Apple Music store regions

I accidentally had my store in Apple Music changed from UK to US, now I can’t play any of my music. I tried following the steps for changing region, but I cannot as I am part of a family sharing group.


All it took was a link to listen to a song in Apple Music, and a pop up to change region to listen came up (which didn’t work), now I’m stuck (it wasn’t a scam or virus, I’m sure)


is there a reverse link or something I can use?

iPhone SE, iOS 14

Hello,


I have posted this in response to similar questions here. Nobody has said it didn't work for them:


Sign out of the iTunes Store [ https://support.apple.com/HT203983 ] and sign in again to get the iTunes Store region to match the region to which your Apple ID country is set, as described in this post: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/250611340?answerId=251184940022#251184940022


1. Go to: Settings > Account > Media & Purchases > View Account > Country/Region

2. Make sure it is set to your normal country.

3. In the "Media & Purchases" menu, sign out and then sign in again.


The above is a simplified version of that in the support document 'Change your Apple ID country or region' ( https://support.apple.com/HT201389 ) except you shouldn't need to do the extra steps involved when you have done a true country change.
