How To Get Back To US iTunes Store

Somehow while looking at different apps I got sent into the iTunes UK store. Now I can't buy any apps. Everything shows prices in British Pounds. When I try to sign in it says my Apple ID can only be used in the iTunes US store, and says it will switch me back to the US store. However, it just freezes up the computer and I get a "not responding" message. I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes, but I am still in the UK Store. I can't buy anything. How do I swich back to the US iTunes store?

Click on your user id and log out, then log in with the user name that is relevant to your USA account.

Go to the bottom of the screen, click the flag, then select your store.

Ok so I was wondering the exact same thing as I tried recently to do something and it sent me to the uk store through some thing on tumblr. Anyway a much simpler and self explanatory way is to (if you are on an iPhone iPod iPad or iPad mini) go to the bottom where it has your account user name and click on it. From there it will pop up with a list of actions. Click "view apple ID" where it should say your account is valid only in the US store. From there it will ask you if you would like to proceed back to the US store. I realize this is about a year too late but I'm hoping this can help somebody in the future

I jits had this problem and what worked for me was going to the bottom and clicking on your Appl ID. Then "'View Apple ID" then "Country/region" and find United States. This worked for me
