Q: Buy Book - Shipping addresses don't work
Photos Version 1.5 (370.42.0)
I have put together a photo book. I choose "Buy Book". Note that I am in Singapore and my Apple ID country and Photos app country are both set to Singapore.
Whether I choose "Add Shipping Address"...
...or choose one of the shipping addresses already there...
...invariably what happens is that I get a nonsensical "Suggested Addresses" selection (usually one suggestion, but sometimes two, depending on the address):
If I select the "corrected" address, Photos complains about it being incomplete:
Choosing "Fix" brings up the Contacts app. Any "corrections" I make there seem to have no influence at all over whether the address is deemed valid. It never is.
Alternatively, if I choose "Ignore Suggestions":
I get an "Unexpected Error" (at least it's not an expected error. A small relief):
This leads to an infinite loop. There seems to be no way for the system to accept any valid Singapore address, and using overseas addresses lead to an "Unsupported Country" error:
Has anyone in Singapore ever successfully ordered a book from Photos?
