My App Store is not downloading nor updating.  HELP!

When I download new app or update existing apps, it does not work. I know I have the right password. I'm able to do DL/U on my MacPro using same acct. When I try, it starts to look like it will work (screen moves to existing icon or starts to create new icon) but after a couple if secs just stops (no new app and existing icon just refreshes) and the AppStore icon still shows updates available. I've tried with WiFi and on airtime same results.

  • I just got a new imac, App store says I downloaded garageband update and it says it's installed.  But there's nothing new to it.  Is there something I'm suppose to do?  I restarted the imac, no difference

    I just got a new imac, App store says I downloaded garageband update and it says it's installed.  But there's nothing new to it.  Is there something I'm suppose to do?  I restarted the imac, no difference

    Weird, that's not the one I was initially downloading but I think that is the one that installed, so I think that solves that.  But now the problem is that the one I was updating is no longer being shown.  It's over 1gb that had all the loops and instruments.
    Now when I try to use say strings lunar strings.  It tells me to download at app store.  It doesn't show.  I go back to garageband try again and says the instrument or loop is currently being installed.  But it's not.

  • How to upgrade to aperture 3.5 when the app store does not show the update. I did buy aperture 3 on DVD not thru the app store. what to do?

    I can not open aperture databases anymore as osx10.9 keeps telling me i have opened it with a newer version, which i have not but i understand from other discussions that thru the upgrade of iphoto osx automatically thinks that you have opened with aperture 3.5. the app store does not show me the update as i have not purchased the program thru the app store but on dvd. what to do?

    If you are running MacOS X 10.9 and Aperture is installed in your Applications folder and simply called Aperture, not Apertre 3 or something, the AppStore should be showing you the update.
    Have you already updated to Aperture 3.4.5 from the Support page  Aperture 3.4.5?
    Try to update manually to 3.4.5 and then reboot and sign again into the AppStore with your AppleID and look at the Update page.
    For some forum members it helped to set the main system language to English U.S. to make the update finally show.

  • TS4319 IMovie 9.0.7 update from the App store will not download. Error indicates their "a problem with the purchase".

    For several days now I have had a software update for iMovie (9.0.7). When I try to download the update I receive the message "there was an error with the purchase".

    Try this.
    After signing into the Mac App Store (MAS) with your iTunes Apple ID, look at the Purchased page. You should see the three bundled iLife apps listed with Accept buttons. After you have accepted them and Apple has verified that they came on a new Mac and assigned them to your Apple ID and iTunes/MAS account, you should be able to update them.

  • Notification that iTunes needs updating in mac app store will not go, despite updating??

    i cannot get rid of the notification that iTunes needs updating, despite updating several times??

    I am having a similar problem. I get one of two errors: "We could not complete your request. There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (null)" OR "We could not complete your purchase INSTALL_ERROR_DISTRIBUTION_SIGNED_BY_APPLE".
    I am having this trouble on a brand new MacBook Pro running OS X 10.7.1. My firewall is off and no virus software is installed.
    I can download and update apps on a different computer using OS X 10.6.8 just fine.
    Any other recommendations?

  • Apps from the app store are not downloaded to the proper location

    My iTunes library is stored on a networked drive and the iTunes Music Folder Location preference is set to that drive. The problem is that when I purchase an app from the app store it is not stored in the folder that is set in iTunes, it stores it on my local drive under Music/iTunes/Mobile Applications.
    Any ideas how I can have those apps stored where all of my other iTunes downloads are stored besides me having to manually move them?

    My does the same thing but I have my music library on an external Hard Drive. I was glad I found this out before I nuked my machine and reloaded the OS. I moved the apps to the hard drive and then pointed each app in itunes to it new location. That worked until I downloaded a new app and it put that app on my notebooks hard drive. For some reason apple has this as a default location that can not be changed. I think it will come back to hurt them when people like you and I do formate their hard drives and thinking that their apps are backed up. I guess we will have to wait to see if this is fixed in future updates of iTunes.

  • I have 2 Apple ID's but the app store will not let me update iPhoto with either

    I have a MacBook pro 2011. For some reason i have ended up with 2 Apple ID's i must have forgotten something or i changed my account name from when i first set up the machine. Some apps allow me to upgrade with one but not the other. I have upgraded to Yosemite via a clean install at the Apple store. I have loaded back on my back up but iPhoto isn't there and it has asked me to upgrade via the App store. Unfortunately neither Apple ID's will let me upgrade.
    The Message on screen is:
    Upgrade unavailable with this Apple ID
    This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled
    Do i head back to the Apple store and talk with them or is there something i can do at home?
    Thanks in advance of any help

    I think you're confusing RAM memory with hard drive memory storage...the two aren't the same. 
    Although you're being told you need 2GB of RAM to run Mountain Lion....I would consider 4GB the minimum.  You should be able to upgrade the RAM in your iMac to 4GB for well under $100.

  • Previously downloaded apps in the app store are not downloadable any more

    I had deleted apps on my iPad2 and now I'm trying to re-download them again from the Apps store, but these apps are dimmed in color, which indicates that I'm unable to download them any more. (The cloud is grayed out). Can anyone help?

    Perhaps if you told us what those apps were someone here could verify if the apps are presently in the app store. Apps do not necessarily remain in the app store forever. Apps may be removed from the app store for a variety of reasons. If they are removed you will not be able to download them again.
    If you have been syncing your iPad with iTunes on your computer you may have transferred all purchases from the iPad to iTunes. If you did that you could copy the apps stored in iTunes back to your iPad.

  • My ipad2 app store is not opening nor responding

    It's my third day that my ipad2 is acting very weird and the app store is giving me a loading bar and nothing happens meanwhile safari is acting very weird with the facebook at the same time and it's not opening too.
    Anyone can help ???

    Here are a number of basic troubleshooting things to try. Take note of number 3 & 4
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    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.
    Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Cache. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • App Store will not let me update Growl

  • IOS5-App store iPad not downloading

    I have an odd iPad 1 iOS5 behavior...Tried all the following on my iPhone 4 iOS5 on my wi-fi.  Not a problem.
    When I download an app from the store:  New, iCloud, or purchased:
    1. It attempts to download (install, AppleID, etc...)
    2. Goes in to "waiting..."
    3  Never changes to "loading..."
    I have switch to my neighbor's network but no effect.
    I have reset my iPad twice with no improvements.
    Any others having this issue?
    (One issue I had with installing iOS5 was that it locked up, threw a non-specific error and I had to Hard Reset it)

    So strange...It's working now.  I don't know what would make the difference.
    In order to get by before...I was doing all the updates on my Mac then cable syncing the iPad.
    Sorry I don't have a good answer.
    Part of my investigation:
    I was wondering if iCloud or clearwire might have something to do with capping the data but I couldn't prove that out...
    iCloud is off.  No Wi-Fi sync...
    One thing I did was to put a light timers on my switch & WI-FI modem.  They reset every night while use is minimal...I notice that my connectivity via Clearwire has really improved. 

  • ITunes and app store will not let me update my credit card information

    I'm trying to update my credit card information on my Mac, but iTunes won't let me. It continually states "Your credit card information does not match your bank's records itunes" but I am 100% sure I am inputting the information right (I've been doing it for hours now), the card is active, and it works--I just purchased something elsewhere. What is happening? What should I be doing?

    Check in with iTS to see if there is something else going on you don't see...
