Itunes and app store in different countries
I have moved to Canada from the UK, emptied my credit from UK and changed my iTunes to Canada (with correct billing address and local credit card). I have tried every trick to get AppStore to join me in Canada but it will not. Can anyone recommend anything except resetting everything because I don't want the latest IOS for fear of slowing my iphone right down!
Hi Greatcates,
I'm sorry to hear you are having this issue with the location settings on your accounts. I also apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing. Generally, the location/country for all the Store services should change at the same time, as detailed in the following article:
Change the country of your iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, and Mac App Store account - Apple Support
If one or more of the Store services did not change their location/country, you may find the information and troubleshooting steps outlined in the following article helpful:
Can't change the country of your iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, or Mac App Store account - Apple Support
Sincerely,
- Brenden

ITunes and app store in different language
So I got a refurbished phone from apple cause something went wrong with the last one. But now the new phone is in a different language when I go to the app store and iTunes. Any reason it's like this? In settings it's all in English. Att couldn't help so I might have to take it back to apple if I don't find a solution. Anyone have any ideas?
Try to download something. Enter your iTunes username and password, despite it being for another country. It should then correct itself.

My kids now each have an itouch, should we all have different apple ids even if I am paying for all itunes and app store purchases? what about icloud? I would like to share itunes and app purchases, but not necessarily photos...help please!
The recommended solution for most families is to share the same Apple ID for iTunes and App Store purchases, so you can share your purchases, but us different IDs for iMessage, FaceTime and iCloud. With this arrangement, each person can automatically download purchases made on the shared ID (by turning this feature on in Settings>iTunes & App Stores), while keeping their FaceTime calls, text messages and iCloud data (including photo stream) separated. There is no requirement that the ID you use for purchasing be the same as the ID you use for these other services.

HT5100 Hi, help my ITunes and App store is in a different language
Hello my ITUnes and App store are in different language how can I change this pls?
As far as I know the language of the two stores (iTunes and the App Store) can't be changed - they will be in the language of the country where your account is based (if they aren't correct then try logging out of your account on the iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store and then log back in).

I am currently living part time in the US and part time in Brazil. I am in Brazil at this moment and will be here till January.

How do I change them back to the English stores so I can use them?

What would cause no browser to find internet, but iTunes and App Store work?
I am able to go to Apple iTunes Store, Apple App Store and check for Software Updates, but can't connect to Internet through Safari, Firefox or Google Chrome. What would be the reason? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Jodmcc1What happens when you try to load a page in a web browser? Is there some kind of error message, and if so, what does it say? Have you tried multiple different pages, with the same results? What about Mail - do you use that, and if so, is it able to connect?
I notice there's a disparity between the short text preview of your post and what is actually showing. I'm not sure whether that's because you edited the post or what, but you had (at some point) said:
if I can access both the iTunes and App Stores and download virus definitions
The question in my mind is, what virus definitions? What anti-virus software do you have installed? Have you tried disabling it to see if the problem goes away?
Edit: Ahh, and now I can see the post where you said that, whereas it wasn't showing up at all before. This forum software is having serious problems this week! -
I changed my Apple ID to my new email address successfully for the iTunes and App store but it won't work for iCloud and it won't recognize my password. I read that this can't be done. How am I supposed to get into iCloud? I plan on getting rid of my old email address which is my old Apple ID so how is that going to work?
Same question Wish someone had replied!
I changed my Apple ID to my new email and now cannot find any way to access icloud. Unfortunately I had allowed icloud to hijack my airbook files, so of course I am afraid I will lose them tomorrow when I exchange my iphone for a new one and cannot keep an icloud account i cannot access. What a poor sync system! Really atypical for apple! -
Just bought a new iPhone and am having trouble with iTunes and App Store. I can log in to Cloud, iTunes, and app store but once I try to download, it says "Youe apple id has been disabled". I've reset my password three times and have no issue on my Pad.

Why is my Apple ID not working in iTunes or App Store on my iPhone? When I try to buy apps or music it asks for Apple ID so I enter my info and nothing happens. When I go to settings/iTunes App Store my Apple ID is not there. When I enter my ID and password it does not save or link to account. I do not have this problem with iPad ID is stored and can be used in App Store and iTunes. I have just upgraded to 5c and it's still a problem.

When fist setting up your new iphone you will be asked to log in with an apple id and password. If this did not happen you can then do as you suggested going to settings to itunes and app store and add your apple id login. This apple id login must have already been created for the iphone to accept it. If this apple id is already created but is not being accepted by your iphone you then should shut down your iphone and restart the device.
Good luck. -

How do I turn off the Genius app in App Store. I've gone to Settings/Privacy/Location Services/System Services then swiped Genius for apps 'off''. Also, I've gone to Settings/ITunes and App Stores/Click on AppleID/View Apple ID and then turn off Genius. Still nothing has worked. I'm still stuck with Genius offering the same apps to me. Mind you, once I click on the App Store there is nothing I can do but swipe left and right. There's absolutely nothing at the bottom of the screen like a features tab, nothing. There is, however, a categories button at the top, but that's it. Irrelevant.
FWIW, I just got off the phone with Apple technical support about this. I use Genuis for creating playlists, so I don't want to disable it, but Apple support confirmed that there is no way to avoid syncing Genius data without disabling Genius altogether. I'd read somewhere else that subscribing to iTunes Match might allow you to avoid this, but that is NOT the case, as I've confirmed, and Apple support has confirmed. For me, it routinely syncs thousands genius of items, so I have to allow a lot of time for my manual syncs.

For some reason the Apple ID window in iTunes and App Store now seems to suddenly have a character number constraint which prevents me using my 29 character Apple ID. As a result I am unable to enter the final few characters of my Apple ID which I have had for many years. Does anyone know what has caused this?
You need to ask Apple for assistance with getting back into your old ID. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to resolve this issue through the Account Security team, fill out and submit this form.

ITunes and App Store icons gone from home screen
The iTunes and App Store icons have disappeared from my home screen (and no...I did not inadvertently delete them). Any ideas on how to restore them (and the links)? Thanks...

Try looking at home screen number 2 (drag across to it or click the little silver ball at the bottom) -
Why is the Itunes and App stores in Chinese?
I just received an Ipad 2. I had my apple password reset, and now the Itunes and App stores are appeaing in Chinese. What do I have to do to get them in English?
Thanks. Try signing out of your iTunes Store account there in the iTunes & App Store settings, restart your iPad:

(possibly necessary but can't hurt), then sign back into your iTunes Store account and see if that's fixed the problem.
