Mavericks download not recognised by app store

I have downloaded Mavericks but the app store does recognise the download. It says "download" under the Mavericks icon
Do I need to reinstall? .. If so what is the best way?
help appreciated as machine running slow

"Download" is available if you want to re download Mavericks on multiple Macs.
You can re download Mavericks to create a bootable drive > How to make a bootable Mavericks install drive | Macworld
If you don't need to re download again, then just ignore the Download button.

  • Some installed applications are not recognised by App Store

    Hi,
    I have a few apps installed on my mac book pro. Trouble is that some are not being recognised by App store hence it does not check if an update is available for them. One of them is disturbingly FaceTime. It is part of Lion OS and I have no idea why it shows up as a purchase in my mac app store. The others such as Garageband, iMovie and iPhoto are showing as installed though..
    can this be resolved?

    Nohing wrong with what you see.
    App Store usualy only shows updates for Apps that were bought/downloaded from the App Store.
    The Facetime app in the App Store is only for OSX Snow Leopard but not for OSX Lion since it became a part of OSX with Lion.
    Garageband, iMovie and iPhoto ar shown as installed in the App Store since they were part of the iLife suite that was preinstalled on your Mac when you bought it together with OSX Lion.

  • OS X Mavericks does not install from app store, keeps failing

    Got ready to download the OS x Mavericks today from the app store.
    Clicked on install, entered my Apple ID, Starting downloading and boom, just hangs half way through, wont restart the download, have to keep logging off and back in to allow the app store to let me download it again. No other updates in the queue waiting to update, all i just wanna do is install Mavericks thats it. Please tell me how i can manually download this and make sure it completes and then install it offline if possible?
    Thanking you in advance

    There is nowhere other than the App Store to download it from. You may find other sites offering it online, but if you do, those sites are distributing it illegally and you should not trust those copies.
    As to the problem, it's possible that this is an issue with your network. Try downloading on another network. Also, disable any anti-virus software, or any other kind of internet filtering/blocking software.

  • HT2589 Apple ID not recognised in App Store

    My apple ID is registered to the UK.  I can purchase books and music without any problem but I cannot upgrade any previously downloaded apps as I get a message saying my Apple ID is registered to the Emirati store.  How can I resolve this.  I have double checked and my account is definitely registered to the UK. I think this issue started when I did the IOS 6.0.1 upgrade.

    Can you sign out of your device, then back in? Let me know if this changes anything.

    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.

    I bought a Mac Book Pro retina display, Serial Number  C02J*****2, on 8/11/2012. Unfortunately, I am unable to download updates from the App store.Whenever I tried to download updates, it shows me an error message, "we could not complete your request. there is an error in the App Store. Try again later (100). Your Apple ID has been disabled, contact iTune support". However,the problem still persists even after my password has been successfully reset. What is is the error in the app store? I really need help to resolve this issue.
    Moreover,I also need help how to update to the mountain lion free of charge as my Mac pro is four(4) days old.

  • I downloaded Lion from the app store on to my iMac and did not save it to a thumb before installing.  Do I have to buy it again to install on my Macbook Pro and iPad or is there another way to do that?

    I downloaded Lion from the App Store on to my iMac and did not save it to a thumb before installing.  Do I have to buy it again to install  it on my Macbook Pro and iPad,  or is there another way to do that?
    All my electronics are about a year old.   iPad is Model MB293LL (4.2.1) only wi-fi - no phone.
    MacBook Pro is  OSX 10.6.8 Build 10K549.  Also have an AT&T iPhone that I basically use as a Palm, since I changed carriers.
    Thank you for your help. 
    ps: I got an error message and it looks like this did not get posted the first time.  2nd try.

    Open the Mac App Store on your MacBook Pro
    Hold the Option key and click on “Purchases”
    Hold the Option key and click on “OS X Lion” from the purchased app list
    “Installed’ should now say “Install” which allows you to download OS X Lion.
    This assumes you are using the same Apple ID on both computers.
    Lion does not get installed on an iPad. It runs iOS.

    First, contact the developer for support and suggestions. If they cannot or will not help, go here:

    and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store.

  • Can I have a Mavericks disc mailed to my house? I had trouble downloading it through the App Store, and now it won't do anything at all when redownloading it.

    Can I have a Mavericks disc mailed to my house? I had trouble downloading it through the App Store, and now it won't do anything at all when redownloading it.

    Apple doesn't create installation disks for OSX 10.7 and later. You can create your own disk/USB bootable installer, but this requires downloading the installation package from the app store first.
    1) Make sure you have a stable internet connection. Try directly connecting via ethernet port, versus Wifi, if you are experiencing a weak Wifi Signal or intermediate loss of connectivity
    2) From the App Store, go to the Menu Bar, Store > Sign out.
    3) Navigate to the /Applications folder and drag the partially completed download of the installer to the trash.
    4) Open the App store, sign back in, and redownload Mavericks.

  • Hacked Message: Your Apple ID was just used to download Podcasts from the App Store on a computer or device that had not previously been associated with that Apple ID

    So I just got a message from Apple saying
    "Your Apple ID was just used to download Podcasts from the App Store on a computer or device that had not previously been associated with that Apple ID"
    I am new to Apple products and signed up to the app store about an hour before but have not downloaded any apps yet.
    I also turned on iCloud Drive.
    Neither of these are Podcasts and I do not have any Podcasts on my device.
    The message is a really poor warning, it could for instance list the IP address which would immediately tell me if it was me.
    It could list what type of device it was.
    It could list what Podcast was downloaded.
    But no, just some random message, probably generated by the really bad default iPhone settings that put ease of use before security.
    I have a long complex password that I do not want ot have to change just because Apple generates a stupid message.
    On Google you have a log of all logins and devices, is there something similar with Apple, so I can figure this out?

    it said it was used to download a Podcast from the App Store
    I have not down downloaded any podcasts and there are no podcasts in the podcasts app, of course if Apple were to list the podcast that was downloaded, the IP address and the device it might help one dismiss the message.
    I am running the latest v8.1.1 although how the version of my OS related to a message generated by Apple servers is beyond me, unless my device is not authenticating properly so Apple thinks I am someone else but then as I have not downloaded any Podcasts that would not seem to be the issue.
    It does NOT say you downloaded a podcast. First, podcasts are not downloaded from the App Store; they are downloaded from the iTunes store.
    It's very clear to me; the app named  "Podcasts" was downloaded, not a podcast. "Podcasts" is a app provided by Apple for managing and downloading podcasts.

  • HT2534 i just bought an ipod, but i cnt download anthing in the app store because i do not have a credit card or any of  those billing settlements.. please help me...=(

    i just bought an ipod, but i cnt download anthing in the app store because i do not have a credit card or any of  those billing settlements.. please help me...=(

    This same thing happend to me,  you have to make a new account and you have to chose your birthday as if your under 18 or 16,  because if you dont own a credit card,  you shouldnt be over this age,  so basictly just make a new email and appleID and when you chose your birthday,  do it under 16 years of age (or your REAL birthday) and you should have an option of clicking "none" for credit card options,  but if you want to buy something,  you will have to do the credit card stuff,  or you can just buy an apple gift card at basictly any store,  So this is how i fixed my problum,  i hope it works for you,  write back your responce of how it worked out please! 

  • I get the message "Install Adobe Flash" can't be opened because it was not downloaded from the Mac App Store. This is the first time I have gotten the message. What do I need to do?

    Hi Sandra,
    you'll need to edit the security settings to install programs 'Mac App Store and identified developers'
    Open the Systems Preference and go to Security & Privacy.  There will be a section in the 'General' tab for 'Allow apps downloaded from:"  The default selection is 'Mac App Store'.  Change this setting to 'Mac App Store and identified developers".
    This screenshot is taken on OS X 10.10 (Yosemite), so it may look slightly different if you're on a different OS X version.

  • ""Install Adobe Flash Player.app" can't be opened because... not downloaded from the Mac App Store"

    I jsut upgraded to 10.9 and it is up to date and also my safari is up to date (no updates available for it). My safari is saying that my flash is out of date. when I follow the links it lets me download but when I double click to install it tell me "“Install Adobe Flash Player.app” can’t be opened because it was not downloaded from the Mac App Store.". When I install the flash UNinstaller and try to install that, it tells me the same. I ALSO found the exact same problem when I tried to install the acrobat installer (some tried to download a pdf and the page told me that my acrobat reader 'might' be out of date). Any thought?

    You're running up against the GateKeeper.
    Download the offline installer: Flash Player 12.0.0.44 (Mac OS X) by right clicking and choosing "Download Linked File As".
    Mount the DMG and when it opens, right click the installer and choose "Open".
    You'll see a warning. Click "Open" again.
    It will run from there.
