Why are iBooks not available in Hong Kong

The Hong Kong iBook Store resembles a desert. Why is it that commercial books are not available in Hong Kong?

  • HT4059 Why are books not available even though they appear as search results in Apple Canada iBook Store?

    Why are books not available even though they appear as search results in Apple Canada iBook Store?

    You can only buy from your own country's store - to be able to buy from another country's store you need a valid billing address in that country and be in that country when buying from it. You can try requesting that they be added to US store, but ultimately it's the book's publisher that will have to grant Apple a license to sell it there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html
    Are they available in other ebook stores/apps that you have access to e.g. Amazon/Kindle, Nook, Kobo etc ?

  • Podcast not available in Hong Kong store?

    Is there any reason why Apple event and keynotes podcast are not available in Hong Kong itunes store?

    There is no obvious reason why your podcast should have been removed from the Store. I can only suggest that you email them at podcasts 'at' apple.com and hope that you can get a useful response.

    You need to be in a country to use its store, so unless you are in the US with a US billing address on your account then you can't buy from the US store - you can only use the South African store. You can try requesting that the song be added to the South African store, but unless the rights-holder agrees to it then Appl won't be able to sell it there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

  • HT204411 iTunes store - I live in the German speaking part of Switzerland (and have a credit card address here too) but want to watch films in English, Italian, or French. Why are films not available in these other languages ?

    Hello, I live in the German speaking part of Switzerland (and have a credit card address here too) but want to watch films in English, Italian, or French. Why are films not available in these other languages ? Unless I am mistaken, iTunes Switzerland is far from Swiss and does not encourage its people to watch films in the local languages of its country (at least French and Italian would be good too...). Can anyone help ? Do I have to move to Geneva to watch a non French film in French or Lugano to watch a non Italian film in Italian or simply buy a DVD to get round it?

    I have the same problem. I want to watch any movies in French (in the original, or subtitled and/or dubbed). But I cannot seem to find any on iTunes. Does iTunes offer any content in other countries (I live overseas) in the languages of those countries?

  • There are a few tv shows that played this week that are not available on itunes from tnt. Why are they not available for download.

    There are a few tv shows that played this week that are not available on itunes from tnt. Why are they not available for download. We watch these each week, and I have checked to be sure that there was actually an episode this week, and there was.

    Under other "sync-able" players, there's usually the "Sync only checked items" radio button. Not for the 2.0 Apple TV. There's no option, but acts as though that option ("sync only, etc...") has been selected. Figured it out after an hour of walking back and forth from my Mac to the TV. Argh.
    Try it. De-select the shows, sync the AppleTV and look under the "TV Shows" and the one's you've unchecked will not be there.

  • Are Student Editions available for Hong Kong?

    And are there resellers for student edition licenses in Hong Kong/China?

    Unfortunately, you are far from the only ones having this problem. See for example this post:
    http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Software-Updates/N​okia-603-700-or-701-without-FP1-please-post-countr​...
    You will see there that I have found users posting similar problems from The USA, Colombia, The UK, Italy, Germany,  Hungary, Romania, Slovenia, Macedonia, Israel, South Africa, Taiwan Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong and the Philippines.
    So far as I can tell, Nokia is still plugging the FP1 upgrade on its web site in all these countries except Hong Kong and Taiwan, where it was shown as available until very recently, but where reference to it has recently been removed.
    Keep pressing.
    Good luck

  • Why are ringtones not available for all purchased songs?

    does anyone know why you can not make a ringtone from all purchased songs?  e.g., none of the songs I'e downloaded from The Beatles may be made in to ringtones.

    I am having no problems with the HBOGo app on my iPad. Try quitting the app and then restart the iPad.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close the app by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on the HBOGo icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus (-) sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    If that doesn't work, try a reset of the iPad. Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • Why Apple Not Sale In Hong Kong ?

    AppleTV not available in Hong Kong?
    No idea, but Apple has many product differences from country to country.

  • Why apple tv does not sell in hong kong?

    Why apple tv does not sell in hong kong?

    appletv's only sell in countries where itunes have rights to sell movies and tvshows
    so if your kong kong itunes store dont sell such data they don't sell the appletv
    likely because they sell them at a price where they lose money but depend on rental and buying of media
    to earn back those lost money but they can only do that if they have rights to sell and rent media in the place

  • HT5085 I have found that at least 3 music videos that I had previously purchased are not available in my I-tunes music video list.  I paid for them over a year ago, why are they not accessible, and why did they just disappear from my lists?

    I have found that at least 3 music videos that I had previously purchased are not available in my I-tunes music video list.  I paid for them over a year ago, why are they not accessible, and why did they just disappear from my lists?

    Have you deleted anything from your iTunes library ? Have you checked to see if they are still on your computer, but not listed in your iTunes library ?
    If not then do they show in the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage for redownloading ? If they don't show there and others do and they are still in your country's store, then check to see if they are hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
    If they are no longer in your store for redownloading (or you aren't in a country where music videos can be redownloaded) then you will need to copy them back from your backup of your library/downloads.

  • HT204411 Why are some films available for download in the USA and not the UK or vice versa?

    Why are some films available for download in the USA and not the UK or vice versa? For example the film 'Back to the Secret Garden' is available for download in the US and not the UK.

    Availability is determined/controlled by the Copyright owner... not Apple.

  • When will FLIR ONE be available in Hong Kong?

    It's out now in the US.  When will it be available in Hong Kong?

    And we are not Apple, we are users like you, trying to help other users with iPhone 5s hardware issues.  We don't know about new products until Apple announces them...
