Why do my app store settings change because i have just changed my country of residence?

I have recently relocated to India and just figured out that my settings do not change to indian settings which are on the app store ...
According to the web it says i have to change/ create a new account in order to avail of the indian app store ...why can't i use my existing account for necessary apps here itself??
any help would be appreciated
thanks

You need a bank card with a billing address in a particular country to use the MAS for that country. If that is no longer the case regarding your previous home country, then yes, you will need to establish a bank card with a local billing address in India.
The MAS app opens the MAS based on your IP. But if you maintain the bank card and billing address in the other country, then you can change the MAS to that country by the method offered in the other comment.

  • TS1702 How to restore my applications from the App Store after changing my country?

    I had changed my country inside my Apple ID and I couldn't retrieve my purchased applications after that
    Anyone have solution for such a case

    So I guess it will only be new apps that I download that are allowed to give me their updates while 13 updates wait for me on an ID I can no longer access.
    Yes...  sorry.

  • Why does the App Store keep telling me I have apps that need updating?

    My iPhone keeps displaying the little notification that I need to update 1 or multiple apps even when I don't. It happens all the time and it's just a quirky thing. Are there any fixes for this?

  • How do you access updates to apps from the App store after changing to a new ID because the password on the old ID was changed and you don't know what it is now?

    How do you access updates to apps from the App store after changing to a new ID because the password on the old ID was changed by the former husband and you don't know what it is now?  And you set up your own new ID and account but can NOT access the updates, from the App store for the many apps that you already have, because they require that you sign in with that former now inaccessible ID and account and password?  Call it a problem of modern times and changing relationships, if you want to be charitable.

    So I guess it will only be new apps that I download that are allowed to give me their updates while 13 updates wait for me on an ID I can no longer access.
    Yes...  sorry.

    Some folks resolve download and other connection issues by using either OpenDNS or Google Public DNS services. The best use is to use it as the DNS configuration in your modem/router/gateway device, but often the configuration in the computer or iOS device will over ride the other configuration if you don't have access.

  • Why iMessages, facetime, app store, etc  I do not work in maverick? please solution  thanks

    why iMessages, facetime, app store, etc  I do not work in maverick? please solution  thanks

    Philip, many people have talked about this "blue lego" problem, but you are the first to explain it (migrating to Intel) that brings clarity to the issue. The Business and People widgets use small "webkit" plugins in order to do their work. However, the plugins on the PowerPC versions of these widgets are NOT Universal, and thus will not run on an Intel Mac.
    Typically, this should never be an issue because an Intel Mac comes with widgets already installed (the Universal versions of these widgets, which include Universal versions of these plugins).
    However, if I understand you correctly, you "migrated" your old files from your PowerPC Mac to your new Intel Mac. Is it possible you overwrote your Intel OS X default widgets (the 18 widgets in [Hard Drive]/Library/Widgets) with the versions from your old PowerPC Mac during this migration?
    If so, then that is the source of your problem: you replaced your Universal widgets with PowerPC widgets. The solution is to reinstall your widgets from the Installer that came with your new Intel Mac. You can either re-install OS X entirely, or use Pacifist to just install those overwritten widgets.

    Because you bought them under a different Apple ID.
