HI Everyone,

 

Igot a bıg Proglem with downloading apps from dıfferent stores. let me explaın it. I am a German lives in Turkey the Last 10 Years and have a Turkish app store account. Because of my work i have to travel a lot and im changing locations much more then everyone... So, now im in Swiss since 6 months. i try to use the mobile aplication of my Bank but i cant install it cuz i dont have a swiss apstore account. So, i try to open one. it goes perfect till the payment informations. i have a option between amex master and visa card, i use a master card but its origin is Turkey and the system dont accept it so i cant donwload the app or any app who is in the swiss app store. any way i cant belive that we have to open for ecery country a different email account and apple ID and different payment option... in this case u must have 10 of it and thats realy ***** so do have anyone any idea how can i solve this problem ?

 

Thnx !

    Hi ıammartymcfly,

    I understand that you want to change the iTunes Store because you are in a a different county. That is something that you can do but does require a credit card from the region that you are visiting. Take a look at the information below for more information. 

    Change your iTunes Store country or region
    https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201389

     

    What you need know before you change your country or region

    When you change your iTunes Store country:

    • You need to update your billing address to one in your new country. When you change your billing address, the primary address in your account at My Apple ID and your other Apple services, such as the App Store and iCloud, automatically updates.
    • You might need to update your payment method. For example, only German credit cards can be used to buy content from the German iTunes Store and App Store.
    • You won't see the items that you purchased from the previous country’s store in your Purchased section.
    • You won’t see the items from your iCloud Music Library that you matched, uploaded, or added from the previous country’s store.

    When you make a purchase in the iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, or Mac App Store, the country in your iTunes Store account information must match the country listed in your account at My Apple ID.


    Take care
