Can I reinstall APP STORE app?

My APP STORE icon shows apps needed update but when I press the icon screen goes blank.  Other icons at bottom in this app works, but not the update on right.

Try quitting then restarting the App Store app like this,
Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it wiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then restart the app and see if it works normally.

  • How can I install the proper App Store app to complete my upgrade?

    I have Snow Leopard (10.6.8) installed on my iMac 27 (late 2010) but the app store app is not supported on this version. How can I get the proper app store app for SLP? My goal is to get back to Maverick.
    I was running Maverick just fine but ran out of disk space. I had Best Buy install a Seagate 3TB drive. I reinstalled OS X 10.6.4 from my Install Disk. Then I upgraded the "software upgrades" to get 10.6.8.  Somehow I upgraded the App Store app to a version that is not supported on my current version of 10.6.8.
    I appear to be stuck. Unable to go to App Store to down load Maverick.
    Also, with the new Seagate 3TB drive, the fan runs continuously. Any ideas how I can move forward?

    Regarding your fan issue I believe I am correct in assuming BBY did not install the correct HD. My suggestion is to first do several SMC resets which are designed to help with running fans, carefully read http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964. for information on what a SMC reset addresses. You can find instructions for doing the SMC resets in https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3603. A SMC reset will ONLY help if the correct HD was installed though.
    If the reset does not fix the issue then return the machine to BBY, inquire if the drive they use has heat sensors integrated into the HD they installed and if not then get them to install the correct HD to address the issue.

  • How can I delete an app from launchpad, that doesn't have the little cross in the left top corner. The app isn't an App Store app. The application is also not present anymore in my application's folder in finder.

    How can I delete an app from launchpad, that doesn't have the little cross in the left top corner. The app isn't an App Store app. The application is also not present anymore in my application's folder in finder.
    I tried to use the attached command through TERMINAL :
    sqlite3 ~/Library/Application\ Support/Dock/*.db "DELETE from apps WHERE title='Help';" && killall Dock
    sqlite3: Error: too many options: "DELETE from apps WHERE title='Help';"
    Use -help for a list of options.
    But i didn't work as I got the above error message.

    I'm in the same boat as you -- except that I manage both a school lab (volunteer job) and macs in the enterprise (pay job).  What I think we need is the Education Volume Purchasing Program
    http://www.apple.com/education/volume-purchase-program/faq.html
    Unfortunately this all seems a little rough around the edges -- for example, I have found updates for AppStore apps on the support.apple.com updates download site, but then when I install them via ARD they don't actually update the software.  (The AppStore icons still show as needing the updates, and the version info reports the old version.)  The documentation is also vague about which AppleID to use in which circumstance.  I think they just haven't finished thinking through the implications of the various procedures and policies upon the various kinds of customers.  When we deployed Mountain Lion on the school lab, we made an install usb and went around and installed it on each computer -- and it appears that you are on the honor system as far as paying for all of the licenses that you install.  We did!  But they appear to have no way to enforce it.
    So far, I have only deployed 9 Lion macs in my day job, and our "solution" to the AppStore showing updates problem has been to drag the AppStore icon off of the users' docks so they don't see them!

  • How can I re-download the App Store app?

    It can not be deleted, but can be restricted.

  • How can I get my App Store app back after my daughter deleted it?

    My daughter somehow deleted my App Store app off my iPad. How can I get it back.

    The App Store is not possible to delete.
    Anyway, the easiest way is probably Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout
    If you don't care for that method, you can find the App Store by swiping your home screen from left to right, and typing "App Store" in the search screen.

  • I can no longer find my app store app on my iPad 2

    Is there a way I can get the app store back on my ipad?
    Thanks Paul

    Hi Chrysalie,
    You can't delete the App Store app from your iPad, so it's there somewhere. Check all of your home screens by swiping to the left to make sure you didn't move it to another screen. Also, if you have any apps with multiple apps within them (like Game Center), check to make sure it didn't get moved into there.
    You can also do a spotlight search to access it, but that won't show you where it has gotten off to....
    But if you want to do a spotlight search, from the first home screen swipe to the right, and then type App in the search bar. It should list the App store app below the search bar, and you can access it from there.
    Hope this helps!
    Cheers,

  • I have an app update on my phone through the app store, but i dont have that app and when i hit update it says the item is no longer available for sale,, but i cannot get rid of the little 1 at the corner of the app store app,, how can i get rid of it

    i have an app update on my phone through the app store, but i dont have that app and when i hit update it says the item is no longer available for sale,, but i cannot get rid of the little 1 at the corner of the app store app,, how can i get rid of it,, i have iphone 5

    You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
    Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store notice. For example, if the App Store says you need to update "Twitter," the hacked app may be "Angry Birds" or something else entirely. Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you have to carry out a systematic search.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
    kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
    In the Finder, press the key combination command-F to open a search window, or select
    File ▹ Find
    from the menu bar. In the search window, select
    Search: This Mac
    from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu initially showing Kind. From that menu, select  Other...
    A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select Raw Query and click OK or press return.
    Now there will be a text box to the right of popup menu. Click in that box and paste (command-V).
    The search window will show all the App Store products you've installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
    At least one of the items listed in the search window is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
    Log out and log back in. Test.

  • Accidentally deleted an App Store app.  how can I get the icon back on my home screen?  when I search for it in the App Store it comes up 'open'. thanks.

    accidently deleted an app Store app.  how can I get the icon back on my home screen?  in the app store it comes up 'open' instead of install.

    What happens if you tap on open?
    Remember, if you ever want to find an app quickly, you can slide all the way to the left (iOS 6 and lower) or pull down (iOS 7 and later) to get to an app.
    If you know for certain that you have deleated the app, please try restarting your phone. There are many ways to do this, but the safest way would be to hold down the power button and then slide to power down.
    Once powered down, restart and try to find the icon on your screen. If you still can't find it, go into the App Store and then find the app you were trying to access. It should have an iCloud download symbol since you've purchased it before, rather than saying "install."

  • How can I put the App Store App back on to my macbook? help

    the app store app has been removed from my laptop and I can not figure out how to get it back. Please help???

    There is no Mac App Store on 10.5.6. You need to upgrade the computer to 10.6.3 and then 10.6.6 or higher to get it.

  • Why can't I sign in to the App Store app on my mac?

    Is there anyone who can help me? I have OS 10.7.4 running on a Intel mac tower, I have an Apple account (that works fine for the iTune store, on my iPad), but when I click on the either of the links; Sign In, or Account in the App Store app on my mac nothing happens? I have also tried the same options in the menus but with the same result?
    I had the same problem on Leopard, and bought Lion hopefully to fix the problem, but I still can't sign in...

    To be honest - Apple did a miserable job in designing the user accounts on Apple Store, iTunes app profile, Apple ID profile and Apple discussion groups profile. You can't even change the password in discussion groups. You have to go through "forgot password" to reset it. I tried it once and never received the reset-email. Total misery.
    Anyway, I had the same issue with not being able to sign into Apple Store app. In the end I resolved it by CLIKING on the PURCHASES button in iTunes, then it asked me for password and then I was able to make purchases etc..

  • How can I reinstall the YouTube app?

    How can I reinstall the YouTube app?

    Thanks dave
      This is a mystery. Both YouTube apps have different icons so they're not duplicates.
    One is a picture of an old fashioned television and the other is the YouTube logo.
    The old fashioned TV was able to be disabled in the ipod settings so that must be the one that belongs.
    I'm pretty sure the other one also came with the unit.
    Maybe I should start a thread?

  • HT204266 My child deleted the "app store" app.  How do I get it back or reinstall?

    My child deleted the "app store" app.  How do I get it back or reinstall?  Normally I would go into the app store to get the deleted app...

    You cannot delete the App Store app as it is one of the default apps. Your daughter most likely moved it onto another screen or accidentally moved it on top of another app which creates a folder that contains both apps.
    Swipe to the furthest left screen, the search screen, type in App Store, and you'll find where the App Store is hidden.

  • Can't update iTunes. App Store app says "no updates available"

    Hi Everyone,
    I opened iTunes today and it said there was an update available
    Clicking the button took me to the App Store app, where it said "No Updates Available"
    I had noticed this when the Thunderbolt update came out and it didn't appear either (I thought it wasn't meant for my MBP, but now I know it is). I've repaired the disk, permissions, booted in Safe Mode and still won't show iTunes or the Thunderbolt update. I don't know what else to do.
    Please help.

    Your pictures aren't showing, for some reason.
    Not sure why Software Update isn't doing what it should do, but you could download the iTunes update directly from Apple's downloads pages:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1614
    You could consider re-applying the update to 10.8.3 using the combo, which sometimes fixes odd issues:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1640
    Ensure you have full backup you can restore from before updating.
