Why Apple does not support from Iran? And why not open a store in Iran?
None of us here (fellow Mac users) speak for Apple so we cannot be sure, but the answer should be obvious.
These are a lot , i can't translate all of these! can you summarize them for me?⚠😕
ok, so what is that obvious answer?😮
It is illegal to sell to Iran.

Yes, sure. Basically, it says that we are all pawns in a game whose rules we will never fully understand.
can you summarize them for me?
It's on the first page of the document Tuttle linked to. Actually, pretty much repeated in the paragraph after this first clip:
• EXPORTS TO IRAN - In general, unless licensed by OFAC, goods, technology, or services may not be exported, reexported, sold or supplied, directly or indirectly, from the United States or by a U.S. person, wherever located, to Iran or the Government of Iran.
I highlighted technology.

None of us here have anything to do with it, no matter how many times you repeat yourself.

If you wish to complain further, contact the Iranian and US governments. There's nothing further any of us, your fellow users, can say on the subject regardless of how any of us feel about the matter and hence no point in continuing this thread.

We are just other users of these boards. All we've done is try to answer your question using what information we can find that fits your issue. Other than that, there's not a thing we can do about it.
You think this is an injustice?
I think that injustice relates to rights that are not honored or respected, and I think we can agree that in no circumstance, human, civil, political or legal, is having or owning an Apple ID, or any other consumer item, a right.
Why should this happen? ...Iraq ... Afghanistan....
I believe that Apple, and most American companies, would love to have access to every market in the world, and Iran certainly (or at least, potentially) represents a larger market for Apple products than many countries in which they do business. So, given the choice, they'd be there.
I am curious here on something. Is apple breaking US law by providing applecare to Iran? After all, Apple claims they give world-wide support, to every country.
