I can't update software that someone else installed through Mac App Store
Mac App Store: On my Mac, someone installed Xcode from the App Store, using their own account.
Now I can't update it. After removing it, I can't install it.
When I try, I get this alert:
You have updates available for other accounts
Sign in to [other person's email address] to update applications for that account.
I don't have information about the other person's account and am unable to obtain it.
Even if I could get their account information, I want to get the software under my account, not the other person's account.
I looked at multiple discussions about resolving this, but every one I saw was about problems involving only one account.
Mac OS X 10.7.4, App Store Version 1.1.2 (92.8)
🙂 After reading similar discussions, I thought I should add this: Unless you have a time machine for rent, telling me not to have someone else install apps on my mac isn't going to help here.
Sooner or later this will happen to others. A solution is what I'm looking for.
Thanks
