Windows Store: "Your app licenses couldn't be synchronized."

Since installing Windows 8.1 on my three tablets, I no longer can synchronize app licenses (Store, App updates).
What I have done so far to overcome this issue:
- double-checked that time/date, time-zone, and region settings are consistent across devices
- run the Microsoft account trouble-shooter
- run the apps trouble-shooter
- run the Windows Update trouble-shooter
- used different networks to connect
- reset the Windows Store
Nothing helped. I'm on my wit's end. I need help.

I, of course and as said in my original post, did run the account trouble-shooter.
As you suggested, I did contact MS through that Account Support page - that has been three days ago, and despite of their promise to contact me within 24 hours, I have until now not heard anything from them (and yes, I checked my spam mail folder).
Great service. 
Just got an answer; let me quote it (and you can see how valuable it is:

  • Scan barcodes using C# in Windows store 8 app

    I am working on a Windows Store 8 App (targets windows 8 and not windows 8.1) and need to integrate barcode reading functionality on the app. I am using C#/XAML in this app.
    I am looked on internet and came across this link that shows some code for this functionality. But it seems to target only windows 8.1. I have also checked this library from codeplex and find that this refers to only a subset of barcode types.
    I want to know is there any API with the help of which I can read barcodes in Windows 8 Store app.
    I will be capturing images from the tab's camera and reading the images to decode the barcodes and use it further in the app.

    The LeadTools SDK contains Win8 libraries for different 1-D and 2-D barcode types and it includes assemblies for both 8.0 and 8.1

  • Why is there no "SEARCH OPTION" in the Windows Store? Apps missing be nice if I could find them !

    Since on this journey from Win 8 consumer preview to Win 8 retail preview   ..And no currently trying out Win 8 Pro...It verified if it was gonna give me back ( allowed to re-download ) the apps I was used/had in previous editions. The Store gives you
    a selection of YOU APPS from previous versions of the OS preview of apps you installed and currently would want to reinstall. Various versions of the Consumer preview I installed 2 out the 4 times i installed the OS seen I had installed the app Comixology.
    When the first time I installed Retail preview it didn't have it in my list nor was it listed in the store!  Same goes with Iheart Radio and Slacker Radio though numerous installments of the OS. Now trying out the Win 8 Pro 9200 version It showed I at
    one point no matter what PC I used ( I own a few and bought a new one recently ) It showed at one point I installed Comixology. Yet it didn't show Iheart Radio or Slacker in my install list of old to reinstall nor was it even in the Store!!!!   \\\So
    what the hell gives ?????   I mean If there was a SEARCH Option it would make it easier to track these Metro ( whatever they are calling it now -personally I think they should call it FRAMES as in Window Frames  :P  When you go on these
    programs sites they only offer up Apple or Android app downloads and nothing mentioning of Metro or Win 8 -which is understandable due to not being released yet but still if the Store can't comply with your history of app install base ( paid or free ) and
    you can't have the ability to retrieves said apps you once installed how can that be trusted if and when paid apps are bought if you are only to reinstall the entire OS and find that your app is not obtainable via offered through the main store or even in
    your downloads app install history. I hope they fix this issue as it's been pissing me off since this whole testing thing!!  

    Sorry if I offended you by using an anecdote - the actions of kids are simply an easy way to explore the actions of adults.  Growing up doesn't change base instincts.  Most people (myself included) tend to have an immediate distrust of change when
    it is not change that they are instigating, when it is forced upon them.  What better example is there than a child, where many big decisions are made for them?
    As for the new interface, I didn't catch on until it was revealed to me (or I hit my head against the wall, can't remember), so I'm not saying it is easy.  Better education is needed, but going back to the old way doesn't help.  The five or six
    questions I have answered today are questions that I myself had, and wished someone had answered for me.  This is a
    drastic change from old versions of Windows.  I even told my boss yesterday that I can't see his company (I'm a contractor) switching any time soon - too much new stuff to learn.  That being said, once there are some good training tools available,
    I do believe that this OS will be a good choice - it does feel more intuitive after only a few days of use.  A training course is likely necessary for new users, however my guess is that this will wind up being a beneficial change (long-run)
    for IT departments, because the system does feel more aimed towards the casual user.  No matter what program you use, the search and settings are in one easy place.
    I admittedly do not have a lot of files in my Skydrive, however the file that is there is purple, while the folders are blue.  Not sure if all files are like that, and I really do not have the time to explore those differences.  That being said,
    the number in the bottom-right seems pretty self-explanatory, the number of child elements in the container.  I barely remember the old Skydrive interface, however I do remember it felt clunky.  Whether or not the changes are a true
    improvement, it does feel more streamlined.
    Metro (or whatever it is called now) is confusing.  It is scary.  (My word, not yours, nor am I trying to imply it.)  It is definitely
    different from the past.  But it makes sense.  Same interface on every MS product: Xbox, Windows, and Phone.  Microsoft didn't exactly
    pioneer this idea, either.  Apple has been creeping in that direction for a while now.  As I said previously, I can move around faster in the new Start menu than I could in the old, and I can actually do
    more without ever putting a hand on the mouse - for anyone that is waist-deep in computers, regardless of their specific job, that tends to be a
    good thing.
    There are a lot of growing pains here, for both Microsoft and the consumer.  Has MS gotten it right?  Not yet, not entirely, but the goal is clear.
    If your complaint is on broken
    functionality, then I wouldn't disagree with you.  There is plenty of that, and I think it was a bit foolish of Microsoft not to have a Connect site up for such things.  (If I'm wrong on that, and there is one, please point me that way.  I'm
    still stuck with Explorer.exe crashing from click-scrolling.)
    As for disliking the big changes, well, I can't agree with you on that at all.  Again, it wasn't an easy transition, but now that I'm here, I don't want to go back.  I want the true
    bugs fixed, but not having a search bar seems more like being stuck on old ways of doing things than a real problem.  That kind of thing can even lead to puking.

    ..Tcodes SP01. SP02 etc are used for spool . Any one can use this tcodes
    TSP01 is the table.
    Any of your objects that you give for print are stored as spools in this Tcode. Sometimes based on the attributes you set spool gets created and then deleted. Or you can retain the spool.
    Goto SP01 and give your Uname and you can check the spool id's over there. Click on them to see the content.

    You can maintain the spools: delete, print, save local file etc.

  • My latest app - European Space Agency News (featuring Bing Translate) is now in he Windows Store

    http://apps.microsoft.com/windows/app/european-space-agency-news/092f5794-8705-49bc-b27e-17ad5fd754b2
    The European Space Agency (ESA) is Europe's gateway to space. Its mission is to shape the development of Europe's space capability and ensure that investment in space continues to deliver benefits to the citizens of Europe and the world.
    European Space Agency News features nine topical news and image galleries from the ESA and 19 "news from member countries" galleries. Since the news from member countries was presented in the language of that country, I used an in app translate
    function so that news in each gallery can be read in multiple languages (languages supported by Bing Translator).

  • Local Database Options for Windows Store Apps

    I am looking to create an application that will allow for entry of data from a user and write it to a database file system locally within the application.
    I am new to Windows Store type app development and are a senior developer for ERP systems for the enterprise which have rich databases and client apps that are built with a MVC type configuration. The app communicates with the database which is on the DB
    server (Oracle, IBM DB2, or SQL Server) and writes to the file system.
    For my startup applications I would like to have a simple CRUD type interface that writes to a DB that is part of the application and does not require a connection to a file server or DB server.  Internally I would like something with a few tables,
    etc.. that I can write to and then report from locally.
    In the Windows 8x development world, what is the best method and technology to use for Store Apps for this scenario?  What is the best approach?

    Hi  Karens23,
    Till now there is no report or same case about Windows 8.1 App issue caused by update 12/14/2014.
    Since Windows 8 will need to be activated before the Store and apps will work. You will need to either be signed in to Windows 8 or the Store with a Microsoft account to be able to use an app that uses a Microsoft service. So please make sure your Windows
    activation state is still activated and Sync your app license again by using following steps.
    Step 1: On the Start screen, tap or click Store.
    Step 2: Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, and tap Settings.
    (If you're using a mouse, point to the upper-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer down, and then click Settings.)
    Step 3: Tap or click App updates.
    If you haven't signed in to the Windows Store, sign in using your Microsoft account.
    Step 4: Tap or click Sync licenses.
    If syncing the app license doesn't help, press
    Win+R. Enter wsreset then click OK, In Windows 8.1 the store will simply open.
    It resets the Windows Store without changing account settings or deleting installed apps
    Then Check the following Registry Key by pressing
    Win+R enter “regedit” click “OK”
    ( HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\AppModel\Repository\Packages)
    Right click Packages select “permissions” and make sure
    SYSTEM has all the following Rights checked:
    Full control(allow)
    Read(allow)
    Special permission(allow)
    If the issues persists, we recommended running Apps troubleshooter on your computer and see if it could find and fix this issue. You also could restore your system to a earlier point before 12/14/2014 or uninstall these
    updates manually from control panel to see what happens. Then try update again.
    About App troubleshooter:
    You can download Apps troubleshooter from:
    http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=268423
    If you're still having trouble with the app after you running it, please upload the troubleshooting result and we will help you according to the results.

  • Why am I getting the message "Your app isn't identified as a universal app in the Store." when I have already associated my Windows Phone app to my Windows Store app?

    I associated two Windows Phone apps to their respective Windows Store apps yet one of them is giving me this message on the pricing tab...
    "Your app isn’t identified as a universal app in the Store. Publish a Windows app with the same name, and you’ll enable the universal app icon, with all the associated benefits. If you’ve already published a related Windows app, this icon may not

    I downloaded the new OS X Yosemite.
    Not sure what you mean by new, since Yosemite was released about 9 months ago.
    When i  try to open it i get this message, The version of iPhoto installed on this Mac is not compatible with OS X Yosemite.
    iPhoto version 9.6.1 is the latest version of iPhoto that is compatible with Yosemite. If you're just now updating to Yosemite from an older version of OS X, then you may have missed your window of opportunity to upgrade iPhoto to the latest version.
    So i go to the Mac App Store i get this message, "The item you've requested is not currently available in the U.S. store."
    With the release of the 3rd Yosemite update,10.10.3, which includes Photos, iPhoto is no longer available for purchase.
    I would recommend that you use Photos.

  • Failed Windows Store App certification - error 10.3.1 Unfortunately when we reviewed your app, it failed to launch every time. - No clue

    I am trying to submit a Windows Store App (x64 for Windows 8.1 only), but it fails the certification procedure,  and I have no idea about what I am doing wrong.
    - The app passes successfully the local Windows App Certification Kit 3.4.
    - I have tried the app with the network cable out, and it works as expected.
    - I have used the same credentials to generate the appupload package and to submit it.
    - The app starts up and works as expected with a Surface Pro 3, a PC with development tools like Visual Studio; and another PC without anything extra installed.
    - The feedback provided by the certification testers is the following sentence: "10.3.1 App is testable: Unfortunately when we reviewed your app, it failed to launch every time."
    - Their attachment is a screenshot showing a fullscreen, flat color, rectangle.
    - There is no crash report of any kind.
    - The e-mail interaction with the certification guys seems to be quite a nonsensical conversation.

  • Windows Store App can't verify the server is trusted for your sign in address

    I am aware this is (or was) an issue for the Lync 2013 client as well, as per
    http://terenceluk.blogspot.ie/2013/04/signing-into-lync-2013-client-presents.html
    This does seem to be fixed at this stage though, because after adding lyncdiscoverinternal.SIPdomain.com the Lync 2013 client does not prompt about the certificate.
    However, the Windows Store app does prompt "Lync can't verify that the server is trusted for your sign-in address. Connect anyway?" This presumably boils down to the same issue where our Lync 2013 Frontend is lyncfrontend.internal.domain.com which
    does not match the SIPdomain.com.
    Is there a fix for this other than forcing lyncdiscoverinternal to the reverse proxy? The TrustModelData registry key only applies to the Lync 2013 full client so does not affect the Windows Store app.
    Any suggestions would be welcome.

    Hi wagenveld,
    Create the DNS records as below:
    Internal SIPdomain.com zone:
    DNS A record:
    lyncdiscoverinternal.SIPdomain.com-> sip.SIPdomain.com
    DNS A record: 
    sip.SIPdomain.com-> IP address of Front End Server
    For details, you can refer to the following blog:

  • How to get sideload product key in order to deploy windows store app into Windows 8 pro and windows RT

    From where can i get the Windows 8 sideload product key and the process how to get it .please explain in detail .

    I was able to resolve my issue once I worked with Microsoft Professional Services.  Here are the steps needed to deploy a Windows 8 Store app for anyone else looking for help on this.
    Create your app package in Visual Studio
        https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/jj874388.aspx
    Create an app certificate using PowerShell as administrator, here is one way to do it.
        https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/jj835832%28v=vs.85%29.aspx
    Install the app on the device
        https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/jj835832%28v=vs.85%29.aspx
    Ensure Device has the correct GP settings
        http://blogs.technet.com/b/scd-odtsp/archive/2012/09/27/windows-8-sideloading-requirements.aspx
    Install the application on the device
        Refer to Sideload the app for user section
        https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/jj874388.aspx
    * If you run your app now you should get an error, this is because you have not installed a Sideloading Key
    And the missing piece of the puzzle What is a Sideload key and how can I get one?
    * Documentation on this is confusing so here is what I needed to know and found out
        Sideload key is a product key that is needed to be added to the device so that it can use Windows 8 apps that are not from the Store
        It is not a requirement to have the machine joined to the domain or have Windows Enterprise installed on it. In my case my target was a Windows 8.0 Pro tablet.
        You do not need Windows 8.1 to use sideloading it will work on Windows 8.0 as well
        You can purchase a key from a Third Party Distributor but you will need to know what to ask for
        Ask for a Windows 8 Sideloading Key, Sometimes referred to as a Windows 8 Embedded Sideloading product key
        They cost about $100.00 a pop but they sell them as a Volume License so the minimum you can by is 5.
        However in my case it turned out that my company had an Enterprise Sideloading License, I just needed to know who to ask and what to ask for.
        Once you get your xxxxx-xxxxx- Slideloading key from the distributor here are the steps to installing it on the device (Section 2 Step 3)
        http://blogs.msdn.com/b/micham/archive/2014/05/30/sideloading-store-apps-to-windows-8-1-devices.aspx
