Why can't I buy more international songs in the U.S. iTunes store??
Because the owners of the songs have not licensed them for sale in the U.S.
Apple doesn't have any say in the matter. it's up to the owner of the distribution rights for the music.

  • Why can't I transfer my audiobooks to my itunes account from my ipad?

    I cannot transfer my audiobooks to my itunes on my computer.  I can transfer everything else but the audiobooks will not transfer.

  • HT201209 Why can't i use my money in my itunes account?

    I entered my new iTunes gift card into the iTunes store and once i go to use it, it asks for my credit card billing information. Do i need to fill that out to be able to use the card?

    Gift cards are country-specific, so US gift cards can only be used in the US on US-based iTunes accounts. Do you know anybody in the US that you could sell or give the card to ?

  • Same question for the "2 iPhones in one account".....How do I change the name.  My iPhone is showing my wife's iPhone name when I am syncing it.  Why is that?  I know about using one iTunes account....But how do you change the name w/o erasing your data?

    Hi....How do you change the name?  When I sync my iPhone, it shows my wife's name on it?

    Unfortunately it is not doing it....
    Let me give more details..We have 3 iPods and 2 iPhone4....I recently purchased the iPhone4 and when we connected it..It was already reading my wife's iPhone4..We went to the Apple Store at the Grove today and was told to de-authorize the system and connect my iPhone4 back and I should be able to change the name.
    Nothing happened..Right now, I clicked on RESTORE settings...and it is uploading a new iPhone update. 

  • I can't update any of my apps because its having trouble with my iTunes account how do I fix this I have a valid credit card?

    Someone please help me I got my IPad off of craigslist but brand new in the box.

    Once you purchase or download an app it will always be associated with the Apple ID used to download it. When that app requires and update you must use the Apple ID and password used to download it in the first place. The only way around this is to delete the apps the require the old Apple ID and download or purchase them again with the new Apple ID.

  • I'm getting messages that Netflix and the iTunes store are currently unavailable.  This can't be a coincidence.  also, my iTunes account works fine on my Mac, just not on the Apple TV.

    I'm getting  messages on Apple TV that netflix and the itunes store are currently unavailable.  This can't be a coincidence.  Also, the iTunes store is working fine on my Mac, the message is only on the apple TV.  Does anyone come across this frequently?

    1. An explanation for what? There is indeed a support number (which you can find on this page in "Contact Us" and you are limited to one support call in the first 90 days and if you have the AppleCare you have more than that available, so I'm not sure what you are whinning about (and it is whinning, trust me).
    2. http://www.kelleytown.com/ikelleytown.htm#firewire
    However, since I wrote that I've also found this link pretty well explaining why firewire is the only way to go as well (it's about video but the same principles apply to the iPod:

    3. Your computer is constantly changing whether you know it or not. Do you not apply any MS upgrades (or have them automatically applied for you?) Do you not have any antivirus on your machine (which applies its own upgrades)? Do you not, ever, ever, ever, open any email message, or download that cute little movie your friend sent you, or plug in any other device (like a digital camera or flashcard reader) or any of the other hundreds of things that change the computer environment.
    It would be tempting to conclude a priori that the update you applied is now the problem, but if so, how do you explain the millions of others who apply the update without issues? The difference is in the software and settings on the witches brew that is a PC. So in a sense you are right in that the old firmware worked with the mess that is your computer and now the new one doesn't -- but it ain't up to Apple to fix your computer, and impossible for them to control the environment (oh, I guess unless you buy a Mac -- "coincidentally" Mac's use firewire for the iPod :>)
    I dunno -- when 90% of all issues (100% of all connection issues) can be solved with the Adaptec 4300 I tend to have a lot less patience with folks. If you want to use the mess that is USB then you'll just have to deal with the fact that MS screwed it up big time and become more knowledgable on how to handle the problems.

  • Is there a way to access purchase history of my itunes account  on I phone

    there a way to access purchase history of my itunes account  on I phone I need to pay outstanding  monies and have no money in my bank account till after the weekend. I purchased a itunes card. But I need to access purchase history from my itunes account  to press pay to pay  outstanding monies from I tunes card instead of my bank account which won't work due to lack of funds in it

    No. The only way to see it is to restore the backup to an iOS device.

  • I have a balance on my ITunes account, but when I try to purchase music, it says my credit card will be charged.  Why can't I see my balance

    I have a balance on my ITunes account, but when I try to purchase music, it says my credit card will be charged.  Why can't I use my current balance? and why does't it show up in the ITunes store account.  It appears on my IPhone.

    Well no, not from my experience.   Last night, with a balance of about $42 in the iTunes store (several gift cards this summer) I purchased a 4.99 app - credit card was charged, not the balance in the iTunes store.

  • It says in the corner of my itunes account that i still have money from my itunes gift card that i redeemed, but when i buy a song my billing info pops up. Why can't I use the money?

    It says in the corner of my itunes account that i still have money from my itunes card that i redeemed, but when i try to buy a song, the billing info. pops up. Why can't i use the money on my card?

    It is simply asking you to verify your account info. Select None for the CC.
    It will still pay with your gift card balance.

  • HT2736 Why can I not GIFT apps using my current iTunes balance???

    Why can I not GIFT apps using my current iTunes balance???  It allows you to pay using credit card, paypal, or a new iTunes card, but why can we not gift apps and songs to each other using the current balance we have on our accounts from previous iTunes gift card purchases etc.?
    Either I am missing something very obvious here, or Apple's greedy stance on gifting is actually creating less usage of the feature, because I for one would not think twice about purchasing gifts for people with a current balance that is already accounted for, but when it comes to adding money or using a card, it just feels like a new payment, and a bigger monetary burden.
    Please let me know how to do this if it is possible, and if it is not, then PLEASE FIX ?

    I agree with some points that is how it works. Because apple do things they want....
    It's quite nice that way being so unique and remarkable. However it is so inconvenient for users who sometimes just want to gift things without a credit card or such whatever.  Because sometimes it's meaningless to have balance when you aren't able to spend it.
    The point is made. Many are not happy with it but that's life. Just take it or leave it...

  • Can Apple TV use the balance from my iTunes Store when renting a movie? I couldnt find the option so I believe it will charge my credit card it made me add to the iTunes Store settings.

    Can Apple TV use the balance from my iTunes Store when renting a movie? I couldnt find the option so I believe it will charge my credit card it made me add to the iTunes Store settings.

    For the avoidance of doubt, you must have enough of a balance to pay for the rental in full, it won't take the balance and the difference by credit card. If you don't have enough of a balance it will all be taken by credit card.

  • The guides all say when using the iCloud photos are shared across all devices. Why can't I see my photos from my iPhone on my iPad when it settings on both devices the iCloud for photos is on?

    The guides all say when using the iCloud photos are shared across all devices. Why can't I see my photos from my iPhone on my iPad when it settings on both devices the iCloud for photos is on?

    When you enable Photo Stream on your devices, only new photos you take or import to those devices will be automatically added to your Photo Stream. Existing photos won't.
