Billings stop working today, MAS asked for some password

[al404]

I used billings for a long time, i bought from MAS in 2012 did work until today, i opened yesterday without issue

I have latest version of OS X

today on boot i noticed that MAS asked me for login for fantastical or other app
when i try to open billings it just doesn't do anything not sure what is wrong but i really need this app at least to get al my recorded data out

i had on macbook too but did not use since long time, and it doesn't start there too
i try to uninstall and reinstall from purchased app but it did not fix

This is most likely a App Store issue... we have a lot of these since midnight (Europe)

i can't understand why if Mac App store is down or has an issue i can't open my app, that is pretty scary

Same problem here. If this problem isn't corrected VERY soon I won't ever buy anything from this goddamn Mac App Store.

with billings or other software?

MAS is not down, it's related to the 'receipts' which are included within apps from MAS. AFAIK some certificate has expired.
Hopefully they'll fix it for good, and it won't happen again.

This makes sense since is not happening with all apps, do Apple need to fix this or app developer?

today i have got issue with Paste an app that i purchased on may 2015, it keeps popping up that something is wrong with my license

Yup, Billings is not the only software affected, most of the Mac App Store apps are now broken. Check the discussion on this story for more help:

Some Mac App Store Apps 'Damaged' Due To Expired Security Certificate:

If you're on 10.7 or newer, you can probably fix it just by signing into the Mac App Store again and rebooting your computer. If you're on 10.6, and a Snow Leopard compatible version is still on the App Store, downloading it again should work. Otherwise - sorry, Apple just broke the apps your purchased, and Apple probably won't be fixing it. Try contacting App Store support, they might offer you a refund on the software you're now lost.

[If you're really stuck, try contacting the makers of your app directly - some will give you a non Mac App Store version instead.]
