The new Mac App Store and its relation to the "traditional" Apple SW Packag

Could someone please explain how is the relation between the "old" Mac SW (iLife packages for instance) and the new MacApp (iLife packages), are the SW packages identical but just running in another environment?
What about future SW updates?? Will the old SW packages fade out and be taken over by the MacApp SW??
Yours gsf1

Well, one is downloaded, and it can be installed on multiple computers, and is the same price, and is well, nothing about the app itself is different

  • In the new mac app store how do you limit displayed applications only to os x applications.

    In the new mac app store how do you limit displayed applications only to os x applications. I do not have Iphone or ipad so all the phone junk is annoying and one cannot find the relevant software.

    The Mac App Store only has apps for Mac OS X. There are no iOS apps.
    The iOS apps for iPhones, iPods and iPads, are in the iTunes App Store.

  • I have $0.66 in the US Mac App Store and I want to change my country to Brazil. Unfortunately MAS keeps telling me that I want to spend all the money in my account before I can change my country.

    You can't change countries whilst you have a balance. If you can't spend it then you can try contacting iTunes Support and ask them if they can remove the balance from your account so that you can change countries : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

  • How do i install the new mac app store

    I did my software update like the apple website instructed but the mac app store is still not popping up. I also checked my applications under finder and found the same result. Is there a way to get the mac app store on my 2008 macbook or is my model too outdated to support the mac app store? Thank you for all responses!

    If your signature profile is correct, you are on Leopard (10.5) which means you will have to buy Snow Leopard (10.6) - widely available for $29. Make sure your system meets the minimum requirements; if it does and you install it, you can then update to 10.6.6 which is the update that included the app store.

  • New Mac App Store Compatibility?

    Can Flash CS5 AS3 be compiled for the new Mac App Store? It would be nice to use one code base.

    There are going to be steps in the process that I don't know about, but the stripping out PowerPC part I know, although I gather there is an easier way that the one I'll now say. But at least it will get you going.
    Look at this:

    Open the DownSizer Automator app and point it towards your projector. You get another projector that is 9MB smaller. The copy has the minor drawback of not working, but if you go into the package’s resources, and copy the "en.lproj" from the universal projector into the same place in the Intel one, the projector will then work again.

  • I currently have the Mac OS X v10.5.8 and want to get the new operating system but I don't know how to do it. I don't have the Mac App Store and can't get it because of my version. What do I do?

    I currently have the Mac OS X v10.5.8 and want to get the new operating system but I don't know how to do it. I don't have the Mac App Store and can't get it because of my version. What do I do?

    The Early 2006 model 1,1 Core Duo can only run a maximum of 10.6 Snow Leopard. The models Late 2006 Core 2 Duos 2,1 through Early 2008 4,1 can only run a maximum of 10.7 Lion. The Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibody through the Mid 2010 White Unibody model 7,1 can run 10.8 Mountain Lion.
    To see which model you have go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up check the Model Identifier and post it back here.
    The Snow Leopard 10.6 DVD should still be available from Apple for $20. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775 to purchase it. It may still be in the Legacy Products list.
    If they no longer have any in stock you will have to buy it from eBay or Apple resellers that still have stock. But you will have to pay a premium since the DVDs are no longer being made. Snow Leopard DVDs are already up to $100 on Amazon.
    http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=10.6+snow+leopard&_sacat=0&_odkw=mac+os+10.6 &_osacat=0
    Once you are at 10.6.8 Lion is still available from Apple. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775. to purchase it. Then within 3 days you will get an email with a code which you can use to download Lion from the App Store.  The price is still $29. You must have at least a model 2,1 MacBook.
    Lion will require at least 2gb of RAM but really needs 4gb to run smoothly.
    As for third party programs see this list for compatibility with 10.7 http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
    Also Lion doesn't run any Power PC programs. To see if you have any Power PC programs go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up select Applications under Software. Then look under Kind to see if any of your applications are listed as Power PC. Universal and Intel will run under Lion.
    Before Mac switched to Intel processors in 2006 they used Power PC processors from 1994 to 2005. Power PC 601 through 604, G3, G4 and G5. Applications written for the Power PC processors need the application called Rosetta to run on Intel processors. This was part of the Operating System in 10.4 and 10.5 but was an optional install in 10.6. With 10.7 Lion Apple dropped all support for Power PC applications.

  • My Mid-2011 Macbook Air becomes extremely hot when installing apps from the Mac App Store and when deleting apps

    My Mid-2011 Macbook Air 13-inch (OSX 10.8.1 Mountain Lion) becomes hot to the touch when trying to delete large documents, watching videos after waking it from sleep-mode and when installing applications from the Mac App Store. This has also been happening with OSX Lion before I upgraded it to Mountain Lion.

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico my first language is Spanish. I do not speak English, however I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
    What needed to be done the day that you set up the new Mac was go into the Mac App Store (MAS), sign into your iTunes/MAS Apple ID, go to the Purchases pane and Accept the iLife apps that would have been there in a special section. That would have sent you Mac's unique identifier code to Apple's servers and verified that this Mac was eligible for the bundled iLife suite and then registered these apps into your MAS account.
    You might try going to  ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/adoption.plist, delete the adption plist, restart the Mac and then go to the Purchaes pane and see if you can Accept the apps into your account.

    Hi Kristy,
    Update to 10.6.8 to use the app store.
    Your MBP's hardware requirements should be fine for iLife 11:

  • Is there a way to use Automator or Applescript to launch the Mac App Store and download updates automatically?

    As the subject indicates, I'm wondering if anyone knows a way to use AppleScript or Automator to launch the Mac App Store and download any available updates on a set schedule.

    I would advise against this. Updates sometimes reduce functionality or break programs.  I would never get an update with working software unless there is a specific problem you are trying to solve.
    I have read many desperate posts from people trying to go back to earlier versions for various reasons. This is easy to do with disk-based software,  but with downloaded software, going backward can be more difficult.

    Free trials are not available through the Mac App Store.
