Mac apps not working

Everyone has been telling me about how you can get apps on your laptop, all of my friends are able to get them but for some reason I can't access them on my computer. My software is all up to date, I have a MacBook version 10.5.8. I know it's a couple years old, but it should still work? Help please?

In order to get apps from the Mac App Store, you would have to be running Mac OS Snow Leopard (10.6), not 10.5. If your Mac meets the system requirements, you can purchase 10.6 online or in retail stores for $29; once installed, you can update it to the 10.6.6 version which contains the Mac App Store.

  • Migrating Mac Apps not working

    My old MacPro motherboard died so I removed the hard drive and migrated everything to my new Macbook Air. The problem is the iLife Suite. Pages, Numbers, etc wont open. When I click on them I get  "___________ cannot open because there is a problem". I go the App store "My Purchases" and they do not show purchased (?). So, I try to buy on App store, again, but it wont let me because it says they are already installed. What up?

    Did you purchase the iWork and iLife apps from the Mac App store?
    If you did, delete the iWork folder and re-install from the Mac App Store.
    If you didn't, you will need to reinstall from your install disks.

    Hi Jeff, I'm using OS X Mavericks 10.9.1
    In the first attachement you can see the Creative Cloud screen that always stays blank.
    In the second attachement you can see an error screen (more a pop up) that show an errro after I tried to login with my Adobe ID. I have to do that when I start up any of the Adobe apps (Photoshop, Premier, Acrobat etc).

    you mentioned that Terminal does not work at all for your MacBook Pro. What currently happens when you run Terminal? In what way does it not work?

  • Java apps not working right

    I lately have found problems with Java apps not working correctly. For example, in Yahoo Widgets I cannot get any widget preferences to display; in Apple's Java Preferences for J2SE 5.0 the preference window opens but is blank; and in JBidwatcher the buttons are missing in main and preference windows.
    When I log in as another user I find all those apps work properly, so it seems to be something wrong within my User folder. I tried reinstalling the Java J2SE50ReIease4 but it didn't help. Is there something I can delete and/or reinstall to fix this problem?

    Ditto here,
    I made the mistake of thinking I could throw away the preferences in the Java folder and new pref's would automatically replace the missing pref's, much to my surprise no such thing happened. My settup is the same as yours, except my OS is 10.4.8.
    Someone please help.
    Thanks,

    Problem with new version 4.3.2 apps not working " after update to the new version "
    i was in 4.3.1 then i do the update , but now after update i face this problem , so what i Supposed to do ?!!

    Hi There
    Had the same problem as you. App would terminate when launched.
    Solution to working You Tube app:
    -Go to playstore
    - Uninstall app (it doesn't remove the app, only removes the update)
    - "Et Voila", working again.
    This doesn't correct the problem, it's just a workaround for you to be able to use youtube app again.
    Hope it helped.
    Best Regards

  • Office Web Apps 2013 - Word app not working on Sharepoint 2013 but Excel does

    Hi there!
    We had some problems with Office Web Apps 2013 not working with Lync, and the status of OWA was unhealty so we decided to install some updates for OWA.
    We have downloaded November 2013 update for OWA.
    We found out a guide for putting updates on OWA and done this steps:
    * Remove-OfficeWebAppsMachine
    * Installed the november update
    * Restarted OWA server
    * ran: New-OfficeWebAppsFarm -InternalUrl https://owasrv.domain.local -ExternalURL
    https://owasrv.domain.local -CertificateName "certname" -AllowHttp  -EditingEnabled
    * Restart-Service WACSM
    - checked in IIS in the bindings if the site useses the correct certificate
    Then we went on Sharepoint 2013 and ran some commands:
    * Remove-SPWOPIBinding –All:$true
    * New-SPWOPIBinding -ServerName owasrv.domain.local
    * Set-SPWOPIZone –zone “external-https”
    Now here are the funny things:
    * Excel word app on Sharepoint 2013 works
    * Word APP not working (screenshot)
    * Lync 2013 powerpoint still not working (screenshot)
    * status of OWA is healthy

    Hi,
    The Friendly name field must be unique within the Trusted Root Certificate Authorities store.  In -CertificateName, enter the friendly name you gave your
    certificate earlier.
    Validate the configuration by navigating to the discovery URL of the Office Web Apps server.  Like
    https://xxx/hosting/discovery
    Meanwhile, the issue is related to Lync, I recommend to you to post the question on Lync Server for further discussion via the link below.
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=ocsclients

  • Default Mail app not working with yahoo mail. Won't update.

    Default Maill app not working with Yahoo Mail.
    It stopped working the other day. I tried everything but it wouldn't update new mail. The yahoo account itself is fine because I can see new mail on Yahoo or a yahoo app.
    I tried deleting the account and putting it back on, but now it has 0 mail in any part of it. Nothing has synced.
    What do I do?
    iPad 2 latest OS.

    A lot of people have been unable to access Yahoo e-mail on their iPhones or iPads. My wife’s iPad was not downloading Yahoo mail, although her iPhone was. Both used IOS 8.2. We tried deleting the account several times and troubleshooting all of the other settings. The problem appears to have been that allowing the IOS to automatically create the account on the iPad resulted in the wrong settings for the incoming server. The following procedure, pieced together from two websites, fixed the problem for us. So far, so good.
    https://portal.smartertools.com/kb/a2659/configure-imap-for-iphone-or-ipad.aspx
    https://help.yahoo.com/kb/mobile-mail/imap-server-settings-sln4075.html
    On the iPhone, tap Settings.
    Tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    Tap your Yahoo account, then delete it.
    Tap Add Account.
    Tap Other.
    Tap Add Mail Account.
    Complete the Name, Address (email address), Password and Description fields.
    Click Next.
    Ensure IMAP is selected.
    Enter the following incoming mail server information:
    Incoming Mail (IMAP) Server - Requires SSL
    Server: imap.mail.yahoo.com
    Port: 993
    Requires SSL: Yes
    Hostname is mail.yahoo.com.
    Username is your full email address
    Password is the same password used to access webmail.
    Enter the following outgoing mail server information:
    Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - Requires SSL
    Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
    Port: 465 or 587
    Requires SSL: Yes
    Requires authentication: Yes
    Username is your full email address
    Password is the same password used to access webmail. It may have been entered for you.
    Tap Next.
    The iPhone will establish an SSL connection to your IMAP and SMTP servers.
    That’s all!

    accidentally removed from,sharing and permissions the admin user,and now i do not when i find the home icon at my computer i do not have permmission,and the mac does not works properly,lots of question mark at the dock ,please help

    I'm going to assume that since you deleted your hard drive and all its files, you had a backup, yes? If the backup has an OS (bootable clone), then you can boot into it by holding down the option key when you start up you iMac and choose the backup drive. Then use Carbon Copy Cloner or Super Duper to copy the files back to your iMac.
