When Apple update give me a sign (update remote desktop client 3.9.3) and using macosx 10.11.6 and not having the software about "remote desktop"., the update still persist in my "Updates" tag of the App store program.
How to delete that annoying update?

Remote Desktop Client is present on every Mac. Keeping it up-to-date is a good idea, because you may need it when you suddenly need to share certain information among your Macs. Installing it later would be a pain.
Hello Grant,
On mac app store under the tag "Updates" the update of the remote desktop client 3.9.3 is still remaining. the update will start and than suddenly abort. So the progress bar stops at 0 bite of the whole 8.8 Mb and lacks updating. I am using macosx 10.11.6 on a macbook-pro from 2009. what could be the problem, now I know from you that the remote desktop client is a part of the osx system of El Capitan.
Hello to myself: I've just solve the problem. This is what the problem solver is in Dutch (Nederlands) and Englisch:
Indien software updates voor osx niet werken via App-store:
Dit ligt aan de volgende toegangslokatie en de intern beschadigde folder of file op je mac:
/var/folders/zz/zyxvpxvq6csfxvn_*
zorg dat toegangsrechten op write/read staan voor _softwareupdates en zorg dat deze user er maar 1 x in staat in âtoon infoâ vervolgens kun je hem resetten door het volgende commando in terminal:
sudo chown -R _softwareupdate:_softwareupdate /var/folders/zz/zyxvpxvq6csfxvn_*
Bij mij werkte dit en de OSX-software updates werden weer doorgevoerd
Een x-tra item als voorgaande niet werkt:
Try this:
In terminal, either copy and paste the following, or type it in. (the last character is a lower case L.)
Code:
sudo softwareupdate -l
Enter your admin account password when prompted. This runs the command line Software Update app (which is what the App Store application is actually doing) and should provide a little more detail. The lower case L only lists the updates available. If you want to go ahead and install all the updates that it finds, you'd enter:
Code:
sudo softwareupdate -ia
again entering your password if prompted, and restarting the computer when prompted.
You may also want to enter this:
Code:
defaults read /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate
This error sounds as if your computer may not be looking at the default Software Update Server, and this last command will report which server it's set to use.
Bye to all!đ
defaults read /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate
if the response is an indication that the item is not found, check the spelling and spacing carefully, or cut and paste the command as shown. If still not found that not an error -- you are simply using all defaults.
Sounds like a glitch in the App Store. I wonder if you installed it directly, if that would remove it from the App Store.
see if you have any better luck installing it this way:
Download: Apple Remote Desktop 3.9.3 Client
.
Hi,
After Apple "give me a sign," you have to actually perform the update before it will be moved from "Updates Available" to "Updates installed in the last 30 days."
Hi also,
The update will stuck. Progress bar stops at 0 bite of the 8.8 MB.
I don't know what happens. Other updates of bought app's will do fine from the mac app store (dutch version).

That will do. It seems Apple update (auto) had a glitch with that item. Other items (apps) will auto-update yhanks for the manually link, and I've downloaded it and it works!! đ
Update not possible
