Error 8003 & App store updates

Hi, recently upgraded to Mountain Lion on my iMac (mid 2007).
I did experience a crash soon after and had to use disk repair which found an issue with 'volumes' but then usesed the Apple recovery site to launch disk repair and repaired the volumes successfully. Not a great start though
Since then I seem to have an issue with 3 sepaarte areas which I assume are connected:
Updating iTunes Apps which returns error 8003
Updating iMac programmes (iPhoto) via App store and purchasing new apps which returned an error messahe 'use the purchase page to try again' which is exactly what i was doing
Signing into some secure websites on any browser.  I enter login details the page seems to refersh but nothing happens
Steps taken so far:
Reinstalled Mountain Lion - no change
Reset Safafri - no change
Rebooted cable modem - no change
Any suggestions?
Thanks in antiticpation!

Reboot solved it.  Jeez...

  • Error in App Store updates (can't see iTunes 11.1.4)

    Hi,
    I can't get the latest iTunes update.  My work iMac (2010) had no problem with this.
    My home iMac (late 2012), tells me iTunes has an update when I do 'Check for Updates' in iTunes.  But, when it brings up the App Store, it's not there.
    Also, I see this error once in a while:  The operation couldn’t be completed. (NSURLErrorDomain error -1012.)
    Any ideas?
    Regards, Patrick

    Reboot solved it.  Jeez...

  • HT1338 Error 103 App Store Update Mountain Lion

    I keep getting "error 103" when trying to install the iPhoto and iMovie update that comes up
    on the App Store as soon as you upgrade to Mountain Lion (from Lion on a MBP mid-2009).
    How can I fix this?
    Thanks.

    I had the same problem, which may arise from having multiple "stacked" updates available—Mountain Lion 10.8.1, iMovie, and iPhoto.
    This resolved it for me:
    1.     Under Software Update, click "Show updates."
    2.     In the update window, click "More ...", which shows all updates available (in my case 3), and lets you install them seprately;
    3.     Install the 10.8.1 one first, letting the computer restart;
    4.     Repeat the process to install the remaining ones.
    After you install 10.8.1, you may be able to install the remaining ones together, but I did them separately. Each of them is a long download.

  • After migrating, -1202 errors and App Store/Update doesn't work

    After migrating my 2008 MacBook Air to an MacBook Air media 2012, everything went wrong. Biggest problems: no synchronisation with mail and -1202 in iTunes and an endless spinning wheel in the App Store and Software update. Thrown my prefs away already. It has something to do with accounts and keychain I think, but can't find it...

  • I cannot update my system, error in app store

    I cannot update system to mountain lion, 'an error in app store, please try again. (13)'

    Try deleting the cache, cookies, and preferences associated with the App Store.
    Quit the App Store if it's open.
    Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type this exactly as you see it here:
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/Cache.db
    Click Go
    Move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Now here:
    ~/Library/Preferences
    Click Go
    Move these files from the Preferences folder to the Trash.
    com.apple.appstore.plist
    com.apple.storeagent.pllist
    Now here:
    ~/Library/Cookies
    Click Go
    Move the com.apple.appstore.plist file from the Cookies folder to the Trash.
    Empty the Trash, try the App Store.
    If you continue to have problems, if you have anti virus software installed, disable that before trying to upgrade.
    And try turning off the Firewall in System Preferences > Security (or Security & Privacy) > Firewall

  • HT1338 App Store updates:  Repeated Error message saying I must sign in, though I already did.  , I click on update, Error message that I need to sign in to the same account I already signed in.

    App Store updates:  I sign in, my password is accepted, I click on update, and still get the error message that I need to sign in to the same account I already signed in at.  What do I have to do to get my app updates?

    Please try each of the following steps you haven't already taken, until the issue is resolved. After each step, relaunch the App Store and try again.
    1. Follow the instructions in the Apple Support article linked below:
    Mac App Store: Cannot update App Store purchases or updates do not seem available
    2. If any App Store purchases were made under a different Apple ID, or if the bundled iLife applications were accepted under a different ID, sign in to the App Store with that ID to update.
    3. Alternatively, delete the probem applications and re-download them with the ID you're using now. If you haven't already purchased them with that ID, you'll have to do that first, because purchases can't be transferred from one account to another.
    4. Select the Purchased tab in the App Store window. If you see an item in the list marked "You have 3 apps to accept," click Accept.
    5. Triple-click the line below to select it:
    /Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/adoption.plist
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu. A Finder window may open with a file selected. If it does, delete the selected file. You may be prompted for your login password.
    Then repeat step 4.
    6. Select
    Store ▹ View My Account
    from the App Store menu bar, then select View hidden purchases. If you're trying to update any hidden purchases, unhide them.
    7. Launch iTunes and select
    Store ▹ Authorize This Computer
    from the menu bar.
    8. If you've moved any App Store apps out of the applications folder, or into a subfolder, put them back. Never move or copy those applications.
    9. Contact Account and Billing Support on this page:

  • Why does the App Store updates finish with (NSURLErrorDomain error 1 1012.)

    Why does the Mac App Store updates finish with (NSURLErrorDomain error 1 1012.) rather than ever finding any updates?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and  Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • App store updates I get an error that says "cannot connect to iTunes Store"

    On my iphone under the App store updates, I get an error that says "cannot connect to iTunes Store"

    Thanks for responding turingtest2 - I finally worked it out (no thanks to Apple!) - I am in South Africa at the moment and availability of content here is very limited (it seems) according to the bloggers - when I looked there is a tiny faint grey note at the bottom of http://www.apple.com/za/itunes/download ...
    it seems to pick up South Africa and the UK - in fact I have set up an alternative UK apple ID so I suppose it sees my ipad, checks my "accounts" and constructs the note accordingly?  Weird. 
    It would have been REALLY helpful to have a clear indication of content availability when setting up the South African account.  I have found the several places where the experts explain how to work around this problem with fake US addresses and voucher payments.  I don't want to do that. 
    I have to say that my limited experience with iTunes and Apple over three years (previously on PC/Windows) is way below what I would expect from Apple inc ... this incident must have wasted four hours of my life ...

  • HT1222 update to server error in App Store

    I recently upgraded to OS X Mavericks 10.9.5 on mac mini and now my app store update will not connect to server.  How do I fix this? Can I go back to the previous version?

    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. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    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 one of the actions that you're having trouble with. 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.

  • "err = -43" when downloading app store updates

    Help,
    I added a NAS a few months ago, and use that to store my iTunes library. Since then, whenever I have app store updates, I usually get ~50-75% rate of receiving an error message when auto-downloading updates. The process runs through, but many of the apps receive this error, and many other apps go through the entire downloading process, but iTunes still shows them as needing updates afterward, requiring another full download.
    I'm fairly certain this has to do with my NAS, but am hoping someone can help me understand what settings/configuration could help to minimize the occurrence of this issue.

    Try deleting the partial cached downloads in the iTunes media folder.
    That error is outlined here -> iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting
    "Error -50," "-5000," "8003," "8008," or "-42023"
    These alerts occur due to timeouts or conflicts trying to write a file during download.
    If you encounter this issue while accessing iTunes Store:
    See iTunes 9: "One Moment Please" or "Error (-50)" message when accessing iTunes Store
    If you encounter this issue while while downloading something from the iTunes Store:
    Delete your iTunes Downloads folder, located in:
    Mac OS X:
  ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Downloads   Note: "iTunes Media" may appear as "iTunes Music. Also, the tilde (~)  refers to your Home directory.
    Windows  Vista:
  \Users\username\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Downloads\
    Windows  7:
  \Users\username\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Downloads\
    Windows  XP:
  \Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My  Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Downloads\
    After locating your iTunes Downloads folder:
    Quit iTunes.
    Delete the Downloads folder on your computer.
    Open iTunes.
    Choose Store > Check for Available Downloads.
    Enter your account name and password.

  • Mac App Store update: right Apple ID but wrong user account

    My Mac App Store updates get associated to the wrong user account but the correct Apple ID.
    I live in Germany and have an iMac and a MacBook Pro, both purchased under Snow Leopard and now running Lion 10.7.2. Just after upgrading to Lion I "purchased" a free App (BibleReader 5.0.0). This morning I logged into my wife's user account on the MacBook Pro, and the App Store icon flagged an update. I switched to my user account and was surprised to see that the update wasn't flagged there. By listing my purchases I did suceed in finding an "update" button for BibleReader, but pressing it resulted in a (German) error message whch translates as "An update is available for another account. Please log in with the account you used to purchase the App". But that is what I had just done.
    Intrigued I went back to my wife's user account. By logging onto the Mac App Store with my Apple ID from my wife's user account I did manage to update the app. Later at work I got the same error message on the iMac. But this time the only other user account on the machine belongs to Computing Services: I don't have their password and I ought not to use admin rights to gain access to their account. So I can't perform the upgrade on the iMac.
    All family iTunes / App Store purchases are via my main Apple ID. My wife's user account on the MacBook Pro only exists so that I can manually synchronise our iCloud address books (she has an iPad).
    Any ideas?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    All the applications you purchase on the App Store are registered to your Apple ID, so you have to use your Apple ID to update them, or you have to purchase those applications again using the Apple ID they are using on that computer, so they will be able to update them

  • HT204152 I am unable to update my App  store Updations. the reason being billing problem asking to update payment method.many times i updated my credit card details but refusing from the system .how can i update my app store updations like  Face book etc.

    I am unable to update my App  store Updations. the reason being billing problem asking to update payment method.Many a  times i updated my credit card details but refusing from the system .how can i update my app store updations like  Face book etc....Using ! phone 6plus  .IOS8.3

    What do you mean by 'refusing from the system', if you are getting an error message then what does it say ?
    For a credit card to have a chance of being accepted it needs to be registered to the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, and have been issued by a bank in the country where you and your iTunes account are. If it is and if you are getting a 'declined' message then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes Support (these are user-to-user forums) and see if they know why it's being declined : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
    If when trying to download you are getting a message about a 'problem with a previous purchase' then that implies that iTunes wasn't able to collect the money for your last purchase. If that is the case then you won't be able to download anything else (including app updates) until you've paid off what you owe : Pay an unpaid balance in the iTunes Store - Apple Support
    If you aren't getting the 'problem with a previous purchase' message then try logging into your account (not when trying to download something) and see if you get the 'none' option so that you can remove the card's details and be able to download updates to your apps : Change or remove your payment information from your iTunes Store account (Apple ID) - Apple Support

  • App Store can no longer be opened.  Immediate crash and error message "App Store can not be opened because of a problem"

    App Store won't open, error message "App Store can not be opened because of a problem".  I haven't been able to update anything for a week or so.  I have used Disk Utility, Drive Genius, deleting the .plist, all to no avail.  My Mac Mail hasn't worked since the upgrade to Mavericks.  Mavericks can't see my LaCie Cloudbox.  Can any of these be solved by me? 

    I have the same error "XXXX App cannot be opened because of a problem". And I also cannot open iTunes and get the error "This copy of iTunes is corrupted or is not installed correctly.  Please reinstall iTunes."
    Only Apple apps seem to be at issue here...
    Repairing Permissions did not fix this.
    I noticed this after the last Software update. Is there no fix other than re-installing?
    Not happy that an Apple software update killed all my apps...

  • Mac App Store Updates won't load

    My problem is that the Mac App Store shows several newer versions of Apps I own in the "Updates" section. Once I try downloading them an error will be displayed every time. Buying or loading new apps works just fine. Loading Updates in the iTunes store works as well. I only have trouble with Mac App Store updates. Any idea what this could be?
    The error message says:
    "Die angeforderte URL wurde auf diesem Server nicht gefunden."
    "The requested URL could not be found on this server."
    Thanks for your help. It's driving me mad.

    I am having the same problem. So far, for me, Apple had no solution to it. Try to download the updates using a different network environment. I only have the above mentioned problem when I am online with my macbook using the hotspot (tethering) option of my iPhone. My iPhone is connected via USB. If I use a different network via ETHERNET, the update works fine.
    If you find a solution to this, please let me know:
    Macbook Pro 17""
    OSX Lion.
    IPhone 3GS
