Can't do any updates through Mac App Store for Mountain Lion

I am just wondering if anyone else is having this issue.
I have not seen anything posted around the internet, but when I try to check for a Software Update by using Apple Menu -> Software Update it tries to connect to the App Store and then says it is unavailable at this time, and I am using my schools wifi network, when I use my phone as a hotspot, it just tells me it can't connect to the App Store.
Any ideas?

The servers may be busy. It happens.

  • Just installing a few updates from the Mac App Store for mountain lion on my 2010 MacBook Pro, during this it made a noise and then the screen and keyboard went off, like it is off. What happened, is it off...or should I just wait it out?

    What kind of noise?
    The only things I can think of that make noise are fans and disks. Fans usually will not cause the computer to shutdown as you describe. My guess is your disk drive died. I hope you made a backup prior to start the ungrade.

  • HP printer updates through Mac App Store

    Hello! I have a HP Photosmart 6520 printer since last week. I've done a wi-fi installation following the steps of the HP software that was with the printer. The last (and only) update has been via the touch screen of the printer itself because the Mac App Store didn't show any update. I'd like the next updates to be via the Mac App Store. How can I do? Should I re-install the printer through System Preferences > Printers and Scanners instead of through the HP software?
    (Just to be clear, I'm talking about this: OS X: Printer and scanner software available for download - Apple Support)

    You can get drivers directly from the manufacturer.

  • HT203425 Cannot sign into Mac App Store in Mountain Lion

    When I initiate an update download through Software Update in Mac OS X 10.8.5, or when I try to log into the Mac App Store, after entering my account information the sign-in dialog box just sits there and the action icon spins, but nothing happens ... even after a very long time.  Bug in Mac OS?  Or something peculiar about account setup and accessing?  This is an amazingly persistent problem and is reventing software updates.  Any fixes?

    Create a test admin user account on your Mac, sign into the account and see if the Mac App Store issues follows you there.

  • How to reinstall Mac App Store on Mountain Lion?

    Hi,
    after update to Mac OSX Mountain Lion I was not able to run App Store (it was still showing message "connection failed")...So I thought it was clever to uninstall it (with AppDelete) and then download it somehow and install it again. It wasn't.
    I had even other small issues. Then I found out I can download the last update directly from Apple.com (OSXUpdCombo10.8.2) and it of course didn`t install App Store on my Mac. I also tried some geek stuff with Pacifist app and older combo updates..still not working.
    I'm not IT talent...so PLEASE HELP ME.

  • Am I qualify to join Mountain Lion if I purchased Lion through Mac App Store lately in early July

    I purchased the Mac OS X Lion through Mac App Store in early July. Am I qualify to join the Up-to-date program for Mountain Lion? If yes, how is this be done?

    No you are only qualified for an update when you bought a mac that doesnt include mountain lion. Buying the older version OS X lion does not fall into that category.
    From apple website :
    If you recently bought a new Mac that doesn’t include OS X Mountain Lion, you can upgrade for free from the Mac App Store. You may qualify for the Up-to-Date Program if you bought your Mac from Apple or an Apple Authorized Reseller on or after June 11, 2012.

  • IPhoto 9.2.1 update from Mac App Store will not update from 9.1.5

    I downloaded the iPhoto 9.2.1 update from Mac App Store.
    When I try to update from 9.1.5 to 9.2.1, I get the message: "The version of iPhoto installed on this Mac must be updated through the Mac App Store."
    Since the Mac App Store is where I downloaded the update from, I don't know how exactly to proceed.
    Any suggestions?

    Terence and Peter,
    I have iPhoto 9.1.5 which was installed on my iMac that I received November, 2011.
    My wife has the 9.2.1 version of iPhoto on her MacBook Pro which she bought months before I bought my iMac.
    My iPhoto library opens fine in 9.1.5 on my iMac but will not open the copy of her iPhoto library that I copied to my iMac. We have two libraries and I want the same one she has instead of two separate libraries.
    I went to the Mac App Store and downloaded iPhoto9.2.1 Update.dmg to my desktop.
    I then opened the .dmg and clicked on the iPhoto9.2.1Update.pkg.
    The install iPhoto Update window started to open briefly before the Alert message "The version of iPhoto installed on this Mac must be updated through the Mac App Store. Check the Mac App Store to see if an update is available" appeared.
    I checked the MAS and found this link and this is what I downloaded: http://support.apple.com/downloads#iPhoto%209.2.1

  • How do i update my Mac App store bought Photoshop Elements?

    How do i update my Mac App store bought Photoshop Elements 9? Adobe says Apple handles updates, no updates were ever issued via App Store. Manual downloads on adobe.com results in Patch not compatible on both a security/bug fix update to PE9 and Camera Raw 6.5 update that adds more supported cameras.
    All together, it means i have 80$ of useless software that doesn't support new camera models. Not happy.

    For some reason, Adobe pulled Photoshop Elements 9 from the Mac App Store. It may be related to the fact they released version 11 just 6 days ago? (Note that I'm checking right now and in the US app store - other county app stores may differ.)
    In any case, because it is no longer existing, you won't be able to get any future updates. If I were you, I'd contact Adobe and specifically ask why they removed the app from the App Store, preventing their users from downloading any updates in the future.

    Hello JohnnyChin95,
    You absolutely can just reinstall OS X Mavericks without having to erase and install. The steps to do that are almost the same as the only thing you do differently is that you do not go to Disk Utility to erase the drive. Just go to the Reinstall OS X option and pick your Hard Drive and follow the on screen instructions to get it going. Check out the article below for the step by step process.

  • I bought The Djay app, for iPad, but I can't download it on the Mac App Store, whitout having to pay the 20$ why is that?

    I bought The Djay app, for iPad, but I can't download it on the Mac App Store, whitout having to pay the 20$ why is that

    Because the developer needs to create and maintain the two versions separately and has chosen to charge for the Mac OS X version.
