Open for any topic using the English language...

Good day to you, iPaduaJoel,

That's nice that got you here.

Normally, we do have a special forum for International User:

Forum: International iPad Users
If you live abroad and are an iPad user, this is the place to go for International specific discussions.


Chinese Dedicated iPad Forum is mainly for iPad Users who wish to communicate in Chinese/Cantonese.

However, "有朋自远方來，不亦樂乎?" ^_^

And we wish to hear more life experience of using iPad in China from you, from the perspective of a Foreigner.
(Maybe then I can try to do some translate if you allow it.)

Thank you Bro... I prefer using English though... And I opened this thread just in case a member, just like me, gets "lost" (Literal and Figurative)... He he...

Now, I was wondering, can I buy iTunes gift cards from Shanghai's Apple Store and use them to purchase from the US based App Store? I wonder if anyone has tried and succeeded... Research Time...

Here is one answer: U.S. Store access from foreign country

Apparently, I could go buy an iTunes gift card from the Apple Store in Pudong or Puxi (Shanghai) but I should make sure the denomination is in USD. Let's keep our fingers crossed. I'll go purchase on Sunday. Will keep this thread updated.

One more thing, for the admin...

In order to post a link from one of the threads, I had to go to Safari, copy the link and go back to the app to paste the link. Is there a work around for this? I mean when you are using the app, can't you post links?

Thank you Madams and Messrs... I hope this will help to improve the iPad Forum app...

It is nice, that mean the iTunes gift card works as Season present?

Failed! According to the Apple 'Geniuses' at both Apple Stores in Shanghai, iTunes Gift Cards are not available in China...

So, that means we will have to purchase online...

Now here comes the Catch 22... I don't want to use credit cards to buy from iTunes that is why I want to use iTunes Gift Cards. But then, in order to buy a gift card, I have to use a credit card?
