Where are Mac App Store user ratings and reviews?

What happened to all the user ratings and reviews in the Mac App Store? They're all missing. I checked a whole bunch of apps and nothing has any ratings or reviews from anyone. Has Apple gotten rid of user ratings and reviews? I sure hope not because I use those to help decide if I want to buy an app or not!

Yep.   I think they've gone.   But Google the app and another set of reviews (usually from the developers site) can be found.

    There are only App Store/Books/Podcasts and ITune on my Itune store heading, why? This means I cannot order music as a Hong Kong subscriber?

    That's correct.  It seems that music is not yet available in the Hong Kong store.

  • My country is not listed in the Mac app store and iTunes?

    My country is not listed in the Mac app store or iTunes. and yes ive tried putting in false information like 'I live in the USA, NY' but whenever i try buying something it says "Your credit card information does not match your banks records, Please enter a US billing card.. and such. Because of this i have no choice but to use what you call 'pirated' applications. Any help fellow mac users?

    Sorry, but it's Apple's policy...
    "Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location."

  • I Deleted the mac app store because of error 4 and i cant download it with software update

    I Deleted the mac app store because it showed error 4 and I cant download it with software update.

    I guess you have no time-machine or carbon copy cloner backup at hand.. then you will go a manual way.
    Mac AppStore is included in 10.6.6 first and a updated better version ( the latest ) is in 10.6.7, so I focus on the later :
    Use the shareware ( works without paying , nag screen only ) called "pacifist" . Locate the 10.6.7 update package on your harddisk, mount the dmg, go inside and right-click the installer package, it wil offer you top open it with pacifist instead of Apples OS installer.
    Inside pacifist you can see the various sub-packages, one item is the Mac App Store, select it and choose "install to default location" from pacifists menu.
    This way you bypass the OS' logic that it is already up to date and will find AppStore in your Applications folder.
    Note that this scenario is totally unsupported by Apple of course and you do it on your own risk.
    The official way if you have messed up the OS and have removed parts of it, would be to wipe and reload OSX plus its updates to be back..

  • Mac App Store - Different Country Purchases

    I live in Japan but have bank accounts and credit cards in the US and Japan, and for that reason I have two Apple IDs, one for each country. As such *I would want the ability to buy software from the Mac App Store in the US and Japan*, especially since my wife is Japanese and she uses Japanese language software (whereas I prefer English software). Here is what Apple says about the Apple ID being tied to country:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2204
    So it appears that I can switch between the US and Japan Mac App Store simply by my Apple ID back and forth (which unfortunately is troublesome). Even so, I am curious *how the Mac App Store will manage the software* I have purchased and installed, if some was bought from the Japan Mac App Store and other software bought from the US Mac App Store. Will it only manage my Japanese software (e.g., download updates for it) while I have my Japan Apple ID setup in the Mac App Store preferences? And then it will only start managing my English software when I switch to my US Apple ID in the prefs? If so, then I see no benefit to me for the Mac App Store. The big benefit to using the Mac App Store is seamless and convenient software management.
    Please know that I have not yet installed 10.6.6 or used the Mac App Store. I've not done that yet because I view the current One-Click Buy method as being dangerous. However, seeing that I am not alone in feeling such, I am quite certain Apple will address that flaw rather quickly. But I am posting here today so I can find out about purchasing software from different Mac App Stores (based on country) and "software management" prior to committing to the Mac App Store for my future software purchases. If I am able to buy Japanese software through the US Mac App Store, the point of my post here today would be moot. But from what I understand, that won't be allowed.
    I look forward to hearing your thoughts.
    Thanks.

    The Mac App Store account is actually an iTunes account. If you already have an iTunes account I suggest that you visit that account before opening the Mac App Store app and signing in. Go to iTunes and enter the iTunes Store. Make sure that you are logged into your iTunes account. Then view your account. Make sure that the payment method is configured as you want to use this account; either with a bank card, without a bank card, with an iTunes Store gift card(s), or if available, a PayPal account.
    Once you have your iTunes Store account as you want it, quit iTunes. Open the Mac App Store app and sign in using your iTunes Store account ID. Now just a simple verification should be all that you are required to do and it should not activate 1-click purchases. It should not ask you for any bank card information and you should be able to "buy" all of the free apps that you would like, even if you opted out of having a bank card in your iTunes Store account.
    If you do not have an iTunes Store account, I suggest that you go to iTunes and open an account there first and not try to set up your account initially in the Mac App Store. Since you already have an Apple ID for the Apple Discussions all will be much more simple if you use that for your iTunes Store account also.
    As far as managing the apps that you buy, my experience with the MAS is the same as with the iTS, my Mexico Store account recognizes my installed apps from my US account and even shows me when there is an update available and vice versa, but to actually install the update I must sign into the account that I used to originally download and install the account.

  • Mac app store not in notification center

    does anyone has this where the mac app store isn't in the notification center. I have checked and i see others getting notification banners and upadates in the notification center about software updates from the mac app store.
    mine is a mid 2010 macbook pro 15" i downloaded mountain lion a month ago.
    just curious and seeking some help
    Jon

    I thing this is a bug of Mac OS. Normally all apps sending notifications to the notification center should be listed under System Preferences -> Notifications. I wonder how apple forgot to put its own app under the list.
    Do not be confused. Disabling updates is different than getting notifications about the updates.
    I like to get updates for all my apps automatically but sinse I use my Macbook for work, I find it very disturbing to interupt what I do just to click "ok" to the notification because an app was updated. It is enough for me to know that all my apps are up to date.
    I hope to see this fixed soon.

  • Why do I have an update on the Mac App Store for an Angry Birds app when I have not downloaded the app?

    I have a strange issue where the Mac App Store always shows an update available for an Angry Birds app I have never downloaded on my Mac. Everytime I click on it for update, it gives a strange Username for which the update is available.
         This is the username that comes up when I hit "Update"... I noticed this problem exists on my friends iMac too and it is the exact same email ID that shows on the screenshot above.
    Please help.

    Just to make sure, open Mac App Store and click Purchases. Can you pause the download and restart it?

  • Serial Numbers for products purchased in Mac App Store

    How do I find the serial number for my Adobe product that I purchased from the Mac App store? I've reviewed the FAQ, help, and forums, but can't find an answer specific to products purchased from Mac App store. I bought Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 Editor. I want to register it with Adobe but I need the serial number. It is nowhere to be found.
    Thx!

    Hi. Soooo, I did contact them, because the first Adobe customer service person I chatted with told me to contact them. I sent a message to Apple support and told them that I purchased Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 from the Mac App Store, aaaaaand they told me to contact Adobe. I'm going in circles!
    Apple support said that the only thing I could do was "redownload the program" and "see if it asks me for the serial number" this time. They had no idea where to tell me to look for the serial number. Incidentally, there's technically no "download" option when you purchase from the Mac App store. After you click "buy," the option that displays is simply "install." So you click on that and the program installs. When it's finished, you can launch the program and, when you do, it just opens like normal. There is no prompt to register the product or enter the serial number. But I want to register my product with Adobe.com so I can be sure to get updates on it.
    Incidentally, I also already checked out the links you provided (which I did indicate in my original message). There is nothing there that gives any guidance whatsoever on where to find the serial number for a product purchased from the Mac App store. The closest option is the "store download" option, but those guidelines tell you to enter the redemption code. I was never given a redemption code. I simply clicked "buy" and then "install" and - poof! - the program was loaded on to my MacBook Pro.
    Surely i am not the only person who has ever purchased Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 Editor from the Mac App store. There HAS to be someone who knows what to do here.
    Thanks!

  • I want to ask u if it's legal on mac app store to exists apps with...

    i want to ask u if it's legal on mac app store to exists apps with free trial edition.
    Today i saw an app with free trial.
    http://itunes.apple.com/gr/app/elements-crm/id424618758?mt=12
    this is the app.
    if it's not legal how can i report it.
    thank u!

    There is no law against it, if that's what you mean. If you are concerned that it may be in violation of Apple's terms for the Mac App Store, you can contact Mac App Store Customer Service and bring it to their attention.
    Since this app is a subscription-based service, though, and the company is allowing you a 30-day trial subscription (as publishers have with newspaper and magazine subscriptions), it probably falls within the terms of the App Store. I would presume that Apple wouldn't have approved it if it did not.
    Regards.

  • About The Mac App Store?

    About The Mac App Store? is it doing well in Business, like do a lot of people go on it & buy & download Free Apps? cause I Worry what if it will be like if we had no Mac App Store like we used to? then I Would never be able to really find anything good if Apple did not come up with Something Papular to find Games Apps & other apps, I Go on Mac App Store & i look at Reviews but it is not up to today's date, very few of them have up to today's dat Reviews & Some don't even have any Reviews & some only have 1 Review in there that is up to date, it looks like Apple Mac App Store is Dead? or there just not Accepting Reviews?, so is The Mac App Store doing well? or is it ready to go out of Business? I Love The Mac App Store, I do buy things on there, last thing I Bought was FlatOut 2 & I Left a Review, if there was No Mac App Store then it will be Hard to find App's, they made The Mac App Store to find Apps more easy if we go back the other way then it would be hard to find Apps & that would suck, like it used to, we had to go through a Whole List to find something, that was the old way around I do have a Suggestion, I think they should make the Mac App Store for PC Microsoft Computers & name it The PC App Store even though i'll never go back to Microsoft PC Computers, i'm sticking with Apple iMac Computers from now on, so what are your Opinion on The Mac App Store? I Never have any trouble at all on My 2009 24inch Apple iMac computer, all The Apps that I Buy on The Mac App Store work Excellent  on My Machine & The Mac App Store works Excellent as well, I buy a lot of Car Racing Games on The Mac App Store & Some other Apps I Buy on The Mac App Store are not all Up To Date, I check MacUpdate they say a New version is Available but The Mac App Store has the low version on some Apps, I see there falling behind on some things, so what's your opinion on The Mac App Store? & they don't Update there Twitter page often? but I see there still putting New Apps on The Mac App Store every day, I Hope things don't go back the old way again? just wondering what will happen in the future for The Mac App Store?

    If you're a developer with proper access, you can read this document: http://developer.apple.com/devcenter/mac/checklist/
    Title: "Get your mac apps ready for the mac app store"
    It covers all that's needed to modify in your application's package in order to submit it and have it work with the Mac App Store. Apple's new framework (similar to an API) for the app store is the "AppKit" framework.

  • IMPACT ON MAC APP STORE PURCHASES BY CHANGING COUNTRY

    I bought Mac App Store apps in the Netherlands, however I moved to Spain, made my Apple ID to be associated to the Spanish App Store and the apps do not appear there as purchased. The apps are still on my SSD. So if not solved I cannot get updates ...or  get them on another Mac without repurchasing. Some of them are expensive.
    Thanks,
    Peter

    Good morning Dahveed,
    I confirm, the Mac App Store-apple ID and iOS account-apple ID are the same, now both in Spain. As the Mac App Store apps seem to be on Apple's servers, it should be possible to install them again even if I bought them in a different store (in NL). Maybe in the future with iCloud functionality ? It would be especially important if I would buy a new Mac. But then a copy of the app from my present Mac to the new Mac could do the job I guess.
    In any case, best regards,
    Peter
