App Store and Download problems - Help If Possible :(

Hiya. I am New. Sorry for delving straight in for help, but I don't know what I have done here, and I hope someone can help me rectify my problem. I received my BB last week and set it all up - working fine. A colleague of mine directed me to the App Store, and I downloaded that via the handset with no problems. I was able to download the FB, some themes and a dictionary app via the store and was able to access it just fine. Yesterday, I tried to install some new apps and themes via the Desktop Manager, and now the App Store has dissapeared from my handset. I tried to re-download it via my BB and it says something like 'Sorry, this device does not meet the requirements to download App store' and I cannot download any Apps at all. FB and Dictionary are still there, but the themes I tried to put on via DM are not. I removed battery and memory card, and tried again but still get the same message. I tried to put App store back via the DM. It says it was loaded successfully but its not in the handset. I deleted all the themes I had originally downloaded from app store in the hope something was causing a corruption in the handset software but that hasn't worked either. I haven't installed any updates (to my knowledge) and the contract plan i have with my provider doesn't impose any limits to my usage as I have opted for the unlimited package (Tesco Mobile) I can't understand how last week I was able to download and use App store just fine, but now it is saying my handset doesn't support it, and I can't download or install any new Apps, Games or Themes via the desktop manager either. Sorry for rambling on, but I was really happy with my new BB, and now I am afraid i have unwittingly bricked it! Any advice gratefully received! TIA

You can change the settings in Security & Privacy to "Anywhere"...
That should work... as to whether the printer driver will work, that's another question.
Good luck,

    Hi, Hugo,
    In similar cases it helped to remove the GarageBand "Preferences" file from the User Library.
    Open the folder
        your home folder > Library > Preferences
    and move the file "com.apple.garageband.plist" to the Desktop.
    Then try again to launch GarageBand.
    Regards

  • Is there a way to use Automator or Applescript to launch the Mac App Store and download updates automatically?

    As the subject indicates, I'm wondering if anyone knows a way to use AppleScript or Automator to launch the Mac App Store and download any available updates on a set schedule.

    I would advise against this. Updates sometimes reduce functionality or break programs.  I would never get an update with working software unless there is a specific problem you are trying to solve.
    I have read many desperate posts from people trying to go back to earlier versions for various reasons. This is easy to do with disk-based software,  but with downloaded software, going backward can be more difficult.

  • App store and Youtube problems

    Hello, I have a 2g iPod touch which I have started having problems with the last week or so. I can open the app store, browse through all the apps and view them. I can access my iTunes account, but when I press the updates tab in app store, it comes up with the message "cannot connect to itunes". Also when I try to download an app, it won't download, it just appears and says "waiting..."
    I also have the problem with the YouTube app. I cannot view any of the tabs at the bottom. It just comes up with the loading screen and then says cannot connect to youtube. I can access the YouTube website through Safari but when I try and play a video it says the video cannot be played.
    I have updated to the latest software (3.1.3) tried restarting, and restoring my iPod but nothing seems to work. It could be a problem with my Wi-Fi or internet, but I couldn't access the app store at my friends house, using his Wi-Fi either.
    Anybody had the same problem or got any suggestions as to how to solve it?
    Thanks in advance.

    If you read my post I mentioned that I restarted (turn on and off) and reset (restored to defaults), I have the latest software 3.1.3 and I have reset the network settings.

  • Since upgrading my Mac OS 10.9 and Mavericks, I am unable to open App Store and other problems.

    My computer has gone haywire since upgrading to Mac OS 10.9 and adding Mavericks. Mail was a big problem with my not being able to read messages, but now there has been a mail upgrade to solve that. However, still cannot open App Store from my Dock and cannot open Software Update from the apple menu. Lots of other screwy things going on and Apple seems of no help to try and resolve these issues. Anyone with similiar problems or issues?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, 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 steps 1 and 2.

  • I have purchased Keynote from the app store, and downloaded it, but cannot see it to install on my MacBook Air?

    I have purchased Keynote from the app store to use on my MacBook Air, but I cannot find it on the computer, and so I cannot install it.
    What else do I need to do?

    Me too. Have you purchased Keynote via the App Store app in your Mac's dock or Applications folder? ...Purchasing Keynote for iPhone/iPad still requires that you purchase the Mac version separately:

  • IPhone 5 app store and update problems! Please help!

    Okay so I have a iPhone 5 and all my software is up to date. I'm not able to download or update any of my apps. Whenever I press on update, it asks to enter my apple id password and after I do, it stalls for a few seconds and then says "update" again. It does the same thing when I try to downlaod a new app. My apple I.d and password are both correct. This has been going on for several days and I honestly have tried just about everything. I've turned off my phone, made sure my restrictions were off, ect. Pleeease help, it would be greatly appreciated

    Reset the device instead of simply restarting it.
    If that doesn't work, pick one of the apps that is least important to you.  Delete it.  Then try to redownload it.

    The missing apps could have been done by setting the Restrictions that can hid those apps. If the backup was made with those retrictions set the the Restrictions are also restored.
    Thus, if you get it to work restore to factory settings/new iPod, not from backup

  • What is relationship between Mac app store and Yosemite?

    I have decided to update from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion. I have a cryptic little message from Apple saying I need to download the Mac App Store first. But when I click on that link I get something called Yosemite. Is that the same thing as the app store? Do I have to get it? Do I want it? Thanks for any advice and help.

    The topmost part of the opening page at the Mac App store is filled with a HUGE Ad for Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite, the current version of Mac OS X.
    You can use the Icons across the top of the Mac App Store screen to navigate around the site and see if what you want is available.
    EDIT: It turns out Mountain Lion is no longer available for DIRECT download. To buy it, you will need to buy a redemption code at the Apple Online Store (NOT the Mac App Store) for US$20. This coupon will be sent to you by email, typically in 1 to 3 days, but requires human intervention to send it, so nights, weekends, and holidays do not count.
    You will receive the coupon code and instructions by email. You then follow the instructions to redeem your coupon at the Mac App Store and download Mountain Lion. If you wish to proceed on these terms, this is the purchase link:
