Why is my app store not responding?
I'm having problems with my app store. It does not open. I can't download any new apps. Any solutions?
- double tap your home button
- force quit all apps from the multitasking bar
Then try a hard reset:
- hold the home button and sleep/wake button at the same time
- the iPhone will turn off(keep holding) then release both buttons when the apple logo appears
Now try open and load the app store again.

App Store not responding (Mountain Lion)
Hi everyone,
I'm having trouble with App Store after reformatting my MBP hard drive and restoring everything from a backup. App Store is unresponsive from launch; as soon as I open it, it goes to a spinning beachball, and Finder identifies it as "not responding." There is a spinning progress meter in the upper-left corner of the window, and all the App Store buttons and text fields are greyed out. I left it running overnight, with no apparent change; Activity Monitor shows it with low but constant level of CPU usage (~0.8%).
History: I had to reformat my MacBook Pro's hard drive after somehow knocking loose a RAM chip a week ago. I reinstalled OSX, and then had to manually restore my Time Machine backup since my external hard drive also got damaged... It's really been a great week Specifically, I stuck the hard drive into a Linux desktop with a SATA cable, used tmfs to copy the most recent backup to a different external hard drive, then copy-and-pasted my home directory back onto my MacBook Pro.
Current status: I just tried reinstalling Mountain Lion, with no luck. Because of all the copy-and-pasting through a Linux filesystem, a lot of my file ownerships and permissions are screwed up, but everything passes a Disk Utility permissions verification and repair. I have also tried deleting ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore, with no effect.
Thanks in advance for any help!OK, apologies, but I already solved the problem (I think). Console indicated that the problem was actually that the App Store was trying to file a crash report from the previous iteration of killing the process with command-alt-escape, but didn't have permissions to write to the relevant folder (see below). The folder in question had been set to owner 'root' by Ubuntu when I recovered my broken Time Machine drive, so I changed the owner back to myself. App Store opens and operates normally now.
I'm a bit puzzled as to why Disk Utility wasn't able to identify and fix the permissions on these system files and folders. Does anybody know why, and if there's a way for me to batch-fix all of my files that Ubuntu has switched to 'root'?

Why does the App Store not work in Genius with VoiceOver switched on
After I downloaded IOS 6 to my iPhone 4 there were a lot of things not working properly, the main things that were a problem was the App Store, to move anything with VoiceOver switched on it was touch-and then tap twice also to move the thing on the page you use three fingers swipe up or down left or right to move it. We now find that to move something in Charts you only need one finger touchon the left to move it.If Some body can come up with thee answer it is the People that work in the Accessability side of things at Apple. So if you know in Ireland why Apple cannot put in the info for Accessability for People who are Blind like me we cannot see what is going on we do not change anyof the settings...
Thank you very much for the reply. That certainly makes sense, as I am sure it is all the Time Machine backups I have that are at the root of the problem. How can I update all those older version Apps deeply embedded within my TM backups, or is the solution to unmount my 2TB drive that I use for TM?
I suppose if Apple could somehow direct the App Store to disregard all those other apps in TM, the problem would be resolved.

App store not responding when trying to upgrade to Mavericks
Hi all,
I have a Macbook pro (2.7 Ghz intel Core i7, 4 GB) with snow leopard (10.6.8) which I wanted to upgrade (finally) to Mavericks.
Sadly every time I press in the App store "free upgrade", the spinning wheel pops up and after a few seconds, when I select the application list I see that App store is no longer responding and I have to Force Quit the application.
Anyone an idea how I can resolve this problem? Let me know if you require any additional information.
Thank you for your help
TomI'm not sure I quite understand what you are doing, so:
Open App Store and sign in with your Apple ID. Click on the Updates icon in the toolbar. After a while of a spinning gear a listing of any available updates should appear. Mavericks should be one of them. To the right you should see an Update button. Click that button to start the download.
If you continue to have a problem with App Store then see: Troubleshooting the Mac App Store and Mac App Store may become unresponsive when installing apps for possible solutions. Or under Quick Links click on the Support link to get help. -

FaceTime crashing while talking followed by inability to reconnect when dialling (cut off when person answers). Once this happens, iTunes, app store drop off after initially responding. Whole issue resolved when ad restored while connected to iTunes on windows computer, just to reappear later if FaceTime used!

Why is the app store not loading!?
I'm geniunly p!$$ed off. The App store loads half way and then stops.. Ugh, whats wrong with it? This didn't happen untill i downloaded that stupid update. I knew it. I just KNEW i shouldn't have downloaded it. All of the new updates for my ipod touch requires wifi, and I don't even have wifi, so it's useless. I should have listened to myself.... And then this dumb website literally moves SO slow.. It takes like a minute for the flippen page to load. Ugh, can someone please help me fix it? The app store, i mean.
Can't connect to the iTunes Store
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
