HT4479 Mac app Store Issue: Trying to download the app store application so we can install recently purchased software update of 10.7 but unable to do so because we don't have updated software. Need assistance in installing update that's already been purc
Trying to downloads App store application for the sole pupose of downloading a purchased OS update 10.7. We cannot download the app store until we have a software update but need the software update to download the app store.
There is no Mac App Store app that you can download. The Mac App Store is installed with the update of previous installations of Snow Leopard to version 10.6.8. v1.1.
Does your Mac have OS X Snow Leopard installed? If not, you have to install it before you may go further.

I have bought a new macbook pro retina 13. I am not too familiar with Mac yet. I had an apple account with my iphone 4 which I stopped using a month ago. Now when I was trying to download the apps from that account but I dont know how to do this and I am unable to do so. I would be grateful if anyone can advise me with regards to this?
You cannot download the same Apps that you have on your iPhone. They are two seperate stores.
The store you have on your iPhone is the same for any iDevice (iPad, iPhone and iPod)
The store on your MacBook is only for Macs. -
I tried to download the " app of the day " and was told that I was in the US store and that I needed to go to the Canada store. I never encountered this before .
As far as I know I registered in the US store. Does anyone have any advice.

I updated my 3gs and it wiped all my apps, now when trying to rebuy the apps it is asking for a postcode(i live in ireland where there are none)and it also will not accept my payment card type.any help greatly appreciated
I cannot find this 300GB "Backup" in the Finder, only in the Storage info when I check "About This Mac".
You are probably using Time Machine to backup your MacBook Pro, right? Then the additional 300 GB could be local Time Machine snapshots. Time Machine will write the hourly backups to the free space on your hard disk, if the backup drive is temporarily not connected. You do not see these local backups in the Finder, and MacOS will delete them, when you make a regular backup to Time Machine, or when you need the space for other data.
See Pondini's page for more explanation: What are Local Snapshots? http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
I have restarted my computer, but the information remains the same. How do I reclaim the use of the 300GB? Why is it showing up as "Backups" when it used to indicate "Photos"? Are my photos safe on the external drive?
You have tested the library on the external drive, and so your photos are save there.
The local TimeMachine snapshot probably now contains a backup of the moved library. Try, if connecting your Time Machine drive will reduce the size of your local Time Machine snapshots. -
I have created my apple Id.Now when i m downloading any app it is asking my credit card details.I have made multiple payments while trying to download the app.But the app is not getting downloaded,it is showing the message cannot connect to the i tune store.What should i do to download the applications.
Ok, first of all don't keep purchasing the application, and if you've purchased it multiple times, contact iTunes billing department immediately. They SHOULD only send one actual confirmation in and the rest of the "pending" charges will drop off (how long that takes is up to your credit card company, not iTunes), but you should be sure.
Second, sometimes when they are uploading a lot of new stuff at certain times it can cause the store to screw up, or any number of other reasons could be a factor why you can't connect to the iTunes store, be it on their end or on your end even. Wait a little bit and try again via "Check for available downloads" or via your "Purchased" option on the iTunes store main page.
IF the app you purchased isn't there and you are sure your credit card was charged, then you will need to contact iTunes to find out why you can't download the app. -

Hi, I getting a "playback error message" on youtube App. I tried to reinstall the app and to reset and restore the device and all these things didn't help.can you please help me
That's a peculiar one to get in the context of a QuickTime uninstall.
Which particular version of QuickTime for Windows are you currently running? (7.7.5, 7.7.4, something earlier?) -
I can not delete an email I get a message218130.emlx” couldn’t be copied because you don’t have permission to access “Messages”
Actually, the Finder solution did not work for me, but here's what did:
Quit Mail (for safety's sake).
Open Terminal (it's in Utilities folder usually, but since I updated to ML it's in a folder called Other for some reason)
Once Terminal is open, you'll want to login as ROOT. You do this as follows:
Type
sudo -i
Then hit Enter/Return. You'll be promoted for your system password. Hopefully you'll remember it. Enter your password then hit Enter/Return.
You'll then be at what's known as a root prompt.
At this point BE VERY CAREFUL. You have the ability at this point to completely destroy your machine beyond repair. Only type what I list below:
To find the folder that contains the email message you'll need to type the following:
find . -name "218130.emlx"
Hit Enter/Return
This will take a minute or two but what should appear in the list of other items that appear is something along the lines of the following (it won't be exactly this but will look LIKE this) I've replaced some personally identifying info:
./Users/yourname/Library/Mail/V2/POP-youremailaddress@yourmailserver/INBOX.mbox/ 0355DF0D-5E99-4798-B79E-48D71E68AF34/Data/3/2/Messages/23219.emlx
This line describes the location of the offending email. You know what to put yourself into this directory:
cd /Users/yourname/Library/Mail/V2/POP-youremailaddress@yourmailserver/INBOX.mbox/0 355DF0D-5E99-4798-B79E-48D71E68AF34/Data/3/2/Messages/
Hit Enter/Return
Notice, I left of the name of the actual email address. You'll need to be sure you type the location EXACTLY or this won't work. You want to be in the Messages folder. You'll know you're there because your Terminal prompt will look something like this:
Your Name - iMac:Messages
Then just to be sure you're in the right place, type
ls
Hit Enter/Return
You should then see something like this:
iMac:Messages root# ls
23013.emlx 23096.emlx 23100.emlx 23156.emlx 23210.emlx 23213.emlx 218130.emlx
You'll see the offending message. Now, you delete ONLY this message. Type:
rm -f 218130.emlx
That's RM at the start above. You'll need to type it in lower case. Be sure that's all you type.
Hit Enter/Return
You'll should be disappointed at the results because it will look like nothing happened. You can hit ls and Enter/Return one more time and the offending file should be gone.
EXIT TERMINAL. DO NOT TYPE ANYTHING ELSE. DO NOT "POKE AROUND". THIS IS NOT THE PLACE TO EXPLORE. SERIOUS SYSTEM DAMAGE CAN BE CAUSED FROM HERE. EXIT TERMINAL NOW.
Now re-open Mail - the message will still appear to be in there, but magically, you can delete it. you can also delete it from your Trash for good measure. -

Itunes 11.4.0.18 crashes everytime it tries to download the app Tink
My iTunes started crashing a few seconds after start.
After some troubleshooting i have found at its trying to download an app I have on my iPhone that causes it to crash.
It’s a financial app called Tink.
The only workaround I can think of is starting iTunes when the computer isn't connected to the internet. But there must be something to do! Can I force itunes to download the app from my phone?
Can I somehow make it NOT trying to auto download the app (turning off the option to download purchases from other devices does not resolve this)?
I’ve tried starting itunes in safemode and I have performed a repair of the installation.It's very simple ....just open iTunes and then you will be able to see a Library Tab on your right hand side ...just click on down arrow appearing on Library icon, a drop down will appear then click on apps from that drop down. It will move you to another page containing apps, here you can delete just by right clicking or you can also select an app and press delete button to remove app from iTunes.

When I go directly to the hbo go website or Netflix website and try to download the apps directly I keep getting the message, "your request Could not be completed." after the message pops up I am then bumped to the App store. Does anyone have a solution?

i don't have a software to my general in setting. how can i upload this software?
You probably have an older version of iOS, possibly iOS 4. That's why you don't see Software update under Settings, General.
All you have to do in this case is update iTunes to the latest version, connect the iPhone to your computer and update to iOS 6. At that point you can update future iPhone 4's firmware directly on the phone. -
