I have an Apple ID created in India. I will be living in US now on. So when I try to buy apps from here, I get a reply saying, I need to change my store to US. So do I have to create a new ID or can I in anyway continue with this same ID ?

You can use the same ID but you will need a U.S. based credit or debit card account.


This applies to the Mac App Store as well as iTunes...
