Unable to update iphoto app

I tried to manually update the iPhoto by downloading the iPhoto 9.2.2 dmg file but I am getting this message,"The version of iPhoto installed on this Mac must be updated through the Mac App Store. Check the Mac App Store to see if an update is available." Does anyone know how to update the iphoto app thru the app store

Your Mac came with Mac OS X Lion and the iLife suite preinstalled. Did you ever accept the iLife apps into your Mac App Store account? If not, that is why you are having issues with upgrading.
One thing that you can try. Do you find this file on your Mac?
Macintosh HD/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/adoption.plist
If so, delete this file, restart your Mac and try downloading the software again following the Lion reinstallation instructions for the iLife apps.

  • After updating to  Mavericks, I have been unable to update iphoto, and when I attempt to, it says that These apps were already assigned to another Apple ID, and they will be available in that Apple ID's Purchases list.

    After updating to  Mavericks, I have been unable to update iphoto, and when I attempt to, it says that These apps were already assigned to another Apple ID, and they will be available in that Apple ID's Purchases list. But no other appleID has ever been used on my computer, how could this be resolved?

    Contact App Store support. There's a link on the right hand side of the App Store Window. They're the only ones who can sort out account issues.

  • I upgraded to Mavericks, and now I am unable to update iPhoto. Please advise.

    I searched thru the posts, found and tried the Sharing Prefernce solution, as well as attempted signing out and signing in of the App store, but I am still unable to update iPhoto after installing Mavericks. Anyone have another solution?

    What version of iPhoto did you have before upgrading to Mavericks?  This screenshot shows which previous versions of iPhoto are compatible with Mavericks.  It also indicates which versions qualify for a free upgrade to iPhoto 9.5.1 and which require a purchase:
    Note 1:  every day more users are reporting problems with iPhoto 8.1.2 so I've included it in the non compatible category.
    Note 2:  If your previous version of iPhoto was iPhoto 7 (08) or earlier you'll need to download and run the iPhoto Library Upgrader 1.1 application on the library before opening it with iPhoto 9.5.1.

    And is there any way to sync all my purchases and accounts to just have one... It is a bit stupid that you dont even get a list of something of what account you may of used, or some kind of hint, so you could log on to the right account. I am really stuck ...
    Please Advise......

    You can't merge accounts. But you can check your purchase history:

  • HT204152 I am unable to update my App  store Updations. the reason being billing problem asking to update payment method.many times i updated my credit card details but refusing from the system .how can i update my app store updations like  Face book etc.

    I am unable to update my App  store Updations. the reason being billing problem asking to update payment method.Many a  times i updated my credit card details but refusing from the system .how can i update my app store updations like  Face book etc....Using ! phone 6plus  .IOS8.3

    What do you mean by 'refusing from the system', if you are getting an error message then what does it say ?
    For a credit card to have a chance of being accepted it needs to be registered to the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, and have been issued by a bank in the country where you and your iTunes account are. If it is and if you are getting a 'declined' message then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes Support (these are user-to-user forums) and see if they know why it's being declined : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
    If when trying to download you are getting a message about a 'problem with a previous purchase' then that implies that iTunes wasn't able to collect the money for your last purchase. If that is the case then you won't be able to download anything else (including app updates) until you've paid off what you owe : Pay an unpaid balance in the iTunes Store - Apple Support
    If you aren't getting the 'problem with a previous purchase' message then try logging into your account (not when trying to download something) and see if you get the 'none' option so that you can remove the card's details and be able to download updates to your apps : Change or remove your payment information from your iTunes Store account (Apple ID) - Apple Support

    Hello wfordnfl,
    You might try completely signing out of your Apple ID on the affected devices, then signing back in.

  • I am unable to update my apps in IPAD1.  The App icon lists the available updates but seems to be frozen.

    I am unable to update my apps in IPAD 1.  The App icon lists the updates but appears to be frozen.  The individual app icons show the space where "waiting" usually appears and do not work.  If I touch the apps icons, I get a message that states..."Unable to download. Do you want to try again." (or something similar).

    See if this helps. Reboot your router - unplug it from power for about 30 seconds and then plug it back in again. Reboot/reset your iPad as well and then try again.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • I am unable to update my apps as for different app updates it ask password for different apple IDs

    I am unable to update my apps as for different app updates it ask password for different apple IDs. About these many IDs i am unaware.

    You only can update those Apps, if you know the Passwords from the AppleIDs, which were used for purchase.
    If you´re unable to enter these Passwords you can´t update them.
    You can delete those Apps from your device and purchase & download them again with your own known AppleID.
    There is no other Way to get them updated. Because you are not the owner of those Apps.

    Hey there Tonyaokb,
    It sounds like you are trying to update some of your apps and when you tap the update button, the update does not happen. I recommend starting by closing the running apps on the phone:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    When you have done that, sign out of your iTunes account in Settings > iTunes and App Stores, and restart the phone and try to update them again:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If the issue persists I would next verify that you can find it in your purchased history with ths article:
    Tap App Store.
    Make sure you're signed in with the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.
    Tap Updates.
    Tap Purchased on the resulting screen.
    So that you can then delete the app and re install it:
    Reinstall the affected app
    Remove the app from your device and reinstall it:
    Tap and hold any app icon on the Home Screen until the icons start to wiggle and show a small "x" in the top-left corner of the app.
    Tap the "x" in the corner of the app you want to delete.
    Tap Delete to remove the app and all of its data from your device.
    Press the Home button.
    Go to the App Store.
    Search for the app and download it again.
    Note: If it's a paid app, make sure you're using the iTunes account you purchased the app with originally. If it isn't, you may be asked to purchase the app again. Learn more about downloading previously purchased items.
