Why can't I download apps in another country if I am in this country?

I am regularly in Germany and want to download offers here as well as from the UK. Tried to download sth today and could not do it.

Often it has to do with the licensing agreements for the media, since licenses are negotiated by region. In other words, probably not a technical issue but usually legal and sometimes financial, from lawyers writing up electronic agreements based on principles from the pre-electronic era.

    Why can't I download apps I have to pay for on to my new iPad Mini. I have had an Apple id for my iPhone for years and have downloaded app to it, no problems. When I try to download apps to my new iPad Mini, it tells me my billing info has to be confirmed. After confirming with same info that is already there it tells me to contact support, no help up to this point.

    Could the credit card be expired?
    Beyond that, what you need to do is contact iTunes support, they can tell you exactly what is wrong, none of us here can do that.
    In the lower right corner of this page is a 'contact us' link. Click on that and you'll see a page full of info and links, one of which is iTunes support.

    Apple tend to provide regular updates with access to more content, they have added PBS and Yahoo in the last few days.
    Nobody here will have any information about future updates since the community is only made up of users like you or I. Anything else is mere speculation and speculation is not permitted here under the Terms of Use for these communities.
    Any responses you may receive may well be removed and would be wholly unreliable in any case.
    If you believe that Apple's product may be enhanced in anyway you can leave feedback here.

    Why can I not download apps onto my Macbook. The only apps that come up are ipad & iphone apps.

    If you are searching within iTunes, all the Apps are for iDevices. To find Apps for the MacBook, you will need to search using the Mac App Store.

    That statement is false. Copied directly from the iTunes Store Terms and Conditions:
    "The iTunes Service is available to you only in( Insert country name here). You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Service from outside these locations. Apple may use technologies to verify your compliance."
    You need to be physically located in the country, its territories or possessions whose store you are trying to use.

    I have captured the install log.  Right now I don't have the Sever.app and related files in the system.  But log shows the server is running or installed today.  I have seen MiniLauncher tag (don't know what it is).  And if the server is running, it is not appearing in the Activity log.

  • Why can't I download app in my iPad and iPhone today???

    I can't download any update or new app today. What is going on!!! Both my iPad and iPhone  with the same user ID.

    Nobody here could possibly know why you can't download apps today. I can tell you that there are no reported issues with any of Apple Services in the U.S. which you can see here.

    You will certainly have to provide some more information if you need help, like what exactly is happening?

  • Why can't i download apps on my ipod?

    I can't download apps anymore on my ipod. I dont know why. can you please help!!!!

    Try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.
    There's more to try but let's go a bit at a time.

  • Why can't I download app updates or new podcasts

    Hi,
    I have an Iphone 4 with IOS 7.0.3 and I'm unable to download any updates for apps. Currently I have 3 updates available, BBC, Trivago and Facebook and when I go to update them the blue circle just keeps spinning around and never starts.
    Along with that I'm not able to download podcasts, it just stays at the preparing to download stage and then just stops trying.
    Can anyone give me some help with this?

    Hey ELSheepO,
    I would try out the following troubleshooting steps to see if that helps the issue at all:
    Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
    Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
    Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
    Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
    Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
    Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
    Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
    Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
    If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.

  • Why can't I download apps on my iPad

    Have down loaded the new iOS but sice then I can't download any new apps or update any.  Is this a problem with the ios

    No. It's a problem on your device or with your network or internet connection. Millions of us are downloading without problems.
    Why don't you describe what is happening when you try to download apps.

    Hi Julua,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!  To troubleshoot this issue, I would first suggest you sign out of the iTunes Store on your iPhone, then quit all open apps and restart the iPhone.  Log back into the iTunes Store with your Apple ID and password and then attempt to download a free app.  The following articles will provide more detailed information:
    iOS: Sign in with a different Apple ID in the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store

  • Why can i not download apps from australia

    I live in the UK and wish to download apps from Australia like TENplay but unable to, why is that and when will apple allow us to do so?

    It's not Apple's choice. All content is licensed by the rights-holders to Apple to sell on a country-by-country basis, each country therefore has to have its own store and you have to be in a country to use its store. You can try requesting that the app be added to the UK store, but unless the rights-holder agrees to it then Apple can't sell it here : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

  • Why can't i download apps on iphone?

    Hi guys
    I got my new iPhone 6 yesterday - and am having issues with it straight away.
    When i try and download apps like Chrome or Sky Sports, I click the Get button, then Install - but it just refreshes and goes back to "Get"... has anyone else had this?
    I'm connected to wifi - so it's not a signal issue.
    Thanks

    Hi mrbishman,
    It may help to sign out of the iTunes Store, restart your iPhone, then sign back into the iTunes Store.
    Tap Settings > iTunes & App Stores.
    Tap your Apple ID.
    If you see the option to Sign In, you can change your Apple ID now.
    Tap Sign Out.
    Enter your Apple ID and Password and tap Sign In.
    Or if you don't have another Apple ID, tap Create New Apple ID.
    iOS: Sign in with a different Apple ID in the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store
