    App Store Destroying Battery Life

    For the past couple weeks I have noticed a significant drop in battery life and it has consistently been because of the App Store. I always completely close out the application when I am not using it, yet it still runs in the background. I have also changed my settings to not allow automatic app...

    Install older versions of apps with iTunes

    So I hate the new version of iTunes, specifically how Apps, Books, and Ringtones are not managed the way they were in the past. I've got a pretty good handle on how to transfer books and ringtones over, but here's my app issue. I like getting updates for apps. But I don't like automatic...

    How can I get the App Store to work?

    My 2011 MacBook Pro crashed. Hard. Not even a startup chime. Black screen. Worked two nights ago, was dead the next morning. Apple was no help at all - but that's okay. It is an older machine. I have a 2008 MacBook Pro that I managed to resurrect - sort of. I had Mavericks on a USB stick and...

    Version History Incorrect in App Store...?

    Ok, so, I am both confused and annoyed, but maybe I'm the only one who noticed this. I like to, before buying or downloading an app on the App Store, check the version history to see how often it is being updated, and if it has had a recent update, just to see if the developer is supporting the...

    App store purchase confirmation

    I tried searching for this, but no luck. Probably not using correct terms. Anyway, with the ios11 update, I now get a chime and (haptic) buzz when I use the touch ID to confirm an app purchase download. How do I kill that noise and buzz? I've checked Settings>Notifications and Settings>App...

    No link to app page from "purchased" view

    Noticed that a lot of older apps I've purchased (and a few newer ones) no longer link to the app page from the "Purchased" view. Does this mean that the app is officially gone from the App Store, as in sunset/EOL by the developer? I know I can still download the last available version, but just...
