Mac Pro...can't get App Store or Facetime

I have a Mac Pro, running the most recent 10.5.8 software.  I'd like to use Facetime, and was assured by Apple's ads that the Mac App Store and Facetime would be included with the most recent software updates.  The Facetime App is supposed to be in the bridge, after purchase.  But, I can't get my Itunes to let me buy the App....it only seems to know I have an Ipod and Ipad.  Does anyone know how I can get hooked up using Mac Apps, and ultimately Facetime? 

Maybe MacBook Pros are somehow different?
To clarify you don't have a laptop/notebook, and you have Snow Leopard.

    please help someone

    Is this an Early 2011 MBP?
    Try manually downloading and installing this update;
    Mac OS X v10.6.7 Update for early 2011 MacBook Pro
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1368
    If it is older, then try this one, it is fairly large!

    I would drag the MAS app to the Trash and restart before applying either of the updates.

  • How can I get App Store to ignore updates?

    I'm sick and tired of being prompted to update to pages 5 which I utterly loathe. I keep trying to control-click the update which used to give the option to skip that update, but now I can't seem to get that menu item. Is there a way to do that now?
    I'm assuming I'm missing something exceedingly obvious that's going to create a "Doh!" moment.
    Thanks!

    Try unchecking all the boxes at System Preferences > App Store.

  • Can not get App Store icon my Ipad front display

    Thanks for your support,
    till i can not find out the App Store icon in my ipad home screen,
    Check Settings>General>Restrictions and make sure that you didn't disable installing apps.
    i check it On,
    if i want to enter then need to enter passcode, but i do not know the passcode.
    please give me a solution.
    then i try by Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.
    this ok, but in my ipad no icon for Apps Store.
    awaiting your confirmation reply.

    I don't think you understand. You only needed to check restrictions in case you had been using restrictions. If you we're not using restrictions, then you could not have disabled installing of apps. There is no need to turn it on, IF it was turned on and you were not using it.
    If you were not using restrictions and you reset the home screen layout, and neither of those worked for you, something is wrong. What you are saying doesn't make sense.

  • I can't get App Store to connect!! What should I do..

    Basically, every time I go to search something in the App Store, it will say "cannot connect to App Store". Yes I am well aware that this is typically an internet connection issue but that is not the case because according to my settings I have a strong connection...Any suggestions?

  • Can't get App Store to use my balance not my m/c

    My account shows a balance, but the App store insists on using my m/c and it won't let me delete it either. What do I do to use my existing balance to buy apps?

    If you make a purchase (including any applicable taxes and fees) that exceeds the total cost of an app then your ciredit or debit card is charged for the balance.

  • Can't get App Store to work on MBP

    I have tried to get the download from 10.6.6. upgrade but find it stops me - I'm on 10.6.7. I can't find anything on the web to help, despite clearly lots of others are having the same problem. Rowland

    Saw this on another post.
    Applecare Senior Advisor Txx Bxxx (I have his contact info in an email he just sent) just confirmed with me that the problem people are having with the App Store not loading is an apple issue with there servers, ITS NOT YOUR IPAD so don't go restoring it!   It's not happening to everyone however but they are looking into it, its really hit or miss.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    This works for some users. Not sure why.
    Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

    Whatever the problem is you no longer have a bootable system. You need to try reinstalling OS X.
    Reinstall Snow Leopard without erasing the drive
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard 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.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.
    Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: 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 the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    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 click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • Why can't I open and retrieve my files from iPhoto and my address book after importing the files from my Power mac G5 to my new Mac Pro? I get a warning that says the new OS on my Pro doesn't open files from a Power Mac. Any idea how I can fix this?

    Why can't I open and retrieve my files from iPhoto and my Address Book after importing the files from my Power Mac G5 to my new Mac Pro? I get a warning that says the new OS on my Pro doesn't open files from a Power Mac. Any idea how I can fix this?

    For your addressbook, export the files to vCard on the PowerMac, then bring them over to your Mac Pro. For your iPhoto, copy the Users -> yourname -> Pictures folder to your Desktop on the Mac Pro, and open iPhoto on the Mac Pro holding the command and option keys.  Select the library file from that Pictures folder and open it.  It should import all the pictures into iPhoto as part of the rebuild process.  Other PowerPC to Intel migration issues are covered here: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2295
