HT5085 iTunes Store Country Limitation in iTunes Match
I have just bought a one year subscription to iTunes Match.
I am based in UAE and have access to the Apple AE iTunes Store and not to any content on the US Store.
My question is, suppose I upload a song that is available in iTunes Store US, will iTunes Match updated it for me from that Library or will the update be limited only to the local store items.
Thanks.

In our country we dont have iTune Store if i create iTunes accounts in another country (example UK) can i use my local bank credit card??
No, you need to be in a country and have a valid billing address in that country to be able to use a country's store. If there isn't an iTunes store in your country then unfortunately you won't be able to buy any content from iTunes.

Hey, im living on Mexico and i want to change my itunes store country that it is actually from United States but when i try to change it it appears me an error because i got 92 cents thats ridicoulos, i want to change it to Mexico itunes store so i can purchase gift cards from Mexico.
For real apple you should make a progam or something that people like me that want to change country of their apple IDS that have any amount of money it should go for charity, it would be a great idea so you are not only helping the costumers like me you are also helping the poor people.
sorry for my bad english, its not my native lenguage.
Thank you for your time.Vilenueve,
You can submit a suggestion to Apple by using the Feedback page:

ITunes Store country change - error 5002
this is driving me crazy....
I m trying to change iTunes Store country and every time I go through the process (on macbook air, iphone 6 and iPad mini...always the same result), I get the same message....'cant connect to iTunes Store', 'We could not complete your iTunes Store request. An unknown error occurred (5002)'.
I have tried everything I could think of and everything I have seen online as possible solution - nothing works. i tried with the old country billing address and card details still in my profile, as well as with the new country billing address and card details. makes no difference.
need some help please!!

HT1311 Changing Itunes Store country
I am changing Itunes Store country and Itunes won't let me until I spend the 49 cents left in my account. What do I do?
Contact iTunes Customer Service and request assistance.

I have an Apple TV 3 and have just signed up to iTunes Match. However there is no toggle in the Apple TV settings (I've looked in iTunes store) to turn on iTunes Match.
There would normally be more than 4.
If AppleTV does not 'see' the internet you get Settings and Computers alone.
I'm in UK too - there have been some reported outages of Apple services today globally.
First thing I would do here is unpower and restart AppleTV and also maybe your router.
I'll check mine to see if music is still listed.

I want to change from the US iTunes store to the Australian iTunes store but i have to spend all of my iTunes credit first, what the **** will I spend 60 cents on? Should I have purchased unwanted music to the exact value to change country? Why cant I just agree to wipe the credit? it's less than one dollar. Why can't I just transfer it at going market rates (or even cent for cent) when it is only such a small amount and I would make a profit? I don't want to start another iTunes account, it will only lead to problems with what I have already purchased.
You cannot.
You cannot use another countrys itunes store.
You must be physically locates inside the borders of a country to use that countrys itunes store and a credit card issued in that country with a valid billing address in that country.
The owners of the distribution rights of movies/music/etc differ by country. These distributors decide who can sell their content in that country.
Buy from another source if your countrys itunes store does not carry somehting that you want. -
Is there a way to transfer iTunes Store purchases or an iTunes library from one user to another?
Historically, I have my own laptop and my 8 year old daughter has a laptop as well. I also have an iPad and iPhone. In the past, I have managed all devices with the same apple ID, and used my laptop as the main library, storing all music, apps, video, etc. I then just selectively copied things to the other authorized devices, so my daughter's laptop has a copy of her music under my apple ID. Now she has her own iPod touch, so I would live to move her music and apps to her own iTunes library with a name I create for her on her laptop and iPod.
Is this possible without having to repurchase all of her media?Welcome to AD!
You can try these Apple directions
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1329
Or buy a 3rd-party ipod manager such as CopyTrans. -
Some songs, which are bought in the iTunes store, will be played iTunes but not on my iPod touch. Has somebody an explanation for that? Thanks,
No, you should have Restrictions OFF.
Computer's iTunes > Preferences > Parental Preferences > everything should be unchecked.
Are the songs also on computer's iTunes? -

Last successful iTunes Store access was 2013-10-08 22:21:42.Same problem. I can see the itunes store so not a problem with windows firewall. The account is active on my iphone so i know i am not locked out. I can connect the PC to my iphone so i know itunes is working ok. It is just logging into itunes on this pc which doesn't work. Only thing I can think of is that the email address I use for my apple id has been offline for a while and is working again now, I'm wondering whether this has been the case for others who are having this issue?

Ipod classic 160GB very slow sync and cannot connect to itunes store windows 7 ansd itunes 10.6.0.40. I have now been trying for 3 weeks to restore my iPod. Really frustrated, any ideas would be welcome.
Cured the problem! Reinstalled an earlier version of itunes from oldapps.com (version 10) now everything works as it should. I would suggest that if you are experiencing these problems that you do the same. I must say that it is a brave business decision on behalf of apple to effectively lock out all windows 7 users from their products and sales channels and I can only wish them luck in this very shortsighted policy.

I need help in resolving a problem that prevents me from accessing the iTunes store. Message reads " iTunes cannot contact the iTunes store" and also says that my laptop is no longer authorized to access my account. Help!
Go up to the top of your screen on iTunes and click on 'Store'. Then go down to 'Authorize This Computer'. That should cover part of it unless you've already authorized a bunch of other computers to use your account. If that's the case, you'll have to go to one of those computers and click the button just below it to 'deauthorize your account' from that computer. If you're not able to access the store, check your internet connection to make sure you are connected. Hope this helps.. good luck!
