If you created a new Apple ID, you do not have access to any apps you bought with the old Apple ID.


If this is a new Apple ID you will need to set up a new payment account to use it with iTunes and the App Store.


Open the Music app. Click iTunes Store. On the right side of the store click Account in the Quick Links. Follow the on-screen instructions to set up the account and provide a payment method.

I have tried it many times the situation is same. I am texting from Pakistan and I tunes are not available in Pakistan. Kindly help me in solving this issue. I have recently bought my MacBook Air M. I am tired of filling it again and again. tell me what should I do?
