My itunes store has changes countries?

Hi there,
I've always been on Australian itunes, but after a trip to the UK over Christmas ny store seems to have automatically changed to UK. Whenever I try to update already purchased apps (appearing in my app store as needing updating) it says
'Account not in this store - your account is not valid for use in the UK store. You must switch to the Australian store before purchasing'.
Any ideas? My phone is on Aus timezone and the ipad that I used in the UK over the same period is still on Aus itunes and updating the same apps (same Apple id) with no problem.
Thanks!

I have done this. It shows the USA. I have even remove my CC info and set it back to the USA ... I log in to iTunes and receive the message - You are not allowed to purchase from xxxxxxx change to the USA store...
What gives?
Help!

The apple store has changed my I broken Iphone to a new one. But when I got it, i did not have all my purchased songs and apps in it.

You will need to plug it into your computer and re-sync them from iTunes. The iPhone is meant to be synced/backed up to iTunes on your computer on a regular basis. It is NOT a primary or backup storage device.

My feeds are updating but the iTunes store has not updated

I put my rss feed up on feedburner and all my feeds have updated but the iTunes store has not updated. I was wondering if there a simple explanation for it. Subscribers to the podcast have gotten the most recent update but the store hasn't reflected the new changes.

When you add a new episode to your feed and upload it, it appears immediately for subscribers because their iTunes application reads the feed directly and the Store is not involved.
However because of the huge number of podcasts in the Store (thousands) the Store caches the feed and checks it for updates periodically. For this reason it usually takes 1-2 days for new episodes to appear in the Store: sometimes it can be less, and occasionally the whole process seems to get stuck and it can take several days.
All this assumes that you haven't made an error of some sort in adding your episode: it's not possible to comment on that unless you would like to publish the URLs of both your feed and the Store page - this latter can be found by control-clicking on the podcast image (or where it should be) - and choosing 'Copy link'. Please include the http:// in both cases to make the links clickable.

All of my music that wasn't purchased from the itunes store has been faded out on my ipod, despite me being able to play them in itunes. half my songs have exclamation points but only in the 'on this ipod' section, and when i double-click no window appear

I'm freaking out because almost all my music except for those songs purchased directly from the iTunes store has been deleted from my iPod - about 35 gigs. The songs show up, but they're all faded out and unplayable from my device (I have the newest version). Exclamation points appear beside all my songs in the "On this iPod" section, and yet I can't double-click to locate the files as nothing pops up. Some of my music has a weird circle next to it and is even more faded out when I'm in the "On this iPod" section - that's been happening for a couple of days. Yesterday I tried to set my settings to sync with my library only, and it worked, but this morning everything got even worse with the rest of my songs disappearing. What's happening???? Help??

The syncing of music is one way, computer to phone. See this helpful document from a fellow user. Credit goes to the author.

Itunes store has stopped working On windows 8

with the most recent update of iTunes (2015, 12.1.1.4- or even later) The iTunes store has stopped working. Every time I open it a window pops up saying "ITunes has stopped working" and then I am forced to close the program and can't get back on it. I own a PC with windows 8. Previously I've never had this issue before. Even when I open ITunes in SAFE MODE the same window still pops up with "ITunes has stopped working'. What is happening and how can I fix this issue?

Greetings Willyme,
As someone who uses iTunes just about every day, I know I would be unhappy with things if I could not get it to launch. Let's see if we can get you back up and running. I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Be well,

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

Since i updated my itunes to 10.5, my itunes store has been blank

Since i updated my itunes to 10.5, my itunes store has been blank. I cant purchase anythg from my itunes and my connection and security setting seem fine. Any ideas?

This tutorial for downgrading says you have to do this when that notice appears after you've downgraded:
iTunes 10.5 upgrades the iTunes library file and won’t let you downgrade, so you will need the prior version library file. Here’s how to go about that
5) You will need to rename iTunes Library.itl to iTunes Library.bak
6) Go into the “Previous iTunes Libraries” folder where you will find several files with dates in their names. The most recent one will have the .itl extension, but the others don’t. Copy that to the parent folder ~/Music/iTunes/ and rename it iTunes Library.itl
7) Congrats. You’re done.

ITunes Store location changes mysteriously

I have updated my iPhone 4S and iPad 2 to the new IOS6. And now iTunes Store keeps changing store location automatically on me and I can't buy nor update any of my apps since my ID only works with the US store. Please help.

Go to the music store and scroll all the way to the bottom. There should be a drop down menu with a circle-shaped flag beside it. Click on it and make your best guess which one is Australia. I hope you understand this, because I wasn't quite sure how to word it.

ITunes Stores for other countries

Hi, have purchased an IPAD in Andorra, Europe, where I live.
Unfortunately no Itunes store exists for that country, therefore I can't purchase any apps with my Andorran credit card.
Now luckily I also have an UK address which enables me to get some apps.
But as I am German and also spend a lot of time in France I want some apps or books or music from other Itunes Stores, which is not possible.
If I could buy everything from the UK Store I wouldn't mind, but some apps don't exist there which is crazy.
Why does Apple want to restrict what I can buy?
They are selling IPads in countries where there are no ITunes Strores but you can't buy things in other languages.
Hey Apple think about it and change the policy. I am happy to spend money but I can't

Why does Apple want to restrict what I can buy?
This has been discussed here countless times already, but Apple doesn't want to restrict anyone. It's the content owners who control what Apple can sell and where they can sell it.
They are selling IPads in countries where there are no ITunes Strores but you can't buy things in other languages.
I'm not aware of any country where Apple has officially released the iPad that doesn't have at least an App Store. What country are you referring to?
If you have a residence in another country, you could perhaps purchase prepaid iTunes cards in that country and open an account with that country's iTunes Store. But otherwise, Apple is required by the content owners, most of whom will not allow cross-border sales, to restrict you to purchasing only in your country. And if they can't get rights in your country, or can't make a business case for the costs of setting up an iTunes Store there, then I'm afraid you're stuck.
Regards.

How to get rid of a few cents (21 cents) on my itunes store to change country (from an american account to a german itunes gift card)

Try contacting iTunes support and ask them if they can remove the balance from your account so that you can change countries : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/ contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

My iPad App Store has changed from the UK store to the US store, how do I get my version back?

My iPad App Store has somehow changed from the UK App Store to the US App Store, how do I get my version back?

Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Apple ID. Tap your ID. Tap View Apple ID. Enter your password. Go to Country/Region in the next popup window and change the store there.

Can't open passbook. No connection iTunes store. Changing date/time is not THE solution.

I can' t open passbook. There is no connection to THE iTunes store. I changed The year into 2013 as recommended, but it did not offer THE solution to THE problem. Does anyone knows what to do?

Same here. I've tried all of the 'solutions' I've found and the only thing that has 'worked' is manually adding a card—but then that's the only card I can see. Trashing the card returns me to the 'Cannot connect to iTunes' situation. iPhone 4S, iPhone 5 scheduled to arrive next week.
I'd think that this Passbook problem along with the 'Maps' fiasco has put another ding in Apple's reputation.

How can I rent a film in Itunes stores in other countries with my apple ID

Hello,
I wanted to ask about how one could rent a film in Itunes store from countries outside of where my mac is installed using my apple ID?

Even having another residence in another country ( not living there ) won't help, isn't it ?
No, it won't. The terms of use for the iTunes Store state that you agree not to attempt to use the service from outside of its country.
And I suppose that there is not a "work around" for this problem ? And if there is, I suppose it can not be mentioned here.
There is no "workaround". The terms are clear on the matter.
But having these restrictions in a country obliges the users, like myself being pro-Apple, to think about doing illegal actions ...
I agree, but it's the content owners who make these decisions, not Apple. The subject has been covered here many times, so I won't get into it yet again, but the issue of rights ownership being fragmented among many different entities in different countries and the problems it presents in the age of digital distribution is a significant one, but no resolution in sight.
Regards.
