I see there was a recent iBooks update but it isn't showing up on my MacBook Pro running the latest update of Mavericks. In fact iBooks doesn't show up in the App Store and doesn't appear in the list of purchases! How can I update?
iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.4), 27 inch i7 2010 iMac with 12 GB RAM
It's built-in to Mavericks, so it won't show in the Mac App Store as an app for downloading nor in your list of purchases. In iBooks if you do iBooks > About iBooks that shows it as still being version 1 ? If it does then does clicking the Apple icon top left and selecting Software Update find any updates for your Mac ?
It shows up as 1.0 and does not show up in the updates, which is what I tried to say in the first note. How can I update if it isn't the current version and doesn't show up in the updates?
It should show in the Updates tab if there is an update available for it, as far as I can see the update wasn't limited to just some Macs : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5326
You are signed in the same account that you downloaded Mavericks, and does the Store > Check For Unfinished Downloads menu option find it ?
It's not available as a stand-alone download from Apple (not that I've found anyway), as far as I know it can only be updated via the Updates tab in the Mac App Store, or by OS X updates. I'll keep looking, but if anybody else knows what the problem is or how to download an update if its not showing in Updates then they'll hopefully reply.

Yes, signed into the same account (only one I have). It doesn't show up as an unfinished download nor does it show up when I ask for a softwareupdate list in the terminal mode.
Spotlight indexing is not disabled on the boot volume, so that isn't it either. I appreciate the suggestions but it is starting to look like it is something deep in the OS that isn't working and may have to reinstall Mavericks from the recovery partition.
I reinstalled Mavericks using the recovery partition method but iBooks is still at version 1.0 and doesn't show up for software update. So I guess I will just have to use version 1.0 in perpetuity??
The iBooks 1.01 update isn't showing up on my computer.
