I'm unable to update iPhoto and iMovie since I downloaded Maverick. How can I solve this?

I have been trying to download iMovie (currently 10.0.4) and iPhoto (currently 9.5.1) but the Apple Store never lets me do so. I am currently outside the U.S., where I purchased my laptop and I wonder how can I solve this. Thanks in advance for any help!
Here are the error messages:
I don't have any other Apple ID.
This laptop only has one user, and the software was included in the original purchase (so, no refund possible).
I tried many times.

Please test after each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved. Back up all data before making any changes. Keep in mind that no one here represents Apple or can help with customer-service issues.
Step 1
A purchased app can only be updated by signing in to the App Store with the same Apple ID that was originally used to buy it. There's no way around that limitation, which also applies to free apps. If you can't sign in with the buyer's ID, delete the app and reinstall it. You'll have to pay for it again, if applicable.
Step 2
If you get the alert when trying to update a bundled iLife app, select the Purchases page in the App Store and locate the app in your purchase history. If there's a button marked ACCEPT on the right, click it.
If you have a used Mac, the bundled apps were linked to the original owner's Apple ID and can't be transferred to you. Reportedly, customer service has issued redemption codes to some second owners who asked, but it's not guaranteed.
Step 3
If you're trying to update iLife or iWork apps that were installed from a purchased DVD, or if you have a refurbished Mac bought directly from Apple, contact App Store customer service for a redemption code. You may be asked for the part number of the DVD.
Step 4
From the App Store menu bar, select
Store ▹ View My Account
Enter your Apple ID password at the prompt. At the lower right corner of the window that opens, click the Reset button. Close the window.

Unable to update iPhoto and iMovie since Mountain Lion and Mavericks

It has been over a year since it happens, I was hoping it could be solved after i updated to the new mavericks system..
"This update is for an app downloaded with a different Apple ID. Sign in with that Apple ID and try again. "
It has not been bothering me since the mountain lion, because although iphoto can't be updated, I was still able to use them and save all my photos.
Now after the new system update, iPhoto can not be opened unless it is updated
I do not want to lose all my pictures and videos that i have been saving there for over more than a year.

It means what it says: The apps were bought or installed by someone with a different ID to yours. So, in effect, these are belong to that person and you can't update them.
This can arise if you've bought a second hand machine, or if you've bought an open box machine, or even if the Mac was set up for you by the shop where you bought it. Or, if you used one Apple ID to set up the machine and are using a different one now. Of course, it can also be caused by installing pirated software.
So, what to do:
Where did you get the machine? If it was second hand, or open box then you need to get back to the vendor.
If you used a different Apple ID then sign in with that one.
And, if the software is pirated then delete it and purchase legally.
Other than that:

Nobody can tell you anything without proper system info or other technical details. The simply answer probably is that you are running your system with insufficient user privileges and system restore or some security tools are blocking stuff/ erasing your install.

Unable to update iPhoto and iMovie. "Update Unavailable with This Apple ID"

I updated to Yosemite and all went well but for the message "Update Unavailable with This Apple ID" for the two apps iPhoto and iMovie. I have tried using the terminal window and used code that others have suggested and obtained a SmartSearch. I deleted everything in that folder and I still can't update these two apps. The other apps updated without problems. Thanks for any help.

For a couple of years now, the verson of the iLife apps that come preinstalled on new Macs are the Mac App Store (MAS) versions. MAS apps have the Apple ID that bought them encoded in the app as an anti-piracy scheme. Since these apps are preinstalled, before using any of the three apps, the new Mac owner must open the MAS, go to the Purchases pane and accept these apps into their MAS account. This allows the MAS to encode the owners Apple ID into the apps.
Failure to accept these apps into your account and have them encoded with your Apple ID before using one of them renders the apps "as is" and they cannot be updated or downloaded to another Mac. The only way that I know of to rectify the problem is to use OS X Recovery to erase the Mac and reinstall OS X and the iLife apps, so that the initial setup can be attempted again and the apps be accepted into the MAS account and encoded with the Apple ID.

Unable to update iphoto and imovie from app store

I just bought my mba. and I am getting up dates but when I got to iphoto and i movie I got the following error "You have updates available for other accounts" so it is telling me its for a different account. but it dont make sense.

I already checked that, and they dont show up on purchased side. I am providing one more phrase that comes up in the warning that may help.
"You have updates available for other accounts"
"To update this application sign into the account you used to purchase it"

I have an older MacBook Pro and my iPhoto and iMovie keep "quitting unexpectedly". How do I fix this?

Ever since I upgraded to Lion and whenever I plug in my iPhone 4S iPhoto starts up then shuts down "unexpectedly" and now I just tried opening iMovie, which I haven't opened in a while and it won't open either.

As far as I know. I haven't seen any updates for them and I have checked.
