HT1349 Redeem Mountain Lion App Store update code

I sent my Mountain Lion App Store update code to the wrong e-mail address and can't recover it, but registered the serial number to my newly purchased MacBook Pro. Can I have my code resent to an e-mail I actually use to redeem it and download the new OS?

App Store updates will not load.

App Store updates will not load. It shows that I have 4 updates but all I get is a blank white screen. I have also tried closing the app and restarting my ipad and it still will not work.

Many people are having this problem for the last couple of days. According to Fly150 in another discussion, this will work.
If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
1. Go to App Store
2. Select Purchased
3. Select All
4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
5. Select update on the Apps
This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store.

App store updates are not showing

App store updates are not showing since yesterday

Agreed. Since installing iOS 7 I seem to have to open the App Store before available updates show. I currently have background app refreshes switched "on" but no apps actually selected from the list.

App Store updates will not show up on screen

I currently have updates available, but when I go to the App Store update, nothing shows up on the screen. Just the update indicator on the App Store icon showing the number 5.

Try this workaround
App Store>Purchased>Select "All"
Note: Look out for apps that have the word "Update"

App store update does not clear after update applied

I just got my iphone not too long ago. I updated yesterday via iTunes the applications on my iphone. the app store still shows one of the apps, numbers as needing updating but the application is already updated. How do I clear this spurious flag that should not be there?

However this does point to a bug in the app store update feature. There should be some way to force a check of applications that updated but are still showing as needed in the app store.

App Store update is not working. Just see a white screen

Does anyone know why my iPad App Store update has stopped working?

Read this on iLounge posted by ahMEmon
Go into Settings > General > International > Language and choose British English, then hit the Done button. The screen will go black with a comment about Language Settings. Be Patient, especially if you have a lot of apps. Let it run it's course and Then open the App Store again. Voila! Upgrade list is back. And it stuck when i changed back to plain English. He doesn't know why. I don't either. But I am now a happy camper. Worked on my 3rd gen iPad and iPad Mini.
Hope it works for you!

Can't install firmware - OSX Mavericks App Store Update...

App Store locked up so I had to force quit and now I can't install firmware updates.
Below is the install.log data -- can anyone assist?
I'm not sure if I have to clear out and delete a temporary download file
to get this to work again?
Thanks!

Please disregard, I rebooted and then App Store was able to fix itself and finish the update. Thanks!

App Store update tab not loading!!

When opening the App Store to update the apps, the update tab doesn't load, the others do, not on my iPad or on my iPhone. What should I do?

I believe the store is overloaded, and will clear itself when people calm down loding OSX Lion.
Try a different time of day, don't forget usa is in the afternoon evening and they will be hammering Lion downloads about now after a hard day at work...

Delete update from App store update notification window

I have a Mplayer X software update notification that I can't get rid of. When I click the update button a dialog ballon pops up that says: You have updates available for other accounts. Sign in to [email protected] to update applications for that account. I have no idea what that means and I don't believe I ever had a Mac.com account. I have since then updated MPlayer X by other means yet this notification persists. It says the release date was May 02, 2012 just to give you an idea of how long this has been annoying me.
The consensus seems to be you just have to put up with the annoyance but I think my particular issue differs from the others I've seen posted here.

You installed a hacked application, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different application, downloaded from another account. You need to identify and remove the hacked application.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it:
kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
In the Finder, press the key combination command-F to open a search window, or select
File ▹ Find
from the menu bar. In the search window, select
Search: This Mac
from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu initially showing Kind. From that menu, select Other...
A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select Raw Query and click OK or press return.
Now there will be a text box to the right of popup menu. Click in that box and paste (command-V).
The search window will show all the App Store products you've installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any applications were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you know of, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
If any of the items listed in the search window are not listed among your purchases in the App Store, move them to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.

I can't dismiss app store update notifications

I have a software update that I don't want to install. It's been sitting patiently in my updates list for months, and until Mavericks came along, when the alert appeared in the top right hand corner of my screen I could dismiss it. Now the options I have are Install or Later. The options for Later are 'in 1 hour' 'tonight' 'remind me tomorrow'. I don't want to have this permanently on my screen and I don't want to install the update. I also don't want to have to dismiss it every day.
I don't want to turn off all update alerts, or the automatic downloads, because I do want to be told about every other update to every other piece of software on my computer. I have googled this, and can't find a solution. What are my options?
As explanation, the update I DON'T want to install is an Epson printer driver update. The reason for this is that I have read rumours on the internet that Epson has a habit of engineering it's software so that it won't recognise the cartridges of generic inks, so that you have to pay the premium for Epson own brand ink. As I paid a fortune for my Epson printer I would be very annoyed if this happened. If anyone can reassure me 100% that this is a false alarm, I will happily upgrade the driver. In the absence of this I would much prefer to just dismiss the alert in the corner of my desktop about the upgrade.
I'd be very grateful for help on this irritating new development.
Thanks

I would also like to add my vote to the removal of this unbelivable and insulting incompetent practice.
It reminds me of the joke programs people use to write where the close button followed the mouse pointer making it impossible to click on. It is the same behaviour we expect from adult sites and fake mailware browser popups. Its obviously also a consious desicion Apple have made not to allow peopel to not install crap on there system. With the options being .... Install or install Later... Are you serious ??
In my house we have a bandwidth cap with out providers plan. We exceeded it last month with all the 5GB of mavrics updates and the 3 iphone users all automatically updating with out us asking them to. That cost us money and we lost our internet access because it took the provider 24h to increase our allowance. This was all thanks to apples virus like software downloading updates we didnt not ask it to or want.
I used to be a big apple fan. However increasingly they are forcing me off their products. with moves like this ... the recent OSX server releases have been rushed junk. Their practices of suddely removing apps for exampel any thing to do with bit coin from the app store resulted in me having to buy a samsung device. There are also other concerns as a US company who installs software on your machine with out telling if you are really safe from the ever prying eyes of the US intelligent services. Apparantly if not a US citizen you are free game.. This makes it impossible for people serious about protectign personal privarcy to use non opensource US software provided by large us coperates

App Store update badge not showing

I'm using iOS 6, and I haven't had any issues with this before. Recently, the little red badges notifying me there's an update have not been appearing. I haven't changed anything, and there's no option for it under the Notification settings.

I noticed that myself....I have no clue why that is occurring.
I chcek them in the App store periodically.

How do I remove the app store update notification?

I have update notifcations appearing on my App Store icon, and also (very annoyingly) constantly popping up as notifications on screen all day long (I keep clicking them away every time). I've tried to update the apps (no pirates) and the App Store tells me to sign in to do this. I sign in, then it says I need to sign in using the details I used to purchases the apps. But the apps came with the purchase of my MacBook (iPhotos, iMovies and Pages), not via an Apple ID. Can anyone tell me how I update these, or get rid of the pop-up notification?

App Store Update Notifications Help

Hello all.
First time poster and first time apple product owner. I just bought an iPad (3rd Gen) last week. I'm hooked and absolutely love it. I am having an issue with two apps in regards to their update notifications in the app store. The twitter app and hbogo app currently show that an update is available. When I click update or update all, I am prompted to enter my password and after doing so i receive the Could Not Connect to iTunes Store message. This is only happening for these two apps. Moments ago I had 6 update notifications and when hitting update all the four other apps updated and two notifications remain for twitter and hbogo. I checked these forums already and was unable to find anything on the issue. Any insight into this problem would be appreciated. My thanks in advance.
Sincerely,
Satisfied Apple User

Rebooting one's iPad can often cure odd issues. To reboot, press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time for at least 10 seconds (ignore the red slider to shut down) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad will restart. You will not lose any data or settings. See if you can update both apps after your iPad comes back up.
If that does not help, the next suggestion would be to delete the two apps, then redownload them. Once you've purchased or downloaded an app, it stays in your Apps Library and can be redownloaded at anytime in the future. To delete an App, hold your finger on any app until all apps start to jiggle. You'll see an X on the upper right hand side of the apps you can delete (native apps can never be deleted) and all you do is touch the X and you'll be asked if you are sure, say yes, and the app will be deleted. Then go to your purchased tab in iTunes and redownload the apps.
