Is it in your Applications folder by chance and just not in your Dock? Or is it nowhere to be found? If it's in your Applications folder just drag it to the Dock. If not, then follow jgelements advice.

    No sound from Doom3 after installed from the App store onto my intel iMac 10.7.3  Any solutions?

    Just just launch the Mac App Store, select the "Purchased" tab and download MainStage or any other application you already bought.

  • Failed to install App Store on my Mac Book 5.

    I followed the instructions to download app store on my mac. I went to Software update, and updated my system, then I restarted my macbook without seeing any dialog to install App Store. After restarted my mac book, I was looking for App Store. I found it in downloads, and I deleted it and emptied my trash can by accident. So I failed to install App Store and try to update my system in order to download the app store again on my Mack Book; however, it says "Your software is up to date."
    SO how can I get the App Store after updating the software, but failed to install? I want App Store, and I am Snow Leopard. It's been trying nuts for trying to figure out how to get the App Store.

    What instructions do you refer to & where did you find them? As has been mentioned by several other people, the Mac App Store is a part of the OS 10.6.6 update. Apple does not offer it as a separate download. Even if it were available as a separate download, it will not work with any version of Leopard (OS 10.5) or any version of Snow Leopard less than 10.6.6.
    Click on the "About this Mac" item in the Apple menu. In the window that pops up, right under the words "Mac OS X" you will see the version of the OS you are running. If it says you are running 10.5.8, then you are running Leopard, not Snow Leopard, & Software Update will only offer you updates for that OS version. To upgrade the OS from Leopard to Snow Leopard you must buy a retail copy of Snow Leopard & install it. Once you do, Software Update will offer you updates for that OS version, including the 10.6.6 one that includes the Mac App Store.

    That's a pre installed app that cannot be deleted.
    Try using the search screen to the left of your Home screen.
    If you can't find it that way, then restore the device.

    What's the best way to remove installed App Store apps?

    Drag & drop them into the Trash. Or, if you want to get their auxiliary files, use the free AppCleaner.

  • How do I get an app from the App Store onto my iphone?

    How do I get an app from the App Store onto my iphone?

    If you bought it on your computer, then sync it as you would anything else.
    If you bought it on your iphone, then it would be downloaded to your iphone.
    Maybe you should read the manual.

  • How to re-install Mainstage purchased from the App Store onto new drive

    I recently purchased Mainstage 2.2.1 from the App Store. It automatically downloaded and installed the app onto my drive (not giving me a physical installer dmg, I guess this is normal). My system was slow so I decided to buy an SSD drive and install it in place of the Superdrive as a dedicated music drive. After installing Lion and booting from this new drive I went to the App store assuming I could simply re-install the app but there is no option for that. Does anyone know how I can do this?
    Thanks

    Just just launch the Mac App Store, select the "Purchased" tab and download MainStage or any other application you already bought.

  • Have OS X 10.6.3 and am unable to install App Store to install Lion or Mountain Lion Software to update to Maverick....HELP!!!!

    I recently purchased the Lion and Mountain Lion software to upgrade my MacBook Pro enough to be able to install Maverick (I realized now I only need Lion but oh well).  I'm currently running on OS X 10.6.3.  I have codes to install Lion using the App Store, however  don't have the App Store installed.  I cannot install it, as it says I must be running a version of OS X 10.6.6 or higher in order to install the App Store......Am I just completely screwed here???  Does anyone know another way to install this software without the App Store?!  Thank you!!!!

    1. You don’t need Lion either.
    2. Run the Software Update pane of System Preferences or install the 10.6.8 combo updater manually.

  • How to i get the App Store onto my mac if it doesn't have it?

    i currently just bought a new iphone 5.  I would like to update my MAC OSx but i can't because everything is done through the "app store" on the computer.  My computer doesn't seem to have that function.  Is there a way to get it put onto my computer?

    If you are running v10.7 Lion on your Mac as your profile suggests, then the App Store should be installled.
    Three ways to access the App Store.
    Click your Apple menu icon top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click App Store.
    Or, from your Dock 
    Or launch the App Store from your Applications folder.
    If you still can't locate the App Store, installing the OS X Lion Update 10.7.5 (Client Combo) will reinstall the App Store for you.
    Restart your Mac after the combo is installed.

  • Lion: Can't re-download from App store "newer version???"

    So I am trying to create a USB backup for booting/repair.  Apple has what I thought a great solution here... http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718
    towards bottom of page.
    It states you can re-download from the App store from the Purchased tab by using "Option" and clicking on Lion to make it turn to install.
    That all works, but when I click on install it says I have a newer version and if I want to install I have to move the other one to the trash. 
    That seems kind of counter intuitive to me.  Any suggestions how I can create a .dmg on a USB drive????
    I have my machined backed up to Time Machine so not terribly worried as I could possibly use the Command R on boot to recover, but a thumb drive would be easier.  Thanks...Beo63

    I see.. I was getting that message on the Lion app page I misunderstood your instructions and was option clicking on the Lion Icon which made 'installed' turn into '£20.99' then when I clicked on the £20.99 I got the same message as you about an older version.
    When I quit the app store - reopened and just held option when I clicked on the purchases tab - it worked... second time. with the installed button being dark grey so I could re-download.
    If your doing the same as above and still getting the newer version message I'm afraid Im stumped. Best of luck!

  • Downgrade App store bought version of ARD admin?

    I bought ARD admin 3.5.3 via the App Store a while back to control computers at work from home on my Macbook Pro 17 inch late 20122 occasionally and it worked great.
    Following the 3.6.1 upgrade, all attempts to connect to any computer at work crash the Netgear incoming broadband router. This is with the ports mapped to various single macs to control, mostly running Snow Leopard.
    I wanted to downgrade to 3.5.3 and followed the tip here exactly
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/20292728#20292728
    But since this is from a support/download version of the Admin tool, it asks for the serial again, which I never received as it was an App store purchase.
    I can only now re-install 3.6.1 from the App Store.
    Does anyone know a way of getting the older version from the App Store? Maybe I'm missing a very obvious trick here (like a "Legacy versions" button?).
    Many thanks in advance
    James

    I have a similar issue - I have 3 copies of ARD 3.6.1 running perfectly on Lion systems - but also one "old" PPC Tiger system which detect as running ARD 2.2 (though I never actually installed 2.2 I assume it built into Tiger). I think ARD 3.4 is compatible with Tiger but wonder if anyone has got thise to work somehow as I also don't have relevant serial numbers.
    Fortunatly remote access does work to the Tiger system but some of the other function don't work (e.g. remote package install).

  • Is it possible to install App Store apps without an internet connection?

    My wife and I both use the same Apple ID for everything.  If she were at home, this would be a no brainer; but she is now stationed in Afghanistan.  She currently does not have access to the internet.
    So...is it possible for me to download some games from the app store then copy them to a jump drive so that she can install them on her lap top over there?  Her new laptop was 'authorized' through our iTunes account before she left the states.
    Thanks for your assistance.

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.

    Simple drag & drop apps that are mostly what are available in the Mac App Store (MAS) should be fine to burn to CD/DVD or a USB thumb drive and install on another Mac. I would test the apps to make sure that it works for those that you wish to send to her.
    I wouldn't put any weight to the BS about fine print. Apple's terms of use for the MAS are that you can install the apps on all of the Macs that you own or that are in your control. There is no restriction on the location of those Macs; home or office, USA or Afganistan!
