ITunes store not available in my country

Hello Apple mate! I found a big problem on my iPad's App Store.
Last month I found that the App Store appeared a message "App Store is currently unavailable in Malaysian store", I thought that it can be back very soon.
But after a month the same problem come out...
What is apple planning to Malaysian users?? My friends also met this problem. Or can anyone help me to solve this issue?
Thank you.

Unless you can show some form of residency you cannot buy from another country's store. The question on cross store purchasing is asked frequently so I'll just quote the most complete answer (courtesy of Dave Sawyer) from the many given:
In order to buy from any given country's iTunes Music Store, you must have either:
a) a credit card with a billing address in that country, or
b) a mailing address in that country and a gift certificate or a prepaid card that was bought in that country.
If you cannot fulfill one of these two sets of conditions, you will not be able to purchase from any given country's iTMS.
.......this is due to restrictions placed on Apple by the record companies and other rights holders (who are often completely different from country to country and so all require their own individual negotiations and contracts), not by Apple's choice. And this also applies to all the legal download stores that carry major-label content, not just the iTMS.

Itunes music store not available in your country yet.

I just did a clean reinstall of OS 10.3.5, and when I try to access the music store I get
"itunes music store not available in your country yet.
You will be able to browse and listen to previews but wont be able to purchase music. To browse music store, select a country below."
So I select United States and nothing happens.
I am in the US and have an itunes account.
The itunes version is 4.2.
Also, what is the highest itunes version I can use with 10.3.5?
I am held down to this OS version because of some other software on my mac that won't work with anything higher than 10.3.5.
thanks
roger c.

First, the iTunes Store has required iTunes 6 at minimum for quite a while now. So you're going to have to upgrade from iTunes 4.2. If you want to run iTunes 7, you'll need to get to Mac OS X 10.3.9. Otherwise you can download iTunes 6.0.5 here, but you won't be able to purchase movies or (I believe) videos unless you have iTunes 7. There's also no guarantee how long iTunes 6 will work.
Second, you've posted in the iTunes for Windows forum. Normally you'll get the quickest and most accurate responses if you post in the iTunes for Mac forum.

No.
If there is no itunes store in your country then you cannot use the itunes store.

Only in my Wish List = itunes store not available?

Hi,
With my ATV2 ......... Recently when I click on a film in my "Wish List" I am getting "itunes store not available ,try again later"............however, if I select the film from film list or search I can watch it - so the itunes store IS available!! This never used to be a problem and I could always watch trailers by clicking on the film in my Wish List.
It is nice to determine which movies to watch by checking out the trailer directly from my Wish List as I have a LOT of films in there ready to go.
Anyone got any suggestion - I would be most greatful .
Regards
Derro

Apple itunes store not available

When I try to order a movie, it keeps saying apple itunes store not available. I can watch netflix, itunes radio works, geinus does not work, just can not order movies. I can preview them just can't order movies. It get stuck when I try to sign in to itunes. The screen get stuck and I have to unplug and plug back in to clear screen. HELP

Found that my ATT Uverse router's Firewall was set up to block Applications, Pinholes and DMZ Had been activated. Once I added the Apple TV to the list, for all programs, it started working. In all probability AT&T and/or Apple software updates probably created the issue.

Itunes store not available message when trying to play purchased programs

When I try to play one of the tv series purchased on itunes I get a message 'itunes store not available, try again later'. All other purchased tv shows and movies play just fine. Can anyone help?

I'm having the same problem. One TV series refuses to stream on the Apple TV, stating the iTunes store is unavailable. All other purchased content streams fine on the Apple TV.
I can download the TV series in iTunes on the computer, then stream from the computer to the TV. That works, but not when streaming directly over the Internet without a computer.
I have engaged Apple Support, but so far they have been pretty useless in assisting me. I have sent them screenshots, hand-held videos of the problem, descriptions. This is insanely frustrating and very disappointing.

Itunes store not available to download

i rented a movie (so the store IS available if you want to spend MONEY!), but everytime i try to download the movie, i get a message that says "itunes store not available, try later"... if i had known that, i would have just driven to the **** store and rented the movie there!! i tried restarting, tried newest version of itunes... nothing. i also see some security issues that apply to windows, i checked my internet connections, security, it's all fine... i have no problems with anything else... and i was able to download stuff yesterday!

I have been having the exact same problem!! I purchased 3 songs a couple of weeks ago, and 2 downloaded, and the third will not. Everytime I try checking for available purchases it gives me "the iTunes store is not available. Please try again later." A couple of days ago I tried downloading a free song, which worked, so I thought maybe it would work and I rented a movie. Well, the movie won't download and I got the same message. And, of course, I have been charged for both the song and movie that I purchased but cannot access for anything. I even talked on the phone with an Apple representative for an hour and achieved nothing. I emailed Apple, was given instructions, which I completed, wrote them back (because this is what the email said to do if the instructions didn't work) and got the same set of instructions as a reply!! So frustrating. Fix this or give us our money back!!!

ITunes Store not available in my counry...

Hey everyone... Can ppl pls help me, I am from South Africa (SA) and the is not an online store, however i want to create an account and purchase music ect ect however i cant... Pls Can u ppl help... Would be very much appreciated...
David

Sorry your country does not have an iTunes store but you cannot purchase anything from an iTunes store outside of the country in which you live and have a billing address as mentioned in the Terms of Sale.
"You agree not to use or attempt to use the Service from outside of the available territory, and that iTunes may use technologies to verify your compliance."
The Terms of Use for the iTMS state that you agree that you won't attempt to make purchases from outside the store's country in which you reside. The chance is small that Apple will disable your account, but just be aware that it is possible.
They certainly won't support your use of the US iTMS from outside the USA if you do have any problems.

Content available in iTunes Store NOT available via AppleTV?

I'm sure this has been answered a thousand times over, but it's perplexing me and I found I can get answers quickly from the folks here.
Why is it that movies and TV shows that show up as available for rental or purchase in the iTunes Store, don't show up the same natively in the AppleTV interface?
For example, I missed last night's episode of the show "Breaking Bad." I can find it and download it just fine from the iTunes Store in iTunes, but when I search for that same show via the on-screen search on the AppleTV I yield no results. It doesn't find the show at all or even any reference to the network AMC. I see another AMC show "Mad Men" in iTunes but again not in the search function on the AppleTV. I even checked on my iPhone and indeed BOTH shows are available to download to my iPhone!
Do these not connect to the same database of shows? Why can I download something from my computer and stream it via Airplay but not just rent the content straight from the AppleTV? Is this a limitation of iOS or does it solely have to do with streaming vs. downloading?
Any insight is appreciated. Thanks!

I see. No internal hard drive so, streaming only.
Any idea if it's up to the networks to decide if content is purchase only?
Well, that's a real bummer. Certainly limits some of the usefulness of the ATV and it's connection to the iTunes Store if has to be tethered to a PC to access all the available content.
Thanks for the reply!

Apple TV: itunes store not available

I'm living in jena, Germany. Where can I find any support message (for example "maintanance until..." if the store is not working?
How can I get this kind of information in advance?

Oh no, the problem is back! On Apple TV when I click on "TF1 JT de 20h" in favorites just now, I get
If I access the same podcast from the Search menu, then I get
However, the podcast is definitely available on the iTunes Store, because I just downloaded it in iTunes:
Any brilliant suggestions as to how I may remedy this?
Many thanks in advance.

Since the latest update I have not been able to log into the iTunes store. I get the message that the iTunes store is not available. Nothing I have done including uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes has helped.
Any suggestions?
