Hello Paul,

Try going to the purchases tab, then interact with the cell that says 
Installed. You should hear that the installed button is dimmed. Now, try 
hitting Option-Space. This overwrites the behaviour of OS X and forces the app 
to reinstall if it is not already. This also works on applications you have 
already installed and register correctly. When you have hit Option-Space, you 
can stop interacting with the cell and VO-left then right. It should then say 
that the button is now "Pause."


Regards,
Nicolai
