How to update App Store apps using ARD?

I run a tech desk for a middle school with over 400 computers. I can use ARD to update all Apple OS updates, but cannot update all apps from the Apple App Store. So far, I can only see a method to do this at each individual computers, which is time consuming and can lead to errors. Is there a method, besides running Apple Server, that Apple Remote Desktop can perform updates for Apple Store apps?

Hi,
I did develop an Applescript that downloaded outstanding updates from the Mac App store, then placed it on the host machine and Launched it from ARD.
Worked fine when there was only one update, then it broke when there were two as the buttons moved around. I eveltually gave up as it was too much work trying to figure it for my small number of 'puters.
Regards,
Shawn

  • Can't update apps using itunes 11.03

    I updated to itunes 11.03.
    They changed how you update apps.  Instead of clicking the app button on left and getting updates, there is a tab; but, when you hit update the update apps just sit there and won't go away.
    Anyone else have this problem.

    I have the same problem with my iOS devices. When I sync to remove or update apps it get stuck on step 3 determining apps to sync and then nothing happens.
    Before updating itunes, it was working fine.
    I am now using iTunes 11.0.4.4 on a Windows XP Pro Version 2002 Service Pack 2.
    Please help and make the necessary actions.

  • How to update apps in iTunes 11.0.4.4

    Hi,
    Is anyone able to tell me how I update apps via iTunes in version 11.0.4?
    Thanks

    I saw that the Apps box was unche cked in my General Preferences (Edit -> Preferences).  I checked the Apps box and then "Apps" reappeared in my Sidebar.  If you click on Apps, there is an option for Updates in the menu across the top.  But I didn't have any apps appear on the page after I clicked Apps.  I went to the store and downloaded a free app.  That one appeared in the Apps list.  But my other apps do not appear.  I'm assuming it's something related to syncing (if I sync my device then the apps might reappear).  But I'm having Wi-Fi sync issues as well.  This "update" *****.

  • How to update apps in itunes 11

    Cannot find in Itunes 11 how to update apps.  The phone indicates availble updates, which I can do directly on the phone.  in itunes 10 you could update apps and save the cellular data.  I cannot find it.

    No one has offered this solution yet: 
    I also had the problem where the "View" menu did not have a "Show Sidebar" option, and there was NO pull-down menu in the upper left (not "apps", not "music" -- no menu at all).  The problem, as said earlier, is that I was 'looking at my iPhone'.  I.e., topics listed at the top center were: "Summary", "Info", "Apps", "Music", etc., and I had already clicked on "Apps", which is not the thing to do (unfortunately).  There is no pathway from the "Apps" option for the iPhone section to actual App updates (sigh!).  Solution:
    1.  If you can't find the "Show Sidebar" option in the "View" menu and don't see any pull-down menu at upper left, click on the blue "DONE" button in the upper right.
    2.  This should get you back to your library, and now be able to see the pull-down menu at upper left and see the "Show Sidebar" option in the "View" menu. 
        a.  If you do "Show Sidebar", the page will look a lot like earlier (better) versions of iTunes, and you can click on the "Apps" line near upper-left.
         b.  If you go to the pull-down menu, instead, you get the same 4 choices that are in the sidebar ("Music", "Movies", "TV Shows", and "Apps").  Clicking on "Apps" gives you the Apps page, with any available updates mentioned at lower left.

  • Tip: Unable to Install or Update Apps Using the iPhone's App Store?

    I had a problem today where I found myself unable to install updates, or install new or previously purchased apps using the App Store on the iPhone. However, I had no problem with the installation of apps when I plugged my iPhone into my computer, opened iTunes and dragged the app I wanted over to my iPhone. So, I did the usual: I tried a reboot, and, when that didn't work, I powered my phone off and waited a few minutes before turning it back on. Still no love with the updating or installation of apps using the App Store on my iPhone.
    Here is what I did do to fix it:
    I keep backups of my iPhone on my MBP and I back up my phone regularly. If you do not, you should start doing so. Anyway, I went ahead and plugged my phone into my computer and launched iTunes (I also update my MBP daily if necessary, so the most current version of iTunes was used).
    Once my phone showed up in iTunes and I could select it, I right-clicked on the iPhone's name (I use a MBP, but I know Windows users might view this, too, so universal language is what I will use - for Mac users, right-clicking means using two finger tap on a touchpad or using the good 'ol Control-click) and selected "Back Up" from the menu.
    Once the phone was backed up, I right-clicked again on the iPhone's name and selected "Restore from Backup...".
    I made sure the value for "iPhone Name" was correct and that the "Last Backed Up" day and time values were correct and I clicked the "Restore" button and let the restore process finish completely (wait until your iPhone shows up in iTunes again before doing anything else with your phone).
    Once the restore was complete, I was extra cautious and powered off then powered on my phone. Finally, I went ahead and plugged it back into my MBP and made sure that the phone showed up in iTunes.
    Following all of that, I launched the App Store on my iPhone again, entered the password for my Apple ID and updating apps, installing new apps, and installing previously purchased apps from iCloud all worked again.
    Please note that this process is much different than just simply clicking the "Restore" button on your iPhone's homepage in iTunes. That will prompt you to backup your phone, completely restore it to factory defaults, and, then require you to restore from backup to get all your settings and such back. This is not the route I took - I simply restored from an existing backup. I want to make sure that this point is clear. Although, if restoring from an existing backup does not solve the issue at first, then perhaps a restore to factory defaults followed up with a restore from a backup will do the trick, too. I just did not want to waste my time taking the much longer route first and was happy to find my iPhone's App Store working again by simply restoring my phone using an existing backup.
    I have seen a lot of posts regarding this issue in the support communities, with none of them having an answer (even after calling Apple Support). I hope this helps anyone else that has had, is having or will have the same issue! Feel free to post comments regarding other solutions you have found for the same issue - let's have one discussion where all possible solutions can be posted so iPhone users do not have to sort through a bunch of unhelpful discussions just to find a solution that was not yet documented (like I had to).

  • How to update apps when another person used their apple id instead of mine

    Another person set up my mac 3 years ago and used their apple id to download apps but I no longer know them. How do I do updates for my apps with my id?

    You cannot. You will need to Purchase those Apps using Your Apple ID.
    Anything Downloaded with a Particular Apple ID is tied to that Apple ID and Cannot be Merged or Transferred to a Different Apple ID

  • How do I download/update apps using my changed Apple ID?

    I recently changed my Apple ID on my laptop and I had some difficulties with things on my iPod Touch 5g. Sometimes when I'm doing something my iPod asks fro my password for my old Apple ID. I just want to make it so my new ID will be properly connected on my iPod. So the problems that I'm having  are downloading/updating apps on my iPod. I have like 6 apps to update so I try to update them and every time I try to update them it asks for my old Apple ID. How do I make it so I could update my apps without it asking for my password for my old ID?? Help!!!

    To make having apps under two IDs as seamless as possible, go to Manage your Apple ID and change the password on the old ID to match the password on the new ID. Then it won't matter which ID is asking for a password, since it will be the same for both:
    Apple - My Apple ID
