It loads the App Store window and tries to load itself, but after 5-10 seconds it stops and has a nice, pretty message on the app store window "cannot connect to app store"
Hello, I was having the same problem, unable to connect to App store on MBP. I went to network settings and changed the DNS servers to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4, the Google servers. All works perfectly now.

I too am having this issue. I also cannot use mail or safari
I get this error message
Check with the developer to make sure App Store works with this version of OS X. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install any available updates for the application and OS X.
I obviously cannot connect to the app store to get another copy of OSX to reinstall....
please help
I had a similar problem after upgrading from one Mac to another. My problem was that GlimmerBlocker's install was compromised after the upgrade. I opened the GlimmerBlocker System Preferences item, and was given the option there to repair the installation. After doing that, everything was fine.
FWIW.
I also had the error "App Store cannot verify a secure connection with the App Store".
For me it was my DNS settings, so nothing would resolve.
I had just installed Server.app which turned on DNS Server which I immediately shut off. But then I had to go to System Preferences -> Network -> Advanced -> DNS and remove the hard coded entry for 127.0.0.1.

Hey all - Somewhere else on these forums I got a hit about the Apple Phone Service saying that the App Store uses the same engines as Safari.
I restarted Safari since I don't know when last and prepared also to reset the App Store, as instructed by the guy who writes articles here.
I accidentally started the App Store when I was supposed to shut it down for the resetting, but it worked!
Well go figure, the Apple Phone Guy were right.
Good luck,
Would the reset system preferences option reset all preferences to their defaults?
Unchecking 'Auto Proxy Discovery' worked for me, thanks man!
Thanks man i was screwing... it was proxies on 1 build and date and time zone on another.

Using the Google DNS servers addressed the problem for me as well.
Unchecking the Auto Proxy Discovery worked for me too. Thanks a lot đ
