Buying from the Danish iTunes store

Let us say that I'm Danish, have a Danish Passport, live in the Danish Kingdom, have a Visa card from a local bank. How come that I can't buy music from the Danish iTunes Store.

have a Visa card from a local bank.
That's probably why. The iTunes Store requires that the credit card be issued by a bank in the country whose store you wish to use, and though the Faroe Islands are titularly part of the Danish Kingdom, they're autonomous and so probably have separate licenses and copyrights as far as the record companies (who mandate all of these restrictions) are concerned. Residents of the Channel Islands have the same problem with the UK download stores.

Canadian iTunes account - Can I buy from the US iTunes store?

I was thinking about getting Apple TV. I checked out the available content in the Canadian iTunes store and it is small for TV series. The US store has all the shows I want to watch. How can I buy from the US store?

Apple seems to know that you are in Canada. If this is from the ip address, then you are out of luck. If it from the CC you opened your Apple account under, then you could always get a US credit card and set up a new account. You'd then be able to buy from the US iTunes store.

Can i buy from the Canadian iTunes store while in America?

I have a Canadian iTunes card and a Canadian iTunes account. I live in Canada, but I am travelling to the United States tomorrow. Will I be able to purchase from the Canadian iTunes store even though I'm in America???

Yes. I am in the UK and when I travel to the US I can still buy from the UK store. It is where you are resident with a credit card registered not where you are physically.

Is there any way someone from Canada can buy from the usa itunes store?

There are lots of things i would love to have access to in the U.S itunes store or even the U.K itunes store
just wondering if there's any way for a canadian to have a u.s itunes tore account?

No, in order to buy from a country's store you need a valid billing address in that country and be in that country when buying from it. You can try requesting that the content that you want be added to the Canadian store, but ultimately it's the content providers (record company, film studio etc) that will need to grant Apple a licence to sell it there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

If I change the nation setting of my iTunes in order to buy a song from the American iTunes store, then change my setting back to the Korean store (where you cannot buy music) will that create any problems with my downloaded content?

If I change the nation setting of my iTunes in order to buy a song from the American iTunes store, then change my setting back to the Korean store (where you cannot buy music) will that create any problems with my downloaded content? I want to buy an album that I cannot get hold of in Korea, but it is available in the US iTunes store. However since most of my apps are downloaded from the Korean store I'll need to switch back in order to update them. Does anyone know if there are any issues in doing this. I'd rather find out before I spend money, change my store setting back to Korea, and then get told I can't listen to the music because I bought it from the US store and my iTunes is set to the Korean store.
Cheers.

You canot easily change your country settings. The iTunes Store in a country is intended only for use by that country's residents, and only while they are in the country. To use the iTunes Store in a country you need a credit card (or other card type if acceptable in a country) issued in that country, billed to an address in that country, and also be physically present in that country when using the store. You are also restricted to waiting 90 days between country changes.
E.g., "The iTunes Service is available to you only in the United States, its territories, and possessions. You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Service from outside these locations. Apple may use technologies to verify your compliance." - http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/us/terms.html#SERVICE

I want to buy a movie from the america itunes store. How do I, since I am Australian?

I want to buy Bruce Almighty from the american itunes store because the Australian itunes store doesn't have it. I really want it but I don't know how to buy it as I have tryed to login but a sign pops up saying that my account is only for the Australian itunes store.
How do I buy it?

Please help me.

You can ONLY buy from the itunes store of your country of residence (verified by your billing address of your credit card) AND ONLY while inside the borders of that country.

Can i buy items from the American ITunes store?

I live in Australia and would like to buy an item from the American ITunes store. Is this possible without needing an account for that country?

I want to change from the US iTunes store to the Australian iTunes store but I have to spend all of my iTunes store credit, what the **** can I buy with 60 cents?

I want to change from the US iTunes store to the Australian iTunes store but i have to spend all of my iTunes credit first, what the **** will I spend 60 cents on? Should I have purchased unwanted music to the exact value to change country? Why cant I just agree to wipe the credit? it's less than one dollar. Why can't I just transfer it at going market rates (or even cent for cent) when it is only such a small amount and I would make a profit? I don't want to start another iTunes account, it will only lead to problems with what I have already purchased.

You cannot.
You cannot use another countrys itunes store.
You must be physically locates inside the borders of a country to use that countrys itunes store and a credit card issued in that country with a valid billing address in that country.
The owners of the distribution rights of movies/music/etc differ by country. These distributors decide who can sell their content in that country.
Buy from another source if your countrys itunes store does not carry somehting that you want.

I'd like to buy a song from the Australian iTunes store but when I try to purchase, it says I am only authorized to but from the US iTunes Store. Any suggestions? Thanks!

You could check to see if there are any other stores that you can buy the song from. How about the artist's website? I've bought a couple of MP3s and even CDs from Australian artist's websites.

In general, what are the differences between countries' iTunes offerings? Does one really need an address and a credit card for any country to be able to access that countries iTunes store? Why these restrictions?

I am a Brit living in Germany. I really need to be able to purchase from the German iTunes Store (in €) and the English one (in £). How can I set this up from my iPad?

Technically correct (the best kind of correct)
Now if the Op has and retains a UK account with billing address and UK paymant card - He/She can continue to use the UK store in Germany - Apple does NOT use IP address blocking just a valid paymant card attached to a postcode !
Basically the first four of your paymant card are country codes.
What the op needs to do if he/she now has a Germany address and payment method (could just be German € value gift cards) is to open a separate German iTunes Account !
On a PC/Mac its very easy to change stores, however iOS has it a bit more difficult.
In fact i would recommend the Op sets up a new German account and credentials on a PC/Mac first.
And doing so just means opening the store in iTunes scrolling to the bottom of the screen and clicking on the littler circular flag in the bottom right.
After that the browser window is populated with loads of similar disc flags. Clicking any take you to that regional store where provided you have a valid address (Postcode/Zipcode actually) and payment method local credit/debit some prepayment VISA cards or just a gift card you can create a local account.
Oh and because Apple do NOT use IP addressing you don't actually have to be present in the country of that store. Its against to terms of the EULA but it works !
Back to the iOS device
Tap Settings/iTunes & App Store /Apple ID (that will probably be showing the UK account set up).
In the window that opens tap log out
Now change the ID to the new German name and password and in the next window make sure the flag selected is that of Germany (when in Germany)
When buying from the UK store follow that path again log out of the German account and re-log in using the UK ID
As it happens I have a UK Portuguese and US account all active because I have residences in all three - and can visit any of the stores from anywhere.

How come I can buy foreign books through Amazon as e-book, but the same book can't be downloaded from iTunes? That doesn't makes sense.
Why would you think that all stores would have the same policy?
Amazon allows it, iTunes does not. That is why. Like most companies, Apple does not forward explanations to al of their decisions to the general public. It does not have to make sense to you, for it to be true. Apple has teams of experts that have determined that this is how they should conduct their business.
With iTunes, you cannot use other countries stores.
Sorry
