Q: Mac AppStore won't even start today!

I was a happy user of mac appstore. I did not use it often, but from time to time. May be once a week.

If I click the icon to start it, it bounces for a while, and then stop bouncing. That's all it does. See the video below.

Is there a solution for this?
Can anyone explain why this is happening?

Macbook Pro 15, Mac OS X (10.6.6)

    It solved my problem too! Late 2012 2.9 GHz Core i5 iMac 8 GB RAM, OS 10.8.2. Kirk at BusyCal referencedthis site. I only had to delete ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/Cache.db and ~/Library/Preferences/ com.apple.appstore.plist—and then restart.

     

    One should note her ~/Library caution and the required restart when finished.
