How to reset "Get" in App Store after a failed install of Yosemite?

I tried to upgrade  OS X 10.6.8 to Yosemite on an old iMac 8,1 with the standard 1GB memory, and of course it failed because 1 GB is not enough. I just upgraded to 4GB memory but now can't "Get" from the App Store?

The same exact thing happened to me. I updated the memory in my iMac8,1 to get yosemite and can't get it anymore but it seems to be a common problem with computers that have 10.6.8 since it is not only Yosemite that we can't get but I can't download any other apps. I do have the get button but when I click it it will just look like you clicked it but nothing will happen after. Trying to download any apps I get the install app after clicking get and nothing will happen.

  • How can I get my apps back after recovery and installing ios 8?

    I have updated my phone a couple of hours ago. Luckily all my photos, contacts, notes, messages... they are all here. But I don't have any of my old apps. Where can I restore them? Please don't tell me I have to download one by one again Most of them were free anyway, except for Whatsapp. And I tried going to app store, then clicking purchased and i don't find any apps there either. Please help?

    Open iTunes. Connect your phone. Select your phone when you see it under Devices heading in iTunes' sidebar. In the main window select the Apps tab. All the apps you have stored in iTunes will be displayed. You will also have a list of the installed and uninstalled apps showing in a scrollable list. Scroll through the list and select all those you want installed. Then sync your phone using the Sync button.

  • How can I get my App Store sign in to match my newly updated Apple ID?

    How can I get my App Store sign in to match my newly updated Apple ID?
    The old ID is already grayed in the box for my ID and it does not allow me to type in my new ID.

    I appreciate your effort and realize I did not provide a lot of background.
    My issue began when I unintentionally managed to add an additional .com onto my new apple ID and the system then incorrectly verified this "none existent" address. Following days of effort and emails to Apple support I finally ended up  getting set up with my new ID on iTunes.
    The next problem was my App store login continued to have the "old" ID grayed into the signin and since I had changed it to a new ID, I could not login at the App Store.
    I spent about 20 minutes on the phone with a total of 3 Apple reps without a resolution to me problem.
    The last Apple rep, Chad wanted to be able to take a screen shot of what I was telling him, which made no sense to me but I was willing to do what ever was required to solve the problem. Unfortunately, Chad hung up or somehow disconnected before I received the email required for allowing a screenshot. After calling back and adding another 5+ minutes invested, I decided to attempt to change back to my old ID.
    Once I had changed my ID back to the old one, I could download updates and purchases.
    I realize my question was asking a lot but my hope was someone would have some idea as to how to correct the problem Apple Support could not. It seems to me Apple needs to make a correction on their end but it is now into week two of attempting to solve the problem and I am pretty much disenchanted with Apple Support due to the amount of time and effort already invested and lack of progress.
    Thanks for your suggestion. I think it was a good one considering the lack of other information.

    How do you get the app store back on your iPad

    My money is on one of the two suggestions that my colleague has given you, but if all else fails......
    You can also reset the home screen layout and the icon will reappear - but the home screen will return to the way that it looked when you first activated your iPad.

  • My App Store is deleted and the option to turn it back on in restrictions is grayed out. How do I get the App Store back?

    My App Store is deleted and the option to turn it back on in restrictions is grayed out. How do I get the App Store back?

    If a reset didn;t work, then you can try restoring your iPad. Don't restore from a back up because if there is a glitch with restrictions, it will just set that option up again. Of if you are sure you have a backup created before you changed restrictions settings, then you can back up from that.

    As you have 10.5.8 you need to upgrade to at least 10.6.6 to get the App Store as this was the 1st version it came with.
    A workaround is to get a friend who has 10.6.6 or better to download Lion for you without installing it. You can create an App Store account on the friend's computer I think to do this. Copy the Lion installer from that computer to a USB stick or burn it to DVD and you should be able to install it on your own computer, I think. You might have to create an empty partition on your own computer first for Lion installation as I'm not sure that it will install over Leopard.

  • Tried to update an app and it asked for the password to my sister's Apple ID. I then checked to see whose Apple ID was logged in, in settings and it said that I was logged in. How do I get the app store to ask for MY Apple ID, not my sister's?

    Tried to update an app on my phone but when it asked me to give the password for my AppleID, it was asking for the password to my sister's AppleID. I went to setting and down to itunes&app store settings and checked which AppleID was logged in, but i found that it was my AppleID that was logged in, not my my sisters. I then tried logging out and logging back in again but the app store, regardless of this, still asks me for my sister's AppleID and I don't know her password...How do I get the app store to ask me for MY AppleID password, not my sister's?

    If this app was bought by your sister with her Apple ID, only her ID can update the app.

    How do I get the app store? I've recently upgraded to OSX 10.6.3 but the icon doesn't appear in my dock.

    Manually download and install the 10.6.8 v1.1 Update Combo. It will take your Mac to 10.6.8 in one installation and install the newest version of the Mac App Store for you.

  • How do I get Mac App Store on my computer? I have 10.5.8 OS. If I need to upgrade first how do I do that? It says that my software is updated.

    How do I get Mac App Store on my iMac? I have 10.5.8 OS. If I need to upgrade first how do I do that? It says that my software is updated.

    And once you get Mac OS X 10.6 installed, update it to at least 10.6.6 which was the first version to include the Mac App Store (the latest version is 10.6.8). The DVD you get will almost certainly be only 10.6.3. You can update from 10.6.3 to 10.6.8 via Software Update, or you can download a standalone Combo updater (Support tab above, then Downloads).

  • Already bought iWork. How do I get the App Store to recognize App purchases that I've made over the past few years?

    I know I'm not the only person experiencing this issue, but I can't find who else has a solution. Essentially, I've been buying Mac Apps over the past few years and using them frequently. Now the App Store exists. Awesome. But how do I get the App Store to understand that I have all those past purchases and serial numbers? I'd love to download the Apps through the App Store because it's a better system of downloading and updating apps, but that convenience isn't worth the extra $300-400 I'd spend re-downloading all those apps.
    Does anyone have any advice or experience with a work around to this?
    Thanks in advance.

    As Carolyn has told you, you cannot opt Apple apps that you have acquired from some other distribution stream into the MAS stream. Period. It does not work that way. It will not be working that way. And many folks have come here wanting it to work that way over the last seven months or so that the MAS has existed.
    If your End User License Agreement does not allow you to install the apps that you have on your new Mac, then the only way to get it today for the new Mac is to buy it from the MAS. The MAS apps use a different type of DRM and there are no serial numbers involved, they are tied to your Apple ID. If you are not ready at this time to purchase apps from the MAS then I would remove the apps from any older Macs and install them on the new Mac to transfer your EULA there. Then when a major paid upgrade becomes available in the future opt that app into the MAS by buying it through the MAS. That should be the only way to get the app in the future, Apple no longer is issuing boxed apps, just currently selling off any of the surviving stock.

  • How can I get the App store to use money in my account rather than a credit card when I want to buy something?

    How can I get the App store to use money in my account rather than a credit card when I want to buy something?

    The iTunes/Mac App Stores use credit on an account first. You are asked to supply an additional payment method when the cash credit doesn't cover the complete cost of the purchase.
