"You have updates available for other accounts

"To update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it."

Restart your Mac and follow the instructions here > Mac App Store: How to resume interrupted downloads

You have updates available for other accounts

"To update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it."

A recommendation. When upgrading to a new OS X, if it can be avoided, do not interfere with the installation.
