Installed Maverics but App Store shows I still need to download it?

I installed Maverics over the weekend and by most accounts things went well. However, when I log into the App Store to check for updates it shows that I still need to download Maverics (full 5.2GB download not just an update). Anyone else seeing this?

  • I purchased iPhoto after installing Yosemite, but App store shows the download is "waiting"

    I purchased iPhoto after installing Yosemite, but App store shows the download is "waiting", with a greyed out box that says pause.

    Hi exyankee,
    Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, an app is stuck on waiting. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you isolate or resolve the issue.

  • Mac app store thinks i still need to download/install yosemite

    I downloaded and installed Yosemite on a 2009 MacBook Pro.  There's a popup that won't go away asking if I want to install the new SW.
    In the Mac App Store, under purchases it shows Yosemite to be downloaded.  However, checking 'about this mac', Yosemite has been installed.
    How to get the Mac App Store to recognize that it's installed and I don't need to download it?
    Secondary question - I saved the installer file to be able to use it on my other macs.  How will this affect the app store?  If I bypass the app store (so
    I don't have to repeat the 5GB download on each machine) - how do I get the app store to recognize this?

  • I have been download lion last night and it stopped. i tried again but APP Store show installed. How can I retry to install?

    I have tried to install lion last night and it stopped by slow internet connection. I paid through App Store and i tried again today but APP Store show installed. How can I install again?

    If you cannot resume the download, try to start the Installation Application in your /Applications Folder. If that does not work, delete the Installation Application and try to reload it. If that still does not work, contact Apple would be my best tipp

  • An app I downloaded is no longer showing up on my screen. The app store shows thar it needs to be updated, but the update bottom is colored light, not dark.

    I downloaded Pandora a while back. My 12 year old nieces were playing with my iPad and now the Pandora icon is not on my screen. The app store shows that it needs to be updated, but I can't do it. What can it do to recover my Pandora program?

    Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, my query is not so much about the sale of the company and the dream. I agree with you on that point. Good for them. My frustration is that this old app has now caused a glitch in my Apple App Store icon. I have a red badge with one update and it is referring to the old app that has been sold that needs to be updated. When I try to update the app it says no longer available for purchase. So I have since deleted that app in hopes that it would resolve the red badge issue. It has not. Somehow, that old app and the new app with the same name but by a different company has caused the glitch. I have reset all settings on my iPad, I have rebooted, I have deleted the app and still the red badge with the one update for the old app is there. Hmmm. . . I guess I need to take this into the Genius bar or wait for ios 7 in hopes that it will fix the glitch. Thanks again for your help.

    iCloud isn't syncing them on your phone.  You simply added the email account to your phone and enabled calendar and notes syncing with the email provider, and the calendar and notes appear in the calendar and notes apps on your phone.  You can do this with Gmail, Yahoo and other IMAP account.  iCloud email is just another IMAP account, but syncs notes with Apple's iCloud server just as Gmail syncs notes and calendars with Google's server.
    iCloud didnt' set up a non-iCloud account on your Mac.  When you check Mail in System Preferences>iCloud, it only creates an iCloud email account.  You can also add other email accounts to your Mac by going to System Preferences>Mail,Contacts,Calendars and clicking on the "+" sign on the bottom of the left sidebar.  If you added these other email accounts to your Mac before you upgraded to Mountain Lion, these were simply maintained on your Mac after you upgraded.

  • Mavericks installed but app store shows "download" not "installed"

    I installed Mavericks on my new (Christmas 2013 Macbook Air) and updated all other apps associated with Mavericks.  When I visit the app store it shows download on Mavericks app but all others show "installed".
    I checked the app installed and in "about this mac" it shows I have 10.9.1.  Why won't the app store show it is installed and should I do something else to complete the install?

    Asked and answered a zillion times since the advent of OS X Lion as a direct download. Please do a forum search before posting.
    The Mac App Store is about apps, not whether an OS is installed. What you got from the MAS was an app, the OS X Mavericks Installer. It self-deletes when it finishes successfully installing the OS. The reason it says Download is in case you need to download the installer app again.

  • An app icon dissappeared, but app store shows it was intalled.

    I installed Candy Crush Saga on my ipad 3 (iOS 6.1.2), the icon showed installing on desktop but dissappeared after installtion finished. The game is shown as installed in the "purchased items" in the App store, and I can open it from the app store. How can I let the icon to show on the desktop? I already restart my ipad many times. and i've reset my desktop layout with not luck.  I could uninstall and reinstall the app from the app store. Please help.

    How many homescreens do you have on your iPad ? There is a limit of 11, after which apps are only accessible via the spotlight search screen, or the app store. If you do have 11 screens then you could move your apps into folders so as to make more of them accessible via the screens - you can either create folders directly on the iPad, or via the screen mock-ups on the iPad's Apps tab when connected to your computer's iTunes

  • App store shows 1 updated needed on my phone

  • App store shows "download" when already installed.

    Why does the app store show mountain lion ready to "download" when I have already installed mountain lion? Do i need to download and reinstall?

    Well, because the App Store is only concerning itself with the Mountain Lion _installer_ (which is an application) and not the OS itself.
    The OS will be updated via Software Update, as it always is.  Note that in Mountain Lion that Software Updates appear in the App Store application, but this doesn't mean they're actually delivered _via_ the App Store.  Software Updates for non-Mac-App-Store applications are delivered as they always were, just with a different front-end UI.  It can be confusing ;-)

  • HT4137 I have just bought an iPad3. I have connected it to my computer.It has synched  but many of the apps I have on my iPad 1 are not appearing despite showing installed in the app store. How do I restore them?

    I have just bought a new iPad. I have connected it to my powerbool and snched it but many of the apps on my iPad1 are not appearing on the new iPad and showing installed in the app store. Please can anyone help me with this?

    Thanks for your advice, I went to the apple shop today for a face to face meeting with a tech and he checked everything and could not figure out why I was having this problem so we decided to give up on that account and create a whole new one for me using a different email address.
    Now I can download apps on both my iPhone and ipad2.
    If anyone is reading this in Brisbane Australia go to the Chermside apple shop and ask for Wade. He was fantastic!

  • App store shows apps installed but are not on my computer

    I recently installed Mavericks on my mid-2012 MacBook Air and was updating my apps but found that the App Store shows a several apps as installed but are not currently on my computer.  I saw a couple previous notes that addresses a special process to deauthorize/reauthorize iTunes which is supposed to correct this but the note was written in 2012 and also refers to a special right-click function that isn't working in Mavericks. 
    Any ideas how to fix this?
    Thanks!
