Can't post review in Mac App Store

I wanted to add a review for Coda which I purchased before the Mac App Store started. The Mac App Store has detected that I have Coda installed but it won't allow me to write a review because I didn't purchase it through the store.
I don't want to purchase it again just to write a review.

Hi and welcome theq256...

why can I not access the Mac App store? I cannot enter the Mac App Store; for updates to featured Apps?

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.

Why can't I access the Mac App Store anymore?

I want to upgrade my Mac Pro but I can no longer access the Mac App Store and don't know why.

Remember that Rosetta is not supported beyond 10.6.8. This means that if you use any PowerPC Apps, they will refuse to work.
My top six are:
Microsoft Office, including Word, 2004 or older
Photoshop CS2 or older
Apple Works 6
FileMaker Pro 6
Eudora 6
Quicken 2007 (unless you purchase and install the "Loin Compatible" update)

HT4718 How come I can't download anything from mac app store?

How come I can't download anything from mac app store?
I've tried everything it all started when my apple app store icon in the doc disappeared.
It will not go to the Mac App Store
I have a MacBook Pro 2010 intel
os mac mountain lion 10.8.6 however I do not have the original copy that was downloaded from the app store when I bought it.
I NEED TO DO A CLEAN INSTALL TO GET MY APP STORE ICON BACK
Please if anyone can help apple doesn't seem to care?

If you need to reinstall Mac OS X 10.8.x (there is no 10.8.6 yet, by the way), restart your Mac, hold down the Option key so you see all the bootable partitons, and boot to the Recovery Partition. From there you can reinstall Mountain Lion. You will need a good Internet connection.

Can't sign in to Mac app store with known-good ID

I can't sign into the Mac app store from my mini. Everything else works fine (iTunes store, icloud.com) and I can log in to the Mac app store (and everything else too) on my Air. So, it's just the Mac app store and just from my Mac mini.
I rebooted. I deleted the "storeagent" preferences file. I reset the password (to the same one). Still won't work. It just says "unknown error."

just the Mac app store and just from my Mac mini.
Try deleting the cache associated with the App Store.
Open a Finder window. From the menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type of copy paste the following:
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/Cache.db
Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Restart your Mac then try the App Store.

Can't Write a Review On Mac App Store

I purchased an application on the Mac App Store and I would like to write a review but it won't let me saying that "To review this app, you must have purchased it from the Mac App Store". I did purchase my app from the Mac App Store. Has anyone else had this happen or know how to get it working?
Thanks,
Rob

Thanks for your reply.
I do it on my iPod. In the App Store's description of the app, at the bottom just below the screenshots, I tap the button that states the number of reviews currently posted as to go read them, then I tap "Write a review". When I did it I was asked for my password, which I entered, then I was asked for a pseudonym, as none had yet been created. I provided the same as here (I want to use the same in both places), then I typed my message (number of stars, title, message), and tapped "Send".
Now, I have proof this has nothing to do with the app's manufacturer, as it's all handled and managed by Apple's App Store. I tried doing the same again today but for another app, the Convert Units for Free app, which I'd just downoaded. This is an app for which there are 4 reviews posted as of yesterday, and 2 as of today, for a total of 298! So this app does receive reviews, unlike the other one. So I tapped "Write a review", and, this time, I wasn't even asked for my password! The Pseudonym line didn't appear either. I wrote my review (chose a numer of stars, wrote a title, then the text), then tapped "Send". I wasn't asked for my password then either. Same **** result as yesterday! Now when I come back and tap "Write a review" again, it brings back what I wrote. Same result when I tap "Send" again.
So then, I went back to the iBig Ben Pro app, went into the reviews, and tapped "Write a review". My review for that app came back in the editor! Complete with my pseudonym on the Pseudonym line! I tapped "Send" again, and still the same result.
In between these two experiences, I tried tapping "Write a review" for an app I hadn't downloaded. It asked me for my password, as it did for the first app described here after I'd downloaded it. I didn't proceed further.
This is really odd, and I think I'll take the concern to the Apple Store in the mall across the street (I heard the guys there are eager to answer our questions). Not that I don't appreciate the answers I get here, quite the opposite, but I'd get to show an Apple person what happens before his eyes, which can't be done here.

How can I login to the Mac App Store?

My wife cannot login to the Mac App Store on her MacBook Pro. This first happened under Snow Leopard and is now happening under Lion. I have googled extensively for a solution, but not yet found one that lasts long term. We have binned a Networkinterfaces.plist a few times and this has given us temporary access to the App Store, but now it's lost it again and we can't even find the plist to bin it!
The error message we get when trying to login to the Mac App Store is, "your device or computer could not be verified".
Any help will be much appreciated.

Thanks for that suggestion. I'll remember it for next time. We seem to have got temporary reprieve, which we think might be due to resolving a conflict between iCal and MobileMe.

How can I download lion from Mac app store in recovery mode on an imac?

I bought a mid-2007 imac from a friend, who the computer was working perfectly for. When I went to start up it wouldn't start up (past the gray screen) from the regular HD no matter how many tricks I tried (resetting SMC, PRAM, etc), so I went in to recovery mode. I verified and repaired the disc more than once (even though it said it was fine), and tried to reinstall lion from the online recovery function but it said "item temporarily unavailable." I basically tried every combo of things possible before erasing the HD but nothing worked, so then I decided to erase the HD.
SO that happened, and now I can still boot up in recovery mode and it -seems- like if I can find a way to reinstall lion (which was the last os running), I may be back in business.
however, see the problem with "item temporarily unavailable."
I decided to purchase it from the Mac store online on a different device and it says it will email me a link in 1-3 business days (really??! That long to save me with an EMAIL LINK???), and my thought is that maybe I can log in to my email from the safari window and download it that way. I'm just afraid that I won't be able to access the Mac app store if that is where it downloads from.
Ultimately, I'm trying to avoid a trip to the Apple Store because this thing will be a nightmare to lug on public transportation. My questions for you are as follows:
- how likely do you think it is that I'll be able to successfully download lion from the email link in recovery mode?
- Do actual discs with lion exist anywhere in the wide world? If so, how can I get one?
- would it be worth it to grab an old lion usb stick from amazon?
- is there ANY other way to reinstall lion or install a new os on this thing without physically taking the computer anywhere?

What a silly company , i have the same exact problem with my macbook pro and i've checked every topic that mention this problem and they didn't solve it .

Can't update iPhoto in Mac App store or Software update... Help!

I am stuck in iPhoto 9.1.5 Using Lion iPhoto purchased through mac app store. Please help me

Maybe it's just a bug, Mac App Store seems a Beta to me for how laggy and buggy it is. Usually when it says something about another account it's 'cause you have pirated software and the App Store receipt inside it is indeed connected to another account, making it impossible to download the update. If that's your case what you have to do is to right click on iPhoto and select "show package content", open the "Content" folder and delete the "_MASReceipt" folder inside it, now the update will show up on Software Update.
A user posted on another site a way to solve this.
It worked for me, hope it helps.

Can't download from the Mac app store

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone else is having this issue. Anytime I try to download an app free or paid from the mac app store it goes to my doc but it doesn't download it just sits there and says it's waiting. also when I have an update for an app I click on it and enter my apple id and pass to update and nothing happends. the store worked when I first got it and then one day it just stopped.
how can I fix this? Do i have to reinstall the app store? I am running the latest version of snow leopard on a core i7 macbook Pro (early 2010) I also checked my firewall settings and nothing is blocking it from working.
Thanks

Then I would first try trashing these files and folder;
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.storeagent.plist
~/Library/Preferences/ByHost

I can't download Pages from Mac App Store

I have been having some trouble in dowloading Page from Mac App Store.
I had dowloaded and used before, but recently I reinstalled the Mac OS.
When the download reachs amost 10MB, it restarts a few times and gives me the message: "Pages failed to download. Use the Purchases page to try again."
I tried both two following methods:
1 - open $TMPDIR/../C* and deleted com.apple.appstore
2 - Quit App Store.
Open Terminal.
Execute this: defaults write com.apple.appstore ShowDebugMenu -bool true
Launch App Store.
At the Menu bar, there should be a "Debug".
Click on that and press "Reset Application"
Restart App Store.
But none of them worked for me.
Can anyone help me?
Cheers.

Please test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved. Back up all data before making any changes.
Step 1
Rebuild the Spotlight index. If you try to search now from the magnifying-glass icon in the top right corner of the display, there will be an indication that indexing is in progress.
Step 2
Unlock the Network preference pane, if necessary, by clicking the lock icon in the lower left corner and entering your password. Cllck Advanced, open the DNS tab, and change the server addresses to the following:
8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4
That's Google DNS. Click OK, then Apply.

How I can change my country in Mac App Store when I have a $0.66 that I can't spend it on anything

How can I get credit in Mac App Store for software installed from CD?

So I have purchased iLife '11 and iWork '09 disks. I have had them installed on my MacBook Pro since 2010. The Mac App Store has happily been updating the all the apps for as long as I can remember. However, the MAS doesn't recognize the iLife and iWork apps as INSTALLED. I tried a "fix" to drop a MAS receipt into the individual app's Packages, and it did change the MAS to show them as INSTALLED. However, to test whether the MAS really saw them as something I had purchased and could then reinstall, I deleted the Numbers app.
Now the MAS shows me needing to spend the $20 to get Numbers back. I know I could just dig out the DVD and install it again.
I am thinking of wiping my MBP drive and doing a clean install of Mountain Lion and am just trying to make sure I don't have to buy apps again, and am trying to get around re-installing from original DVDs and going through major time upgrading them through the MAS.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
You cannot get the MAS to recognize the iLife or iWork apps installed from disc and update them. These are two different versions of the apps. Falsifying the disc versions with copies of MAS receipts from other apps will not accomplish this, as it cannot be done. The apps from disc are updated through Software Update until they are at the end of their road. At that point you would need to purchase paid upgrades through the MAS.
