Hello everyone,

I'm having issues with the App Store.

I just bought a second computer and I'm using the same iCloud account on both computers. They have different user names (computer log in and password) but under the same iCloud.

When I try to download twitter, or memory clean, apps that I already have on the other mac, I only get an option here to "update" even though I don't have installed in the first place. When I try to "update" it tells me to go to "Purchased" and download from there, but I get the same issues, still shows update and I get the same error.. I already tried to go to my account and clear the warning messages but still nothing..

Any ideas?

Sorry but how can they have different user names but the same iCloud account?

Maybe he means that he uses a different login/password combination for each computer but he doesn't have more than one iCloud account (email/password).
