FaceTime came with Lion already installed but it isn't shown as installed on the Apps Store...Help?
Facetime doesn't show as installed on the apps store but it normally comes with Lion 10.7 and Lion came pre-installed on my MacBook Pro. Does anyone know why is that? And how come the facetime installed doesn't connect to my iPhone 4 when I try to facetime call it?
It's a different version of Facetime. If you're running Lion, you have Facetime installed but it's not the same version as the one in the Mac App Store. I can assure you that having it show as not installed is normal; that's the way it is for every Mac on which I've installed Lion.
Be sure your brother and you are not using the same ID. You should be able to use an email-style address or a phone number.
I'm finding that establishing a Facetime link takes several seconds, so have a bit of patience - it's not instant. And once your Facetime partner accepts the connection, it takes another couple of seconds.
Be sure the iPhone is connected to your local wifi network, because Facetime will not work with cellular data connections under iOS 4. It will later this year under iOS 5.

i bought osx lion for download but I cannot find where it is on the app store. i currently have 10.5.8 so I dont know if that has something to do with it.
You cannot use Lion until you have upgraded to 10.6.8:
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
Snow Leopard General Requirements
1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
2. 1GB of memory
3. 5GB of available disk space
4. DVD drive for installation
5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
fees may apply.
6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
terms apply.
You received a coupon you can use and redeem on the App Store to download Lion. There is no App Store in Leopard. -
My MacBook Pro came with Lion pre-installed so I can't re-download it from the app store. Is it possible to get the installESD.dmg file and how can I get it if I can't re-download Lion in Apple Store option?
FYI Mac OS X is not designed to be installed on additional Macs, unless you purchased it from the App Store, in which case you can make as many copies as you wish and install it on as many Macs as you own.
From the Recovery Disk Assistant -
Notes
If the computer shipped with OS X Lion or Mountain Lion, the external recovery drive may only be used with the system that created it.
If the system was upgraded to Lion or Mountain Lion purchased from the App Store, the external recovery drive can be used with other similarly-upgraded systems. -

I just bought an iphone4 and is connected to my wifi at home but I can't bring anything up in the app store, itunes, etc. My husband has a droid 2 and he has no problems with the wifi? Any ideas?
If you look at the top left of your screen you will either see a 3G (or 4G if you have AT&T) or you will see the wi-fi symbol. If you don't see the wi-fi symbol you are connecting to Gmail through your cellular data plan, not via wi-fi.
To answer your question, it doesn't happen often but when it does the steps I mentioned above will normally resolve it. Hopefully you won't have any further problem with this. -

iMovie was removed from my macbook pro after I downloaded OS X Yosemite, I had it before and have used it, but now I can only get it through the app store. I can't pay for it so I would really appreciate the help.
Look in your applications folder for the installer - Install OS X Yosemite. Delete it. Then go back to the App Store purchases tab and see if you can download it. You might have to re-index Spotlight.

We use profile manager to set the URL for the Software Updates on a server inhouse, and the clients see the updates when I open the app store on their iMac, but when I try to send the update command to all Macs through Remote Desktop, RD is returning that there are no updates available.
And here's a log message:

Why does this happen? Do we really have to manually update each client or is there something wrong?We use profile manager to set the URL for the Software Updates on a server inhouse, and the clients see the updates when I open the app store on their iMac, but when I try to send the update command to all Macs through Remote Desktop, RD is returning that there are no updates available.

I have gone to the apple website and changed my password already. I logged in on settings on my phone with my new password, and a box popped up saying I needed to verify my credit card. When I go there, it says I am disabled still and I can't do anything. Then when I go to the app store, it still says my Apple ID has been disabled. Please help! I am technology impaired...

I am trying to install an update for Java. The system won't allow it, saying I have specified "in Security" not to install any download not from the App Store. The only preferences pane I know of is the one on Safari, and it doesn't have anything about this. Am I looking in the wrong place? How can I get around it? I had the same trouble trying to install an Adobe Flash upgrade.
When I use your hot link "these instructions" I get a blank page.
Here is the message I get on trying to install a Java Script update:
This is frustrating in that
the update is not available on the App store.
it refers to security preferences I did not set and can't identify or locate--no such settings appear in Safari> security.
Can you be more specific? Thanks.
