Hi furiales,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issues you are describing. If you are having issues connecting to the iTunes Store or App Store, you may find the following article helpful:

my internet connection is ok, mail is ok, but app store after 3 resets does not recognize my ID and it says "connection is not possible". Why? I have the same problem in both my mac mini late 2009 and mac book air 2010? Is it a problem of 10.7.4 update? I have to solve this problem and how can i return to 10.7.3 if my last backup was not with 10.7.3???thank you for your kind collaboration...

App Store does not recognize my id, but works

I have my MacBook Pro 15 (2013), iPad, iPad mini, and an iPhone 4. For some reason I could not menage to sinc iPhone reminders with MacBook. Just downloaded tweeter on my iPhone and got the message saying that somebody used my id from unauthorised device. The funny thing is my phone has same credit card information that other devices, and shows that I am signed in with the same id. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Why doesn't Mac App Store does not recognize my apple ID?

The Mac App Store is not recognizing my apple ID. Please help.

It works on my iphone. It works for this forum. It works for itunes. It works for everything EXCEPT the Mac App Store, for which I've already used it to purchase apps that now need updating. It just keeps saying "an unknown error has occurred" Grrr...

App Store does not recognize my Apple ID what should I do?

My Apple ID does not work for App Store , when I click on App Store the id that appears on App Store is very different from my Apple ID

You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store alert. For example, the App Store may prompt you to update "Angry Birds" or "Twitter," but the hacked app may be something else entirely. Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you must carry out a systematic search with Spotlight.
1. Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
2. In the Finder, press command-F to open a search window, or select
File ▹ Find
from the menu bar. In the search window, select
Search: This Mac
from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu of search criteria, initially showing Kind. From that menu, select
Other...
A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select
Raw Query
as the criterion, then click OK or press return.
Now there will be a text box to the right of the menu of search criteria. That's where you enter the raw search query. Click in that box and paste the text you copied earlier by pressing command-V.
4. The search window will now show all the App Store products that are installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
At least one of the apps in the Spotlight search results is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash, after quitting it if it's running. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
Quit and relaunch the App Store. Test.
If you find these instructions confusing, ask for an alternative method.

App store does not accept my password

This is all of my problem. On my iPhone when I want to download something from the AppStore it always tells me that the password is incorrect. I checked the Id and it seems to be correct. So I try it on my Mac and it does not work. It tells me that the apple id must be in email form (I put it in without email ending). I add the email ending and it works. Glad it works so I tried it on my phone and it didnt work. I noticed that before I entered the password it says just "example" where it should be "[email protected]" I went to see if I can change the settings it says it is in email form. But it removes the email ending when I am in the AppStore. Is there anyway to fix this??? PLEASE HELP ME??? thank you

All apps, all paid and free apps include DRM protection which is tied to the iTunes account/Apple ID that was used to download the apps. You will need to use the Apple ID that was used to download the apps to install app updates.
Apps downloaded with one Apple ID can't be transferred to another ID and accounts can't be merged.

Why doesn't Mac App Store does not recognize my new Apple ID?

I change my Apple Id several weeks ago and everything seemed fine until I tried to update a game in the App Store. Has anyone else had this problem?

To update an App Store product, you must sign into the store with the same ID you used to purchase it.

ITunes store does not recognize my password

Do I need a different password for iTunes Store or should it recognize my apple ID passwords?

I'm still having the same problem ... 6 months after your original post! I've just had to reset my pw 2 days in a row, and I've been through so many resets over the past 6 months that I'm running out of ideas for passwords that I'll have a reasonable chance of remembering. But I also always make a careful note of my important passwords, and after the 1st "password error" message, I check my list and enter the password very slowly and carefully. So, I think I'm pretty safe in claiming that neither entering the wrong password nor making a typo is the problem!
Oddly, though, I could usually cancel the password-reset process, then go right to the the iTunes Store, where my password would work fine, allowing me to open and view all my account details.
Several months ago, I spent about 45 minutes on the phone with Tech Support trying to get this fixed. He was great and we thought he'd found the problem with my account. (When I originally set up my iTunes account 6 years ago, I used a different email address than I used when I set up my new Mac last year, and that seemed to be causing some sort of conflict within my account. Hard to imagine someone might change email addresses sometime over a 6-year period, right? But apparently, the software designers didn't cover that possibility with one of their recent updates of the master system for customers' accounts -- that's the Tech Rep's surmise, not mine.)
Everything seemed to work fine for a few weeks, but then the problem started occurring again ... over and over and over ...

Mac app store does not accept my apple password

The Mac App store does not accept my password for my apple ID. A red line appears that says "an unknown error has occured." The ID and Password are being typed in correctly, I am 100% sure of that. Credit card is up to date. Itunes is working fine and logged in to Apple ID. Ipad and Iphone are logged in, working fine. Have not installed Maverick, still using Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5. I was going to update to Mavrick, but not sure I should with all the negative reviews and now this problem. Please help, thanks!

It's been reported that Apple's servers are having problems tonight. Just try again later.

App store does not 'see' Aperture (no update)

After updating to Mavericks, the App Store does not recognize Aperture as an installed/bought app.
Updates from 3.2 up to and including 3.4.5 have worked flawlessly. Now the App Store update page tells me there are no updates for Aperture while I'm stuck at version 3.4.5.
In the System Information app, under 'Installations', there's an Aperture Update entry dating 30 October 2013 but without a version number. Could this be a botched update which is blocking further updates? If so, how can I purge it?
Thanks for any help.
Gus

On another discussion thread, I found the "solution" to the problem. Changing the system language to English magically solves the issue and now Aperture is at version 3.5.
Bad QC, Apple!

Changed my email address, confirmed my password. The App Store still has old address and does not recognize my password.

Easy fix... it's a refresh issue. Sign out and back in with changed name.

I keep getting a popup error message in Ical "server does not recognize name/password

I keep getting a popup error message in Ical "server does not recognize name/password" This started after they did the change to Icloud and extended our subcriptions.

I guess that the server name is incorrect, then.
Did it ever work?
Delete the account, reboot the phone, then add it back and be sure you choose Yahoo as the mail server type. Everthing should then fill in automatically except your user name and password.

Following hard drive failure on iMac running Maverick I have recovered from TimeMachine backup but now app store does not connect. All other internet connections normal. Does anyone know of a fix?

Also mail not loading. The error report suggests that I look for updates from the app store?
