App store problems

I recently restored my mac to the factory settings, but when I reinstalled the apps, the app store didn't come with it. How do I get the app store back?

Hi..


You need to be running at the minimum Snow Leopard v10.6.6 (v10.6.8 preferred) to have access to the App Store.


If you have Snow Leoaprd v10.6 installed, download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo


If you are running Lion v10.7, download and install the OS X Lion Update 10.7.4 (Client Combo)


Either combo will reinstall the App Store for you. Restart your Mac after the combo is installed.
