Wildcard when searching the App Store

CAN i use "*" when searching for an app in the App Store? Or what should i use as a joker instead?

I just tested with chess and I got a long list with chess, chess free, chess with friends free, etc...
Try a reset
Reset: Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Note: You will not lose any data

When searching the app store iTunes returns a blank screen.

I upgraded to iTunes 11.0.1 and found that I get a blank screen when I do a search in iTunes store. Any help??

Seems to work fine for me. Everything in the itunes store is the same as a website so if you are having a problem. It is probably an issue at their end.
Is it working now

Can't search the App Store!

Can't search the app store. Good connection and can see featured apps and other things but can't search for any games. Just comes up with "no results" Just seems to be a problem tonight within the last couple of hours.

You can work around this on your iPod/Phone by searching for an app by title using Google in Safari. If you get a hit in Safari for an app that links directly to the app store, when you click on it, it will flip you to an installation screen for that app on your device, and it installs like normal when you click the button. Clumsy and irritating, but it works. Just finished setting up my wife's iPhone 4S and it was the only way to get the vz contact transfer app onto her phone.
Apple has got to know there's a problem by now, though -- their employees must be having the same issue, and i can hardly imagine an Apple employee hanging out in the cafeteria on their campus with a Droid or an HTC phone.

After upgrading to Yosemite, iphoto has a white symbol across it indicating it needs to be upgraded. When at the app store the install option is not available?

Close apps
1. Double tap the home button to bring up the multi-tasking view
2. Swipe the app's windows upwards to close
3. The app will fly off the screen

yeah I watched the keynote about the app store and I wasn't sure the exact day. The new iPhone is coming out this month as well am I correct? If so, then thats when the app store will be available. Sometime after the new iPhone release. They will prob. come with the app store before shipped.
No, the app store will be out when the iPhone Firmware 2.0 is released. The 2nd gen phone is to be released "some time in 2008" not necessarily when the 2.0 update is released. However, Apple has been letting stock of the 1st gen iPhone draw down so you can make your own conclusions.
Right, well, here's the news of what I know...
Apple Stores of New York City and New Jersey (Freehold, NJ, others unsure) are out of stock.

When using the app store i get kicked back to the home screen?

I will be browsing through the app store on my iPad and all of a sudden the screen goes black for second and then I'm back at the iPad home screen? It happens pretty frequently and only seems to happen when using the app store. I don't understand why I keep gettig kicked back to home screen and any solution would be appreciated.

Im sorry I will try to be more clear.. and I appreciate all of ur input. Wi-fi works fine.. everything opens and functions fine on the I pad. The problem is I will click on app store or the I tunes store...it opens fine and I am able to look at and download apps etc... but after being in the appstore or I tunes store for a couple of minutes I get kicked out to the I pads home screen. Its like pushing the home button but I didn't. It only seems to do this when im in the app store or I tunes store. I have been using the chrome browser and other downloaded apps such as ebay just fine with out this problem occurring. Not sure about safari as I dont use it and use chrome instead. Um I don't think the home button its self is faulty because it works fine and as stated before this only happens when I am in the appstore or I tunes . I've only had this I pad 1 64gb wi-fi for a few days .. I got it off of ebay it was stuck in restore mode getting error code 1611. I was able to successfully Restore it with I tunes and it running ios 5.1. Seams to work great besides the problem being mentioned.

IOS 6 crashes when searching on App Store

iPod touch 4g iOS 6.
Updated because I thought iOS 6 would improve the minor lag I had before. Opposite.
Lags when scrolling. Crashes EVERY time I search for an app on the App Store
This isn't only me. Go do a google search (bet google doesn't release unfinished firmwares) iOS 6 App Store crash
This is ridiculous.
Oh right, I restored my iPod before updating so its not because "I have too many apps"
Just something to think about. Test the updates before you release them to the public
I mean I can't even search for apps. It crashes EVERY TIME
I'd be 100% a ok with this if it was still beta but come on apple. This is an official release

I had to do the EXACT same thing with my iPod! (I was running out of space because I backed up my iPod too often) And it seems to only crash when I search for YouTube...
They seriously need to fix this...

HT204266 Searching The App Store for Specific Apps?????

Apple products have changed my life for the better. Apple websites?... well let's just say that I find them difficult to use. Take the App Store, for instance, having just purchased an iPad I am interested in purchasing some apps to use on it. Alas when I check out the listings on the App Store I am unable to find the apps I am interested in. First off I am unsure which category to look in...would bird identification guides be listed under sports or reference? I checked both and neither appears to contain the birdwatching guide I am interested in, iBird Pro. Is there any way to conduct a search of the App Store for a particular app? I tried typing iBird Pro into the search window and it found nothing...
Thanks

Michael,
Problem Solved! If you can believe this if you go to the iTunes Store and click on the Browse Apps Store link at the bottom right corner of the page you will be brought to a page displaying the various App Categories (Books, Business, Catalogs, etc). In the upper right hand corner of this page there is a search box. I had typed iBird Pro and then birdwatching into this search box and got the No Suggestions Found error message. Today I spoke with a support person at Apple and together we discovered what the problem is. The search box on this Browse App Store page DOES NOT SEARCH FOR APPS in the App Store, rather it just searches on the Apple site. To search for apps you must do so through the actual iTunes Store site.
I pointed out to the rep (a very nice lady) that in labeling the option "Browse App Store" they are leading the viewer to believe that clicking on the link actually brings you to the Apps Store Page and thus should allow you to perform an Apps Search. She allowed as to how she supposed one might think that, to which I replied that it's not exactly "intuitive" to realize that clicking Browse App Store just brings up a dummy/model but non operative site.
Her reply to this?
Well it's intuitive now that you know it...
Bill Gates, are you listening?
Thanks again for your help.

When is the App Store going to be back up?

When is Credit Card processing going to return to the App Store?

Every time I open the App Store on my MacBook Retina and try to purchase an app, I get an error that Credit Card processing isn't available right now, check back later.
So, no, there ARE problems with it.

When will the App store be expanded to more countries?

I have a pre2 and love the gizmo, but the **bleep** issue is that I'm in a country that does not allow to buy via the app store. It seems Belgium is a 3rd world country.
This is extremely annoying, as in most of the lite versions of the programs you can not exceed a number of storags capacities.
And i want to upgrade them but it is simply not possible.
Are there any plans to expand the number of countries and so yes when will this be and what list of countries would that be?
Thx in advance,
Jürgen
Post relates to: Pre 2 p102ueu (Unlocked EU)

Purchased my Pre in october 2009 and little did I know that I still would be without paid apps in 2011.
Sure I feel neglected but webOS is still amazing and its not like there is a good alternative out there. Can't wait for the new devices to launch as that will hopefully be done on a wider scale and give support to more countries. Now, bring us some Pre3's and Touchpads to Scandinavia, please.

I have an old work apple ID that is associated with my App Store . I have created new apple ids and reset in settings but whenI access the App Store it still defaults to my old work apple ID. I can't seem to get passed this, any ideas?

I have an old work e mail address that was a primary apple id. The App Store uses this as a default. I have created a new apple ID and changed this in the settings but the App Store still defaults to the old address. How can I get change this as I cannot update anything at this stage. I cannot create a new password against the ole apple ID as the e mail is no longer valid, old work e mail

Hi tried the various options but ended up deleting the apps associated with the old Appleid and then accessing them from the App Store and reloading. They automatically asked for the new Appleid and password.

TS1424 Is anyone else unable to search the App Store from iPod Touch 4G since the software update?

Every time I go to the App Store since the update yesterday, it crashes after a few moments and drops me back at the home screen. Any advice?

Today I see lots of other people are having similar issues, but I'm not seeing any replies. I contacted apple, and the rep said to look here of call tech support. This sounds to me like a real problem that is addressing many users and needs to be officially addressed.
