What are the Rules for using iTunes outside the US?

I'm a US citizen with a US bank and a US credit card and a US mailing address.  The only things that are outside the US are me and my US-purchased Mac.
I understand that I can only use the US iTunes Store while I'm in the US (which is about 3 or 4 times a year).
What about the rest of the time?  Is there an official way to purchase additional titles when I'm outside the US?
What does the current contract mean by "agree not to use the APP outside the US"?  Is the "APP" iTunes or just the iTunes Store?

I understand all this "can't get there from here" stuff has to do with copyright laws and such but the real world is going to do what it has to do.
This is why I wanted to know what the Official Rules were.  iTunes is not currently available in my country of residence so even if I wanted to, I couldn't use the "local store" as there is none.
I had a similar problem with Microsoft Office 365.  Can't subscribe from "here" without using a "local" credit card.  I do have a local credit card but it can only be used "here".  When I tried to subscribe using my "local" credit card on Microsoft's "local" website - my "local" bank denied the charge as the "local" website was actually in the US.  VPN solved the problem.

  • What are the rules for using ILife sound effects, jingles, in video projects?

    I used a musical track from my iLife musical library in FCPX and when I posted the video on YouTube it was claimed by a third party. The track is called "Elysium". So are the music and sound libraries free from copyright claim?

    That's the rub. Everybody has the impression they can use Apple Loops as if they're open source or public domain... They are so not. They are free from royalties! That's a completely different thing.
    You do have the right to use those "jingles" in your video works for free. You do need to give credit to the third party contributors of content you've used in your videos.
    I find that placing a credit *in your video* like:
    Music: Elysium by Apple, Inc. Used with (or by) permission.
    or
    Music: Elysium licensed by Apple, Inc.
    helps out considerably.
    (All of the iLife Jingles are credited to Apple, Inc.)
    (You can use any kind of formatting you like for displaying credits -- you can make it an interesting part of your video as done in some higher end movies, etc.)
    YouTube needs to cover their a**. Your videos need to have a little professionalism added to them (credits are de rigueur [good etiquette, and expected.])  I'm pretty sure that YouTube puts human eyes on every upload. I place credits at the very beginning and the videos usually "clear" rather quickly.
    One of the problems with using "Apple Loops" is that somebody has already beat you to using them. Content matches cover everything. I've had content matches against people who have actually violated the end user agreement for using the loops (there's a clause that basically states that loops shall not be made available to the public in their entirety without modification.) It's okay to use loops in a derivative type setting (something is added to the soundtrack with the music to make it "changed".) [I don't think Apple pushes the point... but others might.]
    YouTube doesn't really care what you use. They just need to make sure their liability is zero. Credit everything. Be truthful (you've got to cover your own a** as well.) If you don't have permission to use something... DON'T!
    YouTube has an Audio Library of free content you can use (without credit! — but give the credit anyway [professionalism]) in their content Creation Tools section located at the bottom of the left column of your Account pages (Video Manager, Dashboard, etc.) It's a pretty decent selection of music... you should check it out.

  • What are basic steps for using Handbrake ripping software?

    I free downloaded Handbrake 0.8.0b1 to my 10.4.9 Mac OSX intending to download a DVD of home 8mm movies, that had been compiled by comm. photo shop, so that I could use iMovie & iDVD programmes to create new DVDs of segments of the 8mm movies. Can't find basic instructions on how to run Handbrake. When I open it the menu is mostly greyed out, so I have little or no choice. Tried downloading parts of the DVD several times, and only once did it register a file (in desktop) which I was able to open. I subsequently lost that by trying to move its destination. Other times a destination for the download is shown in the menu, (greyed out) but it isn't registered anywhere on the hard drive, nor shown on the desktop. So I would appreciate learning the elementary abc's of the steps to use that software.
      Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    These Apple-hosted forums are best for Q&A about Apple software. The best place to get info about using non-Apple software is from the developers themselves. Check out the Handbrake FAQ page and/or post your question on the Handbrake developers' forums.

  • What is the best product for using itunes only?

    I am considering buying a laptop / notebook / ipad or whatever for using itunes only.  The goal would be to add all cd's to the product and then increase my collection via downloads only going forward.
    Can anyone recommend the best product for this please?  I have an ipod nano and I'm new to the iphone, so I'm an Apple convert, although I'd consider a non-Apple product too (sorry Apple!).
    Budget is tight!
    Thanks in advance

    Without a bit more info, it's hard to answer your question.
    How many CD's do you intend to keep on the PC/Mac/iPad as an iPad has a maximum storage of aprox 55Gb's for the top model, whereas even a basic PC laptop is likely to have 150Gb plus of space. Plus you are going to need a PC/Mac to copy the CD's in the first place, unless you intend to buy all your music from the iTunes store.
    For me I would look at either a MacBook if you can go to the £1000 price bracket, or look at a MacMini and cheap screen then transfer the music to your iPod/iPhone or sadly from a price point of view you may have to go the Windows route as a basic laptop will start at £400

    i want to change my password, somebody is using my ID,i follow the rules but unfortunatly i forgot the answer of safety question what can i do?
    i recieve a mail form apple team showing reset password link but its not opening

    I rang Apple and they could noy help me.
    They are often pretty impatient with these questions.
    You will need to contact iTunes Support for this. Be prepared to supply the answers that you do know, plus some additional personal information that only you will know.
    Start here: https://expresslane.apple.com/
    Click iTunes > iTunes Store > Other iTunes topics and questions. Eventually you get to a point at which you can compose a thoughtfully worded email. Apple will respond via email within a day. Be sure to check your spam folder for this reply.
    Normal business hours apply, so you may have to wait until Monday. They will ask you for more personal information, and then you will have to wait for another reply which will provide instructions for resetting your password as well as answers to the security questions. Good luck!

    If you are getting an 'invalid security code' message then is the address on your iTunes account exactly the same (format and spacing etc) as on your credit card bill : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646 ? If it is then you could try what it says at the bottom of that page :
    If the issue persists, contact your credit card company and verify that they and any company they use to process credit card authorizations have the correct information on file.
    And/or try contacting iTunes support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Express Lane, then iTunes > iTunes Store

    Hey Lakedrive442,
    It sounds like you have changed your Apple ID which you use with iTunes.  If so there are several places you may need to update it as outlined in this article.

  • What are attributes we can use in LDAP query in server derivation rules

    Q: What are attributes we can use in LDAP query in server derivation rules
    A: Server derivation rules can be defined for an LDAP server in the same way as that for a Radius server. As opposed to a Radius server, where the list of attributes that are defined for a server are standard, for an LDAP server, the attributes depend on the type of the server.
    The following table contains the list of attributes that are available for an Active Directory implementation. The server may maintain only a subset of these attributes, depending on how the user entries have been configured.

    to map special characters you need to use an element called CDATA in your mapping
    a special character causes an error....as XI wont be able to read it (as it is not in a proper XML format)...so to parse this character through XI without causing an eror use the CDATA....just make a search on SDN and you will find the proper use of it....

    Hello everybody
    I bought a new iPhone 4 with iOS 6.1.3 installed. When I connected it to itunes for the first time to activate it iTunes asked me to enter the password for an account that the iPhone is locked to like if the device was used before what shall I do? PLease reply soon

    I can't do that because the device was purchased from United Arab Emirates and I got it as a gift in Syria but the problem is that there is not even a single apple store in Syria so is there another way to fix that, I googled it and was told to jailbreak the device whitch I did and than hacktivated it but the problem is the device doesn't connect to any network and only shows "no service" and the battery draining too fast so is there any other way to fix this issue

  • I have two iPads and one iPod Touch and they are using iTunes on the same computer.

    I have two iPads and one iPod Touch and they are using iTunes on the same computer. I have not been able to backup the second iPad. Is there a reason this is happening? iPad one is an iPad 1 and the second is an iPad 2 not sure if this has something to do with it. I just tried to upgrade to IOS 5 and when it went to back up it gave me an error code (-5000). I tried to back up using iTunes and it told me that my backup was corrupted and to delete it and try to back up again. When I went into the device portion where I was instructed to go to delete the backup I found that there was no backup for my iPad just the iPad 1.
    I have synced many times and all of the apps, podcasts, music, etc... show up in iTunes, and iTunes recognizes that is is the second iPad but there is not a backup for it.
    Any Ideas?
