Moved from Oz to the Uk but can't access UK app store

Have moved from Australia to the uk and have changed my information in my iTunes store and registered it with a uk debit card etc. However when I go onto the app store it still shows Australian Apps and when I go to download them it says this appleid can only be used with the Uk store... How do I access the Uk store? I want my iPad, and iPhone, to automatically go to the uk store. When I click support at the bottom of the featured page it goes to a .com.au website.... It obviously thinks I'm still in Australia.
I also can't use bbc iplayer app, despite being in the uk... It says it's not supported in my country?!
I know there's a whole heap of threads about is but none that seem to address my problem directly. If you can help you'll be doing me a huge favour!
Thanks in advance!

First, on your phone: Settings>Store...sign out...now sign back in, then sync your phone while logged into the UK store on your computer...still using the same Apple ID, correct?

What do you mean by 'refusing from the system', if you are getting an error message then what does it say ?
For a credit card to have a chance of being accepted it needs to be registered to the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, and have been issued by a bank in the country where you and your iTunes account are. If it is and if you are getting a 'declined' message then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes Support (these are user-to-user forums) and see if they know why it's being declined : 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
If when trying to download you are getting a message about a 'problem with a previous purchase' then that implies that iTunes wasn't able to collect the money for your last purchase. If that is the case then you won't be able to download anything else (including app updates) until you've paid off what you owe : Pay an unpaid balance in the iTunes Store - Apple Support
If you aren't getting the 'problem with a previous purchase' message then try logging into your account (not when trying to download something) and see if you get the 'none' option so that you can remove the card's details and be able to download updates to your apps : Change or remove your payment information from your iTunes Store account (Apple ID) - Apple Support

How can I access my App Store now I have changed my apple ID

How can I access my App Store now I have changed to a new apple ID?

That wasn't a very good idea. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another or merge Apple IDs. Not for anyone. All of the content that you got free or bought with the old ID is forever associated with that ID. You cannot redownload or update any of it without the old Apple ID.

Can sign in with Apple ID, but can't connect to App Store for updates

My wife just received her new iPad on Friday. When she went to update the apps that indicated they needed to be updated, she was able to sign in with her Apple ID. However, after a few seconds of processing the message appears that her iPad was unable to connect to the App store. (She was connected to the internet through WiFi). The next day at the Apple Store, the same thing happened as well as to other users, including those at the Genius Bar so we are not alone. Any insights? We thought that by the end of the weekend the issue may have been resolved (high traffic / server overload???) but still locked out of the App store.

OK so here is what seems to be the problem -- Apps and under which account they were purchased / downloaded. My wife had downloaded a slew of apps under my Apple ID in the past, so when she attempted to sign in with her Apple ID there is now a conflict (this was not an issue before iOS 5.1 or so it seems). This simple fact totally prevents access to the App Store. This explains why my iPhone could connect to the App Store (it only has apps downloaded with my Apple ID) and hers could not.
So we sat down and made a list of all of the apps on her iPhone and iPad (the ones she wanted to keep), then went into iTunes and clicked on APPS (under Library in the left column). Once you are in there, a list of apps installed appears. Right click (option-click) on each app icon to GET INFO -- this displays which Apple ID account was used to download that particular app. (Thanks Rysz)
Thankfully all of the apps that were causing the conflict were free, so it was simply a matter of deleting these particular apps off of iTunes (on her iMac -- right click to delete) as well as her iPhone and iPad. Then all you need to do is re-download them when she is signed back into the App Store with her Apple ID.
After I deleted all of the apps, I again tried to sign in to the App Store to re-download the apps she wanted to replace. But I was still getting the dreaded error message stating "Can't Connect to App Store". So on her iPhone I went to Settings and reset the network connection, signed back in to our Airport WiFi network. Tried again, no luck. Signed out of the App store and re-signed in, and glory hallelujah -- I was now able to access the App Store and start the download process for both the iPad and iPhone (thanks Thom_D for the suggestion).
Once everything was back to normal, plugged each device in separately to her iMac and resynced in iTunes. Knock on wood, I think it is now working like before.
Hope this helps a fellow user out there.

Backups on the disk, but can't access via Time Machine

Time Machine runs without announcing any errors. Browsing the Time Machine drive in Finder, I can see that TM is actually making the backups. But when I enter Time Machine, I can't access any of the backups.
This began under Snow Leopard, but not immediately upon installation. The more immediate change was when I added a new drive to serve as the Time Machine drive. From looking at the disk in Finder, it looks like the backups are all there, back to the date I plugged in the new drive (Sept 7).
Can anyone tell me why this happened? I recognize I could reformat the drive and start over to see if things start working again, but is there any way to kickstart things and preserve the existing backups?

What, exactly, do you see? Do you see a Finder window, labelled +Today (Now)+ ? Is there a "cascade" of Finder windows behind it, but just dark shadows, and you can't click on them? Do you see the background full of stars, and are they moving?
Yes to all of the above; exactly.
There are some things that can cause problems with the "Star Wars" display itself.
One is, it doesn't have separate preferences, so it uses the Finder's instead. If you're using Pathfinder or another Finder substitute, turn the Finder back on.
I just use Finder.
If the Finder's preference file is corrupt, it can cause problems. Delete the file
*<your home folder>/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Finder.plist* and try again.
Done --- no change.
Try the things in item #E4 of the Time Machine - Troubleshooting *User Tip.*
Done -- no change.
I do appreciate your help. Any other suggestions?

I'm downloading the update but can't access the dock

I downloaded the upgrade and an icon was just on the dock but if i click on it , it doesn't do anything, is it downloading ok or do i need to do something else?

The download takes quite a while. You should see a progress bar under the Apps Store application.
When it is fully downloaded a window should open asking you if you want to install now.

I changed my I'd and password but for some reason it still shows my old ID and I can't access my app store. Please help

I changed my apple I'd and password because my old ID was not working, but for some reasons I can not get into my app store with the new ID and pass. Please help

Anybody can access the App Store - even without an Apple ID.
What are you saying? You cannot access your purchased apps with your new ID? If you are, that is the way that it works. If you set up a new Apple ID - you can't update the apps that you bought with the old ID. You have to continue to update the purchased apps with the old ID and password since purchases are always tied to the ID that made the purchases.
If you need to sign into your new ID you can do that in Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Apple ID. Tap th old ID and sign out then sign in with the new one.

Thanks for the help guys... iTunes is up and running (on my PC) however when I plug in the iphone it just doesn't connect to it, so I guess it must be itunes fault, however I have restarted my computer and this hasn't helped either
The iPhone is still stuck in recovery mode?
If the iPhone is not detected you will need to try other USB ports on the PC or try other USB cables. You could also try another PC/ Mac is you have one available to see if the PC is at fault.

I can connect to iTunes but can't connect to app store!!!!!!

I can connect to the iTunes store on my iPad but when I try to connect to the app store it says "Cannot connect to iTunes store". I have had my iPad for about half a year, and it has work fine since then. The last app I updated I think was minecraft.

Sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to update again
If that doesnt work - go to Settings>General>Date and Time - set the date ahead by a few months. Try to update again. If you get an error message of any kind - go back and change the date and time to automatic again. Then try again.

Update available but can't download mac app store

Mac app store says i got an update, but when i click the updates tab, says all software is up to date.
Xcode was updated not so long ago and i could never run the update, so i think that is the update it says i have.
I need that update for better stability and work better with my projects, and can't update because of this issue.
BTW my connection is too slow to download the whole xcode again. what do i do?

10.5.8 is Leopard, no Appstore.
10.6.6-8 is Snow Leopard, that's what you need.
10.7... is Lion (also Appstore ofcourse), but this OS is different. Why not upgrade to Snow Leopard first, and then decide later if you will (and can) go to Lion?

I am trying to upgrade to iPhoto 11 but can't get into App Store.

I am trying to upgrade to iPhoto 11 so it works with Maverick. but in App store the pervious owner of the computer name wants to be login for iPhoto. I keep login in but when i try to get the new iPhoto his name keeps coming up with the computer previous owners name. In the log in his user name/email is greyed out and it just wants his password. I cant remove his name. On the system setting it shows me as being logged into the App Store. I have gone to various discussion groups but none have covered this problem. suggestions?

You need to erase the Mac and start over. Everything is pretty much registered to the original owner's Apple ID. It is encoded in the software and you won't be able to update anything Mac App Store software without the original owners Apple ID. Plus everything of his that you have now is pirated software. The Terms of USe don't allow him to pass anything but the original version of OS X to you.

Can't access my App Store after new update

After installing the new update 6.0, I can't connect to my App Store. Please help

If you can't open the App Store, I suggest completely turning off your iOS device (holding the Sleep/Wake button) and turning it back on again. If that doesn't work, back up all your apps, music, movies, photos and any other data to iTunes and attempt a restore of your iOS device. This returns your device into factory state, so everything is erased. But if you back up everything first, it shouldn't be a problem.
Hope this helped!

I recently loaded OS 10.6.2. I can get on the internet but can't access email. I get a pop up that asks for my email passwd. I enter the passwd but it is rejected. My email provider checked everything from their end and said it was my software. Any ideas?

I recently installed 10.6.2, everything was fine for a few days. Last night I logged on to check email and got a new pop up window asking for my email account password. Its never came up before with the old OS or with the new OS prior to this point. I entered my password but it was rejected. After an 1 1/2 hours on the phone with my internet/email service provider it was determined that my password was good and the system was ok on their end. Access to the internet is not affected so I think its something wrong with the new OS. Any ideas?
thanks

Mac OS X v10.6: Mail.app won’t open, or "You can't use this version of Mail…" alert after installing Security Update 2012-004:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4424?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
Fellow user Grant Bennet-Alder offers this solution:
Some users have reported this problem if the Mail Application has been moved out of the top-level /Applications folder, or duplicated in another location.
When the Security Update is done, the old version of Mail is disabled.
The solution has been to:
1) make certain Mail is in the /Applications folder
2) There is no other copy anywhere else.
3) Once steps 1 and 2 have been done, Manually download and re-apply the Security Update (2012-004) by hand.
Security Update 2012-004 (Snow Leopard)
If the Mail.app has been LOST, it can be re-installed by applying the 10.6.8 version 1.1 combo update. But this update is quite large and it is usually not necessary:
Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1
