ITunes Store Account from other country

Hi
I am Swiss citizen. Howto rent Movies in iTunes Germany or iTunes America?
Background: in Swiss iTunes Store there are no movie and serials rentals.
Is this possible?

Then what way to go to buy in German iTunes store? Is there no way?
this comes from the horse's mouth (though in this case pertaining to the US store):
+From the itunes store terms of service:+
+"Purchases or rentals (as applicable) from the iTunes Store are available to you only in the United States, its territories, and possessions, and are not available in any other location. You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Store from outside of the available territory. Apple may use technologies to verify such compliance"+
IMHO is more legit, than downloading off torrent sites
for sure.
if i were you, i'd talk to Apple either via Apple telephone numbers or iTunes support
good computing

  • How to update applications coming from the itunes store of an other country?

    Hello,
    I am French but living in Belgium. On the iTunes store, I use a French credit card, so I am on the French iTunes store.
    I was able to switch to the Belgian iTunes store using my Belgian credit card to download applications which are only available on the Belgian iTunes store like the iOS application for my bank.
    Howerer I have activated iTunes match in order to have all my songs in the cloud.
    Since  that, I can't switch to the Belgian iTunes store anymore to update my "Belgian" applications.
    The only way to do it, is to cancel my iTunes Match subscription permanently or do you think there is an other way?
    If I create an other account on the Belgian store, it won't work, because there is DRM on the applications...
    thx
    kind regards,
    Gilles

    No, it means you switch from the US store to the other store. Afterwards you just switch back to the US store. You can theoretically have accounts in many different iTunes stores. Switching is simply logging out of one and logging into another after switching countries. There's a switch country link at the bottom of the iTunes Store.
    Personally, it seems it would be much simpler to send a check to all of your friends. Far less trouble than trying to open bank accounts and get credit cards from different countries unless you frequently travel to them and don't mind maintaining cash balances in different banks across the world. Not to mention getting credit cards. Here in Vancouver they won't give me a credit card unless I maintain a $5,000.00 minimum balance in my Canadian checking account. If I did that I'd hardly have much need for the charge card.

  • How do I move my iTunes Store account from Canada to the US?

    I recently moved from Canada to the US, but when I try to change my iTunes account from Canada to the US, I get an error: "Your request is temporarily unable to be processed." I've followed the instructions over and over, and contacted iTunes Store support, but it keeps happening. I've even de-authorized all the devices I had authorized for the account, and yet that still didn't fix the problem.
    This has been going on for three weeks and I'm getting totally exasperated. Apple has been totally unhelpful.
    Help?

    Adam,
    Get in touch with iTunes Customer Service at their web page.
    When you write to them, pls follow these guidelines:
    Do not refer to the prior interactions.  Explain the problem without emotion.
    Make clear that you have already executed the "Change Country" to the USA iTunes Store.
    Make clear that you are using a USA-issued credit card with a USA billing address, and that you were physically in the USA when you attempted to use it at the iTunes Store.
    Make clear that you have successfully used this same card at other e-commerce sites in the USA.  (If this is not already true, make it true by buying an MP3 for 99 cents at amazon.com)

  • HT1689 On my ipad, how do i change the store account from one country to another

    I keep getting a message to change the store account, sign out, then sign in from another store.

    Go to the App Store, Tap on the Featured tab. Swipe to the bottom of the screen and tap on your ID. Then tap View Apple ID. Enter your password. Go to Country/Region, and change the store in there.

  • ITunes store: Purchasing from other stores

    I'd like to purchase video content from the iTunes store,however I am registered with the Belgian store, and I cannot purchase from any other store. Am I limited only to this, or is there a way I can shop from the USA store for example?
      Windows XP  
      Windows XP  

    Although this question has been covered quite often:
    In order to buy from a certain country's iTMS, you do need
    either: a CC with a billing address in that country
    or: an address in that country plus a prepaid card/gift voucher issued by iTMS in that country.
    If you don't meet one of this conditions, there is no solution for you.
    -sorry but the copyright holders wanted it that way.

  • Changing iTunes store account to different country - subscriptions

    If i change my UK itunes account to one in Belgium, does that mean i lose all of my subcriptions ? I am currently subscrided to Martha Living magazine which is available in both itunes stores but am not sure what will happen to the remainder of my subcription once i switch my country on my account.

    Kay - I am about to start a 3 year period working in Belgium. I currently have a UK itunes account.
    If I create a new Belgium itunes account are there are any issues switching between the 2 accounts within itunes and across my mobile devices with respect to keeping all my content (inc apps)??
    Presumably if an app doesn't exist on a certain itunes store then I would need to sign-in to my old account periodically to update them?
    Although itunes t&c prohibit using their store when outside the geographical confines of the respective country, in practice, if I keep my uk itunes billing address then I could switch between the two??

  • Problems signing into itunes store account from windows vista

    I have recently downloaded the latest version of itunes for a new computer running Windows Vista. I already have an apple ID account to use with the store and have been able to access this on other computers, but every time I try to sign in on the new computer it has an error message that the "network connection has timed out". I have searched for help for this, which appears to be a common issue, and all the recommended solutions like checking firewall settings have not helped as I am still unable to sign in. My internet connection is fine, and I am able to access the store itself, just not my account.
    If anyone could help with this problem I would be very grateful.

    Excellent. If you ever want to uninstall that trial Norton, keep in mind that you need a special removal tool from Symantec. Simply uninstalling it via Add/Remove Programs does NOT delete it from your PC. It really is horrible software.

  • ITunes 11.0.3 and multiple iTunes Store accounts - any Idea

    Hello,
    I have an German and an Austrian iTunes Store Account. Main reason for that
    is that Apple does not allow you to transfer Apps bought from an account in one Country
    to an iTunes Store account from another country, although those countries may be
    members of the European Union.
    Anyway: Prior iTunes Version 11.0.3 handling Apps from two different accounts was
    relatively easy. I clicked on "Apps" on the left hand side panel in iTunes.
    All Apps would be then displayed.
    Then there was an "Check for Updates" Button. Click on that would display *only* the Apps
    that need update bought with the account that is *currently* signed into the iTunes Store
    and then  just click on the "Update All" Button and thats it. Then I would sign out and sign in
    with the other account, repeat the procedure described above and that's it.
    Now with iTunes 11.0.3 Apple made the entire thing a night mare. I click on Apps in the left hand
    iTunes panel. Then there is an "Updates" tab. You click on that and then all Apps needing an update
    from all iTune Accounts you have are displayed. You click on update all and then iTunes starts updating
    the Apps until it comes to the first App bought with a different iTunes Store Account. Then is stops with
    a warning message. Then you need to sign out and in. Then restart update process until it comes
    to an applications that is bought with a different iTunes account and so on and so on.
    Any idea or work-around how to get iTunes 11.0.3 to have the same behavour liek teh versiosn before ?
    Thank you!

    Is this the error your gettings?
    If so, remove the installer, and redownload the itunes set-up installer

  • Can I still use/sync/update my purchased apps if I change the country of my iTunes Store account for good? (PH-US)

    I'm planning to change the country of my iTunes Store account from the Philippine Store to the US. If I do, is it still possible for me to sync and update my apps purchased from the PH iTunes Store? And will I still be able to purchase in-app purchases?
    Thanks!
    - Stephen

    You can't change countries if you have a credit on your account - if you can't spend it then you can try contacting iTunes Support and ask them if they can remove the balance so that you can do so : 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

  • I just moved to the US from other country. How do I move my current apple id to US iTunes store?

    I just moved to the US from other country. How do I move my current apple id to US iTunes store?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Click on your account name in the top right corner of the iTunes store in the iTunes application on your computer, enter your password and click the "view account" button. Navigate to the Apple ID summary where you have the option to "change country or region".
    In order to change your location, you will need a credit card registered to an address in the location you are trying to change to.
    You cannot change your location if you have credit on your account, if you are unable to spend your credit and leave a balance of zero, contact Apple, which you can do through iTunes Store Support.

  • How do I change my Ipad to access Itunes store in a different country than the one I usually use and have my account with?

    I usually use the Itunes application on my Ipad in FRence and use the French Itunes store. I am now in Cyprus and after synchronising my Ipad there I now can access the US Itunes Store but my purchases are refused as my account is with the French Itunes store.  How do I either open an account with the US Itunes store or revert to the French Itunes store on my Ipad?

    synchronising is not the problem i think, you need a new US apple id. i only have a malaysian credit card but i have separate ids for US UK and Malaysia. i have travelled to these 3 countries and have home adresses in each country but for buying stuff, I use an iTunes store card instead of a credit card cos its easier. you do not need a credit card that must have billing address from the same country as the iTunes store. So I would suggest if you are currently based in the US go the nearest apple store buy an iTunes store card (i buy in multiples of US$100 with a credit card) and use your current US home address as the US iTunes address.
    so log off your french iTunes store account, create new US apple id for your iTunes store account using your current US address and then redeem your itunes store card and voila you are set to go. (did i mention you will also need a new separate email address for the new apple id) i have one each from gmail, yahoo and hotmail for each separate id.
    the only drawback is that when you want to do an update for the apps that you buy from the different iTunes store, you must log in to that iTunes store account ie if you buy an app from the US store you must log in and update with the US store id and to update the apps from the French store you must log off from the US store and log in again with the french store id.
    hope this makes sense to you.

  • How do I move my itunes account from one country to another?

    How do I move my itunes account from one country to another?  I set up my itunes account in the United States and now I live in England.  I would like to transfer my purchases from my US account to my British account and then download them onto my new ipod.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled Itunes and I have updated my Windows 7 operating system.  I have tried to get in touch with apple and the advisor said he could not help me.  Ideas? 

    Before you change the country, note the following:
    - you must use any remaining store credit on your account
    - download all purchased content
    - ensure you have no current rentals(if you do, you'll have to wait for them to expire)
    - provide a new payment(such as a credit or debit card) associated with a valid billing address in the UK or an iTunes Gift Card purchased in the UK
    - content purchased from the iTunes Store is country-specific. If you wish to upgrade any of your iTunes Store content to iTunes Plus, you'll need to do this before you change countries. The content you purchased while your account was set to the previous country will not be eligible for upgrade once you've changed countries.
    - after you change countries, you will no longer receive application update notifications in iTunes for the apps you purchased in your original country. However, you'll still receive update notifications on your iOS device for any applications installed on it. In addition, you'll be able to download previously purchased applications again for free if they are available on your new country's store. You will not be charged and the download will not appear on your Purchased page. If a previously purchased application is not available in your new country, you will not be able to download it again for free.
    - If you have an iTunes Match subscription, you can't change countries until the subscription has expired.
    - If you have purchased a Season Pass, you cannot change the country associated with your account until that season is done airing and the last episode of the season has been added to the iTunes Store.
    Taking the above into consideration, here's how to change your country:
    1. Open iTunes and click Sign In.
    2. Enter your iTunes Store account name and password, then click Account Info.
    3. On the Apple Account Information page, click Change Country or Region.
    4. Enter the updated information and save your changes.

    Can i use other credit card from other country to pay my unpaid bill in apple store?
    I cannot upadate or download bcoz of my unpaid bill!

    You can only use a credit card that is issued by a bank in the country where you and your iTunes account are based. If you don't have one of those then are iTunes gift cards available in your country ?
