I have updated Keynote, Numbers, Pages and iMovie to the latest versions but after a few days the same Apps show up as needing updated. The versions are the same as I previously updated. What is going on? Is the App Store getting confused because I still have the iWork '09 versions installed?
MacBook Pro (15-inch Early 2011), Mac OS X (10.7.3)
I have the same problem - did you get a resolution tho this ?

Hi Bruce,

No, and do not delete iWork '09!
I have updated Keynote, Numbers, Pages and iMovie to the latest versions
Your profile shows OS X 10.7.3. Is this correct? It seems that if iWork '09 is on your computer and you have updated , you must have updated to OSX Mavericks 10.9.x and iWork '13.
the same Apps show up as needing updated
What message is telling you that you need to update? Does this message appear when you try to open an iWork app?

Ian.
I currently have 10.9.1 installed and the following may have solved my problem. I was told by Adam Christianson, of Maccast Podcast, that the updater database uses Spotlight. I there rebuild the Spotlight Database and so far I have not seen my problem reoccur. I hope this solves my update problem.
That seems to have worked for me too - thanks Bruce 🙂

Thanks for the tip. It seems that Spotlight is a key player in this update 🙂.
Numbers 3.0.1 is in your Applications Folder. Numbers '09 (unless you deleted it) is in a folder called iWorks '09 inside your Applications folder. Both will run at the same time.
This has been the solution in this forum up until now:
"Drag icons of both versions to the Dock. Right click on each in turn and Options > Keep in Dock".
But your revelation gives a new light (and food for thought). Thanks

Ian.
