I just got around the post code for Ireland by putting in 5 zeros and it worked.

s with my address in Ireland, the iStore would not accept Dublin 15 as a
Post-Code. Eventually the Apple Store here in London solved the problem for
me, making enquiries of his colleagues, apparently instead of putting in Dublin
15 we just had to insert the number 1. I am intreagued by this and just
interested to know from those of you with iStore accounts in Ireland how you
overcame this problem of PostCodes.
