HT4461 how to download non-Apple store apps on iMac 10.8

How to download non-Apple store apps on iMac 10.8. I want to transfer photos from a Samsung Galaxy S4 to the iMac.

If your Mac is not allowing you to download 3rd party apps that are from a source other than the Mac App Store, it is likely the security setting in System Preferences. Go to Sys Prefs/Security & Privacy/General and set the download options best for you. You will likely find the download options grayed out. You will need to click the padlock below and supply your admin password to unlock the preference pane.

  • Why or how can I download the Apple Store App for my windows 8 mobil phone

    I want to download the app for apple store to my windows phone, I find it really  confusing that my computer which supports windows 7 home premium can download apple store app and my phone with the newer windows software cannot,  why and it not why not make sure that it is known before people upgrade or change to the newer phone

    You can't. The Apple Store app is for iOS devices and is not available for Windows Phone, nor can any other iOS app run on your Windows Phone. You'll have to use whatever web browser your phone provides if you want to shop the Apple Store.  And no, there is no Apple Store app for Windows on a computer either. Perhaps you're thinking of iTunes and the iTunes Store?
    Regards.

  • Need to download the Apple Store App to my IMAC

    I must have deleted the Apple App Store from my early 2009 mac running Mac OS X 10.6.8.  The help I got from the online mac guy was to get a good backup and reinstall all my orginial discs which should then put the Apple App Store back on my computer.  After reinstalling all programs including Snow Leopard and doing all upgrades I am to run a migration assistant to recover my lost data as this will completely wipe out my computer and I will be reinstalling all pics docs and the last 5 years of stuff on my apple Mac.   This seems extreme.  I hope someone knows what I can do to get this one program reloaded on my mac.  I was hoping to upgrade to the new Mountain Lion but I cannot do the download without the Apple App Store application loaded on the computer. 

    Try downloading and reinstalling the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1  updater. It just may reinstall App Store for you.

  • Using the Apple store App

    I downloaded the Apple store App but can't find the product scanning function. Do I have to be in the store for this to be enabled?

    If you are referring to the Apple Store app from Apple for iOS devices, then you are posting in the wrong ASC forum, this is the Mac App Store forum for Mac apps for Mac computers.
    In the articles that I have read about the new Apple Store app it mentions the in store scanning and purchasing as being for the iPhone 4 and 4S. I have not seen other iOS devices mentioned.

    How do I and where do I download the mac store app to my desktop?

    FYI .. Snow Leopard is no longer available from the Apple online store but you can purchase Snow Leopard by calling Apple >  1-800-APL-CARE (1-800-275-2273)
    Before purchasing, make sure your Mac meets Snow Leopard's requirements.

  • HT5858 how do i download the apple store icon to my i phone 4s

    Somehow, I deleted the Apple Store app from my iPhone 4s and don't know how to download it back to my phone. How do you retrieve this app again?

    The App Store icon cannot be removed. It can be moved to another screen or restricted. Look on other screens, try a search for it, as a last resort, go to settings, reset, reset home screen layout.

  • How do you remove credit card info from apple store app on ipad?

    Is there a way to remove my credit card info on the apple store app on iOS? There is no option for none. I don't mean from iTunes I have a gift card on file in iTunes.

    Do you mean the App store? Both iTunes and the App store use what ever is set up on your appleID, be it credit card or iTunes card. Its the same account.

    How to use Apple Store app to purchase an item in 'Favorites'?

    You can't delete the App Store app on the iPod. You can only hide it via Restrictions (Settings>General>Restrictions).
    If not hidden by restrictions, have you used the SpotLight search to try to find it?
    Last
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:

    I purchased NBA League Pass, but I don't know how to download the Game Time app on my Apple TV. What is a Login ID? 
    Is that the same as my email adress or my password, or my account name or my screen name?

    You will need both License Keys the Lightroom 4 upgrade key and the Lightroom 3 key. You can download the latest LR 4.4.1 from the site below. Just make sure you get the appropriate one for your operating system.

    Install then you first enter the LR 4 upgrade serial number and then the LR 3 serial number when prompted.

  • HT4009 Is it safe to make in app puchases in a game downloaded from apple store (a game named "lawless" per example) or my card may be hacked???

    You can try the 'report a problem' link to contact iTunes Support and see if they will refund or credit you : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
    To try and stop it happening again you can use Settings > General > Restrictions on the device to prevent in-app purchases being made, and you might (depending upon its iOS version) also have a 'Require Password' option on the Restrictions screen that you can set to 'Immediately' so that your account's password has to be entered for each download from the store.

    What apple store App would be used to read email on the mac that was downloaded to a thumb drive from windows outlook.
    Recently purchased a Mac and data transfer for e-mails only showed the email preview but does not open up the body of the email or attachments.  So I down loaded my inbox, and folders to a thumb drive.  this will open correctly on the window pc but the mac is looking for the approriate app to read this data.

  • How put apple store apps on the iPad screen with others like internet , face time all etc how?

    How put apps on screen with another's like internet , face time have already in screen . Now want apple store apps on screen how?

    If you tap and hold down on an app icon it will begin to wiggle. While it wiggles, you can drag it over to the edge of the screen and hold it about half way over on the screen for a second or two and it will jump to the next screen. You can drag one app on top of another app to create a folder if you care to do so.
    When you are done, tap the home button and the apps will stop wiggling.
