Buying itv player app from Ireland

Gerry1995

Anyone know how I can buy and download the itv player app in Ireland, and I am familiar with problems playing them

Not unless you have an apple ID that is setup for the GB store, probably a way to get it if you jailbreak but let's be honest that's not worth it.

Do you know can that be done from ROI ?

It should be pretty easy.

1. Open iTunes on your PC.
2. Sign out of your current Apple I.D.
3. Scroll to the bottom, click the Irish flag and change the store to UK.
4. Go to the App store and search for ITV Player.
5. Click 'Free' underneath to attempt to buy the App.
6. It will ask you to sign in or create an Apple I.D. Choose create I.D.
7. Follow the instructions. Set up email/DOB/security questions.
8. On the next page choose 'None' as the payment method. This will allow you to download free apps using the UK I.D.
9. Follow any remaining instructions and then, when you're done, download the ITV app.
10. Once it's downloaded click your Apple I.D. and sign out. Sign back in with your original Irish I.D. and change the store back to Ireland by clicking the UK flag.

not that i'm personally aware of on both accounts. But I'm sure someone else will come along and tell you it's possible.

Brophs, this nearly works, but even selecting payment method NONE you must supply a UK billing address

Use a friend's or just generate an address here. http://www.fakenamegenerator.com/m/#_home. Change the country to UK.

regardless of whether you download the itv app, it only streams the tv shows to a device in the uk afaik (ip address etc.)
