Unable to download apps due to error message

I've downloaded and installed apps plenty of times but all of a sudden, the app store started to give me the error:
     "We could not complete your purchase. The product distribution file could not be verified. It may be damaged or was not signed."
It first came up when I tried to install an update so I trashed the app and tried to reinstall but got the same message. I then tried to download other apps to see what would happen and the same message appears everytime. How do I fix this issue?

Some people have reported that they've had to go through extremes to install Virus Barrier to get this to work.
Let's try creating a NEW USER ACOUNT on your system, and try to download through the MAS from that fresh clean account.

    Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, there is a blank app icon on the home screen. It looks like you have already done some troubleshooting. I would recommend that you read these articles, they may be helpful in troubleshooting your issue.

  • When syncing downloaded apps, I receive error message:

    I am receiving an error message when trying to download 2 apps: Red Laser & Navigon Mobile Navigator. I have actually had these apps on my 3G phone for a while, but the last time I tried to download the updates, I keep getting an error message that part of the app is corrupted & to download it from the app store. I try to do that & I still get the same error message. I tried to just uninstall both of the apps, but iTunes tries to then re-install the apps onto my phone. I really don't care now if I have the apps or not. I either want to have them install correctly, or to remove them from my phone & computer for good.
    Please assist. Thanks so much.
    Christine

    1st. Turn off your phone and back on.
    if that does not work, do a reset by holding the on/off button and the home button until the Apple logo comes on.

  • Why would I repeatedly receive an "unable to download at this time " error message when memory and signal do not seem to be a problem?

    Why would I repeatedly receive a download error message when memory is sufficient?

    Uh, maybe it's a server problem, and unrelated to you or your device?

  • Unable to 'Repair Disk' due to Error message

    Routine check on the state of my HHD using Disk Utility - Permissions chks all ran fine and good, but not completing the Verify Disk process. The log file (below) was generated:
    _Verifying volume “Macintosh HD”_
    Checking HFS Plus volume.
    Checking Extents Overflow file.
    Checking Catalog file.
    Checking multi-linked files.
    Checking Catalog hierarchy.
    Checking Extended Attributes file.
    *Incorrect number of Extended Attributes*
    Checking volume bitmap.
    Checking volume information.
    *The volume Macintosh HD needs to be repaired.*
    *Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit*
    1 HFS volume checked
    *Volume needs repair*
    unable to Repair Disk unless the full Verify Disk process has finished, is there an easy fix option, or does it signify a bigger problem?

    Were you booted up from your install disk when you ran Disk Utility? If not, you'll need to try that and see if the disk can be repaired. If it can't, and you don't have a recent clone that is not damaged to replace the contents of the startup disk with, then Disk Warrior is the best option.

  • Unable To download apps due to --Please Close FlashLightSIMBLAgent--

    So I have tried downloading Illustrator and Photoshop (Latest versions from Creative Cloud) and each time it asks me to Please Close FlashLightSIMBLAgent. I have tried force quitting it via activity monitor but that has not worked. What should I do.
    PS> I am running OS X 10.10.1
    Thanks

    It's related to running the Flashlight set of plugins for Spotlight.
    The following steps will let you install Creative Cloud Apps:
    Run the Flashlight app
    From the main menu of Flashlight, uncheck "Enable Flashlight" (this quits the FlashlightSIMBLAgent helper program)
    Quit the Flashlight app
    Install CC apps
    Re-run the Flashlight app to re-enable Flashlight

  • I am not able to download Flash Player--- the error message is Internet Explorer should be closed

    I am unable to download Flash Player ===== the error message says that Internet Explorer should be closed----  how would I get to Adobe.com if Internet Explorer is not open?

    You download the installer (http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe) and save it to disk, then close all Internet Explorer windows and run the downloaded installer.

  • Hi I am having problems downloading and updating apps on my iPad and iPhone. The message cycles between waiting and loading then I get an error message saying unable to download app. Eventually,after many attempts it works.

    Hi Guys - for a few days I have been having problems downloading and updating apps on my iPad and iPhone. The message cycles between waiting and downloading then eventually says unable to download app. Sometimes after many attempts it wil eventually work. I tested it on an old iPhone 3G and got the same problem so it is not an iOS 5 issue. My WI-FI connection is working fine. I was wondering if this is an App Store problem? Anyone else in the UK having this problem?

    Hi John
    iTunes Support wasn't of any use to me.
    I have also been having another problem - with BBC iPlayer and other video streaming not working due to insufficient bandwidth, despite my overall download speed being consistently around 50Gb.  This is also affecting AppleTV downloads
    I am using Virgin Media as my ISP, and was wondering whether you do as well.  This might be the common thread.
