New updates in app store not showing up...

The app store icon on my macbook dock shows there are 2 new updates, when i open the the app store and select "updates" nothing appears. This has happened ever since I've upgraded the OS to Maverick. Please help...

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this test is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account. Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The "Guest User" login created by "Find My Mac" is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.

    Hi, Pepe6. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    I would recommend closing all applications in multitasking and power cycling the device.  Test the App Store after processing these steps.

  • App Store not showing up in ios8

    AApp store and iTunes Store not showing up after ios8 upgrade, nor am I able to delete apps (they wiggle bot no x icon). Anyone having a similar problem?

    Check what you have set in Settings > General > Restrictions - if 'Installing Apps' is 'off' then the App Store will be hidden, and if 'Deleting Apps' is 'off' then you won't be able to delete apps ; and if 'iTunes Store' is 'off' then iTunes will be hidden

  • App store not showing app details

    Is something wrong with my ipad2 or is there some setting I am not aware of?
    Here is what happened: I go to app store to search for an app. Clicked on the app icon to view details. Then proceeded to buy it and got it installed. I then went to search for a different app. Tried to view the details of that other app by clicking on the icon but nothing happens - the page showing the details of that app does not show up. I tried clicking on the other 11 app icons that showed up under that search. None of them responds. But all the other touch sensitive parts of the app store still functions - search box, filter pull down options, sort, next page, etc, etc.
    This is not the first time this phenomenon occured. In previous times I did not remember what I did to get to that state where clicking on the app icons in the app store did not respond but I clearly remember on numerous occasions there is no response to clicking.
    So is there a setting I don't know about or is my ipad2 malfunctioning?
    Thanks.
    Just want to add that the little icon with the $ sign on it to buy apps still works. Just the icon with the picture in it does not work.

    Thanks, King_Penguin, for the suggestion and quick response.
    Before I saw your response, I turned the ipad off and turned it back on (but did not reboot). Since that, I went into the app store and I could get into app details again.
    I did not know of this feature you mentioned. Very useful. I tried it and many apps were shown to be running - even many apps that had been recently (past days) run but not since turnning off/on a few minutes ago were still shown as running. That is very weird. At the very least it's not a very efficient use of resources. I killed every single one of them incl app store. After this I could go in & out of various app detail screens.
    Should this phenomenon happen again I will try your solution first and see if that alone will do it and report back here.
    Thanks again. This is a useful feature to know about.

  • App Store not showing updates

    When I got to "Updates" in the App Store on my iPhone, it nearly always says "All Apps Are Up to Date", but I've discovered through individual searching that a number of the apps that I have installed have updated versions available. This is pretty frustrating, since I don't want to (and shouldn't have to!) regularly go through and manually check for updates for all of my installed apps. Is there anything that can be done to get the App Store to correctly check and display when updates are available?

    Mine is even more bizzare. I'm getting the same problem as you guys where the app store on my iPhone does not seem to be able to detect new updates. To add even more grief, my app store icon on the phone is still showing the number counter with the number 3. Basically that was the last time it was able to retrieve three apps requiring updates and then after updating, the update feature ceased to function and the number has not reset itself.

  • Mac App Store not showing Updates or Purchases

    After upgrading my Mac OS to Yosemite, my App Store isn't showing anything under the "Updates" tab (It did some automatic updates in the background, so the number of pending updates dropped from 13 to 2).
    Although I have already signed in to Mac App Store, it says:"You must sign in to view your purchases" under the "Purchases" tab. "Sign in" is a clickable link but when I click it nothing happens.

    I'm having the exact same problem.
    I can sign in via the menu bar-store-sign in, but it doesn't change anything.
    In the bottom right corner of the updates page there's a US flag icon showing, indicating I'm in the wrong store. Unable to change to Norwegian.
    I am also unable to go into iCloud in system preferences:

  • App store not showing up in software update..  Any work around for this?

    When I run software update it runs and then says that all software is up to date. I don't have an option to install the app store.. Is there any other way to install it?

    I totally understand the confusion. That's how I ended up here on the discussion. I am running 10.6.5, so according to Apple's instructions below, this should have worked. Apparently, they need to correct their instructions. Here's what the App Store page says about installing it:
    The Mac App Store is available as a free software update for Mac computers running Mac OS X v10.6 or later. If you have an earlier version of Mac OS X, you will need to upgrade to Mac OS X Snow Leopard.
    1. Update your software.
    Click the Apple icon, then choose Software Update. A dialog will appear on your desktop. Click the Install button in the dialog to begin the installation. You will be instructed to restart your Mac to complete the process.
    Thanks for clearing it up.

  • App Store not showing available update (for X-Code)

    Hello,
    I regularly check if there are update's for the applications I've purchased and downloaded from the Mac App Store.
    So also yesterday.
    Result: "all applications are up to date / no updates available".
    I have Apple's X-Code installed. Version 4.2.1.
    As I browsed the App Store and clicked on X-Code, I saw that the current version was 4.3.3.
    Anyone an idea why the App Store said all my applications where up to date where that wasn't the case?
    Do I have to check each installed application manually to be sure I have the latest update?
    MacBook Pro (early 2011 model) running Mac OS X 10.7.4
    Kind regards,
    emeu1

    If you downloaded Xcode from the App Store the update should have been available but there is a work around for this.
    Download this free utility to uninstall Xcode and all the associated files > Download AppCleaner for Mac
    Then launch AppCleaner. Then drag the Xcode app from the Applications folder to the AppCleaner window. Delete all the associated files listed in that window.
    Now go to the App Store and re download the app. That will install the latest 4.3.3 version.
    How to re download apps from the Mac App Store:
    Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
    Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
    Select which apps you want to re download. Then right or control click where you see Installed  then click Install.
    Make sure and use the same Apple ID used for the original download.

  • App store not showing app I bought as "installed"

    (I already posted this under "Snow Leopard" because the link to App Store from the main page was broken. Now I found it here)
    I bought several apps from the App store before March 30. They all show up under the "Purchased" tab.  Also, the "Buy" button in the main application page says "Installed".  So far so good.
    However, this is not the case with the application I bought yesterday (iPhoto).  While it shows up under "Purchases", the "Buy" button say "14.99 buy" and if I click on it I get the message "Couldn't complete purchase because you already have it. Check Software Updates on your Mac for available updates".
    That is, it behaves as if I hadn't bought it from the App Store and I will not get App Store updates.  This is exactly what it tells me about pre App Store software such as Pages and Numbers.
    Finally, I have the old iPhoto too (renamed iPhoto09). However I have both the App Store iMovie (11) and the CD one (iMovie 09) and that didn't cause this problem.
    How do I fix this?  More technical pointers to how App Store and classic Software Updates work and interact are welcome (maybe this can be fixed by editing some system files).
    Thanks in advance

    This is exactly what it tells me about pre App Store software such as Pages and Numbers.
    Unfortunately that is not correct behavior either. If you have an Apple app that you acquired from another source, all the MAS should do is show you that app for sale, as it does any other app.
    I would download the 10.6.7 uPdate Combo;
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1361
    Remove the MAS with the free AppCleaner to get all of its auxillary files;
    http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/system_disk_utilities/appcleaner.html
    After removing the MAS, restart and install the Update Combo. Be sure to Repair Permissions with Disk Utility before and after the installation. While installing the Update Combo do not multitask, let the Mac install the Update Combo with nothing else happening.
    The update will install a new MAS which hopefully behaves better.

  • App Store not showing app version number anymore.

    I noticed that starting from a few weeks back, Apps with new updates in the 'Updates' tab do not show the version number of the app. Now only the app size in MB and 'What's New' is shown.
    Anybody can shed light on this ?
    Thanks.

  • Lion download on mac app store not showing progress

    Hi,
    I kind need a help. I download the lion, but it's not showing any download progress bar on the Purchased tab. Even if i try to pause the download, I'm not able to resume it again. I try downloaded other apps and it works fine, I can see the download progress and able to pause-resume it.
    Anybody experience the same with me ?
    thank you.

    Hi ...
    Your profile indicates you have v10.8.3 installed on your Mac.
    If that is the case, click the Apple menu icon top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click Software Update.
    Restart your Mac after the updates are installed. The Mac App Store red badge icon should be available in the Dock for updates. Also for Notifications.
    If you have problems using Software Update, a workaround is to install the OS X Mountain Lion Update v10.8.4 (Combo)
    Make sure and restart your Mac after the combo is installed.
