Cannot see iTunes Radio on my device after updating to iOS7
I just have a quick question regarding the iTunes radio function. My girlfriend and I updated our iPhone 5 at the same time. She got the iTunes Radio, and mine is nowhere to be found. I open iTunes and cannot seem to find it anywhere. Anyone else experienced this?
I currently live in Norway with a Norwegian account, if that matters :)
According to zdnet.com (today),
iTunes Radio is only available to U.S. account holders at launch and is also available in iOS 7.
The article is about iTunes 11.1, but I presume the same goes for iOS 7.
Wikipedia (today) states:
Currently, iTunes Radio is only available in the US.
TechCrunch (yesterday) has:
Also remember that iTunes Radio is for U.S. iTunes account holders only for now, with no word on when international users will gain access just yet.
It doesn't matter where you are currently, what matters is that if your account registered as a US iTunes Store or not. I am here in Brasil and I have no problems using the radio here.
I encountered the same problem before & here's the solution that I discovered:
- Go to the App Store & search for your Apple ID at the bottom of the Featured section.
- Tap your Apple ID & select View Apple ID.
- Choose the Change of Country option, then select US as your country, and fill out the rest.
- Once you are done changing the country, repeat Step 1 & 2 but select Sign Out.
- Lastly, sign in again. Then check your iTunes Radio now in the Music app.
