App store log-in problems and alarm woes
I have a couple issues with my new iPhone.
I've been trying to download the free myspace app and when I do it asks me to enter my account information. I have two different Apple IDs and have tried BOTH (even resetting a password to make sure that it was correct) and no matter which one I use, it won't log me in. It tells me "Authorization failed. Please connect to iTunes"...not a clue what THAT means. How would connecting to iTunes help anything? How do I even DO that on my iPhone?
Also, I've always used my cell phone as an alarm clock in the morning. I wasn't sure it'd go off while locked so I tested it last night and it worked. This morning I woke up twenty minutes late because it didn't go off. And I didn't have the snooze option on so it's not that I slept through it and it stopped. What's the deal?
Ahhhh, but what about computer authorisation and the credit card 3 digit security code. Wouldn't that stop what you suggest ? I mean people use keychain for thinks like banks, Ebay, Amazon, and dozens of other things but Apple doesn't trust it for it's own services. Seems a bit weird to me.

I have been on to apps store logged in and gone on my purchurse to try and re down load Mountin Lion however it just states an error as accord I can't get it to re down load to launch pad in lion
1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
How much free space on it now? -
My app store, Apple ID, safari, and most other apps do not work after upgrading to iSO 6, How do i solve this problem? Can somebody help me please?
The App store is a problem for many and I have not seen a solution.
What is "wrong" with your Apple ID?
Try the following:
- A reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod. -

My iPhone 4S has a problem. The App Store is in Spanish and will not go back to English. Help someone!
I tried turning the computer off and then back on. The alerts don't show the notice to update as resolved. Hopefully this is not a problem or an indicator or another problem. Should I ignore or reload 10.10.1 from the app store to trigger a resolved check in a green circle?
Interesting that I had to buy server software after my free Yosemite download. I would have hoped that the two pieces of software would have gone together without any complication. It is not positive to end up buying a problem. Ah well, time to move on. -

Post subject: NSURLErrorDomain error -1100 in OS X 10.8
If you check for software updates using the App Store in OS X 10.8 and get "NSURLErrorDomain error -1100" the problem may be with your Software Update preferences. This is particularly likely if you were using a custom Apple Software Update server. To solve the problem, quit the App Store, move the following two files (if present) to the trash, restart, and only then rerun App Store updates:
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist.lockfile

I was recently trying to upgrade to mountain lion through the app store. I have unreliable Internet from a cable company whom I will not name, but we all know who they are. My Internet dropped while downloading the upgrade. Once I went through the notorious unplug the modem/router and plugged it back in to gain Internet connectivity again, I could not resume. No matter what I did, the app store kept displaying "an error occurred." I am hoping that those with the same issue read this first to save them hours of skimming through the Internet to find a solution. Here are the steps to take:
1. Make sure you have reestablished Internet connection
2. Chances are you got frustrated when you tried to resume/unpause the download and clicked the "X" to the left. If so, select the "Store" drop-down menu from the App Store and select "View My Account." There should be an option to unhide your purchase. You know what to do.
3. There is also an option to reset all warnings for buying and downloading under "View My Account." Do this, click "Done," sign out of the App Store and quit the App Store.
4. Open the Preferences in safari and select Privacy. Select "Remove All Website Data." Just do it.
5. Launch the app store and sign in.
6. Now, if you "Check for Unfinished Downloads" everything works peachy.
I hope this helps. Not much I can do for your Internet connection though.

My mac app store won't load and when click it nothing happens happens
my mac app store won't load and when you click it nothing happens...it was okay for the past months but now i don;t know why it won't open...please help...
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 documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; 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 the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup 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, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2. -
App store reports Pinball HD and 11 other apps cannot be purchased at this time.....
App store reports "Pinball HD and 11 other apps cannot be purchased at this time"..... This occurs whenever I log into the app store. I have already purchased this app (and presumably the 11 others as well). I believe this started when it showed up as an app I should update (for free).
My wife and I share this iPad and we have apps purchased under two different store accounts on this machine. I have tried to log off and sign in with her account and then check updates but with either account I am told that all apps are up to date. All of our credit card info is current. Any clues?Already on Automatic..... :(
This is an iPad 1 - I've had it since it first came out (ordered directly from Apple). Lots of apps and purchases over the years. My wife got her own WiFi only iPad shortly after mine as she fell in love with it and I don't share well. ;) This only started about 7-10 days ago. I did not update to iOs 5.1 until last night so this predates that. My concern is that when the iPad 3 arrives next Friday that this will transfer over.
Ever since my wife received her own iPad our purchases are pretty much separate. -
Safari is not working on the Mac. Internet is fine. mail, App Store etc all working and connecting to Internet fine. Done the latest software update, still not working. When selecting a web address from bookmarks or typing in search bar, partial blue bar only and coloured wheel appears.
From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
If you wish, you may be able to salvage the malfunctioning extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. That will revert its settings to the defaults.
If extensions aren't causing the problem, see below.
Safari 5.0.1 or later: Slow or partial webpage loading, or webpage cannot be found -
WHen I first installed iOS 6 the App Store crashes...and now having iOS 6 for 2 weeks now, all my apps are buggy and now are crashing! Safari and built in apps are becoming slow and crash. I hate how apple leaves iPod touch 4g and iPhone 4 in the dark and basically force us to upgrade to newer devices. Apple could of done better with the update and needs to resolve these issues.
Try:
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

App store hide/unhide problems: (1) can't "unhide" (2) "hidden" apps don't remain hidden
I've searched hither and yon online for a way to “unhide” apps I’ve hidden in the App Store. The procedures I’ve been able to find, involve choosing “View Account”, logging in, and selecting an item called “Unhide Hidden Apps”. This would seem straightforward enough except that, I find nothing for “Unhide Hidden Apps”. I’ve tried on both my iPad and my iPhone, both running the latest iOS.
Then, to add to the frustration, this. I select an app in the App Store. I slide and select “Hide”. (Say I’m viewing the set “All”.) Then I select “Not on This iPad”. The supposedly “hidden” app is still visible. Okay, what the heck? I slide and select “Hide”. Then I select “All”. Guess what? The app is still visible. I select “Not on This iPad”. The app is still visible. Not fair. :-(You are right. They do not all show up there - I'm thinking only those that are actually downloaded to the Mac maybe?
If you go to the Quick Links section in the iTunes Store, and click on Apps and All, you should see both the downloaded and the iCloud ones on that list. (make sure you have also click on "All" and not on "Not in My Library".
And if you hover over an app on that list, you will see a little "x" in the top left-hand corner. Clicking on that hides the app. You can hide both apps that are downloaded as well as those still in the cloud. However, it does not remove it from your device. If you did hide it in iTunes, and then also deleted it from your device, it would then be fully "hidden".
Does that make sense? (I still can't figure out how to do the Hide thing on my iPhone.... )

I can't access iTunes Store or App Store featured on iTunes and iPhone
I recently purchased some apps from the App Store on my iPhone and then tried to remove my payment card but my iPhone said it 'Can't connect to store' something along those lines. So to remove the payment card I used iTunes on my Windows PC. That worked fine but then I attempted to go to the iTunes Home tab but it said ' The item you requested is not currently available in the UK'. So I went to my account details to check where my location was set and it was correct, in the UK.
I have previously done this process but I never encountered the problem. I did search in iTunes and that worked but the software doesn't seem to load any tabs.
Could someone please tell me what the problem is?try sign out & sign back in again. your password must be same as on your mac
