Hi Matt,


I have the same problem on one of my two Macs, but I want to note that if you know which are the apps that should be updated (like iWork and iLife apps but also 3rd party apps like Pixelmator…), you can go on these apps page on the store by searching their names. There, you’ll be able to update them (The "Buy" button is replaced by an "Update" button).


This way, you won’t be stuck while waiting for this problem to be solved.


Hope this helps.

Interesting idea, but deleting the apple.storeagent helper folder in the cache didn't change things here.


I, too, do not see available updates in the Mac App Store, but only the listing of updates installed in the last 30 days.


After talking with an Apple support rep Wednesday, I both created an alternate admin account and booted into Safe Mode. In both cases, the Mac App Store correctly showed the available updates, and at least let me update iTunes. But after returning to the original user account, the problem remained. (The rep speculated that booting into Safe Mode would clear the cache, and thus resolve the issue. Nope.)


Frustrating. As someone else pointed out, one can cruise the Store for updates to third-party apps. But that's not possible for such things as future Mavericks security updates, iTunes updates and the like. Certainly not how it should work....
