Office 2013 keeps asking for updates

Hi guys,
Looked around but can't seem to find anything for this. Have a user on office 2013. Win7. Any time he opens up any office application he has a message saying the software needs updating. If we click OK, we get the message saying we are all up to date. If
we close the application down and open it again, or another office app, the update message is back!
Any way to get rid of this?
Thanks

Is your Office a Click-To-Run version or a MSI (traditional) version?
If it’s a MSI version, please go to Windows Update and check if you have installed all updates for Office. If you have all updates installed, and issue still occurs, please try to repair your Office 2013 from Control Panel.
If it’s a Click-To-Run version of Office 2013, by default, Click-to-Run will automatically check for updates in the background. Please retry the update check by disabling and then re-enabling updates in:
File->Account->Update Options.
Also, if you have specified an UpdatePath in the Configuration.xml while deploying Office 2013, please make sure you have an updated source in that path：http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219426(v=office.15).aspx#BKMK_UpdatesElement
If updates still do not work, follow these steps to do an Online Repair:
1.Go to Control Panel
2.Click Programs and Features tab
3.Click on Microsoft Office, then Change
4.Click on Online Repair
5.Click on Repair
Thanks,

  • Have purchased ilife11 garage band but garageband keeps asking for updates

    How do i upate garageband to ilfe11 already purchased and downloaded it

    Hi Paula,
    If I understand correctly you already purchased iLife '11 and updated your computer with it. I'm not exactly sure what you mean when you say that GarageBand (GB) keeps asking for updates. Perhaps this will help. Even though iLife '11 is a new software, there already has been a number of software updates to iPhoto '11, iMovie '11, and GB '11 as well. The new software updates come during weekdays, usually on Tuesday or Wednesday. In general it's advised to check up for new software updates on regular basis. I do it every day from Monday through Friday. Sometimes there is whole bunch of updates available every week, and sometimes there is nothing for some time. So, if by any chance you haven't updated your software since the time you installed iLife '11, it's possible that all these updates are waiting till you do what you have to do, meaning, click on Apple icon in upper left corner of your screen, and then click on Software Update in scroll down menu, after you do that, the box with a message will appear on the screen. If there aren't any updates it will say so, in that case click on Quit. If there is something available, go for it, just follow the instructions. You can update right away or latter, but you need these updates. If you want to be sure that your GB is up to date, open any project, click on GarageBand in menu bar (left upper corner of your screen), then click on Check for Updates in down scroll menu. If there is update available, just follow the instructions, if there is nothing there, the message box will appear saying that your GB is up to date.
    Cheers!

  • Office mac keeps asking for license key with fusion drive

    I'm posting this in case anyone else is having this trouble where Office for Mac 2011 keeps asking for the license key. I have a later 2013 iMac with Fusion drive and never have been able to use office on this computer without entering the key. In talking with Microsoft they removed office and all the files and reinstalled with no help. In speaking with Apple, they said there is a known issue with Microsoft Office and the Fusion drive and Microsoft is working on a patch. Evidently the fusion drive moves the files around and to Microsoft that looks like new hardware so it prompts for the key. Realy annoying! Microsoft

    I'm a certified Apple consultant and I recently hit this issue at an installation. On seven iMacs with the Fusion drive, I deleted the "Thunderbolt Bridge" interface from the Network System Preference. We then rebooted the computers, entered the product key one more time, and so far, the problem has disappeared and survives subsequent rebootings.
    Obviously, if you are frequently networking two Macs using Thunderbolt, this isn't a good long-term solution (though it is easily added back). However, it does appear to work. I have no sound theory as to why it works, except that Office might be interpreting the existence of that bridge as evidence that the software was copied onto a machine instead of properly installed. This is just a wild guess, though.
    I have no idea if it will work for others, but hey, the forums are for throwing out these ideas and seeing if one of them sticks for most people. So...there it is.

  • Outlook 2013 keep asking for password

    Hi,
    We having problem where outlook is keep asking for password every time you start outlook.
    Things I tried
     - I have created new outlook profile - still same problem
     - Clear all passwords from password manager - still same problem
     - Deleted the .OST file - still same problem.
     - Always prompt for logon credentials - this is not tick

    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290684
    Only happening on Office 2013 not office 2007
    One thing I did notices when I was debugging the problem.
    When I removed the office and reinstalled the problem went away for
    whole 1 week but then on Monday it start asking for password again which
    makes be thing that they is something in group policy which is causing
    this.
    We are using
     - Windows 7
     - Office 365 (2013)
     - Our emails are being hosted by Microsoft clod
    I don't know what else to try or check.

    Hi,
    Does this issue happen to all clients or a special one?
    Please first check if Logon network security under More Settings on the Microsoft Exchange
    Security tab is set to a value other than Anonymous Authentication.
    In addition, you may also follow this article to troubleshoot the issue:

  • SBS2008 in combination with Outlook 2013 keeps asking for credentials

    I've got a SBS 2008 server with windows 7 pro clients.
    Some of them use outlook 2010 and some use 2013.
    The users which use the 2013 version has a problem with saving of the credentials.
    Every time they start outlook 2013 they will be asked for credentials and some of them 5 times before it starts.
    The weird thing is: if you click ESC to close the screen that asks for the credentials, outlook still connects to the mailbox.
    Is there someone who can tell me how to fix this problem.

    Hi Willy-Billy,
    Any update? Would you please let me know the current situation of this issue?
    In addition, would you please let me confirm something more?
    Please check if problematic user accounts access mailbox correctly via OWA.
    If you create a new outlook profile for a problematic account, will encounter the same issue?
    As mentioned in the link that Robert provided, please check if you enable
    Always prompt for logon credentials setting in Outlook 2013.
    If you enable this setting, please uncheck and monitor the result.
    Meanwhile, please remove the old credential in
    Credential Manager, then add again. Please check if this issue still persists.
    Please run
    SBS 2008 BPA to collect SBS configuration information and analysis. Then check if you can find some clues.

  • Cards app keeps asking for "update" info

    I was so excited to use the cards app when I got iOS 5.
    I set up the card and everything. When I put in the recipient address (in Canada) the price automatically changed to $4.99 which I thought was cool.
    It goes through all the steps, asks for my CVV which I put in and when it gets to the authorizing stage it says "there is no enoguh info in your iTunes account. Please go to settings --> store and update your account info".
    I've updated everything several times. I've even updated on iTunes on my Mac in case I'm missing something. My CVV never saves, even in iTunes on the PC but it asks for it all the time so I just put it in.
    If this doesn't get resolved soon Apple is losing my $4.99 and I'm going with TouchNote.
    Someone help please?

    Just wondering if you ever got an answer from Apple support about this issue. I sent a card using Touchnote and they said it was sent this morning (created the card last night). Only cost $1.49 to ship internationally...so much cheaper. Card doesn't appear to have an envelope attached though which is a bit of a bummer since I'm sending pictures of family and friends and I'd like that to be somewhat private.

  • HP 1022 - Keeps asking for update

    Whenver I try to print a document using my HP 1022 I get a message telling me there's an update for the driver. When the computer tries to download the update from Apple I get a message telling me it was not possible to contact Apple. I am running Mountain Lion 10.8.2 and I thought that whenever the system is updated, printer drivers are updated too. HP's site confirms this.
    Does anyone know why this is happening?
    TIA

    Hi,
    Try resetting the printing system, then try adding the printer again by clicking the plus sign under Print & Scan:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&docname=c01371980
    If the same persists, click teh Finder icon and then click the Go menu and select Computer.
    Select Macintosh-HD and open teh Library folder.
    Open the Printers folder and move the HP folder to the trash.
    Open the PPDs folder, then navigate to Contents > Resources and search for 1022. move the printer's driver within the search results to the trash and try adding the printer again.
    If there is still no difference download and install the following package and try adding the printer again:

  • CC asking for updates for updated apps.

    I update all apps, but it keeps asking for update for the same apps. I updated them several times today.

    I followed Adobe's direction on how to fix the problem and it worked but only for the five updates that had been showing up repeatedly. They went away but a couple days later two new ones showed up and after I installed them they showed up again a couple days later. Surely you aren't recommending that people have to go in and do the fix for every set of updates are you?
    thanks,
    Jon

  • Since updating my iPhone 3GS on my friends laptop, it keeps asking for her iTunes Id not mine. When I log onto a computer it comes up with my Id but from my phone it's my friends. I don't have an option to change the user Id when it pops up either.

I don't have an option to change the user Id when it pops up either. So I can't update my apps, download songs or games now as it will charge my friend

    Hello vfrio,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like you edited your existing Apple ID to a new email address and changed the password as well. To change this on your computer, you will need to sign out of the old account and into the new Apple ID in iCloud for Windows. Please use the attached article as a further reference. 
    What to do after you change your Apple ID email address or password - Apple Support
    Windows PC
    Open iCloud for Windows and click Sign Out.
    If you're signed out, sign in with your updated Apple ID or password. The data in iCloud will automatically appear on your device after you sign in. 
    If you're signed in with your previous Apple ID:
    Click Sign Out. Depending on what iCloud options are turned on, you'll be asked if you want to make copies or delete iCloud data (Contacts, Calendar, Reminders, Bookmarks, Photo Stream) from your PC. Click Delete. Your data will remain in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
    Sign in with your updated Apple ID or password.
    Have a great day,
    Joe

  • Well I have a new macbook pro and there is a software update available and after i update it, it keeps asking for the same thing to update over and over again! What can be done?

    The App Store version sometimes gives problems. As you can't install 10.8.4 from the App Store, download and install the Combo edition > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1659?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US This edition will work and will update OS X to the most recent version, in that case, 10.8.4

    The latest update for Mountain Lion OS X 10.8.3 does not update.  Keeps asking for Restart but no update.

    Yup, I'm experiencing the exact same thing. 
    I (and many others) are experiencing the same or similar issues with the 10.8.3 update.
    I've sent an response to Apple but have not yet received anything back (yet). 

  • Vista Service Pack 1 wont install. Update keeps asking for it.

    Installed Service Pack 1 with Windows Update. Update History says it was successful but it is not in the Installed Updates and Windows keeps asking for SP1 over and over. Vista SP3 is there.
    I have tried to install it directly, I closed all security programs and fire wall. I looked to see if there is any missing updates. I've restarted the computer. I have followed all the instructions on the support site.
    Service Pack 3 is installed.
    I just don't know what to do.
    I have Vista Home Premium 32bit

    Hi
    To be honest I never had any problems with my Vista updates
    The Vista updates automatically every time when Im online and when new updates are available
    How did you try to update the Vista OS?
    Did you download the SP1 firstly to HDD or did you run an automatic update?
    If the automatic update does not work try to download the SP1 firstly and then start the update procedure:
    The SP1 can be downloaded here:
