More App Store Stuff

Thought id jot down some small things again i think would improve the app store general use, not sure if other would agree, would be nice if they did.
Owned apps: Any chance they can be sorted at the top of the list grouped together instead of having to scroll through the masses of apps or searching for it. (handy if your wanting to quickly write a review and would just look tidy)
Downloading apps: Again group them at the top above even owned apps in the list.
Reviewer List: Make reviewers names clickable to see all the reviews they have made for other apps. (useful if you notice certain people have a compatible opinion of apps to yourself, and you wish to see what else they gave good/bad reviews for).
Sort Order: A-Z Ascend/Descend, $/£ Cheap/Expensive (if in PAID list), Most/Least Downloads

No more App Store Icon after last update?

After I updated to IOS5, I got a few new Icons on my 4th Gen Ipod Touch. However, there is no 'App Store' app anymore. How do I access the App Store now?
I tried through Safari but it says it cannot open the page.
Tks

Yes, I have it again - I had two updates on Monday and even though I have run them, the icon still shows a "2".

Ssd and the Mac App Store

I have an ssd for my boot disk and keep everything else (including my home dir) on a separate hdd. The only applications I keep on the ssd are the OS X applications (in /Applications) and my own "key" applications (which I place in a separate directory on the ssd).
As I understand it (based on reading since I haven't updated to 10.6.6) downloads from the App store go directly into the /Applications folder. The way I control my system (a) I download all stuff to my ~/Downloads directory, (b) test out the new download to decide whether it has problems and whether I want to keep it, and (c) I decide where I want to put it and whether to get rid of the previous version if the download is an update.
Now of course I have backups so keeping previous versions is always available. But I don't like the idea of this app store stuff downloading directly into /Applications which is my ssd. It's an ssd, an OWC 120GB ssd with the Sandforce controller, but a ssd none the less. So I'm always concerned about needless wear on the ssd.
Comments/Opinions?

I was in a simmilar boat as some of you. I had bought a 60GB SSD, but my boot drive was currently using 180GB of data, where should i put all that ****? It wasnt gonna be enough to just move my home folder (althought that would have done most of the job). I looked around online and found symlinks. Think of symlinks as alias's that are way way more powerful. Basicly they make the computer think a given file or folder is on the boot drive, where it should be, but in relaity, its on your secoundary drive. See the link below for more info. Heres the rather short list of files i moved to my secoundary drive, just to give you guys some ideas:
1. Steam games ~60GB
2. Apple dev documentation 1.4 GB
3. GarageBand libraries 1.4 GB
4. iPhone backup files 7.86 GB
5. iTunes lib ~60GB (you can use itunes to move it instead
6. iPhoto lib ~15GB
7. sleepimage file (this is the file that backs up your ram when you put your mac to sleep, its the same size as yoru RAM) 6GB
now my boot drive is a comfortable 40/60 GB, but most of my homefolder (including the system files that you want to be accessed quickly) are on my SSD, but all the big stuff, is safe on my HDD. My symlinks didnt break when i cloned from my HDD to my SSD using Carbon Copy Cloner. All of this is free, and took me under an hour, but save me a boatload by not having to buy a bigger SSD drive.
Hope this answers your questions

About Mac App Store?

I Have an Application on My Computer that I Use it's Called Pixelmator & I Bought it on The Mac App Store a few month's ago when they 1st released The Apple Mac App Store & now Pixelmator needs an Update cause it say's it in The Mac App Store but when I Go to Update it, it say's that i should try again, there is an error, message comes on is what i mean so i go to search it in The Mac App Store & i'm not able to find it? I Think they Removed it from The Mac App Store, can they do that? Pixelmator does have an Update cause it say's it in MacUpdate probably The Update to be Lion Compadible? but right now it's hard to update it cause MacUpdate only leads me to The Mac App Store cause it has The Apple Logo, so is Pixelmator really Removed from The Mac App Store? are they allowed to delete software on there if they wanted to? & why would they? & is it a bad thing to ask this question cause of the fact that maybe there are Rules & Policy's on The Mac App Store that I Don't know about that I Don't see? what should I Do?

Well, yes, there are rules for the App Store and yes, they can stop offering something or if they offer a newer version, your old one won't update because they won't offer it any more. There is a downside to using the app store: stuff is only available as long as it is showing there.
So, I just did a search there and you are right: there are no results. So, the only thing I can think of is for you to go to the website of Pixelmator and ask them about it.

TouchID for App Store purchases doesn't work after turning phone off and back on?

TouchID for unlocking my iPhone 5s works 99.9% of the time. It's fantastic. However, using it to authorize App Store purchases, NOT in-app purchases, is less fantastic. In my case, it seems like every time I turn my phone off and back on, the phone forgets it's can use TouchID to authorize app purchases. I have to go into Settings -> General -> Passcode & Fingerprint -> (enter my passcode) -> Fingerprints -> iTunes & App Store, and turn that off. Then I have to turn it back on and enter my Apple ID password. Not exactly a quick procedure. The good news is that once I turn it back on, it works like it's supposed to until I turn my phone off and back on again. If it can remember to use TouchID for unlocking the phone, why can't it remember to use TouchID for authorizing App Store stuff? Am I missing something?
Anyone else experiencing the same thing and/or have a solution? Thanks!

Get rid of mac app store update??

I had to do a clean install of snow leopard because i didnt like the way lion ran on my macbook. 2 days later i saw an app store update icon. I found it odd since i hadnt added any apps yet. it said there is an update for the store news update. but i dont have that app so i tried to install it and delete it but it says i have to sign in with some strange email. im lost and dont know how that is possible. can someone please explain how to get rid of it?

Here's a theory about this...
When you set up your SL system, did you reinstall or continue to use your own software like personal apps, games, etc.? If so, were they all from "legitimate" sources? If not, it is possible you have a hacked version of some software which originally came from the app store and that hacked version has a _MASReceipt from the app that's confusing you.
Once upon a time a simple hack was to take the _MASReceipt from some free app store app and replace the _MASReceipt's in a non-free app store app. I think that hole is long since sealed. But if there is a wayward _MASReceipt floating around in some app bundle then the App Store stuff added to systems beyond 10.6.5 is going to find it. Apparently the app the _MASReceipt's originally came from for has been updated and you are being notified about it. And I guess _MASReceipt's contain account info adding to the confusion.
So you need to check for a _MASReceipt in some app bundle. Download a search utility that can look into app bundles, e.g., Find Any Fiile, and tell it to search for _MASReceipt. You will see a checkbox on top that says Show Package Contents. Keep that checked. It will then search within application bundles. If there's a _MASReceipt somewhere, someplace, you should be able to find it. Then trash the app that contains it.
Again, just my theory.

On your iPad tap on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account - that should give you a payments link on your account's page. Or on your computer's iTunes you should be able to edit your payment info by going into the Store > View Account menu option and logging into your account, and on your account's details page there should also be a payment link.
Changing payment info : Change or remove your payment information from your iTunes Store account (Apple ID)
If you don't get the 'none' option on the payment details screen : Why can’t I select None when I edit my Apple ID payment information?

Can I use more then one apple ID on my computer/osx app store

Hi,
I use my MBP/iMac/ipad/iphone for both business and home. Right now everything is setup to my home apple id (and I have made quite a few purchases with that). With the release of the osx app store and FCPX, my company wants to buy these for my computers. But they want to do this on their apple id. Can I run more then one id on a mac? How can I make this work as I know they will want me to start getting more apps as they are released.

You can have apps from multiple Apple IDs on one Mac. The issue will be that to update Mac apps bought with A ID #1 will require signing into A ID #1 in the MAS. And later when apps bought with A ID #2 need an update you will need to sign into A ID #2 in the MAS to update them. If you can keep that straight and can abide that requirement, there should be no issues.
The same will be true to update iOS apps, but using iTunes.

The App store is a iOS function and cannot be deleted. Try checking other home screens/folders and see if you can locate it. If not, go into Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.

If you go to iTunes on your computer click on the App Store and scroll all the way down . In the bottom right of the screen is a map logo. Click on that and then chose the flag for the country you want

I am feeling so ripped off right now. I have wanted a Mac for years and believed the hype about it's stability and I have had more trouble with this Imac 2011 than I have ever had with a pc. It locks up with several software products from APP store.

I am feeling so ripped off right now. I have wanted a Mac for years and believed the hype about it's stability and I have had more trouble with this Imac 2011 than I have ever had with a pc. It locks up with several software products from APP store. I have already had to have a technician to look at it and really couldn't figure out what the deal was. I was told that the APP store software should give me no problems but the truth is that it locks up on the software. This machine is only 4 weeks old and I am using 37 g on a 1 T hard drive. There is no reason for it to be locking up. Also, when I try to use the help program, it always tells me that I am not connected to the internet even though I have used both the mail program and the browser with no problem just before that. I successfully used the help program on my pc lots of times. I did not need a $2000. plus machine to just get email. I just wanted to unload on somebody that might understand my pain and after checking out this site...I think there is a few of you out there.

I was told that the APP store software should give me no problems but the truth is that it locks up on the software.
The apps downloaded from the Mac App Store are written by third party developers, not Apple. If you have problems with those apps you need to visit the support area for their websites. Launch the App Store, locate the app name. You should see a support link.

Go to ~/Library/Preferences. Move the com.apple.helpviewer.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Trash. Restart your Mac, try the Help menu.
If you need help finding that file, hold down the Finder icon in the Dock then click: New Finder Window. From the menu bar top of your screen click: Go > Go to Folder. Type this in exactly as you see it here: ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.helpviewer.plist That will take you right to that file.
(.plist) files stores information about a particular app or in this case, the Help viewer. Often times deleting the .plist file resolves the issue.
It's fine to "unload"... we understand that you expect your iMac to be stable but there are times when things go awry. That's why we have these forums so that you can you get help.
