App Store always shows Motion needs updating...

I've had this problem for months now.  The App Store always shows Motion needs updating.  But I have updated Motion (I check to make sure I have the current version). 
I've ignored this problem up until now because Motion works fine and I do have the current version.  I figured that sooner or later Apple would issue some fix, or that it would disappear on a future Motion or OS update.  Well, I just updated to Mountain Lion yesterday, and I've updated Motion at least a couple of times, and the problem continues.
And now it's getting stuck in a loop showing I need to update to 5.0.7, even though I've updated.  But now when I look in the update section of the App Store, it shows that it is possible to update (even though I have the current version).  If I click "Update" again, it starts downloading and then starts endlessly installing it, but never finishes.
Any idea what's going on here?  Any suggestions?
Thanks!

I did speak with Apple support last night.  I uninstalled & reinstalled, and now I have the current version and it is working fine. 
However, I'm still having the same problem I've been having for months:  The App Store shows that I need to update Motion, even though I already have the current version.  I don't know what is causing that, especially after I uninstalled and reinstalled.

    Hi
    I have a problem with your app store, always I want to update a new app, I want to know what Schiffer and novelty app! Most of my applications are in English, and they write what the improvement and renewal are written in English, and I do not speak the language! I try to copy the text, color (gray) is not successful, the variance can it, so we can copy the text and translate?
    I thank you for your help, it can help to humanize

    You are right, but how could i send it to Apple? when the phone company first replaced my iphone they had in stock alots of iphones and they just sent mine back to Apple and gave me a new one, so all i did is to give them my phone, but now how could i sent it to Apple? and i cant send it by myself, and the store wont do that, its a lost for them.. so sending it to Apple wasnt an option from the begining.
    and for the record, i dont think the store where i bought it is an authorized shop.. its just a store who boughts phone's from Apple in a low price and sells it in much more money..

  • Mac app store always shows updates for not installed apps

    Hi,
    I've got fresh install of 10.7.1 (replaced hdd, installed via Restore OS usb flash drive). Everything works properly, except of Mac App Store.
    For some reason it shows me as updates all apps I ever purchased. Installed and updated to latest version, as well as not installed yet.
    Any way to fix this?
    Thanks!

    App Store support. There is troubleshooting and a contact link.

  • App Store always shows Account INformation

    Since the last update, iTunes dumps me into the Account Information page every time I enter my password. I see this whether I'm upgrading an app or purchasing something new. There is no warning message on the Account Information page, and I have checked all of the information for accuracy. The purchase or update never happens, and I have to start all over again as you can't navigate back.
    Is this a bug, or is the iTunes Store just getting more annoying?

    I remember seeing this once long ago. Drove me nuts. Got fixed when I opened iTunes when I got home (there had been an update) and I was given the accept terms junk. Once I did, then synced, it all worked again.

  • App store says there is one update but none need updating

    I just upgraded to Yosemite and under my Apple menu, the App Store shows there is one update needing to be done but when I open the App Store, it shows none need updating.
    This is a week-old MacBook Pro with 2.8Ghz i5, 8GB, and 512 SSD.

    Next time that happens while on WiFi, turn WiFi off in settings, wait about 30 seconds or so, then turn WiFi back on. Sometimes you have to do this two or three times, but this fixes that issue as well.

  • Selling Macbook- App Store still shows my app updates

    I'm selling my macbook pro and have signed out of the app store, but the app store still shows that 4 updates are available (for me, not for the new owner)- any way to 'reset' the app store on the mac?
    Everything else has been reset: itunes, user accounts, etc.

    Do yourself, and the buyer a favor and do the smart thing..erase the drive and reinstall the OS before selling it.

  • App Store keeps showing update for program that has been uninstalled

    The App Store keeps showing an update available for Virus Barrier Express even after I have removed it completely from my system.  Going into the Purchased list shows it is not installed.  When the application was installed it always said there was an update.  No matter how many times you clicked Update and allowed it to download and install the update, the App Store still showed the update needed to be installed.
    On another machine it constantly shows an update for one of the installed applications but clicking the update button doesn't clear the update once it's been downloaded and installed.
    Deleting the App Store preference hasn't resolved the issue.  Enabling the debug menu and using the Reset Applications option has not either.

    I found out what was causing my problem (can't re-install an app that I deleted and which was purchased from the App Store). The app I was trying to re-install under Lion was Apple's Compressor v4 which is only available through the Mac App Store. However, even though I was booting from my one-and-only copy of Lion the Mac App Store was apparently getting confused by an old copy of Compressor v3.5 that was installed on another boot disk that I maintain for Snow Leopard. I'm running on a quad-disk Mac Pro so all four disks mount whenever I start the system. In any case, all I had to do was unmount the other disks and the Mac App Store then allowed me to install Compressor v4 on my Lion system.
    The reason I was able to pinpoint this solution is that I wanted to run another Mac App Store app (Find Any File) and even though the Store said it was "Installed" I couldn't find the application in either the Lion Application folder or within LaunchPad. I then realized that the App Store was referencing the copy of that app that was stored on my Snow Leopard disk and unmounting that disk finally allowed me to install both Compressor v4 and Find Any File on my actual/current boot disk (i.e. Lion).
    Now, the odd thing about this problem is that Compressor v4 wasn't installed on any of my disks, it was the older version of Compressor (v3.5.3) that apparently was preventing me from installing the new version 4 on my Lion system. In fact, Compressor v3.5.3 crashes immediately under Lion so that version of the app isn't even usable when I'm running Lion.
    So, if you're having a problem with installation or app removal or updates from the Mac App Store try dismounting any other disks which you might have attached to your Mac and see it that solves your problem. If it does solve the problem then you can almost be assured that the cause of your difficulty is some file that is present on one of your other disks (i.e. app may not even be on your current boot disk).

  • Tried to open a file I created in Numbers a while ago which I modified on 11/4/13 and got a message that I needed a newer version of Numbers.  When I went to the Mac App Store it shows that the new version is already installed.  Any suggestions?

    Tried to open a file I created in Numbers a while ago, which I modified on 11/4/13, and got a message that I needed a newer version of Numbers.  When I went to the Mac App Store it shows that the new version is already installed and there doesn't seem to be a way to reinstall it.  When I checked "About Numbers" on my MacBook it shows "Numbers '09 version 2.3".  Any suggestions as to how I can get the new version installed?

    Are you launching Pages from an icon in your Dock? Installing the update does not change the Dock icons & it does not remove the older versions. Go to your Applications folder & launch the new Pages from there.

  • I updated iPhoto but the app store still shows that red 1, how can I remove it?

    I updated iPhoto but the app store still shows that red 1, how can I remove it? I can't right click, i cant do anything to get rid of it.

    Nope that's not it, I always use that particular ID, but the @me.com portion of the Apple ID is missing when trying to download from the App Store on the Phone.
    It is grayed out inside the App Store app so I can't change it there and I already changed it in the settings.
    The entire Apple ID is fine in the Settings so I don't get why the App Store ID is different and missing information.

  • When i go to the apps store and click the download updates a users name i don't recognize shows up how do i get rid of it

    when i go to the apps store and open upgrades to download a user id shows up that i don't recognize how do i get rid of it

    You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
    Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store alert. For example, the App Store could prompt you to update "Angry Birds" or "Twitter," but the hacked app could be "Final Cut Pro." Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you must carry out a systematic search with Spotlight.
    1. Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
    kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    2. In the Finder, press command-F to open a search window, or select
              File ▹ Find
    from the menu bar. In the search window, select
              Search: This Mac
    from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu of search criteria, initially showing Kind. From that menu, select
              Other...
    A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select
              Raw Query
    as the criterion, then click OK or press return.
    Now there will be a text box to the right of the menu of search criteria. That's where you enter the raw search query. Click in that box and paste the text you copied earlier by pressing command-V.
    3. The search window will now show all the App Store products that are installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
    4. At least one of the apps in the Spotlight search results is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash, after quitting it if it's running. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
    5. Quit and relaunch the App Store. Test.
    If you find these instructions confusing, ask for an alternative method.

  • I am very confused. When I wanna to update my apps in app store, it shows the account which is my iPhone one is not my iPad one. how can I reset to my iPad account?

    I am very confused. When I wanna to update my apps in app store, it shows the account which is my iPhone one is not my iPad one. how can I reset to my iPad account?

    And I am very confused by your query. Your iTunes account is the same on all devices - unless of course you have multiple accounts to begin with.
    If you do have another Apple ID that you use for the iPad purchases, you can sign out of the account that is on the iPad in Settings>Store.
    Perhaps a few more details from you could clear up the confusion???

    You can probably change the ID in the "iTunes and App stores" settings on the iPad....click on the wrong account ID , select sign out, then log in with your own ID, I have not done this but I think it works.....
    but I would be more inclined to to the factory reset and start afresh.

  • App Store icon shows updates available, but all apps up to date

    Just bought Iphone 5c, second day, App store icon shows updates available, but PC, store and other Iphones show none.  Tried resetting, updates to ios 8.02, synching, going through each app individually to see if there is an update, no luck.
    Wnen I reset, the icon shows a badge with 7 updates available.  I opened App Store, bottom right (update icon) showed the same.  Tapped it, the update screen appears (as normal), and the 7 on the update icon disappeared, screen says UPDATES All apps are up to date.  However, on the home screen, the App store badge still shows 7 updates.
    Anyone else having the same prob?  What is the fix?

    Tried that, tries a soft reset, and a hard reset, no luck.  Funny thing is, my other iphones and IPad work fine, its just the Iphone 5.

  • Have Yosemite. App Store only showing Mavericks update

    Hello!
    I've been on Yosemite since it launched publicly, but the App Store has only ever shown updates for Mavericks and have never seen the 10.10.1 update show up.
    When I click 'UPDATE' on the 10.9.5 update, nothing happens.
    The About screen isn't bugged either, as I do have all the new features of Yosemite and use them regularly.
    Any idea what's going on here?
    Thanks!

    Hmmm, never mind, the problem has mysteriously fixed itself thankfully :-)
