App Store problem with Yosemite

Question

After installing Yosemite, the App Store told me I had 5 updates waiting:
In a box by itself at the top, it showed iTunes.
Then in a single box below it, it listed: iPhoto, Pages, Numbers, and Keynote.
I clicked "update all" and it started at the bottom of the list, and worked upwards to iPhoto.  For the bottom three I got a message in red saying it couldn't do the update, I should go to the "Purchases" page for the update.  Then it stopped on iPhoto.   I left the mac for over an hour, and when I returned, the spinning cursor was still spinning, and nothing else had happened.  I quit the App Store and rebooted so that nothing else was running, and started App Store again.  It still tells me that I have 5 updates, but now the "Updates" window is empty, and once again App Store has stopped responding.
I'm assuming there is a config file somewhere that's messed up, but I have no idea how to fix it.
Help, please!
Walt

com.apple.driver.AppleKeyStore (2) <19 18 8 7 6 5 4 3 1>
=====================================
This all looks like information that would be useful to someone who had the source code for the app, or at least an intimate knowledge of the OS, but not to ordinary users.  I did notice a lot of "server time-out" errors but I have no idea what I can do about them, if even they are important.
Thanks for helping out with this.
