Can not connect to mac app store

I recently upgraded to Mountain Lion on my early 2008 MacBook Pro. Now, each time I go to the App Store, it either displays can not connect to the Mac App Store, or if it does, the store is very slow and I can not download any apps. I'm not sure why this is happening. Any thoughts?

Hey sanchocan,
If you find that you are unable to connect to the Mac App Store, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
Can't connect to the iTunes Store - Apple Support
Specifically the sections titled Troubleshoot issues on a Mac and Learn more.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Be well,

Can not connect to the app store

Hi all,
I hope one will be able to give me more help than the apple support team.
I've installed the update on my two computers.
On the IMac it is working fine in several account.
On my MacBook Pro, the app is stuck on"Can not connect to the app store".
I've tried the suggestions of the help menu, and from some discussions. I even reinstalled the ocmbo update.
Nothing happens.
If somebody has some clue?
Thanks in advance.

HI and welcome...
Download and install the v10.6.6 combo update available here.
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1349
Then repair permissions.
Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done.
If you see any warnings re: SUID messages, they can be safely ignored, information here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1448?viewlocale=en_US

Help...
I can not open the mac app store in any way from my mac book pro
please help

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

I can not connect to the app store using my iphone 5

I can not connect to the app store using my iphone 5. When I first got it I was able to-but not since???

Can't connect to Mac App Store

I dumped my app store app by mistake, how do I replace it?

I was having this same issue.
After upgrading my early 2010 iMac to Mountain Lion, I found several issues. I couldn't connect to the app store, finder kept freezing and would require relaunch, could not connect to itunes, safari crashed upon every attempt to use, etc. So I attempted to update my software, yet with the app store failing to function, I couldn't.
I verified and repaired my disk and permissions through the disk utility.
Yet I still could not connect to the app store or itunes. I found it referenced somewhere that Keychain First Aid could potentially resolve the issue. That has thus far resolved the issue for me.
Applications > Utilities > Keychain Access
In the menu, under Keychain Access, select Keychain First Aid.
Verify, and then repair.
Hope this helps!

Can't connect to Mac App Store after upgrade to OSX 10.9

After upgrading to Mavericks, I cannot log into the Mac App store to update/purchase the apps on my MacBook Pro with Retina. I have two Apple ID's. With one I can connect to the Mac App Store. When I use the other ID it just hangs at the login box and does nothing. I need to use both ID's as I have software updates for both. Thanks for your assistance.

Post subject: NSURLErrorDomain error -1100 in OS X 10.8
If you check for software updates using the App Store in OS X 10.8 and get "NSURLErrorDomain error -1100" the problem may be with your Software Update preferences. This is particularly likely if you were using a custom Apple Software Update server. To solve the problem, quit the App Store, move the following two files (if present) to the trash, restart, and only then rerun App Store updates:
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist.lockfile

Not connecting to the app store

I can not connect to the app store!
Trying to update apps but it just hangs, with no way to continue.
This is a wifi only ipad.

Usually it's because you are not making internet connection via wifi.
Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
