Will the Hong Kong iTunes store movie selection be expanded and will TV shows be made available?
This is a determining factor as to whether I will buy an Apple TV.
So far the movie selection is around 150 only with no TV shows available. Having said that the HD playback is flawless!

We're all just fellow users here and as such have no information as to where Apple's negotiations with the HK movie and TV show owners might stand. It's totally up to those owners, and even in the US, the content owners have been reluctant. We'll all just have to wait and see.

  • ITunes Store movie selection...(USA)

    Does iTunes Store plan on hosting any non-Disney movies? I just read about downloading videos and it specifically stated that all iTunes Store videos were from some sort of Disney company.

    They will if the movie studios decide to participate. So far only Disney has been willing to sign up. When, or indeed if, the other studios will get on board with the iTunes Store, no one here knows.
    Forum Tip: Since you're new here, you've probably not discovered the Search feature available on every Discussions page, but next time, it might save you time (and everyone else from having to answer the same question multiple times) if you search a couple of ways for a topic, both in the relevant forums, in the User Tips Library and in the Apple Knowledge Base before you post a question.

  • Can't download songs from iCloud in Canada, purchased from Hong Kong iTune Store

    I have an Hong kong apple account. Now I'm in Canada, and I bought a song on iTune store. It was downloaded to my iCloud but I can't get that song from iCloud to my Mac.. Why is that so?? Is that related to the regions I am staying right now?

    Hello holi890
    Try signing out of your iTunes account and deauthorize. Once that is done sign in and Authorize the computer to see if that resolves the issue. If it still doing the same thing, then check out the second article to troubleshoot access to the iTunes Store.

  • How do i buy things from the hong kong store?

    I did this once - bought music from the Hong Kong iTunes store (because the artist was not available on the US store) and then switched back so that i could buy from the US iTunes store again.  Except that I have no idea how I did it, and I can find no instructions as to how you can authorized your account to go to any country's store other than your own default store.
    Is there an apple instruction on how you do this?  Can anybody tell me.  There is a song in Chinese from YouTube that I love, but there are no obvious links how to buy it.  I suspect the artist (A-Lin) must have many songs in the Hong Kong store.  How do I get there again?

    It is a violation of the terms of service of the itunes store to buy from other countries itunes stores.  This can result in  the loss of your account.
    You cannot use other countries itunes stores.
    Sorry

  • ATV iTunes store movie downloads vanished

    Having searched for related topics and come up empty, I am posting a new thread concerning iTunes store movies purchased directly to and lost from my ATV (disclaimer: in searching for related topics, almost all of my key words showed up results of "0", so I am suspicious that the support site is wonky ... I had to scan for related topics and tired of it before finding anything close). I have the iTunes receipts, so I am sure that I "purchased" the movies and did not "rent" by accident. Both movies have vanished from my ATV, without having been watched. They also do not appear on any of my other computers iTunes libraries. I did verify that they were purchased and were listed with a movie downloaded from my desktop computer to ATV, which is still present on my ATV. Just the two movies purchased through iTunes directly to my ATV are lost.
    Having read Winston Churchill's post on ATV not being a back up device, I am wondering if the ATV has problems with retaining content. If it is not able to reliably store files, is it in fact just an expensive "chord" linking my computer to a tv? (Winston Churchill refers to the ATV as an "iTunes extender", not a stand alone device ... could have sworn my ATV is "standing alone").
    Has anyone else experienced this problem?
    ATV and computers running latest iTunes and ATV software.

    Hey Chris,
    just wondering where you got this information from (how the iTunes movies are formatted/encoded)? is there an apple technical document that gives the specs for the iTunes movies? has Apple released this information? if so where (could you possibly include a link?), and if not, how do you know it? i'm encoding some of the DVDs that i own to put on my ipod using handbrake. Does this mean that if i set my handbrake average bitrate to 1500 kbps (and the format to MPEG-4) that i will be importing them at the same quality as the movies on iTunes? thanx very much!

  • TS3297 iTunes puts up a message "The item you've requested is not currently available in the Hong Kong Store." I had not requested anything from the HK store at that point, and I have never used any store other than the HK one. How I can clear that messag

    I've been running iTunes on WinXP for years with few problems.  I have all my iTunes files on an external USB drive. I just bought a new PC running Win7, 64-bit.
    I connected the external USB drive to the new PC and installed 64-bit iTunes on it. When iTunes started up, I pointed it at the iTunes directory in the external drive, using Edit > Preferences > Advanced > iTunes Media Folder Location. It showed a progress bar that it was updating the iTunes Library. I signed in and authorized the new machine. I have one spare authorization.
    Then iTunes put up a message "The item you've requested is not currently available in the Hong Kong Store." I had not requested anything from the HK store at that point, and I have never used any store other than the HK one.
    When I click OK, the iTunes Store page remains blank, apart from saying "iTunes Store" in the middle of the page.
    I went to "View My Account" and pressed the Reset button to "Reset all warnings for buying and downloading items", but that doesn’t fix this particular warning. I also tried Edit > Preferences > Advanced > Reset Warnings and Rest Cache.
    But still, every time I click the “App Store” button in the iTunes Store window, the message appears. If I click the Books, Podcasts or iTunesU buttons, these display normally.  So I’m stuck with being unable to purchase apps, other than through my iPad and iPhone.
    If I move the external drive back to the XP machine, the same thing happens.  If I go to another PC - a notebook running Vista - everything is normal.
    Any idea how I can clear that message?
    Thanks for any help you can offer.

    Further info on my question above.
    I have tried re-validating my credit card, which apparently fixed it for some. 
    I have also tried uninstalling, re-downloading and installing again.
    Neither of these steps fixed the problem.

    What version of iTunes is on the Mac?

    You can only buy content 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

  • If I buy an iphone from the hong kong site to use in new zealand, will it come unlocked and can i use it in new zealand on a nz service provider?

    If I buy an iphone from the hong kong site to use in new zealand, will it come unlocked and can i use it in new zealand on a nz service provider?

    If you purchase an unlocked iPhone it will work on any supported gsm network.
    Just FYI, apple will not ship outside the country in which the device is purchased. A device purchased in the Hong Kong website must have a shipping and billing address in Hong Kong.
    Also, warranty and support are only valid in the country of origin.

    I just downloaded itunes, and when i go to music there are two options. You can either go to the itunes store or scan for media, and when I click on scan for media it does nothing. Help? (I tried deleting itunes and re-installing it but apparently itunes was still on my computer so it asked me if I wanted to just check and see if there were any issues or missing software, so I did that but i still had the same problem.)

    Hi jbserious,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    It doesn't sound like the iTunes software and its components installed completely.  The article below will walk you through some troubleshooting steps.  Is this your first time using iTunes, or do you have an iTunes library from another computer that you want to move to this one?

  • Navigating iTunes store movies in iPad

    OK, I hope I am missing something, but this is driving me a bit mad.
    Is it possible to navigate the iTunes Store movies and TV collection by genre, on your iPad? It is possible within iTunes on the Mac, but I cannot for the life of me find a way to do it on the iPad.
    All I can do is see the top charts, or a Genius list, or Featured ... but there seems to be no way to choose to browse, for example, all movies in the Family genre.
    Can anyone help? Am I just being particularly dense today?
    Kip

    I know that content differs from country to country depending upon laws and restrictions of the country and the content being licensed in that country, but it seems that the button should be there if you have the Movies tab in iTunes in the music section. Typically, if content is not available, the tab will not show up at all.
    Try doing a search for anything in the movies section and then cancel the search. See if the button shows up. Try quitting iTunes completely as well and then try again. This is a copy and paste that I keep handy for quick "generic" fixes. You can try these as well.
    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.
    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.
    Quitting iTunes - Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps 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 any app 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.

  • HONG KONG ITUNES USER - HELP ME!!!!

    hello. i'm in HK and i have a hong kong itunes account. it seems i cannot buy music via HK itunes store?

    In fact, not just charged item. You can't even install free app for iPhone or iPod touch. It's really stupid!
    Why can't we purchase anything just because we are using HK account? It's not like I don't have a valid credit card. Don't tell me a HK credit card can't be used outside of HK.
    The only solution for now (that's what I do) is that, you change your account info to another country and put a credit card from that country into payment method, if you have one.
