Captfred,
Thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately no hide option is available by right clicking the Motion 5.0..4. update.
Seems strange that this does not appear to have been included, unless I'm missing something.

How to delete unwanted updates

After selecting the highlighted update icon the only option is "update all". Can this be bypassed or deleted?

You cannot remove items from your list of purchases. That is simply a list of receipts kept by Apple for your account.

How do I remove unwanted updates from the App Store?

How do I remove unwanted updates from the App Store? So you understand better what I'm referring to:
I have the App Store icon in the Dock. When there's an update a red number appears on said icon. Well, I went to check on the updates and it's for 4 different applications I either no longer have or use. One of them is an update for Lion OS users. I'm still on Snow Leopard, so it doesn't even apply to me.
So there they sit... I'm not going to download the updates... so how do I get rid of them?

Hi Andy ..
no longer have or use
If there are updates available for apps you have deleted, try this.
Go to ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore
Move the Cache.db and Updates files from the com.apple.appstore folder to the Trash.
Empty the Trash, restart your Mac.
For any apps you still have installed but do not use, the updates will still be available from the Updates top of the App Store window and show on the red badge on the App Store icon in the Dock.

How do I hide unwanted update downloads

I want to know how to hide or remove an unwanted update download from Apple, that has no relevance to me or my computer ie:

How do I remove an unwanted update from the App Store?

Ok,
So I open the App Store and there's a update awaiting me. Some App called CodeBox by one Vadim Shpakovski version 1.6 Released 7 April 2012
So I check it over, check the app out and what it's all about. The App costs £6.99 and it's designed for developers. Simply I don't want the **** thing and I never applied or activated the app for purchase.
I've looked everywhere and there's no delete update or remove update.
Can anyone enlighten me as to how to remove the unwanted update?
Thanks All.

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, if the App Store says you need to update "Twitter," the hacked app may be "Angry Birds" or something else entirely. Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you have to carry out a systematic search.
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.
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 initially showing Kind. From that menu, select Other...
A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select Raw Query and click OK or press return.
Now there will be a text box to the right of popup menu. Click in that box and paste (command-V).
The search window will show all the App Store products you've 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.
At least one of the items listed in the search window is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
Log out and log back in. Test.

I've no idea who Glenn is nor what you've tried so far, but what worked for
my Nvidia Quadro K2100M was to install the latest 8.1 driver from the
Nvidia web site. Once I had installed that, I was no longer offered the

How do you remove unwanted updates???

Hi,
I have the game Bejeweled HD on my I-Pad original running IOS 5.1.1. There is a new update for Bejeweled HD available. When I updated my app, the app crashes upon starting. Therefore, I uninstalled the app and re-installed the previous version from my I-Tunes account.
However, now on the App Store icon, there is always a red "1" on the icon saying there is an update available. And of course that update is for Bejeweled HD which I don't want because it doesn't work.
Is there any way of removing the "Unwanted" update or just hiding it? Is there a way to remove the red "1" on the App Store icon?
Thanks.

How to suppress 'spurious' update events where the entry is identical

We often have clusters with event listeners on reference data caches. These caches are refreshed by calling putAll() to update values efficiently. Although this is efficient, and keeps refresh code simple, many unwanted 'spurious' update events are generated. Spurious in the sense that in most of update events the old and new values are the same.
We considered using a MapTrigger to suppress these uninteresting update events. The problem is how to implement a 'veto' in the MapTrigger.process method. What we'd like to do from a trigger is:
if (old value == new value)
ignore new entry
else
process, enrich, or validate new entry as desired...
end ifWe'd like a clean way to signal from a MapTrigger that an entry should be ignored (rather than rejected). The Javadoc shows two possibilities:
*(1)* undo the pending change by resetting the entry value to the original value obtained from MapTrigger.Entry.getOriginalValue();
*(2)* reject the pending change by throwing a RuntimeException, which will prevent any changes from being committed, and will result in the exception being thrown from the operation that attempted to modify the map
Of these *(2)* Causes a put() failure in the client. That is appropriate for something like a validation failure, but not for simply ignoring an unwanted update. Option *(1)* unfortunately generates an update event!
Our current workaround is a MapEventTransformer to suppress the spurious updates:
public class UpdateSupressionTransformer implements MapEventTransformer {
/** Avoid sending an update event if the value is unchanged */
public MapEvent transform(MapEvent e) {
    if (e.getId() == MapEvent.ENTRY_UPDATED) {
      if (e.getNewValue().equals(e.getOldValue())) {
        return null;
    return e;
}This works well but requires client code to register event listeners correctly. It also means that the unecessary change is still generated in the cache. For example a cache stores will be called needlessly.
Can a feature be considered to allow a clean way for identical updates to be ignored, or to not generate events?
Ideally this would be before the update is made - like a trigger. It seems a pity the MapTrigger design does not allow this.
Such a feature would allow simple cache refresh logic using putAll() - without having to check for deltas - avoiding large numbers of unwanted update events. We think this is likely to be a common requirement.
Cheers,
phil

Seeking Advice on Rejecting MR2 Update

It appears that I may be on of the few very lucky TB users that has been satisfied with it's performance since I purchased it shortly after its' introduction. I also rushed into the MR1 update and got lucky again. When the MR2 came out I started checking again and went through all the ailments of everyone here. Fortunately I quit checking for the update a few weeks back. Two nights ago I caught a pop up window indicating there was an update available and the it would install in x.xx time and was counting down, same thing happened last night, both times I rejected the update.
Will the update, now, be continually pushed to my phone and I have to hopefully catch the pop window and reject it or will the system figure out that I am rejecting the update and finally give up the push to update? I sure don't want to be checking for the pop up window all the time.
Thanks for any information

the problem is that the update did nothing to improve the performance if your device already works fine. all it does is add more bloatware. there's NO reason to have to insatll it if you don't want to......particularly if you were fortunate enough to have the version of skype that previously worked on the tbolt. i was flawlessly making video calls until this update rendered skype useless. i can think of many reasons NOT to get the update....but no reason to get it.
unfortunately though, i'm afraid it will force itself onto your device at some point. i don't know if there's anything that you could possibly disable to prevent it?
I don't disagree with that. I think the only performance improvement was probably to try to fix the random reboots, but like you said, if you didn't have the problem, you probably won't notice any change. The only extra Verizon addition that I saw was the MyVerizon app. I don't really need it since I have the unlimited hotspot, so I don't need to keep track of that data and I can choose not to use it. I just have it on because I like to know how much data I'm using even if it is unlimited and it's a little more convenient than doing it on the web site. Was there more than that added? I look at everything that is running pretty often and I haven't seen anything else. Not disputing you, I just want to know if there's something else I should be looking for.
I just don't think Verizon is going to let you keep using the free hotspot forever just because you don't update since that is costing them money. It's just my opinion that you will end up being charged for the hotspot even if you do manage to put the OTA off indefinitely. I wanted the $30.00 unlimited Hotspot and I wanted to make sure it would be my choice and not Verizon's because I think they prefer the tiered system to the unlimited. I really don't know if they can tell if you're using the hotspot. I use to think they could because the last time I got a bill in the mail, it showed both the phone data and hotspot data, but I'm not seeing that when I look at my bill on the web site.
As far as Skype, I don't use it, but I have read on other forums that some have had problems with Skype since the update and others haven't. And as usual, I've seen different fixes that work for some and not for others. Another update inconsistency. That seems to be one of the prices you pay with Android. There are so many different phones from different manufacturers that it's hard to do an update or develop an app that will work for all of them. Even those of us with the TBolt have different experiences. The alternative is the one I had before Android and I don't want to go there again.
The only thing that seems certain is that no one is certain about anything and it's all mainly just speculation. But, that's fun also.

Unwanted Updates

Hi guys.
I have a MacBook Pro , it runs 10.8.5
I recently uninstalled the app "Twitter", but there is an update available in the app store for it!
Another problem is that when I try to update it even if I had the app , it asked for the password of an unknown Apple ID!
I tried deleting the com.apple.appstore.plist file from ~/Library/Preferences/
but it didn't work.
I wanted to upgrade to OS X Yosemite , but the problem is that even if I upgrade my Mac to Yosemite , the update is still there(I tested it on another MacBook Pro , too!)
Sb told me you should delete some files from ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore ,
and sb else said that I should delete the _MASReceipt folder. But I can't find the folder in the package of the App store(Right Click->Show Package Contents)
and "Delete" it.

No , I do not have any pirated apps.
I just wanted to know how can i delete the _MASReceipt folder.Because I can't find it!

Why is there no longer an option to removed unwanted updates?

And how does this relate to Apple Remote Desktop, Apple's software for managing networked Macs?

How do you access updates to apps from the App store after changing to a new ID because the password on the old ID was changed and you don't know what it is now?

How do you access updates to apps from the App store after changing to a new ID because the password on the old ID was changed by the former husband and you don't know what it is now? And you set up your own new ID and account but can NOT access the updates, from the App store for the many apps that you already have, because they require that you sign in with that former now inaccessible ID and account and password? Call it a problem of modern times and changing relationships, if you want to be charitable.

So I guess it will only be new apps that I download that are allowed to give me their updates while 13 updates wait for me on an ID I can no longer access.
Yes... sorry.
In the future, if need be, you can re download your purchases for free > Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Good rule of thumb is to back up your purchases regardless > Mac App Store: Backing up your app purchases
