Try here first > Apple ID: "This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons" alert appears
If you can't resolve the issue on your own, call Apple or schedule a call > Apple - Support - Solutions

Updated my mac to mountain lion 10.8.3 and now my app store, mail or facetime won't open. Also, I am not longer able to play videos through firefox. I tried downloading the combo for mountain lion and it refuses to install? Can anyone help me?

updated my mac to mountain lion 10.7.8.3 and now my app store, mail or facetime won't open. Also, I am not longer able to play videos through firefox. I tried downloading the combo for mountain lion and it refuses to install saying that I need to see developer. Whenever I try to open my appstore, mail or facetime it says that the programmes need to be installed and might not be compatible with this version of mac operating system. Can anyone help me?

It's not a bad install of Mountain Lion. I've had the same thing happen to me, but it affected not only Mail, but a variety of other programs including iPhoto and MS Office, where I had to delete preferences, caches, and reinstall the OS as well as the program itself. I'm still having issues with Mail, so I've gone to another program.
Everything was fine upon the initial install. I restarted my iMac about two weeks after the install, and that's when the issues began to happen. I've reinstalled Mountain Lion twice, but the same issues arise.
As I mentioned above, you'll need to figure out which preferences are causing the issue, then reinstall the program, as a fresh reinstallation will do you no good unless you wipe the drive completely.
Here's a thread that helped me with iPhoto:

How do I install Lion on external hard drive? I have purchased and downloaded through App Store but do not know where the download is located so I can install.

I want to install Lion on an external hard drive. The OS was purchased and downloaded through the App Store but I do not know where the file is.

If you downloaded the installer it will be in your applications folder. Failing that use spotlight start typing Install and it should show up.
This is assuming you downloaded the installer from the app store, and didn't just install it onto your mac. If all you have done is install it on your mac. Go to your purchases Lion should show up. Then click download.
Here is the Support page for installing osx on an external drive.
OS X: Installing OS X on an external volume - Apple Support
Hope this helps.

Can I make a bootable DVD from the Mavericks download. I would like to wipe my iMac and start over.

Can I make a bootable DVD from the app store download of Mavericks. I wish to wipe my iMac clean and start over
thanks in anticipation

Well you can make a bootable dvd this way:
After downloading the Install OS X Mavericks.app file from the Mac App Store, run these 12 commands in Terminal to create a Mavericks.iso file and then burn it to a dual layer DVD with Disk Utility. You may then boot up from it by holding the option key down and then install mavericks. This will not install a recovery partition. To do that, uncompress and run the script file https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/13872235/Musings/Recovery%20Partition%20Crea tor%203.7.zip
hdiutil attach /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app/Contents/SharedSupport/InstallESD.dmg -noverify -nobrowse -mountpoint /Volumes/install_app
hdiutil convert /Volumes/install_app/BaseSystem.dmg -format UDSP -o /tmp/Mavericks
hdiutil resize -size 8g /tmp/Mavericks.sparseimage
hdiutil attach /tmp/Mavericks.sparseimage -noverify -nobrowse -mountpoint /Volumes/install_build
rm /Volumes/install_build/System/Installation/Packages
cp -rp /Volumes/install_app/Packages /Volumes/install_build/System/Installation/
hdiutil detach /Volumes/install_app
hdiutil detach /Volumes/install_build
hdiutil resize -size `hdiutil resize -limits /tmp/Mavericks.sparseimage | tail -n 1 | awk '{ print $1 }'`b /tmp/Mavericks.sparseimage
hdiutil convert /tmp/Mavericks.sparseimage -format UDTO -o /tmp/Mavericks
rm /tmp/Mavericks.sparseimage
mv /tmp/Mavericks.cdr ~/Desktop/Mavericks.iso

I have a new mac mini I5 - I cannot find and copy Maverick onto a flash so that I can install on the other 7 iMacs - don't want to download from App store to each machine

I have a new mac mini I5 - I cannot find and copy Maverick onto a flash so that I can install on the other 7 iMacs - don't want to download from App store to each machine - files too big
Please assist

You need to download it on one of the iMacs via App store but not install since after it installs the installation download gets deleted.
After it is downloaded you can copy to a USB device. You can also make a bootable USB install device by:
downloading and using DiskMaker X

X code got downloaded from app store but can't find Xcode.app on my mac

X code got downloaded from app store but can't find Xcode.app on my mac

Check your Applicaitons folder.
Mac OS X Lion 10.7.2 < your profile
Xcode's minimum requirements according to the App Store under Information is OS X v10.7.3 or later.
If you are running v10.7.2, click your Apple menu icon top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click Software Update.
That should bring your Mac up to date to v10.7.4.
Then try re downloading Xcode.
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.

Mountain Lion downloaded from App store on 11th and 12th June will not install. Downloaded TWICE it times out after 20 secs into install. Can't get any help!!! Going around in circles!!
My Machine MacBook Pro OS 10.6.8
Processor 2.66Ghz i7,
4GB memory
128GB solid state drive
Purchased 2010

Thanks very much for the advice. I trawled through the other answers on the site and it appears others had the same issue. I doubled the available space and the install went like clockwork... which is what one would norma;ly expect from Apple :-)
Maybe Apple should have a ' definitely read me first' notice before a download takes place with CLEAR instructions to have more than the 6GB they indicate ofr the Mountain Lion download

I've downloaded Lion to my iMac and want to also have on my Mac Air - the installer has disappeared from Mac, can i download from app store for free to my Air?

I 'm from Iran and like apple very much I waiting for your response... !

In short, because you are in Iran and probably trying to use the App store in another country. You can search the forums for several other threads on this topic.

Aperture 3 crashes each time I launch it. Can I delete and reinstall from App Store

Aperture 3.2.1 crashes each time I launch it. It worked fine until today. I repaired permissions and trashed the plist. Can I delete and reinstall it from App Store? If so, which is the best way to delete it without affect the library?

You can reinstall from the App Store just delete Aperture from the Application folder. Your images are in the library and will not be affected doing this (though having a good working backup is always a good idea especially at times like this).
This may correct your problem but without more information there is no way to tell.

Lion: Can't re-download from App store "newer version???"

So I am trying to create a USB backup for booting/repair. Apple has what I thought a great solution here... http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718
towards bottom of page.
It states you can re-download from the App store from the Purchased tab by using "Option" and clicking on Lion to make it turn to install.
That all works, but when I click on install it says I have a newer version and if I want to install I have to move the other one to the trash.
That seems kind of counter intuitive to me. Any suggestions how I can create a .dmg on a USB drive????
I have my machined backed up to Time Machine so not terribly worried as I could possibly use the Command R on boot to recover, but a thumb drive would be easier. Thanks...Beo63

I see.. I was getting that message on the Lion app page I misunderstood your instructions and was option clicking on the Lion Icon which made 'installed' turn into '£20.99' then when I clicked on the £20.99 I got the same message as you about an older version.
When I quit the app store - reopened and just held option when I clicked on the purchases tab - it worked... second time. with the installed button being dark grey so I could re-download.
If your doing the same as above and still getting the newer version message I'm afraid Im stumped. Best of luck!
