HT201364 after converting to mavericks I cannot download any updates through app store and mouse click on download buttons does not respond, please assist

Aftr converting to Mavericks could not able to update/download applications through spp store and have to force quit app store as the mouse does not click the X button

Do you get any error messages?
Try resetting the App Store.
Reset       Learned from Old Toad
Try deleting the com.apple.appstore.plist.
Quit the application.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder.  Select Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.
Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.
You might need to redo the View settings after an update.

  • TS1702 how do i delete from the startup disk? I am trying to get Mountain Lion from the App store and it says that the purchase was not complete because i need 4.06 GB space to download OS x 10.8. and to remove items from my startup disk to increase space

    You can use iCloud with 10.7.5. You do not need to upgrade to Yosemite. You should provide a minimum of 15 GBs of free space or 10% of the hard drive's capacity, whichever is greater.
    Freeing Up Space on The Hard Drive
      1. See Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks' Storage Display.
      2. You can remove data from your Home folder except for the /Home/Library/ folder.
      3. Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on freeing up space on your hard drive.
      4. Also see Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk.
      5. See Where did my Disk Space go?.
      6. See The Storage Display.
    You must Empty the Trash in order to recover the space they occupied on the hard drive.
    You should consider replacing the drive with a larger one. Check out OWC for drives, tutorials, and toolkits.
    Try using OmniDiskSweeper 1.8 or GrandPerspective to search your drive for large files and where they are located.

  • The download button does not appear when I try to download Flash Player

    The download button does not appear when I try to download Flash Player on my MacBook Pro.  I'm using Firefox.  I uninstalled Flash Player yesterday and can't download the newest version 11.6.602.180 today, help!

    Here's the current link to the offline installer:
    http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/latest/help/install_flash_player_osx.dmg
    Are you running any ad-blocking or anti-tracking plugins?  When the product download center appears broken, those are common contributors.

  • When trying to download & install Firefox 5.0.1 into a Mac, I get a message saying that Firefox cannot be installed because libnsscksi.dylib is in use. Any idea how to locate and close that file? Finder does not recognize it. Thanks!

    Tried to install both Firefox 5.0 and 5.0.1, and received the same error message that a file ending in .dylib was in use. I cannot locate that file, and Finder does not recognize it.

    I have a Power PC Mac with OS 10.5.8 and Firefox 3.6.28, the latest versions supported on my machine, and all of my plug-ins are the latest versions available for that browser version. I too get the warning message all the time and it is very annoying. I have never had any "security" problems, and I don't go along with this imperative to always be upgrading equipment. Don't these corporate geeks understand that we're in a global economic contraction and a lot of us are unemployed/underemployed? They want us to be good consumers and "switch to a newer computer" but I can't afford that. Like, if I can't fix my old car, I won't be able to drive. What I want to know is: '''how to disable the warning message?''' Thank you in advance.

  • There were apple updates with IOS7.1.  After the updates, the Apps store and the iTunes updated in japanese instead of English.  I have tried apple support and went through the steps one by one to change to English and it did not work.  Help!

    Is there anyone that has a problem with changing the Apps and iTunes language back to English after the IOS 7.1 updates on their iPhone? Ihave contacted Apple support and followed the step by step instructions and it did not change it to English.  The original language is English.  I reset all settings and turned the phone off and it still did not change the language in the software eventhough the settings for language is set in English.  When I went on line support.apple.com, in the iTunes section it states that the software iTunes 11.1.7, I think changes the language in the Apps whenever there are updates in the IOS 7.1.  Is there anyone that can help me.

    Content bought using one Apple ID cannot be merged or transferred to another Apple ID.
    All you need to do is delete those apps belonging to your wife.
    Check Settings > iTunes & App Store > Apple ID: > your own Apple ID here. If not, sign out here and sign in yours.

  • Cannot open any Pages documents made prior to upgrading to Yosemie. Pages does not appear in the iCloud list in system preferences.

    Upgraded to Yosemite. Upgraded Pages to latest version. Uninstalled older versions of pages (made with iWork '09). Now I cannot open any Pages documents made prior to upgrading. I keep getting the same redundant message: "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document. You can download the latest version of Pages from the Mac App Store." Not sure if this is relevant, but Pages does not show up in the iCloud list in systems preferences.

    Ok, I found pages on the iCloud drive. But the behavior of Pages is still the same, problem unchanged.

  • Cannot Purchase or Update from App Store

    Since updateing my iPad to 7.0.2 I am unable to update or download any apps from the app store on the iPad.  I get nothing in the update section of the store - just a white blank page.  When i try and download a new app i just get the 'thinking about it' circular graphic replacing the purchase button and no new app is loaded.
    Has anyone had this or have any thoughts on this?
    Thanks

    Hey goose0211,
    To start off your troubleshooting, I would try out these steps first:
    If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
    Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
    Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
    Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
    Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
    Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
    Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
    Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
    Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
    If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.

  • Cannot print to OpenDirectory printers, print button does not respond

    Since I upgraded to Lion I can no longer print to the network printers in our office (which is an MS environment using Active Directory). And, Yes, I have deleted them and added the printers again after upgrading to Lion.
    What happens is that the print button in the dialog just blinks and the dialog is never dismissed. (No printing occurs either.)
    The printers in question are an HP 4250n (and I've tried both with the native driver and the generic). The other printer is a Konica Minolta C452 PS. Since Lion is not yet supported I've tried with the generic PS driver.
    I found this link http://community.spiceworks.com/topic/149011-cannot-print-from-lion-to-microsoft -print-services-active-directory where another user has the same problem as me. Unfortunately our printers are not listed under the Windows tab.
    I'm seriously considering downgrading to Snow Leopard if I cannot get this to work. Any hints please?

    I made a workaround by adding the printer as an IP-printer using the LPD-protocol. Now printing works again!

  • Download button does not click

    I'm sure that the apps i want to download is compatible with my phone, but the download key is always white/gray and I cannot click on it to download. Anything wrong? (my phone is c5-03)

    Files may still be in the memory or disk cache if you decide not to install the extension.
    You can probably use Clear Recent History to remove the last hour if you want to remove such files.

  • How do I delete a book from iBooks which is already partially downloaded?  It's from the iBooks store (free), but now frozen.  It does not respond to "pause" or "delete" but will not continue to download either.  Any suggestions?  Thank you.

    See Subject/Question.

    Problem resolved.  Once I downloaded another book, logging into Apple account, it started the new book downloading and the partially downloaded book (frozen), finally completed its download.  Now I can use it or delete it as normal.

  • Cannot connect ipad2 to itunes, apps store and safari???

    I have checked everything i could check so far.
    My service provider told me to change the DNS numbers which i also did.
    My router is working excellent and my laptop is in perfect working condition.
    When i'm at the office my Ipad2 is working fine and connecting to all these apps, but once i'm home i keep getting all these errors and cant download anything.

    If no problem connecting your iPad with any other wi-fi network, the problem lies with your wireless router or network.

  • When downloading Firfox 4.0 on my mac, it downloads with a large circle on the app that look like a no smoking icon. When I drag the icon to app folder and launch it tell me Firefox does not support my system. Help

    When downloading Firefox it ha an icon when launched on my desktop to drag to app folder. The Firefox icon has a "No Smoking"
    universal Symbol. The symbol is a white circle with a line going diagnol thru the firfox icon. As in, "Not allowed".
    Need to know why firefox will not work on my mac.

    I have the same problem. I'm guessing that you get the same error message that Firefox is not compatible with your system's architecture? Information that would have been extremely useful before replacing functional software with useless trash.
