Purchased Pages from Mac app Store

I just downloaded and installed Pages 4.0.5 from the Mac App Store. Do I need to install the iWork 9.0.5 Update as well? It does not come up in Software Update.

Hi,
No, you don't need to do that. The updates will be come available under Updates in the menu at the top of the Mac App Store window.

  • I can't download Pages from Mac App Store

    I have been having some trouble in dowloading Page from Mac App Store.
    I had dowloaded and used before, but recently I reinstalled the Mac OS.
    When the download reachs amost 10MB, it restarts a few times and gives me the message: "Pages failed to download. Use the Purchases page to try again."
    I tried both two following methods:
    1 - open $TMPDIR/../C* and deleted com.apple.appstore
    2 - Quit App Store.
    Open Terminal.
    Execute this: defaults write com.apple.appstore ShowDebugMenu -bool true
    Launch App Store.
    At the Menu bar, there should be a "Debug".
    Click on that and press "Reset Application"
    Restart App Store.
    But none of them worked for me.
    Can anyone help me?
    Cheers.

    Please test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved. Back up all data before making any changes.
    Step 1
    Rebuild the Spotlight index. If you try to search now from the magnifying-glass icon in the top right corner of the display, there will be an indication that indexing is in progress.
    Step 2
    Unlock the Network preference pane, if necessary, by clicking the lock icon in the lower left corner and entering your password. Cllck Advanced, open the DNS tab, and change the server addresses to the following:
    8.8.8.8
    8.8.4.4
    That's Google DNS. Click OK, then Apply.

  • I purchased Pages from the App Store but it wants me to enter a serial number?

    I purchased Pages from the App Store and it installed properly, but now it's asking me for a serial number or use the 30-day trial. I never received a serial number after purhcasing and I don't see anything in my iTunes receipt. Where can I find my serial number?

    This means that at some time you had the iWork ’09 trial installed. You need to delete the trial & then reinstall from the boxed DVD or the Mac App Store. The files to delete are the iWork ’09 folder from the main HD > Applications; the iWork ’09 folder in HD > Library > Application Support & the individual iWork application plist files found in HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences for each user. Yvan Koenig has written an AppleScript that removes the files. You can find it on his box.com account in for_iWork'09 > other_iWork'09 items > uninstall iWork '09.zip.

  • I would like to update Pages from 4.1 to 4.2. I did not purchase it from the App Store but installed it with iWorks. How do I complete the upgrade?

    I would like to update Pages from 4.1 to 4.2. I did not purchase it from the App Store but installed it with iWorks. How do I complete the upgrade?

    The iWork 9.2 updater is for those using Mountain Lion. Why do you want to update to Pages 4.2 if you're still running Lion? There is no benefit & many users have had problems.
    That being said, you must make sure the applications are where the installer initially put them. The updaters are very picky. If the location is not where the updater is programmed to look or if the folder doesn't have the name the updater looks for, it will not work. The applications cannot be renamed or moved. All three applications must be in the iWork '09 folder in Applications. That iWork folder must be named iWork '09. If it doesn't have the '09 Software Update won't find them & the updaters won't work.
    Now, choose Software Update from the Apple menu, from System Preferences or launch the Mac App Store & click Updates. You should get a window similar to this screenshot. Now click the Update button next to iWork 9.2.
    Alternatively, you can download the standalone update here.

  • I downloaded pages from the app store and I can use it on my Mac login but it doesn't show up when my wife logs in to her account? Were using the same computer, just different logins.

    No. You need to buy it for your Apple ID and for the other. You will have problems with updates

    If you go to System Preferences > Network do you see other networks listed on the left panel?  Is the lock in the lower left corner closed?  If not, highlight your network, then close the lock so you block other networks.

    Try searching with Spotlight. Click the magnifying glass icon top right corner of your screen.
    If you can't locate the apps, you can re download without being charged again.

  • Can't update daisy disk from Mac App Store

    Can't update daisy disk from Mac App Store!! What can i do? AppStore wrote You must login in to @@@@mail, but I login to my account!

    You must sign in to the App Store with the Apple ID you used to install the app. If you don't recognize the ID, see below.
    You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
    Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store notice. For example, if the App Store says you need to update "Twitter," the hacked app may be "Angry Birds" or something else entirely. Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you have to carry out a systematic search.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page 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 apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
    At least one of the items listed in the search window is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
    Log out and log back in. Test.

  • Can I add my existing, licensed apps to my list of 'Purchases' on the Mac App Store so I don't have to buy them twice?

    Hello,
    I was wondering if I could add my existing, licensed apps to the list of app 'Purchases' that I have on the Mac App Store.
    The reason for this is that I recently suffered the inevitable hard disk failure and I had to rebuild my MacBook Pro from scratch (with the help of Time Machine and Migration Assistant, etc.). As usual, I hadn't really maintained my MBP for quite a while and things sort of got away from me, in terms of data, apps, preferences, permissions, users (my personal account, my wife's account, my old work account...), etc.
    So I wanted to rebuild my MBP on a clean slate. I like having the ability to quickly download and install just the right apps that I "really" need from MAS safe in the knowledge that:
    they are there (assuming they're still available through MAS) with a full description of what they do and when I bought them, etc.
    they are going to be in the most up-to-date version,
    I'll be able to download and install them cleanly with no corruption from years of multiple user preference changes and permissions, etc.
    that they will be managed and maintained (updated) through the same mechanism,
    so much more.
    The benefits of having apps from MAS are easy to see when compared to going through my downloads folder and emails looking for the latest installers, working out what they're for in the first place, finding the license key in some forgotten e-mail, etc.
    I am aware that I can build a clean machine and then restore just the right apps in their most up-to-date version as I had them on my backups.  The one thing to say about that is that the apps may have been used and abused once too many times and their preferences, etc. may not be in the most desirable form. It's just not as elegant as the MAS solution.
    I realise that not all apps, app versions, or app vendors, are available through MAS. But I still have a fair few apps currently available on MAS that were bought prior to the existence of MAS, prior to them becoming available on MAS, or were bought directly for some other reason (by mistake).
    So I wondered if there was any way I could convert my legitimate licenses from simply a direct purchase to one through MAS and have those apps listed under my 'Purchases' list. It would reduce the amount of work I'd have to do, not only to rebuild my machine but also to maintain it.
    I cannot find any reference or way of having this work the way I would like it to. But I was hoping that some Apple guru would enlighten me.
    I have thought about the possible mechanisms something like this would need to work and I must admit I see some not insurmountable issues (not as much technical as legal or possibly logistical). I realise that MAS is a service in its own right and as such has its own Terms, Conditions and Licensing that may not be compatible with the licenses that I already have. I also realise that when I purchase an app from MAS that I'm paying for the entire service including updates and use on multiple machines that I may own, etc. Obviously I do not want to pay the full purchase cost again for the same app twice, but I am willing to pay a small conversion/upgrade fee to have it managed as part of my 'Purchases' on MAS.  Think of it in the same terms as iTunes works.  I can purchase music, etc. but I can also add my own CD collection and have it managed by iTunes and store it in the cloud should anything go wrong with my local machine, etc.
    So if this is currently not possible, then for the Apple MAS product managers out there, consider this as a suggestion/feedback.  I'd be happy to discuss my thoughts in more detail about not only how to achieve this for now but also for the future when you may add existing applications to MAS that people may have previously bought direct and would like to have managed through MAS going forward. The benefits to the users are hopefully clear, but from Apple's perspective I hope that you can see the advantages too, commercially, etc.
    PS: I apologise for the wordiness of my query and overuse of 'etc.', etc.

    Can I add my existing, licensed apps to my list of 'Purchases' on the Mac App Store so I don't have to buy them twice?
    No. Only apps purchased from the App Store can be re downloaded for free including updates.

  • How do I purchase Keynote from the app store when it only shows "update"

    I bought a Macbook Pro from my office and the Keynote program was purchased by another employee. I want my own copy, however, the App Store shows "Update" rather than "Buy App" so I cannot just buy another copy. Am I missing something? Is there another way to buy  Keynote other than through the App Store (other than physically going to an Apple Store?)

    Your profile shows Mac OS 10.6 Snow Leopard, if you want to remain in 10.6 you will need to install iWorks 09, this is available from Ebay or Amazon at a very reasonable cost.
    To purchase the latest version of Keynote, you need  Yosemite installed:
    Log out of the Mac App Store (store > sign out)
    Log in using your own Apple ID
    If you don't have an Apple ID select create Apple ID from the login pane
    Delete Keynote from the applications folder
    in purchases tab of Mac App Store, purchase Keynote and click

  • Why isn't OS X Mountain Lion not downloading from Mac App Store?

    Hi all,
    I have recently downloaded the OS upgrade to Mountain Lion from the Mac App Store for £13.99, and it is't downloading. Since purchasing I have received the bill from Apple outlining I have purchased the item. But nothing has happened as yet. I have looked under purchases in the Mac App Store and it just shows the progression bar...
    79.3 MB of 4.37 GB - Calculating...
    I have restarted my IMac many times and still nothing!!!
    What can I do?? I have the icon for Mountain Lion in the dock but the only options available I can see are... Pause, or Cancel Download.
    Please help!!!
    I am running Mac OS X  version 10.6.8
    Thanks in advance

    It looks stuck, and at this point, you probably ought to cancel the download and start it over again. (No worries about paying again... once you buy something in the App Store, you own it for as long as it stays in the store and can re-download it all you like.)
    Also, before you consider installing the upgrade, note that there are some things you should do:
    1) Check all your software for compatibility with the new system.
    2) Repair the hard drive with Disk Utility.
    3) Make a full backup of your whole system using Time Machine.
    4) Ideally, make a second full backup of your whole system using something else, like Carbon Copy Cloner. (I consider two backups to be the minimum.)
    5) Wait until you have time to deal with any possible problems that crop up.
    6) Install the upgrade.
    Some people recommend erasing your hard drive and installing the new system "cleanly." That certainly helps ensure that you don't have any problems with the new system, but is often unnecessary. I prefer to save clean installs for when they are actually necessary, but that is only an opinion. You can certainly choose to do a clean install if you prefer.

  • How can I copy installation/setup files of an App downloaded from Mac App Store?

    I just purchased and downloaded Xcode on my Macbook Pro and now want to install the same on my MacBook Air and iMac but I don't want download them again and again. Isin't their anyway by which I can copy the installation/setup files of that App and paste it on another Mac and use my iTunes account credentials to verify the App with Apple servers, so that they know it's legit install. And also keep the copy as backup so that, I can install that App again after I format my computer or use it for future use.
    I live in a third world country and aren't blessed with high speed and unlimited bandwidth connection.

    Issue solved:
    Answer found in Apple FAQ's site: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4482
    The Mac App Store remembers all apps you purchase with your account. Apps you purchase and install from Mac App Store can also be copied to an external hard drive, USB Flash Drive, CD/DVD, or backed up via Time Machine.
    If you save a copy of an app to removable media (such as an external hard drive) or file share, simply drag the app back from its storage location to your Applications folder. When you open the restored app for the first time, you may be required to sign in with the Apple ID account that was used to purchase the app.

  • What is an error (18) from Mac App Store?

    I have tried everything under the sun, can not get MAS to update my iPhoto and iMovie on an Xserve.  Always get an error (18) but no clue what that means.

    If you originally installed iPhoto from an iLife DVD, or if it came preinstalled on a Mac that shipped with installation discs, then you can't update it in the App Store. Depending on what version it is, there may be an updater you can use on the Apple Support website. Otherwise you'll have to purchase iPhoto from the App Store.
