Lion's page-turning gestures on the magic mouse don't work in the App Store

Hi.
Does anyone know why Lion's swipe gestures for moving forwards and backwards through pages don't work in the App Store? I have the Lion OS and use a magic mouse in conjunction with MagicPrefs, stored in the System Preferences, and the gestures work with every app except the App Store.
Thanks.

I'm not familiar with the Magic Mouse, so I don't know how the gestures are different from those on a trackpad. However, on a trackpad, you can use a two-finger left or right swipe to scroll horizontally, which - in Safari only - will also go forward or backward between pages. There is also a three-finger swipe that more properly goes forward or backward in any app that supports that, including the App Store, iTunes, etc. You'll want to use that gesture instead.

Mountain Lion isn't letting me use the App Store, Can someone help me?

I thought that mountain lion will be a very useful software upgrade. After I downloaded Mountain Lion, I can't connect to the App Store and I can't turn dictation on. Can someone please help me?

I am having the same problem. There is a glitch with the app store, that non-admins cannot connect to the app store. Try using the admin account overwise i'm not sure on that one.
I have no clue for dictation is it all faded out? That is how mine is, it is probably just a problem with the new software and they will release an upadte for that but if the app store is not working how can we receive the new release?
You'd of thought that apple would of run tests or something to see what happens when you download mountian lion. If i find anything i will keep you informed.

Remote location, 7kbs d'load speed, 10 days to d'load Lion, only software updates are through the App Store. Why can't we d'load and install outside the Cloud anymore? Some of us can't use the cloud.

Remote location, 7kbs d'load speed, 10 days to d'load Lion, only software updates are through the App Store. Why can't we d'load and install outside the Cloud anymore? Some of us can't use the cloud and never will be able to.

That is true - I apologize for not being specific - what I was mainly referring to is iLife applications. I have a notice on the App Store that says 3 apps need updates, I look at the apps and they are huge so since my connection is so slow I use my work connection and d'load the files from support to my Windows machine and carry them home, once d'loaded my MacAir states it cannot install, the update must come from the App Store.
I do the same thing for large Leopard and Lion files and I can install them without error, it is just the App Store files that the system stops.

Why does my ipod touch 4gen keeps going back to home page when browsing on the apps store

Why does my Ipod touch 4 generation keeps going back to home page when browsing in the apps store.
I called apple 5 times today and asked me to restore it 3x the problem still exists. This problem starts to occur yesterday after upgrading to IOS6.
Apple customer service is not good enough as they cannot fixed the problem or tell me that I can change the unit as I just bought this 2 months ago.

Because there is a bug in iOS 6 that effects the 4G iPod touch.

I just downloaded Mountain Lion for my MacBook Pro from the App Store. Can I also download it for my iMac without paying the $19.99 fee again?

I just downloaded Mountain Lion for my MacBook Pro from the App Store. I was curious if it is possible to downloand Mountain Lion to my iMac without paying the $19.99 fee again? Not trying to be a cheapskate, just curious if App Store purchases are universal like iTunes Apps.

You can re download Mountain Lion for free on all your authorized Macs using the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.
How to re download apps from the Mac App Store:
Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
Select Mountain Lion.
Then right or control click where you see Installed then click Install.

I can't download Lion from my past purchases in the App Store

I click the "Download" button; I'm prompted that I already have Lion installed. I click "Continue" and the "Download" button greys out for a few seconds, then becomes active again. Nothing else happens.
I need to do a reinstall because my laptop is running really slow and hot.
(This is the lastest OS my old Macbook Pro will run; my laptop can't run Mountain Lion).

Reinstalling is a last resort solution.
Things You Can Do To Resolve Slow Downs
If your computer seems to be running slower here are some things you can do:
Start with visits to:     OS X Maintenance - MacAttorney;
                                  The X Lab: The X-FAQs;
                                  The Safe Mac » Mac Performance Guide;
                                  The Safe Mac » The myth of the dirty Mac;
                                  Mac maintenance Quick Assist.
Boot into Safe Mode then repair your hard drive and permissions:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions Pre-Lion
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
Repair the Hard Drive - Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the Utilites Menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD disk icon and click on the arrow button below.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
Restart your computer normally and see if this has helped any. Next do some maintenance:
For situations Disk Utility cannot handle the best third-party utility is Disk Warrior; DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible.
Note: Alsoft ships DW on a bootable DVD that will startup Macs running Snow Leopard or earlier. It cannot start Macs that came with Lion or later pre-installed, however, DW will work on those models.
Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep. Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts was significantly reduced since Tiger. These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard or later and should not be installed.
OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive.
Helpful Links Regarding Malware Protection
An excellent link to read is Tom Reed's Mac Malware Guide.
Also, visit The XLab FAQs and read Detecting and avoiding malware and spyware.
See these Apple articles:
          Mac OS X Snow Leopard and malware detection
          OS X Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
          OS X Mountain Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
          About file quarantine in OS X
If you require anti-virus protection I recommend using VirusBarrier Express 1.1.6 or Dr.Web Light both from the App Store. They're both free, and since they're from the App Store, they won't destabilize the system. (Thank you to Thomas Reed for these recommendations.)
Troubleshooting Applications
I recommend downloading a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX, Mavericks Cache Cleaner, or Cocktail that you can use for removing old log files and archives, clearing caches, etc. Corrupted cache, log, or temporary files can cause application or OS X crashes as well as kernel panics.
If you have Snow Leopard or Leopard, then for similar repairs install the freeware utility Applejack. If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the command line. Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. Applejack does not work with Lion and later.
Basic Backup
For some people Time Machine will be more than adequate. Time Machine is part of OS X. There are two components:
1. A Time Machine preferences panel as part of System Preferences;
2. A Time Machine application located in the Applications folder. It is
    used to manage backups and to restore backups. Time Machine
    requires a backup drive that is at least twice the capacity of the
    drive being backed up.
Alternatively, get an external drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
1. Carbon Copy Cloner
2. Get Backup
3. Deja Vu
4. SuperDuper!
5. Synk Pro
6. Tri-Backup
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on backup and restore. Also read How to Back Up and Restore Your Files. For help with using Time Machine visit Pondini's Time Machine FAQ for help with all things Time Machine.
Referenced software can be found at MacUpdate.
Additional Hints
Be sure you have an adequate amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run concurrently. Be sure you leave a minimum of 10% of the hard drive's capacity as free space.
Add more RAM. If your computer has less than 2 GBs of RAM and you are using OS X Leopard or later, then you can do with more RAM. Snow Leopard and Lion work much better with 4 GBs of RAM than their system minimums. The more concurrent applications you tend to use the more RAM you should have.
Always maintain at least 15 GBs or 10% of your hard drive's capacity as free space, whichever is greater. OS X is frequently accessing your hard drive, so providing adequate free space will keep things from slowing down.
Check for applications that may be hogging the CPU:
Pre-Mavericks
Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time (>=70,) then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
Mavericks and later
Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the View menu. Click on the CPU tab in the toolbar. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time (>=70,) then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
Often this problem occurs because of a corrupted cache or preferences file or an attempt to write to a corrupted log file.

Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed.

Reinstall Mountain Lion or Mavericks
OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
     Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is
                three times faster than wireless.

Lion is no longer available from the App Store, but I haven't gotten it yet.

I purchased Lion from the App Store on October 27th, but then realized I could not download it yet due to bandwidth restrictions at school (though I did download it once, but the file corrupted and I went over the bandwidth limit, causing my Internet to be shut off). So I'm finally home for Thanksgiving, and went to download again to install it this time. However, the download is no longer available. It doesn't show up as purchased, and when I tried to log in and download it, it wanted to charge me another $30.
Is there any way that I can redownload this again without paying again?
Thanks in advance,
John Walsh

Alright. I resolved the problem. In case anyone else has this issue, my copy of Lion got moved to 'hidden purchases'. Unhiding it fixed the problem.

I bought OS X Mountain Lion a few days ago from the App Store but it will not download. In the purchased section of the App Store it says 'an error has occurred' in red letters next to the download button. I have been charged for it but not downloaded it?

If i click on the download button in the purhased section nothing happens. if i go into the App store and click download on Mountain Lion there it looks like it is starting to download and opens Lauchpad but it never moves off 'waiting'.
Any help would be great.
Thank you !

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Press Shift key on boot, delete Mountain Lion installer from Applications, open App Store > Purchases and download OS X. If it doesn't help > http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/contact

My mac book pro won't load any safari page or connect to the App Store, but it does load new emails.....

My mac book pro isn't loading any safari page, the blue loading bar starts to move then freezes....

There is an Internet connection as it receives new emails

And now after logging in I get a white screen.....omg what's wrong with it?!

How do I get Lion if I can not get the App Store to work?

I have reinstalled my OS 10.6.3 ran all the updates and the App store does not work. I have reinstalled the 10.6.8 Combo updater, and while I can now look through the App Store if I try to download anything the application locks up with the spinning rainbow wheel; the only way out of the is to 'Force Quit'. That being said, "How am I suppose to upgrade to Lion OS 10.7"?

At this time, Lion is not being offered in disc form and is only available through the Mac App store.
As for your Mac AppStore freezing, I assume you are receiving an error 100. Try unmounting your Bootcamp partition and any external hard drives. Sign out and quit the AppStore and iTunes. Open iTunes and download any application. This should prompt you to accept new terms. Accept the new terms and wait for the download to finish. Quit iTunes and relaunch the AppStore. Now attempt to download an application within the AppStore. This should resolve the issue.

HT1349 cannot get lion to download and install from the app store

the lion os app took 2 days to down load then did not install from the app store.

Do you mean the install button stays on install, or do you notice a loading bar under your Launchpad icon?
This may help...

Reinstall of Lion - says - "Item temporarily unavailable from the App store. Please try again later."

I am trying to reinstall Lion after erasing my hard drive. Erase went smoothly, but now when I try to reinstall, after prompted to enter my Apple ID and pw, it says "Item temporarily unavailable from the App store. Please try again later." HelP!l

Sometimes there are just server problems with the App Store. Only thing that I can offer is to wait a day or so and try again and, if still no luck, contact the App Store support folks - http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/.
Good luck,

IWork, Pages 2011 coming to the App Store sometime when?

I really want to get Pages in the App Store, but when is iWork 2011 coming to the App Store? If I buy Pages now, is it going to be a free upgrade to Pages 2011? Pages on the iPad is great and I really really want it on my MacBook.

Probably not.
Especially since you don't have to download all three apps, I'd suggest that you go ahead if you have an urgent need. It's a personal decision and depends on how much you need it and your tolerance for risk.
You can put off the decision for awhile by downloading the free trial of iWork fro the regular Apple Store and not registering it. Maybe the new version will come along before you have to buy. The risk here is that you might get hooked and not have a real choice.

Can I download a copy of OSX Mountain Lion (which I paid for) from the App Store, to make a boot-able copy, from a Friends imac?

My MBP got screwy since Maverick install. I made a bootable copy on my machine of
Mountain Lion (or so I thought) with Diskmaker X. After moving all important files to an external drive,
I cleared HDD, and rebooted from thumb drive, with no success! This article gave me hope:
http://www.hongkiat.com/blog/clean-install-mountain-lion/
Can I do this from a friend's iMac in App Store (my account) ?
Thanks :)

If so, the first thing I would do is to back up your data on the ill mac. I assume both macs have firewire port, get a cable and connect both macs via this cable. Then restart your ill mac by pressing T key after chime, it will become a simple external disk you should see on the desktop of your healthy mac. Back up your data.
Now, with this action accomplished, you may go on. BArney - 15E is optimistic and says how to restart in recovery mode—this may be possible if installation was complete for recovery partition (I doubt this, but I may be wrong).
Otherwise, I would reinstall from the scratch. If after connecting your ill mac via FW, you may see the disk in good order, you should also see the Lion installer within Applications folder. Copy it unto an external disk or flash disk and keep it safe, you will need it again.
