I have downloaded and installed the 10.6.8 V1.1 Combo pack but this didn't fix the problem.

I'm running 10.6.8, but i 'cannot connect to the app store'

ok so i've been reading around and i can't seem to find a definitive answer.
i'm running OS 10.6.8 but anytime i attempt to open the app store i get the message 'cannot connect to the app store'.
i've tried reinstalling the 10.6.8 combo update, but that hasn't worked, i've tried reinstalling the original snow leopard disk that came with the macbook pro, then doing software updates, but that hasn't worked. any advice would be greatly appreciated, just want to upgrade to lion but i have to have access to the app store to do so, frustrating. thanks in advance for any help,

Hello Rattisate,
Sorry to hear you are not able to connect to Wi-Fi on your MacBook Pro. I would be concerned about this too. You can find information on how to troubleshoot this in the following article:
Troubleshooting Wi-Fi issues in OS X Lion and Mac OS X v10.6

Follow the steps in the section labeled, "Symptom: My Mac does not connect to the Internet."
Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.

I own a 13-inch MacBook Pro and for the past day, my wifi on my laptop says I only have two bars of connection and is running very slow,but all of my other devices such as my iPhone and iPad are connecting perfectly to the wifi. How can I fix this? I have tried to shut my laptop off and let it rest and I have also re-started my wifi router three different times. Someone please help me with this problem so I can begin to use my laptop again as I take it to school and use it for class.
Thanks so much!

FCP, and all software on OSX, has a few different "preference" files (the extension is .plist), which store all your user settings. Each time you resize a window, change a setting, anything, this file is re-written. Kinda easy to see how they would become corrupt every now and then.
-Close FCP
-Navigate to User>Library>Preferences and delete com.apple.FinalCutPro.plist
-Navigate to User>Library>Preferences>Final Cut Pro User Data and delete Final Cut Pro 5.0 Prefs
-Empty your trash
Relaunch FCP and see if that worked.
Download FCP Rescue to make this process easier in the future. When you have FCP running really smooth, open FCP Rescue and create a backup of your preference files. If it starts acting wanky, just run FCP Rescue and Restore your backup preferences. Works really slick, and it's free.
EDIT: Or use the really simple explaination that X posted as I was typing.

Hey Nathan,
I know it can be a bit frustrating to try to get a version of an application that will work on an older iOS version. This article explains how to do it -

I'm now running OSX v. 10.6.8. I purchased OSX Mountain Lion from the app store

I'm now running OSX v. 10.6.8. I purchased OSX Mountain Lion from the app store & after about 40 minutes of "downloading" (started 40 or so minutes ago) my iMac restarted & I signed in. But OSX 10.6.8 is still there & the image of OSX Mountain Lion is in my dock with the caption "OSX Mountain Lion -- Paused" !!! ...Now ANOTHER 20 minutes have passed & no change nor other prompts nor info have come up!! WHAT'S GOING ON??? PLEASE HELP!!! ~~~THANK YOU!!!

THANKS SO VERY MUCH, mende1, for so quickly responding to my plea for HELP!!
I had never turned my iMac off so I still don't understand why the download paused, & when I looked in my Applications folder there was no Mountain Lion, but your words, "However, you can pause and resume the download as many times as you want" encouraged me to look deeper & try harder!! I clicked & double-clicked (& multi-clicked!) the Mtn Lion icon in my dock to no avail but finally, I clicked & HELD the click for about 7 seconds . . . . . . . & then a little pop-up came & asked me if I want to "Resume the download" or stop it!! So I slid the cursor over to "Resume..." & it's downloading again!! ~~I HOPE!! I guess 4.4 GB of OS update will take more than a little time to get in there!
~~~Again, THANK YOU so MUCH & God less you with a WONDERFUL time with your studies & future dreams!!!

FCPX crashed and I reported it here. Tom Wolsky suggested I trash prefs, perform an fsck, reboot and redownload FCPX from the App store. The reboot was okay but Safari will not let me access the App Store to redownload FCP. I'm running 10.6.8 but the App Store icon is grayed out. I get a "Safari doesn't recognize addresses starting with macappstore."
How do I get to the App Store to get FCPX back? I'm using the Trial version now.

How are you linking to the App Store from Safari? From this page?

I am unable to connect to the iTunes Store. This issue began yesterday, 3/11/13. I previously have been able to connect to the store successfully on this computer which runs Windows 7 and Security Center since November. I also used the iTunes Store on my previous computer for several years. I am able to connect to the store with my new iPod Touch 5th generation. I did a Google search for Error Code -1202 but did not find any pertinent results. I would greatly appreciate any assistance in troubleshooting this situation. Thank you!

I cannot connect to the iTunes Store on my PC. I am running Windows 7. I have run the updates and the flushdown. I've run the repair download ... no results. Help!

iTunes still does not work properly. It will let me play the music, but it still won’t let me connect to the iTunes store. I did all of the updates, including the "repair missing files" and did a flush and everything comes back as just fine.
I’ve thought about totally uninstalling and reinstalling, but I don’t want to lose all the settings and configurations. Hopefully we can figure out what went wrong.
Last week, I was trying to download an app a couple of days ago and it seemed to get stuck. We had to do a “hard shutdown”to get the computer to shutoff and get out of the iTunes program. I don't know if that had anything to do with my problems. Hopefully any suggestions will help me get back into the iTunes Store. I miss my iTunes!!

Try iTunes 9.2.1 which will run on OS X 10.4.11. iTunes 9.2.1, http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1056
You also need at least Safari 4.0.3 to connect to the iTunes Store. You can download Safari 4.1.3 for OS X 10.4.11 (Tiger) here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1069

I cannot connect to the iTunes Store running iTunes 8.2.1 for Mac OS X

I have an old eMac (800 Ghz G4) running OSX 10.4.11 and iTunes 8.2.1. For unknown reasons I can no longer access the iTunes Store. It only displays a page about upgrading to 10.3.1, which won't run on my computer. I thought I'd try reinstalling 8.2.1 but the only installer I could find is for a G3.
Any ideas? Thanks!

Can I run a factory reset on my MacBook Pro and later reinstall my purchased apps, or will I have to pay for them again?

My MacBook Pro is a work computer, and my company may need to run a factory reset on it. I don't have much faith in their abilities to save any of my info, so I am backing all my photos and videos up on an external hard drive, but I am concerned I will lose my purchased apps in the process.
Is there any way I can get those back later if I need to? There's a lot of purchased apps on my MacBook Pro.
Thanks!

Like posted above if you purchased them from the Mac App store all you have to do is Login to the MAS with the same Apple ID used to buy them and they will be available for Re-Download and install.
If you purchased some of them from the developers website then the developer might of sent you a registration code in an email. Find those and make a Text Document out of them and then Print that text Doc and save it to that external for safe keeping.
You can then go back to the developer website and re-download their program and install it using that key/reg code to authorize it.

I cannot connect to the iTunes store. I'm running on Windows XP.

When I try to connect to the store, I do not receive an error message, but I cannot connect.
I've run the diagnostics, and it reports that iTunes "cannot establish a secure link."
When I click on the "Help" button, I get nowhere. It says that I am not connected to the Internet, and that is not true.
I use Norton 360 for my security software. I've update my firewall protection to add iTunes. This has not solved the problem.
My Windows firewall is disabled in favor of the Norton software.
Can anyone help? Thanks!

With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

When I try to open Firefox, I get a message saying that firefox is already currently running, although it is not running. Close and try again or restart computer. How can I fix this?

I always close Firefox when I am finished with the web. When I try to open it later, I often get a message saying that firefox is currently running, so close it first. As far as I can tell, firefox is not running. The message then says to restart your computer and try again. I restart my computer and then firefox opens.

When I try to download a program, the pop-up only gives me the option to "save" the program, instead of giving me the option to "run" the program. How do I fix this?

I have tried downloading iTunes (and Quicktime), but instead of giving me the option to "run" the program, Firefox only gives me the option to "save" the program (which I already tried, does not work to give me access to the downloaded program). Is there a setting I need to change?

That's intentional, because running exe files from your browser is a major security concern. You can run the file after you have downloaded it. If you don't know where it is on your computer, go to '''Tools > Downloads''', and double-click on it from the Downloads window.
