App updates are not showing up in iTunes

Same here for India. MacBook Air OS X Mavericks 10.9, iTunes 11.1.3... Have been updating apps on my iPhone 4S but no updates show up on my Air, so I'm locating the apps manually in the iTunes Store and updating them.

Very tedious! What's wrong Apple?

I only have one iTunes account.

I was having the exact same problem (stopped showing app updates after 12/12 - I'm in the USA).

Anyway this is how I fixed it...

I had a number of really old apps purchased under an OLD (ok ancient) Apple ID. I went through and trashed every single app that was purchased with the OLD ID. Once all 'those' apps were removed (leaving only my current iTunes Apple ID pruchased apps) the" Check for App Updates" option worked!!!

How do you find apps that are purchased under a previously used Apple ID?

iTunes > Apps > List (view) > sorted by Purchase Date.

Find the oldest one, then right click and "Get Info". Look for Apple ID in the window - if it's your current Apple ID hit the "Previous" button.

Continue hitting "Previous" (letting the Get Info window refresh) until you find one of your Apps purchased with your old Apple ID.

Once you find one, close the Get Info window, then delete that App from iTunes. (I sent the apps to the trash because I have backups)

Continue through the ENTIRE list. It's important to go through the entire list because recently updated apps under the old Apple ID will be up higher on the list. Yes it's a pain, but it was worth getting iTunes back in order (showing available App updates).

Again, I was having this problem, but removing apps under my old Apple ID resolved this issue...

Sounds good..but I for instance only had one Apple ID ..

Hrm, that doesn't really work too well considering I have over 10,000+ apps. And a mix of apps from my US account and my Canadian one.

And no, I'm not seeing any app updates for Canada, except this time it's on Windows as well. It feels like it's an Apple-iTunes thing more so than anything else...

@worf I hear ya. The apps under my old ID were not current so it didn't hurt to remove them (in my case).

If my memory serves me, this has happened before and it took Apple a few days to fix it on the store side of things. Hopefully it wont be much longer. I prefer to update via iTunes instead of directly on my devices.

Not sure why the steps I outlined above worked for me, especially since others with only one Apple ID are also having the problem.

Same problem here

I can see I have updates on the iPhone or the iPad but nothing shows on iTunes

If I go and check a single app that I know has an update

the app store show the button update, I click and downloads the update

but in the update section there is nothing to update

I hope Apple will fix that soon

I always have ever had one AppleID...

Worked like a charm!

I have the same proble here in Hungary!

Please send a feedback to Apple asking to solve this problem

I already did!

Done!

Same problem here in Singapore. Like the others, the only way is to update the apps on my iPhone and iPad and sync them to my Mac.

Good idea !

Done !
