Error when writing reviews: "in order to write a customer review for this item you must have purchased or downloaded it first"

I constantly get the error "in order to write a customer review for this item you must have purchased or downloaded it first" when I'm trying to write reviews on my iPhone.  Sometimes I can access iTunes via my PC and write the review on there from the App Store page, but sometimes even that doesn't work.  Even though, at the top of the app's page, it says "downloaded" under the graphic.  I am properly logged into iTunes, using the same email address and password I used to purchase the app.  I don't understand why this is happening, it doesn't make sense.  It started after I updated to iOS5, but I can't find any mention of other people having this problem.  Anyone know anything?

You CAN'T review applications "purchased" using a promo code. Not saying you used a promo code, but if you did, you won't be able to leave a review. If you didn't use a promo code, delete the app in question from your iTunes library, then re-download it. See if you can leave a review now.

  • Unable to review apps ("to review this app, you must have purchased it from the Mac app store)

    I've been having this problem since getting my iMac, about 6-8 months ago.
    I can review apps for about 3-4 hours after buying them; sometimes for up to 12 hours.
    Then it's as if I cross a magic, invisible, and powerfully frustrating barrier - whenever I try to review an app, I get a message saying 'to review this app, you must have purchased it from the Mac App Store.'
    In many ways, the App Store is clearly aware that I HAVE purchased it from the Mac App Store. The button at the top of the screen - the one that would usually say 'purchase' - says 'installed.' I can DL updates. I can, for the first sprinkling of hours, provide (and edit) reviews. However, after this mysterious cutoff, the one thing I can't do is leave a review...
    Mac App Store support have been well-intentioned, but utterly hopeless.
    They started by suggesting I had an 'iTunes error -50', and that I delete / renew my network settings (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1811). I didn't have an iTunes error -50, and the fix didn't work.
    They then suggested that I change my iTunes ID so that it was associated with a new email account. OK, right. Done that. Still no joy.
    They then suggested that I sign out with my iTunes ID, and then sign back in again. Something which I'd already tried repeatedly, with no joy. (I've also tried deauthorising and reauthorising my computer - again with no joy).
    Any other thoughts greatly appreciated...

    Try this....
    In App Store, go to Purchases (top menu). Find the app you want to review, make sure it is marked Installed. Then click on the app from that window. Now try to write a review. This worked for me, but it could also be something I ate.

  • When initially entering a website password FF ASKS "SAVE PW FOR THIS SITE?" I have now CHANGED the website PW, and cannot get FF to "forget" the old PW and then save the new one!

    I changed my GMail password the other day. I now have to type it in every time I access my mail as I cannot get Firefox (v.3.6.3) to ask me "Remember PW for this site?" (as it always AUTOMATICALLY does when FIRST entering a website password). Why does FF not automatically offer the "Save PW?" option AGAIN when one CHANGES the access PW of a site previously visited? Can one "force" a password to be remembered?

    If the name stays the same and you only need to change (update) the stored password then fill the name in the login form and let Firefox fill the wrong password.
    You may have to press the Tab key to fill the password field.
    If you replace the wrong password with the new password then Firefox should offer to store the new password.
    Use the ''Remember Password'' bookmarklet on websites that use "autocomplete=off" to prevent Firefox from saving passwords.
    You can verify that Firefox has stored the new password: Tools > Options > Security: Passwords: "Saved Passwords" > "Show Passwords"
    If that didn't work then remove that name and password and Firefox should offer to save the new password on the next visit or if you refresh the login page.

  • HT3604 Please note that if you download the patch for this software, you will have to change your security settings in order to install it.

    I'm guessing few people use this version of Aperture.  Here's what happened because I use it.  Apple spent several hours with me before I found the link to this software update.
    Then I downloaded the patch.  Then my computer would not install it as security changes needed to be changed from the standard: "only install software from the app store and identified developers."  To install this patch, I needed to change settings to show, "allow applications downloaded from ANYWHERE."
    This surprised me.
    I ordered four books with this software today, spending over thirty dollars for each.  For three of the four, I needed to change the order after it was processed by Apple so that the three gift books would be shipped to relatives instead of to me.  NOTE THAT ADDING OTHER ADDRESSES WITHIN this version of Aperature doesn't change any shipping details in the actual order.
    Since the rep told me the newer version is only about $90, I may spring for it.  Or I might just give up on Aperture entirely and buy ADOBE Lightroom, since this application has been BUGGY.

  • Error when Writing Metadata to Files in Bridge (Mac) but not in Bridge (PC)

    We get an error when writing metadata to files in Bridge (Mac) but not in Bridge (PC). In the same drive and folder, the PC can successfully write a keyword to a file on the PC, where the Mac returns an error. I have researched this at the Adobe Knowledgebase, but their answer seemed to indicate it was a global issue, and we don't see that behavior on the PC.
    The client is a Mac of course, and the server volume is a Windows share volume. The Mac is bound to AD, and the domain\username and username formats have both been tried when logging in, but you receive the error in both.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hi, I'm having the same problem using FreeNAS (which uses Samba and Netatalk in the backend), but I tried with both AFP and SMB on Mavericks and Yosemite, I still have the same issue.  I think it might be a timing issue with how lightroom interact with a slower write delay using network shares.  I suggest you also chime into this thread:  Lightroom 5 can't write metadata to DNG files   I really hope this is resolved as this is impacting my productivity as I moved my workflow to my Macbook with a shared NAS.

  • I/O Error when writing access Log buffer to file. error number: 28

    Hi,
    Oracle OracleAS Web Cache 10.1.2.3.0, Build 10.1.2.3.0 080201 is writing events like this:
    [alert 13215] I/O Error when writing access Log buffer to file. error number: 28
    I've looked for this alert and i've found this description:
    WXE-13215 I/O Error when writing access Log buffer to file. error number: %d
    Severity: alert
    Cause: I/O error happened when OracleAS Web Cache tried to write to the access log file.
    Action: Check the status of access log file. For example, see if the disk is full
    Anybody knows what "error number: 28" stands for? The logs are sended to other server and it seems that the disk size is ok.
    thanks!

    I tested again...it seems LabVIEW doesn't like the way I wrote the measurement files. I attached a set of VIs (ZIP-file) to give you a clue how it was done. When I try to save and read a file containing just plain DBLs from a 1D-Array (see attached file generating VI) it works perfectly well for large file sizes.
    So there might get something messed up by the way LabVIEW saved the measured data. You'll notice, that I (accidentally) left the "prepend array string size" input of "write to binary file" function unwired which means that the size information will be written as a type of header. Maybe this is the reason that it doesn't work as expected...

Error: NFS3ERR_NOENT  -   This is by design of OneFS, we coalesce files and then flush them out to disk which is why the commit time is accurate but the file is not immediately available. however when an async option is used within the mount options this should be avoided if writing asynchronously to the cluster.  Has anyone else seen this behavior lately? (current workaround is to store locally and transfer to the cluster via Finder)

    That error can happen for many reasons...one of the reasons that I occassionaly get it is because I try exporting a movie to an external drive that has been formated in the old FAT32 instead of the NTSF standard.  FAT32 only allows for file sizes up to 2 gigs.  And as soon as it reaches that...I would get that error.  I don't know if that is why you are getting that error...but it would be easy to check.  1) are you generating a file that is over 2 gigs?  2) is your drive that you are exporting to FAT 32 (just right click the drive in My Computer and select "properties" then just look for what it says next to "file system".

  • Errors when writing metadata to files on Windows Server

    Good day!
    I have an iMac running OSX 10.9 (Maverick) and Lightroom 5.2.
    My catalog is on the local iMac drive, and the images are on SMB shared drive (handled by Windows 2012 server).
    I decided to do the final layout of my album using InDesign, and for that I needed to access to images using Bridge. So selected all the images (the rated once...) and issue a Metadata/Save command.
    The system came back with errors on many of the files (such as Photos are read only, and unknown errors).
    Retrying to save the metadata on image that was flagged with an error usually (but not always) worked.
    I tried to select save the metadata for few (6) images in a time, many times it was ok, but sometimes, one or two of them failed (and retrying again usually solved the problem).
    It looks to me like a timing related issue.
    Any ideas?
    (After spending about an hour on this, I have exported the images to my local drive...). In general I don't have similar problems with other apps.
    Any ideas?
    Yuval

    I Yuval
    I'm experiencing more or less the same behavior (see Read-only error when writing metadata to file over network (Synology DS1315+ using AFP) ). For me however, the problem is more pronounced if I use the AFP protocol and is better (I think as you described) if I use SMB (all done on a Synology DS1315+). With SMB it most often works but in very rare cases I also get the "read only" message!
    Do you have solution to this? Or are you stuck as I am?
    Cheers, Chris

    Hi,

    It seems you use configurator. Is this happening in production or in some test instance?
    If it is a test instance, when was it cloned from prod? Did you clone the configurator instance at the same time?
    1) You should publish the configurator model from the configurator developer to this new instance.
    2) Also, it is possible that the selections made during order entry earlier are not valid anymore due to ECO/BOM changes or due to configurator rule changes. Open the configuration, make any selections if necessary and then click ok.
    This will repopulate the order lines then you should be able to book the order.
    Hope this helps

    Hi,
    please apply the note 1614788. After note implementation, you need to set parameter RSR_HIER_THRESHOLD_EXPORTDB in table RSADMIN via report SAP_RSADMIN_MAINTAIN in transaction SE38.
    If you set this parameter to value 50.000 for example, all hierarchies with more than 50.000 nodes will be buffered in the database instead of using the export/import buffer.
    To find out the current size of a hierarchy, goto the hierarchy maintenance in transaction RSH1 and copy the hierarchie ID from the header data. With this key you can goto transaction SE16 and select table RSRHIEDIR_OLAP (Field HIEID is the hierarchy ID).
    It should resolved your issue.
    Thanks,
