Why i cannot open mac app store, preview, calendar, software update, etc after upgrading to mavericks? How can i fix this? please help me

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

After upgrading to OS 10.8, my Mac App Store is not working. It says: Cannot Connect To The App Store

After upgrading to OS 10.8, my Mac App Store is not working. It says: Cannot Connect To The App Store. Kindly Help

Also having that problem - I checked and I am connected to internet (can access other websites or other pages in Apple's website), can login from Snow Leopard (10.6.8) with Mac App Store there, but if I use the (external) drive with ML to start up, no go.
I can get to the "Featured"/initial MAS page, and tried going to the login from there, but same problem as Mitoshacer.
In my case, MacBook Pro (2.66GHz, 8GB RAM, 500GB external with ML - vs. 320GB internal drive with 10.6.8), March/April 2009 model. Have done searches for the problem online, but nothing shows up (except some for older OS X versions).

Cannot open Mac App Store

Using my Macbook Air running Yosemite 10.10.1, i downloaded the 10.10.2 update. I shut the system down last night due to a low battery. In the course of the shutdown it asked me if I wanted to install the update, I chose not to install 10.10.2 due to the low battery. I restarted my Air today. I tried to open App store so I could install the update but the App store hangs and stops responding and I have to force quit App Store. I have rebooted the system multiple times, both hard and soft reboot, and cannot get App Store to open. Does anyone have any hints?

I have just upgraded to Maverick, I cannot open vectorworks 2011 now. please help..

I have just upgraded to Maverick, I cannot open vectorworks 2011 now. please help..

The way I resolved this issue was to create a dual boot Mac, so that I am able to boot from either Mountain Lion or Mavericks. Running Vectorworks in a virtual machine just didn’t cut it.
I had already upgraded to Mavericks, which meant that trying to install OS 10.8.5 as a second operating system produced the error message saying it cannot be installed on this computer.
First, if you need a copy of Mountain Lion installer and you has previously purchased it, open the App Store app, press the option key and then click on the purchases tab. You will see a list of all downloaded software from Apple and you can download OS 10.8.5 again without paying for it a second time. If you had previously created a boot disk of Mountain Lion, which I had not, you can obviously skip this step and the next.
You will need a boot disk for Mountain Lion. After downloading the Mountain Lion installer, the easiest way to create a boot disk is to use a slick little app called DiskMaker X, which you can get here: http://liondiskmaker.com Next you will need a USB flash drive of at least 8GB in size. Install and run DiskMaker X, plug in your flash drive, and follow the prompts. In just a few clicks, your boot drive will be easily created.
Next, you will need to add a partition on your startup drive on which you will install Mountain Lion. Here is the procedure for creating the new partition: http://macs.about.com/od/applications/ss/diskutilitysize.htm You can find this at Apple support, but this site gives you additional procedures that may be helpful. I set my new partition at 50 GB, but you can do with less is you don’t have the space.
With those two operations done, and your OS 10.8.5 boot drive plugged in, restart you Mac and press the option key after you hear the chime. You will be asked which drive you wish to start from- select the boot drive. After your Mac boots up, you will see several options- choose install Mountain Lion (actually I think the option is reinstall Mountain Lion).
After completing the OS install, install your copy of Vectorworks, copy and move whatever files you need to from Mavericks, and you are in business. To boot from either OS, simply press the option key and select OS 10.8.5 when you need to work in Vectorkorks, or OS 10.9 for all your other tasks. Switching back and forth isn’t as advantageous as otherwise, but it is the best way to run Vectorworks without upgrading for the $1,500 or so that would be required otherwise.

You don't need to go to the App Store to for support for Steam and Minecraft. You need to go to their website(s).

Actually, it doesn't. Following its developer's instructions leaves an active User Launch Agent com.macpaw.CleanMyMac2Helper.diskSpaceWatcher.plist.
/private/var/run/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac2.Agent.socket also remains.
~/Library/Application Support/CleanMyMac 2/CleanMyMac 2 Helper.app is not deleted either, nor is app.com.macpaw.CleanMyMac2.playlist, nor a cache file in com.plausiblelabs.crashreporter.data - which is probably harmless.
Only its developer can know what the above files do. There may be others that I did not find. The reason their programmers chose to leave them behind is known only to them.
The following illustrates the contents of diskSpaceWatcher.plist and /private/var/run after following its uninstallation instructions and subsequently rebooting:

I just had a question regarding the OS X Recovery, does that uninstall all my files as well?
No. Reinstalling OS X leaves all your files intact. Unfortunately it also leaves system modifications such as those installed by CleanMyMac intact as well. Eradicating them is up to you.

Can't open mac app store

hello, i want to upgrade to Lion OS from X 10.6.8 but to do that i need to use mac app store, the mac app store is not opening with me, i tried many ways to un install iTunes and re install it, but still not working. !! any advise

Install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo
Restart your Mac.
FYI... you can access the Mac App Store either from your Apple menu icon (top left in your screen) then click App Store, or your Applications folder, or your Dock.
The combo should reinstall the App Store for you.

Problems with opening Mac App Store

Ok, here is my problem. I installed Snow Leopard on my iMac and updated my OS software which is now version 10.6.8 so that I could have the Mac App Store with a view to upgrading to OS Lion. However when I went to hit on the Mac App Store icon, it tells me that "you can't use this version of the application App Store with this version of Mac OS X." It goes onto say... "You have Mac OS X 10.6.8. The application requires Mac OS X 10.7 or later."
Does anyone have any solutions to this problem, I want to upgrade to Lion (I have it on my MacBook Pro) but can't do it without the App Store (unless I pay for the key fob version which I don't want to do.

Install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo
Then restart your Mac.
It's ok to install the combo even though you are already running v10.6.8.
Make sure your Mac meets Lion's Apple - OS X Lion - Requirements
Informative articles to read before upgrading to Lion:

HT4061 Why I cannot open the apps store?...when I click on App Store I am getting a large empty square

Why can I not open the Apps Store as usual?

Close the App Store and reboot the iPad. Assuming you are running iOS 7 ....
Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the App Store app and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

After upgrading to Mavericks I cannot update iPhoto and iMovie. Why?

Just got my first Mac, an iMac. I upgraded to Maverick and once done I find there are updates available for iPhoto and iMovie. First I have tried to register "accept" the two apps. Nothing happens. Then I try to update them and get the answer that these apps was installed with another Apple ID. The thing is that I don't have any other Apple ID and noone else has touched my iMac. I have tried to reinstall Maverick three times now but end up with the same result. Anyone who has any clue or have experienced the same problem?

Open System Preferences > Users & Groups then select the Password tab.
Make sure you see the correct Apple ID.
If not, click Change.
Make sure you are logged into your admin account before updating apps.
Reinstalling Mavericks requires using OS X Recovery but there's no reason to reinstall Mavericks just to update your apps.
