Mac app store - installed Mavericks ?

So far no problems wtih Mavericks on my new Imac 27 late 2013.
But why doesen't Mac App store register that I actually have the OS installed.
It's not a problem - but other apps is recognized ?

Found that it is convenient for further purpose.

The first step in Upgrading... is to Snow Leopard = OS X 10.6.x
It is Not available as a download... It is a Paid Upgrade.
Do this first...
Check that your Mac meets the System Requirements for Snow Leopard...
Snow Leopard Tech Specs > http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
If so... Purchase a Snow Leopard Install Disc...

After the Successful Install, run Software Update to get the latest updates for Snow Leopard and iTunes.

Mac App Store on Mavericks ?

I've upgraded to OSX Mavericks today and I can't seem to open the mac app store,any idea why ? I want to update garage band !

It's just bounce like any other app when i open it. And then it stopped bouncing. It kept happening. I also figured out that I can't open the Terminal app

Mac App Store installed / not installed

When the MAS first was introduced I remember that some applications, like Aperture or iMovie, were marked as already installed, which was OK. When I look in the MAS today I see that these applications are no longer marked as Installed and they can be bought again now.
Has something been changed or do I miss something?

The only thing wrong with this answer is the word "incorrectly". Now people will unwittingly buy and install apps they've already bought from other sources (e.g., the developers' website) and so pay twice. Of course, Apple won't mind.

Getting the Mac App Store. Help

So i have a MacBook Pro and its running 10.5.8. Im trying to upgrade to Lion and i seem to have an isue because i can't download the Mac app store to get it because you need to have had Snow Lepoard now on the apple website it tells you to check out "Snow Leapord" but redirects you to the Lion page.
So my question is how am i suppose to get Lion without being able to get the App Store. Because Appple is tryiing to be Enviromentally friendly with the App store. I don't want to have to buy Snow Leapord and then get Lion. It would simply make no sense for me to do so.
So you see my dilema here can anyone help me.
Thanks again.

You must install Snow Leopard in order to have the Mac App Store installed so you can download and install Lion.
Lion requirements: Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM.
Apple - OS X Lion - Get Lion in July. Only from the Mac App Store.

Mac app store: header buttons not clickable (Featured, Top Charts, Categories, Purchases, Updates)

I am using the Mac app store on Mavericks. The header buttons (Featured, Top Charts, Categories, Purchases, Updates) are not clickable. They are greyed out except for the selected button, which is light-blue-grayed-out.
I can go to the Store menu and choose Updates, Featured, Top Charts, Categories, Purchases without problem. It's just these buttons that are greyed out.
I tried the following to solve this:
delete the contents of $TMPDIR/C/*ppstore*
reboot
upgrade to Mavericks (I already had this issue on 10.8.5)
Exit a lot of programs
Check for kexts that shouldn't be there
Create another user with admin rights and open App Store from that user
Sign out and back into the App Store
See this image.
Any help would be appeciated.

I see that others had the same issue. And I'm happy to report that it does not happen here anymore. I did not have any Apple updates that I'm aware of, so I'm not sure what fixed it.
Those who also see it has been fixed, please click 'This solved my question' - thank you!

I'm disgusted, any help would be appreciated.

I have Maverick installed and my mail, Safari, Mac App Store, and iMessages apps all say that they quit unexpectedly and will not open. Any suggestions?

I will check. Can the security update be installed if you can no longer open the Mac App Store app?
I was listening to the MacCast podcast and the host had a similar issue and did something similar to the link below. I am concerned that I may mess something up by doing this.

I reinstalled tiger on one iMac, but want to re-upgragde it to Lion. I don't have the discs anymore, but I installed Lion from the Mac App Store. Now that I'm back to 10.4, I don't have the App Store. I have a new iMac with Mavericks, but it won't let

I have a 2006 iMac that I've upgraded to each new os as they came out. I just wiped it (for the kids to use, I have a new iMac with Mavericks) and reintalled Tiger from the original discs. I want to get it back to Lion - which I purchased from the Mac App Store. But Tiger doesn't have the App Store and I don't have the discs anymore from the intermediate versions. I tried downloading Lion from the new iMac but it's not available...
Any ideas?

To get to the App Store, you need to upgrade the Tiger machine to Snow Leopard.

I just purchased a software upgrade. I received an e-mail that says, "To install your software, you simply launch the Mac App Store, click "Redeem"• found under Quick Links and enter your content code(s)." How do I do this??

Assuming you are running OS X 10.6.6 or later (10.7.x Lion, 10.8.x Mountain Lion or 10.9.x Mavericks), go to the Apple Menu (top left-hand corner of the screen)>App Store and it should become clear from there.

CleanMyMac 1 deleted lots of my apps like photobooth, terminal, mac app store, preview, etc. I use Mac OS X Mavericks. What can I do?

I was cleaning my Mac using this program 'CleanMyMac', everything was perfect until I went to the Launchpad and I noticed that lots of my apps didnt show their icons like Skype, Photo Booth, Terminal, Maps, Contacts, iBooks, Mac App Store, Reminder, etc. I tried to open them but I couldnt!!!! I cant even open terminal, and even worse... I CANT EVEN OPEN A PICTURE WITH 'PREVIEW'
I dont know what to do! I use OS X Mavericks!!!!!!
HELP PLEASE!

Actually, it doesn't. Following its developer's instructions leaves an active User Launch Agent com.macpaw.CleanMyMac2Helper.diskSpaceWatcher.plist.
/private/var/run/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac2.Agent.socket also remains.
~/Library/Application Support/CleanMyMac 2/CleanMyMac 2 Helper.app is not deleted either, nor is app.com.macpaw.CleanMyMac2.playlist, nor a cache file in com.plausiblelabs.crashreporter.data - which is probably harmless.
Only its developer can know what the above files do. There may be others that I did not find. The reason their programmers chose to leave them behind is known only to them.
The following illustrates the contents of diskSpaceWatcher.plist and /private/var/run after following its uninstallation instructions and subsequently rebooting:

I just had a question regarding the OS X Recovery, does that uninstall all my files as well?
No. Reinstalling OS X leaves all your files intact. Unfortunately it also leaves system modifications such as those installed by CleanMyMac intact as well. Eradicating them is up to you.

Is it possible to upgrade a computer that qualifies for Mavericks to Mountain Lion via a content code purchase from the Mac App Store?

I inherited a situation where a previous consultant purchased a Mountain Lion installer code from the Apple Store but Mountain Lion was never installed. I obtained a new installer code from Apple based on the valid purchase of the Mountain Lion software last month.
The Mountain Lion installer appears under Purchases in the Mac App Store, but nothing happens when I try to download it. When I try to redeem the purchase by inserting the content code I get a message indicating that the content code has already been redeemed.
I don't mind spending $20 to purchase a fresh content/installer code, but I would like some assurance that the Mountain Lion software can be installed on a computer that qualifies for Mavericks. Not wanting to upgrade to Mavericks is not my idea but is that of my client.
Or to put it another way, does Apple prohibit such an install unless the computer in question does not qualify for a Mavericks upgrade?

It is your decision which OS you want to upgrade to - Apple does not place such restrictions (unless the machine specs do not meet the OS's specs or vice versa). So, if yours does meet Mavericks specs, it can run any OS newer than what it came with.
So, which OS does the machine have now?
I inherited a situation where a previous consultant purchased a Mountain Lion installer code from the Apple Store but Mountain Lion was never installed. I obtained a new installer code from Apple based on the valid purchase of the Mountain Lion software last month.
Was this purchase done on this same Mac? If so and someone else purchased the OS, then the likely answer is: any OS or app obtained at the app store is not transferable - its' license is tied to the original purchaser's Apple ID forever. So, it may have been a valid purchase, but it is tied to the purchaser, not you.
In order to get past that, you will need to wipe the drive booting from either the original install disk (which OS did the Mac come with?) or using recovery if it was Lion. After wiping the drive, reinstall the original system, and then you can purchase and download any OS version you'd like using your own Apple ID.
Let me know if I misunderstood the situation.

Trying to install new version of software from the Mac App Store

My iMac is running OS X 10.6.8
I purchase a copy of Swift Publisher 3.0.1 back in June of 2012.
I paid $19.99 U.S.D for this upgrade, then.
I just went to the Mac App Store to download a more recent version ( ver 3.5.5).
It is not coming up in the Mac App Store as an Update and appears as if I will pay another $19.99.
Is this what will happen? There is no indication on BeLight's web page about any update charges to any 3.x.x version of Swift Publiser,
When I click the buy button, it looks as though I am going to be charged for this, again. Nothing appears as an indication that this is just an update.
WHat will happen?

I solved it.
I, originally, download and installed the software under the Mac App Store when I was using OS X Mavericks.
I was getting all sorts of error messages from the Mac App Store under Snow Leopard.
I simply copied that version to my working OS X Snow Leopard disc and it is working fine, now.
Thank goodness for having multiple backups on three drives!
Whoo! Spent a good chunk of the day trying to figure this one out!

Mac App Store problems (some software won't install)

Recently, I've been having problems with updates being installed after they were downloaded. Oddly enough, all the updates I am having problems come from Apple. the first was the Epson Printer driver update that came out about a month ago. It downloaded fine, but after the download, the software window says the software is installing, but, for days on end, the progress bar shows it stuck at the beginning of the installation process. Now, I am having the same prolem with the Raw Camera update. Everythng else that needs updating works fine, including the Mavericks.2 update, but these programs refuse to install.
Early 2011 15 " MBP (2 GHz i7, 4 Gig RAM) running OSX.9.2.
Oddly enough, I have a mid-2010 iMac (27", 3.6 GHz i5, 12 Gig RAM) running 10.8.5, and both programs updated perfectly with no problems. Anyone have any ideas of what is going wrong, and what I can do to fix it?
Thanks in advance.

Thank you for the response, but I don't see how to get to downloads from the Apple support site. Selecting "Software Update" from the Apple menu takes me to the App Store. Going to the Support page, I don't see any way of downloading files. It seems that has been all moved to the Mac App Store now. If there is a way to download files from the Apple Support Site, I would certainly like to know how to do it, as I can't figure out how.
Thank you in advance.
