App Store purchases on my IPad Pro

When I attempt an APP Store purchase on my IPad Pro I get this message: ACCOUNT NOT IN THIS STORE. Your account is not valid for use in the French store. You must switch to the U.S. store before purchasing.


What does this mean and how do I fix it?

It means exactly what it says. Your account is only valid on the US store and you are attempting to buy something available only in the French Store.


This usually happens if you follow links to content or apps only available in a store that is different to the one set. For your Apple ID.


To get back to the US App store you will need to sign out, and sign back in to refresh the store.

Settings->Account(tp of settings)->Media & Purchases->Sign Out.

Repeat to sign in.
