App Store stopped working on MBP

I'm running OSX 10.9.2 on at mid 2009 MBP.  For some reason the App Store app take sforever to load and the just sits there.  All tabs are empty (Updates, Featured, Etc) and response is extremly slow opening a menu item.  Nothing new has been added recently.  It just stopped working.

Rebooting didn't help BUT loging out, loging in to a different account, logging out again and loging in to my original account seemed to work.  Must have been a cashe problem.

  • After I upgrade lion to Mavericks, App Store stopped working, any idea how to fix this?

    After I upgraded OS lion to Mavericks, in app store I had some new updates, then after a system update, which require restart, then App Store, stopped working, any one can tell me what should I do to fix this problem?

    Guys just contact apple support team . They will guide you well and your problem will most probably be resolved. I contacted them and following their instructions my mac is working totally fine again. If at all the problem persist the re-install mavericks by following steps
    1). Switch of mac
    2). Hold option/alt key and then switch it on.
    3). Then choose your language and continue.
    4). Now Re-Install OS X .
    5). It will start downloading and installing.
    6). Leave it idle for the required amount of time.
    7). It will restart automatically and your problem will be definitely resolved.
    Note:
    a. If there is any problem of connection follow the same steps and the downloading will start where it stopped.

  • Updates tab in Mac App Store stopped working.

    I don't have time to test all of these to find out for sure which one it may be, so I thought I'd post it here in case someone might already know the answer. I disabled and removed a bunch of features from my iMac running Mountain Lion 10.8.5 and one of these caused the Updates section of the Mac App Store to stop working and return the error "The App Store is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later." Anybody know what might be causing this? Thanks, and please don't bother asking why I would do any of this, that doesn't help. This isn't a complete list of things I changed but I've narrowed it to one/some of these.

  • App Store stopped working on Iphone 5 Ios 8

    App store on my wife's Iphone 5 running Ios 8 stopped working initially to update two Apps (Line & Facebook Messenger).  Troubleshooting so far:
    - Hard reset.
    - Logged out of App store, Hard reset, logged back in.
    - Deleted Messenger, logged out of App store, Hard reset, logged back in.  Now can't install Messenger at all!
    - Tried with WiFi only.
    - Tried with Cell only
    - Tried hooked up to computer/Itunes
      Really frustrating!  When works the way it's supposed to I'll think about using Apple's spelling.  For now it's Iphone, not iPhone.

    I am having the same problem.  My iPhone is 1 week old, and as of last night, 10/11/12, my app store would not function corretly.  I can open the app store but the following tabs do not work:  Featured, charts, and search.  By "do not work" I mean that the gray spinning wheel will go for a while and then stop as if it is finished loading but the screed will still be blank aside from the top and bottom banners of the app.  The Genius and Updates tab work fine.  This is very annoying and nothing I have done so far has fixed it.  I have restarted the app, restarted my phone, "hard" restarted my phone, and reset my network settings.  I have also tried accessing the app store on wifi and 3g/4g and neither work.  Everything has been done except a factory reset of my phone but I am avoiding that for now.  I have seen MANY others in the forums with this concern so is there anyone that has successfully solved this problem?
    Help would be much appreciated.

    Often (almost every time now) when I am browsing the App Store with iTunes (v12.1.1) I suddenly get a "iTunes Has Stopped Working" message and then iTunes closes.  I am running Windows 8.1 with all the latest updates installed.
    Can anyone help me with this?
    Thanks,

  • Can't get App Store to work on MBP

    I have tried to get the download from 10.6.6. upgrade but find it stops me - I'm on 10.6.7. I can't find anything on the web to help, despite clearly lots of others are having the same problem. Rowland

    Is this an Early 2011 MBP?
    Try manually downloading and installing this update;
    Mac OS X v10.6.7 Update for early 2011 MacBook Pro
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1368
    If it is older, then try this one, it is fairly large!
    Mac OS X v10.6.7 Update Combo
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1361
    I would drag the MAS app to the Trash and restart before applying either of the updates.

  • After upgrading to Mavericks App store only works for me when I switch over other users

    After upgrading to Mavericks, the only options that work for me on App Store are Updates and Purchases, anything else only works if I switch my user either to guest or root? Any idea?  Thx in advance. 

    Read this whole message before doing anything.
    Back up all data.
    Quit the App Store application if it’s running.  Wait at least 10 seconds before continuing.
    Step 1
    Hold down the option key and select
    Go ▹ Library
    from the Finder menu bar. Delete the following items from the Library folder (some may not exist):
    Caches/com.apple.appstore
    Caches/com.apple.storeagent
    Caches/storeagent
    Cookies/com.apple.appstore.cookies
    Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.appstore.plist
    Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.storeagent.plist
    Preferences/com.apple.storeagent.plist
    Leave the Library folder open. Try the App Store again. If it works now, stop here. Close the Library folder.
    Step 2
    If you still have problems, quit again and wait 10 seconds. Go back to the Finder and move the following items from the open Library folder to the Desktop:
    Cookies/com.apple.appstore.plist
    Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist
    Test. If the App Store now works, delete the files you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, quit again. Put back the files you moved, overwriting the newer ones that may have been created in their place, and post your results.
