10.6.8 Issues In The AppStore

Every app that I try to download in the AppStore now says that I must have 10.8 or higher. Glitch or do I really have to upgrade operating systems?

No, and why are you using AppStore software?
You know it's all rigged to recent OS X versions and forces you to slow down your machine and deny your older PPC software upgrading to 10.8+
There is Macupdate.com which is a excellent source of software outside of AppStore and many of it's not copy protected.
Also there is a free version of CS2 here

And LibreOffice and Firefox all support 10.6 Snow Leopard.
Make bootable clones and you can restore your entire machine.

    If it is longer available then you can't get the app on your phone.

  • In the appstore where to buy software , called input on safety issues always pop !

  • I had an App on MacBook Air which would cause my computer to be locked. I delted it and reinstalled the App again from the AppStore. Now I am being charged again for the same App. How can I correct this issue and get refund for the double billing?

    You can't gift it, gifting can only be done from within the store, not from within your library.
    Puchases are considered final but 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

  • Got a new IPAD and was charged 200.00 for all apps previsouly purchased!.  Has anyone else had this issue?  I went thru the appstore and clicked on already purcahed apps and "installed" them on my new IPAD and got about 50 charges all at once from ITUNEs

    After setting up my new IPAD2 I went into the APPStore and noticed there was an already purchased section, which showed all my previous purchases I had made and installed on my IPAD I.  IT gave me the option to "install" them onto my IPAD2 and there was not visual "COST" associated with it and it never prompted me for a charge althought I had to enter my account password each time.  Additionally I didn't get any emails like you usually do when buying an app.  A few days later, BAM! 50 charges or so totalling upwards to 200 bucks with no description other than ITUNES on my bank account so I can't even tell which apps they were for.  Is part of the public BETA cloud testing?!  I hope to god not, it caused my bank account to go negative and now I have many NSF charges.  I can NOT affort this.  I know apple has a disclaimer "No refunds" under any circumstance.  But as far as I"m concerned.  THIS IS THEFT!
    Please note the IPAD os version is 4.3.3 (8J2) which isn't a drop down option for my OS below... Figures.

    More update on y situation. Now on both the IPAD and IPAD2 I can not got to view my purchase History, it says it can not connect to the ITUNES store, but yet I can still d/l apps and can view my account etc etc etc.

  • When ever I browse a news or cricbuzz app on my iphone5 it automatically brings up the jelly splash on the AppStore within 5 to 10 sec every time. Please could some one suggest of this is a virus or a bug. It is annoying.

    When ever I browse a news or cricbuzz app on my iphone5 it automatically brings up the jelly splash on the AppStore within 5 to 10 sec every time. Please could some one suggest if this is a virus or a bug. It is annoying and does not allow me to browse anything on the net.

    This is not due to malware. There is no known malware capable of infecting any iOS device, unless that device has been jailbroken.
    I have seen one other report this morning of a similar issue. This could simply be due to a rogue ad on those sites. However, if it's happening on a number of other sites as well, you may be having some problems with your network. As an example of the sort of thing I'm talking about, see:
    Brazilian internet service provider hacked
    Although the following page is written for Mac users, and thus some of its advice is not appropriate for the iPhone, you can still find some good information on such problems here:

  • How do I change the appstore back to my country in OS6?

    I updated my new iPad while out of my home country to OS6. My iPad now wants to go to the Appstore in the country I am visiting and I cannot change it back. All posts on other sites reference a place to do that in the Settings, but that option does not exist (or is not apparent) in OS 6. Can anyone help?

    Hi, sd7382.
    You may find this article helpful in regard to your font issue.  I would recommend updating to the most current version of iTunes as it can correct this issue.

  • How to deal with "criminals" in the appstore?

    I have discovered a developer, Brian Hall, the creator of games such as Elven Knight, Pegasus Flight, Temple Run and many more games, that i beIieve can be marked as a criminal. His games are totally worthless, they are all exactly the same except for the graphics, and the screenshots and the descriptive text are absolutely misleading. It is obvious that this Brian Hall is trying to cheat appstore users in buying one or more (depending your taste for e.g fantasy, zombies, cute ponies etc) of his apps. Game play is absolutely worthless and in no way even remotely matches with what the description leads you to believe. Brian Hall obviously just wants to make quick money by cheating the appstore public with his worthless apps.
    I have bought one of his games and posted a review stating much the same as above, but i even suspect that negative reviews are somehow removed again, since I can no longer see it.
    In my opinion, people like Brian Hall and his apps should at least be BANNED from publishing in the appstore, if not actually persecuted for his close to criminal behaviour. Please advise to who or where i can address this issue properly, if anyone reading this knows how to....
    Thanks,

    I don't know if this will help, but if the app was from the Mac App Store you could try the 'Contact Support' link:
    http://www.apple.com/uk/support/mac/app-store/contact/
    If it's from the iTunes App Store:
    http://www.apple.com/uk/support/itunes/
    (These are the UK links, which may not be the stores you need - I think you can just change the 'uk' in the link to the recognised international abbreviation for the store you want to contact).

  • The latest versions of iWork are not installing from the AppStore

    I have a new iMac with the bundled copies of Pages 5.0, Keynote 6.0 and Numbers 3.0
    The AppStore showed Updates so I updated these and AppStore now things I have Pages 5.1, Numbers 3.1 and Keynote 6.1 installed.
    However the versions in my Applications folder stubbornly remain the old versions.  When I open the Apps they say "A new version is available" so I click on Update which takes me to the App Store which says the software is all up-to-date!
    How do I get the latest versions
    (Other apps seem to owrk OK - e..g latest update to iMovie worked fine)
    Thanks

    Pretty much the same - https://discussions.apple.com/message/24697344#24697344.
    Today, the App Store is again offering me updates to these iWork apps (for the 4th time, now) e.g. Pages 5.1. etc
    Although it said it had updated to 5.1 last time, the /Library/Receipts/InstallHistory.plist indicates that Apple downloaded 5.0.1 again! So of course when I opened it after updating, it was still 5.0.1.
    These forums seem to be quite angry still about these latest versions of iWork vs the previous '09 versions, see also this in the Pages forum https://discussions.apple.com/message/24701724#24701724. Not sure that there is much interest in getting 5.1 issues solved?
    Cheers

    I have a new MacBook Air 11'inch  and I presume that it should come with the iLife programs. However, when I signed into the appstore with my account I have used with all of my Mac products, it now said I had to purchase each program, like iPhoto, iMovie, ect. seperate. I have already logged in and out of my account and called the "free" part of tech support. How can I reslove this issue?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    If you really have a new MacBook, iPhoto, iMovie and GarageBand come with the Mac for free.
    As you see their price at the Mac App Store, it's clear that there's a problem with your MacBook. Simply return it if you purchased it less than 14 days ago and you will receive a new MacBook
