New to APP Store--Why is there a "2" on the Icon in the Dock?

Sorry for this naive question but I'm new to Lion. Does anyone know why there's a "2" on the APP Store icon in the dock?
Thanks...

Open the App Store (click the icon in the dock). At the top right, you'll see an icon that is a circle with a down-pointing arrow. It is labeled "Updates". Click there to see what the App Store is suggesting you update.

At the app store, why do some have a + sign beside price?

The plus sign indicates it's a Universal app, i.e., one that will work on an iPad and an iPhone/iPod touch.

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.

Have you looked in your email for a confirmation of the new apple id?

2nd generation ipod touch is pretty much no good anymore? It is not able to upgrade to iOS5.1 and so will not work with many Apps in the iTunes store? Is there a way to find out if the App will work before you download?

Look to the app developer to provide that information when browsing the iTunes Store.
The iPod Touch still works, so what's your problem with it? It still works with older apps, it still does what it's intended to do.
If you aren't happy then sell it and buy a new one.

When I try opening iPhoto on my iMac (OSX 10.9.2) it says I must first update the application; when I try doing so from the App store, it says there are no updates available. I have not renamed or moved iPhoto which was preinstalled. How to solve?

When I try opening iPhoto on my iMac (OSX 10.9.2) it says I must first download the update; when I try doing so from the App store, it says there are no updates available. Stuck in a classis Catch-22 - any ideas how I might solve the problem?

Thanks a lot for your swift response. And sorry if it was a bit too hectic to go through my detailed query (which I did because it was misunderstood when I asked previously). As I've mentioned above, I was informed that updating to 5.0.1 would '''require''' me to '''delete''' the current version and then install the new one. And doing so will involve losing all my bookmarks. I guess I should have been more specific and detailed there. By losing, I didn't mean losing them forever. I'm aware that they're secured in some place and deleting and installing the software doesn't harm its existence. What I meant that if I install the new version, I'd have to delete the old one. And after installing the new version, I'd have to transfer them (bookmarks) back from wherever they are. Get it? When it updated from 3.6.9 to 3.6.13, and from 3.6.13 to 3.6.18, I didn't need to follow that process. They were already present on their own.
BTW, I'm having no problems with 3.6.18 but after learning about the existence of version 5.0.1, I'm a bit too eager to lay my hands over it.
Thanks for your help; hope this wasn't extremely long.

The new ios7 app store

The new ios7 app store, updated apps stay on the list?
why cant we get rid of them? even when we open the description,we cant close it back making the list longer.
The updates available should be visible, then the apps which we update should be removed from the list.
The images used above are only displayed as an example for the issue. Why cant we close description?

Start a new thread. This tread has nothing to do with deleting applications.
When you do start a new thread, kindly fill out your device information on your profile screen, and post in the appropriate forum. We have no idea what type of device you have, or where or how you deleted the app.

HT1904 I can download applications from my app store why?

I just bought a new iPhone I can download any application from the App Store why??

- Go to settings>iTunes & App store
- tap on your Apple ID
- tap sign out
- sign back into Apple ID
It should sign you into the Greek Store automatically but if it doesn;t then do this:
- tap you apple id
- tap view apple id
- select country/region
- if it is already selected on the Greek Store then select another country then select back onto Greece
- tap done to the top right

New Mac App Store Compatibility?

Can Flash CS5 AS3 be compiled for the new Mac App Store? It would be nice to use one code base.

There are going to be steps in the process that I don't know about, but the stripping out PowerPC part I know, although I gather there is an easier way that the one I'll now say. But at least it will get you going.
Look at this:

Open the DownSizer Automator app and point it towards your projector. You get another projector that is 9MB smaller. The copy has the minor drawback of not working, but if you go into the package’s resources, and copy the "en.lproj" from the universal projector into the same place in the Intel one, the projector will then work again.

In the new mac app store how do you limit displayed applications only to os x applications.

In the new mac app store how do you limit displayed applications only to os x applications. I do not have Iphone or ipad so all the phone junk is annoying and one cannot find the relevant software.

The Mac App Store only has apps for Mac OS X. There are no iOS apps.
The iOS apps for iPhones, iPods and iPads, are in the iTunes App Store.

You should be able to copy it from your iPhone to your computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases, and if it's compatible with your iPad you can then sync it to it

Have you tried resetting and restoring your iPod?

Aperture 3.1.2 no more stores imported pictures in projects. Downloded Update 3.2.2 cannot be opended. Actualisations only via Mac App Store. Is there a way via Internet-Download?

In the Window 'About Aperture' is below the Version: a No: 1530000.1
Are you looking in the "About" panel of your old Aperture installation or the Trial? The old version will show the licence number, if it has one. After installing a different version this chance is gone.
I bought Aperture 3.1.2 on March 2011 in the internet App Store.
If you bought from the App Store and not the Apple Store, your Aperture version has no serial number. Are you sure, you did not buy from the Apple Store? Then you should have received a serial number by email.
Can you give me a serial No
No, sorry I cannot. The serial number is bought with Aperture and only licenced to the person who bought it.
