I have heard that the reason I get this message on my IPad is because the South African App Store doesn't have
all the applications that the stores in the other countries have.:thumbsdown:
I have also heard that there is a way around all of that,a way that you can download the wanted apps without
actually having an account in another country.:eek:

Is that true?and if it is.....how do I go about getting this problem fixed?:rolleyes:
I really need some solid advice on this as all the apps I need and want seem to be out of my reach...:thumbsdown:

Please help!!!!!!

Hi and welcome to the Forum!

Yes you can get around this but you do need to create another account for the App Store in another region but it's pretty simple.
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.
