You don't...
You must be within the Country with a Valid Billing Address and Credit Card for that Country to use the iTunes Store of that Country...

HT4480 itunes card from other countries.

I made my account in the U.S. so when ever I bought an itunes card, it would obviously say $15 or $25 or $50 and so on. In dollars. But now I'm in a different country. Mexico to be exact. I want to purchase itunes cards but their cards use Pesos instead of dollars. So here is my question: Can I use the itunes cards from other countries on my account even though they use Euros or Pesos and so on? Thanks to anybody that can answer this for me.

No, you can only redeem gift cards for an account that is of the same nationality as the GC you are redeeming.
If you want to redeem for Euros, this will not work in your US store, you'll need to make a whole new store account.

Purchasing TV series from other countries

Can I purchase a tv series only available on the Australian iTunes site and download it on my MAC in the US?

No, you can only buy and download from your own country's store - to be able to buy from the Australian store you will need to be in Australia with an Australian billing address on your account.
You can try requesting that the series be added to the US store, but unless the TV company grants Apple a license to sell it there then Apple won't be able to : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

How can I download from other countries iTunes Stores?

I want to download from other countries iTunes stores but I have of course not a credit card for each of these countries and I can use my e-mail address only once (logically )to register. Any chance that I can download from i.E. the French store when I live in the UK?
Thanks for helping me if possible

Unless you can show some form of residency you cannot buy from another country's store. The question on cross store purchasing is asked frequently so I'll just quote the most complete answer (courtesy of Dave Sawyer) from the many given:
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.
If you cannot fulfill one of these two sets of conditions, you will not be able to purchase from any given country's iTMS.
.......this is due to restrictions placed on Apple by the record companies and other rights holders (who are often completely different from country to country and so all require their own individual negotiations and contracts), not by Apple's choice. And this also applies to all the legal download stores that carry major-label content, not just the iTMS.

Does Anyone Know How to Buy from Other Countries' iTunes

Hey, I was just wondering if anyone knows how to buy from other countries' iTunes, because I live in the US and have a US credit card, but alot of the songs I want only seem to be available on the French site.
Does anyone know if theres some sort of way around this? Would it be possible to, say, buy French iTunes gift cards?

No, you cannot due to Licensing and copyright issues, which vary from country to country. Unless you have a billing adress in France, you will not be able to purchase from the French iTunes store. Having a gift card from there will not help, because you need to also have a French Billing adress. Sorry,

Songs from other countries' iTunes stores

Why are songs from other countries' iTunes stores not available for purchasing in the American iTunes store? I found a song that I had been looking for in the French iTunes store, but could not buy it. I was annoyed. Is there any way around it?

In order to buy from a certain country's iTMS, you do need
either: a CC with a billing address in that country
or: an address in that country plus a prepaid card/gift voucher issued by iTMS in that country.
If you don't meet one of this conditions, there is no solution for you.
-sorry but the copyright holders wanted it that way; it's their decision to offer a certain track in a certain country or not to offer it.
Tip; This question on how to buy from another country is asked several times a week in the forums. In the future, I would suggest you do a search on your issue to see, if it has already been answered, that way you don't have to wait quite a long time for a response.

For some reason I am unable to access my purchased itunes music from my icloud or from my computer. I suddenly get this message: say that I the original location for the song cannot be found.

For some reason I am unable to access my purchased itunes music from the purchased folder in the itunes store or in my icloud. The descriptions of the songs I purchased are there, but when I attempt to play them it says that the original location of the song cannot be located. This is so frustranting. How do I get my songs back??

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

ITunes Stores for other countres

does anyone know if it's possible to download from other countries stores? I've tried and it's not allowing me. Better still, does anyone know if TV shows and sports will be in the Australian store. Currently, the Australian store is useless for videos! Thanks.

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Unfortunately, you can only purchase music from the store for your country.
We're all just users here, so we don't know if/when TV shows and other videos will be available in the Australian store.

Buying books for iBook on iPad from other countries - any ideas?

Can anyone tell me if they have been able to buy books from other countries for iPad if they are not available in their own country. I am from Australia and want to purchase "Cold Comfort Farm" by Stella Gibbons. Thanks Elizabeth

If it is not available in your country it is probably because Apple has not yet negotiated the required distribution rights. The fix is to use another ereader app, like Kindle, Nook, or Googlebooks.

Different countries have different mobile phone systems which work on different standards. An iPad sold in country C will work with whatever phone systems in country C support it. It is not guarenteed to work with every mobile phone system all over the world.
