Updating iWork not purchased in Mac Store?

Greetings. I have the latest versions of iWork (Pages 4.0.5, Numbers 2.0.5, Keynote 5.0.5) but I did not purchase them via the Mac Store, and the store doesn't recognize that I have these apps installed on my Mac. Does anyone know if future updates will by routed through the Mac Store? Hopefully, I won't have to re-purchase these apps for this convenience. Thanks!

It's very likely that Apple will support iWork that was not purchased through the MAS until the next iWork upgrade. Since iWork is now at 9.x, expect that iWork 10 will only be available on the MAS.

IWorks not purchased in app store, now I have to pay again for the apps??

Long ago I purchased iWork together with my laptop (macbook pro). Now, I get a message in Pages, Numbers and Keynote that there is a new version available. So I wanted to download it, but the app store makes me pay for them! The full price! Why? The app store does recognise that I have the iWorks apps, but says I didn't purchase them in the app store, so I have to pay for them again! This is really stupid, does anyone know how this is possible? And what I can do to update without having to pay a lot of money to buy all the three apps again?

There are several reasons why the updates don't show as free for those who already have iWork '09 installed.
1. You must have iWork '09 apps installed & they must be updated to the x.3 version. You can also download the standalone updater from this page.
2. If you are not using English as the primary language for your Mac, change to English & run Software Update. You can then switch back to your preferred language.
3. Go to Mac App Store (MAS) > Click on Store > Check for Unfinished Downloads. You will need to individually click into each application > Click update > enter in your Apple ID & password and then it will start updating.
4. Open App Store on your Mac & look at the buttons under Keynote, Pages & Numbers. If it does not say “Update” click Account under Quick Links, enter your password & click “View Account.” Next, click the “Reset” button to the right of “Reset all warnings for buying and downloading” at the bottom of this page, & click Done. Check your updates tab & iWork & iLife updates should now appear.
These are the ones I've seen work for others.

Mountain Lion purchased from Mac store will not download. 'Downloading' simply stays greyed out for hours. Nothing I do changes it. I am running OS 10.6.8 on a 2010 Mac Mini. What do I do now?

If you are looking at the front page of the App Store and you are seeing the "downloading" message on the right under Quick Links.
Try this... Go into the "Purchases" section in the top bar of the App Store find ML in the list you are presented with. Does it say Resume? If so click the button and it will change to Pause. You may have paused it previously and forgot.
If not then do as Csound1 suggested and simply wait for it to finish

HT5625 can not purchase from apps store. message states - Apple ID is disabled.

Can not purchase from Apps Store. Continue to get message stating that Apple ID is disabled after I select install. I have change my Itune account pass word and updated all information.

After resetting your password you might then need to log out of your account on your iPod by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it
If that doesn't fix it then you might need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

I want to import songs frm my Ipod to my itunes library. Songs were ripped from CDs to the ipod not purchased from itunes store...how can this be done?

You would have to let itunes rip the songs from the cd's, or you would have to copy the music from the computer which ripped cd's.
iTunes does not support transferring music from the ipod unless it was purchased from the store.

TS2446 Please help me,I can not purchase from apple store becuse it is ask me the secirty question in my apple ID but I forget my secrity question

Hello,
Please help me,I can not purchase from apple store becuse it is ask me about the secirty question in my apple ID but I forget my secrity question.
Thanks,

If you can't remember them then go to Express Lane and select 'iTunes' from the list of 'products' in the middle of the screen.
Then select 'iTunes Store', and on the next screen select 'Account Management'
Next choose 'iTunes Store Account Security' and fill in that you'd like your security questions/answers reset.
You should get an email reply within about 24 to 48 hours (and check your Spam folder as well as your Inbox). A month or two ago Apple had temporarily suspended the reseting of security question/answers whilst account security processes were improved, but that may now have finished.

My iphone4s can not update the apps while it could download the apps. It shows that the update can not access to itune store.

My iphone4s can not update the apps while it could download the apps. It shows that the update can not access to itune store. I don't know how to deal with it...

Many people (including me) are having the same problem at present. There are other threads in the message board with the same complaint.
There is nothing you can do about it except wait for Apple to fix the problem.

Mac id password is not recognised at mac store

I am unable to download update updates in the Mac Store. I am asked for my ID and password. I enter them as I have to enter this discussion but the login box keeps reapperaing saying the password id not correct. Advice please.

Visit these three places by clicking on Finder, then go at the top. Hold down the option key and you will see Library. Click on Library and locate to appropriate folders listed under here. This will reset the appstore.
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/Cache.db. Move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
~/Library/Preferences. Move the com.apple.appstore.plist and com.apple.storeagent.plist files to the Trash.
~/Library/Cookies. Move the com.apple.appstore.plist and Cookies.plist files to the Trash.
After you have done this, restart your mac and try to access the store again. I hope this helps!

My iP5 will not play any track not purchased from itunes Store, red circle with red square inside appears and skips the track, any ideas?

my iP5 will only play songs purchased formmthe itunes store.

anybody know why Itunes / iP5 will no longer play all tracks, has worked for years, only stopped with the latest itunes update.

Hey Kelsieee,
First, I would try to resolve the issue with the ! in a circle that you're seeing in iTunes. There's some steps in the following article that go over what that ! usually means and how to fix it:

Java 7 update 17 not working on Mac os x 10.7.5

Hi,
I am trying to get my Java working on my mac os x 10.7.5, but everything is saying that the plug-in is inactive, or java applets just continuously load. My java is enabled and up to date, as is my safari. I have read about all this stuff saying apple disabled java then renabled it without telling anyone. What exactly is going on and how can i get java to work?!?! I have tried fiddling with its settings, uninstalling, reinstalling, downloading chrome, etc etc and nothing seems to have any affect. Is there a way of reverting to some old software in either safari, java, or something to make this work as it used to until it decided to not one magical day?
Thanks in advance,
Jen

Hi Jen,
I am having the same issue, from what i am reading and understanding is apple and there in genius ideas decided to block Java because its apparently a security risk - a joke i know!
see i had my course materail for tafe all working then i decided to do the update that kept popping up since then it doesnt work, i installed java 7 update 17 on my old mac book pro and it works perfectly the only thing that is different between those 2 is safari my imac is running 6.0.3 and my macbook is still on the one before that..
i am still currently working on a way to enable this again unless apple relise that this was a completly stupid idea and come to there sens before i come up with away then ill keep you updated when i get it working
so for those who are reading this and havent updated yet my advise if you need java for online games or course materail or anything really DONT UPDATE
thanks
mel

Can i transfer the entire contents of one ipod to another. Songs were imported from CD not purchased at itunes store

Can I transfer the contents of one pod to another. The songs were imported from CD's; they were not purchased at the itunes store. Basically I am asking if I can transfer to a new ipod.

Thanks. Not all the songs on my old ipod are on my computer at home. But I'll transfer what I can from my home computer; and then bring the new ipod into work and transfer the rest of the music. So simple I should have thought of it!

Updates will not install using App Store on 10.7.5

Updates will not install using the App Store. I am using a MacBook Pro on 10.7.5. When I click the button labeled "update" in App Store, the little wheel in the upper left-hand corner continues to spin forever (I waited 12 hours one time) but nothing happens. No updates will install. My Macbook Pro has always operated without issues since I bought it new in 2009, and I have a reliable, fast internet connection.

Let's try a test here.
Make a new User Account, and try to update from there.
