Clicking the App Store item in the Finder menu does not open the application for one user account.

Although clicking the App Store icon in my Dock works, clicking the App Store . . . selection in the Finder menu doesn't do anything. I created a second user account and the Finder Menu worked as expected.

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 and start typing the name.
The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
          SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
          View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then take an action that isn't working the way you expect. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.

    Easy fix... it's a refresh issue. Sign out and back in with changed name.

  • After upgrade to ios5, none of the apps will load.  Touching an icon does not open the app; it just blinks and returns to the screen.

    Go to the App Stor and download an app- any free app will do, it doesn't matter.
    Doing this usually "resets" your device's "app awareness" and you should be able to run any app with no problem.
    And no, you don't have to keep that free one you just downloaded.  You can delete it if you don't want it.

  • Ince updating my firefox browser whenever i click on an internet link in an email it does not open on firefox although my mac switches to the firefox window as this is my default browser- what to do? Previously this has always worked without a hitch...

    ince updating my firefox browser whenever i click on an internet link in an email it does not open on firefox athough my mac switches to the firefox window as i have this set to be my default browser- what should i do?

    I have the same problem, and I also wondered if Google toolbar has anything to do with it. There GMAIL was set as the default mail application at first. I have removed that setting, but Firefox 4.0.1 continues to use GMAIL instead of Outlook which is my selection for mailto handling.

  • I don't have the Mac App Store on my computer. It's not in my applications.

    I wnated to download the new mountain lion software but I can't get it in the App Store, because there is no App Store on my computer. Can I download it? Is it supposed to be in my applications folder?

    Hi Julia...
    You need to be running v10.6.6 at the least to have access to the App Store.
    Click your Apple menu icon top left in yourr screen. From the drop down menu click: Aboout This Mac
    What version does it say?
    If you are running v10.6.6 or higher, you can upgrade to Lion now but make sure your Mac meets Lion's requiremens.
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory
    OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
    7GB of available space
    Mountain Lion won't be released to the public until sometime this summer and at this time, the requirements are unknown  >  Apple - OS X Mountain Lion

  • In finder, or say anything else such as downloaded files, I have to push open with in order to open the file. If I simply double-click on a document from finder, it does not open.

    Hey guys. I have this problem where when I try to open say a document from finder, I have to push "open with."
    Simply double-clicking does not work. I would greatly appreciate it if anybody could help.
    Another unrelated problem is that when I push to open itunes, it says that it is on a locked disk.
    Thanks

    Select a particular download file. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window.  In the Open With section choose the desired default application from the dropdown menu then click on the Change All button.
    For .dmg files use DiskImageMounter (System/Library/CoreServices/ folder.)
    For .zip files use Archiver - same folder as above - or download TheArchiver - MacUpdate or CNET Downloads.

  • Updated Facebook via the Apps store.  Icon is "grayed" and will not open.  It also will not let me delete, to download again.  Anyone have this problem?

    Updated Facebook via the apps store.  Now, icon is "grayed" & will not open, nor will it let me delete it, so I can re-download.  Has anyone had this problem?

    Do you have another disk or Mac connected that has Pages '09 from the Mac App Store installed? If so, the MAS will "see" it & will report it as installed. Unmount any & all drives, including Time Machine backups, that might have Pages '09 on them & then relaunch the MAS & see if you can download it.

    Thank you for your question:
    In the Firefox > Options menu under Applications, search for "mailto". From there select the action drop down and select the action.
    If you click on the details of the action it should have https://compose.mail.yahoo.com/?To=%s
    This macro should take you to a compose mail if you are logged in.

  • When I click a link in email client (apple mail), it does not open in firefox. I have checked both Firefox and Safari and Firefox is the default browser.

    When clicking a link in either apple mail or even from a word document, nothing happens.

    Try to redo the default browser and make another browser like Safari the default and then let Firefox do it again.
    See:

  • App Store update counter on dock icon does not reset properly

    There's definitely a bug in the App Store for Mac. The update counter does not reset properly. I have purchased only one app so far, and this morning the dock icon indicated a (1) meaning an update was available. I downloaded the update and the ( 1 ) disappeared. When I quit the App Store, the (1) reappeared on the icon in the dock. Now whenever the App Store launches the (1) disappears and whenever the App Store quits it reappears so it always looks like an update is waiting.

    Hi Colin,
    Open a Finder window. Select your Home folder in the Sidebar on the left. Now open the Library folder then the Preferences folder.
    Move the com.apple.dock.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Trash.
    Restart your Mac.

  • In the topmost Firefox menu with File,Edit,View,History,Bookmarks, I can not get the list of bookmarks to display as they did before. The Bookmarks menu does not open up into the list of bookmarks.

    I am running Mac os 10.6.8 and Firefox 6.0.1 on a MacBook Pro and on a desktop Macintosh.
    The large computer displays a list of bookmarks when you click on the uppermost Bookmarks menu.
    The MacBook Pro displays the following when you click on the Bookmarks word in the top menu:
    "Show all Bookmarks, Bookmark this Page, Bookmark all Tabs and an icon with a blue dot next to Bookmarks Toolbar with an arrow to the right and below that it says Unsorted Bookmarks.
    There is no display of the list of bookmarks from which I can chose as I do on the larger desktop macintosh computer.
    How can I get the list of bookmarks to show as a list when I click the Bookmarks menu?

    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Bookmarks_history_and_toolbar_buttons_not_working_-_Firefox
    You can also try to move (delete) the Firefox plist file.<br />
    See [http://www.macfixit.com/article.php?story=20060606082246983 How .plist files become corrupt and troubleshooting the results]
    Go to "Library > Preferences" and remove the plist file for Firefox (org.mozilla.firefox.plist).

  • Finder window does not open when dock icon is clicked

    Hi would like some help
    When I click the finder icon in the dock nothing happens, the only way I can get finder open is to go file>new finder window
    just started doing this 1 day ago ?
    thanks

    Have you got an instance of finder open in another desktop? If you right click on the finder icon you can show all windows, then close any that are open. Failing that relaunch finder, if you click on the Apple in the top menu bar, go to force quit, and select finder, then relaunch it to see if it solves your problem.
    I once had this problem when I had left a finder window open in a connected tv screen, disconnected the tv and had the same problem of not being able to open finder normally.
