IPhoto 9.2.3 update is incorrectly shown in App Store

iPhoto 9.2.3 update. I can not get this update badge to go away. I have never purchased iPhoto through the App store so I don't know why it even shows up. I knew I had updated iPhoto already but wanted to see what it said when I clicked on the update and I got the following error:
iPhoto is already installed on this computer.
Choose Software Update from the Apple menu to check for available updates.
Of course, I had updated my iPhoto when it came out for my desktop a while ago and can't get this annoying badge to disappear. Would love some help with this. Thanks

Hi...
Try deleting the cache and .plist files associated with the App Store.
Go to ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/Cache.db
Move the Cache.db file from the com.apple.appstore folder to the Trash.
Now go to ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist
Move the com.apple.appstore.plist file to the Trash.
Restart your Mac.
Note: For Lion v10.7x: To find the Home folder in OS X Lion, open the Finder, hold the Option key, and choose Go > Library

When I start iPhoto, I'm prompted to download an update. But in the App Store isn't an update

Are you signed into the AppStore with the same AppleID that you used to accept iPhoto originally, when you set up your Mac?
You will see only the updates for the apps that are tied to your AppleID. Look also at the "Accept" section of the "Purchased" tab. Is iPhoto there?
And is iPhoto installed directly at the top level of the Applications folder, or in a subfolder? Move it to the top level.
iPhoto may not yet be available a the AppStore of your country. For some forum members it helped, to set the primary system language to "English U.K" and to reboot, before trying to update.

HT5525 I can't find the updates tab in the mac app store (just updated iTunes)?

I'm trying to purchase a book of photos through iPhoto - it tells me to update iPhoto before I can order the book. My macbook pro is running OSX Lion so it says I can update iPhoto "in the updates tab of the mac app store"... but when I go to the app store in iTunes, there is no updates tab. I then tried the second update option, via software update under the apple menu, but that just updated a bunch of other firmware, not iPhoto.
Can anyone help point me in the direction of the iPhoto '11 update please?

You don't use iTunes for that. Launch the App Store application
that's in your Applicaitons folder, login with your Apple ID and you should be able to update iPhoto.

I can not download iPhoto 9.0 as it is unavailable in the app store. I need it before I can download iPhoto 9.0.1

I am currently running OS X Yosemite on my MAC. I cannot download iPhoto 9.0 as it is unavailable in the app store. I need it before I can download iPhoto 9.0.1

iPhoto 8.1.2.
OS X 10.10.2 is correct.
Your only options are to:
1 - upgrade to 10.10.3 and Photos 1.0
or
2 - purchase a copy of the iLife 11 disk from an online retailer like Amazon.com , install iPhoto 9.0 and upgrade it to 9.4.3 via these updaters:
update to iPhoto 9.2.1
update to iPhoto 9.3
update to iPhoto 9.3.2
update to iPhoto 9.4
and finally to iPhoto 9.4.3
From there you may be able to get iPhoto 9.6.1 from the App Store but not sure.

Apple id showing incorrectly in mac app store

The apple ID is showing incorrectly in the app store. I've signed out and then signed back in with the correct email but it continues to show incorrectly.

If you're trying to update an application, you need to delete and redownload it, which may require repurchasing a paid one.

When I go to update my software using the app store download, it always asks for the previous user's ID, not mine. Please help!

When I go to update my software using the app store download, it always asks for the previous user's ID, not mine (my IT guy at school's-I am a faculty with admin priviledges). I have signed in as me, have set the main preferences login user as me,and everywhere on the laptop I can use my apple ID except here. It always shows me a greyed out ID of my IT. How can I reset this to my ID? It doesn't give me an option to change the user ID, only a link to reset password. I reset it, but it did not change the problem. Can someone help me?

It's not an ID problem, it's an ownership problem.
When someone uses their personal Apple ID to buy and download content, the content is licensed to them and has their Apple ID engrained in it's DNA. It is an anti-piracy program. And when that personal Apple ID is used to setup a new Mac, it involves the Mac itself, the shipping OS and any pre-installed apps as well.
It's not the correct way to handle Macs that belong to a business or an institution. And had it been handled correctly they would not now be in this predictument needing a drastic remedy.

How to address HP Printer Software Update 3.0, iTunes 12.0.1 update that sits in the App Store, 'Calculating' for days with no install?

The App Store indicates there is a Software Update that appears to include the HP Printer Software Update 3.0 and iTunes 12.0.1
Unfortunately, the software update fails to install. Instead, it just sits there 'Calculating' for days with no progression on the status bar of the overall update.
The update buttons of both the HP Printer Software Update 3.0 and iTunes 12.0.1 are both greyed out, with no progress bar.
Not sure of what the issue is, there is no warning or error dialog box that appears or any indication of an application that may be interfering with the install.
Any advice?
MacBook Pro (17-inch, Early 2011) 2.3 GHz Core i7, 4GB RAM

Thanks for the suggestion. I wanted to install the individual updates but because I had settings to automatically download and install updates, whenever I opened the App Store, the system would try to download and install, preventing me from canceling the update to execute each application update one at a time.
After changing the settings from automatically downloading and applying updates, followed by a restart. I was able to open the App Store and run each individual update.
Thanks again.

After updating to iOS 6 the App store is in Korean instead of English.

After updating to iOS 6 the App store is in Korean instead of English. How do I get it back to English? I understand the reason that it may be in Korean because I am living in South Korea right now. But I have all of my settings set to English only. So why is the App store in Korean? The App store is the only app that is in Korean. I have add this account in English the entire time I've been here with no issues until I updated it.

Never mind, I sorted it myself. I just had to go into my iTunes account settings and that automatically redirected me.

It's hard to tell what's wrong with your Apple ID. Maybe the country you have registered is different from what your friend have registered. Apps are available differently in different areas. That's what I see.

Microsoft Office 2011 no longer opens because "there is a problem" after updating mountain lion when the app store said there was an update available this morning. Reinstalling did not work. What's the problem?

Has your problem been solved by the updates??
Have a similar problem. This MacBook opened all MS Office programs in Dec2012 but no longer does in Feb2013. Went to Microsoft/mac/downloads but none of the three updates would run citing a problem "version of software needed to run this update was not found on this volume".
MacBook: 7.1, Intel Core 2 Duo, 2.4 GHz

HT3159 When I double click on IPhoto to open and look at my photos the APP store trys to open it. I never had this issue before. Why now?

I was using IPhoto looking at creating a Book when I uploaded the book for purchasing the site froze. I stopped the upload turned off computer and when I restarted the computer IPhoto dissappeared. I called Apple and the lady talked me through restoring IPhoto. She found it in the trash.It worked fine for a day or two, I uploaded more photos from Nikon camera closed IPhoto and now it won't open. The App Store trys to open it but it times out and won't connect.
When I double click on IPhoto to open and look at my photos the APP store trys to open it. I never had this issue before. What do I do?

Try dragging a photo to the desk top, highlight it and press COMMAND I this will open the info window, in the drop down menu "open with" select either preview, or other, then select iPhoto. Preview is the default.
Then click "Change All"
Hope this helps

Why won't iPhoto download after i have bought it from the app store and installed mavericks

why won't iPhoto download after i have bought it from the app store and installed mavericks?

Sorry no mind readers here so you have to tell us details, context and any error messages - just stating an abstract problem that could have thousands of causes is not enough
What version of iPhoto? Of the OS? what has changed since it worked? How are you trying to open it (clicking on the icon in the Dock, double clicking on the application in the applications folder, ???)?
Anything else you can tell a total stranger who can not see you or your computer to let them assist you?

IOS 6.0.1 update still no fix for App Store Purchased section

iOS 6.0.1 update still no fix for App Store Purchased section. Keep crashing after few seconds and kicked back to home.
Does apple even aware of this problem???

Hi, thanks for your comment.
The steps that I have dines so far is similar to you I think. I have all so tried a restore on all my devices running 6.0.1 and still nothing. Have spoke to staff in an Apple shop and they were no help at all and kind said it was my devices that had the issue and nothing to do with anything at Apples end. Have all s spoke to staff in a premium retail seller of Apple products and again, no he,o what so ever. I think it's clearly a issue at Apples end with the serves sending out that data when request. IOS6 is full of bugs and runs so slow it silly.
I'm thinking that Android is the way the forward after all the problems I've had with iOS6.
