This update is for an app downloaded with a different Apple ID. Sign in with that Apple ID and try again.
I have one and only one Apple ID - the one I have used for each and every purchase since the advent of Apple ID. Why can I not update Pages?
MacBook Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9), 1TB HD, 8GB Ram
Go to setting>general>storage & icloud usage>manage storage>this iphone>show all apps then turn off the app you want to get and delete it then go refresh the app store and u should be able to download the app
Okay I found a solution that worked for me.
Uninstalled Numbers Completely.
Reinstalled Numbers from the app store. Paid the $19.99.
Problem solved. I love my Mac again.
I have versions iPhoto 9.4.3 and iMovie 9.0.9.
Someone else's solution was to uninstall the app and purchase again from the app store. It's certainly not expensive and if that is the best solution I'll take it, but maybe I'm being the archetypal mean Scotsman by thinking I shouldn't have to pay for an update to something that came with the computer if the problem is not of my making.
powerbook 1701 mentions seeing an App store update 1.0 maybe I "can't see for looking" but I can't find that. Anyway as I upgraded to Mavericks less than 24 hours ago and have done a software update surely everything - except these two apps!!- is up to date.
I have the same problem but with iPhoto and iMovie. I don't mind paying from them but can't find out how on the app store - there eems no way to buy them, only to upgrade, which it disallows because of my ID confusion.
Any ideas?
The issue is that these apps aren't part of your Mac App Store (MAS) account for one of two reasons, your Mac shipped with OS X Snow Leopard 10.6 and these are not MAS versions of these apps because they came on the install DVD and can't be updated by the MAS. In which case the upgrade to the Mavericks versions would be a paid upgrade. Or your Mac came withOS X Lion 10.7 or newer and these are MAS versions, but you made the mistake of not accepting them into your MAS account when you first set up the Mac as new.
You might be able to delete these copies from your Mac, use OS X Recovery to install new copies, accept them into your MAS account and then get the free upgrade to the Mavericks versions.
OS X Recovery -
the MAS update vesion 1 came in the form of a software update on mac os SL. I noticed it when running software update in preferences. I was just saying it could be a help.
Also, this might help:
I have the same problem where I cannot delete the annoying "update available" on the app store. I think what happened was one of my relatives used thier Apple ID to install Angry Birds on my computer. I am not in contact with them anymore.
If an app isn't actually installed on your Mac, you shouldn't be getting an update alert for the app.
Correct...So why am I?
Angry Birds shows up often when you have installed a pirated/hacked app.
I have the same problem with both my Mac and iPhone. Not sure yet about others, but now I cant update or even reinstall FREE apps, like IMDB for iOS and Messenger for Telegram under latest Mac OS X.
What happened?
Having the same issue since this morning, I can't update any Apps, whether paid or free, on Mac and iPhone. Success!
