Hi.
I have a serious problem here. I hope against hope that somebody will be able to help me, though I highly doubt it.
I have a Lenovo Desktop computer running 10.11.6 currently. I have been using this for awhile now (since 10.9 at least). Without too many problems (iMessage isn't working but that's because I CBA to make it work as I don't really need it).
However a few weeks (months? I forgot exactly) ago there was a storm that fried too much equipment at our house, including (or so I thought) my Hackintosh. But it started anyway and after checking and re-checking I found out that nothing else was broken than the on-board Ethernet. Well no big deal I have a bunch of USB-Ethernet adapters. I stuck one in and continued to use the computer. After some time I noticed that I get an error each time I reboot ("cannot connect to iCloud...") but everything seemed to work still, even iCloud so I didn't make a big deal out of it.
But then I noticed updates didn't work. Third-Part ones. Apple (OS) updates worked just fine so I shrugged it off and thought I'd update them later. Now however I had a need to buy an app from the store and noticed I can't. Store seems to work, but everytime I try to buy an app, I get an error "An unexpected error occured while signing in. Your device of computer could not be verified. Contact support for assistance." And the "Purchased" tab shows me the "You need to me signed in to view..." -text
And no matter what I do, I can't use the App Store but to update Apple's own updates. This became infuriating since I noticed macOS Sierra needs me to be logged in to upgrade.
So now I can't upgrade to macOS Sierra, nor can I update 3rd part apps or buy ANY new apps at all.
Otherwise network works perfectly tough.
Is there anything I can do? (I've tried multiple different USB-Ethernet adapters and none of them work, so)
