ITunes access for Mac users outside of the USA

We are Mac users both for business and personal. We buy all Apple products and hardware and purchase photo books etc. We purchase all our equipment online and ship. Yet, I have no access to the iTunes free downloads nor am I able to purchase any songs because we do not have a US Billing Address for our Credit Cards! We have international cards and use it for everything else world-wide. Yet no itune!! I buy all Apple products using my card - yet no itunes! Not having access to even download the free songs is not fair, as I am being hindered from creating iMovies because I cannot upload a song. This is an application that comes with my Mac yet I am not able to use it. Come on, you have to help me out here! I need to make some iMovies and post! What can I do? Please help? Debra

Sorry, but there's nothing anyone here can do to help as far as the iTunes Store is concerned. Apple has not, for legal and/or business reasons, been able to open iTunes Stores in every country. If there's no iTunes Store in your country, you'll need to look to other sources of music.
I am being hindered from creating iMovies because I cannot upload a song.
You're not being hindered; iMovie doesn't need the iTunes Store to be completely functional. There are lots of sources for music, such as an imported CDs (you need legal permission to use any copyrighted music, of course, if you intend these movies for other than personal use). You don't need to be a able to purchase from the iTunes Store to have music for your movies.
Regards.

  • ITunes access for multiple users on the same Apple

    I think I'm really done myself in for the fist time with my iMac. I have decided instead of sharing a single log-in with my girlfriend, to get her her own. This is working out great, but I'm come to a halt in trying to get her access to our music on iTunes. I read the article on the Apple Support website that clearly explains how to do this, I also read Kay and Bert's message thread which I thought would be of help to no avail.
    I've copied my iTunes folder into user/shared then opened iTunes/preferences and connected iTunes the path to the new location. Done... but I can't see any of my music!! ... and I can't even see the music under my log-in. However, I can clearly see the files there in the user/shared folder. I'm starting to feel those "windows" days before I found Apple. Please help!

  • Revoking the access for a user based on the date specified by the certifier.

    Hi,
    Is it possible for the certifier to specify a date before he clicks on "Revoke" so that the user access is revoked on specified date in R2 PS2.

    You can't do it from OOTB. 
    _layout folder is accessible to the users if they have read access in any of the site even subsite.
    You can modify *.aspx file, add your custom control which will check user.

  • I recently downloaded the iTunes 11.0.5 for Mac OS X and the iTunes store comes up as a blank page. I have already tried re-downloading iTunes and that didn't work... How can I get it to work?

    I recently downloaded the iTunes 11.0.5 for Mac OS X and the iTunes store comes up as a blank page. I have already tried re-downloading iTunes and that didn't work... How can I get it to work?

    I was able to fix mine. I went to software update and updated a few things. I did not update everything, but only what I thought were the essentials, which I believe was Safari, a security update, and a firmware update.
    Then I deleted and reinstalled Itunes yet another time. Now the itunes store is back up again.

  • No Wimbledon for Mac users

    I would have liked to watch the Wimbledon finals on my computer, but according to their site Apple computers are not supported "due to the digital rights management and sharing technology used".
    http://wimbledon.mediazone.com/US/subscribe.html
    http://img.skitch.com/20080705-dj5mu9mn985trq6f4pn3bufhba.jpg
    I don't know what they're referring to exactly, and honestly I don't really care.
    But I'm tired of things being unavailable for Mac users. Apple, what are you doing about it??
    thanks,
    Liz

    You can view them by paying a subscription. They use the WMV format (bless 'em!) so you will need Flip4Mac WMV Player from... On Wimbledon.com's subscription page, they specifically tell Mac users that they are not supported.
    Unfortunately, it appears they will not be supported on a Mac under OS X. According to a comment on the UK site, it appears viewing will require VMV 10/11 which leaves out Mac users whose Flip4Mac support only extends as high as WMV 9. However, all of the "archives" and "free" material seems to be encoded with WMV 9 and is still accessible.
    That's where Apple needs to be on the ball and if there is an easy solution, make sure that the folks at Wimbledon.com know about it, and that they make it available to their subscribers.
    What you seem to fail to realize is the fact that WMV DRM and Apple's DRM are mutually incompatible and in direct competition with one another other. Further, you seem to think it is Apple's responsibility to initiate and organize "a commission on standards compliance." I hate to break the news, but as already been pointed out above, Apple compression formats, in almost every case, adhere to open standards already agreed upon by the ISO/IEC Moving Pictures Expert Group. It is the proprietary software developers which add their own enhancements, "improvements", and/or mix/merge various profiles/features/capabilities that you must convince to adhere to the already established standards.
    I can't take electronic books, videos, or music out of my local library because I have a Mac, and they use OverDrive. Can you honestly tell me that's not Apple's problem?
    How is it Apple's problem that the Libraries also opted to use WMV and its DRM over Apple's? Further, if you check out what the Overdrive Console is in actuality, you will find it is simply management software which performs the same functions as Apple's iTunes -- i.e., the prevention of unauthorized burning or distribution of DMR files, the timely forced expiration of "overdue" content, and the selection, access, and management of Library System media. Let's face it, in many ways Microsoft's DRM capabilities are more business oriented where Apple is more home entertainment/personal user oriented. I can't say that I really blame business oriented, "bottom line" sites for selecting one over the other here.
    I don't deny that there is a workaround and that with some knowledge, you can make it work,
    The only real workaround I see here is to have a Mac Intel system with functioning Windows XP, Vista, or similar Windows OS that supports WMV Player v10 or v11. Since I really don't care about viewing any of the sites or content that you seem to feel are so important, this is not a "hot issue" for me one way are the other.

  • Where do I download iTunes 8 for mac? Please!

    I need to update my iTunes at home with the new iTunes 8, moreover I cannot find it here, the first and only option I see is for Windows users. How come is that? The first option should be the update and download for mac users! I want to download the update as stand alone.
    Thanks!

    If you access the download page from a Windows computer it automatically downloads the Windows installer. I believe you can use this page regardless:

  • HT201897 Does a Mac Mini purchased in the USA require a power converter for operation in Europe or should I only purchase a different power cord for it?

    Does a Mac Mini purchased in the USA require a power converter to operate outside of the USA or can I simply purchase a different power cord for it?

    Depending on which European country (should their mains access plug/port shape vary) the
    cord set with correct ends on it has to match. You can buy a cord that plugs into the Mini
    where the factory cord goes, and the other end has one for the wall source shape. The wire
    for the application should be able to support 110~240VAC.
    With the cord or an accurate image in hand, you could either get a new cable to match both
    realities (mini + wall supply mains local) or an adapter (US/Standard to EU/Local) for just
    the head or input part of the original Apple cable. One plugs into the other, then into wall.
    If you have a new Mini with a small modular plug/port on the computer end of the power wire,
    it would have only two holes and no ground; the other end would have two prongs of equal
    shape and size. Not a polarized plug and not a grounded three-prong. To get a replacement
    power wire for the MINI to go from power source to the Mini is recommended, if you are going
    to be staying in one location for awhile. A Travel Kit that offers no electrical conversion but only
    the physical shape adapter kit, should a available in travel stores, airports; big box discount
    stores, computer and electronic stores. This page shows the cord end of the appliance shapes.
    The other end would be the mains shape for whichever country you are going to....
    http://www.signalandpower.com/European-Power-Cords/
    So to match the country or regional power mains type is a primary concern for obtaining the
    correct replacement cord to supply the Mini with local mains power. The end which plugs into
    the Mini is of a certain type (numbers for EU and elsewhere are published, see link + images)
    & the end that gets plugged into the mains or utility side, needs to match the local specification.
    The link to Apple, to contact for Support and Service information in prior post, should be able
    to help find a source for the local replacement type cord they'd sell local people with a Mini.
    Apple local sources offer replacements for this purpose; and for travelers, a second cord for
    a direct use (not adapter plugs) is a better bet. For those who only need a cord in two places.
    If you are traveling to Denmark, UK, Swiss or other EU countries require different adapters.
    Even places where the power itself may be somewhat similar. However your MINI has an
    automatic power supply that will conform to that energy standard, you only need to supply a
    correct non-transforming adapter. Simply a connection to adapt one shape to another.
    The general purpose travel kit that is not specialized to Apple power adapters, would have a
    plastic plug/adapter with the local pins on one side, and the US/standard two slots on the other.
    So, no circuitry nor any other change of electrical power inside this device would be required.
    http://www.signalandpower.com/2-Prong-Plug-Adapters/
    http://www.signalandpower.com/Convert-to-Europe-CEE-716-plug/
    http://www.signalandpower.com/Swiss-AC-Power-Cords/
    In other words, I believe my other post already covered this. On the ground on either end of the
    path, adapters are common and the Mini does not use proprietary electrical components IF you
    have one of the more recent shape aluminum models with the power supply built in. The older
    Mini has the power brick and two wires. A US/Standard plug adapter to EU/Local would work in
    either case, since all you'd do is plug the adapter plug into the local mains and the US plug into
    that one... I see these kinds of discards for as little as 25¢ in thrift stores in Alaska. Or you can
    buy a new one. Or you could get a complete cord with correct ends on it, for Mini + local mains.
    Hopefully this helps somewhat. The only info missing is which EU country or region is involved.
    Their shapes of plug are different, so the adapter end for local supply has to match their standard.
    Swiss, Denmark, UK, and others offer different shapes and so on.
    The Apple store in the location you are traveling should be able to supply you with a replacement
    cable for a modern MINI, that has the correct local mains end, and the correct Apple mini end on
    the opposite. Since the unit is automatically switching, the magic is done.
    Since I supplied a means to locate any number of Apple stores, authorized service providers &
    other Apple related vendors in my earlier reply: https://locate.apple.com/country you could contact
    any of them along your route in the City in whichever EU country, to find a local MINI power cable.
    In any event, I'm done...
    Good luck and happy trails...

  • I would like to suggest a Verizon-specific forum for Mac-users

    Verizon is the largest provider of wireless and other related solutions. When I have problems with my Mac or supporting services I am consistently able to find solutions on either the Mac or Verizon forums. However, this takes quite a bit of effort to locate the right answer for my problem. And, this takes a lot of time.
    I would like to harness solutions for Mac-users who are Verizon customers all in one place. This could make it easier for Mac-users to get quick answers. This could also be a great referral point for Verizon as it sorts out answers/solutions for Mac users.
    Currently, Verizon hears from less than .05% of its customers that there are any issues of compatibility, less access to great services, needs for solutions for Mac. However Mac users represent at least 20% of computer users around the US. On the one hand you can infer that there are issues with less than .05% of the Mac universe or, on the other hand, you can infer that many just don't go to Verizon for the solutions.
    I am not sure which is right. I just know that having solutions in one place, my Mac home, would be useful. I hope you will consider the idea.
    I do realize no forums are dedicated to any one provider. However, Verizon, again, is the biggest provider. Maybe this is worthy of a forum.

    Hi,
    I this case I don't see the need to duplicate services that are independent and already out there

    I am sure there are many that are also Language based all over the world or at least country based where a language is spoken in more than one part of the world.
    It is about the level of question involved and some may already get answered in the "Getting On Line" and similar forums already here.

  • HELP needed on Remote Management set to allow access for all users

    my mac mini snow leopard server runs in a data center and i use screen sharing to interact with it. i played with the sharing settings remotely yesterday and changed "allow access for" to all users. i was disconnected immediately and i couldn't logon again. i have no luck changing to other users. i don't want to make a special trip to the center to change it back to whatever it used to be. i can still use afp to connect but the screen sharing option is no longer available. what does "allow access for all users" mean anyway?
    thanks!

    As its name implies, allow access for all should allow any valid user account to access the server. I'm not sure why it's no longer working. It almost sounds like the ARDAgent crashed.
    Either way there's a command-line interface to the ARD preferences:
    /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Resources/ki ckstart
    man kickstart discusses the options, including examples of how to enable access for specific users.

  • Trouble with forms not fuctioning for Mac users

    I have created a form in LC Designer that works great on PC, but doesn't work on on Mac. Or rather doesn't work on all Mac machines.  I have tested the form on two different Mac machines in my office and it seems to work fine.  However, those outside the office are not able to save the completed form or allow the user to use the email submit button.  Is there something I can do to make this user-friendly for Mac users?

    The email button function is the least of the issues.  The fonts and type size are altered, parts of the form drop out and the form fields appear to be blank until you click on them.  Upon click the information then appears.  It's really very odd. 
    Additionally, they can not save the form to their desktop.  I thought that this was me forgetting to enable user rights, but that was not the case.  At the moment, Mac users can only print the form and fax it.
    Thanks,

  • Pcsuite for N82 for mac-user

    does anyone know where to download pcsuite for n82 for mac user?

    grrr.... with the number of people how have asked this exact question since i first bought my nokia phone a year ago, you'd think nokia would emblazen across their homepage, "MAC USERS you don't need PCSUITE, you need Nokia Multimedia Transfer"
    but they dont. so i don't blame you for asking.
    1. psychomania is right, albeit a bit abrupt: there is no PCSuite for the mac.
    2. abrupt? yes. because there is an alternative software 'suite' for you: the combination of iSync and nokia's own 'Nokia Multimedia Transfer'. that's the short answer i would like to have seen posted as the first response to your query. go here:
    http://europe.nokia.com/A4423133
    that's nokia's MAC software page. download the iSync plugin for your phone and the Nok...Mult...Transfer (lets call it NMT, shall we?) program.
    3. the LONG answer. while some people complain (habitually) that nokia doesn't properly support the mac, etc etc, i can think of nothing truly missing from the iSync+NMT combo. with this combo you get:
    * iPhoto integration (including automatically copying scaled copies of photos back to your phone post transfer to the MAC)
    * iTunes integration - including album art if you have it (sadly, this seems to only work for AAC files, but since this codec was DESIGNED to REPLACE mp3, and chances are you have mp3 now, converting to this format is generally a Good Thing)
    * Address Book integration - yup, with all the numbers, notes and even contact photos intact
    * iCal integration - todos, anniversaries, you get the idea
    * Safari bookmark sync - either sync the phone to a specific folder in safari, or add all of safari's bookmarks to the phone, or both
    so, what's missing? automatic sync when bluetooth comes in range? does pcsuite do this? (honestly, i don't know). my mac does. it's not part of the software listed above, but you can do it. i've got mine setup with 'Salling Clicker' to automatically run iSync when i'm in range up to twice a day. salling clicker isn't free, but it works across a large range of phones and computers (even runs on windows). i bought it 4 cell phones ago, back when i was a sony ericsson guy. i highly suggest you consider using it - even if you switch to windows and windows mobile somewhere down the line you'll be glad to have a license for this app handy (think: wireless remote control for every app in my computer, including actions when my phone rings like muting the music i'm blasting so i can hear the thing ring)
    good luck, and i hope you enjoyed my little rant,
    -bit
    N95-1 ---> N97-NAM ---> N900 ---> E7-00 + N900 (I use them both)
    (N95 was pretty good, N97 had potential but utterly failed to deliver, N900 is absurdly good. Those of you wondering, "should I try N900/Maemo/MeeGo"? The answer is a resounding YES)
