I keep getting this message when I try to download from the Mac App Store:
"Your device or computer could not be verified. Contact support for assistance."

My reason, I suspect, is because I used the GM version of Lion to install instead of the retail version. However, I did this because people said they were exactly the same. I did buy the retail version, however since I upgraded on my laptop it won't let me redownload it. Anyone have any suggestions on how to resolve this? My specs are in my signature.

gm and retail are THE SAME! just stop using the GM word, same same same.
if you have problem, then it does not connected to the build, but to your configuration/setup.

most people have problems with app store because unfunctioning LAN, or it's not recognized as "Built in"
you can check it by going to /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.Plist (hope i spelled and located everything correctly)
from there find your ethernet device, and check if it recognized as built in. report back

[Blah101]

Ah I found my problem. I forgot to add EthernetBuiltIn as Yes to my com.apple.boot.plist

Thanks!

[AgentMax]

I added these line but my onboard interface is still not "built-in".

Any other solution?

[Noam AA]

you can try adding Device LAN0 to DSDT,
you need to search first in ioregistery where is you LAN (let say in my case i have P0P5-9 Devices,
and my ethernet is in: Device (P0P9)
so you need to insert method to the correct Device in DSDT (in my case it's: "Device P0P9")
the code you need to copy is

				Device (LAN0)
				{
					Name (_ADR, 0x00)
					Name (_PRW, Package (0x02)
					{
						0x09, 
						0x03
					})
					Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized)
					{
						Store (Package (0x02)
							{
								"location", 
								Buffer (0x02)
								{
									"1"
								}
							}, Local0)
						DTGP (Arg0, Arg1, Arg2, Arg3, RefOf (Local0))
						Return (Local0)
					}
				}

insert to where your ethernet is located using IOregistery

I found it as Device PEX4.

Now I asume I have to edit my dsdt.aml in the extra folder. How?

Using a Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD5.

EDIT:

OK, finally got it
Made a complete new DSDT with Auto Patcher
http://www.insanelym...howtopic=235523

working fine now

[justroach]

I am not getting any error whatsoever. I click on "Install" and the button switches back to the price with no error. I see no errors in system.log either. I have tried EFI strings, EthernetBuiltIn, removing NetworkPreferences.plist, removing interfaces from System Preferences, etc, etc. All with copious reboots. Anyone have any ideas?

[TH3L4UGH1NGM4N]

@justroach what board do you have and do you have a dsdt that you are using

[Firerose]

For those of you having issues actually downloading/buying an app there is a known bug that you have to use certain buttons else it does nothing. The buttons that work best are the little ones in the grid view all others are having issues. I had to look it up myself as I could click on install but the apps would just sit there and not do anything. Good luck with your apps.

I also have the App Store login problem. I can log into iTunes fine, but I can't login to the App Store.

I could login fine under Mac OSX 10.6.8 (although I had to initially delete my Network Preferences file under Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration and reboot to fix it under 10.6.8).

Anyone know how to fix it under Mac OSX Lion?

I am connecting via a Realtek USB wireless NIC, as my internal Wireless is not supported by Mac OS. I have the EthernetBuiltIn = Yes in my com.apple.boot.plist file, same setup as 10.6.8.

I have tried making a new Network Location as well, rather then using Automatic, but same issue.

Edit: I just fixed it, I read on another post somewhere about re-installing the wired Ethernet driver (even though I am using Wireless), so I got the Realtek Gigabit ethernet driver from Multibeast 3.7.3 and reinstalled, then followed the procedure of removing the preferences file and rebooting. I can now log in to the App Store

I'm desperately trying to fix this  issue :

I've a GA-EP35-DS3P, I have a DSDT generated with autopatcher.

Everything is working fine except App Store.

I've this for LAN0

				Device (LAN0)
				{
					Name (_ADR, Zero)
					Name (_PRW, Package (0x02)
					{
						0x0B, 
						0x04
					})
					Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized)
					{
						Store (Package (0x04)
							{
								"built-in", 
								Buffer (One)
								{
									0x01
								}, 

								"location", 
								Buffer (0x02)
								{
									"1"
								}
							}, Local0)
						DTGP (Arg0, Arg1, Arg2, Arg3, RefOf (Local0))
						Return (Local0)
					}
				}
			}

Any idea ?

In NetworkInterfaces.plist, i get :

		<dict>
			<key>Active</key>
			<true/>
			<key>BSD Name</key>
			<string>en0</string>
			<key>IOBuiltin</key>
			<false/>
			<key>IOInterfaceType</key>
			<integer>6</integer>
			<key>IOInterfaceUnit</key>
			<integer>0</integer>
			<key>IOMACAddress</key>
			<data>
			AB19Aert
			</data>
			<key>IOPathMatch</key>
			<string>IOService:/AppleACPIPlatformExpert/PCI0@0/AppleACPIPCI/PEX5@1C,5/IOPCI2PCIBridge/ethernet@0/com_lnx2mac_RealtekRTL81xx/IOEthernetInterface</string>
			<key>SCNetworkInterfaceInfo</key>
			<dict>
				<key>UserDefinedName</key>
				<string>Ethernet Adaptor (en0)</string>
			</dict>
			<key>SCNetworkInterfaceType</key>
			<string>Ethernet</string>
		</dict>

So, as I get :

			<key>IOBuiltin</key>
			<false/>

I understand my lag interface is not seen as built-in.

As Lion doesn't recognize Realtek 8169 anymore, I use lnx2mac driver, latest version.

I you've any idea, I will be pleased to try ;-)

Tyan S5397. No DSDT. Ethernet shows up as BuiltIn though.

[TH3L4UGH1NGM4N]

Well there's another work around that I tried myself that works

That topic post # 9 explains a solution using EFI studio to generate a string that you will add to your boot plist.
Try it out and see if it works out for you also

[chewara]

efi string combined with graphics and ethernet has worked for me

This worked for me too. Nothing else I'd tried did.

Many thanks,

OK, I tried the method from post#9 and got the EFI string. When I have just the EFI string in /Extra/com.apple.Boot.plist /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist says:

<key>BSD Name</key>
<string>en0</string>
<key>IOBuiltin</key>
<false/>

When I have the EFI string and EthernetBuiltIn=y I still get "false" for IOBuiltin.

When I remove the EFI string and have just EthernetBuiltIn=y /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist says:

<key>BSD Name</key>
<string>en0</string>
<key>IOBuiltin</key>
<true/>

Sweet! Right? No. App Store still doesn't work. Clicking Install changes the button back to the price and choosing Sign In... from the Store menu does nothing. No errors even in /var/log/system.log. This is the same on 2 different machines. A Tyan S5397 with on-board Intel NICs and an Intel S5520SC with a PCIe NIC.

It seems like there must be something else going one. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Try adding

<key>PciRoot</key>
<string>1</string>

to your /Extra/com.apple.Boot.plist(*). This is necessary in order for EthernetBuiltIn and GraphicsEnabler to work on many Gigabyte brand motherboards.

(*)note that this file must be named org.chameleon.Boot.plist if you're using the new Chameleon 2.0.

For those using "EFI" Device Properties String, don't add this flag as the Device Properties String should already contain the correct PCI Root.

That causes the system to not boot.

This also causes the system to not boot. You are the second person to mention "org.chameleon.Boot.plist", but the Chameleon 2.0 that I am using does not appear to recognize this file. I am using "RC5" from here:

http://www.insanelym...howtopic=227833

Should I be using a different one?

[Gringo Vermelho]

RC5 is short for "Release Candidate 5", a work in progress. Last week there was a feature freeze, some final adjustments and Chameleon 2.0 was finally released.

If you can't boot with PciRoot set to 1, that most likely means that your PCI Root is really 0. Chameleon tries to read this value from your DSDT, and if it can't determine whether it should be 1 or 0, it is set to 0.
I don't know about the deeper technical details but I do know that this value needs to be correct in order for Chameleon's EthernetBuiltIn and GraphicsEnabler to work.

I don't think updating to Chameleon 2.0 will change anything for you regarding this issue.

did you try DSDT injection for you lan?
