Can't update iTunes via App Store

Launch iTunes, it'll say that there's a new version to download. Clicks download, opens up App Store but no, no iTunes there. Only happens with Yosemite, never happened before in Mavericks. Sure, I can just download the latest iTunes from https://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ but it's such a hassle. Why is this happening and is there a way for me to fix it?

Anyone?

Can't update iPhoto via App Store

I've tried updating iPhoto via App store, and it tells me to sign into the account I used to purchase it. I never purchased iPhoto. It came with my Mac, and I remember clicking "accept purchases" when I was setting it up. Now this button disappeared, and I can't update any of the iLife apps. Ironically, I can't even buy a new iPhoto, because the App Store says it is installed, but it does not appear in my purchases list. Tried reinstalling Lion and it tells me that my ID was not used to purchase iOS X Lion. I don't want to call Apple, since they charge me for calls I make. What can I do?

You need to contact App Store support. They are the only people who can help you with this. There's a link on the right hand side of the App Store window

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.

I can not update my installed apps from the App Store Update page. I can individually update from the App Store Purchased page. I tried a soft reset but still unable. Any suggestions?

You are doing all that you cn do right now other than to update the apps in iTunes on your computer and sync them to the iPad.
There has been a problem with the App Store updates tab for a few days now and we are all waiting for Apple to fix it.
Look at all of the discussions on the iPad forum that are talking about this right now.

Hi,
Launch iTunes. From the menu bar click Store / View My Account then click Edit Payment Information. Make sure the Security code is available the click Done.
Then from the menu bar click iTunes / Preferences then select the Advanced tab. Click Reset cache.
Try updating or installing apps. If you still have problems, follow the instructions here for Restoring your iPad

HT204088 i can not open itunes and app store in settings on my ipad mini

I cannot open my Itunes or App store on my ipad mini so I am unable to sign in to apple

iOS Reset -
Try a reset. Press & hold the Power and Home buttons simultaneously, ignoring the red power off slider, until the Apple logo appears. Then release both buttons. This should not affect any content on the iPad, it is similar to rebooting your computer.

Can't update my Mac App Store applications

I bought my Mac when my Apple account was set to USA and installed some apps like XCode, Adobe Revel, Twitter, Amazon Kindle, Touchgrind, iPhoto, etc. Later I changed my account's country to where I live now and where my credit card is from now to buy Pages. Now I can't update my applications and my purchased list is empty, even after uninstalling the applications and installing them again.
Imagine that I won't be able to update Xcode again, huge problem for iOS development. I'm think I'll do a complete reinstall using OS X Lion recovery but I'm afraid that I will have to buy iPhoto, iMovie, GarageBand and FaceTime even if they are free with every new Mac.
Is there any solution? Will I lose my free iLife apps doing a reinstall?
I already contacted Apple support and they are very good in apologizing.
Thanks!

The issue is that your credit or debit card credentials must be associated with the same country where you reside.
"Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location."
From here > The Complete Guide to Using the iTunes Store | iLounge Article
Sorry, but you won't be able to update any apps purchased using a different credit or debit card account from another country.
Is there any solution? Will I lose my free iLife apps doing a reinstall?
They will probably reinsstall but you won't be able to download updates since they were purchased from another country.

Can't update software through app store, since Feb. Says no updates available. Error says server with specified hostname not available.

Can't update any software or apps through appstore. Updated Itunes after several months by download, install. Using my own Macbook on my network, never had this problem. Re-installed Mountain Lion. Removed file softwareupdate.plist from Library preferences. Repaired disks and permissions. Any ideas? seems like a small issue, but this is pretty serious going forward.

Please test after each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved. Back up all data before making any changes. Keep in mind that no one here represents Apple or can help with customer-service issues.
Step 1
A purchased app can only be updated by signing in to the App Store with the same Apple ID that was originally used to buy it. There's no way around that limitation, which also applies to free apps. If you can't sign in with the buyer's ID, delete the app and reinstall it. You'll have to pay for it again, if applicable.
Step 2
From the App Store menu bar, select
Store ▹ View My Account
Enter your Apple ID password at the prompt. At the lower right corner of the window that opens, click the Reset button. Close the window.

Peace, Clyde

I can log into iTunes and App Store but NOT iMessage. What gives?

I'm currently using Wifi with my 3rd gen iPad. iOS 6.0.1. I'm not home so I don't have access to my iMac (actually currently at 30k ft somewhere over Virginia :) ).
Anyway, I can log into iTunes, access the App Store, sign out of those, log back in. No prob. I used my appleID and pass to write this message. But I cannot get into Imessage, and I can't figure it out!
I get an error saying: "could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again." If I try to make a new appleID, imessage thinks and thinks...nothing happens.
This isn't a new issue, it's been like this for quite a while, since upgrading to iOS 6 months ago. How can I get into imessage on my ipad? For what it's worth, it works fine on my iPhone.
Would appreciate any help!

Can't open iTunes or App Store on my ipad2

iTunes when finally opens it shows only pics and txts, as if I lost the configuration some how... The same happens if I open facebook using safari...
My app store won't even open...
Please help me!!!
I'm totally new to apple products.
Right now I'm trying to download the new version of the iTunes on my pc and hoping that syncing will do it... I don't know...
HELP HELP HELP!!!!!!

It's hard to know what you're seeing, so please take a screen shot of what you see when you open iTunes. To take a screen shot, with the page you are referring to, touch the home and power button at the same time for a moment and you'll hear a shutter sound like a camera. The screen shot will be stored in your Photos Album, which you can either sync back to your computer, or email to your computer, so you can use the camera icon in your post to attach it. You should know that iTunes on your iPad, will not look like iTunes on your computer. On iPad, it is a store, plain and simple. You can't access your iTunes libraries (music, videos, books, etc). You can just purchase from the app.
You said your App Store won't open on your iPad. Are you connected to the internet when trying to open it? It does require intenet connection.
For Facebook, using it in Safari is not a good solution. Go to the App Store and download either the Facebook app directly or one of the 3rd party facebook apps available. The actual app is not optimized to fill the entire screen, but Facebook has announced they will have an iPad version out any day now.
I'm sure we can help you here. Take a deep breath and know there are a lot of us users here who enjoy helping people out.

Updating software via App Store

When I try to update software through the App Store application it automatically populates the Apple ID with a previous owner for my computer. It will not allow me to enter in my apple ID. How do I remove the previous owner's information from my computer?

You'll need to use the Recovery system and use Disk Uitlity found on the start screen of the Recovery system, Mac OS X Utilities screen, to repartition the drive as one partition and then reinstall Mac OS X clean and fresh.
Whatever apps are now on that system aren't yours. They are the previous owners and can't be transferred to you.

I can't get iTunes and app store to download

Everything works on my iPad just can't get any apps to download and no podcast also

You can't download apps...
Tap Settings > Store
Try toggling Apps off then back on.
If that doesn't help...
Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
Then restart your iPad.
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
