App store no longer works after installing iOS6 while traveling

Hi,
I have an iPhone 4S that I updated to iOS 6 while traveling in Brazil. Now, even though my Apple account was created in the U.S. tied to the U.S. App Store, when I open the App Store it automatically goes to the Brazilian App Store and pops up an error message that my account is invalid for use in the Brazil App Store because it is an American account. I've been using the App Store just fine for years from various countries as I travel. It has always gone directly to the U.S. App Store regardless of where I am in the world. Now it only seems to pull up the Brazilian App Store and not allow me to update apps or make purchases.
My question is has anyone else experienced this? Is it because I updated to iOS 6 while physically traveling in Brazil so the phone thinks it is a Brazil-based phone or is it a bug in iOS 6 that prevents you from using App Store while outside the U.S.? I haven't been able to test what it does when I'm in the U.S. as I haven't returned yet. All of my settings on the phone are in English and set up for U.S. settings - there's no setting in the phone set up for Brazil or the Portuguese language.
If this is because I installed iOS 6 while in Brazil, how do I fix that? Do I have to re-install iOS 6 while in the U.S.? If so, how do I trigger a re-install and what do I do in the meantime to use App Store while traveling? Is there a work-around that allows me to switch it from the Brazil App Store to U.S. App Store? The error message I receive indicates that I need to change to the U.S. App Store in order to install apps but doesn't mention how to do that, as there don't appear to be config options in App Store.
Any help would be appreciated..
Thanks,
Brent

Hmmmm... would appear that you need to be actually logged in to enable the additional menu features.
Have you tried deletting the plists for MAS?
This page might help you out...

Failing that, I will have to throw this back to the forum to see if anyone else can advise further.
Let me know how you get on?
Thanks.

Disk Utility (Applications - Utilities - Disk Utility) Repair Disk Permissions 2x. Then restart in Safe Mode and try both apps. Restart normally and post results.

App store doesn't work after iOS6

App Store doesn't work after ios6. Re-booting doesn't work. Suggestions please.

I have the same problem with my New iPad.
It was fine until this afternoon when I upgraded to ios6.
I don't have the wifi issues that others have reported but my AppStore doesn't work anymore.
It's just the AppStore that won't work.
Though Purchased and Updates looks OK, "Featured," "Charts" and search all return no results - just a big gray screen in the middle. I've been walked thru a Restore by Support but nothing's worked so far. I've tried logging off and logging back on.
From what I can tell, everything else (iTunes, apps, etc) look ok.
Any other suggestions?

Many Apps are no longer working after webOS 1.4 update! - please help!

Hi,
Many of my previously working Palm Pre Apps are no longer working after the webOS 1.4 update.
Here are the ones that just return a blank/white screen after launching so far:
SplashID
Daily Devo
Daily Light (Love)
Absolute Fitness (some options no longer work correctly & are returning a white screen and some options are working)
These are just a few of the Apps that I am having problems with and there are probably many others. I have also sent emails/posted to forums on the developer sites to advise. Hopefully I will hear something back soon.
Anyone else experiencing this issue as well with any Apps?
Thanks in advance for any help that you can provide.

SplashID on my Sprint Pre is showing just a blank screen after starting it and entering my password. I see no update for it in the App Catalog.
EDIT: Never mind. It appears that it only did that on the first launch. I closed it and restarted it, and now the screen in SplashID is correct.

My ImageClass MF4380dn Cannon Multifunction Copier driver no longer works after installing Mavericks. How can I resolve this?

My Image Class MF4380dn Cannon Multifunction Copier driver no longer works after installing Mavericks. I have checked with Cannon and they do not list my partricular machine among their driver updates. Is there another place to download a driver suitable for Mavericks?

Your MF4380dn is supported by the latest UFR2 v10.4.0 driver that supports 10.9. Here is a link from the Canon Australia web site,
http://support-au.canon.com.au/contents/AU/EN/0100491502.html
Before installing this driver, please remove the MF4380 from Printers & Scanners (unless you have already performed the reset that Carolyn mentions which will remove it for you). Then run the v10.4.0 installer and when it has completed, open Printers & Scanners and add the MF4380.

Drag and drop to photo shop no longer works after installing Apple "Photos"; It was working fine before the latest Apple update (10.10.3) . what can be done?

drag and drop to photo shop no longer works after installing Apple "Photos"; It was working fine before the latest Apple update (10.10.3) . what can be done?

Nothing. It's nothing to do with PSE; this is a limitation of Photos, as is the loss of being able to use an external editor without exporting copies of your images.

My telus email no longer works after installing the new os Yosemite

my telus email no longer works after installing the new os Yosemite

This is a problem between Telus and Yosemite. Telus, of course, blames Apple.
Check the box that says "Allow insecure authentication" That will get your email working.
However, this box will get un-checked when you stop start Mac Mail. The next time you start Mail, you'll have to re-check it for each Telus account. (This is the bit that Apple needs to fix.)

The app store no longer works since iOS 5.1 update?

Ever since I did the most recent iOS Update for my iPod Touch 4G (purchased Dec 2010), the app store no longer works. I know for a fact it is NOT a billing problem with missmatched security code on my credit card. I had that before and resolved it.
This time, it seems that when I download an update to an app or a new app, it starts to download and then says "Waiting..." but in eternity. The download doesn't commence. I already tried resetting the network, powering off and on, deleting the apps and readding them as new and using different WiFi networks (FOUR) to make sure that wasn't the issue. Nothing seems to fix this.
Any suggestions?

Just put you finger on the camera and drag it up and Lock screen will shift up.

Many of my System Preferences will no longer work after installing Mountain Lion. Software update, startup disk, iCloud, etc. no longer will launch. I keep getting a drop down window saying I must restart system preferences in order to use. No go!

Many of my System Preferences will no longer work after installing Mountain Lion. Software Update, Startup Disk, iCloud, Time Machine, Notifications, etc. no longer will launch even though they do show their icons in the system preferences window. I keep getting a drop down window saying I must restart system preferences in order to use with a "Cancel" or "OK" choice. After I click on "OK" the window just keeps reappearing with the same choices and the pane I wish to use still remains inoperative. Third party preference panes DO work.
Reinstalling OSX Mountain Lion did not help. Neither did throwing away preferences.plist.

Hi Jeff,
Tried to reply with my iPhone but not easy! Anyway, back on the laptop now. Yes the crash was bad but Tek support at Prism Sound was really good. In the end I rebuilt the whole system on a new disk which took a couple of days with all the plugins, softsynths etc.... but there seemed to be no alternative in my case, and this was agreed with Prism sound as being the only alternative left to me. I still don't really know what caused the crash but ML and Orpheus are both working fine now. Let's face it, you'll have to update at sometime..maybe best to pick some time between projects On balance, I suspect that my problems were unique to my system and that your installation will go ok.
Hope it goes well,
Rick

Some USB ports no longer working after installing Mountain Lion?

Some of my USB ports are no longer working after installing Mountain Lion onto my 21' 2011 iMac. I used to plug in my iphone 4S and charge it, or transfer files onto my iPad but none of the ports no longer work to do this. Funnily enough, other equipment plugged into the works. I have tried changing the cable. Any ideas?

In my experience, the USB ports on the back of an Apple monitor can be re-enabled simply by unplugging and plugging back in the device in question. You might also check to see that the USB Monitor hub shows up in System Profiler. My Apple monitor USB ports experienced no changes in moving to 10.4.7.

ITunes no longer works after installing IOS7

iTunes does not work after installing iOS 7

Try switching the "Block cookies" setting in Safari from "Always" to "From third parties and advertisers" and then reboot. This worked for me without having to reload iOS7 or reset all settings. Good luck.
