Apps fail to download from app store

I am having trouble downloading or updating several apps from the App Store. I get the error message, " ...app failed to download. Use the Purchases page to try again." Gets caught in that cycle.
I'm on 10.9.5, 2012 MacBook Pro.
Gatekeeper settings ar correct, and I've disabled Sophos virus protection.  I've checked other community support answers, have not come up with anything that works.
My Apple ID login is correct and confirmed. No problems downloading and installing system updates.
I've also tried downloading as a new user (with the same apple ID).

I have no idea how my reply could be "misleading". I stated the exact situation: there are millions of apps in the iTunes Store, and providing a comprehensive, accurate list of which apps support which version(s) of iOS would be highly impractical. You can perhaps help with your search by going to AppShopper:
http://appshopper.com/search/?search=iOS+3
That will give you at least some starting points, but AppShopper is neither comprehensive nor completely accurate. I've found a number of apps listed there over the time the site has existed that either are no longer offered or which have been updated beyond the iOS version indicated. But it might help.
Regards.

  • There were some updates on my Apps.  I updated them on my iTunes but my iPad did not get the same downloads/updates thru iCloud.  Does the iCloud only works for "New" Apps or Books downloaded from the store but not the "Updates"?

    There were some updates on my Apps.  I updated them on my iTunes but my iPad did not get the same downloads/updates thru iCloud.  Does the iCloud only works for "New" Apps or Books downloaded from the store but not the "Updates"?

    Purchased music does not count against your iCloud storage and you cannot get rid of them in the purchased tab.
    What is backed up
    You get unlimited free storage for:
    Purchased music, movies, TV shows, apps, and books
    Notes: Backup of purchased music is not available in all countries. Backups of purchased movies and TV shows are U.S. only. Previous purchases may not be restored if they are no longer in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
    Some previously purchased movies may not be available in iTunes in the Cloud. These movies will indicate that they are not available in iTunes in the Cloud on their product details page in the iTunes Store. Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer available in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
    Look here for help on managing iCloud storage.

  • Final cut pro fails to download from app store

    Final cut pro X fails partway through downloading from app store. When I try to re initialize it immediately fails. Reboot creates the same result. I have 350gb available on this drive. It appears to consistently fail at around 2.2gb of download.

    Solution is:
    1) Close App Store.
    2) Open terminal and run: open $TMPDIR../C/
    3) Delete folder: "com.apple.appstore."
    4) If FCP file exists in the applications folder - delete that too.
    5) Launch App Store
    6) Restart downloads.
    This worked for me and others as well.

  • Amazon Instant Prime App will not download from App Store

    When I try and download this App from the App Store I get an error message saying that "the App you tried to buy is no longer available".
    Any ideas?

    Found out why. The localisation setting in Restrictions (even though Restrictions is turned off) was set to United States, and I'm in the UK.
    Good grief...

  • Does anyone know how to open file '.balance' which made from 'Balance' app that I downloaded from App Store and now it's discontinue?

    I have my expense file which made by 'Balance' app. Now I cannot find the app in App Store and cannot open the file.
    If anyone has a way to open the file, please share.

    I thought only IOS app is back up to iTunes. Mac apps are not, am I right?
    I can't find the app anywhere in my system and all the Mac app download websites.
    I really need the data in the file.
    I'm not sure if any other apps can open '.balance' file extension.
    I'm confused. I thought you were talking about this Balance - it is an iOS-only app. If you are talking about some other app, then you will have to look on your Time Machine backup.
    I am quite certain that only that app will be able to open the data.

    If the Doctor doesn't work, then probably nothing will.  Run a search for doctoring and you can find how to do it.  A phone Help-person from Palm instructed me how to do it, and there is a Palm.com page that has the file to download, and I believe instructions with how to do it.
    Anyways, I'm coming to think that if no one replies to a question or problem, then they don't know how to fix it, or there is no fix for it yet.
    My wife's pixi had the download problem, too - Strangely my Pixi does not.  I'm just hoping that the newest WebOS will fix all bugs and issues.

  • HT201364 Mavericks download from App store updates fails to complete

    Hi,
    Mavericks download from App store fails to complete.  Error message explains system needs firmare update version 1.1.  A check on my updated software list says this update done.  Re-running it confirms firmware update installation succesful.  But Mavericks still says unable to complete download.  All guidance would be much appreciated.  thank you,

    Hi Liz ..
    You're sure your Mac can upgrade to Mavericks?  > OS X Mavericks: System Requirements
    Which OS X is currently installed?
    Click the Apple () menu top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click About This Mac.
    The version is noted there.

  • I have problem in mac store when i try to download app i get note (( app failed to download use the purchases page to try again ))

    i have problem in mac store when i try to download app i get note (( app failed to download use the purchases page to try again ))
    i try to downlod twitter and ccleaner but i can't open the app  ?!?!!!

    It can also be an iTunes issue. Many of us, including myself, are not used to the new interface of iTunes 11 and would find ways to downgrade the available iTunes 11 back to iTunes 10.7 in Mac OS Mavericks. The only issue with downgrading (using AppZapper and Pacifist) is that you will not be able to update/install apps from the App Store after rebooting the Mac.
    If you happen to have downgraded your iTunes in this method, then uninstall the iTunes 10.7 and reinstall iTunes 11 again - the App Store should resume its download/update function without any issue.
    Hope this helps.
