App store error message downloading BBM to iPod touch

Has anybody seen this message?
It's my daughters iPod. Trying to get her BBM so she and I can chat when I'm away (I have BB...not always carryin my iPad around with me). I did have BBM on my previous iPhone 5S, but it doesn't appear in my purchased apps (at least as far as I can see...a search function or ability to re-order the list would be wonderful, Apple).
Any insight appreciated.

(To fill in the obvious blank in the original post....)
we have family sharing.
(Taking that info and add it to what was already there...)
so....cannot find BBM in my list of previously downloaded apps (it's a big list, which cannot be searched, thanks Apple) from my daughters iPod through family sharing.  Trying instead to re-download it (usually not an issue in anyway whatsoever), but get the message shown.
I assume this clarify's the situation?

  • I cannot download nor update apps through Apps Store, error message states that app cannot be downloaded, to try again later, this has been happening for the  last five days. Help!

    I cannot download nor update apps through Apps Store, error message states that app cannot be downloaded, to try again later, this has been happening for the  last five days. Help!
    It started when tryung to update Twitter. Now the problem is with every app I try to update or download.

    I have this issue as well. The App Store icon indicates there are updates available but when I open the app a popup says it can't connect to the store and the screen remains white. I have tried a hard reset (power & home button) and several other suggestions I have found throughout the forums here without success.

    - Try another cable. The cable for 5G iPod (lightning connector) seems to be more prone to failure than the older cable.

    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    - Try using the Search function to find it
    - Go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Screen Layout
    - Is it hidden by Restrictions>Settings>General>Restrictions?

  • Upgrading 10.6.8 to Mavericks App Store error message

    I have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and want to upgrade to Mavericks, but when I go to the App Store and hit Download, I get this error message, repeatedly; 'We could not complete your request. There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (4)'
    I have tried back over the last day or two with the same result. Anyone got any suggestions or an actual answer, please?

  • Mac app store error when downloading small apps

    The mac app store fails to download any app that is 1-7 mb in size. But it works fine with large app downloads

    You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
    Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store alert. For example, the App Store could prompt you to update "Angry Birds" or "Twitter," but the hacked app could be "Final Cut Pro." Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you must carry out a systematic search with Spotlight.
    1. Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
    kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    2. In the Finder, press command-F to open a search window, or select
              File ▹ Find
    from the menu bar. In the search window, select
              Search: This Mac
    from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu of search criteria, initially showing Kind. From that menu, select
              Other...
    A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select
              Raw Query
    as the criterion, then click OK or press return.
    Now there will be a text box to the right of the menu of search criteria. That's where you enter the raw search query. Click in that box and paste the text you copied earlier by pressing command-V.
    3. The search window will now show all the App Store products that are installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
    4. At least one of the apps in the Spotlight search results is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash, after quitting it if it's running. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
    5. Quit and relaunch the App Store. Test.
    If you find these instructions confusing, ask for an alternative method.

  • Mac app store error message failed download.

    When I try to download an app from the Mac App Store  I get an error message  "failed to download use the purchases page to try again".
    How do I fix this problem on OS Mavericks 10.9.4?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • App store error message "could not sign in" "an unknown error has occurred"

    has anyone else gotten this message when trying to sign into the app store:
    "could not sign in" "an unknown error has occurred"
    i know my password is correct, i signed in on my macbook and on my imac and no issue there.
    i called apple and they coulnd't figure out what it is, i reset my network settings and same thing. of course i can't do a restore because i'm at work and we don't have the new lighting cords here for me to hook up to my imac

    I experienced this problem, too -- and with the help of an Apple support rep, figured out a way out.
    Go into Settings and turn off automatic date and time, and set your phone back a year. Then go back and turn automating date and time back on, to get back to the present. Now go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores, click on your AppleID, and re-enter it and your password. Finally, go back to the App Store (or iTunes Store) and try to download what you had been trying before -- and if you're like me, it will now pop up with a new set of Terms and Conditions for you to approve. After you approve, you'll be able to download whatever you had been trying to.
    It appeared, in my case, that Apple needed to present me with a new Terms & Conditions to approve, but for some reason, iOS 6 and the Apple mother ship weren't communicating correctly about how to do that, and I was stuck with the "Could Not Sign In" message. Changing the iPhone's time and/or re-signing in via Settings > iTunes & App Stores resolved the roadblock for some reason. Hope this works for others as well!

  • App store error message - Item is being modified

    I can not download a couple of game apps. The error message says the items are being modified and I should try again later. Since these apps are free today only, I won't get the sale price if I download later.
    Whats going on at the app store?

    No one seems to have any answers so far, but you may want to watch/add to this thread:

  • App store error message on Macbook (2010)

    I'm trying to download an app from the App Store and receiving this error message: "We could not complete your request. There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (4)". I've tried clearing the caches in iTunes and that didn't help. This occured even after upgrading to Lion. The app I want to download is only available through the App Store.

  • App Store error message - Thai Store?!?

    When attempting to use the App Store I receive a message that the App I am attempting to download is not available from the Thai store - that I must switch to the US store. I have never switched to a Thai store. I first started getting this message while in Italy a week ago and it persists now that I've returned to the US.  I cannot locate settings options that might help me switch back to the US store (even though I didn't switch out to begin with). Help?

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Reboot and test.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
