Purchasing songs from other Itunes Stores
The selection of International music at the US Itunes Store is very limited, to put it politely.
While I can access, view, and listen to, all songs that are available at overseas Itune Stores, (such as Itunes in France); I cannot purchase them even though their price is shown in US currency (99 cents) and not in Euros.
Does anyone know how to purchase and download songs from these other Itune stores, or to contact a real live person at Itunes for help in doing so?

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.

Purchasing songs from foreign iTunes stores
How do I purchase a song available from the iTunes UK store? I get a message that states I can only purchase songs from the USA store. I really want Kid Rock's new song, "All Summer Long" and it's not available at the US iTunes store.
In order to purchase a song from the U.K. Store, you would need 1)a valid U.K address and 2) a credit card billed to that address or a gift card purchase in the U.K. Sorry.

Itunes does not download all purchased songs from the Itunes Store
A few weeks ago, I purchased the latest CD of Lionel Richie from the Itunes Store, but only 4 songs were downloaded. Now every time I try to download the rest CD by either checking for purchases in the Itunes menu or trying to buy the CD again, it tells me the Itunes Store is temporarily unavailable...
Anyone knows how to solve this??I had a similar problem with a Jimmy Buffett album,I sent the iTunes store an e-mail described the problem including the album title and receipt number and within 24 hours they responded and had done a "reset" and problem solved.

I purchased a song from the itunes store and downloaded it to my ipod and it will not play what happens now?
If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copy of the track and try redownloading a fresh one. See the following document for instructions:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item. -

Connect your phone to iTunes, then right-click on the name of your phone on the left sidebar and select Reset Warnings. Then sync again and you should get a warning listing the problem files.

I recently downloaded an album (a gift) from Amazon, one option of which is to download directly to my iTunes library (which is what I did). I also purchased a song from the iTunes store shortly after this. In both cases, the music shows up on my iPod touch in a lighter print than the other music on my iPod. When I select it nothing happens. I only plug into the computer a couple of times a month, but I perform all updates as are indicated and I synch my iPod. Note that when I have iTunes up on my computer, the music WILL play directly from the library, just not on the iPod. Any ideas? Thanks.
Hello zayasva
I would delete the songs and download them again, or plug it into iTunes to resync them back on.

Recently I have not been able to purchase songs from my iTunes on my phone, but can purchase apps with no issue. Has anyone else experienced this issue?
If this is an Alienware system, the most likely culprit is the Bigfoot Networks LSP as per the following document:
Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
Head to the Downloads and Drivers page at Dell for your particular model of Alienware. Look for available updates for your BigFoot networking device. If you update those drivers, does that give you back your Store access? -

I have an iTunes gift card and I have redeemed it. However, I am unable to purchase things from the iTunes Store. How do I purchase an app with my gift card?
Very very likely that tax is applicable and tax is more than $0.01. You need to add a payment method for the tax. If you add a credit card, the girft card balance will be used up first.
