Change country without Android device?

by MarkinA2

Just got one of the new Chromecasts with Google TV and I really love it. To me, this is really the future of TV. However, I moved to the UK last year and Google has my Google Play account (I think?) stuck in the USA. I wasn’t able to get iPlayer or other UK content.

I created a fresh Google/Google Play account in the UK, but now all my purchased movies, etc are gone and I cannot view my Google photos via the Chromecast.

The only instructions I can find anywhere on the web to convert my existing account to a different country start with “on your Android phone or tablet...”. I do iPhone/iPad. I cannot find any way to do this without an Android device.

Thank you for any advice you may have.

If you dont have an android device . Try this one

  1. Install Bluestacks in your laptop/mac from here https://www.bluestacks.com

  2. Use the playstore app In bluestacks emulator to switch the country. You may need to sign in with the google account that you wish to change to bluestacks

You can change the country inside the Play Store app on any Android smartphone but since you say you have an iphone/ipad, did you check on the Play Store website using your iphone/ipad web browser?, if not go to play.google.com and then head to "account" on the hamburger menu.

On the Settings->apps page, force close Google Play Store, clear cache and data, and open it. This should set the new country. Hope this helps. If not, add a new google account and do the same above.
