App store tells me I have updates available, but when I get there there are no icons
I have not updated the system it simply stopped working.
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 App Store Icon has a Badge showing that there are 8 Updates available. When I open up the App Store and go to Updates, the screen is blank. This is the first time I've experienced this and I don't find any other discussions in the Apple Communities. This is only happening on my iPad 4. My iPhone 5 is working perfectly.
It seems Apple is having some issues at their end. There have been hundreds of posts on the forum with the same problem.

The App Store tells me I have installed Lion, but About this Mac tells me I'm running 10.6.8
Have tried reaching Apple with no success.
I have been charged for the OS X but don't have it installed. About this Mac tells me I am still running Snow Leopard and when I go into the App Store it says installed and I can't reinstall it. I have reloaded Snow Leopard and then went to the App Store and it still told me I had Lion installed. What is going on? Is Apple ripping its loyal customers off?The installer should be in your Applications Folder

Hi, App Store tells me I have installed the latest Pages update, yet it will not open Pages docs created on other machines that DO have the latest version . Any tips?
Hi
Pages 5.0 and 10.9.
While App Store tells me there is no update avalable to Pages, which it says was installed Nov. 4, its the old Avatar/logo thingo and, as I say, it will not open the Pages docs created on my MacBook, which definiitely does have the new Pages running smoothly.

I updated my ipad mini to iOS 6.1.2 and have not been able to udate my apps in the AppStore since. It say I have updates available but the page remains blank. I have tried switching the unit off and on and to no avail. Can anyone help?
Try this:
1. Close all apps in the Task Bar. Double-click the Home button and hold apps down for a second or two. Tap the minus sign to close app.
2. Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo. -
I keep getting notified I have an update available but when I try to update I get the following msg ,"You have updates available for other accounts To update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it.". I only have one account with apple and the software was preinstalled when I purchased my macbook in Aug 2012 with that account. Has anyone had this problem or know how to find out what account apple needs?
You log into the App store using the same Apple ID you used to set the computer up, verify that none of your apps are hidden and that they have all be accepted and then download and install the update
for help contact the App store support - link is on the right ot the App store window

Apps menu shows 5 updates available, but when I go to download them it says none are available
apps menu shows 5 updates available, but when I go to download them it says none are available. How do I remove that number?
Get some apps from someone else, perhaps? You can check by doing a "Get Info" on your apps; that will show the account under which they were purchased.
Oh, and just to clarify so I'm not barking up the wrong tree, what exactly is iTunes saying? Is it showing the number in the icon indicating that there are five apps to be updated but showing the screen that says "No updates are currently available"? Or is it giving an error message somethign like "the item you requested is not available in the iTunes Store"?

I have Photoshop CS5 Extended and it says updates available but when i download the updates it says updates failed please try again later, i have tried a few times and get the same message any help would be great i am running 64bit on windows 8.
I am running Windows 7 64 bit ultimate and have the same problem. My hard drive crashed, installed a new one and then reinstalled CS5 extended. Installation went fine, but can no longer open my camera RAW files from Photoshop (camera is a Canon EOS T2i. The message also tells me I am not eligible for the update. I am... and I cannot open my files and I could before. I can find nowhere to contact Adobe to tell me how to proceed. My daughter is all a registered user of the same product and she had no problems upgrading... we purchased ours each at the same time. I do know the difference is that I had to reinstall and she did not. If that means anything.

hi i am interested in how to buy an app in app store if i dont have us credit card. when i try to buy an app it says to fill in billing information and when i fill my card specs. it says that its incorrect. so what can i do to buy an app? plz help really important cant buy anything : (
p.s. sorry for bad englishIf you are not in the US with a US billing address and payment method then you can't buy items from the US store - you need to be in a country to use its store.
Does your credit card work with your own country's store ? For it have a chance of being accepted the credit card then needs to be registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, and to have been issued by a bank in the country where you and your iTunes account are.
What's the actual error message that you are getting ? -
Why do Apps on my iPhone show updates but when I check there are no updates?
Why do Apps on my iPhone show updates but when I check there are no updates?
I check my Apps on my MacBook and it says there is 1 update but when I check that there are none.
Then I sync my iPhone with my MacBook and my iPhone says there are 7 updates for my Apps.
This is very confusing. I wish someone could fix this and make it simple and accurate to use.Sometimes the update notification comes on but updates themselves do not appear if the iOS is not appropriate for the update. For example, I have an original iPad, thus limited to iOS 5.1.1, but an app I use has an update that requires iOS 6.1.3. So I have a consistent update notification but cannot get the update. So, check your iOS and see if it is up to date.

Using Adobe Photoshop CS2 version 9 and have updated it, but when stacking photos, it comes up with PSD, whereas I want Jpeg, and I change the format to Jpeg and the box then comes up with cannot save as there is a program error. Be very grateful for help with this, please.
jpg does not support Layers.
Just to make sure, what exactly do you mean by "stacking photos" and what do you want to achieve thereby? -

IMovie won't update to 9.0.8, Mac App Store tells me I have to buy?
So, the problem I am having, as alluded to by the title, is that in the "Updates section of the Mac App Store, iMovie has an update to 9.0.8 listed, but when I attempt to update to the new version, the Mac App Store tells me I need to buy it, However, iMovie came preinstalled on my 1 1/2 month old Macbook Pro with Retina Display. I don't use iMovie often, so it's not a big deal, but I do find it very annoying.
The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
When you get a new Mac with the iLife apps preinstalled, you need to accept these apps into your Mac App Store (MAS)/iTunes Stores Apple ID. Have you done that?
Normally soon after setting up your new Mac you need to open the MAS and sign into your account. Go to the Purchased pane and acccept the three iLife apps.
