Hello Mashael,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with the Mac App Store.  I recommend the following article for the issue you described (the title of this article references an error that you didn’t mention, but the steps are relevant for the issue you described):
OS X: "Cannot connect" or "Cannot connect to the App Store. An internet connection is required"

  • App Update Failed then App Store Says Not Available

    I just attempted to update my iMac with the latest versions of Safari, iPhoto, Aperture, etc.
    The files downloaded but the installation then failed.
    I have checked the version number of all the affected Apps and confirmed that they did not update (e.g. Safari is v6.0.1, not v6.0.2).
    When I return to the App Store, however, it says no updates available.
    I found in a CNet article (http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57530446-263/fix-corrupt-mac-app-store-down loads/) a recommendation to delete the cache so that the App Store updates reset. I have tried this but the App Store still shows 'No Updates Available'.
    I know I can use the Apple download site to obtain some of the updates, but not all of them are available there e.g. Safari.
    Any suggestions?

    Just in case anyone arrives here with a similar issue, I wanted to post that the problem has fixed itself. When I relaunched the App Store one day after encountering the issue, the Updates had reappeared.
    I was able to successfully download and install them.
    Clearly there is a time lag before the Updates reset after a failed download or install.  I am sure there is a file that can be deleted or edited to accelerate this, but I have not yet found it...

  • App store download not available in US

    Im trying to re download lion from app store but first I found it hidden in my account. After I un hid it it will not download because it says it is not available in the US... ??

    Lion is not available from the App Store.
    If you have previously purchased Lion and need to restore v10.7 Lion ...
    Restart your Mac while holding down the Command + R keys.
    From there you can access the builit in utilities to restore.
    Read before proceeding >   About OS X Recovery
    Backup all important data before performing a restore.

  • Whenever I try to download or update an app from the App Store it says " App Store is not available" What should I do?

    Ok so I've had my iPod for almost a year now and I have never had this problem before. But now I'm not able to download apps from the App Store. I am able to get into the App Store and browse apps, but as soon as I try to download something it says "app store is unavailable"
    What should I do?
    BTW!
    I tried signing in/out

    Do you have any Restrictions set that would do that? Settings>General>Restrictions
    Where are you located?
    Are you using the country's store for where you are located?

  • App Store shows update available but will not display the update or tell me that there are no updates...

    There is a badge with the number 1 on my "App Store" icon, but when I go to see what needs to be updated, the App Store does not display the app that has an update nor does it say that there are no updates available.  Basically the place that tells me these things, is completely blank.  I have the word "Updates" at the top of the screen and I can see an icon on the bottom right corner area that has the cirlce with a down arrow and the word "Updates" with a badge with the number 1 in it. 
    The iPad 2 has 6.1.2 for the iOS.  I have already closed the app out completely by closing the app in the multitasking section and then restarting it.  This does not correct the issue.  I have also restarted the iPad 2, however this did not correct the issue either.
    If anyone has seen this and knows it is a glitch in the software, and that Apple is aware of it, please let me know.  If anyone knows how to correct this, please let me know.  Thanks.

    The update server is down; try this temporary workaround
    App Store>Purchased>Select "All"
    Note: Look out for apps that have the word "Update"

    My apps store will not go online with verizon network, but on wifi it works. I am on an iphone 4, verizon.  I tried to do a complete, backup and restore on the phone 1 day before i noticed this problem,  The backup finished but the RESTORE would fail I had an error, could not access Apple server ( some server name I cant remember).
    I have plenty of space available on the iphone,
    8gb free,
    ios version- 6.1.3 ( 10B329)
    carrier - Verizon 14.0
    Modem Firmware - 3.0.04
    Can someone help.
    I tried doing my backup restore on the same computer as I once did a year ago. and THis time I cant do the restore on the iphone.
    computer osx is 10.5.8
    itunes version 10.
    I do not wish to go to ios 7 at this time.

    Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    Basic troubleshooting is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
    If the issue continues, contact the carrier to troubleshoot the network connectivity issues.

  • 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.

  • HT201272 How do I download previously purchased albums from iTunes when the album has either disappeared from my computer or the tunes are not playable?  The album shows as purchased on the iTunes store, but not available to download to my authorized devi

    How do I download previously purchased albums from iTunes when the album has either disappeared from my computer or the tunes are not playable?  The albums show as purchased on the iTunes store, but not available to download to my authorized device.  I also have albums that appear in my library, but are not able to be added to my iPod from my computer

    When you download something from the iCloud, it is a brand new licensed copy. Your iCloud account just contains a notation that you have this app. It isn't storing an actual copy of the app from your Mac.

  • App Store can no longer be opened.  Immediate crash and error message "App Store can not be opened because of a problem"

    App Store won't open, error message "App Store can not be opened because of a problem".  I haven't been able to update anything for a week or so.  I have used Disk Utility, Drive Genius, deleting the .plist, all to no avail.  My Mac Mail hasn't worked since the upgrade to Mavericks.  Mavericks can't see my LaCie Cloudbox.  Can any of these be solved by me? 

    I have the same error "XXXX App cannot be opened because of a problem". And I also cannot open iTunes and get the error "This copy of iTunes is corrupted or is not installed correctly.  Please reinstall iTunes."
    Only Apple apps seem to be at issue here...
    Repairing Permissions did not fix this.
    I noticed this after the last Software update. Is there no fix other than re-installing?
    Not happy that an Apple software update killed all my apps...

  • MY APP STORE IS NOT WORKING.HOW TO ACTIVATE IT?

    MY APP STORE IS NOT WORKING.HOW TO ACTIVATE IT?

    Hi sahaabhijeet,
    The resource below explains how to use the App Store on your iPhone:
    App Store Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT2001
    The App Store is a place where you can download new applications for your iPhone or iPod touch. You can browse the App Store on your computer with iTunes, or by tapping App Store on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
    Do I need to sign up for a new account to shop the App Store?
    If you already have an iTunes Store account, you can shop the App Store. If you do not have an iTunes Store account, you can create one using iTunes. Verify that the country flag at the bottom of the iTunes Store home page displays your country, then choose Store > Create Account. Click here for a way to set up an iTunes App Store account without a credit card. You can also create an iTunes Store account directly from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch by following these instructions.
    Accepted payment types
    Shopping the App Store requires an iTunes Store account. When you create an iTunes Store account, you must provide a payment method for your purchase. The available payment methods vary by country, but typically you can use credit cards, gift cards, store credit, or PayPal. 
    In countries where the iTunes Store only sells applications, the accepted payment methods are Visa, MasterCard, and American Express. Other payment types such as gift cards, store credit, monthly allowances, and PayPal are not accepted. Depending on your App Store country, prices are listed in either US Dollars or Euros.
    What can I purchase from the App Store?
    At the App Store, you can browse and download applications for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. Applications from the App Store can be downloaded to, but not used on, your computer. To use an application from the App Store, simply sync it to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. The App Store is also available on iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch1 and works over mobile phone networks and Wi-Fi, so you can download applications wirelessly and start using them instantly.
    To use applications or the App Store with iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, you must have iOS 2.0  or later installed on your iPhone or iPod touch, and iOS 3.2 or later on iPad.
    Some applications are not available in all countries. Application availability and pricing are subject to change.
    Cheers,
    Judy

  • The App Store is not supported in this country

    Hi, everyone I live in Hong Kong, and I bought my Ipad in US. When I click on the App Store. It said "The App Store is not supported in this country' How can I solve this problem? Thx for help =]

    The Apps Store on your iPad will not work until the iPad is officially released in your country. However, you can buy most apps in your computers iTunes software/account. Type iPad in the apps tab search box, choose "show all" in the iPad tab and scroll through the list. You can also visit a site like appshopper.com and review the apps for iPad and choose the ones you would like. Return to iTunes and search for the names of the apps you want. Some of the "Apple" apps and third party apps(i.e. iBooks, ABC Player, etc.) will not be available until release in your country, however, you can download most.
