Something strange happen with my app store account

Hello everyone,
At home we have two computers, mine is a MBP Retina and my wife has an iMac. Yesterday she got an uppdate advise and when she went to uppdate the application "The Unarchiver" app store said that she has to connect with my accout in order to uppdate the app. I tested deleting the app from the iMac and ran app store updates again and it found an uppdate for the same application and that is strange since I deleted the application, App Store should show "download" not "update". I tested with other apps and I didin't have any problem in downloadning nor updating with my wife account.
All this in my wife computer (iMac)
I took a look anyway to my computer (MBP) and app store doesn't have any update pending for me and I have "The Unarchiver" installed.
Is someone else with similar problem?
Thanks for any comment or help since my wife is driving me crazy, everyday asking what is the problem.

If the update on your wife's iMac asks for your Apple ID to update the app, that means that this app is your content bought with your Apple ID and you have shared it with your wife and authorized her Mac to use your content at some point in the past. Even on her Mac, your content is your content and requires your ID and password to be updated.
If it was saying update instead of install after you deleted the app, then there is likely a backup of your wifes Mac that has the old version of the app. The Mac App Store (MAS) can see its apps on attached/mounted drives and partitions.
Check the version number of the app on your Mac, maybe you already have the latest version.

Put a credit card in the payment methods. The credit balance will be used first and the remainder charged to the card.

What's happening with the App Store?

One minute it shows 9 updates, then when I go to see what the updates are they disappear only to re-appear a few hours later doing the same thing.
It's happening on my iPhone and iPad.
"Apps near me" is hit and miss on my iPad.
Leaving reviews is hit and miss on my iPhone and iPad.
Regular "cannot connect to App Store or iTunes" messages on my iPhone and iPad.

I don't have n answer, but I've seen this problem on all 4 of my iDevices on IOS 7. And sometimes I see no update badge on the app, but if I go into it and check updates I have some waiting.
Honestly don't know if this is a bug in IOS or some carryover from last week when the servers were under extreme load. It's annoying though.

Something strange happen with Maps

Hello Everybody ,
When I was in Saudi Arabia, the maps as usual we know its become so bad and when I check china map I didn't find any of metro lines and stations, all gone as we know.
the strange happen , when I reach china and I connect to China Unicom , the maps has been changed to new ones , includes all places and metro lines and station , both English and Chinese language, and no 3D.
its not same as google but it called AutoNavi. so I was happy with apple and I though apple has updated their maps.
but when I go back to Saudi Arabia , I was surprised that maps back as before , and when I look to china map , again all disappear metro , etc . also its using again tomtom maps !!
Does this happen with anyone ? or someone knows about it ?

Something Strange happen with my FreeHand - see if you know why?

Hi All,
Not sure if anyone here have been experiencing what I am about to show.
The font MyriadPro suddenly become like this... see attachment.
Why?
Jack

Hi Maeric,
No worries, my problem cannot be solve if I keep it to myself and everyone else do the same. We have to come out of our shell and be counted so we will know how many of us are out there in the same boat. When you spend so many years mastering a software like FreeHand and knowing how productive and efficient it has been, it is heart breaking to know we can't do much as individual to save it from the Giant palm of Adobe to thumb it down.
This latest set back fortunately is not isolated to only FreeHand but instead it is got something to do with Open Fonts.
For the time being I will just use Postscript fonts.
I am still hanging on to FreeHand for as long as it can still run and hopefully someone come out with a brilliant idea to revive it.
I am not give up yet.
I will always believe in FreeHand and will always love FreeHand
Thank you
Jack Png

Something strange happening with my fonts

Hi there,
Please see the link to this pdf.
http://mssociety.ca/bc/pdf/2012_Footnotes_1_print.pdf
The PDF is supposed to have all the fonts embedded, but page 1 is showing up wonky - sometimes. Some of the fonts on page 1 are incorrect. They should all be Futura. The rest of the pages seem to be fine - and they use all the same fonts. Not sure why this would only affect page 1 if the fonts weren't embedding properly.
But sometimes when you refresh or reload the page, it loads correctly and they are Futura. I don't get it. It happened sporadically on my other co-workers computer as well.
And if you save the pdf to your desktop, and then open it, it's fine.
I appreciate any help in advance.

Thank you!

Thanks for the posts everyone!
A new development. Part of the problem is that the fonts are not displaying on the first page – but what make the document really unusable – is that the “ff” is missing from “Dollars making a difference” in the table of contents. Since “ff” is a ligature in the pdf I wondered if that was part of the problem.
I re-exported the pdf in this version – but replaced the “ff” ligature with just two fs instead. http://mssociety.ca/bc/pdf/Walk_Footnotes_1_2012_web_NVI.pdf
This is a web-res one but I had the problem with press-ready and web-res files.
This one appears to be fine now. Can you tell me if it loads correctly on your machine? Maybe a problem with ligatures then….Which is a pain if I have to take them all out of my pdfs.
This only appears to be a problem when viewing the PDF in a web browser. If you save it your computer and open it up it seems fine.
Bill@VT – I’m not sure why Times New Roman didn’t embed in the first pdf…Strange. But the font that is used all over that first page – which is not displaying correctly is actually Futura.
The PDFs were exported from InDesign CS5….and I have Acrobat Reader X (10.1.2) and Acrobat Pro 9.5.0
daniel27lt – the image on the front page is 1.8 MB jpg. I exported both Press Ready PDFs and Web Res PDF from InDesign and they both have this problem when viewed in the Web Browser. I don’t think converting all my images to GIFs is going to be a good solution for me and I do believe the problem is in the fonts.

Can i create an apple account with an app store card, or do i Need an itunes card?

You need an iTunes card.
You can setup an account without a credit card if that helps.

I found this in the iTunes help menu.
Redeem an iTunes allowance, gift certificate, or Gift Card
If you received an iTunes Store allowance, gift certificate, iTunes Gift Card, or promotional code, you can use it to buy songs, videos, or audiobooks from the iTunes Store.
You need to set up an Apple ID for use with the iTunes Store before you can redeem anything in the iTunes Store. You don’t need to enter credit card information to redeem only the amount of a gift certificate or card.
Before redeeming anything, make sure you are signed into the iTunes Store (choose Store > Sign In, or select Sign In from the navigation bar at the top of the iTunes Store window):
I don't see any mention of App Store cards.

I have this problem for one year I think and no one can’t solve that,I made 6 screen shots and I will uploading in a few seconds all of them and please just check them !
My problem is: I bought an application last year and after some time I had lost the app from my iTunes store.
Now,what I want to do is: I want to get that app again,but I could not find anywhere in the iTunes store,websites ,nobody could not help me with that
The app has been deleted from everywhere !

If the app is no longer in the store then you won't be able to redownload it. You don't have a copy of it in your computer's iTunes library or on your backup of your downloads/library so that you can sync it back to your phone ?

I erase my mac book pro to factory setting and cannot re-install the software. I received a message saying my Apple ID has not yet used with the App store. Please review your account information. Could anyone help please. I need to re-install my os.

Use Internet Recovery. You shouldn't need an AppleID. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4718
Internet Recovery will install the OS that shipped with the Mac. You can then upgrade to Mavericks if that was not it.
Do you have an App Store account? Did you ever use it to install the OS?

It looks like the app is not currently in the App Store, I can't find it in the UK nor US stores.
If you had previously downloaded it then do you have a copy on your computer's iTunes so that you can sync it to your iPad ?

Hi Tahan007,
Check these threads out:

Problem with app store account

Awhile ago I was having problems logging into my app store account I couldn't log in. I requested my password be sent to me, but I never recieved the email so I went to make a new account. What I did was essentially make the exact same account I had previously, same email and password. But now when I go to update apps, it tells me my password is incorrect for any app that I downloaded before I changed my account. Any apps I've downloaded after this problem occurred update fine. Is there any way I can somehow transfer these other apps to my 'new' account so I'm able to update, or find a new way to update them? I tried updating them through my computer, but it says there are no updates, and I'd have to switch to my 'old' account to update the apps I had downloaded.

AFAIK you cannot Merge Accounts...

Two machines one app store account?!

can anyone help the newbie here?
i have an account with itunes and an account with the app store both under different names/logins.
i have a mac pro a macbookpro and an iphone.
do i need to log on to the APP STORE or to iTunes using the Mac Book Pro (which I use to sync to my iPhone) or can i pay for and download any apps from either machine when downloading form APP STORE?
thanks for any clarification on all of this.
newbie...

the first is that i just downloaded an app to my MBP from the App Store using my account. how do i now use this app on my mac pro?
Look in your Applications folder.
Which app did you download?
also, i see that my App Store Login is the same as my Mac Forum Login and I am curious to know if this is by definition or if i basically made this happen myself (for instance my iTunes name and login is different).
This is your choice. You can have more than one Apple ID.
Be aware, the apps you download from the Mac App Store cannot be run on an iOS device (apps downloaded from iTunes) nor vice versa.
