I can undoubtedly say, that this is probably the most important thing that you can do when you have an iPhone. By having a US iTunes account, you are able to download all of the cool apps, compared to whats available on the South African store. You can also buy songs from the iTunes store. Hows how to do it: 1. At the bottom of the screen in the iTunes store page, choose United States from the drop down. Make sure you are signed out of the SA iTunes Store if you have one  2. On the right of the US iTunes store you should see the Top 10 Free Apps. Select anyone one of these apps, and click get app. BE SURE TO SELECT A FREE APP, otherwise this will NOT work !!!!!!
 3. You will now be asked if you would like to sign in with an existing account or if you want to create a new account. Click “Create New Account”
 4. Go through all the steps required to create a new account.
Tips i) Use FakeNameGenerator.com to get a US Address that is needed to open an account. Don’t worry as this address is not used, so nothing will ever get sent there. This site allows you generate a fake profile, with US address and contact details. Bookmark it !!ii) Use a valid email address, as you need to verify the account before you can use it. You will need to use a different email address to what you have registered to the South African store, otherwise it will shout at you. A neat trick is if you use a gmail address, for eg. iphonesrock@gmail.com, you can also use iphones.rock@gmail.com and you will still get the mail. Put a dot anywhere in your gmail address and you instantly have a new email address. 5. When you get to the”Provide a Payment Method” of the signup, you are asked for payment details. Make sure you choose NONE on the right. Make sure you aslo have United states selected at the bottom
6. You now have a fully fleged US iTunes account, but only able to get free apps ? But wait, there is more. Buy a iTunes voucher, load it onto your account, and you can now buy all the cool apps as well. You are now ready to go buy a voucher and start downloading straight away here Original article can be found here |
