Can't upgrade iPhone apps because store says they are "no longer available"

I checked for application updates for my iPhone in iTunes and a couple apps show up, but when I click "Download All Free Updates" iTunes gives an error: "the item you tried to buy is no longer available"
This makes no sense -- I tracked it down to two apps, "Feeds" and "SysMon" but here is what is weird. Both of those apps show new versions in the app store just by manually searching for them, there are clearly new versions in the store, and iTunes is telling me this, but I can't download them. Has anyone else seen this when trying to update applications?

Have you tried clicking the update buttons on each app separately? I have occasionally gotten some weird errors when using the "all available updates" button.

  • Why do all of my previously purchased app say they are no longer available?

    Each time I try to download a previously purchased app, a message says it is no longer available.  It even happens with my movies I've purchased.  Is iCloud down or something?

    There currently appears to be a problem with the iTunes Store. Try again tomorrow.

    ?  Why does my Photoshop PS2 open on my Mac Book Pro OS 10.6.8 Intel Core 2 Processor but not on my just purchased Mac Book Pro OS 10.7.3? On my new machine I get a message saying "You can't open Photoshop CS2 because Power PC applications are no longer supported". I don't have a Power PC on either machine and this App does run on the older machine with an Intel processor. benrusy

    This is not new.  The fact that Mac OS no longer supports PowerPC applications starting with OS X Lion has been known for over a year now.  You'll need to upgrade to the latest version of Photoshop

    The only viable solution is to upgrade to the latest versions of the PPC legacy software that will run under Mavericks.
    Except for the other viable solution:
    If you are unable or unwilling to upgrade to a version of Filemaker that runs natively under Mavercks, you can run your existing version of Filemaker by installing Snow Leopard Server into Parallels:

    Reboot your router. You by chance dont have a netgear N300 WNR2000 router do you? I had one of those and would lose wifi on it constantly, Switched to a Cisco wifi router and it works much better.

    Yes. You can set the payment method to "None" once you log into iTunes on your PC/Mac. I have it set up this way.

  • Since upgrading to 6 on my iphone, my notes disappear. They are no longer in the cloud. Also disappear during typing! What's happening?

    So you have business contacts that were lost... do you not have these on a Database in some shape or form? Sounds like you need to invest in a RAID1 backup setup for your computer so you dont have this issue in the future.
    As for repairing your problem, sounds like you are going to need to start from scratch at this point or if the data is still on your phone look into a program that can take the information from the phone onto iTunes.

  • HT1689 I purchased TV shows, I was billed for them, but they won't play on my Macbook because it says they are a certain HD that doesn't work - I am trying to find a way to return the shows or buy them in the right format

    I purchased TV shows, I was billed for them, but they won't play on my Macbook because it says they are a certain HD that doesn't work - I am trying to find a way to return the shows or buy them in the right format

    I am using MAC OSx 10.5.8 (9L31a) as my operation system.  The TV says "No signal.  Check connected device's power, cable connection and source selection."  Seems to me that that goes in hand with what the Samsung tech said about the Mac needing to be forces to use the external display.  But how do I do that?

  • HT201364 I am trying to upgrade to OS X Mavericks but when I click on download it does nothing.  I can't load most apps because it says that I don't have the latest version.  Help! what can I do?

    I am trying to upgrade to OS X Mavericks but when I click on download, nothing happens.  It shows as purchased but nothing is happening.  I have the MacBook Pro Late 2011 model.  I am unable to load any new apps because it says that I don't have the latest OS version.  Does anyone have any suggestions?  I would appreciate it! Thanks

    I installed 'Mavericks' on my Macbook Pro and am sorry I did !
    It wiped my Mac's hard drive totally clean!
    A technician here was able to reload the original OS but all my pictures, files and contacts were
    sent God knows where !
    I should have done a back up, so I learned my lesson the hard way !
    What really annoyed me was that this is an Apple program, so I wrongly assumed it would be a safe download.
    Wrong !
    He told me that others in our small town had experienced the same problem, and since we live in a small community of about 6000, I wonder how many others have had this problem in more populated centers ?
    Everything is thankfully up and running again ( at great expense in time and money )  but I will exercise more jurisprudence in future offers for any upgrades!

  • I have been trying to put music I bought on I tunes on my Samsung Note 2 phone but it won't play.I try to convert them to mp3 format so I can play them on my phone but it won't let me convert them because it says they are protected. Can anybody help me?

    I have been trying to put music I bought on Itunes on my Samsung Note 2 but my media player won't play m4p files so I tried to convert the files to mp3 but I couldn't, because a message says they are protected files. I then tried downloading different media player apps to see if they would play them but had no success.Can anybody help with a solution to this problem?

    First quit iTunes and look in your iTunes folder.
    On Windows, the iTunes folder is in your My Music folder.
    On Mac, the iTunes folder is in your Music folder.
    Follow this path:    iTunes > iTunes Media > Music >
    Here there should be all your music folders. Open the folders containing the music that is not playing. Right click "get info" (mac) or right click "properties" (windows).
    This window will tell you the file type. iTunes will play music in AAC, MP3, and Lossless, etc.
    If the files are .wma you will need to convert them into ACC or MP3 format for it to play on an iPod. In iTunes, highlight the tracks that you want to convert, then on the menu bar, Advanced > Create AAC/MP3 version and the tracks will convert. Delete the old files.
    If the file extenstion is anything like .exe .txt .rar  then you don't have an audio file.

  • I am trying to download words with friends app and it says it is no longer available from itunes.  I had already downloaded it and did a update in my I phone 4 and it is still not letting me download it?

    I am trying to download words with friends and itunes is saying it is no longer available for purchase.  What is going on??I

    First you need to research all the problems people are having with the higher OSX versions, & make sure you have a bootable clone of what you have just in case.
    then you must get 10.6 if they still have it, install it & update to 10.6.8 so you have the App Store to buy & download the huge 10.8 Installer.
    Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
    General requirements
       * Mac computer with an Intel processor
        * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
        * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
        * DVD drive for installation
        * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
        * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
    Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...
    http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
    It's been pulled from the online store & Apple Stores, so you have to call Apple to buy it, last I heard.
    Call Apple Sales...in the US: 1-800-MY-APPLE. Or Support... 1-800-275-2273

  • Why do I receive the message on my Macintosh,"You can't open the application because Power PC applications are no longer accepted"?". At one time the software worked so I'm confused.

    Why do I receive the message on my Macintosh,"You can't open the (name of application) application because Power PC applications are no longer accepted"?" At one time the Mac software worked so I'm confused. Fore example I tried to open Concorder Pro snd it gave me the message.

    From a recent post I answered for a similar question about the lack of PowerPC app support in Mt. Lion:
    Unfortunately you got caught up in the minor miracle of Rosetta.  Originally licensed by Apple when it migrated from the PowerPC CPU platform that it had used from the mid-1990's until the Intel CPU platform in 2006, Rosetta allowed Mac users to continue to use their library of PPC software transparently in emulation.
    However, Apple's license to continue to use this technology expired with new releases of OS X commencing with Lion (and now Mountain Lion).  While educational efforts have been made over the last 6 years, the fact is that Rosetta was SO successful that many users were caught unaware UNTIL they upgraded to Lion or Mountain Lion.
    Workarounds:
    1. If your Mac will support it, restore OS X Snow Leopard;
    2.  If your Mac will support it, partition your hard drive or add an external hard drive and install Snow Leopard into it and use the "dual-boot" method to choose between your PowerPC software or Lion/Mt. Lion;
    3.  Upgrade your software to Intel compatible versions if they are available, or find alternative software that will open your data files, modify them and save them;
    4.  Install Snow Leopard Server (with Rosetta) into Parallels or VMWare Fusion.  Apple is now selling Snow Leopard Server for only $19.99 + sales tax & shipping; call 1.800.MYAPPLE (1.800.692.7753).    This solution will give you concurrent use of your PowerPC applications and access to Lion or Mt. Lion.

  • I can't purchase / download apps because it says there's an issue with previous purchase. How can I fix this?

    HHow do I fix this?

    The 'problem with a previous purchase' message implies that iTunes wasn't able to collect the money for your last purchase - until that is paid you won't be able to download anything else from the store, including free items, updates to apps and redownloading past purchases.
    You will have to enter payment details that are accepted by the iTunes validation, or (and if they are available in your country) redeem an iTunes gift card onto your account : Pay an unpaid balance in the iTunes Store - Apple Support
