The Mac App Store is just like the App Store for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. So it's as easy to find and download Mac apps as it is to add your favorite magazine to iPad or a new game to iPod touch. You can browse Mac apps by category, such as games, productivity, music, and more. Or do a quick search for something specific. Read developer descriptions and user reviews. Flip through screenshots. When you find an app you like, click to buy it.

The concept behind this app is its greatest flaw and is reflected when I try to use it. If the user buys an Apple in another country and activates an account with Apple, this app only displays the store and language from that country so this means that if you are from the UK or America and can't read French or Japanese and you're Apple product was activated there, you are out of luck unless you jump through the additional hoops of creating a new Apple ID and linking that to a credit card back in your country and even then there can be problems.
This application is functions based upon where your credit card is from and not what language you want to use on your iGadget!
This also means that Apple can and will determine what software you install on your Mac and how you can install and run it.

They said it uploaded to 1.1.1 but mine is 1.1.2 already and still the same (big) lag and bugs!

DEVONagent Express is a fine product, but the App Store is very problematic. I went there to update to 3.1.1 in my account and it tells me that all my apps are up to date. I go to DEVONtechnologies, LLC URL and no is no choice to update on their site and, of course, we can no longer update certain applications on MacUpdate. DEVONagent Express itself contains no updater. So what is one to do????

I have found the App Store to be so unlike anything the Steve Jobs envisioned or even a representative as an Apple product. This is not the first time that the App Store has been a problem for me, plus the last time I e-mailed them for support online, with the online acknowledgement that my e-mail was received, I never received a reply from the App Store.

The App Store has never been user friendly, unlike Apple online or Apple Stores!!!

Hmmm.

If you have seen Steve Jobs (RIP) interviews you will know he was discussing these "apps" that could take data from the cloud (basically a web server - or a fluffy cloud of marketing mabye). Anyway he discussed how in certain cases they are better than web sites as the client is under full control of the programmers. Coders are not forced to use a browser.

This is a classic example and one of the first on OSX. On iOS these are rampant now. it annoys me as it is dry and boring and feels just grey but this site is alive with comments and is very colourful. On iOS it is touchy and wobbles so not so grey...but still grey.

I can see it's worth but I would hate to loose a site like this for a grey Apple cell were you have straight jacket on just in case you say something naughty. That would be me banned.

I just can't see people installing a zillion apps or an app every time they want content. Much easier to use a browser. Can these cloud apps kill web sites? I think some will sadly. But I still see a need for web sites forever.

A new article from MacWorld that summarizes the concern that the Mac App Store will drag the platform down:

This may be a good solution for newcomers to the Mac, but for developer, this is a huge problem. Apple has quite heavily devaluated the worth of software with the App Store, increasing the amount of "Free Culture" people out there and/or people expecting a bargain price for hard work. Also, Apple doesn't care for developer e-mails at all. You're lucky if you even get an automated e-mail back. On top of that, by November 2011, their "sandboxing" policy will be enforced on the App Store, which means all pro apps will be pulled, leaving only software behind that is contained to its sandbox.

Their approach of slowly fusing iOS and Mac OS X together is going to go very wrong for them.

Ever since the App Store has existed, nothing has improved and it's a joke of a iPad ported app. It was fine the way it was before for Mac users, you went to developer's sites or sites like MacUpdate and you got your app and learned about new ones. I hate the digital crap also, sometimes I do want a CD man.

Since apple app store exists there are many mono-function programs around.

The quality of the software decreases and the service is very bad.

The programs does not work correctly and sometimes the CPU usage is 80% for calculating 2x2.

I will never buy a software which I could not tested before.

Use your shortcut keys: Apple + Shift + 4 to take a screen pic of whatever you are trying copy when it seems the regular copy keys won't work.

Works okay, but the language of the app store still does not match the system language, but instead the language of the country your credit card comes from, in some ways. This is not a good thing in a world where you may speak a different language than the country in which you live. This seems very lame given Apple's fairly good system localization. They localize the system, but for some reason seem unable to localize the store to the language the customer might prefer.

I was unable to download the Update. I was referred to Apples site and there is no download button. More Apple crap.

Hawke5501: That is because this is the version that comes pre-loaded in Lion.

(Thats' what it means when the description says "Released with OS X Lion".)

This is my complaint as well. This is not very Apple at all.

If you can't install updates of things you've already purchased through the App Store, it's possible the Spotlight indexing the store depends on has gone bad. Open System Preferences -> Spotlight, click on the Privacy tab. Add your hard drive (e.g. "Macintosh HD"). Close that window and reboot. Then open System Preferences -> Spotlight, click on the Privacy tab, and remove "Macintosh HD". Let the index rebuild, and then re-launch the App Store. I had 2 updates that would not load, this fixed one of them. (I'm still trying to figure out how to fix the other update.)

Can't Login or Access Account Info on Mac App Store

I'm unable to either login or access account info on the Mac App Store. I click "Login" or "Account" from the sidebar and absolutely nothing happens. I sit and wait, thinking perhaps it's just a little slow, and nothing. Anybody else having this issue and is there any way to fix it?

Hi, Look behind your window for a new window to log into. However, while I have found the window, I cannot get info into it. I did contact Apple,but they were no help whatsoever. Perhaps when Apple upgrades (if ever), the new version will work. We can hope!!!
