I can no longer purchase anything at the iTunes store. I get error 45064

For the past 18 months I have not been able to purchase items here in Germany. My situation is a bit odd, I have my computer and IP in Germany, my billing is a USA account. I continually get error 45054. No matter what I do, it does not work. I've even gone so far as to cancel my account and delete all iTunes files, nothing works. However, when visiting the USA, I brought my laptop, joined iTunes and was able to purchase music. However, the second I tried to do so, with the same laptop, after returning to Germany, I received the same error notice.
I suspect it's a tax issue, music purchased here in Germany through iTunes is significantly more expensive than the USA site. I'd like find out if an iTunes technician can figure this one out, perhaps even remoting into my computer.

If you are in Germany then you can only use the German iTunes store - you have to be in a country to use its store, using a country's store when not in that country is a violation of the store's terms (terms that you've agreed to) and Apple could permanently disable your account.
Edit : just noticed that your tagline says Windows
This appears to have worked for at least one person : -45054 error on 1 profile, but not the other
Or you could try the troubleshooting on this page which has been posted in response to a couple of 45054 threads : Can't connect to the iTunes Store - Apple Support
If they don't work then you could try asking in the iTunes For Windows forum on here.

Have you redeemed your card?
iTunes Store: How to redeem a code

My account balance was deleted and now I can't purchase anything from the iTunes Store

I redeemed a $100 gift card about a month ago, used barely any of it and now the balance has been deleted from my account. I added another $40 in gift cards today and still cannot purchase anything from the iTunes Store. A red message pops us telling me to contact iTunes Support. How can I:
1) Recover my account balance?
2) Make a purchase?

Try logging out of your account on the iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and then log back in and see if it then works.

Cannot connect to the iTunes store. Get 'Error 11222'. Claims it is being blocked by Windows Firewall when it is allowed through.

When an external application tries to connect to it through iTunes I get 'Error: 11222'. When I try to connect through the iTunes app it just continuously loads but nothing appears. Diagnostics says that Windows Firewall (Which is being managed by McAfee) is blocking it, even though it is allowed through both firewalls I have. Even when I turn WF off iTunes claims it is being blocked by it. I have done almost everything Apple's support pages have suggested but nothing has worked. I'm using it on an Acer Aspire laptop, and the main PC can use iTunes without trouble so it isn't the ISP. I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes twice. Here is a full diagnostics:

The 11222 errors can sometimes be produced by LSP trouble. One of the suspects with that is some versions of McAfee Family Protection. For troubleshooting advice, see the following document:

No longer able to purchase anything in the iTunes store

As of yesterday, I can no longer make purchases. Pressing the "Buy" button just doesn't do anything. Any word from Apple about this problem? I can see others are experiencing the same issue.

I have the same problem. Looks like the latest iTunes upgrade will not work on older operating systems. Can't understand why they would make a change like this and lose many loyal customers. I was renting movies and buying music regularly right up until yesterday and now I can't buy anything. My latest iTunes version is 10.6.3, I hear the most recent iTunes is 11.1. I'll need a new computer to run that.
Is Apple able to do a fix so customers with older OS can still buy from them?

I can't remember my security question answers and I can't purchase anything in the iTunes Store.

So I wanted to buy an app on my new iphone 5 right? Well, the store popped up, window was asking my password all the usual. Until it asked for the answers to my security questions. They were my first teacher, and my favorite teacher. Now because I made this account almost 6 years ago, I honestly cannot remember the answers to these questions! I cannot recall if I had put my actual FIRST teacher's name, or if it was the first teacher who pooped into my head. Ad my favorite teacher? Well that changes daily so who the heck knows what I had then. I just want apple to reset everything for me and let me choose new security questions. I did it for my sister's account, but it won't let me until I answer these darn questions. Someone please help!!

Reset Security Questions
     There are several different methods. Try one. If it doesn't work,
     then try the next one. Don't try to do everything at once.
Frequently asked questions about Apple ID
Manage My Apple ID
Note: you may need to continue entering false answers to the questions until you trigger the response needed to start making changes. It will take six or nine retries.
Or you can email iTunes Support at iTunes Store Support.
If all else fails:
1. Go to: Apple Express Lane;
2. Under Product Categories choose iTunes;
3. Then choose iTunes Store;
4. Then choose Account Management;
5. Now choose iTunes Store Security and answer the bullet questions, then click
      Continue;
6. Sign in with your Apple ID and press Continue;
7. Under Contact Options fill out the information and advise iTunes that you would
      like your security/challenge questions reset;
8. Click Send/Continue.
You should get a response within 24 hours by email.
In the event you are unsuccessful then contact AppleCare - Contacting Apple for support and service.
Another user had success doing the following:
I got some help from an apple assistant on the phone. It is kind of round about way to get in.
Here is what he said to do and it is working for me...
a. on the device that is asking you for the security questions go to "settings", > "store" >
      tap the Apple ID and choose view"Apple ID" and sign in.
b. Tap on payment information and add a credit/debit card of your preference then select
      "done", in the upper right corner
c. sign out and back into iTunes on the device by going to "settings"> "store" > tap the
      Apple ID and choose "sign-out" > Tap "sign -in" > "use existing Apple ID" and you
      should be asked to verify your security code for the credit /debit card and NOT the
      security questions.
d. At this time you can remove the card by going back in to edit the payment info and
      selecting "none" as the card type then saving the changes by selecting "done". You
      should now be able to use your iTunes store credit without answering the security
      questions.
It's working for me ...I just have to put in my 3 digit security pin from the credit card I am using.
Good Luck friends!

Why can't you purchase stuff from the itunes store if you're not in that country? I'm in South Africa and most of the best things I want to download are on the US itunes, so I try switch to it but it won't let me download or purchase? I don't get it?

I don't get why? What's the harm if you're in a different country? We all pay the same way and the internet was made to connect people over the world, stuff is downloaded from different global destinations millions of times a day. So what's the point of having an itunes store and App Store that limits you to the boring stuff in your own country? You read about these great app's, bands etc and find them in search engines, you have all the Mac products, but then you can't use them coz of where you're currenlty living? It's like a horrible tease!
Is there a way around this? Or what can be done in order to access the things I want?
Any advice, suggestions anyone?

The reason is licensing - artists/record companies/TV networks/movie distributors all have separate licensing deals in different countries (or no licensing deals at all). It isn't mysterious or secret.
The only way around this is to have an iTunes account in the other country - either a valid credit card with billing address in that country, or an iTunes gift card from that country (though you'll still be asked for a billing address in the country for which you've purchased the card).

Can't download an app off the app store, I get error 100.

I am trying to download the Logic pro x app from the app store but with no luck. I keep getting error 100. I have tried all the basic procedures shown on the mac support page. My debit card is fine, I just purchased this mac 2 days ago. Does anyone know how to go around this error?

Back up all data.
I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, they may not work as described.
From the App Store menu bar, select
Store ▹ Check for Unfinished Downloads...
You may be prompted to sign in. If that doesn't solve the problem, quit the application and continue as below.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
open $TMPDIR../C
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). A folder should open. From that folder, delete the subfolder named "com.apple.appstore".
Quit Terminal. Launch the App Store and try again.
