I am trying to update to 10.8.2
This has worked for some:
- Sign out of the App Store (in the Store menu)
- Quit the App Store
- In Finder - Go>Go to folder... (or Apple-shift-G)
- Paste in the following "~/Library/Caches/ "
- It will take you to a folder. Delete com.apple.appstore
- Launch the App Store. Sign in and then reclick the Mountain Lion buy. It won't charge you again.
You can also contact Apple:
Also having that problem trying to download 10.8.2 from the app store (on Sept. 21 at 8:43 p.m. ET).
I'm guessing it has to do with all the traffic going to the site from the iphone going on sale today. Also trying to download another app and it's taking FOREVER.
Same here: "The request timed out."
Only updates from other developers are displayed and updated correctly.
When only Apple software is needed to update [after waiting about 2 minutes] I'm getting the error above.
Having this problem since 10.7.4, now on 10.8.2... same error.
Tried to contact itunes store "geniuses" only got silly and not working solution.
I'm just trying to search for an app in App Store and I get request timed out. It use to work great what's going on? Do you have any suggestions like this for an iPhone 4 version 6.1.3? I can't seem to locate any entries in support that is usable for my phone
I have snow leapord currently installed, and I'm trying to update to mountain lion. Your fix doesn't seem to work for me, I assume because I'm just trying to update instead of purchasing? Do you have any other suggestions?
trying this now i hope it will work
What happens when you try to download? Any error messages? Try resetting the App Store.
