Any help would be appreciated.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Select
          /var/log ▹ install.log
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
          View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen. The contents of the log will appear on the right. Each log message begins with a timestamp. Select the messages from the time of the last installation or update attempt. If you're not sure when that was, click the Clear Display button in the toolbar of the Console window and then try the installation again. Select the new messages that appear. Copy the messages to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).

☞ Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
☞ Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. You may need to use a text editor with search and replace, such as TextEdit.

  • Error message when I try to download new iTunes as follows iPhoto 7.1.5 is already installed and was not purchased from the Mac App Store

    I am trying to download new version of iTunes from App store having purchased it on my laptop.  When I try to download on my iMac I get the following message:
    Error message when I try to download new iTunes as follows:  iPhoto 7.1.5 is already installed and was not purchased from the Mac App Store - and then I am asked if I want to buy it again. I don't understand the error message and I don't want to purchase the new version again.
    Also, since upgrading to Lion my videos (from Sanyo Xacti camera) do not play on iTunes. I can only open photos.
    Thank you.

    Make a back up of your Library. Now you can update without fear.

  • I get the message "Install Adobe Flash" can't be opened because it was not downloaded from the Mac App Store. This is the first time I have gotten the message. What do I need to do?

    Hi Sandra,
    you'll need to edit the security settings to install programs 'Mac App Store and identified developers'
    Open the Systems Preference and go to Security & Privacy.  There will be a section in the 'General' tab for 'Allow apps downloaded from:"  The default selection is 'Mac App Store'.  Change this setting to 'Mac App Store and identified developers".
    This screenshot is taken on OS X 10.10 (Yosemite), so it may look slightly different if you're on a different OS X version.

  • ""Install Adobe Flash Player.app" can't be opened because... not downloaded from the Mac App Store"

    I jsut upgraded to 10.9 and it is up to date and also my safari is up to date (no updates available for it). My safari is saying that my flash is out of date. when I follow the links it lets me download but when I double click to install it tell me "“Install Adobe Flash Player.app” can’t be opened because it was not downloaded from the Mac App Store.". When I install the flash UNinstaller and try to install that, it tells me the same. I ALSO found the exact same problem when I tried to install the acrobat installer (some tried to download a pdf and the page told me that my acrobat reader 'might' be out of date). Any thought?

    You're running up against the GateKeeper.
    Download the offline installer: Flash Player 12.0.0.44 (Mac OS X) by right clicking and choosing "Download Linked File As".
    Mount the DMG and when it opens, right click the installer and choose "Open".
    You'll see a warning. Click "Open" again.
    It will run from there.

    I live in China, have Dutch nationality, and no US address or Credit Card; how can I have access to products from the US iTunes store, in particular music, when such items are not available from the China iTunes store? In general, what are the differences between countries' iTunes offerings? Does one really need an address and a credit card for any country to be able to access that countries iTunes store? Why these restrictions?

    You cannot.
    You cannot use another countrys itunes store.
    You must be physically locates inside the borders of a country to use that countrys itunes store and a credit card issued in that country with a valid billing address in that country.
    The owners of the distribution rights of movies/music/etc differ by country.  These distributors decide who can sell their content in that country.
    Buy from another source if your countrys itunes store does not carry somehting that you want.

  • Why is the documentary series Bomb Patrol Afghanistan not available from the Australian iTunes store?

    Why is the documentary series Bomb Patrol Afghanistan not available from the Australian iTunes store?

    Because it is the producer's decision where they want their items to be available. You can request for it if you want to.

  • 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

  • HT1349 cannot get lion to download and install from the app store

    the lion os app took 2 days to down load then did not install from the app store.

    Do you mean the install button stays on install, or do you notice a loading bar under your Launchpad icon?
    This may help...

  • How do I download an app from the Mac App Store but not install it yet?

    How do I download an app from the Mac App Store but not install it yet?
    Can I simply download it and not install?
    What if the App gets updated before I download it?
    Why? Well, I am very busy and wish to install at my leisure even though I have purchased the App (required at a specific day in the month in order to appear on my business accounts).
    Thanks.

    There is a difference in what Kappy stated and what you stated. A major paid upgrade (v2.x to v3.0), yes, costs money, as it would in any other delivery stream. Updates (v3.0 to v3.1) to a a major version are free.
    Most apps sold through the Mac App Store (MAS) are the type that use the simple drag & drop installation. Those are downloaded directly to the designated apps folder and installation is done. Large pro-type apps download an installer to your Apps folder. Those you can install at your leisure. The MAS does not have a lot of apps using this type of installation.
    Be sure to always backup your MAS purchases, because there is no guarantee that the app will always be available for download in the future and it is your responsibility to archive copies.

  • How do I download an app from the Mac App Store but not install it and save to do later?

    I'm getting the free Lion download for new Macs from the Mac App Store, but am not ready to install it yet. It appears that apps (including Lion?) from the App Store automatically install themselves. Is there any way to save an App Store download (.dmg?) for later installation without having it automatically install? I asked Apple Support via chat, and they said it could be installed later but couldn't tell me how.

    The Lion download is different than small apps. What you get with Lion is an installer. But be sure to make an extra copy because after using the installer it deletes itself.

  • My Mid-2011 Macbook Air becomes extremely hot when installing apps from the Mac App Store and when deleting apps

    My Mid-2011 Macbook Air 13-inch (OSX 10.8.1 Mountain Lion) becomes hot to the touch when trying to delete large documents, watching videos after waking it from sleep-mode and when installing applications from the Mac App Store. This has also been happening with OSX Lion before I upgraded it to Mountain Lion.

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico my first language is Spanish. I do not speak English, however I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
    What needed to be done the day that you set up the new Mac was go into the Mac App Store (MAS), sign into your iTunes/MAS Apple ID, go to the Purchases pane and Accept the iLife apps that would have been there in a special section. That would have sent you Mac's unique identifier code to Apple's servers and verified that this Mac was eligible for the bundled iLife suite and then registered these apps into your MAS account.
    You might try going to  ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/adoption.plist, delete the adption plist, restart the Mac and then go to the Purchaes pane and see if you can Accept the apps into your account.

  • Trying to install new version of software from the Mac App Store

    My iMac is running OS X 10.6.8
    I purchase a copy of Swift Publisher 3.0.1 back in June of 2012.
    I paid $19.99 U.S.D for this upgrade, then.
    I just went to the Mac App Store to download a more recent version ( ver 3.5.5).
    It is not coming up in the Mac App Store as an Update and appears as if I will pay another $19.99.
    Is this what will happen? There is no indication on BeLight's web page about any update charges to any 3.x.x version of Swift Publiser,
    When I click the buy button, it looks as though I am going to be charged for this, again. Nothing appears as an indication that this is just an update.
    WHat will happen?

    I solved it.
    I, originally, download and installed the software under the Mac App Store when I was using OS X Mavericks.
    I was getting all sorts of error messages from the Mac App Store under Snow Leopard.
    I simply copied that version to my working OS X Snow Leopard disc and it is working fine, now.
    Thank goodness for having multiple backups on three drives!
    Whoo! Spent a good chunk of the day trying to figure this one out!

  • Just installing a few updates from the Mac App Store for mountain lion on my 2010 MacBook Pro, during this it made a noise and then the screen and keyboard went off, like it is off. What happened, is it off...or should I just wait it out?

    What kind of noise?
    The only things I can think of that make noise are fans and disks. Fans usually will not cause the computer to shutdown as you describe. My guess is your disk drive died. I hope you made a backup prior to start the ungrade.

  • Can I install an app from the mac app store on just my login?

    I'd like to download apps from the mac app store to just my login and NOT have them installed on other users logins.  how can I do this?

    In your Mac, you have two Applications folder: /Applications, and ~/Applications.
    The first one is the used by default and it stores the applications that are going to be used by all users. The second one is stored in your user folder (~ refers to the user folder), and you have to put the apps you only want to use yourself in this app.
    First, open Finder, select Applications folder in the sidebar and copy all the apps you want, selecting them with Command key and then, pressing Command and C keys. After that, select Go menu > Go to Folder, type ~/Applications, and press Command and V keys there to paste your applications.
    Finally, go back to /Applications and delete the copied apps, so only you will be able to access to those applications
