Want to buy from another itunes store

I have an account with the itunes store in Denmark but want to buy some music from the store in the UK (which isn't available yet in DK). This doesn't seem possible - I keep getting directed back to the Danish store - WHY??? (I am fairly new to all this as you can probably tell).

Apple are currently under investigation in Europe over not allowing UK customers to buy from for example the French store which as Zevoneer says is due to the dictates of the Record Industry. However such a policy flies in the face of European rules on free movement of goods within the EU (which is why there is an investigation).
See http://www.theregister.co.uk/2004/12/03/appleitunes_eurocomplaint/
So while Sorers in Denmark (in Europe) might want to buy from the UK store (also in Europe) due to the bigger selection of tracks, despite the fact that the UK store has the second highest iTMS prices in the world, we in the UK would like to buy from the Denmark (or France, or Ireland, etc.) which have the second cheapest iTMS prices in the world.

    Most of the people on these forums, including myself, are fellow users - you're not talking to iTunes Support here, we won't know why.
    What happens when you try to buy something, does the 'buy' button not work, do you get any error messages ... ?
    If you are getting a message to contact iTunes Support then you can do so via this link and ask them for help : 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 it's a different problem ... ?

  • TS3297 Case ID: 491015140 My itunes Store doesn´t has music. I live in Angola. Why can´t I buy from another itunes store. music from all singers like Rihanna or others artists. it doesn´t accept my crdit card in other country. I need a solution

    My Itunes-Angola doesn´t has any music (songs) at all. I would like to buy songs from itunes store from a diferrent country. but it doesn´t allow me.

    You can only buy/download content from your own country's store - to be able to buy from another country's store you will need to be in that country and have a valid billing address in that country on your iTunes account (content is licensed to Apple to sell by the content providers on a country-by-country basis).
    In order to sell music in Angola the record companies will have have to grant Apple licenses to do so - until if/when they do that then unfortunately you won't be able to buy music from Apple. You can try leaving feedback for Apple to let them know that there are people there that would like to buy music : http://www.apple.com/feedback/

  • Buying from several ITunes Stores

    When I try to buy from another Itunes Store, I get "Your account is not authorized to use this ITunes Store (US)" and it sends me to the authorized one (France). This is crazy! Each store has songs that are not available in the other. Are we restricted to what we may listen to?

    The issue of cross store purchasing comes up frequently so I'll just quote one of the most complete explanations (courtesy of Dave Sawyer) from the many given:
    In order to buy from any given country's iTunes Music Store you must be able to show some form of residency which would be 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.

  • My Apple ID is only limited to Indonesia iTunes Store. I would like to buy some music from iTunes USA Store. How could I use my Indonesia-based credit card in order for me to buy music from another iTunes store? The iTunes Indonesia store is very limited.

    Unless you have a payment account and billing address in the US you cannot purchase from the US store.
    And you will need to physically be in the USA for it to work.

  • Can i buy content from another itunes store?

    Hi,
    I live in Canada and therefore default to the Canadian itunes store. Can i purchase items ie: TV show episodes from the US itunes store?
    Thanks for any help in advance.

    This has been covered here literally dozens of times, but once again: the content owners do not allow cross-border sales from any of the legal download stores. You must therefore have legal residence in the country of the iTunes Store you wish to use. So in order to buy from another country's iTunes Store, you must (as proof of residence) have either:
    a) a credit card issued by a bank in that country with a billing address also in that country, or
    b) a mailing address for your residence 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, again, 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.

  • Buy from American iTunes Store when living in Europe?

    yes, you are.
    *From the itunes store terms of service*:
    +to purchase from an iTunes Store in a particular country, you must have both a residential address and a billing address in that particular country. Items on any particular country's iTunes Store are available only for distribution to customers who use a credit card, debit card, iTunes Gift Certificate, or iTunes Gift Card issued in and for that country.+

  • I want to buy from british itunes

    I am looking to purchase 'Common People', a cover of a Pulp song, performed by My Chemical Romance, but the US Itunes doesn't see it. After doing a search online I was directed to British Itunes. It looks like I'd have to create a different account. Ok. But I don't get paid in British pounds. Hence my problem. I want the song. Does anyone know of a way for me to legally get it ... through itunes??
    Thanks.

    You can only buy from the UK store if you are here in the UK and have a UK billing address on your account - you need to be in a country to use its store. You can try requesting that the song be added to the US store, but unless the record company/US rights-holder grants Apple a license to sell it there then Apple won't be able to do so : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

  • IS it possible, to buy from other iTunes stores?(UK, Australia, etc...)

    I would LOVE to make some purchases from other iTunes stores, such as UK, Austrailia, etc......but can't seem to figure out how (or IF?) to configure account to work in more than 1 store.....do I, or can I , create multiple accounts all via my iTunes on my PC?

    You either need a credit card & Billing address in the same desired country as the iTunes store
    or you need to purchase iTunes cards (ebay, Trademe, Amazon) for that country and make a login using a legitamite address within that country

  • Buying from US iTunes Store

    Hi all,
    Knowing Apple the answer is probably 'NO' or even 'Sod off, your having a laugh', but is it possible to buy from the US iTunes store from the UK?
    Thanks
    Matt

    Keep in mind that you will have to use his iTunes account (and then authorize your computer at home with his account) or create a new iTunes account here in the US for you. But you would have to use a gift card because your credit card has a UK billing address.
    Then when you get home, you'd have to authorize that account on your computer also.
    Either way, you will have music on two different accounts you need to have authorized on your home computer.
    You regular account and the new account.
