Q: How do I get out of the UK bookstore and back to the US?

All of a sudden, when I go to buy a book, I get a notice that I am in the UK store and don't have a valid account there, so I must return to the US store.

 

Haven't go th foggiest notion how this happened and, worse yet, how to "get back to the US store

    Thanks......  Looks like we've got a really weird problem here.  I followed the instructions and found that I am registered as being in the US, so it's still a mystery as to why the store thinks that I'm in the UK even though my account clearly shows the Stars and Stripes as my location.

     

    What next....who knows?  The bookstore was working fine for the first few days and then this glitch occurred.
