  • I'm not able to download the App Store with a software update. How can I get the App Store on my Mac?

    I have some problems to get the App Store on my mac. Every time when I do a Software Update, there is no App Store to download.
    How can I get the App Store on my Mac?
    It's because I want to set OSX Lion on my MacbookPro.
    Thanks!

    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.

  • 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.

  • Can not open the app store on my mac since new update

    can not open the app store on my mac since new update

    Here are some suggestions for getting the best results from this site.
    Create a user profile that accurately reflects the type of hardware you're using and your version of OS X, or include that information in your first message.
    Give details of the problem. A remark such as "X doesn't work" conveys no useful information. If X did work, you wouldn't be here. Instead, you should post something like this: "I did A; I expected B; but I got C." Include the complete, verbatim text of any error messages you saw, and specify where you saw them: in an application window, a CrashReporter window, a log, or whatever.
    Also describe the steps you’ve taken yourself, if any, to try to resolve the issue. If the problem is of recent origin, did you make any changes to your setup just before you first noticed it? Is the problem reproducible or intermittent? That is, does it always manifest itself when you take a certain action, or only at unpredictable times?
    Before posting, ask yourself whether it’s likely that you are the the only person ever to have had this problem. If not, search the discussions for answered questions similar to yours. If you found any pertinent information, but it didn't help, give details.

  • I restored my macbook to factory settings and now i have no app store, how can i get the app store back on my macbook?

    I need help getting the App Store back on my Macbook!!!

    You need to update or upgrade it to at least 10.6.6. If it's running 10.5.8 or earlier, this requires installing a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD.

  • The app store icon on my sons IPOD is gone. How can I get the app store reinstalled ?

    The app store icon is gone from my sons ipod.  How do I
    get the app store reinstalled?

    The App Store is a default app and cannot be deleted. First make sure it has not been disabled via restrictions.  To check, head to Settings -> General -> Restrictions on the iPod and make sure there are no instructions in placing for installing apps.
    Otherwise, do a spotlight search for it.  While on your iPod's home screen, swipe to the right and enter in App Store.

  • How to i get the App Store onto my mac if it doesn't have it?

    i currently just bought a new iphone 5.  I would like to update my MAC OSx but i can't because everything is done through the "app store" on the computer.  My computer doesn't seem to have that function.  Is there a way to get it put onto my computer?

    If you are running v10.7 Lion on your Mac as your profile suggests, then the App Store should be installled.
    Three ways to access the App Store.
    Click your Apple menu icon top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click App Store.
    Or, from your Dock 
    Or launch the App Store from your Applications folder.
    If you still can't locate the App Store, installing the OS X Lion Update 10.7.5 (Client Combo) will reinstall the App Store for you.
    Restart your Mac after the combo is installed.

  • I have done the software updates on my laptop but still can't get the app store

    Hello,
    I am trying to download the app store for my laptop, however, I have done all the system updates (numerous times over the past few months) and the app store has never appeared.  I can't seem to find a link to download it from the website and am not sure how I am able to get it on my computer without reinstalling my whole operating system or something (which I really don't want to do if I can avoid it).
    Any information on this issue would be greatly apprieciated,
    Lauren

    You need to purchase and install Mac OS X 10.6 and then update to at least 10.6.6 to get it.

  • How can I get the App store to resolve a problem?

    When I purchased a new Mac Book Pro last January I gave my old Mac Book to my son. A few days later I deleted my old iTunes account and ID and started fresh with same name, new password. Now I cannot update iPhoto because it came with the MBP which was still using the old account info. I have not had any problems updating other system software, and just updated Safari with my usual (new) ID and password. sup

    What happens when you try to update iPhoto?
    Most likely when you deleted the old account you broke the connection between the MBP and the App Store. I don;t think there is anything anyone here can do to help. You will need to contact App Store support to see if they can get this working again.
    You can try Contact Apple Support or else try 1-800-APL-CARE (800-275-2273)

  • How can I get the App store to work?

    I cannot get my App store to work on OS 10.7.4  I don't know how I am going to upgrade with the new system.  I thought the new up grade would help fix the problem, but now I don't know who to get the upgrade because my app store won't load.  I am getting the screen that says
    One Moment Please.
    Connenction to the iTunes Store.
                    Loading...
    If I tunes doesn't open, click the iTunew application icon in you Dock or Windows Task Bar. To download iTunes, Please click here.
    I have tried sign off and back on.  My iTunes works just fine. Only the App store doesn't work.  I have tried the terminal message thing.  I have tried to find my file.  I bought Lion from the app store.  PLEASE help I am so frustrated.  I want to cry.  When I as for help they send me to the boards to the support thing, but nothing on those pages have helped me.  I know there are other post, but  I don't know how to just dump eveything reload and then back up from my time capsule.  How do I do that?  I will that we could just reboot the App store. 
    Thanks

    Incase one is wondering... I found the answers in this entry
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/18810192#18810192
    I tired the
    rm ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist
    rm ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.storeagent.plist
    rm -rf ~/Library/Preferences/ByHost/*
    at first because the person was working out of lion but it kept saying not found, but I did everything else here next.  I added the debug thing and didn't work but I didn't.  Then I deauthorized my computer iTunes and reauthorized then signed in and out. Did not work. I then ran the permission  part of Utilities and then ran the repair.  after this I copied all three lines together pasted them into Terminal.  After that it worked.    I am so happy right now.  I think I had to repair the disc to get it right.  I wrote everything I did incase it was a combination of every thing. 
    This is how to enable the debug menu that is part of the thread. 
    Quit the Mac App Store
    Launch the Terminal (located at /Applications/Utilities/)
    Type the following command into the Terminal and then hit return:
    defaults write com.apple.appstore ShowDebugMenu -bool true
    Relaunch the Mac App Store, the Debug menu is next to “Help” in the menubar
    So now to the interesting part: what me helped was to select "clear cookies" in the debug menu first, and second to select "reset Application"
    This was all found in that thread, but it is 11 pages.... this might be more helpful.  There are other suggestions in the tread if this doesn't work for you.

  • How do I get Lion if I can not get the App Store to work?

    I have reinstalled my OS 10.6.3 ran all the updates and the App store does not work. I have reinstalled the 10.6.8 Combo updater, and while I can now look through the App Store if I try to download anything the application locks up with the spinning rainbow wheel; the only way out of the is to 'Force Quit'. That being said, "How am I suppose to upgrade to Lion OS 10.7"?

    At this time, Lion is not being offered in disc form and is only available through the Mac App store.
    As for your Mac AppStore freezing, I assume you are receiving an error 100. Try unmounting your Bootcamp partition and any external hard drives. Sign out and quit the AppStore and iTunes. Open iTunes and download any application. This should prompt you to accept new terms. Accept the new terms and wait for the download to finish. Quit iTunes and relaunch the AppStore. Now attempt to download an application within the AppStore. This should resolve the issue.

  • I can't get the App Store app to download on my iphone

    My iPhone doesn't have the app for the App Store won't download either

    The App Store app is a built-in app, it can't be deleted or downloaded - if it's not showing on your phone then check to see if it's hidden by Settings > General > Restrictions > Installing Apps 'off'

  • If I have Mac OS X Snow leopard can i get the app store

    How Do I get App Store

    The App Store application is included in Mac OS X 10.6.6 or later and can be found in the Applications folder. If you have Mac OS X 10.5.8 as your profile indicates, though, you have Leopard, not Snow Leopard, and will need to purchase a retail copy of Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard and upgrade your system. Snow Leopard is still available from the Apple Store.
    Regards.
