HT5290 When I try to update software such as pages, etc. this error message comes up: There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (20)
When trying to download updates for Pages etc, I get this error message: There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (20)
Hello almauck,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing when trying to update Pages on my iMac.
I recommend signing out of the App Store and signing back in and then trying the update again:
Sign out
Choose Store > Sign Out.
Sign in using an Apple ID
Choose Store > Sign In, or click Sign In in the Quick Links section. The Quick Links section is located in the right part of the window shown when you click Featured, Top Charts, or Categories in the toolbar.
Enter your Apple ID and password, and then click Sign In.
Mac App Store: Sign in and out

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Any possible solutions on how to fix this issue?
Sometimes there are just server problems with the App Store. Only thing that I can offer is to wait a day or so and try again and, if still no luck, contact the App Store support folks - http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/.
Good luck,

Hi guys,
Can't really figure it out. I have a single apple id on my iMac. My appstore is always asking for an update for Angry Birds, but when I click to update it asks for some other apple id. I never used any other apple id here.
How can I get rid off Angry Birds on my iMac? Can I delete is somewhere (its not in apps folder)? Because if I am trying to buy it for my current apple id it fails saying Uknown Errorthis does not work, i have been trying now for about 2 weeks, i think its time apple got onto this error and did something about it

There was an error in the app-store. Please try again. ???
I have 2 updates waiting, but when I click "update all" and log in, I get a message that there was an error in the app store. please try again (13). This has been going on for weeks now. I can log in to the app store and check my account details without problem. Any idea what is wrong.?
Just found another post with the same problem and this suggested fix:
"Follow the paths and move the files in bold print to the Trash.
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/Cache.db
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist
~/Library/Cookies/com.apple.appstore.plist
/Library/Preferences/System Configuration/Network.interfaces.plist"
Only problem is.. I don't have the first three and removing the last had no effect.
One additional detali. This Mac was created by migrating the system from my a previous Mac. Significant?
Oh, and the system info in my profile tag was not updated. this is on a 2011 MacMini Intel Core i7, and OSX 10.7.4. -
i am trying to update to osx lion but keep getting "there was an error in the app store. please try again later. (4)" when i click buy and type my password in.
Ok..
Installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo may help this.
Restart your Mac after installing the combo then try downloading Lion.
It's ok to install the combo even though you are already running v10.6.8
BEFORE you do this make sure your Mac meets Lion's requirements:
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of memory
OSX v10.6.6 or later (V10.6.8 recommended)
7GB of available spare
From here > Apple - OS X Lion - Technical specifications
Read this article before upgrading to Lion > Lion upgrade questions: Apple Support Communities
And here > What applications are not compatible with Mac OS X 10.7 "Lion"? What upgrade or substitute options are available for common incompatible applications? @ EveryMac.com -
I have this problem with the APP store. There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (null) Any idea as to how to fix this?
Does this happen when you try to update?
These guys have a cool solution that has helped with that error when you can't update an app: http://support.iawriter.com/help/kb/mac-questions/the-app-store-fails-with-there -was-an-error-in-the-app-store-please-try-again-later-null
NOTE: the instructions are specifically for their app but the solution has also worked for other apps too. They are, however, more advanced steps so proceed with caution. -
When I tried to buy ankimobile for my iPad, I got a message that my account was not accepted in the Australian store, and to transfer to the U.S. store. I don't know how I got to the Australian store and I tried but can't figure out how to get back so I can buy the ankimobile. I have never gotten this message before and never even knew there was more than one store. Is the ankimobile an Australian app? What should I do?

I've been trying to install recent updates for numbers, pages, and keynote, I get a message that says "There was an error in the App store. Please try again later." (20). I tried several times over the last few days and continue to get the same error message.
KatThank you Catherine & MrToaster - Yes - I've just updated to my new credit card. All the details were correct, inc authorisation code but App Store kept prompting me to update iMovie then, not allowing me to (There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (20)).
Your advice worked - I logged out and in again.
The problem is that I'll definitely have forgotten your tip when my card next expires! -
I keep getting this error message when updating imovie "There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (20). Does anyone know how to fix?
If you're having problems with the App Store you might try this:
1 - enable the Debug menu in App Store:
open the Terminal application.
copy the command below and paste into the Terminal window:
defaults write com.apple.appstore ShowDebugMenu -bool true
followed by Enter.
launch App Store, login.
2 - select the Debug ➙ Reset Application option:
3 - try again.

When I try to update an app in the App Store i get a message "There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (13)" I have tried many many times and keep getting the same message. How do I resolve?
First take the steps recommended in this support article. If there's no change, continue as follows.
Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Cookies/com.apple.appstore.cookies
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. Quit the application if it's running. Move the selected item to the Trash. Relaunch the application 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 and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return. -
