I have three applications available on App Store. The applications belongs to following Categories : Music,Travel & Entertainment , but non of my applications are available for Brazilian App Store. Now my question is -
Is it possible to make my apps available for Brazilian App Store without submitting new build.
If it required new binary to upload, then what are the necessary steps.
Login to itunesconnect.apple.com
Then Select My Apps > Your App
Then navigate to App Store Tab under that select Pricing and Availability
Select Edit option in front of Available in all territories.
Choose the Countries you want to have your app and Save
Note: Also make sure that if want to download the app from particular countries app store then you must have logged in with such apple id that having that country address inside your iTunes & App Store in iPhone Device. Unless you will able to see the app in your iPhone.

I am developing an application. When I click "View on App Store" in the iTunes Connect, it suggests that I change the App Store location (e.g., to the US) to show my app. I don't want to change app store of my apple id, but to change the app store for my app itself, in the itunes connect settings. Where can I find them?
If you checked "Available in all territories" your app will be available in all App Stores around the world. Testing it manually is a rather cumbersome task due to caching and how switching the stores works on iPhones/iPads vs. iTunes.
In the iTunes app on your Mac/Windows machine you can simply switch the stores by clicking on the country flag icon in the bottom right. If your currently logged-in Apple ID is not valid with that store, you will get automatically logged out.
On your iPad/iPhone you have to have an Apple ID valid with the respective store. Sign out with your "old" Apple ID and then in with the new one. You will automatically get switched to the right store.
The easiest way to test if your app is available in different stores is via the web preview. (I'd use Chrome, so Safari doesn't instantly try to open iTunes for that):
Get your App Store link and simply change the store front code, e.g.:
https://itunes.apple.com/de/app/id529479190?mt=8 => German Store
https://itunes.apple.com/cn/app/id529479190?mt=8 => Chinese Store
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/id529479190?mt=8 => US Store
(You can find all the storefront codes at the end of this page: https://affiliate.itunes.apple.com/resources/documentation/linking-to-the-itunes-music-store/)
When Application is live then you can see on ItunesConnect by clicking on "View on App Store".
in iTunes Connect select Pricing and Availability and choose the appropriate App Store locations.

We have an iOS (iPhone and iPad) B2B application that is already working with a specific name. We want to use the same name in another iOS app or convert B2B application into public one.
We have been searching in the internet and we have seen 2 alternatives, but we have some doubts with both:
1-Delete B2B Application.
If we delete this App, will we be able to use the App name for other App in other developer account?
Will the current users' installations of this App be deleted from their mobiles automatically once we delete the App from B2B?
2-Convert B2B to public.
By making some changes and uploading an update to iTunes Connect, can we release the App as normal to the public, moving from B2B?.
Firstly, if you delete the app, you will indeed be able to use the app name again. Secondly, the current users installations won't delete. They will have to manually delete the apps from their devices, as you cannot delete them remotely.
I am not 100% sure about converting an app from B2B to public, but I believe that if you upload it normally to iTunes Connect and the select the stores you'd like to sell it in, as well as the pricing and the submit it for review this will without a problem release it for sale in select stores.
Hope that helps,
Julian
I have an iPhone app on app store. Due to some reasons, my server will not be available for a few days.
Is is possible to make my iOS app invisible on app for a few days and then make the same app available with a new update version?
Remove app from sale in iTunes Connect
Select your app
Click on Rights and Pricing
There is a link 'Unless you select specific stores, your app will be for sale in all App Stores worldwide.', click on the 'specific stores'
Deselect all locations
Save
Please see the following tutorial given by apple and see the portion with the name
Removing an App from Sale
I have currently uploaded an application to the iTunes App Store & the application is online now, i've tried to download the application from an Apple ID registered within the US App Store & it gave me a message saying that "The app is only available in the UK App Store", although i did not specify on which Store I intend to release my app, which basically should make it available in all stores (according to what i read while submitting the application)
So any ideas how can i make it available on all App Stores or is impossible ?
Thank you in advance
You can set the territory in iTunes Connect during you submit your apps.
"The individual countries or territories where you want to sell your app. By default, your app is available in all countries the App Store currently supports."

I uploaded an iOS app to appstore and now the app got released and the release date is showing as 3 August 2012 and yesterday the status (ready for sale) changed. In the uploading process we had specified some places like France, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Belgium in "Select the App Stores where your app will be sold" section.
We tried to get the app in the appstore (US) but we are getting a message as the app is not currently available in US appstore, we are now in India and also we tried to view the app by clicking the view in appstore link in the iTunes connect app page but the above given message is being shown (the app is not currently available in US appstore).
Is this a problem with the selected place for appstore?
In the uploading process we had specified some places like France, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Belgium in "Select the App Stores where your app will be sold" section.
Did those "some places" include the US? If not, I can't imagine why you'd expect the app to be available in the US app store.
Make sure that you have set the Availability date prior to current date. Check in Your App --> Rights & Pricing -> Availability date.
Hope this helps.
For starters, your app is not set as being available to be sold in the US App Store so you will not be able to find your app listed in the US App Store there.
To view the app, you will need an Apple ID that is set up for one of the countries in which the app is available e.g. France.
Log into iTunes/App Store using that Apple ID and you will be able to search the apps for that country.
If you are setting up a new Apple ID just for testing, then I recommend you follow the steps for setting up an Apple ID without a credit card (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2534). Otherwise, you're going to have the extra hassle of having to enter credit card details for a credit card before you'll be able to access the App Store/iTunes Store.
Note: it does take time (i.e. numerous hours) for an app to appear in the app store once you've released it.
