Hi, yes you will. But you can buy US iTunes gift cards from eBay etc.  This may 
be one way around it or you could download the nook app and set up an account 
on the BN.com website specifying you are in  the US.

Re: Accessing the US iBooks store

2012-12-30 Thread Rahul Bajaj
Hi Brett,

Thanks so much for your reply.
I tried purchasing a book  via Nook by giving my cousin's address who
lives in the U.S., but they cancelled the payment because I was using
an Indian credit card.
But your suggestion about using a US iTunes gift card is really
unique; I never really thought about that option.
I guess I'll have to use my cousin's Apple ID because Apple won't
allow me to create an ID in the U.S. store as I don't have an American
credit card.
I already use his ID to download free apps and books from the U.S. store.
I suppose I'll be able to purchase paid books as well if I purchase
and redeem a gift card, like you suggested.
I've been struggling to find a solution to this problem ever since I
bought my iPhone 8 months ago.
I'll be more grateful to you than you can ever imagine if this works out. :)

Cheers,
Rahul

Re: Accessing the US iBooks store

2012-12-30 Thread Anne Robertson
Hello Rahul,

If what you're looking for is access to ebooks that you can read on your 
iPhone, I've found that Kobo books fit the bill perfectly. I can purchase them 
with my French credit card and read them on either my iPhone using the Kobo 
app, or on my Mac using Adobe Digital Editions.

There is some disagreement about the accessibility of the Kobo app, but I 
posted an explanation of how to use it as a comment on the Applevis site.

Basically, you have to ensure that the page transition style is set to 
scrolling.

You purchase books using your internet browser whether on your iPhone or your 
computer, and the books appear in your library in the Kobo app.

If Kobo isn't available in the Indian iTunes store, you can get it easily from 
the US store as it's a free app.

Cheers,

Anne

Is it possible that someone with a US credit card buys a book and gifts it 
to some other ibook user? If that is possible, I may be of some help.

Hi, if you Google how to create a US iTunes account for free, you should be 
able to find the instructions on how to do so. I did this about two years ago 
and it did work for me. That way you would be able to use your US iTunes gift 
card on your own US account.
