OS X Mavericks Issue with App Store.

I am using Macbook Pro 17" (late 2011 model). Recently I installed OS X mavericks from App Store. After a month of using I am facing a weird issue. App store, terminal, text edit, ibooks, Maps don't open at all. What shall I do? Fresh Installation?
I dont mind a fresh installation. But thats a 5.6 gigs Installation. Thats not free!

Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
Download and reinstall the 10.10.1 update.

  • Are there known issues with App Store crashing on iPad?

    Are there known issues with App Store crashing when trying to update apps on iPad 2 with ios6?

    Saw this on another post.
    Applecare Senior Advisor Txx Bxxx (I have his contact info in an email he just sent) just confirmed with me that the problem people are having with the App Store not loading is an apple issue with there servers, ITS NOT YOUR IPAD so don't go restoring it!   It's not happening to everyone however but they are looking into it, its really hit or miss.
    In the meantime ...........

    Try this first - 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.
    This works for some users. Not sure why.
    Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

  • Anyone else having issues with app store reviews not showing up?

    I have maybe about a 50% success rate in posting reviews. The conspiracy theorist in me notices that I have never had a positive review not post, and that negative reviews for apps in the 'featured app' sections seem to never post.
    Anyone? Anyone?

    Hey rachelfromsheffield,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with connectivity to the iTunes and App Stores. The following resource may provide a solution:

  • IPAD issue with app store loading..

    Hi All,
    I have very strange issue of using app store in my new Ipad. In my home network if I connects to app store it shows "loading..." and after few minutes it says "Cannot connect to iTunes Store" (But Safari web browser works fine and able to connect to any website. Using my laptop itunes, I am able to connect to itunes store.) The same problem is encountering in my Ipod Touch(IOS 6) also. But If I use any of these apple devices in any other network outside my home network(even with my neighbor's network who uses same service provider as me) it works very well. I use Beetel ADSL2+router(450TC1). Even I connected a new WiFi router to this modem and tried, but no luck. So guessing it has nothing to do with WiFi router. I am trying this for the past few weeks. Can anybody help to find out the issue?. I suspect it could be some issue with modem, because it works in all other networks..

  • Issues with App Store and signing in

    I have the iPhone 4 and just recently it started doing "funny" things.
    I have several updates available through my app store but when I go in to update them it gives me the error "Cannon connect to iTunes store". I also cannot download any apps through my phone. When I try to, it asks for my password but I can't put it in before the pop up disappears. Then my phone won't let me do anything.
    I have restarted and even restored my phone, but I'm still having issues. I read on another post to log out of Itunes and log back in. Well, I logged out but I cannot log back in. When I click sign in, via settings or through app store, the pop up comes up asking for my apple id and password. Again, I can only get 2-3 characters in before the pop up disappears.
    Can ANYONE help me? I've been searching through forums for about 3 hours now and I haven't found anything helpful!
    Thank You!!!!!

    Peter ...
    I can view Featured and Charts on my iPhone running iOS 6.
    Since this is happening on both your iPad and iPhone, first try resetting.
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    Then restart the devices.
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    Then try the iTunes and App Stores.

  • Update 9.4.3 issues with app store

    So I have updated to the new 9.4.3 iPhoto 4 times since it's release, and every day the app store tells me that I need to update iPhoto 9.4.3 to iPhoto 9.4.3.  Is there a reason why app store keeps telling me I have  new update available even though I have already installed the update many times?
    Thanks.

    There is a support link on the right of the App Store window - you need to contact them for App store support

  • Sharing iPad issues with app store

    My daughter and I share an iPad. Each time I try to install an app her account id appears and won't allow me to sign in. Please tell me how to avoid the preset id from appearing.

    There is no "preset" ID.
    The ID is whichever ID is signed into the store.
    Settings > Store, tap the ID, then Sign out and Sign in with the account you want.

  • How do I install Mavericks from the App Store if I erased my HD?

    My mbp has been acting funny and slow, and I think I may have had some corrupted files. I have my computer backed up to time machine, and additionally I saved all my important files, photos etc to the external HD before I began. Then I erased my HD. Everything I read indicated that since I had installed mavericks previously (and legitimately), I would be able to do so again from disk utility after I finished erasing the HD so long as I had a working Internet connection. Well, I do, but now when I click "Reinstall OS X" I get a screen with Mavericks and then an error message saying, "this is not a supported method of installing the operating system/ please run Install OS X Mavericks.app that you downloaded from the app store." But I erased my hard drive! I really don't want to use my time machine backup because I'm worried some of my files are corrupted, and wouldn't that just put me back in the exact same position?
    For the record, it's a late 2010 MBP that originally had Snow Leopard. My boyfriend upgraded it to Mavericks for me a few weeks ago.

    Clean Install of Snow Leopard
    Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
    the drive and everything on it.
         1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
             with your computer.  Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
             After the chime press and hold down the  "C" key.  Release the key when you see
             a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
         2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
             button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
             After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
             size.)  Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.  Set the number of
             partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
             and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
             (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
         3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed
             with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
         4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
             Assistant. Be sure you configure your initial admin account with the exact same
             username and password that you used on your old drive. After you finish Setup
             Assistant will complete the installation after which you will be running a fresh
             install of OS X.  You can now begin the update process by opening Software
             Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your installation current.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.
    You  can then re-download Mavericks from the App Store.

    It's hard to tell what's wrong with your Apple ID. Maybe the country you have registered is different from what your friend have registered. Apps are available differently in different areas. That's what I see.

    I have brought ipad 2 from USA to INDIA(32 GB WIFI). I am unable to register with app store using my credit card using india details. Pls help.

    You cannot. To open an account on a different iTunes country you must have a valid credit card issued from a bank in that country. You must have a billing address in that country, as well.
    There are reasons why some apps are not available in all iTunes stores.

  • HT201364 MacBook Air 13" running 10.7.5 When I click to download Mavericks in the App Store, nothing happens.

    No new files showing up in Downloads folder.  No nothing.  :-(
    Internet connection is fine.  Signed in with proper credentials, no problem.
    No messages in the console.
    What could be wrong? 

    There may be no progress bar apparent for Mavericks in the App Store. It may be a bug associated with this particular download.
    To determine if it is actually downloading use Launchpad. You should see a fairly obvious new icon with an associated progress bar. Make sure you check every Launchpad page by swiping left / right.
    If it's paused, click the icon to restart it.
    Once it completes the icon will appear in Applications and Launchpad, it's just easier to find in Launchpad.
    When it's finished downloading it looks like this:
    If it really is not downloading read Mac App Store: How to resume interrupted downloads
    Open the Mac App Store.
    From the Store menu, choose Sign In.
    Enter your Apple ID and password.
    Click Purchases to get to your Purchases Page.
    Click the Resume button next to the app name.

  • Issue with Apps adapter for Create_Cust_Account API

    Hi ,
    I need to invoke this package from apps adapter in BPEL(10.1.3.5).
    Create Customer: HZ_CUST_ACCOUNT_V2PUB. create_cust_account. This is a Over loaded procedure. Look for the Procedure with these Parameters.

    But I’m getting the following error,
    An error occurred while running Jpublisher.missing method
    · I’ve tried with Database adapter. But in the runtime I’m not able to pass oracle apps initialization parameter in spite of using transaction and idempotent property in partnerlink.
    · Then I’ve tried to invoke fnd_global.apps_initialize first then call the package from database adapter, but it fails again, apparently its not able to execute both DBadapter in same database session although they are in same BPEL transaction.
    When I’m passing the initialization parameters in adapter created wrapper procedure then its working fine and customer got created.
    Please let me know where I’m going wrong or issue with apps adapter.
    It’s urgent …
    Thanks in Advance,
    Shreekanta

    Thanks for the reply.
    I'm able to execute the BPEL flows using DB adapter in same session and customer got created.
    But I'm wondering why I cant invoke the API using Apps adapter though its standard one.
    wsdl file is not getting generated as the adapter wizard not get completed.
    Do u have any idea why its giving ' error occurred while running Jpublisher.missing method' error?should I conclude that apps adapter does not support overloaded procedure.

    Did you check to see if your credit card has expired or has been frozen? My dad bought some hardware from Canada and it froze his card because it was an out of the country purchase. He called the bank and they turned it back on.
