I have somehow accidentally removed the mac app store from my computer.  How do I get it back?

One day, I looked at my mac app store to see a question mark on the icon.  I am not sure how it was deleted but it seems that it has been.  I checked the applications folder, I searched for "app store" and "mac app store" and it seems to have vanished from my computer.
I would like to get it back.
Please help.

Here's the link for the v10.6.7 combo update which should reinstall the App Store.app for you.

    Another way is to open your Time Machine back up or clone (if you have one) and copy the App Store app from the /Applications to your Macintosh HD's /Application folder.
    Right click on the Time Machine icon in the Menu Bar.
    Select Enter Time Machine; then navigate to a date you know it was still there and copy if from the /Applications folder.

    Install the v10.6.7 combo update.
    Mac OS X v10.6.7 Update Combo
    Restart your Mac after the combo is installed.
    It's ok to do this even if you are already running v10.6.7.

    It is not about using the cloud you access this as I said from inside the itunes store

  • I don't have the Mac app Store in my computer, how i can download! (mac os x 10.6.8)

    i don't know how update or download the app: MAC APP STORE. i have the app but every time i open, that closes. Plues the icon is a blank sheet of paper whit two pencils.. help!!

    First, reinstall Mac OS X 10.6.8 with the Combo edition > http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1399 Then, you should be able to use the Mac App Store.
    If it doesn't work, reinstall Mac OS X. To do that, insert the Snow Leopard DVD, start your computer holding the C key and reinstall OS X. You won't lose anything. After reinstalling Mac OS X, open  > Software Update, and install 10.6.8

  • Completely disable or remove the Mac App Store

    Hello,
    I have several Macintosh computers which are on an unmanaged network, however I need to control what applications are installed on these machines without having to dig through Parental Controls on each machine. My question is simple: *how do I go about disabling or removing the Mac App Store from these machines after updating to 10.6.6 properly ?* -- avoiding the update itself isn't a solution as all future updates are likely to have it bundled in as well.
    Here's what I've tried so far:
    1. Restricting access to App Store.app via CHMOD in the Terminal - messy and would prefer not to have to go this route.
    2. Trashing App Store.app entirely - seems to reset the "App Store" link in the Apple menu back to "Mac OS X Downloads..." and does almost what I want except when opening unknown file types, the dialog asks you if you want to search the App Store at which point you hit the button and it does nothing. Seems a bit hacky/messy.
    I was hoping there would be some sort of toggle for this via a PLIST or something of the sort instead of resorting to deleting system files etc.
    Cheers,
    John

    If you have a computer lab or some similar environment where this app is inappropriate, just delete it. That's all you have to do. Yes, that means that the Search App Store button won't work when opening an unknown file type, but that's a minor issue that can be explained away easily by just telling people who encounter that issue that the App Store is disabled.
    As to everyone else (not John S.A.) who does not have a good reason to disable it and has some kind of aesthetic or ethical gripe about it... quit the baby-whining! Geez, if you don't like it, you don't have to use it! Delete it or don't, but quit crying about it! You can still purchase and install applications the same way you did before the App Store. Apple is not forcing you to use it, they are not forcing you to enter any personal information.
    I really don't get the whole "you get what the manufacturer wants you to have" nonsense. It is an option. Let's keep some perspective here, folks.

    I accidentally deleted the Reminders only on mac section in the reminders.app on mountain lion. How do I get it back?
    I checked @ http://www.apple.com/osx/whats-new/features.html#reminders and it says under Multi Accounts: "Reminders works with CalDAV services like Google Calendar and Yahoo! Calendar. You can also create reminders that appear only on your Mac."

    Quit Safai (double tap the home button, hold the app icon until it wiggles, tap , double tap the home button gain)
    Settings > iCloud > Turn off Safari > Delete from phone then turn Safari back on

  • I updated my 3GS to the ISO 5.1.1 .  It seems to have wiped my phone clean of apps, contacts, notes, etc.  How do I get them back?

    Hi all,
    I updated my 3GS to the ISO 5.1.1 .  It seems to have wiped my phone clean of apps, contacts, notes, etc.  How do I get them back?
    Appreciate for your guide amd help.

    All apps should be in your iTunes library along with all other iTunes content that was on the iPhone.
    Contacts are designed to be synced with a supported address book app on your computer.
    Notes can be synced with a supported app on your computer as well.
    Contacts and notes are included with your iPhone's backup but not any iTunes content which should be in your iTunes library on your computer. Your iPhone's backup should have been updated as the first step during the update process. If the backup was not restored, try restoring your iPhone with iTunes from that backup.

  • Why do I have an update on the Mac App Store for an Angry Birds app when I have not downloaded the app?

    I have a strange issue where the Mac App Store always shows an update available for an Angry Birds app I have never downloaded on my Mac. Everytime I click on it for update, it gives a strange Username for which the update is available.
         This is the username that comes up when I hit "Update"... I noticed this problem exists on my friends iMac too and it is the exact same email ID that shows on the screenshot above.
    Please help.

    Just to make sure, open Mac App Store and click Purchases. Can you pause the download and restart it?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You already have got Pages 5.0, but you still have got Pages 4.3, so Pages 4.3 is being opened instead of the newest version, being this the reason why you get a message telling you to update Pages to the most recent version.
    If you don't need the old version, open a Finder window, choose Applications in the sidebar and delete the old Pages icon or move it to an external drive. I don't recommend you to do this, as users are complaining about the lack of features of the new version.
    Instead, what you can do is to put the new Pages icon in the Dock by dragging it from the Finder window to the Dock, so you can open the new Pages version from the Dock and you can open all your documents with it after opening the application

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
