Why won't OS10.8 install from the App Store?
I continue to get an error occured message at 168mB with the download to upgrade running 10.7.5 on a new Mac mini 2,3 GHz Intel Core i5 with 2 GB 13333 MHz DDR3 Ram?
What is the error message?
This has worked for some people:
- Sign out of the App Store (in the Store menu)
- Quit the App Store
- In Finder - Go>Go to folder... (or Apple-shift-G)
- Paste in the following "~/Library/Caches/ "
- It will take you to a folder. Delete com.apple.appstore
- Launch the App Store. Sign in and then reclick the Mountain Lion buy. It won't charge you again.

hello guys i face a problem when i upgrade from iOS 4.2.1 to iOS 5.1.1 on ipad 3 .when i upgrade i don' t found the camera app from the built in apps.when i try to install from the app store i don't found the correct camera app .please help me .please give any suitable link where i find the correct camera app
It's a built-in app, so it can't be deleted nor downloaded from the store. If you can't find it on any of your homescreens or app folders, and you can't find it via the spotlight search screen (swipe your first home screen to the right), then is it hidden by Settings > General > Restrictions > Camera being set 'off' ?
If not then have you tried a reset to see if you can find it after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot. -
I Deleted a faulty App in order to do a fresh re-install from the App Store - but it keeps installing from Cloud storage and I don't know whether this is the original App.
How do I stop this happening?An app cannot self install. If you are using the App Store app see the app listed with a cloud icon, it means that app was downloaded previously but it is no longer on your device. Tap the cloud icon to redownload the app.

HT1349 cannot get lion to download and install from the app store
the lion os app took 2 days to down load then did not install from the app store.
Do you mean the install button stays on install, or do you notice a loading bar under your Launchpad icon?
This may help...

Aperture was originally installed from the app store, now its asking for a serial number. how do i download the serial number or reinstall from the app store?
The App Store version of Aperture will never ask for a serial number so something got confused on your system. Did you ever have a non App Store version of Aperture installed? Did you download the trial version for some reason?
You can try moving Aperture from the Application folder to the desktop and then going to the App Store. Log in with the same Apple ID you used to purchase Aperture and you should be able to download it again.

I purchased a few games from the app store recently. I have updated all of the software on my Macbook Pro but the applications will not launch. If the problem was contained within just one application, I could have fixed it, but neither of the applications will launch. I click on them, they turn blue, but that's it. I do not have an iPhone or iTouch with which to test the applications. Could somebody tell me what is wrong with my computer/the applications and how to fix them?!
Hello ah3636,
Apps on the iTunes store are made for the iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch and not the Mac.
By any chance, do you mean the Mac App Store?

Why can't I download anything from the App Store?
I tried downloading a free app from the apple App Store but I now get a message saying there was a problem taking payments and I have to update my credit card details. This is confusing as the app is free and I have never tried paying for an app without having the money in my bank to pay for it. Why does it now tell me I ended credit card details to install an app and why has the error occurred with my bank details?
Check to make sure your credit card details (like expire date, etc) are current.

I am trying to download a game from the app store to my apple but it turns up "Error en el App Store. Vuelve a intentarlo más tarde. (null)".
I am trying to download any other thing from the store and i can´t.
I would like that somebody could tell me if it is a problem of my computer or if it is an apple problem , and if i can do something to solve the problem.That cryptic error message might mean that the payment information in your account is invalid. Check with your credit-card issuer to see whether a charge was denied. If not, see below.
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2. -

Why cant i buy download anything from the app store after the new ios7 update?
Why cant I download anything from the app store after updating to the ios7.02 system?
Do you have a song or podcast in iTunes that did not finish downloading? If you do - finish that one first. The apps will not update until that download is complete.
If that doesn't do it - sign out of your account - Settings>Store>Apple ID - sign out. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button. Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and sign in again and see if you can tap on one app and start the download. -
I have an update for iPhoto in App store which won't download or clear from the App store
I have tried several times to update from iphoto 9.1.3 . The update in the App store is 9.4.3.
Every time I try I get 'cannot update as you already have this update. Although I don't.
Also I cannot delete the update in the store. Help.Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
If you have any external drives plugged, unplug them. Then, open App Store and check for updates again.
I recommend you to delete iPhoto from your Mac and reinstall it again, so go to the folder where you have iPhoto (normally, the Applications folder) and delete it. Then, if you purchased iPhoto from the App Store, open App Store > Purchases, and install iPhoto. The version you will have is 9.4.3.
If you purchased iPhoto on a DVD, insert the DVD and install iPhoto. Finally, open > Software Update, and install the latest version -
Mavericks won't install from the app store, it's not even downloading
I have a MacBook Pro that the apple website says is compatible with mavericks, but when i launch the app store, and try to download it, after entering my password and the button goes green and says 'install app' a loading icon appears briefly in the app store toolbar, then dissapears, and no app begins downloading! Help!
I've found it, this is a copy of the post-
terminal, key this in this: open $TMPDIR../C/ then a folder will appear, delete thecom.apple.appstore folder and then relaunch your Mac App Store.

1- I don't want any iCloud, App Store and things like that working in any way.
No, you can not disable the App Store. It is included on Macs running 10.6.6 or higher.
2 - I want to know if I can install in some way OSX 10.6 because 10.7 is very buggy and has much worse performances in every pro application I know and I suppose this is not only because it is a new OS but because the way it is created to stay always synced to a iCloud service and upgraded with the App Store, meaning the OS is always working to update/upgrade its status in iCloud/ App Store. And in general I don't have time to lose because Apple needs beta tester (even thought I think this time the problem isn't of the OS but of what you are asking to the OS... to update (and upload) its status everytime).
I have to use a system that works great, fast, without hassles and very reliable. That's the only reason why I choose Apple.
You can not install an earlier version of OS X than what originally came on your computer. Even if you did, it could cause major headaches: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2186
3 - I don't use the internet in the computer I'm working with (because from every aspects it's better to not use internet in a computer you are working with, because it slowes down everything and makes the computer behaviour really unpredictable. Now I'm using a Mac Pro first gen and it runs like the first day, that's because I've never used internet on it, I have another one near to it where I used internet and works at half of its potential, even thought it is mainteinedly properly, cleaning, repairing, everything)
Most people in this day and age use the internet on their computers and have no problems that you speak of.
And I'd like to know if there are any hassle of any kind if you use the computer without internet
In # 3 you already stated you use one without the internet. -
As the title says, I just bought my macbook pro. I'd like to reinstall Lion. However its not showing as "installed" in my app store? So How can I reinstall it?
No. Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
Drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
diskutil list
Post any lines of output that appear below what you entered — the text, please, not a screenshot.
