Delete the App Store app by dragging it and dropping it into the Trash.  Then download and install the appropriate update combo for your version of OS X;
Install new MAS app -
OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.3 update combo

  • I have an ipod touch second gen, how can i download the facebook app if it says its not compatable with my current iOS?

    i have an ipod touch second gen, how can i download the facebook app if it says its not compatable with my current iOS?
    i had the facebook app but i could never upgrade it and i was ok with using the outdated version but when i reset the ipod so i could gift it to a friend it obviously got rid of the app and now i cant downloaded because it says its not compatable, how can i download the version i had before i reset it?

    Your only way is if you have the version that was compatible on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case delete the current version that is in your iTunes App library and replace it with the older version. Then sync.

    I tried and noticed that i am not able to download the Facebook app to my iPhone 2G with OS 3.1.3. Tell me the resolution for the same.

    Apple or iPhone do not make the facebook app, but facebook does. They choose, who and what they support. You can feed back to them from iTunesStore, by seaching for the app and then clicking Support.

  • My iphoto icon has disappeared from my dock and applications folder. Please HELP

    I tried clicking on the iphoto icon in the dock and nothing happened. I went looking for it in the applications folder and it wasn't there. I then moved the icon from the dock on to the desktop and it poof'd into thin air! GONE. What can I do? Please help! VERY upset.

    reinstall iPhoto from the restore disks that came with your computer -
    reinstall iPhoto - go to your receipts folder ("Your hard drive" ==> library ==> receipts) and remove any iPhoto receipts and reinstall from the restore disks that came with your computer - do a custom install of bundled software only

  • How can I download the iTunes App if it was accidentally deleted from homepage.

    The iTunes app (which comes with the iPad)  was accidentally deleted from home screen, I can't connect to iTunes store..how can I recover/ download app again?

    Not possible to delete any of the apps included with the OS/firmware.
    Do you have Restrictions enabled at Settings > General > Restrictions?
    If so, is iTunes turned on as a Restriction?
    If yes, this will remove the app from being available to use but doesn't delete the app.

  • How can How can I download the Podcasts app to my ipod touch

    I have a iPod Touch with iOS 6.1.3.  The podcast app was not working so I deleted it.  I tried to download/reinstall from iTunes on my PC but it gives an error saying it "requires a newer version of iPod software" (odd since the app was on the device before with the same iOS version).  I also tried going to the iTunes on the device but can't find the app there to down it and the iTunes app keeps crashing.
    Is there a version of the Podcast app that works on an iPod Touch?  If so, how can I get it downloaded?

    I am having the same issue and it is very aggravating. The only thing I use my Itouch for is podcast and now it is useless, so frustrated at the moment.

  • App store has dissappeared from my dock

    Mac app store has disappeared from my dock.  It's still in Launchpad.  I can't figure out how to reinstall it.  Running lion 10.7.1. downloaded it again 10.7.1 again, but it didn't help.
    Any suggestions?

    The Mac App Store app is located in the Applications folder. Open a Finder window and browse to the Applications folder and then drag & drop the MAS icon anywhere you choose on the Dock.

    Open the Mac App Store on the other Mac and in the Quick Links sign into your account. See if the Mountain Lion purchase is among hidden apps in the iCloud area of your account info.

  • How can I get the iBook app on my Mac to backup ePubs I created with Pages on my iPad? Only seems to want to work with purchased from the ibook store.

    How can I get the iBook app on my Mac to backup ePubs I created with Pages on my iPad? Only seems to want to work with purchased books from the ibook store. The problem is, once I create a document in Pages and turn it into an ePub to be opened in iBooks, I delete the document in Pages, because I don't need two copies taking up space on my iPad. Before Maverick, iTunes would backup everything in my iBook app on my iPad. If something ever happened to my iPad, all of my created ePubs would be lost and I would be screwed. I suppose I could keep everything on Pages and go to iCloud and download my documents to my Mac, but that is a lot of steps. I may have to do that if there is no other way, but I am hoping someone will have the answer for me. Pretty disappointed in iBooks app for Mac at this point.

    iBooks only syncs purchased books. Others must be synced in iTunes.
