My iTunes ID is not recognized by the App Store after downloading Yosemite

My iTunes ID is not a mac.com id but a hotmail.com id. That is how I have been buying music. Now I need to download updates for the new Yosemite software and the App store is not recognizing my hotmail.com id. How do I clear this up?

I have the same problem on my iMac.  I was able to download and install OS X 10.10 Yosemite on my macbook pro retina.  i went to my iMac and when I enter my Apple ID and Password (which is correct), it says "Your device or computer could not be verified.  Contact support for assistance".  It won't let me download Yosemite.  FWIW, I can start up iTunes and log in with my Apple ID and Password without any problem.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

    DNS -
    Some folks resolve download and other connection issues by using either OpenDNS or Google Public DNS services. The best use is to use it as the DNS configuration in your modem/router/gateway device, but often the configuration in the computer or iOS device will over ride the other configuration if you don't have access.

  • How do you clear completed updates from the app store after downloading is complete?

    How do you clear completed updates from the app store after downloading is complete on iOS 7.0.2?

    You don't. It's how things are done now, likely to accommodate those that have auto update turned on.  IT's been said that the updates will just drop off after a period of time but  time will tell on that.

  • HT1368 My wishlist is not working on the app store i can not find the add to wishlish icon but it is working fine with the itunes store so i am able to add films and music but not apps does anyone know how to fix this

    My wishlist is not working in the app store on my ipad it is woking fine in itunes store so i can add films and music but the icon "add to wish list" is not available on the app store so does anyone know how to fix this 

    The wish list only works on apps you have to pay for. To get it tap the icon of the app you want to save. After it opens at the upper right corner is a box with a arrow. Tap that then tap add to wish list list in the box that opens.

  • HT204266 I can not log into the App Store, even though I am logged in to iTunes. ? Help please :)

    I can not log into the App Store, even though I am logged in to App Store and my password is entered into the settings. This appended after I accidentally switched to the British version of iTunes and I logged out and back in to get to the US. Now, I keep getting an error message that I can not log into the App Store. I have tried updating it to the computer and restarting, but still keep getting the error message. Help please! :)

    I am afraid all apps are tied to the Apple ID they are purchased with and are not transferable.
    Your son have to buy those apps with his own Apple ID and start from scratch.

  • How can I install Mountain Lion in a VMware fusion, if it came with my macbook pro, and not purchased through the app store?

    I have Mountain Lion on my Macbook Pro with Retina but I want to install Mountain Lion in a VM for application testing. I try to install it from the recovery partition but it states that when I put in my apple ID, it states that it was not purchased through the App Store. My OS came with my Macbook. Is there anything that I can do to get it to install in a VM?
    Thanks

    Iphone 5 is not connecting to the app store. I am using a verizon iphone 5 with 64 gig   IOS 6 and latest ITUNES, Itunes works fine. When I try and get apps I get an error that I can not connect to the app store server

    Can't connect to the iTunes Store.
    There have been some issues being reported with connecting to the iTunes and App Stores in the past few days as well so it may be something on Apple's end that is causing the problem for you.

  • Ever since I updated my iPod software my iPod will not connect to the app store and won't let me download anything. help

    ever since I updated my iPod software my iPod will not connect to the app store and won't let me download anything. help

    Hook it up to your computer and open itunes. try to download hte apps via your computer. Every time you update hte software you have to reagree to the itunes terms of service. Sometimes it's hard to get it to come up on the device, but is easier on a computer.

  • HT4623 My passbook will not connect to the app store. How do i fix this?

    My passbook will not connect to the app store. How do i fix this?

    I got the same error... the trick didn't fix it... but I don't think it has to.
    I already have had the current American Airlines app and happen to be flying later today. I was in the app to view my boarding pass and it gave me the option to add it... clicked to do so..
    and now that boarding pass is in Passbook!
    While it's frustrating not to be able to see all the apps available that support passbook via that connection that isn't happening... and apps that support passbook don't seem to have the keyword 'passbook' to come up in a reg itunes search.. Apps you have and apps you want that you know support passbook are all you need. I initially thought had to download special passbook apps or something - not the case. Just grab the apps you want normal via the iTunes store - and those that support passbook allow you to add the cards and passes and such to it.
    Hope this helps.

  • Updated my iPhone 5 to ios7, in the App store after installing updates I now have a never ending list of the Apps I've updated.  How do I get rid of the list after they've been updated?  In the previous version I did not have an annoying permanent list.

    iOS 7 allows you to have your apps update automatically. Therefore, the list of what has been updated stays so that you can see what was updated, when and what the release notes say. It has been suggested that they list has a limit, much like Recents. Currently, there is no way for the user to delete the entries manually. Just try not to look at them.

  • TS1702 I upgraded my iPad 2 to ios6 & now certain apps (YouTube ) are gone & are not listed in the App Store. Another app (ny1 news) no longer works! Again it's not listed in the App Store. How do you correct this problem?

    What happened to mt apps after uploading ios6
    some are gone, some don't work & they are not listed in the App Store anymore

    I found the following in the Macbook Help, and the last bullet worked for me.
    "You can uninstall apps you got from the Mac App Store, from other websites, or from discs. You can’t uninstall apps that are part of OS X, such as Safari and Mail.
    Apps downloaded from the Mac App Store: Click the Launchpad icon in the Dock, hold down an app’s icon until all the icons begin to jiggle, then click an app’s delete button . If you later want the app, you can reinstall it from the Mac App Store.If an icon doesn’t have a delete button, it can’t be uninstalled in Launchpad. For more information about Launchpad, see Use Launchpad to view and open apps.
    Apps that have an uninstaller: In the Finder sidebar, click Applications. If an app is inside a folder, it might have an Uninstaller. Open the app’s folder. If you see Uninstall [App] or [App] Uninstaller, double-click it and follow the onscreen instructions.
    Apps that don’t have an uninstaller: In the Finder sidebar, click Applications. Drag the app from the Applications folder to the Trash (located at the end of the Dock), then choose Finder > Empty Trash.If you change your mind, before emptying the Trash, select the app in the Trash, then choose File > Put Back.WARNING: When you empty the Trash, the app is permanently removed from your Mac. If you have any files that you created with the app, you may not be able to open them."

  • Why is the Fios mobile app not available in the App Store?

    Why is the Fios mobile app not available in the App Store?

    Sorry to say but they have. And even advertised it on their home page as recently as today. You can view about 70 different channels on your iPhone or iPad. Anyone else out there who knows the answer?
