My Apple Remote Desktop won't update in the App Store but it won't update. Any suggestions?

I just updated to Yosemite. Now Apple Remote Desktop shows up in the App Store as an update. However, double clicking yields an alert that it can't be updated through the store. The Alert advises that I have to go to the Apple menu Software Updater. That didn't work either.

I also have ARD 3 from the disk and just updated to Yosemite. Its up to date at Version 3.7.2 (372A19).
The "update" the App Store claims is Version 3.7.2 - Released Mar 17, 2014.
The error message I get is:
We could not complete your purchase.
Remote Desktop is already installed on this computer. Choose Software Update from the Apple menu to check for available updates.
This seems like a bug to me.

I have updates in the app store, but they won't update

I have updates waiting, but I can't get them to update. I have had this phone for nearly two years. This is a new issue.

What happens exactly when you click to update? Do you get an "updating" button in place of the "Update" button? Is there an error message?
Did you try updating using itunes on a computer instead of an over the air update directly from the device?

You can probably change the ID in the "iTunes and App stores" settings on the iPad....click on the wrong account ID , select sign out, then log in with your own ID, I have not done this but I think it works.....
but I would be more inclined to to the factory reset and start afresh.

Just downloaded Lion and now iMovie won't respond when I try to open it. Even tried deleting the program (since it was an older version) and bought it new from the app store, but still won't respond.

Thanks for this mha007 - I can now open FF with a new profile. Can I copy my settings from the old profile or will this bring over the same problem, maybe a corrupt file. If it would bring the same problem, is there any way I can check which file is corrupt, apart from taking them over one by one?

My iPod touch will access the app store, but it won't install from it.

I was given a used iPod Touch, and I don't know any of its history. Eveything was working fine, and then one day I tried to install from the App store and it won't work at all. I can press the "install" button, but then the app store will just close without even setting up an icon on the home screen. If I try to install the same app again, there's no record that I had tried to install it previously. I use this for school, so this is really annoying.
PS: I am a clueless Windows user, and have never owned and i-anything until now. =)

Try resetting the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

I purchased mountain lion in the app store but it won't download

I bought OS X Mountain Lion in the App Store on my Macbook. It asked for my computer password and itunes accont password. After I entered them a button labeled "Download" replaced the "$19.99" button. When I click on the button a small whirling symbol appears above it but dissapars after a second and nothing begins to download. I tried to hit the apple in the upper left hand corner of the screen and select software update but it doesn't appear happens. What should I do?

Were you in your Purchases section of the app store?
After purchasing it, it should show up there.

I purchased Mountain Lion online from the App store but it won't download

I purchased Mountain Lion from the App Store, and after 2 days it still hasn't downloaded. The download appears to have frozen.
Has anyone else had this problem?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
First of all, restart your Mac and resume the download. To resume the download, open App Store > Purchases, and press the Resume button next to OS X Mountain Lion.
If it doesn't work, open Finder, go to Applications folder and delete the OS X Mountain Lion installer. Then, open App Store > Purchases, and download Mountain Lion again

I downloaded the latest update from the Apps store and it won't work. I cannot download anothe rbecause the Apps store reads this version installed. What to do? What to dooooo?

What a pain in the *** this whole process is too. I might as well just delete the freakin' program from the computer and rack it up to nonsense on the Apple end of things. To **** with you. Support ***! Bah! 20 minutes into this process and I have to type and retype over something you suggested I do. Next time I'll take your suggestions with a grain of salt . Fuggetaboutit!

HT201266 It's saying I need to log into iTunes to be able to use the App Store, but it won't let me log into iTunes because it says I need to log into iTunes which makes no sense whatsoever to me any help? Thanks

if if anyone can help me out i would be so thankful

Go to the main iTunes store screen.
Go to the very bottom right of thes creen and click flag/marble icon.
Select the US store.
Instead of selecting *Create account*, select Redeem.
Input the card number then select Create new account (unless you already have an iTunes account then use that).
If these iTunes gift cards are from the US, you need to create a US iTunes account with a US address.

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!

IPad apps will not update from the App Store

I have apps that need to be updated from the App Store but when I select the "Update" icon, all it does is open the app rather than update it.
i Have tried turning off the iPad and turning back on...doesn't work.
I havent downloaded iOS 8.1 because I know people have experienced issues with it. I have an iPad 2. Help please!!

I had this problem
I hit the power button and the round button at the same time and held it until it rebooted
You get the black screen and the apple logo
When that was done I want to the app and update screen and I was able to update my apps
I suggest when you update stay on that screen until they all update
I find it sometimes get stuck updating when I leave the screen as they are updating and do other things, but I could be wrong. It just seems to me that is when it happens.
The reboot works and don't worry you don't lose anything when u reboot it's like shutting down a computer and powering it back up. Everything you had before will still be there.

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!!

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.

Anyone else getting a timed out error message when trying to check for updates via the app store software on a desktop?

Post subject: NSURLErrorDomain error -1100 in OS X 10.8
If you check for software updates using the App Store in OS X 10.8 and get "NSURLErrorDomain error -1100" the problem may be with your Software Update preferences. This is particularly likely if you were using a custom Apple Software Update server. To solve the problem, quit the App Store, move the following two files (if present) to the trash, restart, and only then rerun App Store updates:
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist.lockfile

I was recently trying to upgrade to mountain lion through the app store. I have unreliable Internet from a cable company whom I will not name, but we all know who they are. My Internet dropped while downloading the upgrade. Once I went through the notorious unplug the modem/router and plugged it back in to gain Internet connectivity again, I could not resume. No matter what I did, the app store kept displaying "an error occurred." I am hoping that those with the same issue read this first to save them hours of skimming through the Internet to find a solution. Here are the steps to take:
1. Make sure you have reestablished Internet connection
2. Chances are you got frustrated when you tried to resume/unpause the download and clicked the "X" to the left. If so, select the "Store" drop-down menu from the App Store and select "View My Account." There should be an option to unhide your purchase. You know what to do.
3. There is also an option to reset all warnings for buying and downloading under "View My Account." Do this, click "Done," sign out of the App Store and quit the App Store.
4. Open the Preferences in safari and select Privacy. Select "Remove All Website Data." Just do it.
5. Launch the app store and sign in.
6. Now, if you "Check for Unfinished Downloads" everything works peachy.
I hope this helps. Not much I can do for your Internet connection though.
