Purchasing a gift card in a non-US country I need to send gift cards to our friends in several non-US countries; Europe, Japan, Sweden, etc. I have gotten through the correct site for each country and had no problems until I need to fill out payment information. I'm only given that country as an option; Belgium, Japan, Sweden, etc. The US is not an option. How do I enter my billing address so I can purchase the Apple gift cards in their countries so they can use them? Thanks!

Gift card problem Hello. I have a problem. I'm from Montenegro, Europe. The first gift card I received was from Germany. now i got it from austria, and i can't change the region for it to be accepted, because then i put german so the card would work. I still have 0.04 cents in my account from Stor, which I need to spend first in order to change the region to Austria. and at the same time it does not accept credit cards or this gift card that I just received. how do i solve this?

You won't be able to do it online. You can call Apple and make a cross-border purchase. I've done that before.

Thank you , the instructions they give here , is to shop online at the appropriate international site, that was my issue I went to the UK site but it kept defaulting back to the USA site.
