App Store on Mac osx crash when attempting to update
I am using a Mac mini 2011 late.
OSX Mountain lion latest penultimate version, just prior to the release of the AFP upgrade.
Problem is:
The App Store crashes!
When I attempt to run the App Store it loads but as soon as I hit the Update icon, the app crashes.
Attempts:
Reboot - failed
Reboot the OSX not allowing any startup programs (holding SHIFT on login) - failed
Removing all the .plist files from the startup demons and the launch directory - failed
I repaired disk permissions - failed
Logged In as a different user - failed
Any suggestion???
Here is part of the error dump:

Safari, App Store, iCloud all instantly crash when I try to open them on iOS 7
Safari, App Store, iCloud all instantly crash when I try to open them on iOS 7.
On iPhone 5s. Cannot back up (on cloud) or even enter settings for any of the apps as it crashes again.
Luckily had Chrome installed or would not be able to go online. Ideas?If you have apps that crash as soon as you attempt to access them and resetting the network settings had no effect I would then go straight to restoring the device back to default settings. Once restored to default I would try the device to see if this resolved the issue BEFORE restoring the backup to the device. It's likely the issue you are having has to do with corrupted software.

about says i have 10.7.2 yet app store on mac mini says i need to update it,
what to do? applecare rep rude says ignorei appreciate the help since Applecare is not helping,
and these replies have not helped, things have gotten worse,
first even though you tell me i dont need the update, i still don't like seeing
an update is available every time i go to macappstore,
next three times now I downloaded the update, it is the whole 3.79 gb Mac OS 10.7.2
i do the long download for the update,
and install and give whatever they ask in passwords etc,
then it reboots and go through all the new installation crap
that I need to do
it is getting to be like a Microsoft project here,
and i cannot get google to show me the way or Applecare
with the one year left on extended support, and these apple communities
don't get me wrong, i am greatful for any help,
especially since Apple care refuses to help,
when they are paid to help
you guys and gals are volunteers and mean well, even though you want to be right about what you say,
the point is it says I need an update for the 10.7.2 and won't give me the update
and take the update off,
now if you say it is something i do not need and it is a glitch with macappstore,
then why doesn't it get fixed or someone else complain about it?
sorry if this offends Apple Zealots which i am one,
I have a windows netbook but I am having more trouble with the latest mac and Icloud which I paid for extra service
and two iphones and i am frustrated, that on the iphone and itunes apps are missing and itunes does not have a direct chat line to help but that is for another forum, just putting it out there. -

App store showing wrong apple id when trying to update but correct id in settings
App store is showing the wrong apple id when trying to do an update but correct id in settings. How do I fix?
I had the same problem. After syncing my phone, my husband's ID was popping up for app updates. Apparently they were downloaded through his account to begin with, so deleting them and redownloading fixed my problem.

Premiere Pro/After Effects CC on Mac OSX crashes when moving media
I have Premiere Pro CC and After Effects CC, in both programs whenever I attempt to move any media (any format) to the timeline from the media browser window Premiere (and After Effects) crashes immediately.
I'm using a MacBook Pro w/ retina, running latest OS, and I have the Microsoft Office suite of apps installed.
Customer service had a go fixing it but to no avail, apparently it has something to do with fonts if that helps anyone, i've reverted all the fonts on my Mac back to the default but still nothing.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!Hi Matt,
Try the following:
Sign out from Creative Cloud, restart Premiere Pro, then sign in
Update any GPU drivers
Trash preferences
Ensure Adobe folder preferences are set to read/write in all 3 locations.
Delete media cache
Remove plug-ins
If you have AMD GPUs, make sure CUDA is not installed
Repair permissions
In Sequence Settings > Video Previews, change the codec to one that matches your footage
Disconnect any third party hardware
If you have a CUDA GPU, ensure that the Mercury Playback Engine is set to CUDA, not OpenCL
Disable App Nap
Reboot
Report back if anything here worked for you.
Thanks,

IMovie 10 crashes when attempt to update projects and events of external HDs.
No way to update projects and events. Crash every time after few minutes of processing. Without external HD, works fine. To access older projects and work on it, the only way seems to be uninstal iMovie 10 and return to 9.
I do not have exactly the same issue, but iMovie 10 seems buggy as all get out and the alledged bugs cause the system to hang something fierce. There are a number of ways to trigger a crash, apparently, but it always proceeds the same way.
The screen - the display - goes all big pixelly and wonky. The computer becomes partially unresponsive. Controls in the apple menu at left end of menu bar work, so I can try some things. Relaunching finder does not help. Logging out does not help. Only shutdown and reboot clears the screen.
But after a few minutes of trying things in iMovie 10, it crashes again. The crash goes the same way each time, but it seems to be triggered by different things.
I have added screen shot - (hope I added a screen shot, anyway. ) Too bad. I think I like iMovie 10.

IPhone 4S keeps crashing when attempting iOS8 update?
Like many of you already have, I'm trying to update my iPhone to the latest iOS8 software.
I am able to download the update, verify the update and begin the installation process, but my phone keeps restarting halfway through installation.
I check via Settings -> General -> Software Update to see if it has somehow updated, but all I am greeted with is the same option to update to iOS8. A vicious and frustrating circle!
I am using an iPhone 4S with 15.9GB free space. Any help would be greatly appreciated.Have you try to update it via iTunes?. I personally download 4S IPSW and install it via itunes, (hold shift for Win / alt for Mac and click restore iphone then browse and open the file) then my iphone restart for update, restarts again then i was greeted with Hello.
make sure you've backup your files either via icloud or itunes -
Please help, Iphoto crashes when trying to update my iphoto library
i recently upgraded my operating system to Lion OS x 10.7.3, and I bought the IPhoto 11' (9.2.1) from the app store. Now it crashes when I try to open after telling me it needs to update my library (version 8.1.2). It starts updating, but then crashes. I have tried rebuilding my library with IPhoto Library Manager, so I can get the program to work with this, but it also crashes in the attempt to rebuild. I can open the program with an empty library, but then I can't get to my old photos. I have also reinstalled Iphoto, without this helping. And I have tried to find these "receipts", and have deleted these. I also have deleted the QuickTime 7, which I still had, and I'm now only running the QuickTime Player 10.1. Now I have to ask you for help. Here is a copy of the first part of the crash report:

Here is the last crash report, but to me it seems like it's the same as before:

Before removing iPhoto (latest update crashed the app), I accidently removed it from my purchased Apps from the App Store. I accept iPhoto when I search for it, but does not put it back in my list. How do I get this back so that I can reinstall iPhoto?
Thank you.I found the answer just after posted this. Thanks to a user named CloudWalker. Solution is to go in AppStore, View Account under "Store" Menu and unhide any purchases.

Just updated to iOS 8.2. Settings app still crashes when attempting to manage music storage.
Thanks for your reply. Any suggestions for ways to fix this? If I've already updated using my phone, am I just screwed?

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 shows incorrect apple id when i attempt to download updates.
app store shows incorrect apple id when i attempt to download updates. I have tried signing out of iTunes in the settings and re-logging in as suggested but this didn't fix the problem in the app store
Sorry, but didn't see anything there that would help me precisely. Thanks for your input. my apple ID is my email address which ends in .net. My apple ID listed on the app update ends in .com. I've confirmed in the settings/store area and it's correct there. I'm still at a loss.
