SWISS keyboard in the USA stores?
Is it possible to buy in the US stores (online or in NYC) a mac book air 13" 256gb with a SWISS - FR keyboard?
it is not possible to get a german keyboard layout product in the us.
it is not possible to order a german keyboard layout product in germany and deliver it to the us.
solution: it is possible to buy a spanish keyboard layout product (macbook, keyboards, etc.) and the key leyout will be the exact same. only difference is that the umlaut keys have obviously different characters (spanish) on them but if youre used to writing youll never recognize it until you look at the keyboard. all you need to do is to change the layout in the preferences.
tip: to make the alt-gr + Q working as @ sign, correct pipe key, {}, [] and other features, there is keyboard maestro to rewire the keys. if you need my presets let me know. fyi, i have two german layout keyboards in the US but i used my parents to forward them. this might work for keyboard but for actual products the price difference is dollar 1:1 to euro so its 20% cheaper to go with the spanish layout workaround in the US.
also: for refurbished spanish layout products you have to call the apple store hotline, online are only US layouts available.
big HINT for apple: make your keyboard layouts available everywhere. in the US you get spanish, french (awertz?), US and japanse (?!?)... seriously? ***. this is not helpful and its really not a big deal for such a big company, i assume german layout printed keyboards are produced in the same place all the others are produced too. even if it would cost me 20 bucks more it would still beat the currency difference + shipping cost + my parents time.
thanks.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
It's very difficult to find a Mac with a non-US keyboard at a US store, but Apple sells Macs with different keyboard layouts at the Apple Online Store if you want to > http://store.apple.com/us/mac/family/macbook-air
You can buy a MacBook Air with a French keyboard at the Apple Online Store, but if you want one with a Swiss keyboard, I recommend you to call the Apple Online Store to see if it's possible in the United States (1-800-MY-APPLE) -
I live in the US and want to buy a MacBook Air with norwegian keyboard in the Apple Store. Is that possible?
In earlier years you can go th an Apple Store, buy a Macbook Pro and ask for a replacement to a other type of keyboard. I do this 2-3 times in the last years for german keyboards. If you done this on the same day you bought the macbook, the replacement happened without charge anything. It was a great service.
Yesterday i go back to the same store like before and both - the sales representative and the guys an the GeniusBar told me - that this is not offered by Apple anymore. Because the US Apple Online Store do not offer other Keyboards the US-based keyboards and the German Apple Online Store do not deliver to other countries the final conglusion from the Apple Stuff was:
Flight to germany, but it over their.
I see here in the Support community a lot of questions about norwegian, german and other kind of keyboards they want to buy in the US. Their is obviously a need for this. And from the logistic standpoint, it should be easy for Apple to offer that in the Online Stores itself.
For me the conglusaion is: I stay with my old Macbook Pro and hope i need no replacement within the next years. To order it in germany, ship it to a friend, pay taxes twice (in germany and vur customers) plus shipment, make it to expensive (bottonline: 600-800$ more than buy it in the US) make no sense to me. -

How do I add the USA store. I am logged in to UK store for past purchases and I don't want to lose them.
It is semantics, but most of us from the Americas consider we are Americans by virtue of the continents of our birth, as are folks from the other continents residents of that continent*. The word for folks from the US in Spanish is estadounidense, United Statesonians. In my mind I am soon to be Statesonian.
*Aside from the fact that there is but one country on the continent of Australia and that the majority of Antaricans are penguins! -
While in Japan on a trip, I updated my iPhone to iOS6. Now, when I try to update my apps, I'm told that my account is not good in the Japan store I must switch to the USA store. How do I do that so I can download and update apps at home in the USA?
Your Apple ID is tied to the US store. Log out of the store, then trying logging back in.

How can I swicth stores in order to update or purchase apps.
I am currently in a different country and I do not know why it changed stores to the local country store. I need to change it to the USA store to perfom updates and purchases?
Can anyone help?
Thank youHere's a little more information from a previous post:
iTunes Store content is country specific. When you change countries, you no longer receive app update notifications on your iOS device or in iTunes for the apps you purchased in your original country, nor do those Apps appear on your new country's Purchased page.
However, you will still be able to download those applications again for free if they are present on your new country's store (even if they are updated).You will not be charged and the download will not appear on your Purchased page. If a previously purchased app is not available in your new country, you will not be able to download it again.
The following article describes how to review your account's purchase history so that you may view the titles of the Apps you previously purchased:

I get this error message when redeeming an app from the apple "Aproved" website "Appexchanger" which is when you check out free apps and get credits to get paid apps, but i am in canada and everytime i go to redeem one i get "This code is only valid for customers of the USA Store." i think this is unfair because ive done what theve asked and theres nothing on the site that says "US ONLY" and the people who made it wont even contact me back! Please help i just want some apps!
Just FYI, Appexchanger is not "approved" by Apple in any way that I can detect. Apple does not appear to have any connection of any sort with that company other than as a customer.
This company looks to me to be nothing more than a way to harvest email addresses and other content information to sell to other companies, getting you onto all sorts of spam lists. I don't for one minute believe their claim that they won't sell your information (and if they don't, it's s good bet at least one if nor more of the developers will). But in any case, as Jay said, any problems or issues you may have with that company will have to be taken up with them. This is not an Apple issue.

Is it possible for me and i'm from egypt to order a macbook pro online from the usa store ?
is it possible for me and i'm from egypt to order a macbook pro online from the usa store and have it shipped to me to egypt cause the egyptian store has no online ordering ?
I believe you need a USA attached credit card. The easiest way is to ask. This is a user to user forum. You are not talking to Apple here.

Trying to update APPS on the husbands iphone 4 and getting a message stating that these purchases are only allowed in the USA store..We live in Sweden but have an account USA...My phone works fine...Try to change account back to Sweden but it states that we have unwatched rentals...which we dont have..
Confused...Suggestions?
Thanks
DavidYou must have a separate Apple ID registered in the other store along with a valid bank-issued charge card in the other country, and a legal billing address in the other country.
Sorry... But... You cannot use other countries itunes stores.
You must be within the Country with a Valid Billing Address and Credit Card for that Country to use the iTunes Store of that Country..

Hi. My id country was Saudi Arabia and I bought lots of apps from it. Now I moved to USA and changed my id counrty. the problem now is that every app that I buy in the USA store and I had already bought in the Saudi store won't appear on my purchased list
Tell me exactly how much you have in your store credit and I"ll let you know the best solution.
Also, I'm not 100% sure, but when you switch back to S.A., Apple MAY track your IP and still give you probs if they figure you're trying to get around this problem without moving out of America. But we won't know for 100% until we try it.
If your store change is less than the price of a single song, then you can ask the iTS support to just cash-out that balance. They'll probably send you a response to reverify this first though.

Once you change back to S.A. please let us know if you can still see the purchases in the Cloud or not from your US I.P. address as I'm curious if they've fixed this exploit fully or not. -
I tried to install an app from Channel 4 in the UK and got a message that my account would not allow that. Now I appear to be permanently connected to the UK ITunes Store. How to get back to the USA store?
Never mind, after about 20 minutes it switched back by itself.

I cannot access the itunes app store. I end up at a Japan site, where I do not have an account. It tells me to go to the USA store, but how?
Try going to the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app on your iPad and tap on your account id, tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account, and then select the Country/Region section and select the USA.
