updates were available with no problem at all. Since approximately a month,I am not able to purchase any new applicaton or update the old ones.Apple send me back to the ecauadorian apple store were there are almost no applications and where I can not even update the ones I have.
How can I solve this problem.? Before I was able too purchase applications anywhere in the world.This is absurd.
Can anybody help me please?
Regards,
Refurioso
You can't, you will need to be in the US with a US billing address (and credit card issued by a US bank) and iTunes account to be able to buy/download from the US store - the terms of use of the US store say (and other country's stores will be similar) :
The App and Book Services are available to you only in the United States, its territories, and possessions. You agree not to use or attempt to use the App and Book Services from outside these locations. Apple may use technologies to verify your compliance.
If there are apps that you want that aren't currently in the Ecuadorian store then you can try requesting that they be added, but ultimately it's the app developers that will have to grant Apple a license to sell them there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

Could you please tell me why as a Brit resident in Japan therefore having a billing address that is Japanese is forced to only get service from the Japanese online store? Is there not some way of allowing me to select movies and music to buy and download from other stores. Why do am i forced to try to nread Japanese when I have selected English as my language. The price for Downloads is no different and even if it was I am happy to pay. This also applies to Movie rental which is crazy and extremely restrictive. I a supposed GLOBAL community why does Apple do this.
You can buy ONLY from the itunes store of your country of residence (As proven by valid billing address of credit card) and ONLY while inside the borders of that country.
These are the terms of the itunes store. -
My songs purchaed from Itunes in the past no longer show up when i log into my Itunes account with my AppleID. I have always used the same Apple ID, but i suspect it relates to the fact that I changed the billing information from a US card, to a UK card and then back to a US card.
The only songs showing up are the ones from my most recent purchases, but none of my prior purchases.
Is there a way to add these back?Apple requires that you be a resident of the country of the store that you wish to use, supply a credit card issued by a bank in that country, with a verifiable billing address in that country.

Hello there,I delete my scruff application on the 8/05/13. Receipt N: 184052577343. And I was charged ammount of £ 16.99on the 15/05/13. I t's a Subscription Renewal. How can I stop it and get the refund of this ammount back on my account? Thank you!!
There are instructions on this page for managing and stopping auto-renewing subscriptions (deleting an app won't stop it) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4098
In terms of a refund, what does it say on the app's description page in the store (a lot say that refunds aren't given) ? But you can try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will refund or credit you : 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 -
Help - have an iTunes account on iPad for well over a year. Just bought iPhone 5 and I cannot purchase apps using my account. I am asked to verify my credit card and details but then it rejects them. They are still fine on the iPad. Any ideas?
I tried to contact support but they do not recognise my Thai phone number.
the Thai support site is all in Thai (and I neither read or write it).
All I want is a single email address that works - it must be quite a simple process.
I don't want to create another account with another credit card - life will just get seriously complicated then.
BTW my apple I'd is accepted for downloading free apps!!!First of all, you should always save you photos on computer like any other digital camera.
Backup on iCloud or iTunes only backup your Camera Roll. The other photos should be already on the computer.
Note: Photos are not saved in iTunes, it's only a conduit between your iPhone and your photo managing software on computer.
What computer do you have? -

When a song is purchased from the I-tunes store (and we used a gift card to do so), is it "recorded" to your device (an i-pod, in this case) and you own that copy, or is it just "rented" for your listening when you are able to access the I-tunes app (and therefore need wi-fi).???
I thought the same thing, however, our son did not have access to Wi-Fi in the car earlier and said that he could not listen to his song because he couldn't access the I-Tunes Store--? Then once we were in a location with Wi-Fi again and he could get to it, he was able to listen to the song...? We are new to all this and not sure that we "did it right" in the first place. Thanks for your help!

I'm visiting new York(USA) for work on Sunday, just wanted to know if i can buy an un locked iphone from the apple store or not, since i'm not a resident, to the record we don't have an apple store at my country.
You can buy an unlocked iPhone at any of the 5 Apple stores in NYC. All are open on Sunday. Note a couple of things, however:
US iPhone 5's will work on 3G in the rest of the world, but not on LTE because the US phones use different channels than other countries
Be sure you say "unlocked", not "no contract"
If it breaks it must be returned to a US store for repair, and if shipped to Apple it must be from and to a US address -

Any ideas about how I can be allowed to make purchases in itunes again? TIA
Expanding on what RG said, you need a credit card issued by a bank in the country in which you are and that has its billing address there. Since your credit card was issued by a US bank but has a Polish billing address, that card will not be usable in either the US or Polish iTunes Store. If you reside now in Poland, then as RG said you will need to get a card issued by a Polish bank with a Polish billing address. Or, if Apple offers prepaid iTunes cards in Poland (you cannot use cards issued in another country), you could use those.

I lost my iTunes library on my pc when the hard drive crashed. None of the data on the drive was recoverable and I did not have a backup either locally or on the cloud. Much of the music is from old vinyl and podcasts which are no longer available.
How can I get the music that resides on my ipod nano (4th generation) back onto the new hard drive on my pc.
I have been reluctant to install iTunes on the new hard drive out of fear that I will lose all the contents on the ipod if I try to synch to the new hard drive.
Help!No backup is a huge mistake.

I add all photos taken on camera roll to individual albums. However, once a photo is deleted from camera roll, it's also deleted from the albums where it also resides. Is there a way to delete or clear out the camera roll but keep them in albums?

As I was saying, I have an iPod Touch which I bought this Summer on August, and until recently it never gave me a problem.
I recently downloaded a "free" app (which means, it's partly free, so if I want it completely I should buy one of the "extensions" it has).
Well, today I was trying to buy an "extension" for an app. I did everything as per usual, but for some reason, there appears to be a message that I can't buy it with visa, when I've already bought other apps and things online with the same card, without a problem. Which should cross the option that the problem resides in the card (I also contacted with the bank and everything was as per usual with the card).
Also, a friend of mine has this same app and for this person everything went smoothly without a problem.
Does anyone of you know what is the problem or what should I do?The message says: "The payment method has been denied, try another method"
I'm living in the same country and city since I was born, so I don't think the location is the problem.
And yes, I paid with the card a meal in Burguer King today. And nothing more. -

I am a US resident but spend several months each year at my house in England. Is it possible for me to download UK iPad apps from the iTunes Store? Right now they seem to be restricted. Can I set up an alternate iTunes account using a UK credit card?
When you go to Starbucks, you'll need to first go to Settings on your iPad and choose Network. You'll see ATTWIFI as one of the available networks. When you click on that to select it, you should be immediately sent to AT&T's sign in page. You just need to check the box that says you agree to their terms and conditions and then hit the Connect button and you'll be online. One warning, however. If your Starbucks is anything like those in Manhattan, be prepared for really slow wifi. It can be a real pain waiting for pages to load sometimes.
