Deleted purchased app can't install now

I had purchase Growl and deleted it by mistake. Now my version is behind. I have tried to install it again by clicking the Install button but nothing happens at all when I do that. Any other suggestion as to how I might Growl updated.

Try deleting the files in bold print...
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/Cache.db
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist
~/Library/Cookies/com.apple.appstore.plist (If you see one that says:  com.apple.appstore.plist (corrupt) move that to the Trash as well)
/LIbrary/Preferences/System Configuration/Network.interfaces.plist
Now restart your Mac, launch the App Store.

  • I just purchased the new Nokia windows phone.  How do I delete an app that I installed but really don't want to keep?

    I just purchased the new Nokia windows phone.  How do I delete an app that I installed but don't want to keep?

    You are welcome! I played with the 928 in a Verizon store and really liked it. Besides the great camera and Nokia Maps, I'd be pretty excited about Nokia Music, too. As I understand it, this free app lets you create playlists from its entire music library, which can be stored on your device to listen to any time.
    There are a few members on the WP board who are really knowledgeable about Nokia and WP, so let us know if you have more questions.

  • TS1702 How do you permanently delete purchased apps from itunes?

    How do I permanently delete purchased apps from itunes on my iphone?

    I have spent a good part of my evening trying to figure this out then finally found this page which confirms what I was thinking... It doesn't appear possible! ARHHHH!!! There are loads of posts saying how you can do this, when what they appear to be describing is how to remove the apps from their iphone/ipad and not actually from the list of every app you have ever installed which appears when you go into the "Apps Store" > Updates > Not on this iPhone.
    It would be really nice to be able to remove programs from this list as I am sure I am not the only person who over the years have installed some apps which where not very good and I don't want to be reminded of them or to ever see them again quite frankly.
    I can do this very easily from my Android phone in Google Play which is Google's version of the App Store.
    I think things like this remind me why I prefer the ease of use of my Android phone... Ho hum! Maybe one day some geeks at Apple will realise that this would actually be a really useful thing to be able to do and enable it.

    If I delete an app can I redownload it again?

    Yes...
    How to re download apps from the Mac App Store:
    Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
    Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
    Select which apps you want to re download. Then right or control click where you see Installed  then click Install.
    Make sure and use the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.
    If you inadvertently hid the purchase, follow the instructions here > Mac App Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases
    Then try re downloading.

  • HT4461 how do i install a purchased app that says installed but it's not on mac or iPad?

    how do i install a purchased app that says installed but it's not on mac or iPad?

    An app is considered to be installed if it shows up in a Spotlight search of local volumes. Bring up a search window in the Finder by pressing the key combination command-F. Search This Mac for the name of the application. Delete all copies that are found.

  • Resetting my iPad didn't solve my problem with Bible  1 being kicked out when I tried opening the App. I was told to delete the App and re-install it, but won't that delete EVERYTHING I've done within the App?  Like the highlights and the Notes?

    The problem I'm having with my Bible +1 App wasn't solved by resetting my iPad.  I was told to then delete the App and re-install it, but if I do that, won't that delete EVERYTHING within the App, like all the highlighting and Notes?  And I'm sorry to say, I'm extremely technologically inept - only had this iPad since mid-April and the first piece of computer ANYTHING in well over 15 years with my son - and we never had the InterNet. The reason I'm telling this is, I'm not even sure HOW to re-install an App.  Sorry.

    If the app continually fails to run the delete and renown load might help. But yes, you will lose everything that you have done with the app unless there is some way to back up the info to your computer or another device.
    You might also contact the developer of the app to see if they are aware of the problem and are working on fixing it. The developer info can normally be found in the information on the app provided in the App Store.

  • Deleting purchased apps

    How can I delete purchased apps in my apps store on my iPhone 6

    All iTunes and App store purchases are permanently tie to your Apple Id. You cannot delete them. You can hide them, but only from iTunes on a computer

  • Delete purchased apps (Not hide)

    Is it possible to delete purchased apps from my Apple-ID account, i know they can be hidden, but i´m looking for a way to delete them so they are disassociated from my Apple account?
    At least for the free apps there should be that option.
    Is this possible?

    Okay, so lets try this question then... Is it possible to delete an Apple account, not just disassociate my devices? I guess thats not possible either, just as so many other things when it comes to Apple?

  • TS4036 your ipad's settings have been restored. Your purchased apps and media will now be automatically downloaded

    Upon moving to a new IPad after cracking an older one, the restore was in the works and the following message was displayed on the screen:
    Your ipad's settings have been restored. Your purchased apps and media will now be automatically downloaded
    Unfortunately, there is no touch screen ability.  The message won't allow us to click OK and we can't turn off the iPad to reboot it because that would require a slide to confirm.
    How do we go about resetting it to the point that the touch screen works again?

    Try a Reset...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

  • HT2693 My Pages App will not open after I recently updated it. I'm afraid to lose all my docs if I delete the App and re-install.

    My Pages App will not open after I recently updated it. I'm afraid to lose all my docs if I delete the App and re-install.

    First of all - you are running the proper iOS in order to use the latest version of Pages - correct? You need iOS 6 now.
    If so ....See if this helps. Maybe Pages will open after you try this.
    Quit the Pages app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Or ..... Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    If that didn't help backup and send your files into iTunes with file sharing.
    You could lose all of your files if you delete and reinstall the app. That is precisely why you should backup your iPad and send your files into iTunes using files sharing on the iPad. Do you backup or use file sharing?
    Backup your iPad, send the files from the iPad into iTunes using file sharing and then delete the app and reinstall it.

  • Project spartan error - This app can't install

    I get an error that says This app can't install. Check the store for more info about Project Spartan.
    I'm running Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview Build 10049.

    Hi,
    Meanwhile, you can also test the Project spartan using another user acocunt or create a new user account.
    Project spartan should be installed automatically after you upgraded to preview build 10049, if this issue only happened recently, then I would suggest you return the system to a previous state with restore point and check if it
    can bring back the app.
