I just recently did an update to my computer that the app store told me to update. And now my battery is draining and my computer is heating up and the fan is always on now. What do i do?

Just did an update that the app store told me i needed to do. The computer had to be restarted and everything im running verson 10.8.4 i believe it was a RAM update. What do i do? I feel like this is bad for my computer and i dont want it to overheat and what not.

Runaway applications can shorten battery runtime, affect performance, and increase heat and fan activity

On OSX10.8, friend logged in using his appleID now the app store is trying to update apps I don't have.

On OSX10.8, friend logged in using his appleID now the app store is trying to update apps I don't have. How can I clean this up? I don't see the usual ignore update like I did back on older versions of the OS. I don't really want to just ignore it I want to clean it all up. How can I make sure there is nothing under his name or ID on my new laptop?

The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
The MAS doesn't usually offer updates for apps not present or not in your purchased list. Are you sure that the apps are not to be found on a mounted drive or partition, such as a backup?

I cannot change apple id when the app store asks me to update anything

i cannot change apple id when the app store asks me to update anything

App Store products can only be updated by signing in to the store with the same Apple ID that was originally used to download them. You can't update anything, including your own purchases, as long as there are pending updates linked to the other ID.
If you can't sign in with the other ID, you have to delete all the apps that are linked to it. If you don't know which apps those are, see below.
1. Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
2. In the Finder, press command-F to open a search window, or select
          File ▹ Find
from the menu bar. In the search window, select
          Search: This Mac
from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu of search criteria, initially showing Kind. From that menu, select
          Other...
A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select
          Raw Query
as the criterion, then click OK or press return.
Now there will be a text box to the right of the menu of search criteria. That's where you enter the raw search query. Click in that box and paste the text you copied earlier by pressing command-V.
3. The search window will now show all the App Store products that are installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
4. At least one of the apps in the Spotlight search results is not among your purchases in the App Store. Delete each such item by following the instructions in the Apple Support article linked above.
5. Quit and relaunch the App Store.
If you find these instructions confusing, ask for an alternative method.

The App Store says I have updates for I-Photo and Garage Band. When I try to update I get the following message: You have updates available for other accounts To update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it." Both apps came with my computer and as far as I know I only have one Apple account. Any thoughts? Thanks.

Thanks for you reply. I'm 99% positive that I'm using the user id and password that I used to set up my computer. That's why I'm stumped. I read the solution someone else suggested (type your user name without @gmail and create a new password. When I tried it, I was asked for my birthday. It didn't recognize it. I know I got my birthday correct. Oh well...

Have you tried signing out of your iTunes & App Store on your device and then back in again - Settings>iTunes & App Store, click on Apple ID, then on Sign Out. Then sign in again and see if it accepts the password.
If that doesn't resolve the issue, try resetting your device (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the reset is complete, the Slide to Unlock screen will display. See if the problem is resolved.
Cheers,

What I've to do if the App Store told me my payment method not valid

What I've to do if the App Store told me my payment method not valid

Then contact your bank and find out why the authorization is being refused.
Note that debit cards are not accepted in all markets. You need a valid credit card with a billing address in the country of the store in which you're trying to set up an account. You must also be physically present in that country.
You can not, for example, set up an account in the US or UK store if you are in Russia.

HT1338 My Numbers update shows 2.3 but the app store says I was updated to3.1?

My Numbers update shows 2.3 but the app store says I was updated to 3.1?

You should have both versions. After the update, the old versions are moved to an iWork '09 folder in the Applications folder.
The new versions are completely rewritten and are missing some features. I imagine that is why the kept the old versions arround. It is much like iMovie, Final Cut X, etc.
They have been slowly adding features as they go.

HT5248 The App Store doesn't show update 9.2 for Pages - What could I do?

When I open pages, I get a notification that I can update to pages 9.2, but when pages opens the App Store, the store doesn't come with any update.
I think it is because I have installed pages via an installation disk.
How can I make pages update to 9.2?
Thank you for answering my question!

iWork '09 installed from the retail disk or from the downloaded trial must be updated through Software Update. In Mountain Lion Software Update has been "rolled into" the Mac App Store. Choose Software Update from the Apple menu just like you always have & the Mac App Store will launch. Depending on what you have that needs updating you may see two sections in the MAS window.
But, as always, if you're not running the latest versions of the iWork apps installed from a retail box or the downloaded trial & Software Update says your software is up to date, make sure the applications are where the installer initially put them. The updaters are very picky. If the location is not where the updater is programmed to look or if the folder doesn't have the name the updater looks for, it will not work. The applications cannot be renamed or moved. If you installed from the downloaded trial or the retail box, they must be in the iWork '09 folder in Applications. That iWork folder must be named iWork '09. If it doesn't have the '09 Software Update won't find them & the updaters won't work.
You can also download the standalone updater from this page.

How can I change my apple ID from the APP store so I can update my app? my computer is stuck with an old email and won't let me change it..

Hello, Im trying to upgrade Imovie and whatever app are about to update in the future, the problem is the my Imac is stuck with an old email on the APP store. I try to change it and nothing happen, when I put my apple ID it send me to change the password and what Im trying to do is to put my new email in the system so would be able to update my computer. You know when you press the update button a little box drop with your email and all you have to put is your password thats where my old email is stuck pls someone help me with that little problem i'll appreciate it... thanks

An Apple ID isn't necessarily "linked" with your email other than for recovery reasons. So, as long as you know the Apple ID password, an old email isn't catastrophic. Apple ID != e-mail.
Now, if it's really bugging you and you really want to change it, if you log in to http://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address, this should update your Apple ID. There will be a couple hoops involved with this (i.e. verification of email change by sending email to rescue/alternate email. Alternate email can't be the same as the new primary. The new primary can't have ever been used as/with an Apple ID. etc...).

HT5957 After downloading iOS 7 on my mini iPad I cannot download apps fron the Apps store.likewise I cannot update the apps that needs to be updated. Please advise.

After downloading iOS 7 on my iPad mini I cannot download apps from the Apps store. Likewise I cannot update the existing apps which needed updating. In addition apps would just close or hang up.please help. How can I correct these?

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
I'm curious...
What happens when you attempt to download from the App store?

Why must I log on to the app store to get an update to iLife?

I paid for the software. Why can't I just download it through Software update like I do on the Mac that came with the same software? What a pain in the butt!
I won't buy anything from the App store ever again. If I can't get a disc at my local Mac supplier, I won't buy it.

There's a difference between purchasing components of the iLife suite of software and purchasing them separately via the Mac App Store.
Whatever you download from the MAS... that's where the updates will be available.
You had to have agreed to the MAS terms of use before making purchases. Very important to read beforehand.

Unwanted App which the app store wants me to update, and I cannot delete it.

I have an App wanting to be updated that I cannot update or remove because it was not downloaded on my account. It has been there for over a year and it does not show up anywhere on my computer. Why is it in my app store if it is not on my account? Spotlight does not find it in the search.

You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store alert. For example, the App Store may prompt you to update "Angry Birds" or "Twitter," but the hacked app may be something else entirely. Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you must carry out a systematic search with Spotlight.
1. Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
2. In the Finder, press command-F to open a search window, or select
File ▹ Find
from the menu bar. In the search window, select
Search: This Mac
from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu of search criteria, initially showing Kind. From that menu, select

A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select
Raw Query
as the criterion, then click OK or press return.
Now there will be a text box to the right of the menu of search criteria. That's where you enter the raw search query. Click in that box and paste the text you copied earlier by pressing command-V.
4. The search window will now show all the App Store products that are installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
At least one of the apps in the Spotlight search results is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash, after quitting it if it's running. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
Quit and relaunch the App Store. Test.
If you find these instructions confusing, ask for an alternative method.

I just recently did an update to my computer that the app store told me to update. And now my battery is draining and my computer is heating up and the fan is always on now. What do i do?
