German menu options in the app store instead of English

When I select the app store icon on my iPad main screen, I am taken to the US based app store, however all menu options are in German. The apps themselves are still US based and still in US currency I.e I do not have Germany selected as my country otherwise they would be German apps. I want US everything. I bought my iPad 2 weeks ago and is been like this since I started it. iTunes on the other hand is completely in English.
1. my language preference is set to english within the iPad itself.
2. I have changed iTunes language preferences to English
3. I have ensured the flag in the bottom corner is US not Germany
4. My credit card account is US based and I have a US address
5. I have made all language changes on my laptop and synced.
Does anyone have any suggestion as to how to change these menu options to English instead of German? Thx

Thanks for your quick reply.   I have purchsed iPhoto 9.5.   And I downloaded and installed the Library Upgrader 1.1, before first opening the newly installed iPhoto 9.5 (as recommended). I can tell that iPhoto 9.5 has been installed - as the icon is now blue (and not organe/red).
Then I tried to open iPhoto, and received a notification - that I must first install the Library Upgrader 1.1.   I restarted the MacBook.   Tried again.   Same notification messages.   I downloaded (and installed) the Library Upgrader 1.1, again.   Restarted the MacBook.   Tried to open iPhoto again.   Same notification messages.
These notifications give me only 2 options - to QUIT iPhoto or to "Learn More" about the download of the Library Upgrader (and a link to do so).
One observation that might be a part of the issue (or the diagnosis).   The system requirements cited on the download page indicate the following... and NOT OS X Mavericks.
OS X Lion 10.7
OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or later
Any suggestions on how I might get iPhoto to work??   THANKS!!

How can I reinstall Pages on my MacBook Pro? I only have the "open" option in the App store

After installing Yosemite, Pages would not open on my MacBook Pro anymore, so I uninstalled it, with the idea of reinstalling it, but now I cannot. The App store under "Purchases" only gives me the option to open Pages. How can I install it?
Thanks

What version of Pages?
What version of Pages did you have before you installed Yosemite?
How did you uninstall it?
If the App Store shows Open that means you probably have Pages 5.5.3 installed in Applications.

Hey. I have recently made an update on my daughters iMac, particularly update OS X 10.9.4, when finished, its still asking for update and the same update stills remarked in the apple update menu and at the App store app. Why doesn't stop asking f.ud?

Hey. I have recently made an update on my daughters iMac, particularly the update OS X 10.9.4, when finished, its still asking for update and the same update stills remarked as ready in the apple update menu and remarked as 1 to go at the App store app. Why doesn't stop asking for update when its done like 5 times or more? Thanks for taking your time!

If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data, then reinstall the OS.* You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need the backup unless something goes wrong. If the system was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you may need the Apple ID and password you used.
If you use FileVault 2, then before running the Installer you must launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the FileVault startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) It will be nested below another icon with the same name. Click the Unlock button in the toolbar and enter your login password when prompted. Then quit Disk Utility to be returned to the main Recovery screen.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it. The same goes for Xcode. All other data will be preserved.
*The linked support article refers to OS X 10.9 ("Mavericks"), but the procedure is the same for OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later.

Have Apple removed the "Last Compatible Version" option from the App Store ?

Hi,
I got an iPad 2 and am giving my dad my old iPad 1. Apple recently let you download the latest version of an app for the version of iOS you were on, this worked fine on my AppleID and I was able to download the last compatible version of every app I wanted. But since i restored this iPad and created an email address and AppleID for my Dad, any app requiring iOS6 or higher is giving me the same message as it did before Apple made the change, as in you need to upgrade to iOS 6 (not possible on iPad 1). I dont understand why its doing this, any idea why its done this now ?.
Thanks in advance

You'll need to download the existing current version of the App before you get the option for a compatible version.
You can do this from a compatible device or a computer running iTunes using your Dad's Apple ID so the Apps are associated with it.
Once you've downloaded the Apps you want on a compatible device or a computer running iTunes you can then go to the Purchased Tab in the App Store App on the first gen iPad to get the last compatible version for the first gen iPad.
Note that not all Apps may have compatible versions available.

How can I set my payment options in the App Store to 'none' so that I can continue to update the apps and use free ones?

I currently have no balances or orders waiting on payment, but I cannot install free apps or update my current ones because AppStore wants valid credit card information. I want to get around this so that I can actually -use- my iPhone.
Halp?

As a personal note:
I only subscribed to Pandora Plus.
I have not opted to re-up the subscription.
I have went according to the help information, but am not given a 'none' option.
Should I be blowing up their phone lines over this? I can't even update like Skype and such without needing to have a credit card?

Mountain Lion Download option disappeared from app store.

I purchased mountain lion and downloaded it to a few of my macs and I was trying to install it again and it no longer shows as a download option in the app store. Do they only let you download it a limited number of times?

No, whatever the problem is, that is not it.
Try signing out of the App Store, and signing in again. It should appear under "Purchases".
Make sure that you did not "hide" the purchase:

The App Store Broke

My app store broke, leaving me with an app store that seems to be like a script of the app store instead of an actual, well, store. I believe it was updating to 6.1.2, which I did over wifi, that screwed it up. This is a school iPad, so I cannot reset the iPad to factory settings unless giving it to a teacher.
So, I got some screen shots:
By the way, none of these actually work, it's just text.

Nevermind. After about 20 minutes of logging off and on the internet and resetting it fixed. Don't know what caused it though.

I just installed Yosemite. iPhoto is gone, and Photos does not open. Instead, I am prompted to update to the latest version. The App Store tells me that is not available in the US. What do I do? Cannot access any photos.

If I buy Lion in the app store, can I ''reset'' my whole macbook (instead of doing this with the cd that comes with the macbook)?

If I buy Lion in the app store, can I ''reset'' my whole macbook (instead of doing this with the cd that comes with the macbook)?
With ''reset'' I mean, repair because it is from 2007 and so slow. So that all the data and programmes are gone and I can start over with Lion!?

You have a choice. You can start by erasing the drive and reinstalling Snow Leopard prior to purchasing and downloading the Lion installer. Or you can purchase and download the installer, save the Lion installer, create a bootable Lion USB flash drive installer, boot from the Lion installer, erase the hard drive, and install Lion. I would suggest the second choice:
Make Your Own Lion Installer
1. After downloading Lion you must first save the Install Mac OS X Lion application. After Lion downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the Lion installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button or quit the installer. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing Lion.
2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
3. Locate the saved Lion installer in your Downloads folder. CTRL- or RIGHT-click on the installer and select Show Package Contents from the contextual menu. Double-click on the Contents folder to open it. Double-click on the SharedSupport folder. In this folder you will see a disc image named InstallESD.dmg.
4. Plug in your freshly prepared USB flash drive. You are going to clone the InstallESD.dmg disc image to the flash drive as follows:
Open Disk Utility.
Select the USB flash drive from the left side list.
Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
Check the box labeled Erase destination.
Select the USB flash drive volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
Drag the InstallESD.dmg disc image file into the Source entry field.
Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
When the clone is completed you have a fully bootable Lion installer that you can use without having to re-download Lion.
To install Lion from scratch:
Install or Reinstall Lion from Scratch
If possible backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive.
Boot From Lion USB Flash Drive:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager appears. Select the icon for the USB flash drive then click on the arrow button below the icon.
Erase the hard drive:
Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Install button.

If i factory reset my ipod touch(5th gen), can i reset it as the option 'set up as new ipod', and then i can just go into the app store/itunes store and restore my music and apps and not icloud with photos and ect?

if i factory reset my ipod touch(5th gen), can i reset it to the option 'set up as a new ipod', and then i can just go into the app store/itunes store and log into my apple ID so i can just restore my music and apps and not icloud with photos, contacts, ect. and then later i can add contacts that i need/want instead of them restoring them from icloud?
The reason i asked this question is because i have been wondering this a lot ever since i got an exchange on this ipod (and ive only had it for a few weeks now) because my last ipod had a lot of problems. so after i restored my ipod with my computer/itunes, i downloaded apps that i wanted, and then when i went to the storage to see how much storage was left, it said 0 bytes. i was freaking out because i didnt know how that could be, i mean, cause like, that is impossible when i just 'purchased' it, that the space was full but i looked and all my pictures were on this ipod and i already put them on my computer so i dont need them anymore thats why i wanna reset it now so there is nothing on it so i can have more space for stuff to do and download on it.
it is updated to iOS 8 but that happened when i purchased it, so i didnt have a choice to update it even though i didnt want to update to iOS 8...
and i hope you understand my problem..
i would REALLY REALLY appreciate it if someone could tell me a solution to my problem!!! thank you so much!

Hey Sierra, You can do just what you have stated. My question, what is your "other"? If it is over 1.5 GB you most likely have corrupt files. Doing a Restore to New, Factory restore should correct it. Just make sure you make a full backup of all information on your iPod to your computer before you restore, so you don't lose your stuff, contacts, videos, pictures, non-iTunes music, etc, use the cable and connect with your computer. Then, via cable, connect to your computer, run the Restore to new, don't use your backup. Treat this iPod as if it was your first one ever. When restore is done, set up and add what info you wish to install on this iPod. The music apps etc you purchased should be on your computer, if not you should be able to retrieve purchased apps and music from iTunes. Any music, videos, apps not purchased from iTunes will be lost to you if you do not save them to your computer or the cloud first. When your done, make a current Backup and you should good to go. Hope this helps. Good luck. Cheers.

When I launch the app store, I get "minecraft." It will not allow me to return to the "featured" menu. I've tried rebooting / killing the app, but nothing has worked. Any insight?

I have also tried the fixes offered in this forum such as using the "Other" mail in setting up the gmail accounts, and not using the dedicated gmail setting. I also went to google and signed in and enable the additional devices. I had the same problems with the original account I set up for gmail, but it corrected when i went to using the "Other" instead of the Gmail button. I was able to set up the new gmail accounts on my iphone without problem and on my husband's ipad1 for his gmail account. Just the ipad 2 is giving me problems. Again, thanks for any suggestions.

How can u downgrade. Apple doesn't allow that. Unless your iPhone 5 is jail broken. iOS 7 isn't even out yet. There Is no way u can get iOS 7 unless it was beta. And if so beta is having some issues.
