I have the Mac OS 10.6.7 and my App Store doesn't open, it shows the frame, but never the content, the system thinks, thinks, until I Shut the application down. What should I do?

Hi,
Install the v10.6.7 combo update available here.
It's ok to do this even if you are already running v10.6.7.
Restart your Mac after the combo is installed.
Then try the MAS.

What do you mean by "my ipods internet doesnt look how it should"?
What happens when you try to use the App store? Error message?

TS1702 How do I update my apps via App Store on iTunes 11? I can't see the "update" button. Thank you.

How do I update my apps via App Store on iTunes 11? I can't see the "update" button. Thank you.

You can download updates to your computer's iTunes via the Check For Updates button at the bottom of the Apps section of your iTunes library. When they've been downloaded, and if you haven't already done so, connect the iPad to your computer and select it on the left-hand side of iTunes (if you don't have the left-hand sidebar showing then you can enable it via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), and on the Apps tab on the right-hand side clicking the Sync button at the bottom of it should install the relevant updates.

My safari and my app store don't open in yosemite. Can you help me?

You probably ran a defective third-party "utility" such as "CleanMyMac" or "MacCleanse" that purports to "clean up" "junk" files. What it really does is to corrupt the operating system and many applications.
The first thing you need to do is remove that software according to the developer's instructions. Never install it, or anything like it, again. Then see below. If you use any iWork applications, you may need to delete them and redownload them from the App Store.
If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data, then reinstall the OS.* You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need the backup unless something goes wrong. If the system was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you may need the Apple ID and password you used.
If you use FileVault 2, then before running the Installer you must launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the FileVault startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) It will be nested below another icon with the same name. Click the Unlock button in the toolbar and enter your login password when prompted. Then quit Disk Utility to be returned to the main Recovery screen.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it. The same goes for Xcode. All other data will be preserved.
*The linked support article refers to OS X 10.10 ("Yosemite"), but the procedure is the same for OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later.

- Have you tried a reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Try syncing the iPod to your computer. Then delete from iTunes and sync. that should delete it from the iPod. Then redownload it.

TS1424 My app store shows different apple Id. I changed the ID in general settings under app store. Still no changes. Can't update apps now

Apps store on my iPad shows different apple ID. I changed the ID under general settings for apps store, but it didn't help. Still see different ID when entering the store. Now I can't update apps and resetting iPad doesn't help. What to do?

Use the correct login/password that the app was purchased with.

Some mac app icons disappears and mac App Store didn't open

some mac app icons disappears and mac appstore cant open

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

Tunes store and/or app store does not load/connect

any of my 5 Macs running 10.7 through 10.9 just discovered a few days ago not having searched the store in a few months. Hit the iTunes store in iTunes or App Store and nothing loads just says it's accessing the store then the content frame is blank. Submitting a search term does nothing at all, one Mac tells me my iPod is has finished sync. when I try to get the store through searching,say for a certain title/artist/movie/tv show, etc.I have the latest release of iTunes on all, my network is rock solid. 3 Macs are wired to net,the other 2 use WiFi. I know it worked before I have the protected data to prove it.
Any ideas?
Thanks

I need to download Mavericks 10.9.0 as my app store keeps coming up with an error. Any idea where I can just download it.? I tried to download the 10.9.2 combo but it needs 10.9.0 to be installed first.

Mac App store will not allow me to sign in...I have done all the updates on my Mac???

Mac App store will not allow me to sign in so I can't purchase or update app's...it has worked before? I have done all updates for Mac...

Do you not see the sign in sheet?
Mac App Store: Sign in sheet does not appear, or does not accept typed text
And if you have anti virus software installed, disable that before trying to access the App Store.
If you have Litlte Snich installed, that can prevent access to the App Store.
Keep in mind, you can't update your existing apps from another Apple ID if you create a new account.

My app store will not open

I have a new MacBook Pro and my app store will not open because of a problem. How do i reinstall my app store?

If you received an error message, what did it say?
You have 14 days to return the computer w/no questions asked. Plus you have 90 days of FREE phone tech support on top of your standard 1 year warranty unless you also purchased AppleCare which gives you an additional 2 years of coverage plus FREE phone support.
Strongly suggest that you take FULL advantage of the above before it runs out. Let Apple deal w/the problems.

App store will not allow updates

Every time I select update the system sends an error "not supported app".

App Store will not load after upgrading to mac osx 10.7.2

Upgraded my MacBook Pro to 10.7.2 and now App Store will not present any information... seems to hang trying to connect to the store. This is just one symptom of issues after the upgrade... Outlook, Safari, KeyChain Access, etc all failing to load or to operate properly.

Install the OS X Lion Update 10.7.2 Client Combo
Then restart your Mac.
If you still have problems, you may need to repair the startup disk.
Use Lion Recovery to do that.

I have a iMac that will not open programs like Iphoto. I would update the software but software update will not open and the app store will not open so I can't update the software
