Is a American bank card needed for purchases in the Apple Store?

Is a American bank card needed to purchase from the Apple US Online Store, or is it fine with just an american adress?

Both a US credit/debit card, a US residence address and a US shipping address. They will not send anything to a shipping forwarder.

    1.) No one here can tell you what the app review teams will/won't accept/reject, sorry.
    2.) App Reviewers have been rejecting a certain percentage of apps based on their determination that the app is too book-like, saying the dev should make a book instead.

  • Hi. Are there any overviews of my purchases from the Apple Store available on your website?

    Unfortunately I couldn't find a community for anything other than the App Store, but my question is aimed at the purchases from the Apple Store here on your site. I would like to print out a reciept for my Mac Mini which I bought in 2009.

    If you made your purchase from the online Apple Store, did you create an account? If so you can sign into your account and view the purchases that you have made in the recent past. Unfortunately, the information retained by Apple and available for your viewing only covers the last 18 months.
    If you made the ourchase with a bank card, oerhaps you can loctae that information in your bank card records and with that information Apple may be able to locate the purchase for you. Call 1-800-MY-APPLE in the US when you have located the bank information for the purchase.

  • I forgot my answers to security questions. I could not change and I am unable to make purchases at the Apple store. What do I do?

    I forgot my answers to security questions. I could not change and I am unable to make purchases at the Apple store. What do I do?

    Go to http://appleid.apple.com and select "Manage your account". Log in with your Apple ID and password, then select Password and Security from the left column.
    You need to know the answers to your existing questions to reset them. If you don't remember your answers, there may be a link on that page where you can have a reset email send to your Rescue email address. This will not appear if you have not provided a Rescue email address, and may not appear even if you did.
    If there does not seem to be any way to reset your security questions, contact iTunes Support here: http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ They will respond within a business day. Be sure to check your spam or junk mail folders for their response.

  • HT4623 I updated my mini, but some of my apps are no longer available. One of them I purchased from the Apple store.  They are grayed out with the word "waiting" underneath the app.  Any suggestions?

    I updated my mini, but some of my apps are no longer available. One of them I purchased from the Apple store.  They are grayed out with the word "waiting" underneath the app.  Any suggestions?

    If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.

    Another thing to try - Turn the iPad Off & then back ON.
    If that doesn't work:
    •  Log out of your iTunes store account.  Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
    • Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
    • After restart, the Waiting should be gone.

  • Can i use the debit card details for payment in the itunes store

    can i use the debit card details for payment in the itunes store

    Debit cards are no longer accepted in the iTunes Store, it seems. The current valid payment methods are listed here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5552
    You can try contacting the iTunes Store and asking if there is any way to use your card, but they probably will tell you that it's not possible.
    http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
    Using a debit card in any online service where it stores your card is a bad idea in any case since if someone gains access to your account in the service, they can quickly drain your bank account. Credit cards limit your liability, as do prepaid iTunes cards.
    Regards.

  • Why can you not use Apple Pay for purchases in the App Store or iTunes?

    To make a purchases in the App Store or iTunes, it appears you can only pay by entering Mastercard, Visa, Discover, or AmEx information.   If you select none and try to make a purchase, you will again be prompted to enter this information.  I would like to use my Apple Pay account to pay for Apps/tunes, but that doesn't  seem possible.  It seems this negates one of the primary benefits of Apple Pay, which is to make purchases without turning over your credit card information to the merchant, in this case Apple.  I know you can pay with Touch ID, but that is only authoring payment from your credit card information you have on file.

    Hello ToastyFlake,
    It sounds like you are wanting to use ApplePay to purchase content from either the iTunes or App Stores. According to the following article, you are correct. ApplePay is for in-app (if the app supports it) or purchasing from a retail store. 
    Set up and use Apple Pay
    Pay with Apple Pay in stores
    On iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, you can use Apple Pay in stores that accept contactless payments. Look for one of these symbols at checkout:
    Pay with Apple Pay in apps
    On iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPad Air 2, and iPad mini 3, you can use Apple Pay to pay within apps when you see the “Buy with Apple Pay” or “Apple Pay”  button as a payment method. Look for these buttons in apps:
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • "This Apple ID is only valid for purchase in the US store" and I'm in the PH?

    Hi! So originally my Billing Info was set in the US and today I wanted to upgrade my MBP to OS ML. I'm in the PH now so I changed my Billing Info and set it to my address here in the Philippines, but everytime I hit that "Buy App" button in the App Store and log in, I'm always taken to my Billing Info and even though I already changed my account info, the address that's displayed there is still the US one. I tried to change the country numerous times and set it to PH, but I always get the message saying my Apple ID is only valid for purchase in the US. I'm taken to the US store afterwards, and after I hit "Buy App" the same thing happens over and over again.
    I've been trying to figure this out for over an hour now. What else can I do?

    Try contacting the App Store support folks - http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/.
    I sort of understand what's going on, but not sure why you weren't able to rectify the problem. Maybe the support folks can help.

  • Where is "Check for Purchases" in the itunes Store?

    I can't find the Check for Purchases button I'm supposed to click on to see my purchases in the itunes store menu. Where do I find it?

    Expanding a bit on what Deb said, the command is under the iTunes Store menu (just to clarify that you're not looking for a web link but rather an application menu command).

  • HT203167 Someone has been using my credit card to download games. this has happened before when I  had a different credit card on my itunes account. the apple store on that previous time would not give me the ip address where the downloads ended up.

    Someone I entrusted my computer to for repairs decided to keep it. all my personal information was on the computer. the peron has been using my credit card information o make ourchases from the apple store. If I do not have a credit card on the account on my iphone, I am unable to updatw it or my ipad. After persuading the apple store people to delete the last credit card info, I had to put aother credit card on the iphone to be able to update the software and thevapps. now that card is being used by the person o download war games on the new card. I cannot find any of his downloaded games on any of my devices. I am close to giving up my iphone and ipad. the last time i called the apple store, theynwould not give me the IP address of the omputer the games were downloaded to. they only gave me the name of my ipad. anyone could name thir ipad according to the name on mynipad. I have found the Apple store less than friendly about security matters like this. What can I do to maintain my acount and not continue to be ripped off by the thieving interloper? if i change my user name nd password, i will forever lose legitimate purchases. Please advise me.

    We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
    Is the credit card registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, it was issued by a bank in your country and you are currently in that country ? If it is then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes support and see if they know why it's being declined : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management
    Each time that you add or change your card details then a temporary store holding charge may be applied to check that the card details are correct and valid (though that is usually $1 or the approximate local equivalent) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3702
    Did your daughter owe any amounts to iTunes ? Does anything show on your purchase history : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2727 ? If they are proper charges which you don't think that you should have then you can contact iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • Purchase from the Apple Store

    I bought the album Glad Rag Doll from the Apple store, and it showed up in Purchases on the left side of iTunes, and my credit card was charged. However, it did not show up in my Music list, and when I Search for it, it does not appear. It must be in there somewhere. How do I get it into the Music list? Thanks

    Actually you purchased it from the iTunes Store, not the Apple Store which is a different entity. Just to avoid possible confusion.
    First, look under the Store menu in iTunes for the "Check for available downloads" command and run that. You may find the tracks there to be downloaded. If not, go to the iTunes Store, log into your account, and click the Purchases link under the Quick Links. See if the album is listed. If it is, you should be able to download it there. You may need to delete the entries for the album in the Purchased playlist before the download link will activate.
    If none of that works, go here:
    iTunes Support
    and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store.
    Regards.
