Sounds like you aren't logged into iTunes.....can you check?
I am seemingly logged in, because my apple id is written on the lower left. Do you think this problem has to do something with my payment info which is set to none?

Hi and welcome to the Forum!

This may be more to do with where you live, I have my payment method set to none also and I have the full iTunes.
What Country do you live in?

Thank you very much for welcoming me. I live in the Philippines. I'll change it then. Again, thank you.

I believe Leelai is correct and that your location may be the reason your access is limited. I will do some research and see what I can find out about iTunes access in the Philippines and I will post back here.

I'm also from the Philippines and I have the same problem with itunes
Uy! I tried to change my location but there is no none option in the countries chose. Perhaps your payment method is also none?

What you both need to do is open another account for another App store in another region. Midranger has given you a link above for this. Some say that you will be able to open another account for the US store with out a credit card or iTunes card, I myself haven't found this to be so.

You will need another email address and as gmail does not denote a region, I would recommend this type of email account. There are many different app stores around the world and the US app store I would say offers the greatest range of apps. But you will need an iTunes gift card to open one here. These are readily available on the net and as you only need the number on it, this can be emailed to you after purchase. You will also need an address here, do you have a friends address you can use?

Once you do open another account, whenever updates are available you will need to sign out of and into the pertinent account for the update and this is very simple. I hope this helps you.
