I'm stuck with uk iTunes Store and need to change to the Australian store so my cc billing details will be accepted.  How do I do that?

Has anyone else had this problem? It's not intuitive and very frustrating.  I just need to be able to switch iTunes Store to Australia so their software will accept my post code as being real in the billing section.

  • After moving from Canada to the US, getting a new iPhone 5C, and restoring my backup from iCloud, I can't update my apps. I get an error message that my account is not valid in the Canadian App store and I must change to the US store. How do I do that?

    Change here:

    You must have a verified billing address & be located in the country whose store you are trying to use.

  • HT4061 I updated my phone this morning and now it is stuck with an iTunes logo and arrow pointing to it and a pic of the power cord - the phone was plugged in when I started the update...now I can't access my phone at all

    My phone is plugged in and the screen shows the power cord connector and arrow and the iTunes logo.  I have made sure the plug is in and power on. Touching the screen does nothing. I have turned it off and back on I get an apple pic then back to the iTunes logo pic, arrow and plug....

    I installed new update and have had the connect to iTunes all day.  I got home connected to iTunes and it said my phone couldn't be updated it needed restored to factory settings.  I was reluctant to lose everything so I ignored this and clicked update.  After it installed it said to restore again.  Again I ignored it and this time it updated my phone and my phone turned back on with everything there.
    So glad I ignored the previous messages asking me to restore! You could try this if you have iTunes and don't want it restored to factory settings.

  • MacBook stuck with shift key enabled and numbers not working - even the keyboard app in languages wont type lowercase nor numbers?!  Anyone know whats up?  no spillage...cant understand why the keyboard app wont do anything.

    Anyone have a clue?  I can understand the keyboard being broke / shift key being stuck but why in the world would I not be able to type the numbers on the language keyboard app on the operating system?  Numbers show up on the app but when I press them I still get the special characters like #^&#* and it wont type lower case. Nothing has ever been spilt, just stopped working one day.  Rebooted from Time Capsule restore dated a month ago and its still doing it. (problem started two weeks ago).  Only way to get lower case or numbers to actually show up is the copy and paste.
    Any help would be amazing!
    Details on computer:  13 inch MacBook6, 1  (Late 2009) / Intel Core 2 DUO /  2.26GHZ / 2GB /  Memory running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5

    If you can afford it, I would recommend replacing the topcase and keyboard as Apple suggests. If like me, you can't afford it or are open to a hack fix, then read on.
    The problem
    Yesterday, a little water spilt on my 13" MBP keyboard. I turned it around immediately, drained out the water and used tissue to suck it all up but the keyboard was still acting funny. I turned it off and left it out in the sun for a couple of hours and turned it on again but problems remained. Like Rickdubya, my warranty had run out just a month ago and I knew Apple would not cover this under warranty. I tried to clean the shift keys and left it overnight with some rice on them with hopes that the moisture might get sucked out. Nothing worked. (The rice bit is an urban legend that seems to work with some electronics). Went to the Apple Store this morning and was told that they wouldn't even take out the key and clean it, and that the entire top case would have to be replaced. A total bill of 156 Euros which I cannot afford. I had a USB keyboard that would let me use the Mac for the moment so I decided to try to work out a fix.
    Symptoms
    - Boots in safe mode everytime (which I later found out was because the shift key is pressed)
    - Cannot login because password is in lower case or has numbers
    - Cannot boot in super user mode and try to disable keys or override password as some commands won't work in uppercase (I wouldn't recommend this anyway because its super user mode)
    - All text is in caps and numbers are symbols as though shift key is always pressed
    - Audio doesn't work
    - Keyboard viewer would not always show the shift key pressed. The key seemed to get pressed at random
    Fix
    1. Hold the Option button down on boot to bypass the Safe Mode ensure a normal boot
    2. At the login screen, plug in a USB keyboard and enter your password to login
    3. Change your password to one that uses all caps and no numbers
    4. Download and install KeyRemap4MacBook .
    5. Use a combination of the functionalities of the Keyboard Viewer and KeyRemap4MacBook to figure out which shift key is the problem. In my case, I found out that it was only my left shift key.
    6. Disable the left/right shift key on KeyRemap4MacBook and click on the 'Reload XML' button to make that take effect.
    If only one shift key was the problem, then you are done. If both shift keys were shorted, then its likely other keys are too. In which case you should probably just replace the entire thing. If you think other keys are not affected, then you can use KeyRemap4MacBook itself to remap the shift functionality to a lesser used key like the Left Option key.
    7. Under System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login Items , add KeyRemap4MacBook as an application that should start on login. This will ensure that your disable/remap of the shift key is active everytime you login.
    Usage change/Things to remember
    1. Remember to hold down the Option key everytime the computer boots or reboots to bypass safe mode. The fix above is at the software level. The key is physically still shorted at the hardware level and will affect boot.
    2. Remember that at the login screen, the disable/remap is not active. So your password now has to be all caps and only letters.
    As soon as I can save some money, I will get my topcase and keyboard replaced but until then this solution works great with minimal change. Hope this helps!

  • How do I with an iTune account set up in Germany access the UK store?

    Hi there,
    Have watched fellow non-Germans have trouble accessing UK or other national stores for downloads when they set up their iTunes account in Germany. How can I set up my iTunes account so that my store is the UK one?
    Thanks

    You cannot.
    You can ONLY use the itunes store of your country of residnece ( proven by the issuing country of your credit acrd and the valid billing address on that card) AND ONLY while you are inside the borders of that country.
    You cannot use other countrys itunes store.  This is a violation of the terms of service of the itunes store.
    "The Service is available to you only in the United Kingdom. You agree not to use or attempt to use the Service from outside this location. iTunes may use technologies to verify your compliance."
    http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/uk/terms.html#SERVICE
    It is the same for each country.

    Do you mean that your computer's iTunes isn't recognising that an iPad in recovery mode has been connected to it ? You have an up-to-date version of iTunes installed on your computer, and its open ?

  • If i take my ipod4g(32gb) with a cracked screen and without a warranty to the apple store how much will they charge to fix it?

    hey i just dropped my ipod and was wondering how much apple would charge to repair my screen. Some people have said that they do it for free even without a warranty and some say they charge lie 200 to 300 bucks

    Sometimes if you make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store the Genius will exchange it at no cost. It is not coverd by the warranty byt sometimes the Genius will.  Otherwise for a 32 BG yu will have to pay $149 for the exchange..
