I need help.
The same thing is happening to me, but I went another step in the wrong direction.
I logged in with my iTunes account and downloaded evernote.
Directly after, I was browsing the home page of the app store, I clicked on the Keynote icon and Keynote began to download at that instant.
I quickly paused the download, but the damage was done. My account was charged for a $19.99 program I already have installed on my computer.
I would really like to get my iTunes account credited.
ANY help would be greatly appreciated
(PS. I DO have the current updated version of iWork)
thanks

Particularly when some apps that can be used in business/professional situations go exclusively Mac App Store. Like Pixelmator.
My hunch on this is you may have to wait for Lion because it will allow folders and you can name them as such.
If you click on the installed button in the store it doesn't do anything. I was curious if it would put Aperture in my purchased log even though I've had Aperture for about 6 months now.
You need to do a software update and it will get you to 10.6.6. Once your system updates and reboots you will see it in your dock.
cheers.... had a to google the update as it was never offered in software update
I haven't had a chance to try this out, still at work (and will be for most of the day).
Just wondering if the App Store login tied to iTunes Store login (other than just being the same Apple ID login). Because I'm curious to know if iTunes/App Store gift cards will work with the Mac App Store (either now or eventually down the road)...

Just wasted an hour
After scanning through everything the only App I think is fairly priced and would have bought is iPhoto. (but I already have iLife 11)
Many of the programs are simply overpriced. Many of the free programs are "lite" or require you to pay one way or another. Of course people need to make money, I just have an issue with things being advertised as free when they are not.
Aperture may also be a good value at $79, but I just got Adobe Elements 9 for $40
Maybe there will be better Apps and prices in the future.
Apple is know for their expertise in keeping things simple. I see these App stores as getting to be overwhelming and out of control.
I don't know how they will do it, but I think at some point, they will have to scale back.

I wonder if it's not recognising iWork 09 because 11 is coming soon?
Or it may just be a bug and iWork 11 is still far off

i have iHomework
and so does the app store. This app for mac was free but now it cost $3 on the app store. I will like to have the app store version so would it charge me?

Ahh, bang goes the theory then!
Oh well, I bought pages from the App store anyway, I hope Apple will 'Update' me to Pages 11 for free. Doubt it though.

Anyone getting the issue of it locking up every time you do something? I hit download Twitter, Freeze.. Updates, Freeze.. Ugh
Quality apple product
Again another issue that hasn't happened to me. Everything so far works perfect.
Yes, You can use iTunes gift cards or regular gift certificates by clicking the "Redeem" link in the Quick Links section of the App Store.

No it won't - it was purchased by different means, different license, different rights management. It even won't offer you updates - guess it is just a reminder that you already have it.
