Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT

Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

'This item is temporarily unavailable.' when trying to update some applications from App Store.

Updates are available for several applications (both paid and free).

When I try to update them, I get the message "This item is temporarily unavailable.".

At the same time, the Xcode was updated successfully.


macOS Mojave 10.14.6


MacBook Pro 15", macOS 10.14

The only time I've ever seen that "item unavailable" message is when the machine was purchased used.

Your Apple ID never downloaded them originally.
