ITunes & App Store after iOS5 in German

After installing iOS5 is displaying text in German.  All settings have the iPad language settings in English and we are currently in Hawaii where we live.  The iTunes account that the device is synced with is based in the US.  We previously lived in Germany, but moved 2 months ago.
I have restored the iPad erasing all previous data and the same problem occurs.
Both OS X Lion & iOS 5 have been horrible upgrades and nightmares overall. :-(

Have you tried logging out of your account by tapping on the id on the right-hand side of Settings > Store and then logging back in and seeing if that makes any difference ?

  • Can't download anything from itunes/app store after 5.0.1

    I've read a few discussions on this topic but have yet to find any solution that works, so I'm reposting hoping someone has an idea.
    We have an ipad 16gig, and recently updated to iOS 5.0.1. (via WiFi, this isn't a 3G model). Immediately after setting up after the update, the iPad can no longer update apps, download new apps, download iBooks, download songs, podcasts ... basically anything from the iTunes or App store. All are met with the message:
    "Unable to Download (name here) - (name here) could not be downloaded at this time." with a Done or Retry button.
    The same thing occurs for all apps, music, podcasts, etc... same message each time.
    During the setup after the update was installed, we agreed to the new iTunes/App Store agreement, so I don't think it's that case where iTunes can't do anything because the Agree option got lost somewhere. I also don't have any downloads pending that need to be paused.
    Solutions I have tried so far:
    1. Restarting and resetting the iPad, both via the power button, and holding down the power button / home button.
    2. Signing out of iTunes/App store, re-signing in, with two different Apple IDs.
    3. A full restore of the iPad from my computer via iTunes.
    4. Attempting to buy something free from iTunes or the App Store (somewhere this was suggested as a solution). Some descriptions of this solution implied it was to force itunes to ask you to agree to the new TOS, this hasn't happened, and we agreed to the new TOS when 5.0.1 started up.
    5. Resetting my router. Didn't think this was the issue but did it anyway.
    Googling the issue, apart from the above solutions, I've encountered something about "permissions" on a folder to which apps are downloaded being set wrong by the update, but I have no clue how to address that, it seemed to have something to do with "jailbreak" ipads of which this is not.
    I'm about ready to take it to the Apple store but I was hoping I could find something online first, and spare confusing some poor Apple employee.

    I found a solution, and it's horrible.
    1. Back up your data. I used iCloud, but I also made a restore file through itunes, though you CAN'T USE THAT RESTORE TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. It will just install the problem anew! Delightful!.
    And then,  basically do this: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 which translates to:
    2. Settings > General > Reset > Erase all data
    3. Set up your iPad as a new ipad - if you choose to restore from an old restore file, you'll just reinstall the original problem.
    4. Connect to iCloud to reclaim your iCloud stuffs.
    5. Spend the next hour annoyed and frustrated as you restore your music, photos, apps, etc... to what you think you had them.
    But miraculously, this let our ipad download apps again.
    Again, restoring from a backup will not fix the problem.
    All this speaks to some issue that requires the drive on the ipad to be reformatted with new permissions, or something, which is pretty **** annoying. Waiting to see the problem re-appear after it's finished syncing my music. Hurray!

  • Why does my iTunes / App store go to the German version when I travel in Austria?

    Since I updated to iOS 6 my iTunes Store and App Store are both going directly to the Austrian stores.  I am in Austria at the moment travelling. But how come I can't change back the Canadian stores?  I think someone dropped the ball on this one.

    No, go to "settings", "iTunes & App Stores" click on your "Apple ID:" should be some type of email address. Then hit "View Apple ID". Once you sign in w/ your password, hit "country or region" (even if it already shows the correct country) your basically reverifying. I'm guessing since you updated while on vacation your locations services were on thats why it changed countries. Anyway follow the steps update your payment info (you will only need the security code for your debit/credit card if it stayed the same). And you should be good!
    Good Luck !

  • Reviews in iTunes app store are all in german. i speak english

    but i live in switzerland.
    i need to select switzerland as country for billing information.
    dear apple, little switzerland has four official languges. not everyone speaks german.
    i don't want to see reviews in german. i can't read them. how can i break the relationship between country and language?

    Are you referring to the Customer Reviews? iTunes doesn't distinguish which language is used by the customer in writing the review so it can't filter out those you don't want to see. In fact someone could write one review and use many languages in it, but it seems those that speak German are the most vocal in the Swiss store.
    This is also a user forum. Responses are from other users of Apple products. It is mainly for other users helping you with a problem that they can fix. If you want to give feedback to Apple select Provide iTunes Feedback from the iTunes menu from within the iTunes application.

  • TS3297 Even after having data connectivity can't open iTunes,app store and iBooks

    Even after having data connectivity can't access iTunes ,app store,iBooks

    I have the same problem. The install seemed to go fine, it rebooted and the only APPLE app I can use is Safari and Itunes, The Mac Apple store freezes, Ibooks, Iphoto etc, all of them just lock up when I open them, even drop down items under the little Apple are frozen. I'm disgusted, any help would be appreciated.

  • Cannot access itunes and the app store after updating to iso6

    have just updated to ISO6 and now everytime try to go to itunes or app store the screen just comes up blank or get a message say it couldnot connect. have tryed resetting date as read that works but didnt for me, have still got maps and facebook ect  they seem to be fine but cant do anything with the itunes and the app store any ideas as i only did the update as the phone said to, so I am hoping there is a way to fix this or else its not worth having an iphone if you are un able to utlitise it.

    If you updated your existing account then try logging out of it on the iPad by tapping on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on the iPad.

  • How do you access updates to apps from the App store after changing to a new ID because the password on the old ID was changed and you don't know what it is now?

    How do you access updates to apps from the App store after changing to a new ID because the password on the old ID was changed by the former husband and you don't know what it is now?  And you set up your own new ID and account but can NOT access the updates, from the App store for the many apps that you already have, because they require that you sign in with that former now inaccessible ID and account and password?  Call it a problem of modern times and changing relationships, if you want to be charitable.

    So I guess it will only be new apps that I download that are allowed to give me their updates while 13 updates wait for me on an ID I can no longer access.
    Yes...  sorry.
    In the future, if need be, you can re download your purchases for free  >  Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Good rule of thumb is to back up your purchases regardless  >  Mac App Store: Backing up your app purchases

  • ITunes, app store, iBooks store, etc won't load and I can't figure out why. I tried rebooting and it didn't help. Everything else works fine. Help please?

    iTunes, app store , iBooks store, etc won't load and I don't know why. Everything else works fine, and I've rebooted it. The problem is still there and I know I have a good Internet connection. Help please?

    Have you tried disconnecting and re-connecting to your network ?. And when you say rebooted do you mean a reset ? If not then try that : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    You could also try closing those apps completely. From the home screen (i.e. not with any of those apps 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the iTunes, App Store and iBooks apps to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.

  • HT201210 i was in germany syncing some music when I did the OS6 update on my Ipad. Now my app store is totally in german!!! how do i get my english back??

    I was in Germany at the time I installed i06 on my i-pad. Now my app store is all in German! how do I get it back to English?  Reset, ? is there another way maybe?

    You can only upload music from your computer's iTunes, you can't do it from an iOS device - when you subscribe to iTunes Match on your computer it should have scanned your music library on it and matched or uploaded any non-iTunes purchased music to it.
    Do you have copies of those tracks anywhere e.g. on an iOS device or on your backup of your downloads/library ? If they are iTunes purchases then they should be in the cloud. If they were copied from CDs or bought from other sources then if they are only on an iOS device (i.e. you don't have them on a backup) then there are some programs listed half-way down this page which should be able to copy them back : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

  • I downloaded acdsee camera flash (us$0.99) in Hong Kong's app store, but i cannot find it in the app store after i changed to another iphone. it seems that the app is no longer available in HK, how can I get back the app?

    i downloaded acdsee camera flash (us$0.99) in Hong Kong's app store, but i cannot find it in the app store after i changed to another iphone. it seems that the app is no longer available in HK, how can I get back the app?

    First make sure you are searching the name correctly.
    If the app is no longer in the App Store it is no longer available for download. This happens when Apple has found the app violates the agreement with the developer or when the developer no longer wants the app listed in the App Store.
    If the app is truly no longer in the App Store your only option is to copy it from iTunes on the computer you normall sync with.

  • ITunes - App Store - There are updates available that ain't available?

    First of all, I'm starting to think that the iPhone ***** big time, but that's a whole other story...
    So, here's my issue: Apparently there are updates to my applications available. So says iTunes and also the App Store app on the iPhone, both of them reporting the same number of apps available.
    I'm quite sure that there was a button to "update all" on the iPhone on 2.0.1 and 2.0, but that seems to be missing? (but not the point anyway)
    Then, in iTunes, the applications view tells me that there are updates available. When I click that link on the lower right that usually redirects to the update page, iTunes tells me that there are no updates available for my account?!
    How can that be? Either there are or there ain't.
    Is there a way to fix that problem? I would have updated the applications trough the iPhone, but as there are many (44) and I would have do update them one-by-one, I'd like to go an easier way...
    I'm really patient, but I start to hate my iPhone. As it is now, it is just a ******* expensive piece of junk. :-((

    I have fixed a similar issue in my iTunes. Here is my thoughts on why it happened and the fix.
    I had recently added a second computer w/ iTunes with which my iPhone is now synching. I wanted to move my music library synching from work to home.
    On the 1st PC (@ Work) I was synching:
    Info, Contacts
    Info, Calendar
    Ringtones
    Music
    Podcasts
    Video
    Applications
    On the 2nd PC (@ Home) I began synching:
    Ringtones
    Music
    Video
    Applications (this nicely caused all of my iPhone Applications to be copied to this PC, in case of a need for a restore from home)
    After beginning synching on the 2nd PC (@ Home), I disabled synching on 1st PC of:
    Ringtones
    Music
    Video
    Applications (This apparently caused the issue)
    The issue with phantom updates was showing up on the 1st PC (@ Work), but I was not synching Applications here. Apparently, I had updated some Applications from the 2nd PC (@ Home) and iTunes detected this and saw a need to show that my iTunes Applications needed updating. Something not in synch between iPhone - iTunes - App Store I believe.
    The Fix:
    On the 1st PC (@ Work) I enabled synching of Applications and then performed a synch. The phantom updates went away. I noted during the synch that my iPhone apparently updated some of the applications in my iTunes library.
    I hope this helps or enlightens others having this difficulty.
