I have an update for iPhoto in App store which won't download or clear from the App store

I have tried several times to update from iphoto 9.1.3 . The update in the App store is 9.4.3.
Every time I try I get 'cannot update as you already have this update. Although I don't.
Also I cannot delete the update in the store. Help.

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
If you have any external drives plugged, unplug them. Then, open App Store and check for updates again.
I recommend you to delete iPhoto from your Mac and reinstall it again, so go to the folder where you have iPhoto (normally, the Applications folder) and delete it. Then, if you purchased iPhoto from the App Store, open App Store > Purchases, and install iPhoto. The version you will have is 9.4.3.
If you purchased iPhoto on a DVD, insert the DVD and install iPhoto. Finally, open  > Software Update, and install the latest version

I have recently updated to iPhoto 9.2.1, more by accident I guess. In the older version off iPhoto when I imported photos and gave the event his own name, this name was also used in the "masterfile"

I have recently updated to iPhoto 9.2.1, more by accident I guess. In the older version of iPhoto when I imported photos and gave the event his own name (for exampample "110723 birthday son 2011"), this name was also used in the "masterfile", so I could find the file by his name ("110723 birthday son 2011") in the "masterfile" on my HD and copy and paste it from there to other computers.
In the new version the file gets stored under a seemingly random number, which does not give me any information about the content.
Is there a way to fix this? Would it be different in apperture?
Thanks

I have Iphoto '09, version 8.1.2 (424). I am having an identical problem. All my pictures are imported into Iphoto when I downloaded them from my camera. Until recently, I thought that the pictures were actually saved in the library. Since I need to crop my pictures for the web, and Iphoto doesn't do that, I purchased Photoshop Elements to do that. To my surprise, when I try to get a picture from Iphoto to Photoshop, it can't be done. That was when I realized, after wasting a lot of time, that the photos are not in the Iphoto library.
I started naming the pictures on Iphoto so I had a recognizable file name to open on Photoshop. Couldn't find it. I looked in the Backup folder and the Transfer software folder (I have a Nikon camera), and the names I entered in the Iphoto display, could not be found.
When I am trying to upload a photo to the web, I get the Finder folder showing with an active folder called "Photos" under "Media", which only displays Iphoto and PhotoBooth. This is a folder name that I cannot find in my HD anywhere when I look for it. If I edit a picture with Photoshop, I am not going to save it back to Iphoto (not sure whether it will work properly). How do I get my folder of edited photos to show when I want to upload a picture to the web?
Where (the name of the folder) do I find the pictures I see displayed on the Iphoto library, including any name changes, keywords added, and so on?

Nothing should be lost... However... it is both Prudent and Recommended that a backup should have been created and maintained.

What do you mean by you can add music to your Shuffle from your account? Is the music in your iTunes library? Is it configured to sync to your Shuffle?

Available updates for iphoto and imovie on apple store.

My apple informs me that I have available updates for iphoto and imovie, however when I try to update them I receive a message that i can't do this because I do not have the major version. How to proceed?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Open Finder and go to the folder where these applications are. Then, move them to Applications folder. Finally, open the App Store and update them to the most recent version. If it doesn't work, see if they are hidden, and if they are hidden, unhide them > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4928

How do i up date my apps? i have 8 updates for apps but its still giving me my old username and wants my old password

- You have to sign into the account that purchased the app in order to update the app.
- If there are more than one app that needs updating and they were purchased by different accounts you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased with one account.
- Also, if you changed your password you have to go to Settings>Store and sign out of the account and sign back in with the updated password.

Mac App Store problem - I have an update for an app that do not exist in my Mac

Hi, I have an update for an app that I never didn't bought before in my Mac App Store.
Thats happen before more than a year, I tried everything including updating the app (got an error) and format the Mac but the update for this app didn't remove.
the problem is maybe in my Apple account so I need your help, is there any way to remove this update?

You may have 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, the App Store could prompt you to update "Angry Birds" or "Twitter," but the hacked app could be "Final Cut Pro." Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you must carry out a systematic search with Spotlight.
1. 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.
2. 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 of search criteria, initially showing Kind. From that menu, select
          Other...
A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select
          Raw Query
as the criterion, then click OK or press return.
Now there will be a text box to the right of the menu of search criteria. That's where you enter the raw search query. Click in that box and paste the text you copied earlier by pressing command-V.
3. The search window will now show all the App Store products that are 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.
4. At least one of the apps in the Spotlight search results is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash, after quitting it if it's running. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
5. Quit and relaunch the App Store. Test.
If you find these instructions confusing, ask for an alternative method.

Is there a way to remove installed updates from the App Store update window? I keep getting an alert that I have an update for Apple Remote Desktop. It says its installed, but the alert and the app keep showing up. Annoying!!

After doing a software update for iPhoto, some of the photos in my library appear distorted and stretched. I have tried repairing the library but they are still distorted. Has anyone else experienced this and found a solution?

What upgrade did you apply? As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and test to see if the same problem persists. Does it?

What happens if you perform certain component update for iphoto '11 on mac twice?

Hi i know it sounds ridiculous and silly question to begin with, maybe i'm just being a little paranoid the thing is that i have update a certain component update for iphoto '11 twice which is "digital raw compatibility update 4.0.3" via automatic app store update on mac and manually via apple support update; the question is that will it replace the update that has been installed earlier on via automatic app store update with the one i have just installed manually via apple support site?, will it take an extra disk space or just rewrite itself cause i don't want to have a dupe update on my mac? and finally will it affect future updates for that particular component? (such as not being detected on app store automatically if new version has arrive?)
Thanks guys in advance

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Probably the version downloaded from Apple Support has overwritten the App Store version, although it's strange that the computer has allowed you to install the same update twice. Apart from this, you won't have any problem in the future and probably it hasn't taken more space of the hard drive

Updates for iPhoto in Mountain Lion, on a work computer.

Updates for iPhoto in Mountain Lion are only available from the App Store. I'm on a new iMac which is a work computer, owned by my employer, and don't want to enter my credit card details. The brand new iMac came with iPhoto installed, so I don't see why I should purchase updates for it.
Does anyone have a similar experience or any advice please?

You don't have to but you need to enter the Apple ID and passowrd for that Apple ID from the person that registered that Mac. So the owner would have those and if not they need to create an Apple ID for the company. As without one no updates can be done on that system.
In your tags it says you are using OS X 10.4.11. If that is incorrect please change it to the correct version of OS X. Which if this is a New iMac it should be 10.8.x.
Also why are you using iPhoto on a work computer? If you're not a photographer, or deal with images as part of your job then there's no real reason to update iPhoto. And if you are dealing with images as part of your job then you need a better image management program then iPhoto.
