Which community supports Israel? Where can I buy Apple Apps, I live in Israel?

I bought an Ipad in March 2102. In Jerusalem Israel


Every time I try to access the apple store in the USA, I get a message that the connection did not succeed.


I get the impression that maybe Israeli's cannot connect with the apple store in the USA.


I have an apple Identity and a password for the Apple store but it doesn't work


Is there any apple support in Israel, its not listed on the Apple site

The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico my first language is Spanish. I do not speak English, however I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.


Welcome from the future! I would think that by 2102 you lot would have progressed beyond iPads, but who knows, Apple does have a winner! 😁


You cannot make purchases on the Apple US website from outside of the US unless you have a US bank card with a US billing address, as well as, a US shipping address. Apple does not make international sales and will not ship a product to an address that Apple knows or believes is a shipping forwarder company. By US law Apple products are embargoed against shipping to certain countries on a list from the US state department and shipping to forwarders may unintentionally violate that law.


This is the website for buying Apple products in Israel;

The Apple website for Israel directs folks seeking support to the Apple UK support website;

Are trying to access the Israeli App Store on the iPad?


Go to the App Store on the iPad. Swipe to the bottom of the screen and tap on your Apple ID in the lower left corner. Then tap "View Apple ID". Enter your password. Then go down to Country/Region and change the store in there.


As Dah*veed stated, you have to have a credit card with a billing address for that credit card in Israel in order to use that store.
