Hi Henk66,

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!

I understand that you need to change the iTunes Store country and your billing information to another country, but you are unable to unless you cancel Apple Music. Please read over the attached article for more information on this situation.

If you can’t change your iTunes Store country or region - Apple Support

iTunes Match subscription or Apple Music membership

If you subscribe to iTunes Match or have an Apple Music membership, you need to wait for your iTunes Match subscription or Apple Music membership to expire.

You might also need to turn off Auto-Renew for iTunes Match or turn off your automatically renewing Apple Music membership.

After your subscription or membership expires, you can change your country.

Best regards

Thanks for the Information. But that doesn´t help.

Apple Music is now blocking my account till October and I can´t update any German App in my Account because

I am in the Irish Store. That´s not what I expected. Apple is blocking me!

I need a workaround asap.
