The App Store Search feature appears to be working again.... I hope!

I had the same issue that many users were reporting earlier today about not being able to use the search feature in the App Store. I have been experimenting for the last 15 minutes or so and it is working for me now.
Keep trying ... It may now be coming back for all soon.

It wasn't working for me earlier and I was experiencing the same weird behavior that everyone else seemed to be experiencing. I was getting the "Can't connect to iTunes Store" message when trying to do a search. Everything else worked, just not the search feature,
Anyway, all seems to be OK now. No bizarre workarounds needed.

  • The App Store search has stopped working since I updated to 8.2 on iPad

    Hi
    since I updated my software to 8.2 on my iPad the App Store search has stopped working but other features work on the App Store only the search option is not responding and says " the App Store is temporary unavailable please try again later "
    I have turned my iPad off and on couple of times but with the same result each time.
    the 8.2 update is for the new Apple watch and health app.
    can any one help?

    Based on the numerous posts regarding iTunes and the App Store, there appears to be an issue at Apple's end. Although Apple has not provided any indication on the cloud status page.
    Do not change your settings.

    Whenever I updated or downloaded a new app from the App Store, a message appears saying:
    "Account Not In This Store
    Your account is not valid for use in the U.S. store. You must switch to the Swedish. store before purchasing."
    I made some research online and asked a few of my friends with the same problem. All they did was sign out of iTunes from settings>iTunes & App Stores or from the App Store itself and signed back in. It worked for many of them but not with my iPhone 4s. It really does get on my nerves to always sign out and back in to the App Store as it sometimes works and allows me to update and download or most of the time it doesnt.
    When viewing my Apple ID account on my iPhone (after entering the password) it either views my account or says:
    "This Apple ID is only valid for purchases in the U.S. iTunes Store. You will be switched to that Store. Try your purchase again."
    So I press on OK then either switches me to the App Store app of its choice, or says "Cannot connect to iTunes Store".
    I tried restoring iOS6 hoping it was a bad installation, but i still have the same problem.
    Can anyone help me please?

    Are you sure your AppleID is NOT tied to the US store? If you are trying to buy an app from the Swedish store you will be unable to do that. Some apps are only available on certain stores. That is why you get the "Cannot connect to the iTunes store" message when trying to buy that app. Your updates are being done from the US store ; thats why you can update sometimes and sometimes not.
    If you keep encountering problems contact iTunes support. They will help you sort it out.

  • I can't sync my iPhone 6 The App Store is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later.

    Hello I just purchased an iPhone 6 Plus today. I am unable to sync to my iTunes because it requires iTunes 11.4 or later. I am running 11.1.3. When I try to update this through the App Store I receive an error "The App Store is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later."
    This has been going on for several hours. I can see "Featured", "Top Charts", "Categories", "Purchases" but am unable to connect to the "Updates" section within App Store.
    I am frustrated. It is just the update function of the store that does not connect.
    And yes,my ID and Password are correct.
    Why?

    Download the app directly and install.
    iTunes 11.4

    I have a laptop (2010) with Lion OS and tried to install Mavericks and part way through the installation it quit and reverted back to Lion and the app store doesn't let me download Mavericks again. How can I resolve this?

  • I bought Aperture from the App store & now it wants to charge me again.

    I bought Aperture from the App store 2 years ago. I have now bought a Macbook pro but when I go back to the App store it wants to charge me £53 again. According to the rules I'm supposed to be able to use it on more than one machine. Any advice?

    From the Mac App Store, click on the Purchases tab at the top, sign into the account that you used to purchase Aperture, then it should show up as available to download.

  • I update the software and the app store was eliminated, how I can download again???

    I update the software and the app store was eliminated , how I can download again ??  thank you

    You cannot delete it or download it.
    It is likely on another page, in a folder or you have restrictions set.

  • TS1702 I purchased an app but it does not appear as an icon the only way to start my game is to go to the App Store and it appears and I have to click on open

    I purchased an app and it does not appear as an icon on my IPad The only way to play the game is to go to the App Store and click on open( which is always opened)

    Are your home screens completely full? Is the app buried in a folder? Can you access it from the Spotlight Search feature.
    Try quitting the app completely, reboot the iPad and then see if the icon shows up.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
    Reboot 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Just uploaded mountain lion and now it won't let me buy Logic Pro X in the App store. Error 100 over and over again.

    I was trying to get logic pro X. It's not letting me purchase it after updating.

    Try deleting the cache associated with the App Store.
    Quit the App Store if it's open.
    Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following:
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/Cache.db
    Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Relaunch the App Store and try purchasing Logic Pro X.

  • The app store search on my iPad does not respond. Has anyone had this problem?

    Go to the iTunes app on your Mac. You can search for apps there and they are all iOS apps.

  • I am unable to update Pages through the App store. It appears someone else used my machine to update Pages previously.For the update,  I am asked to login to another account. I want to remove it and download the latest version. Can I do this?

    I was notified that Pages and one other application have updates. When I tried to login, the Apps page asks me to login to an account I am not familiar with. I imagine that this machine was used by someone else to update or download 2 apps. I would like to delete them and download the latest apps using my account. Can I do this?

    You can log in to your own account at any time and access the appliactions you have paid for, just fill in your own Apple ID.
