How do I resolve a failed download, "Use Purchases Page to download again"..

Daniel,

Interesting. I guess Apple was right that iTunes and the Mac App Store are separate accounts and that downgrading shouldn't affect the Mac App Store. I'll have to dig around some more to find out what's going on.

It's good to know that the Mac App Store works for you on Yosemite 10.010.3 and iTunes 11.4 but I'm stumped on why it's not working here.

If you come up with any solutions or have suggestions, I'm open.

I don't use Trim Enabler so it's possible that it is the critical difference between our systems. Maybe try uninstalling Trim Enabler and see if that makes the difference. You might have to go through with the whole business of reinstalling iTunes 12 and then replacing it with 11.4 again.

The only other thing I can think of is that after reinstalling iTunes 12 I deleted every file and folder I could find with "appstore" in the title in the Library folders and in /private/var/folders/, confirmed that the App Store was working, and only then replaced iTunes 12 with iTunes 11.4. Maybe you missed one problematic file or folder?

Great, this did the trick for me!

I'm unable to download Sofortbild v. 1.3 at the moment. The home page for Sofortbild warns there is a problem with AppStore, how do I get Apple to deal with this?

I have the same problem with Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. I have installed it on this computer before, as recently as two months ago, but when I try to download it now I get an error message saying it failed to download.

On El Capitan, the new rootless feature won't allow you to download some apps if it's disabled. I had to reinstall El Capitan to get rootless back.

********. Apps can't be downloaded on any system since 30th of September due to change in Apple's CDN (Akamai was replaced by Apple's own one)

I don't have any issues downloading apps in iTunes App Store or Mac App Store.

I think that if you keep badmouthing Apple with fibs, the Hosts will do more than remove your comments. The next step is a forced vacation from the Apple Support Communities.

Many folks have resolved the issue by using a more reliable DNS service.

Late 2012 Mac mini, OS X El Capitan 10.11; Apple Watch, 38 mm silver AL, Watch OS 2; iPad Air 2 & iPhone 6+, iOS 9.0.2

How do I do that?

I'm having issues downloading Knights of the Old Republic as well. Anyone have any suggestions?

Wait it out. They changed to their own Content Delivery Network and DNS needs time to update across the world. It willbe fine in 24 hours usually.

Firstly I have solution (admins are deleting it); secondly if it works for you it doesn't mean it works for others; thirdly apple support is blaming me for issue as dev in front of my customers. So when I solve their issue I am punished.

you are awesome bro

i don´t know why they deleted over and over again the xhruso00terminal solution, maybe because it imply the host file...

i tried it but didn´t work on my MBA Yosemite and Mavericks partitions, also i tried changing dns with google and open dns but nothing happens.

i can´t download:

- iwork (pages, keynote, numbers)

- imovie

- iphoto

- caffeine

- mplayerx

- call of duty

APPLE I NEED MY APPS AND I´M STILL WAITING…. TWO WEEKS AND YOU CAN´T FIX IT

I just tried installing Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic again, just or kicks before I was going to email Apple Support and it worked. I didn't do anything but wait and try to install it once a day.
