Access to US-iTunes-Store from foreign countries?

Hi! I have a special amount of Dollars on my iTunes-Store-Account. Can I also buy music/videos/etc. when I log into the internet in a country outside the US? Or does the Store automatically detect that I am in a foreign country and doesn't allowed a purchase?
Please answer ASAP.
Thank you!!

Where you are does not matter.
Where you are registerd does.
If you have registered and purchased from the US store, you can continue to purchase fromn the US stare, regardless of your physical location.

HT5731 Purchase items on iTunes Store from multiple countries

Hi
I am Japanese living in the UK. My iTunes ID is registered apparently only in the UK (as my credit card details are in the UK) and does not let me purchase from iTune Store Japan using my account.
Is there any way to get both countries' iTunes Stores work with one account/ID?
Many thanks!

If you are in the UK, that is the only iTunes Store you are allowed to use, whether you use a single ID or multiple IDs. The terms of use for each iTunes Store disallow use of the Store from outside of its country.
Regards.

ITunes Stores from different countries

Is there any possible way I could buy something from a different iTunes store (different country) with an account registered for the U.S.?

I live in Italy. My banking is entirely in the US. Our iTunes store is US. We have been given 3 or 4 gift cards and we have a valid Italian address. On a different discussion string, someone said that:
In order to buy from any given country's iTunes Music Store, you must have either:
a) a credit card with a billing address in that country, or
b) a mailing address in that country and a gift certificate or a prepaid card that was bought in that country.
Well, we have all of b) but even creating a new account seems to require a credit card. Please help prevent me from bad mouthing the next person who gives me a iTunes card.

ITunes store from country I am residing in

I'm living in Europe for awhile from the US. My iTunes store account is for access to the US store, how can I get access to the iTunes store from the country I am currently residing?

If you still want to use the US iTunes Store, then as long as you still have a credit card with a billing address in the US, you can continue to use the US Store. You will not be able to use the US Store if your credit card now is being billed to a Norway address.
If you want to open an account in the Norway iTunes Store, you'll need a Norwegian credit card or an iTunes prepaid card purchased in Norway.
Regards.

I tried to update the App that I purchased but the message told me that my Apple account is not valid for use outside of US and I must switch back to US store to able to do it. How can I switch the account from foreign countries back to US?

On your phone (from http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1311):
Change your iTunes Store country
Sign in to the account for the iTunes Store region you'd like to use. Tap Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID: > View Apple ID > Country/Region.
Follow the onscreen process to change your region, agree to the terms and conditions for the region if necessary, and then change your billing information.

TS1424 HELLO! whenever i try to access the itunes store from the itunes on my laptop i get this message: ITUNES HAS STOPPED WORKING a problem caused the program to stop working correctly. windows will close the program and notify if a solution is availabl

for a few weeks i have not been able to access the itunes store from the itunes on my laptop. every time i click on it it tells me it cannot access the store...not sure why. and says this: ITUNES HAS STOPPED WORKING a problem caused the program to stop working correctly. windows will close the program and notify if a solution is available.

I had this exact same problem. I found this fix and it worked for me.
Step 1:
Browse to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support and copy the filen named QTMovieWin.dll.
Step 2:
Browse and past that file into C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes.
Hope this helps you. I wish I could remember where I saw this originally so I could thank them.
Good Luck.

I have the latest version of Itunes downloaded and installed to my computer. I have a music library already created for my replaced Ipod Nano. I've just purchased a new Nano. When I try to access the Itunes store from the Itunes program, it gets hung u

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Itunes, but it still gets hung up when trying to access the Itunes Store from the Itunes program.
I've been unable to register the new Nano or sync it with my library.

Many thanks.
With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

(If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.)

I've tried everything but can't access iTunes store from my ipad. Apple ID is fine and logged in to iTunes on pc. Still no luck. Anyone any other alternatives? Thx.

You may think you are connected to the internet, but maybe not. Click on Safari and see if it connects.

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

I'm unable to access the Itunes Store from my Windows 8?

I recently recieved a new laptop, operating on Windows 8. {Note: This is my first Windows computer, I transferred over from Mac}. I decided to open up a new Apple ID to get away from my parent's account, so that was all set up pretty easily.
Now, however, i find that I can't access the Itunes store from the Itunes application.
A message, I'm unable to find it now, it no longer appears, instead I get a blank screen instead of the store, read something similar to "not being able to open itunes store, please check your cookies and account details. {sorry if that's too vague, but it definitly had to do with my cookie settings making it unable to open.}
I'm at a loss at what to do next. My account is perfectly set up, but where and how to adjust the cookies so that the itunes store can open?

Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

I cannot access the iTunes store from any of my computers. When I updated to v. 10.7 it made my laptop unable to access just like with my two desktops. I have installed and uninstalled numerous times.

Nothing happens. iTunes just hangs up every time, saying "Accessing iTunes Store." It does that for a very, very long time, then nothing. Here is what happens when I run diagnostics.

Accessing iTunes Store from oversees country...is it possible?

Hi
I am a new user of iPhone 3GS. I live in United Arab Emirates, UAE and I bought the iPhone from a local ISP called "Etisalat"
The probles is that I cant access the iTunes Store from my iPhone and it keeps telling me that iTune Store is not supported in your country !!
Any solution?

As far as I know, the UAE is still in talks with Apple, amazon and Sony to allow residents to download music, books and films. Apparently this is supposed to come out of negotiations between these companies and the TRA (Telecommunications Regulatory Authority) in the UAE. You're just gonna have to wait until the TRA approves such.

- You may need to reset your keychain. Connection issues are occasionally caused by keychain issues. Learn how to use Keychain First Aid to resolve any issues with your keychain.
