Why can't i buy iphone from the usa website?

i've been trying to buy an iphone from the usa website as a gift to my sister who lives there... but it doesn't accept my postcode.. is it not possible to buy an iphone from uk?

Nope. You need a verified billing/shipping address in the US to use the US store. Same reason someone from the US couldn't use the UK store.

  • Why can't I buy downloads from the US store? I am in the UK.

    I am in th UK and have bought an 80GB iPod on which I want to play videos while I travel.
    The UK video and TV content is almost non-existent. Jimmy Carr? Bloody Ricky Gervais? How utterly appaling. If there is amy more content, I cannot find it, and I find the iStore site difficult to use and impossible to find anything on.
    The US store is full of shows and movies I wish to download, but it say my account cannot buy from this store. Why is this?
    If this is a permanent state of affairs, you can have my iPod back and cancel my subscription. What regional rubbish in an international communications age.

    Blame the studios. I am sure Apple would like to allow cross country purchases. You want access to the American store, whereas I would like the Australian and British stores in addition to the American one.

    No one here knows why. No one can help you with so little information because we do not have a crystalball. You will need to provide detailed information about what happens when you try to buy an app in order to begin to help with your issue.

  • Hello! i am from Romania and i want to buy an iphone from the USA site. can i buy it neverlocked? and if it is possible how much should it cost in totat(with transport and the iphone price)?

    hello! i am from Romania and i want to buy an iphone from the USA site. can i buy it neverlocked? and if it is possible how much should it cost in totat(with transport and the iphone price)?

    You can buy a factory unlocked on direct from Apple sim free, make sure you get the right one and not just a contract free one.  I am sure  one of our US members will be able to give you the price.

  • If I buy an unlocked iphone from the usa, will it be compatable in the uk?

    I would like to buy an Iphone from the USA but am concerned that I will not be able to use it in the UK. Can anyone confirm if this is possible and if there is anything I will need to do?

    The officially unlocked GSM version will work fine. But why on earth do you want to do this? The iPhone warranty is not a true international warranty, thus you most likely won't have any warranty & support in the UK for a US purchased iPhone. Not to mention you can purchase officially unlocked iPhones in the UK. Your money, do what you want.

  • Why can i not buy music from itunes store,this only happened recently

    Why can i not buy music from itunes store,this has only happened recently ?

    O.K. Everything seems to be in order now!
    I don't know what happened but this is the results....
    After attempting to edit change the information on my iTunesMS account at least 7 times, I posted the above question, logged out of iTunes, closed down all my apps and turned off my computer.
    A few hours later, I thought I would give it one more try and when I turned on iTunes, went to the Music Store and then 'reviewed' my account... it had my old American address on it with the country listed as Sweden... I just left it alone, as it didn't have my credit card info listed at all... Curiously, I'm clueless about that (though I did send this same complaint to Apple during the first posting... did that have anything to do with it?) When I clicked the continue button (without changing any info) it prompted me that I was finished setting up my iTunes Music Store account and I was immediately able to download some songs....(using the iTunes Music card--- I have not tried my MasterCard!)
    So basically, I did nothing except close iTunes, turn off my computer and later rebooted it and opened iTunes! Strange... does that seem like a fix or what?

  • How can i unlock my iphone from the us

    how can i unlock my iphone from the us?? please help

    If you are referring to a lock to a specific cell carrier, so you can use the iPhone with a different carrier, only the cell carrier to whom the phone is locked can authorize unlocking. You will need to contact the carrier.
    Regards.

  • I've been told I should deauthorize all my devices and reauthorize them. Can you deauthorize an iPhone from the iTunes App?

    I've been told I should deauthorize all my devices and reauthorize them. Can you deauthorize an iPhone from the iTunes App?

    I read an answer on another issue that said you don't deauthorize iPhones from the phone, and to deauthorize everything from the iTunes store. But when I go to the iTunes store, it tells me my computer is not authorized, (I just had this computer repaired & the iTunes store doesn't recognize it, and it says we already have 5 devices authorized). Is there a place to deauthorize everything at once, so I can add devices back individually?

  • If I buy an iPhone from the Apple website, and then go to Verizon to activate it, will it reset my 2 year contract? Also, will Verizon charge extra for activating since the price on Verizon is higher than the Apple website's price?

    It's all very confusing to me, I need some answers from experienced customers.

    I already checked. I purchased my iPhone 3G on the launch date back in July '08. I've paid the bill the day my bill was issued, days ahead of its due date, and for some reason, even through it's magic 8-ball wisdom, said I was not eligible for and upgrade. Not till Dec. of this year at least.
    So even though my phone is now technically 'mine' and off their contract, they still won't unlock it for me? How come?
