Apps not updating since OS x yosemite

I have iMac mid2011 model, and upgraded to Yosemite from Mavericks about a month ago. Since doing this, I am having trouble updating most of my apps when updates come along. Particularly iPhoto and iMovie (plus other apps). I have tried to do as is suggested - to go through 'purchases' on the App Store, but I just get a message of "an error has occurred" and nothing else...I have tried to shut everything down and restart the computer, but has made no difference. I am currently running version 10.10.2, which is the latest version.
I went to go to OS X support, but they want to charge me for it.....so any solutions anyone may have, I would eagerly appreciate it. Thanks.

If you have got an external drive, you can try copying iPhoto and iMovie there, remove the external drive and try installing iMovie and iPhoto as new apps instead of updating them.
In the picture I see that iPhoto is not being updated. You can also try restarting again and trying to update only iPhoto

  • Apple apps not launching since OS X Yosemite (Macbook Pro medio 2009)

    Hi,
    Since I downloaded OS X Yosemite from the App Store and updated my operating system, I haven't been able to open certain Apple applications, like Mail, iCal, Calculator, Safari. Other applications, like Chrome, Firefox, CleanMyMac or Coda 2.5 are working just fine. I can't even get the App Store to launch. I tried opening the apps through Spotlight, the dock and via Finder, but nothing works.
    My Macbook Pro is from medio 2009 and runs Yosemite fine except for the apps not launching. I can't check my system specifications, because ...these also won't launch.
    Suggestions anyone? Perhaps this is a familiar problem.
    Thanks

    Here is the only viable solution for that:
    Install or Reinstall Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion from Scratch
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Erase the hard drive:
      1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
      2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
          left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
      3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on
            the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass. Click on
          the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
      4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
                because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • Ipad mini apps not updating after ios8.2 update

    apps not updating after software update ios8.2 on ipaD MINI WITH RETINA SCREEN

    Turn off any auto-update, if it is on, then tap any of the "circle icons" showing that a download is in progress, in order to stop the download. Then go to the Settings and reset the Network Settings. After the iPad starts back up, then check to make sure no apps are currently in progress of downloading. If any are, stop them again, and reset the network settings again. When it starts up again, none should be in the process of downloading. Then from that point forward, only download manually and never more than two at a time. If it is more than 100 MB, then do only one at a time. If any gets stuck at that point, then stop the download and reset the Network settings.
    That should take care of you for now. We'll see what another update brings ... IOS 8.2 (which might be the next one).

  • Calendars not updating since getting iphone5

    My calendars not updating since getting iphone5
    Used to work OK  before I upgraded, but I can't see why it's not happening.
    Other device is my wifes ipad and iphone

    First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

  • Iphone 5s mails not updated since monday. Checks and then says updated Monday. All settings checked and deleted and reinstated account....no change

    My iPhone 5s mail has not updated since Monday; I can see mails on iMac.  Checks for mail but nothing new appears.    I have checked all settings and deleted and reinstated mail box but no luck. Can anyone help please.

    If the mail provider is a pop mail account, that could be why, because the iMac may have downloaded them already.
    If you go to mail > preferences > accounts, it'll tell you there if it is pop or imap.
    Let me know and i'll assist you further

  • Has anyone else had trouble with apps not updating when you update through the app store?

    I'm having trouble with GSN Games app not updating, even though the app store says that it's the most updated version.  Has anyone else experienced this?  My mother's app updated just fine with all the new features and games within the app, but mine didn't update the same.  We both have ipad2 running on ios 7.0.06.  I can't figure this out.  New games were added to the app that I'd like to play, but can't because of this.
    Any suggestions before I contact the app developer?
    Thanks so much for you help.

    I frequently get my connection is to slow for play.
    Tap Settings / General / Reset / Reset Network Settings.
    Restart your iPhone.
    Try again.

  • Why do Apps not update after installing iOS6?  They just hang there!

    WHy do apps not update after installing iOS6?

    Each time? every day? Just plain crazy! Updates happen automatically on your mac....why not the same thing on ipad/iphone?
    If the app was purchased on my phone with my account, surely they do not need to "verify" my credentials each time. If my phone was stolen and someone purchased a $20 app surely my $300 phone is more important?
    They need to come up with e better solution...when we all have hundred or thousands of apps on our devices what then?

  • Apps not updating.  Stuck on "Waiting"

    I saw that large thread that was started months ago about apps not updating, getting hung up on "Waiting" then saying "App X could not be updated at this time.  Done?  Retry?" and no matter what you select, you cannot update or even use that app.
    Has this still not been fixed?  People were posting about this issue 5+ months ago.  Do I really need to download some 3rd party software like iExplore to fix this?
    I tried all the basic things listed in that thread, but I cannot believe Apple hasn't addressed this.  Is there some new quick fix I'm missing?

    Try tapping the App, so that it changes to Paused instead of Waiting, then tap it again to resume the install.
    Also, make sure you don't have any paused downloads in other apps either, like the iTunes Store.
    If that doesn't do it, try resetting or restoring the iPhone.

    It sounds like your iPad is sleeping or you lose your connection before the process completes.  Try plugging the iPad in to a power out and do the update.  Make sure you have a strong wifi signal.
