I can't purchase iTunes outside of the U.S. Please help!

I used to have an address in the U.S. & am registered for purchasing iTunes there. However, I no longer have an address in the U.S. & am trying to purchase iTunes from Switzerland but I can't do it! Very frustrating. Help, please.

Are you trying to purchase from the Swiss store with
an American credit card?
No, I have a credit card issued from a Swiss bank. My mother used to live in Washington & let me use her credit card to buy music because at that time, it wasn't yet possible to do so in Switzerland.

  • Hello , I want to ask some question about ipads \  How powerful is the iPad?  How useful is it for reading books, newspaper or magazines or for surfing the web? Can you identify any shortcomings of the device?   please help me :(

    Hello ,
    I want to ask some question about ipads \
    How powerful is the iPad? 
    How useful is it for reading books, newspaper or magazines or for surfing the web?
    Can you identify any shortcomings of the device?  
    please help me

    it's less powerful than your average computer. THink of it like a netbook but with a better processor.
    It'll do fine for surfing (although if you browse a lot of flash based sites you will need to get a third party browser since safari doesn't accommodate it)
    You may do OK on reading books, papers or magazines, especially if they have apps, but the ipad's screen is backlit, so it doesn't work well outdoors and you may need to fiddle with the brightness so that you don't get eye strain (it's just like doing too much reading from a computer screen)
    I would say the biggest short comings are data transfer. Apple's preferred work flow is that everything is done via iTunes or the internet....well people dont' always have 100% reliable always on internet access so you can find yourself in a situation where you can't get things on/off the iPad.
    By and large, it's a good device for day to day stuff, but is not a computer replacement.

  • Can't Transfer iTunes Rental to iPad Mini. Please Help. Have a 9 hr flight tomorrow morning.

    I recently rented 3 movies from iTunes for my upcoming flight to Japan from the US. However, when I try to transfer the rented movies from my laptop to my iPad mini, iTunes starts the sync process, but does not copy the movies to my iPad. They are HD movies, I have tried checking the manually manage music and videos, I have erased and reset my iPad, I have sync'd the time on my laptop and my iPad, I have wifi available for the transfer.
    After the sync completes, I click on the tab "On My iPad" and go to the "Rentals" tab and the movies appear in a light grey font with a dotted grey circle to the left of the movie.
    If anyone has any ideas, please help.

    Hi jasmeanzxzx,
    I understand that you are experiencing some confusion with one of your apps on your iPad. If this app was purchased by your Apple ID that is signed in on your iPad and the item has not been removed from the App Store by the developer, then the item should show in your purchased app history, found by using the information in this article:
    Download past purchases - Apple Support
    https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201272
    I would suggest that you make sure you are signed in to the Apple ID that purchased the app, then take a look at your past purchases page for the item. Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Braden

  • Can't download itunes - security zone policy error message - please help!

    Hi there,
    I have had an ipod for a while now but can't use it as everytime i try to download itunes I just get the following error message;
    This download has been blocked by your security zone policy - edgesuite.net.
    I am using firefox on a windows vista with norton security protection. If you have any suggestions on how I can resolve this I would really appreciate it!

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

  • Apple tv frozen after software download....at the cottage..no computer just IPad..why wont it work now...just  a cable and itunes imge on the tv?  please help!

    I just bought Apple tv...was working great of my Ipad at the cottage...kept getting a 'download new software' notice so I did...
    now I just have an image of a cable and Itunes on the tv....I have no computer at the cottage, didn''t come with a cable????  Whats up? It wont reboot or reset to factory setting with the remote...frozen? 
    Please help1  It is hours old out of the box.

    The update didn't apply properly. That image is telling you to connect to a computer using micro usb and restore via iTunes. Unfortunately there is no way around that.

    Hi Poonam26c,
    If you do not have a local copy of a song which you have purchased (i.e. it is available via iTunes in the Cloud), you may need to redownload it before you can transfer it to your device. You may find the following article helpful:

  • HT1338 i have os x 10.4 and need 10.5 to upgrade itunes for an ipod touch 4th gen...can i purchase 10.5 from the apple store and can i upgrade from 10.4 to 10.5 without issues

    i currently have os x 10.4 and per itunes, i need 10.5 to download the itunes version that supports the ipod touch 4th generation
    can i purchase 10.5 on the apple store and is it safe to go from 10.4 directly to 10.5....what is the best procedure

    You cannot get Leopard from Apple any more. You will find copies from third-party vendors on eBay, Amazon, or Google.
    If you have an Intel Mac you can upgrade to Snow Leopard instead provided your model meets the requirements shown below:
    Upgrading to Snow Leopard
    You must purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
           2. 1GB of memory
           3. 5GB of available disk space
           4. DVD drive for installation
           5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
               fees may apply.
           6. Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and
               terms apply.

  • Ok. So my iTunes started acting up a few months ago. ALL of the songs I purchased from the iTunes store stop in the middle of the song and then go back to the begining (I keep it on repeat one song by the way). Please help!!! (Windows 7)

    Ok. So my iTunes started acting up a few months ago. ALL of the songs I purchased from the iTunes store stop in the middle of the song and then go back to the begining (I keep it on repeat one song by the way). Please help!!! (Windows 7) I would really like to hear my songs all the way through, but I can't . I tried the "Convert Protected ACC files to Purchased ACC files fix" but it DIDN'T work. I don't know what to do. It does it when I transfer the music onto my Classic too.

    What do you mean "doesn't recognize"?

  • HT201209 Can I purchase iTunes gift cards for people in other countries to use?

    Can I purchase iTunes gift cards for people in other countries to use? I have a brother that lives in Vietnam and I want to buy him a gift card that he can use there.  I've read the iTunes gift cards are country specific.

    What you have read is correct; gift cards are country specific. So only if iTunes cards are issued in Vietnam, and if they are if you can find a retailer there that sells such cards and would accept an out-of-country credit card, would you be able to purchase a gift card for your brother. The same would apply to any other country.
    Regards.

  • I have a question, why is it I can't purchase a app at App Store it says "Your payment method is not valid in this store" and I've got a Visa card and my location is in the Philippines. Please help me, what can I do?

    I have a question, why is it I can't purchase a app at App Store it says "Your payment method is not valid in this store" and I've got a Visa card and my location is in the Philippines. Please help me, what can I do?

    Your visa card is a credit card, not debit card?  Do you meet the requirements as below, interpreted strictly?
    Philippines - http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/ph/terms.html - "The iTunes Store, Mac App Store, App Store, and iBookstore services (the "Stores") accept credit cards issued by banks in the Philippines or Content Codes as forms of payment."

  • Is it safe to just store my purchased iTunes movies in the iTunes cloud rather than filling up my Macbook Pros hard drive?

    Is it safe to just store my purchased Itunes movies in the Itunes cloud rather than filling up the Macbook Pro's hard drive with HD content?

    Not safe, no. The movie's owner can remove a movie at any time, which does happen from time to time, making it impossible to re-download later. You should always keep a backup copy of any app or content that you care about.
    Regards.
