Mac App Store Won't Work After Upgrading HDD

I'm on a Macbook Pro 2011. I had Mavricks. I downgraded my OS because I had hardware that wouldn't work with Mavricks. I also upgraded my HDD. I tried to open Mac App store but it won't open. The icon will appear on my dock and the App Store title bar appears, but all the opions in the menu are greyed out and not clickable.

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.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

App store won't open after upgrading to Maverick

After upgrading to Maverick I cannot launch the app store. When clicking on the icon it shows 6 updates but will not open. Anyone else with this problem?

Hi gabbycallaghan,
If you are unable to load the Mac App Store after updating to Yosemite, you may want to see if you can access the iTunes Store and/or try the troubleshooting steps outlined in the following article, as access issues can often affect both stores:

Mac App Store won't work

I just upgraded my iMac to OSX 10.6.7 from 10.6.6 and Mac App Store will not open. Its icon is dimmed in the Applications Folder and I get a application crash and report window whenever I try to open it. For what it's worth, it wasn't on my machine when I had 10.6.6.

You might want to purchase an external hard drive to use as a back up. Time machine is great for backing up everything on your Mac and you can get an external hard drive for less than $100.
If you are not sure which may be corrupted you can actually trash all of the Preferences in your Users, Library, Preferences Folder and restart. Be sure to save all important settings first as you will have to reset them in some instances (such as your Mail.app settings). Or, you can down load system maintenance utilities which can look for corrupt preferences. TinkerTool System is excellent and is shareware. It's worth the small price. Also, Applejack which is free. I use both.
If you reinstall from your install disk be sure to use the Archive and Install setting. Everything on your Mac will be saved.
Before you go through the reinstall though, I suggest you download, install and use Applejack first. It's very user friendly and may solve your problems. Read about it first before using it. It's a trip to watch if you haven't seen Terminal.app in action.
You can download Applejack and TinkerTool System from macupdate.com.
Again, back up all your stuff!

After upgrading to OS 10.8, my Mac App Store is not working. It says: Cannot Connect To The App Store

After upgrading to OS 10.8, my Mac App Store is not working. It says: Cannot Connect To The App Store. Kindly Help

Also having that problem - I checked and I am connected to internet (can access other websites or other pages in Apple's website), can login from Snow Leopard (10.6.8) with Mac App Store there, but if I use the (external) drive with ML to start up, no go.
I can get to the "Featured"/initial MAS page, and tried going to the login from there, but same problem as Mitoshacer.
In my case, MacBook Pro (2.66GHz, 8GB RAM, 500GB external with ML - vs. 320GB internal drive with 10.6.8), March/April 2009 model. Have done searches for the problem online, but nothing shows up (except some for older OS X versions).

Hmmmm... would appear that you need to be actually logged in to enable the additional menu features.
Have you tried deletting the plists for MAS?
This page might help you out...

Failing that, I will have to throw this back to the forum to see if anyone else can advise further.
Let me know how you get on?
Thanks.

My mac app store won't load and when click it nothing happens happens

my mac app store won't load and when you click it nothing happens...it was okay for the past months but now i don;t know why it won't open...please help...

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

App store doesn't work after iOS6

App Store doesn't work after ios6. Re-booting doesn't work. Suggestions please.

I have the same problem with my New iPad.
It was fine until this afternoon when I upgraded to ios6.
I don't have the wifi issues that others have reported but my AppStore doesn't work anymore.
It's just the AppStore that won't work.
Though Purchased and Updates looks OK, "Featured," "Charts" and search all return no results - just a big gray screen in the middle. I've been walked thru a Restore by Support but nothing's worked so far. I've tried logging off and logging back on.
From what I can tell, everything else (iTunes, apps, etc) look ok.
Any other suggestions?

Installing 10.9.2, "shutdown because of a problem", now Mail won't open and App Store won't work.

While installing OS X 10.9.2, my MacBook Pro suddenly "shut down because of a problem" (which isn't the first time that happened). Checking the Apple menu and "About this Mac" it says I have 10.9.2 installed. I tried to see if I could reinstall the update, figuring something went wrong when the computer shut down, but the App Store won't work, clicking on "Updates" or any other tab doesn't change the screen from the App Store icon in the center. Mail also won't open, which is what I ; I tried to see if I could reinstall the app, but I don't have the CD that the support page said I needed. It seems to be only Mail and FaceTime that won't open so far. How do I fix this?

I took it in to my university's apple care and they wiped and reinstalled the OS.
Next time I will just go in and ask, since it doesn't look like anyone else is getting any real help with this problem!

Updated to 10.8.5 and now app store won't work?

I have just updated my Mac 10 version 10.8.5 and now it is saying that the App Store won't work with this version. Itunes also won't open as this obviously hasn't updated properly either.
Has anyone else had this problem? I don't seem to be able to reinstall the App Store either?

Try the following....
Mountain Lion Recovery
Boot up from your computer by holding down the command+r keys. This will take you to the recovery drive.
Select Disk Utility & hit Return.
In Disk Utility select the HD on the left & click on Repair Disk (bottom right).
When done, repair permissions from your desktop DU and restart your computer. Check SU for further updates.
Post back your results.

Mac App Store doesn't work.

Some of the apps that came with the computer, including Mac App Store and Calendar, has problems while launching and they quit themselves very soon after.
I cannot update software because as I said, the Mac App Store does not work.
Here is a part of the error report it gives when I open Calendar.:
Exception Type: EXC_BREAKPOINT (SIGTRAP)
Exception Codes: 0x0000000000000002, 0x0000000000000000
Application Specific Information:
dyld: launch, loading dependent libraries
Dyld Error Message:
Symbol not found: _OBJC_CLASS_$_CalUICalendarInfoViewController
Referenced from: /Applications/Calendar.app/Contents/MacOS/Calendar
Expected in: /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/CalendarUI.framework/Versions/A/CalendarUI
in /Applications/Calendar.app/Contents/MacOS/Calendar
It gives the same error on the app store as well.
Please help me if you can. Thank you.

Why dont the apps on my iphone4 work after upgrading to 5.1?

why dont the apps on my iphone4 work after upgrading to 5.1?

Hmm this is interesting, so far ios6 is actually ALOT less laggy and less crashes for me on my iphone4 than ios5.1.1 with the exception of the new apps store app, it crashes all the time. My ipad2 is the device thats giving me MAJOR lag and crashes with ios6. Im thinking about trying a restore to see if that fixes it. You might want to try the same if you havnt already. I still kinda think this version of iOS is iOS vista edition lol

ICloud email won't work after upgrade

iCloud email won't work after upgrade to Mountain Lion. Says pop 3 server is timing out. Solutions?

I'm sorry, as I keep saying... in MAIL I get the message that it cannot cannot to server!? Did you read the initial problem at all! I know exactly where mail is, although, the diagram was wonderful.
My problem is TWO FOLD.
The MAIL app doesn't work with iCloud but does work with my POP3 email for my office.
Second problem is the iCloud on Safari doesn't work as I get the error message as the screenshot above.
There is NO reason why the @me.com email shouldn't work through the iCloud site, as you can see, there is a also a Mail icon.

My 10.8.3 update did not install properly citing an 'Unknown Error'. Now, my Mail and Mac App Store aren't working. What went wrong and how do i fix it ?

My 10.8.3 update did not install properly citing an 'Unknown Error'. Now, my Mail and Mac App Store aren't working. What went wrong and how do i fix it ?

I tried this and still have the same problems. If I open Address book or the Mac App Store I get the library rebuild popup and a hang. I created a fresh user and then things are better apart from the printing issue. Its clearly some 3rd party software issue but the crash logs are meningless to me. I used the excellent Etre check app from http://www.etresoft.com/etrecheck so I have a list of what is being loaded and can compare clean and crashed user info but as I cant work out which of the startup items, launch agents, launch daemons etc that are causing the problem.
I have eliminated Dropbox, Mac Keeper and Witness, and it isnt related to my exterrnal LED cinema dispay or my external thunderbolt drives, or any USB devices if thats any help to anyone else. Info from Etrecheck follows -
