I bought a new iPad in July in USA and it was set up by the Apple store in Houston, now I can't access my apps store neither can I view all my purchased apps.
Secondly, every time it want to update my apps that I bought years ago, it tells me to go to Nigeria store. I don't know why I must change to a store to update my apps
Thirdly, I think it's unfair to pay the same amount of Money for an IPad with those in USA and the you can't even download the good apps. It seems the apps in the Nigeria store are those they don't want in the USA . Why can't we have the same quality apps considering we paid the same amount of money to buy this iPads. I think this is very unfair to us.
The apps available to you are dependent on your location. If you are not in the USA, then you cannot get the USA app store. Whilst you may think that is unfair, it has been a part of the stardard terms and conditions you agreed to when you setup the iOS device in question originally, as well as every time you click agree to the terms and conditions.
This is done because of two things, firstly there are many legal and semi-legal reasons that an iOS app store download is available in one territory and not another, in addition to this, it also allows apple to provide language specific content, as well as team up with companies and organisations within individual organisations in order to provide you with exclusive offers, content, and information, which it would not otherwise be able to do.
Rules for the iOS app store are also applied in varing forms for the music store, the books store, and the iTunes U content library.
I can very much understand your fustraition, as someone who spent a considerable portion of his life, especially during the years he grew up, living in California, USA, but now living in London, UK, I too find it very fustraiting that you cannot always get the same content from one country to another, especially when most marketing for iOS apps originates in the USA these days.
I hope this helps your query and helps to ease your fustraition. If you would like apple to be aware of your fustraition, rather than putting it onto a pubilc form which is on monitored in a very limited capacity, then you can fill in the form at http://www.apple.com/feedback where you can give your complaint straight to apple.

My new iPad is synced with iTunes but now it won't recognize my iPod nano. How do I get it to recognize both? iTunes synced with my Nano just fine until I added the iPad.

My ipad hangs up after showing a message that says it "Cannot Access Find My Friends" and that I need to open the app and review my signin info to continue sharing. I can't go there because it is hung up. I also can't power off.

Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

I updated my iPad 2 OS to iOS 6.0..after that I am unable to download or update anything from the App Store. The MSG I get is "id not valid for US store. Go to Indian store for purchase"..never faced this problem earlier before the update to OS 6..help!!
Apple's response to my email:
"I understand that you can't update your apps using your iPad.
Apple is currently working toward a resolution for the issue you have reported. You will receive an email after the matter has been investigated and further information is available.
Thank you for your patience. Apple wants your iTunes experience to be as enjoyable as possible. Have a great day!" -
I upgraded to iOS x mavericks on my iMac now i cannot access my iPhoto i get this messageThis update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled. I have not changed anything thankyou for any info.
Please test after each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved. Back up all data before making any changes. Keep in mind that no one here represents Apple or can help with customer-service issues.
Step 1
A purchased app can only be updated by signing in to the App Store with the same Apple ID that was originally used to buy it. There's no way around that limitation, which also applies to free apps. If you can't sign in with the buyer's ID, delete the app and reinstall it. You'll have to pay for it again, if applicable.
Step 2
If you get the alert when trying to update a bundled iLife app, elect the Purchases page in the App Store and locate the app in your purchase history. If there's a button marked ACCEPT on the right, click it.
If you have a used Mac, the bundled apps were linked to the original owner's Apple ID and can't be transferred to you. Reportedly, customer service has issued redemption codes to some second owners who asked, but it's not guaranteed.
Step 3
If you're trying to update iLife or iWork apps that were installed from a purchased DVD, or if you have a refurbished Mac bought directly from Apple, contact App Store customer service for a redemption code. You may be asked for the part number of the DVD.
Step 4
From the App Store menu bar, select
Store ▹ View My Account
Enter your Apple ID password at the prompt. At the lower right corner of the window that opens, click the Reset button. Close the window.

I tryed to create a new library to use one computer with my nano and my girlfriends iphone 4. for some reason when i did this i can no longer find all of my stuff. all I want to do now is start over and create a new user profile for her and get my library back.
Does the original library file still exist on the computer? Hopefully when creating the new library it was done in a seperate folder as I do not believe iTunes allows for two library files in the same location.

TS1702 How come I can't update and loading the app and iTunes in my iPad?
Would anyone can help me to resolve that problems? Thanks!
Julvia, if you forgot your restrictions passcode there is nothing to do but restore from new. Apple has pretty good security on these iDevices and besides just spending a long time trying to enter codes until you guess correctly there is nothing you can do. Restoring from new means it will totally reset your device and you will have to reinstall all your Apps.
While this can be frustrating it is so that someone can't take your device and then access your information. In the future I would advice using an app like Keeper that you just have to remember one password to access and then it stores all your other passwords for you.
I would address the first issue of not being able to download apps but since you are having to restore your device to new this may fix the issue. If you are still having problems after you restore post in here and I'll see what i can do. -
i upgraded new software onto my iphone 4 however it stopped syncing and said error so when i tried to access my phone the itunes USB was showing in my phone screen and now i cannot access my phone
When it stopped and said error, what was the error? You are saying that you disconnected the phone from the computer and all you see is the USB showing on the phone? Then you need to reconnect to the computer and restore the phone.

When plugging in an iPad in Apple Configurator, it is not being read under USB Connected so I can't update it. The iPhoto window opens up and reads the photos on the iPad, so it is connecting to the computer. Earlier today I wasn't having any problems. I have shut down the iPad and the computer and started over, but that didn't help. Any ideas on how to get the system to read the iPad so I can update the apps on it?
Hi, is the problem just to update your apps on your iPad? Here is what you should check. Is the iTunes on your computer updated to the latest version? Does your iPad needs to be updated? Do you have enough storage on your iPad to do the update? On your device is your iCloud back up checked?
Go to Settings - iCloud - Backup/Storage - see if its checked, and try unchecking it before connecting it to the computer.
Please let me know if you need any further assistance. -
