HT1338 Updating iMovie in App Store

I am the second user of my macbook air (boss got a new pro). His apple id is needed to update imovie in the app store. I have signed in on the App Store but i am still prompted to use his apple id to install the update. I don't need iMovie but I am fearful that this could present problems in the future. Updates for ML and MS office were successfully installed earlier but I can't get around the iMovie update...Any help will be appreciated!

I don't think that would work.
If you don't need iMovie, you can delete the application or ask your boss to sign in using their Apple ID and hide the update so it won't be presented to you.

  • How do you remove an iMovie update from my app store update tab?

    The iMovie 10.0 software update (released Oct 22, 2013) appears in my App Store 'updates' tab but it's not compatible with my 'ol 2008 iMac (it doesn't have the correct graphics card). How do I remove the update? I've turned off "auto-update", relauched the app store application, etc, but to no avail.

    Apple has released iMovie 10.0.1 that seems to support older video cards. I got it installed on my mid-2007 iMac

  • Trying to buy Imovie form App store and have the message: These apps cannot be accepted on this computer.     Future updates of these apps can be found through Software Update. How to solve it?

    I have a MBP form July 2011, upgraded to Lion 10.7.4. Last week I had to restore the OS.
    I also bought some time ago Iphoto.
    Today I wanted to install Imovie from App Store. Instead of the Buy bottom I found an Accept bottom and when I tryed to install I had the message:
    These apps cannot be accepted on this computer.
    Future updates of these apps can be found through Software Update.
    I looked for a solution and found a lot of questions about this error but not real answers to fix it.
    Can you please let me know hoe to fix?

    Your Mac should have had all three of the iLife apps pre-bundled with it; iPhoto, iMovie and GarageBand. If your Mac came with Mac OS X Snow Leopard installed, then the apps should be on the Install DVD that came with your Mac, perhaps in a folder on the disc labeled bundled apps. After installing them, these apps would not be updated through the Mac App Store, but with Software Update.

  • Why do I have two icons for iMovie '11 after downloading the update from the App Store?  Previously I had iMovie '09.

    Why do I have two icons for iMovie '11 after downloading the update from the App Store?  Previously I had iMovie '09.

    Do you see two versions of iMovie in your Application folder?
    You can drag the icons out of the dock and then drag what you want back to the dock from the Application folder.

  • HT1338 i have installed 10.6.8 and all of the updates but the app store won't allow me to buy mountain lion

    i insalled snow leopard 10.6.8 and all updates but the app store will not allow me to purchase mountain lion.

    Is your iMac from mid-2007 or newer?  If not, it's too old to support Mountain Lion.
    If so, do you meet all the requirements below for Mountain Lion?

  • HT1338 Why isn't the file size displayed for software updates in the App Store?

    Why isn't the file size displayed for software updates in the App Store?
    My only internet connection is a tether to my iPhone.
    My limited bandwidth forces me to manage my data consumption - I am forced to "google" the file size of the software update so I can decide if I have the headroom in my data plan to take advantage of the update.

    If you click on the name of the Application in your Updates Available list,
    it will take you to the update Imformation for that App.

  • Is GB 9.0.4 update today at App Store needed for all users, or just for Lion? Will it be in Software Update or is it paid update only? Please clarify

    I sure hope you are correct, Christoph. Seems one Mac site has questioned this also:

    No iWeb updates either way so far. Not that I use it, just an observation.

  • HT201064 Fresh Mavericks install, iPhoto installed from DVD - won't update via the App Store

    Hi all
    I did a fresh install of Mavericks, then installed a few apps from the App store.
    I then remembered iPhoto etc. that I have from the original install discs (2012 MBP)...but whilst iPhoto says an update is available (9.5.1), and launches the App store it won't show as an update via the App store.
    Anyone got any ideas?
    Thanks in advance.

    Sadly you're mistaken. A 2012 MacBook Pro has no install DVDs. Apple stopped issuing install disks with new Macs soon after the permanent advent of the Mac App Store with OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8. Additionally, the version of the iLife apps; iPhoto, iMovie and GarageBand that last came on install disks are not the Mac App Store (MAS) versions and are not compatible with being updated through the MAS.
    The apps from that old disk that you have from another Mac may be updatable however, using the Software Update facility in the Apple menu.

  • Updates in the App store

    I just bought a new iMac this weekend.It has 3 updates on the App store but won't let me update the apps listed iPhoto, GarageBand and iMovie. It keeps telling me to log into the account I used to purchase it.  HELP!!!

    There are a few threads about this problem - here's one long one!

  • Download updates from the app store

    I've bought my brother's old (2009) imac and am trying to update from the app store. Although I'm logged in via my account in the app store sign-in dialogue box has his account name greyed out. The only option I have is to enter his password or cancel. How do I remove his name and replace it with mine? Thanks.

    The first thing you should do with a second-hand computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. How you do that depends on the model. Look it up on this page to see what version was originally installed.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) installation disc, which you can get from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller — not from eBay or anything of the kind. If the machine has less than 1 GB of memory, you'll need to add more in order to install 10.6. I suggest you install as much memory as it can take, according to the technical specifications.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the installation media that came with it: gray installation discs, or a USB flash drive for some MacBook Air models. If you don't have the media, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
    To boot from an optical disc or a flash drive, insert it, then reboot and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, you don't need media. It should boot into Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
    Once booted from the disc or in Internet Recovery, launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive — not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In the Partition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive, which is what you should do.
    After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. When the installation is done, the system will automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.
    You should then run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. If you want to upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, buy it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the previous owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed — you have to repurchase them.
    If the previous owner "accepted" the bundled iLife applications (iPhoto, iMovie, and Garage Band) in the App Store so that he or she could update them, then they're linked to that Apple ID and you won't be able to download them without buying them. Reportedly, Apple customer service has sometimes issued redemption codes for these apps to second owners who asked.
    If the previous owner didn't deauthorize the computer in the iTunes Store under his Apple ID, you wont be able toauthorize it under your ID. In that case, contact iTunes Support.

  • HT201303 when I try to do updates in the app store it keeps asking for my credit card info and telling me that my "security code is invalid".  it obviously isn't.  how can I fix this issue?

    I have 3 Iphone 4's.   One of them updates from the App Store with no issues.  My other two which are under the same AppleID will not let me do updates.  when I try it asks for my Credit card info then after i enter it it says "security code invalid".   Has anyone else had this issue and how have you fixed it?
    thank you 

    Leigh...
    but cannot do this because I cannot access Mac App Store
    If you can't access the App Store from the Apple menu, Dock, or Applications folder installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo will reinstall the App Store for you.
    It's ok to do this even you are already running v10.6.8.
