IPhoto had an error when updating and now says: "Use the Purchases page to try again."

     Before I went to school yesterday morning I started the iPhoto update so when I got back it would be done. So I looked to see if the update was finshed and it said: "An error haas occured" next to the update button. So I hit update again and it came up with what you see in the picture below.
So I went to the purchase tab and tried again and the same thing happened again! What do I do? Thank you!

Hi there!
Did you get any explanation for that "8.8.8.8-solution"? Very strange but it seemed to work with me but only for some apps.
My problem doesn't look the same though. I managed to download all big apps like iPhoto and Xcode but the small ones never get installed properly. I see they are being downloaded but after that I get "Installed" button and a message to use purchases tab again and the app is not installed on Applications folder.
On ML 10.8.0 Mac App Store was downloading and re-downloading these small apps adn the only way I found to solve this was pause the download, add the 8.8.8.8 to DNS and resume. I worked for some apps.
On ML 10.8.2 Mac App Store behavior is a little different, I only get "Installed" button shortly after having hit "Install" and cannot even pause. After reboot I see an error message in red "An error has ocurred".
This is not happenning on Snow Leopard, what the heck have they done??
I tried all suggestions, reset Mac App Store, delete cache folder, I don't have any anti-virus running,
What's happenning? This is reallly annoying...

    It can also be an iTunes issue. Many of us, including myself, are not used to the new interface of iTunes 11 and would find ways to downgrade the available iTunes 11 back to iTunes 10.7 in Mac OS Mavericks. The only issue with downgrading (using AppZapper and Pacifist) is that you will not be able to update/install apps from the App Store after rebooting the Mac.
    If you happen to have downgraded your iTunes in this method, then uninstall the iTunes 10.7 and reinstall iTunes 11 again - the App Store should resume its download/update function without any issue.
    Hope this helps.

  • "Use the purchases page to try again" App store update error in Mavericks

    When Mavericks came out, I did a clean install of the OS. The first thing I did upon logging in, was reverting iTunes back to 10.7 before I opened it so it wouldn't update my iTunes library files and make them incompatible with any version lower than 11 (I went backt to 10.7 some time ago).
    However, this seems to cause a problem with the App store - specfically updating apps. Whenever I try to update anything, I get this error message:
    After going to the purchases page, it then looks like this:
    And so after trying to update it from the purchaes page, I still get this error message:
    The only work around I have found to work is to update itunes to version 11, update the apps, then downgrade back to 10.7 again. This is a hastle so I'm wondering if there is an easier way. Obviously the app store in Mavericks needs iTunes 11 installed for it to work correctly - so I was thinking, was there a way to trick OSX into thinking that I have iTunes 11 installed when I actually have 10.7? I'm assuming there must be a file somewhere included in the version 11 install that the app store looks for to work with?
    Any advice/help would be appreciated!

    Ok,  time to troubleshoot then.
    Quit the Mac App Store
    Run the terminal app in your Utilities folder
    Copy & Paste this command exactly and hit return:
    open $TMPDIR../C/
    In the Finder window that appears, place the com.apple.appstore folder into the trash.
    Restart the Mac App Store and see if things work now.

    Hi,
    Your problem has some similarities to this problem that I reported earlier this month that that still arises every few days. I was thinking that my problem was related to some sort of bug in Entourage, but maybe it's something else...

  • I had to restore my iPod and now none of the songs want to play.

    I had to restore my iPod and now none of the songs want to play. I press play, it goes to the song screen, then around 5 seconds pass without the song starting and then it skips to the next song where the same thing happens. And that just keeps happening over and over and over again. Also when I plug in the iPod, the pinwheel shows up on iTunes for a while and then the 13010 error message pops up but the iPod still shows up in iTunes. I'm so lost. Please help!

    It's not uncommon for it to not work the first time and sometimes, you have to try it a few times. Turn off your antivirus software and your firewall while you are trying to restore the iPad. Enable them again after you restore.
    If that still won't work, post back with detailed information as to what exactly does happen as you go through the process.

  • Error:- No server was available to process the request. Please try again la

    Hi All,
    I have created a report in deskI and trying to execute it through WebI on a large database, but it gives the below mentioned error after almost 30 min.
    Error:- No server was available to process the request. Please try again later. (Error:RFC 00101)(Error:INF)...
    When I run the same report on small database it works fine.
    When trying to execute the same report through SDK also it gives the same error.
    The SQL only execution timing when the report fails is about 23 min.
    What is the reason for this error. can we fix it by changing some configurations on BOXI server.
    Thanks in Advance,

    Hi Prabhat,
    Following solution might be helpful in resolving the issue.
    To resolve the error message
    Log on to the Central Management Console as administrator.
    Click Servers > Desktop Intelligence Report Server.
    Increase the following time-out parameters to at least twice the current value:
    Minutes before Idle connection is closed
    Minutes before an idle report job is closed
    Click Update > Apply.
    The report opens successfully.
