How to open Apple Store apps

Downloaded app from Apple Store onto Macbook Pro, but can't open app

The description page for every app contains something similar to this:
Requirements: Compatible with iPhone, iPod touch and iPod. Requires iOS 3.0 or later.
Apps are downloaded to your computer so that you can then sync them to your Apple devices. The software in an "App" is designed to work with the processor, hardware and firmware on the device, not that of your Mac...

    How to use Apple Store app to purchase an item in 'Favorites'?

    You can't delete the App Store app on the iPod. You can only hide it via Restrictions (Settings>General>Restrictions).
    If not hidden by restrictions, have you used the SpotLight search to try to find it?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:

  • HT4461 how to download non-Apple store apps on iMac 10.8

    How to download non-Apple store apps on iMac 10.8. I want to transfer photos from a Samsung Galaxy S4 to the iMac.

    If your Mac is not allowing you to download 3rd party apps that are from a source other than the Mac App Store, it is likely the security setting in System Preferences. Go to Sys Prefs/Security & Privacy/General and set the download options best for you. You will likely find the download options grayed out. You will need to click the padlock below and supply your admin password to unlock the preference pane.

  • How put apple store apps on the iPad screen with others like internet , face time all etc how?

    How put apps on screen with another's like internet , face time have already in screen . Now want apple store apps on screen how?

    If you tap and hold down on an app icon it will begin to wiggle. While it wiggles, you can drag it over to the edge of the screen and hold it about half way over on the screen for a second or two and it will jump to the next screen. You can drag one app on top of another app to create a folder if you care to do so.
    When you are done, tap the home button and the apps will stop wiggling.

  • I can't figure out how to use my Apple Store gift card in the Apple store app

    I received and Apple store gift card (not iTunes gift card) and loaded it into passbook. When I use the Apple store app on my iPad, I don't see an option to use the Apple store gift card as a payment option. Any suggestions?

    What happens when you go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores and tap on the ID and sign out of existing one and ithen sign into the new one?

  • How do you remove credit card info from apple store app on ipad?

    Is there a way to remove my credit card info on the apple store app on iOS? There is no option for none. I don't mean from iTunes I have a gift card on file in iTunes.

    Do you mean the App store? Both iTunes and the App store use what ever is set up on your appleID, be it credit card or iTunes card. Its the same account.

  • Why or how can I download the Apple Store App for my windows 8 mobil phone

    I want to download the app for apple store to my windows phone, I find it really  confusing that my computer which supports windows 7 home premium can download apple store app and my phone with the newer windows software cannot,  why and it not why not make sure that it is known before people upgrade or change to the newer phone

    You can't. The Apple Store app is for iOS devices and is not available for Windows Phone, nor can any other iOS app run on your Windows Phone. You'll have to use whatever web browser your phone provides if you want to shop the Apple Store.  And no, there is no Apple Store app for Windows on a computer either. Perhaps you're thinking of iTunes and the iTunes Store?

  • HT203253 How can I reinstall The Apple Store App?

    I have MacBook Air 13.3 Mid 2008, suddenly the Apple Store App stopped working properly. It could lunch and display apps in apple store and even accept purchase and installation process but never succeeded. It would kept on loading until I quit it! So I thought if I uninstall and run software update it will come up again, but unfortunately it didn't show up. I have been told to reinstall the system by holding down "Command + R" keys upon restart. I did that severally but it pops up login window instead of the menu list for installation guide.
    Any idea will be appreciated.

    You will have to reinstall Lion.
    Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • How come I have 2 different Apple Store Apps on iPad mini?

    i Noticed that for some reason I have 2 different Apple Store apps on my iPad mini. I think this may have somehow happened when I upgraded to iOS 8.3.
    One has has image of shopping cart the other has image of I guess a shopping bag. Not sure why the newer one didn't just replace the older one.
    I Guess the one w the shopping bag is the newer one & it looks like it only retained orders for the last 18 mo, saying I have none.
    I Wasn't wxpecting that it would lose the prior history, including purchase info for this iPad mini & my MacBookPro.
    THe one w the shopping cart image seems to just refer to the newer 1 asking to go there. Don't see any other options. Confused by this.
    IOs 8.3

    TTry re-reading my post. Apparently the one showing the shopping cart is the old Apple Store app.
    Both of them I was asking about say Apple store--not App Store. TThat is a separate app.
    & Actually in the past, when there was an Apple Store more conveniently located to where I lived, I was able to use the Apple Store app to make in-store purchases at the brick & mortar Apple Store.
    i Never tried using it for online purchases. But in CA there were 2 Apple stores w in about 15 min drive of where I lived. Not so in the Portland, OR area. Well, downtown might be 15 min away & then expensive parking or taking public transportation.
    this seems to have happened when I upgraded to iOS 8.3.

  • I had to change my email for my apple account on my iPhone 4.  when I go to add an app or update an app it shows the old email.. so I can't delete apps for this to work becuz I would have to delete my apple store app and it won't let me

    I had to change my email for my apple acct on my iPhone e 4.  When I go add an app or update an app the old apple email comes up.  I can't delete an apple store app.  So how do I refresh the apple store app?

    Hi skippy2012trev,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you updated your Apple Id and password but now you are being prompted for the old information in iCloud. You are on the right track by changing the Apple ID back to the previous email address temporarily so that you can sign out. You should not need to verify the email address. After you edit the Apple ID back to the old email address and then sign out of iCloud on your iPhone, edit the Apple ID back to the address you would currently like to use. There is no need to change the password again, only the email address, unless you prefer to update the password again.
    If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud - Apple Support
    Change your Apple ID temporarily
    If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't help, try these steps:
    Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
    Tap Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
    Scroll down and tap Sign Out, then tap Sign Out to confirm. If you're using iOS 7 or earlier, tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
    Tap Keep on My [Device] or Delete from My [Device]. In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
    Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
    Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
    Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.
    Cheers,
    Joe

  • Error while using apple store app for purchase

    Hi,
    I was using an apple store apps to make the purchase at irvine spacktrum apple store, I bought a PNY USB Flash Drive 8GB using the apps to make the payment. Some how it was giving me errors when the apps asked my 3 digits credit card security number, so I call the sales rep at the store, he saw the same error and he said there might be error issue with the server, so I gave him the PNY for the purchase, he scaned it with his sales device and swiped my credit card.
    But just now I look at my Wells Fargo account and I'm seeing 5 of the same transections but then I only make ,1 purchase.
    I wish you could fix this issue with my bank, or I will dispute the 4 transaction with the reason of multiple charge over a purchase.
    I wish the apple store app can be fix, if there is an error do not takes somebody's money, that way people will trust the app to make the purchase in store.
    My reciept number is *R1466574228*
    Thanks
    Buddy Liem

    I've also been trying this for several hours. I get to the point of choosing between the 16GB and 32 GB phones (so, after it has validated my eligibility with at&t and determined the correct pricing) and it just displays a pop-up that says "Error" (no further explanation). Color me completely unimpressed.
