Resolved Mac App Store not working PLEASE HELP

[chatoyer]

After doing 10.12.1 and the new iTunes, Terminal now tells me no further updates.

But, under "purchases" in the App Store app, its says 'update' next to garageband.

Go figure.

I'm haveing this too. Assuming it's an issue on Apples side I'm going to try tomorrow too

It frustrates me that Apple doesn't update it's System Status page when these things happen. They're supposed to, but most of the time when there are obvious glitches (like now) they pretend everything is fine and dandy and it's all in the green. What's the point of implementing these systems if you don't use them correctly?

Apple aren't the only company guilty of this, it's prevalent across the industry.

This with a reboot worked for me....

rm ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist
rm ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.storeagent.plist

This also worked for me.

A very helpful guy over on the Apple community found a fix that worked for me.
Have a look HERE

And mine suddenly stopped working - I'd say it may be a problem on Apple's side of things.

I know this is an old thread, but I had this problem, and I fixed it by simply adding a new Network location in the System Preferences. I can't figure out why it should matter, since all of the settings are the same (I checked), but hey, I'm not complaining.

Cheers.
