Unable to purchase Australian apps on UK phone

I live in Australia and I went to the UK for a holiday. I had to buy a new iPhone while I was over in the UK but since returning to Australia I have been unable to purchase apps because my apple ID is for the Australian store. How can I fix this?

I am having the same issues with both my iPad 1 and my iPhone 4S.  It hangs saying "waiting" for sometimes hours or even over night.  But just now it took 20mins to update 5 items on my iPhone but currently racking up 1 hour on my ipad1.  Been having this issue since Sunday also.

  • HT2589 I am unable to buy and app. My phone prompts me to add a credit card in order to purchase app although i have $25 in the account.  Any suggestions?

    Why do I get a prompt to add a credit card to my account in order to purchase an app?  I have $25 in my account to use and I do not want to add a credit card.

  • Unable to purchase - iOS6 app store problem

    For the last three days whenever I try to either update a previously purchased app or purchase a new one I get the error message:
    Unable to purchase please try again at a later time.
    This is on an iPhone 4 which has been upgraded to iOS 6 and is a 'Verizon iPhone.
    The phone is set up to only attempt app downloads when on WiFi.
    I have tried opening and closing the app store app and restarting the iPhone - so far no help. I have alos logged out of itunes and logged back in. again no help.

    It occurred to me that I needed to go back over everything I had done with the phone for the past few days. I remembered deciding to give the new podcast app a try. I selected several podcasts I wanted to listen to and even subscribe to. I started the download process but it would seem to complete and then require restarting.
    I opened the podcast app, and deleted everything I had added and turned of ll subscriptions. After that there were no further problems with the App Store. I would guess that the podcast app was somehow bumping the connection to itunes so that the App Store couldn't connect.

  • IPad saying that it is unable to purchase in apps purchases

    My Ipad was working fine, i was able to make in app purchases etc. My grandson was visiting and wanted to play minecraft, so put his apple ID in so he could download hos content to my ipad, played his game for the visit, then deleted all details of his itunes acount when he left. He at no point downloaded anythng esle but minecraft.
    Now however, when i try and make in app purchases on my account with apps downloaded with my own ID I get the following
    "Unable to Purchase. This item is for an app that was purchased by a different apple ID. To buy this item with this apple ID you must first purchase the app".
    I have purchesed the app. I really dont fancy starting agian. As I said ipad was fine until we did this minecraft thing.
    Any suggestions??

    The message would indicate the the app was not purchased with that account.
    You can try:
    - Go to Settings>iTunes and App Store and sign out
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost       
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Go to itunes and App Store and sign in
    - Restore from backup. See:                                                
    iOS: How to back up                                                                                     
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             

  • Anyone unable to use any apps after updating phone to OS 4.3.3

    I just updated my iPhone 4 to the new OS 4.3.3.  After the restart I couldn't start up any of the apps on my phone.  Anyone have the same problem or know how I can fix this?  Thanks!

    Okies great, that will most likely be linked to an AppleID confliction, which should be a relatively easy fix.
    First of all sign out of your AppleID on the device as mentioned previously. Within iTunes on the computer you sync with make sure you are logged into the very same AppleID. If this is logged in, connect up your iPhone and before allowing it to sync log back in under Settings -> Store.
    When the phone is connected first of all we'll want to do a Transfer of Purchases (On Windows Right Click on the Device Name on the left, on OS X Ctrl+Click). This will transfer all App Purchases into iTunes (note an Apps tab will appear under the Library heading if so, listing all Applications).
    Select the Device and navigate to the Apps Tab for the phone. Make sure the 'Sync Apps' tab is selected and select all the Apps you would like to Sync and then hit the Apply/Sync button down the bottom.
    This 'should' hopefully force the Apps to respond correctly again

  • Unable to purchase/download apps to new iphone 5c

    Since I bought my iphone 5c, I have not been able to purchase any new apps, tones or music.  I will click on 'buy' and I'm prompted for my password, I enter password and nothing happens.  I have logged out and back into to apple ID and have restarted phone multiple times. Any ideas?

  • Unable to purchase from app catalog

    I apologize if I am posting in the wrong section.
    I am attempting to add my debit card information in the hopes that I will be able to purchase something from the app catalog. Upon entering my information I receive the following error:
    Payment Failed
    We cannot process your payment.
    Contact your financial institution.
    PMT04001
    I have done a partial erase, a full erase, and even used webOS Doctor. Today, I contacted my financial institute as suggested and I was told that "Palm Inc." had sent requests for $0, however, the request must be $1.00 before it can be processed. Apparently. I was also told to visit the Palm website and attempt to solve my problem that way.
    I have discussed this problem on Palm's Live Chat twice, used some Google-fu, searched several forums, and never received a definitive answer. So, I am posting this as a last resort. I do not enjoy bothering people with my problems, but this has me rather confused.
    Also, my debit card is connected to a savings account. Would a checking account solve this problem? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
    Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

    Unfortunately, this is still going on.
    My card suddenly stopped working in the App Catalog within the last 3-4 weeks, and now the details I enter are no longer being accepted - even though the exact same card and details are working fine in iTunes, Paypal, and Amazon...
    Nothing has changed. Nothing at all. And yet my Palm Pre 2 is no longer accepting it, just like that.
    I've tried wiping everything, even using the Doctor to start from scratch. No joy at all.
    I went through a lot of trouble to get this phone working, its very disappointing to suddenly have it stop accepting my credit card with the same stupid PMT04001 error every time. =/

    I have down loaded Watch ABC and the app is trying to load but won't finish. I have not been able to delete the app since it is trying to load. It continues to drain my phone battery.

  • TS1702 Unable to purchase in-app products

    So I just got me a Mini 16GB Black B Ipad, and I've gone through the set up. I've logged out, turned it off, turned it back on and logged in, I've even followed some of the go to restrictions make code etc and still nothing. It comes up with """ Your Purchase Could Not Be Completed, For information go to www.apple.com/support/itunes/ww/ """ But I can't find anything on there that tells me why it can't go ahead with the purchase. Does this to more than one app.
