Want more content in the Canadian Apple Store!  Can I help?

I've been getting into downloading and watching shows (granted only way to watch at the moment is via my iPhone and AV cables, but that's another annoyance about iTunes Store - No Linux version)
Out of the shows that my family is watching iTunes Canada only has about 1%. I see the US and UK stores have a lot more of what we want, about 10%, but I'm unable to download/purchase from there because of my home address. I already, one a week, add show requests to the iTunes Requests link. But I want to do more to get my favourite shows into iTunes Store (Canada).
Anyone have any ideas, other than pounding the "Feedback" forms with requests? Is there a way to talk or advertise and bring the requests to the studios? Do the studios have to request to iTunes or is it the other way around? or Both?

Pounding the Apple feedback forms will do no good. The content and relative lack thereof is totally under the control of the various entities that own the rights to distribution of said content in Canada, i.e the record labels, movie studios, etc. It's them you need to be pounding with feedback. Apple would like nothing better than to be able to provide all the content there is, but it's completely up to the owners of the content.

  • Stuck in the Canadian Apple store!

    Hi,
    Can someone please tell me how to rectify this problem? I'm stuck in the Canadian Apple store, and I need to move to the US, the system keeps telling me I have seasons passes that I have not expired yet, but they are old shows at this point. Apparently, you have to wait 30 days after the pass has expired. I just want out of the store, any suggestions?
    Thank you so much, Frank

    Change iTunes Store Country on an iDevice
    1. Tap Settings;
    2. Tap iTunes & App Stores;
    3. Tap View Apple ID;
    4. Enter your user name and password;
    5. Tap Country/Region;
    6. Tap Change Country/Region;
    7. Select the region where you will be located;
    8. Tap Done.
    Also, see How to Change Your iTunes Store Account Location | eHow.com.
    If you are in iTunes, then sign out of your Canadian account and log back in with your US account's Apple ID. If you don't have one, then you will need to create one which requires a US bank issued credit card and a valid US billing address plus an Apple ID using your US email address.

  • How do you switch to the Canadian apple store

    I live in Canada and I wanted to get an app you can only get in the USA, so I switched to the American apple store and tried to buy it.. Then it said I have to switch to the Canadian apple store to get it but when I do I can't get the app!! How can I get the app??

    You can only purchase items from the country's store in which you are located and your account, including the payment method has to be associated with that country. Apple checks the public IP address used by the iPod/computer to determine the country in which you are located.

  • Why isn't the Murfie app available on the Canadian Apple store site yet?re

    I recently became a member of Murfie which enables me to store my CDs digitally on their site and stream them from anywhere I happen to be, I can also buy used CDs from other members .
    They have a digital app so you can stream your music from their site.
    Their app is available in the U.S. store but not the Canadian store.
    Just wondering why that would be so.

    OK, then perhaps your web/marketing folks should alter this statement on your web site:
    Unlimited trading with other Murfie members
    to say "Unlimited trading of your physical CDs with other members" to make it more clear what services you actually offer. Being right after the "lossless download formats" statement rather implies that you are allowing trading of the digital copies as well as the physical CDs.
    Regards.

  • IPhone 5 power button issue .Apple store can't help !

    I have an issue with my power button on my iPhone 5.It works perfectly sometimes and sometimes it doesn't .I have to press it 2,3 times to get it work .I took it to the Apple store and it worked perfectly there so they said they can't replace it unless they see the problem and they are right . But I don't know what to do it does it sometimes ,how am I going to go there in the right time .Do you have any other suggestions ? Thank you.

    You can try calling an Apple support number for your location: http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 and see if they can help.  Otherwise, when it starts acting up take it to an Apple store genius bar.
    But try the support line first and see what help they offer.

  • I can't get into the itunes music store - can anyone help?

    When I try to get to the itunes music store, I get the following error message:
    itunes could not connect to the music store. The network connection timed out. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active. Then try again.
    I don't understand what this means, and I don't know how to do what it is telling me to fix it. I'd appreciate any advice anyone can offer. Please be very specific, because I don't have lots of computer knowledge.

    Were you connecting regulary up until a week ago? I have noticed that I have gotten a lot of those messages tonight. May the iTune site is very busy? (a lot of iTunes cards given out today)
    I closed iTunes and then re-opened and it helped. My connections have been intermittent at best tonight.

  • IPod touch 4 gives message "Cannot Download" "there is not enough available storage to download...You can manage your storage in settings." when trying to update or install one but not all apps. I have more storage than the app takes. Can u help?

    iPod touch 4 gives message "Cannot Download" "there is not enough available storage to download...You can manage your storage in settings." when trying to update or install one of the apps, but not other apps.  I have more space available than needed for the app.  What do I need to do to fix this problem?  Do I need to completely reset this device as new and, if so, how should I do that? 

    You need to delete some item (apps, music, photos etc) from the iPod,.However, sometime files get corrupt. To determine that connect the iPod to your computer and click on the iPod under Devices in iTunes. How much storage is used by the "other" category. If over 1 1/2 GB that indicates corrupted files.
    To get the "other" down to normal value you need to restore your iPod usually restoring from backup works but sometimes restoring to factory settings.new iPod is required./

  • Can a Canadian buy a refurbished macbook of the american apple store?

    It seems that the Canadian apple store has only expensive refurbished macbooks that I can't afford. Will I be able to buy a refurbished macbook of the American site and have it shipped to my home a address (in Canada) since the refurbished macbooks are cheaper? If its not possible, can someone recommend a laptop thats under $850 that is good for photo editing?

    No. You must be in the US in order to access the US store. The US store will not ship to Canada.
    Otherwise you could look for something on eBay.
    This is the only refurbished product available for $850 USD:
    *Refurbished MacBook 2.26GHz Intel Core 2 Duo*
    13.3-inch LED-backlit glossy widescreen display
    
2GB memory

    250GB hard drive
    
NVIDIA GeForce 9400M graphics
    
Built-in 7-hour battery

  • Canadian Apple Store

    I was wondering if any one knows why the Canadian apple store has decided not to carry the Iphone? our local store has about 10 on display but cant sell them.
    its a pain as I recieved $300.00 in gift cards for Christmas to put towards the phone

    The Canadian Apple Store online does not list gift cards as a payment option.
    http://store.apple.com/ca/help/payments?mco=MTg4Mjg4ODk
    Whereas the US store does list gift cards as an option. We are the same here in the UK - Apple gift cards can't be used online, only in retail Apple Stores
    We can however use iTunes gift cards for apps - hurrah!!
    I could be wrong as like you I don't buy on the Canadian online store. Perhaps the best thing is for the OP to phone the order line and enquire.

  • Canadian Apple Store Montreal

    Since I am traveling to Canada Montréal from Europe, I was thinking of purchasing a MacBook from the Canadian Apple store. And I have a few questions about that:
    First of all, if I go to the Canadian apple store website, I see the prices in dollars. But are the prices in the actual apple store in Montreal in US dollars, or Canadian Dollars? I can't seem to figure this out. Also I don't know if the apple store website is the actual website of the physical store or the webstore.
    Is it possible for me to buy product tax-free, because I live in Europe.
    And my final question, does the Canadian Apple store in Montreal have a student discount promotion of any kind?
    Thanks in advance!

    If you go to the Apple on-line store and select the country at the bottom right of the page as Canada, you will see the prices in Canadian dollars.  That should be the price you will then see at the Montreal Apple store.
    Whether or not you can avoid the taxes as a tourist you will have to discuss with the store staff, they should know that information.
    The US stores have a student price for university students that comes out to around 10% or $200 US on computers.  Canada most likely does the same thing.  You will need proof that you are a student to receive the discount.

  • How can I make my apple ID valid for purchases other then the Canadian iTunes Store?

    How can I make my apple ID valid for purchases other then the Canadian iTunes Store? I wanted to download the "Wath abc family" app and it said it had to switch me to the american store because the app isnt available in Canada yet. Once it switched me I put in my apple ID and password and thats when it said that my apple ID is only valid in the canadian store and it switched me back. 
    1)
    2)
    3)

    To make purchases in the Mac App Store/iTunes Store for any particular country, you must be a legal resident of that country and supply a credit card issued by a bank in that country with a verifiable billing address in that country. Do you also make those qualifications in the US?
    But as a side note, as one who has that app, you can only watch both ABC and ABC Family shows if you have an account with a US cable or satelite TV company with which to sign into the app. Otherwise you don't qualify to watch shows with it.
