I just got a new Mac mini and I'm trying to update Apple apps as requested, e.g. Pages, Numbers etc. App store asks me to sign in to iCloud which is fine, then gives me 2 messages: Your request is temporarily unable to be processed. Followed swiftly. Could not assign applications to your account. Any thoughts on how to resolve these issues? Mac: Troubleshooting Uninstall/Reinstall. If you are having an issue and haven't tried reinstalling recently, try uninstalling the program and reinstalling using the steps located at the bottom of the following two articles: Uninstall; Reinstall. Other Things to Try. If uninstalling and reinstalling did not help, please try. Hence, as the cheapest way to go I decided that the Mac Mini was the best bet. After all, I have no intention to use the thing for anything other than Apple App development. And if it doesn’t meet my needs I have 14 days to return it. I was a bit surprised that the Mac Mini doesn’t even come with a keyboard or a mouse. The Mac Mini was $649.
