Iphoto 11 won't install from apps store

I purchased iPhoto 11 from the app store (on my Macbook running Lion). It won't install - when I click the install button it just "runs" for a couple seconds without any further prompting or anything. Is there something I'm missing here?

    I have a problem with Imovie. Just brought an macbook 15 retina , iLife install and Imovie was working. I than did a data migration from my old macbook pro and now it crashes on start up. I tried to re-install from app store but no option to re-install, just installed and it greyed out.

    Well, my two-month-old MBP has no qualms about booting from a no-name external USB HD I put together...
    Given that is is a common point of failure, I would imagine a large Apple Store should keep a stock of HD's on hand.
    Now since you're a bit desperate and the genie pops up til Saturday and you seem to be the enterprising kind, let's try an experiment: if you have room enough in the external HD and assuming it isn't a Time Machine volume, why don't you plug it in, stick the Install CD and see if the installer lets you select the external drive as the install target. If you can install Leopard on it, on top of the backup without reformatting, and the Mac can boot from the drive afterwards, at least you would have some functionality restored and would be able to pull your stuff from the internal HD. Apple says booting from USB drives is not supported but that does not equate to not possible; some brands do work. Risks? Always. You can always lose your backup. Like I said, a challenge for an enterprising gal....
    Next time around, consider having a bootable external clone at hand for rainy days. I keep three myself...
    P.S. Since I'll be in the Dallas-FW area in late June, I can volunteer with the confetti....

  • FaceTime can't be installed on "Macintosh HD" because the version of Mac OS X is too new. I removed all traces of FaceTime and still not able to install from App store. New to macbook pro with Lion

    FaceTime can’t be installed on “Macintosh HD” because the version of Mac OS X is too new. I removed all traces of FaceTime and still not able to install from App store. New to macbook pro with Lion.any help with this would be greaty appreciated.

    FaceTime is included in Lion. The App Store version is for 10.6. If you deleted it, restore it from a backup, or reinstall the Mac OS.

  • IPhone 4 won't download from app store

    iPhone 4 won't download apps from app store. They start and then hang. This all started after I had to reset and restore
    My phone.

    This issue is happening on older editions of the phone as well.  I'm experiencing the issue with my 3GS and have the same issue when actually using iTunes on my MacBook. 

  • Apps won't install via App Store

    A week ago I got a used iphone 5 for my GF so she could log our newborn's daily achievements, but the phone won't allow the download of apps from the App Store.  If I click on the price/install button, it circles as if it's downloading, and then it returns to the same original Price button.  Trying numerous times doesn't do the trick.   No error messages appear.  I've reset network settings, as well as resetting all settings.  I've also installed the firmware (option-restore) and I've used iExplorer to access the phone's download folder and force it to remake the database file.  None of these fixed the issue.  The phone WILL allow apps onto it if they are downloaded onto my macbook pro and synced but that's a very unsatisfying solution since it's my laptop which I use most of the day while she would probably want to be perusing apps to use. 
    The only other known issue with the phone is that the front camera doesn't work properly, and trying to use it also renders the back camera inaccessible till the phone restarts.  This seems like hardware to me, while the app issue seems like software, but perhaps they are somehow related.  I'm also wondering if the app problem could be related to a corrupt file in her appleID account, or to the fact that i've installed apps on her phone via my itunes (perhaps it's some kind of user permission problem). 
    Anyway, I have no idea what to try next.  Surely someone here has suggestions.

  • XCode 4.2.1 won't download from App Store

    I am new to the developers world. So I decided with great excitment to download and start using xcode. I go to the app in MAS and it just won't download it gets stuck at 10 mb. So I try to download the dmg from the developers site. This time it seems successful. But then when I try to use the dmg it says the file is corrupt. I just cant get to download or install this application? Why does everything seem so hard with the new operating systems!?
    I have not installed previous versions of this app and I am using OS 10.7.3, I am a paid developer account holder. All my specs seem to be fine to download and install, so why won't it work? Any light on this matter would be greatfully appreciated.
    Regards,
    James

    found this and it seems to have worked for the APP Store Issue.
    Bad news is I have waisted almost 2 GIG of download getting them DMG from the Dev centre
    I had the same problem on a MacBook Air that ships with Lion
    This is how you fix it
    0. Close Every App (Safari, iTunes, AppStore, etc)
    1. Launch Finder
    2. Press CMD+SHIFT+G (or click on Go then Go To Folder)
    3. Type the following /var/folders
    4. Open up Console (Spotlight Console and launch it)
    5. Open The AppStore
    6. Try to buy something free and you will see this message "The product distribution file could not be verified. It may be damaged or was not signed."
    7. Switch to Console and look at the error message
    8/31/11 6:50:37.121 PM App Store: FRPurchaseManager: Preflight operation for 415571499 failed with error: Error Domain=com.apple.appstore Code=0 "The product distribution file could not be verified.

It may be damaged or was not signed., NSUnderlyingError=0x7f9b2464ac40 "The requested URL was not found on this server."}
    In my case the problem was some file in the /var/folders/3p
    5. Quit AppStore
    6. I deleted the entire 3p folder (it gets recreated when you launch AppStore). If you really want to be safe, create a copy of that folder.
    You don't need to restart. Just Launch AppStore and it works!

  • Installing from app store????

    Ok my first attempt at using ANYTHING from the app store failed. I downloaded (and it appeared to install properly), one of the freebies, "WeatherBug", and although it appeared to install (I had the icon on the home screen and when I went back to the app store, it said it was installed), when I selected it, all it done was just go back to the original "Home" screen from which I opted to run it. As I said, this is my first attempt at the app store. Is there something I'm missing here? Seems pretty straight forward (download, install, run). I would appreciate any help anyone can give me. Thanks.

    I can't install either, but I KNOW why, and the answer is ASTONISHING. For whatever reason, my iPhone is, when I push the APP STORE icon, accessing -- get ready for it -- the APP STORE IN GERMAN!!!! All the descriptions are in GERMAN, and attempts to download from the APP STORE get a message that "Your account is only authorized to make purchases fro the US iPhone App Store". I can't even download and install FREE applications ("KOSTENLOS" in GERMAN. Sigh...)
    I and my iPhone are in, and have never left, the US -- haven't even left the STATE. I am on the ATT network (i.e. I'm not using a "jailbroken" iPhone".) And, a friend holding another iPhone right next to mine, accesses the correct store (the US STORE).
    A call to iPhone tech support yielded nothing but frank astonishment, no explanation, and no suggestion as to how to "fix" this other than to wipe and restore the phone. Won't bother. I won't spend this SUNDAY wiping and restoring my phone, re-entering BLUETOOTH codes for earpieces, picking my favorite cities, stocks, and on, just to see how well AIM works on my iPhone (worked just fine on my TREO -- see below...)
    (personal note -- I am DEEPLY disappointed with my one year experience with the iPhone. Switching from this device from my TREO 650 was easily one of the biggest mistakes of my personal career. I paid $600 and lost 50% of the functionality of my previous device, overnight. Only my 20 year brand loyalty to APPLE, the prospect of derisive comments from my BLACKBERRY carrying co-workers, and my general stubbornness, have kept this device in my pocket. It is the first APPLE purchase I've ever regretted, and sincerely hope it is the last -- one to regret, not last purchase-- I have my eye on an APPLE TV...heh...)

  • IPhoto 9.2 wont load from App Store

    Hi folks,
    after updating to 10.7.2 and all iOS davoces to iOS 5 i saw in the App Store a new version of iPhoto!
    My actual iPhoto-version is from a iLife 11-DVD.
    App Store says to change my account to another account (with which i should have bought iPhoto), but i dont have another account!!!
    What can i do to update iPhoto???

    Updating iPhoto:
    How old is your Mac? If it's very recent you need to update via the App Store
    If you purchased iPhoto 11 at the App Store you need to update via the App Store
    Otherwise you update via Softare Update
    If you have moved iPhoto from the default location (i.e. into a Folder) then the updater won't find it. Move it back.
    If you have renamed iPhoto, the updater won't find it. Change it back.
    Regards
    TD

  • I cannot update IPhoto or IMovie- Error message from App Store

    Hi there-
    I cannot update IPhoto or IMovie. I have the latest OS. I cannot use these Apps either- they both ask me to update to the newest version, but when I try to I get an error message saying that the App store could not complete my request and to please try again later (null). Any ideas??

    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.
    Select
    /var/log ▹ appstore.log
    from the hierarchical list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar. Then select the messages from the last installation or update attempt, starting from the time when you initiated it. If you're not sure when that was, click the Clear Display button in the toolbar of the Console window and then try the installation again.
    Copy the messages to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.

  • Should 3rd party app installed from app store has admin or wheel in info box?

    I installed a free program from the app store called Kitabu (an epub reader). Click on the info & it said wheel. I thought only programs came with the mac by default will have wheel and all other programs (ex: iWork, microsolf office) will have admin instead--which they do, I checked. Is this normal for 3rd party app to have wheel group?
    Also the quick look plugin in this program (kitabu) works fine when I 1st installed it (quick look & preview function can view page cover of epub books). Then it stopped working. Is it the program fault or my mac?

    Either or.
    Trash the program's plist file which is located inside /Library/Preferences.  Repair permissions, restart your computer and empty the trash.

  • OSX 10.6.8 - can't instal from app store

    I used to have GarageBand on my mac, but I deleted it as I never used it.
    I want to get in from the app store but it's saying I need OSX 10.9. Can you get a version that will work on OSX 10.6.8?
    What I really want is to create a DJ mix (already created) with I.D's for each track (like you see in some podcasts).
    I see that you can do it in GarageBand; is there any other program that will do it? I have Logic Pro 8. I thought maybe markers would be read by iTunes but it doesn't, unless I'm doing something wrong.
    Please advise.

    I used to have GarageBand on my mac, but I deleted it as I never used it.
    Did GarageBand come preinstalled on your Mac with Snowleopard or an earlier version? Then it was probably included on the system install disks that came with the mac. Check the disks for installers for the bundled iLife applications. Then try to reinstall from your disk and upgrade from the Apple support page to GarageBand 6.0.5 .

  • When I try to install from App Store, the timer moves and then nothing happens...should I just try again tomorrow?

    When I try to install Mavericks from the App Store, the timer moves and then nothing happens. When I first attempted to download Mavericks onto my 2009 15" macpro the program started to download and then seemingly froze up- my partners started after mine and then finished on her 2010 13" macpro... I have gone back several times to the store, restarted my system and am getting nothing... Perhaps Ill try again tomorrow?

    If you have an iPod with iOS 3.1.3 then it is due to an Apple problem.

  • OS X Mavericks does not install from app store, keeps failing

    Got ready to download the OS x Mavericks today from the app store.
    Clicked on install, entered my Apple ID, Starting downloading and boom, just hangs half way through, wont restart the download, have to keep logging off and back in to allow the app store to let me download it again. No other updates in the queue waiting to update, all i just wanna do is install Mavericks thats it. Please tell me how i can manually download this and make sure it completes and then install it offline if possible?
    Thanking you in advance

    There is nowhere other than the App Store to download it from. You may find other sites offering it online, but if you do, those sites are distributing it illegally and you should not trust those copies.
    As to the problem, it's possible that this is an issue with your network. Try downloading on another network. Also, disable any anti-virus software, or any other kind of internet filtering/blocking software.

  • IPhone4 won't download from App store anymore

    I have an iPhone4 and therefore cannot download iOS 8, but I also have the issue many are talking about, where I cannot download anything from the App store.  I thought it was because I have switched my App store from UK to Germany because I just moved here, but after reading comments, I think it's probably something else??  Please help!
