I live in Italy and opened my itunes account with an Italian credit card. I want to access only English itunes and Apple said I need to open separate accounts. Any suggestions?

I live in Italy but am Australian and opened my itunes account with my Italian credit card and address, but that does not let me access itunes in any English country which is what I had wanted. Apple tell me I need to open separate accounts, complete with address and tel. Yesterday they told me I could do that with an itunes prepaid card but on the Aust itunes store the card was considered invalid (obviously because it is in Euro) Any suggestions? I am sure I am not the only person living in another country who needs access to itunes in their mother tongue......how backward is Apple!

To be able to download content from another country's store you need a valid billing address in that country, and be in that country when buying from it.
Apple can only sell content where the content provider's grant them licenses to do so, so if the music etc that you want to buy isn't available in the Italian store then it's because the provider's aren't letting Apple sell it there. Do you have access to other music purchase download sites which have the content that you want ?

  • HT1904 I purchased my I-Pad in the USA and opened my apps account with my American credit card.  Now that I am in Brazil, I can not  make any purchases and can't edit my account.

    I need to update my account or be able to use themone I originally opened in the USA with my American credit card.  I also want tomuse my language, English, so,how can I stay with my USA Apple Store?

    Again, you are not allowed to use the US iTunes Store from outside of the US. Nor are some of the apps you mentioned - probably not any that provide any sort of live game coverage, anyway - licensed for use outside the US and may not work elsewhere.
    If you are in Brazil, the Brazilian iTunes Store is the only one you are allowed to use. There's nothing more we can say on the subject.

    You can't merge accounts.  Just continue to use your Yahoo ID for iTunes, and your iCloud ID for everything else.

  • I owe 27 dollars on itunes and i got a 25 dollar itunes card if i were to update my account with my new credit card would the 27 dollars be deducted from my credit card or would the itunes gift card pay for the 25 and my card would pay for the $2 left.

    Generaly, if you have an iTunes card and a valid credit card, you have the option of charging your purchases to eiher one or the other?  By default, it goes to your iTunes card, but you can override that.

  • Set up itunes account with two different credit cards

    Is it possible to set up an existing iTunes Store Account with two different credit cards?
    I am currently registered with a personal card but wish to make one purchase for work (Lion OS) using a company credit card.
    many other sites let you choose what card to pay from, multiple addresses, etc. but I don't see any options from apple site.
    for this purchase I am considering:
    1. going into the "edit payment information".
    2. editing all the info related to the company card and address.
    3. completing the purchase and download
    4. going back to the payment info and putting back my original personal informaton.
    there must be an easier way -- or is this the only apple offering.
    any advice appeciated. TIA.

    but this discussion is clearly for people that have multiple accounts because they have multiple credit cards.
    This is incorrect.
    It is very clearly for people with a single iTunes account and they want to use multiple credit cards for purchases on that single iTunes account.
    If I had one iTunes account with multiple credit cards registered (which again, is what this discussion is in reference to),
    Huh? You just wrote it was NOT that.
    I bought Lion through my company, which means I logged into the App Store with my company's credentials, of which I have my company credit card registered.
    You mean your company paid for it. You are simply the one who did the purchasing using company funds.
    I now have a new iMac of which I want to install Lion.  Apple allows you to install this same install multiple times on your own personal machines.  I had to remember which account I bought Lion on so that I logged into the App Store correctly.  If I would have logged into my new iMac with my personal account, I would have then bought Lion again, of which I didn't want to do.
    But you did not purchase Lion with your personal account. It was purchased on your business account.
    If you want Lion on your persona/home computers, you will need to purchase it.
    I also wanted to install iPhoto.  I bought iPhoto on my personal account.  I had to then log out of the app store from my company account and log back in using my personal account to install iPhoto or I would have just bought iPhoto with my company's credit card, of which I would have been in a good amount of trouble.
    Imagine if I bought 3 or 4 apps a week and these apps were scattered across my business account and my personal account.  Each time I wanted to install these apps on one of my multiple machines in my  house, I would have to remember which account I bought the app on. or go to my purchases or which there could possibly be dozens of apps in each account.
    I would hope that your company requires you to track purchases you have made with their money.
    And I would think that you would want to keep track of all business purchases so you can get reimbursed (for the purchases you made on their behalf). If/when you leave the company, they can get company owned software that you purchased with their funds.

  • HT1911 If I make a new iTunes account with the same credit card number can I still have the same thing I bought from my other account?

    Not without buying them from the new iTunes Store account.

  • USA iTunes account with non USA Credit-Card

    Hi, I'm from Armenia. And iTunes Store of Armenia is not very good, that why I get an USA account. But now I want to add Armenian credit card to my account. Is there any way to do it?  When I want to add it via AppStore app on iPhone, I get an error saying "Your payment method info. dosen't match your bank's records". What can I do??

    You can't, you also need to be in the US to use the US iTunes store, accessing a country's store from outside of that country is against the store's terms of use which you agreed to.

  • Is it possible to have 2 accounts in itunes store with the same credit card number?

    Just found out today that my credit card was used fraudulently worth $177.78  in ITUNES.
    When i checked my itunes account, no such purchases were reflected.
    So this means that the said purchase was made on another account,
    How could this be possible?

    Hi...
    Contact your credit card company and ask that they block any further charges from Apple until the matter is resolved.
    And if you have not already done so, change your Apple ID password ASAP >  How to change your Apple ID password
    And you can report the problem to Apple here >  Apple - Support - iTunes Store - Contact Us

  • I have a CC account with a Brazilian credit card and need to change to an USA credit card. Can't find a way... Any clue form staff???

    Hi.
    I'm an Acrobat and LR user.
    I use the full LR 5 version that I bought online when it was launched.
    A few months ago I decide to subscribe Acrobat CC via my Brazilian credit card. It works OK, no problem until now...
    But now I want to upgrade from LR5 to the new LR6... and I can't find an upgrade option... just the full price buy option
    Also, I tried to subscribe LR CC but want to use my US credit card... your system does not allow me to change the payment method... can't remove the Brazilian, can't add a new one...
    So, I'm lost... in an issue as simple as... I WANT TO BUY YOUR PRODUCT,DEAR ADOBE!!!!
    This should be an easy task, agreed?
    Anyone from staff with some clue.
    Thanks in advance

  • I have recently purchased the new iPad and I am having difficulties with draft emails not saving. Either it saves some of the added text or it saves none of it. Any suggestions, thanks?

    I have recently purchased the new iPad. I can send and receive e-mails (iCloud) without a problem but the draft function does not seem to be working. Specifically, when you go back to work on a draft e-mail, it has not saved the changes you made previously. Kinda annoying!  I think it must be a problem specific to my iPad as my iPhone does not have this problem. All suggestions as to solutions very welcome.

    Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank power On again in the normal way.] It is absolutely/appsolutely safe!

  • Why itunes store charge on my credit card when I download free game. and how I can talk to the person.

    Dear  iTunes support,
                 I have a question, why itunes store charge me afterI  download free game for my kid.

I will not pay all this  bills. I'm so upset why Apple let it happen to customer, that is look like all game sneaky to get money from people especially my daughter 4 years old she can't read you will charge money on that game?, I'm a mother who download Free Game and I didn't play attention while she playing. So the receipt  I want refund money back from your company.

                      totall I want my refund back is $131.89
    That two bills I need my money back to my credit card.
    Thank you.

    You are NOT addressing Apple here at all.
    We are all itunes users like you.
    There is no phone number to call.
    You let your daughter play with your iphone and continue to buy and you think it is somehow Apples fault?
    You can set the restrictions that will stop anyone from making these purchases.  You have obviously failed to do this.  This is your fault.  Not Apples.

  • 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
