Need some help with Two Accounts.

[DokiDoki]

I have been researching for a while currently after noticing Apple has put like a 90 days lock on your system if you purchase from another iTunes Account which is my own, is there any way to get past this, as I travel quite a bit back and forth soon to Japan. As a Apple help support told me to have two accounts, as I told him my situation, though the lock out is very much frustrating, what can I do to stop the lock out for 90 days as I shall need the things i buy for work etc...

I have 3 iTunes accounts (UK, Canada, USA) in my name and none of them have been locked. I purchase movies on all three accounts.

It doesn't make sense to me that Apple would lock an account because you make purchases on them.

What I mean is, is when I log out, then log into my other apple ID it does it, cause it says i need to wait 90 days

I have an iPad, iPhone, and MacBook.

All three are signed into iCloud using my main Canadian account. I am signed into the app store using my American account. I am signed into the Apple TV app using my second Canadian account. I also have a UK account.

I can switch accounts in iTunes, Apple TV, and the App site to make purchases. There is no waiting time and I switch accounts two or three times per day.

What device are you using?

Weird, i have an iPhone, an iPad and a PC yet whenever I log out after purchasing and downloading something from the Japanese store, it tells me that I need to wait 90 days after a transfer or download had been made, i kind of don’t want to re do it again cause i had to politely ask apple to remove it, but I can show you the message I get when downloading something or trying to

I think that's the difference in that I download only free apps. With iTunes purchases, I do not download the songs or movies. I have an Apple TV to playback my music and movies. My iPhone, iPad, and MacBook have not been authorised to play purchased items.

Is there any other way around it with purchasing stuff? As I really hate this, and if I travel, i can’t wait 90 days for Apple and sometimes i don’t have the time just to ask apple all the time

I don't know that there is a way around it other than possibly signing out of one iCloud account and into the other. I switch iCloud accounts on my iPad and iPhoen too.
