Q: Apple needs to add a "language selection" for iTunes~!!!

I live in Mexico, but I'm an American. I bought and ipod in Mexico and have a mexican address. Why can't I change the "display" information in iTunes to english? Why I have to read "busqueda avanzada" instead of "advanced search"????

iPod touch

    Sent one more email. But, as I sadly read on several posts, Apple will do NOTHING to fix it (since 2008). Of course, why should they? They got my money already...

    Take a look here:

     

    iTunes: Changing the display language

     

    If you're referring to the iTunes Store, those are always available only in the legal language of the country of the store. I would suspect that to make each country's iTunes Store available in multiple languages would be a massive amount of work, and clearly Apple doesn't see that it makes sense. We can't say it won't change in the future, but unless and until the media companies allow some sort of "international' iTunes Store, something not likely in the forseeable future, having an iTunes Store in multiple languages in any country except those with multiple legal languages is unlikely.

     

    And no, Steve is not "rolling in his grave". This has been the case since long before Steve passed away, and if he felt that it made sense, he would have insisted on it.

     

    Regards.
