“his message often appears when you are in a different country or region other than your home country,”

No it does not. It has nothing to do with travelling, Your article is misleading.

This is because you have recently changed your icloud region to different billing country. However the App Store on some devices get out of sync.

I know this because I change my region approximately 3 times a year to access apps that are restricted to specific countries or regions. Also, I nearly never in the country that my icloud region is set to.

The app store is out of sync. Usually, logging in and out of my iphone, and rebooting it, solves the problem.

I can’t watch anything on my Apple TV app I just purchased. It’s telling me the shows/movies/etc… are not available in my country or region. I still live in the same are since 1985. When I go to change my country or region it tells me I have 2 or more Apple TV’s and must cancel the devices.

THANK YOU. I was about to try to waste my itunes money because that’s what it kept prompting me to do and it was getting frustrating so thank you very much.

In reply to Oscar Baptiste. Try deleting your apps completely and then downloading them again.

This happened to my kids and me (we have 5 iPhones + several macs all joined together through Family Share) and I tried all of the above plus spending 3 hours on the phone with Apple Support and talking with four different members of their Apple Support team. All the regions were the same; we turned on and off the computers, iPhones, AppleID, iTunes and App Store several times.

That wasn’t the problem. Four IT specialists later, they finally pinpointed the problem.

The problem was that we had all initially used my husband’s Apple ID to set up the iPhones. All of the apps were automatically downloaded because they were part of his profile. My husband’s Apple ID must have the region set to US. So when we tried to update the applications that were initially downloaded via his Apple ID, we received this error message (because we are not living in the US). The only way to fix this was to delete every single application and then re-download them again using our own IDs. Takes a lot of time, but only a fraction of the time I spent on the phone with the Apple IT Service team.

In reply to Karen. Thanks Karen - after trying all the other above ideas, it was your sign out from the App store and back in that got me back from the US store to my home UK store.

I own an iPhone 6s. For the last three weeks, I have been getting an “Account Not In This Store” error message when I attempt to download updates for my apps.

With respect to my Apple account, only my credit card information needed updating (and I have done that) as my previous card expired in October 2018. My only other change was from the US store to the TT store.

I have tried the tips listed in the “toolbox”, however, I am still encountering the same error message when I try to download. I have been trying for the last week to resolve this condition; I am now out of ideas!!!!
