In my household, we have 2 ipads, 1 iphone, and two 4th gen iPod touch. All are using my itunes account. The problem is 1 of the ipod touches displays the APP STORE in spanish, and ONLY the app store. This does not happen on ANY of our other devices and they are being used in the same exact location. I have check every possible menu setting, but cannot get this ipod to display in english. The weird thing is that when I open a section such as "updates" the top of the page will actually say UPDATES, then switch to "actualizaciones".

I have updated the ipod to 5.1.1 and let it set up as new device.

I have also verified that the device GPS is working as it shows me in the proper location.

Anyone have any ideas?

Go to the bottom of the App Store on the misbehaving iPod and look for the Apple ID button (at the bottom of most tabs). Tap it to sign out of the store, then tap it again to sign back in with the correct Apple ID.

Wow. That was easy. Thank you! Though I would like to understand what that did. I just put back in the same iTunes username that was in that field already. So what changed?

Somehow or other the App Store got linked to the Spanish store. Maybe someone was fooling with it, it is possible to change countries (though you can't make purchases in them). Or just blame it on one of those mysterious computer glitches. Either way, signing out and and back in will reset the devices connection to the Store.

Each of the iStores (iBooks, iTunes, etc) work exactly the same way. They are all independent logins and have no affect on each other.

Some app store software language issue is increase in some models actually the reason behind this that this model is made in which country the language is aromatically compare of this country and if you are using this app in other country then you have to face the language issue in this app
