I'm trying to pay for something and I was adding my USA address to my account and it's not letting me. It says that the postal code is invalid and must be 6 digits (postal codes for USA are only 5 digits) I think it's because my account is set to Ecuador but since i can't change that i don't know.

Paypal is country specific so if you move countries you have to open another paypal account in the country you reside in and add an address / phone number / bank accounts / cards from within that country.
You should really withdraw any funds / resolve issues / remove cards and bank accounts / cancel any subscriptions and close the old Paypal account before you move countries. If you don't then you may have problems doing so once you have moved and may need to contact customer services for help to resolve things.
You can however add a U.S bank account (not card) to 'most' other countries paypal accounts. This is because paypal is a U.S company and so allows this.
