App Store says Xcode isn't installed, but it's on my computer.

I installed Xcode on the 6th of August, but now - 23rd of August - in the App Store > Purchased Xcode's button "install" is blue, and install when clicked.
What's wrong?

Xcode 4.1 was released two days before the 6th of August, and it is the one I installed. Yesterday the App Store said that all my apps had been installed, which they had.
It must therefore be a glich. The problem is that I asked it to download, and it's taking an extremely long time, ranging between 1h 50mins to 1day 20h, so I can't launch it from the LaunchPad.

  • Had to uninstall iWork trial since I bought the pages app and it wouldn't let me print or save.  Now the app store says I have pages installed but I can't find it anywhere to open and use it.  I'm not very computer savvy and am getting frustrated!

    Ooops, guess I didn't need to post everything in the title - sorry!  I bought the pages app - but couldn't save or print so with some online searching found that I had to uninstall the iWork trial which had expired.  I did that - but now I can't figure out how to re-install the pages app!!  The app store says it's installed, but I can't find it anywhere to open and use it.  I'm not very computer savvy - and am a first time Mac user and am getting extremely frustrated!  I e-mailed some help center and they can't seem to help me either.  I would appreciate any help/advice that can fix my problem - thanks in advance!!

    OK Apple has stuffed up the demo version upgrade process so the first thing you need to do is get rid of the demo.
    That includes getting rid of the files in the system.
    The instructions how to do that are here:
    Note That where you see / that is the sequence of folders, each nested inside each other.
    User/Library/Preferences the com.apple.iwork.Keynote.plist
    Means the User (you, the little home icon, whatever you are called on your computer) then the Library folder inside that and then the Preferences folder inside that.
    Lion initially hides the System folders from you so you have to go to the Finder > Menu > hold down the option key and click on GO > Library to see it.

  • The App store says mountain lion is installed but it's not

    I have a brand new macbook pro. The store says it's done but in the Launchpad the mountain lion icon is still grey and showing a blank downloading bar. Should I restart my computer?

    Basically, the App Store is telling you that the purchase is complete and the download is underway.
    The ML download is 4GB and can take anywhere from 1-8 hours to download depending on your internet connection speed.  A 1.5Mbps connection will take 7-8 hours, while a 10Mbps will take 1-2 hours.
    Open the App store back up and go to the Purchases tab.  It should show the download progress of ML.
    The progress bar on the ML icon is not a very good indicator since it's so short.

  • HT5444 App store says Mac isn't compatible but I believe its compatible

    I have a Imac with 2.5 Gb memory, Mac OS X 10.6.8, and It's 2007 and newer. What I check the about this mac option, it doesn't tell whether it's a Snow Leopard or Lion installed?  I feel it's upgradable. Can you tell me what to do?

    If you are running 10.6.8, it is Snow Leopard. So what isn't it supposed to be compatible with? Here are the requirements for Lion:

    hello everyone!  i have a new macbook pro and i want to download aperture.  my app store says it is already installed (on my old macbook pro).  how do i install aperture from the app store in this instance please?

    Are yoy sure that Apeture is not in the Applications folder of the new system? If it is move it to the trash and the App Store will let you download Aperture from it.
    You will need to make sure you use the same Apple ID you used to purchase it in the past.

  • HT1338 App Store says I have six updates but when I click on update tab I get blank white screen

    App Store says I have six updates but when I click on update tab I get blank white screen

    That's strange....
    Under Snow Leopard (which is the forum you posted in), updates are done through Software Update.  Not the App Store.

  • App store says I have two updates but noting displays

    App store says I have two updates but noting displays? any one have any ideals, by the way this is happing on both of my ipad mini's.

    Well, try this instead:
    From Demo:
    If you are getting the blank app update screen, many people are having this problem over the last couple of days.
    According to Fly150 in another discussion, this will work.
    If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
    1. Go to App Store
    2. Select Purchased
    3. Select All
    4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
    5. Select update on the Apps
    This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store. Apple needs to fix this. It is a workaround only until then.
    I'm sure things will get straightened out with Apple's servers. Just learn to be patient.

  • App Store says Xcode is installed but it isn't, so I can't install XCode

    What can I say.  I tried to install XCode but it did not finish.  Now the App Store thinks XCode is installed.  I need XCode for MacPorts to work.  Does anyone know how I can tell the App Store XCode is not installed? 

    "Me too"
    Yet another individual in the same boat. ***, Apple?! Why must getting software be so obscure & complicated? What happened to: go to website, download thing, install thing?
    I had Xcode 4.1 installed. Wanted to install (yet another) package with MacPorts, but got complaint that Xcode 4.1 is inadequate.
    So I go to App Store & tell it to install current Xcode…This, BTW, left me with nearly zero feedback that something was going on. Only because I have a menubar widget showing network bandwidth did I know it was downloading.
    while waiting (who knows how long it was to be), I had to sleep my computer to take it with me to work.
    Upon waking my computer, App Store tells me Xcode is installed. Great!
    Back to MacPorts to install that package: it tells me that Xcode 4.1 is too old. ***!?
    Then things get messy & I end up clicking on the circle-X "button" next to XCode in the "Purchases" section of App Store, thinking that'll allow me to install it…that's a dead end
    I then try entirely removing "/Developer" & "/Applications/Install Xcode.app"another dead end
    Trying all combinations of holding any/all keyboard modifiers (option/control/shift/command) while clicking on "Purchases" in App Store did nothing different than not holding any.
    Now I'm left with no Xcode & no way to install it with App Storewhee! this is a fine pit I find myself in now.
    What a lovely user experience! Please, may I have more?! <grumble> <fume>
    In the end, I did resort to my "what happened to…" thought.
    Problem Solved:
    Go to http://connect.apple.com/ & login with your (free) dev account.
    Locate the current version of Xcode (4.3.2 for Lion) & download the dmg
    Install like a normal person. (copy the Xcode.app from the mounted disk image to Applications)
    After a bit of cleanup (things like "/usr/bin/xcodebuild -version" were trying to access things that used to exist), I've again got a working install of Xcode.

  • App store says there's a notification,but inside nothing.i have iOS 7 on iPad 2 and this just happened :/

    i have an iPad 2 with iOS 7.0.2 and the App Store says that there's an App update,but when I open it there's nothing to update (Facebook was already updating at the time) and it's just annoying,plz help
    P.S: I don't think this has anything to do with iOS 7 since I updated it to 7.0.2 long ago and this problem was a long time after that

    (Facebook was already updating at the time) ...
    The notification will remain until the update completes.

  • Want to download a previously deleted app but the app store says it's already installed

    While updating the 'Tumblr' app on my iPod, my internet connection went down and the updating stopped. When I regained internet connection I clicked the app and it just deleted. Now, when I go to the app store to try and install the app again, it says I already have the app and the downloading button is replaced with an  'open' button.
    I've already checked the iPod and it hasn't been moved around or into a folder. If somebody could help I'd be very grateful!

    What happens when you tap the "Open" button?
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Download the app on your computer and sync
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                             
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • App Store indicates new iWork is installed, but it isn't

    Hi all,
    I had iWork '09 installed prior to updating to OS X Mavericks. After updating to OS X Mavericks, I went to the Mac App Store to update the iWork apps. The install seemed to go fine, but afterwords the iWork apps weren't in my Mac's apps folder but the Mac App Store did indicate that the new iWork apps were installed.
    I did some research online and found potential solutions, but none of those worked: rebooting my Mac, uninstalling and reinstalling the iWork apps, creating a new admin account and trying to install the new iWork apps from that account, trying to install the new iWork apps from the Guest account, and using Cocktail to clear all my caches. The Mac App Store still indicates that the new iWork apps are installed, but none of them are in my apps folder.
    I'm at a loss as to what to do next. If anyone has encountered a similar situation and resolved it successfully, I'd really appreciate it if you could post here what worked for you so I can try that.
    Thanks,
    Nikolaus

    I found the reason I couldn't originally find the newly installed iWork apps was because they were installed on external drives which just happened to have folders named "Applications". Spotlight found them, I added them to my dock, right clicked on the iWork apps and chose the "Show in Finder" option. Two of the iWork apps were on one external drive and the other was on another external drive. I ended up just dragging them to my MacBook Pro's hard drive and deleting the ones on the external drives.

  • App store says I have lion installed, and wont open iWork

    Every time I try to open any iWork app I get an error message saying "Keynote cannot be opened because of a problem. Check with the developer to make sure Keynote works with this version of Mac OS X. (Below is the problem details and system config.) I went to apple>about this mac and I have OS X 10.6.8 installed and it had worked before. I then go to the app store and it says I have Lion installed....I never paid to download Lion and it is no installed on my mac because I have none of the new features. The copy of iWork is an academic version provided from my school and I have never had any problems with it until now. Can anyone help?
