Problems with App Store...Keeps on downloading the same update!

Hi all,
I have a problem with updates from the App Store.
For example, I updated iPhoto and that was successful. It was about 1.6GB.
I opened up iPhoto and all was good.
Now when I go to the App Store it keeps telling me that I have the same update still waiting for me despite I have already done the update.
This is also happening with a few other programs as well which can be seen below:
So, now I have the situation where iPhoto is again trying to download (and waste 1.6GB) the same update and as a consequence I cannot use iPhoto because it is paused and when I resume the download (which has already been done twice) I loose another 1.6GB of my download limit.
I have emailed Apple about this but all they could do is refer me to some links where you can hide purchases made via the App Store.
How can I fix the above issue please.
It is very annoying to always see the red circle with the number 5 in it where all those updates have already been done but App Store thinks I haven't done them.
Any help much appreciated,

  • Does anyone has problems with Apps store whenever u rotate the ipad the 4th generation?

    Hi,
       I have problems with Apps Store whenever I rotate the device it will just auto exit from the apps store and back to home screen.

    Try a rest: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the iPad shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the iPad back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.

  • Why is the App Store unable to download the Xcode update?

    After installing Yosemite, I went to the App Store to update several apps. Most were updated without any difficulty. However, when it got to the Xcode update for v6.1, I get the message, "An error occurred during purchase." with buttons to Cancel or Retry. Multiple tries produce the same result. The information block states the price is "Free" as it always has been. Something needs repair.
    Thank you,
    Doug

  • Does anyone know why the App store keeps repeating that the iTunes update needs to be downloaded?

    Just downloaded Yosemite, and then did the update for iTunes. I then noticed that it was still telling me that it needed to be updated, so did it again, thinking it had not worked. Still said it was needing an update. When I opened iTunes it has been updated, but still it says the update is available!

    Go into System information (Option key down + apple logo) . Click on Applications and see if iTunes is located in a different location or not.
    If you have multiple copies of iTunes and if its the external hard disk . Remove the drive and see if it shows the update again...

  • I upgraded MacBook Pro (13-inch, Early 2011) to yosemite. I have no more access to Finder, App Store and some apps. Since I have no access to App Store I cannot download the missing  parts. How can I get access to App Store?

    I upgraded MacBook Pro (13-inch, Early 2011) to yosemite. I have no more access to Finder, App Store and some apps. Since I have no access to App Store I cannot download the missing  parts. How can I get access to App Store?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    What do you mean by having no access to those apps? Can you start up your Mac and work with it, and only some OS X apps do not work?
    Anyway, what you can try is to reinstall OS X. To do this, hold Command and R keys while your Mac is starting up and reinstall OS X. You will not lose any file.

    I purchased an app when I had my iPhone 4s.  I went to the app store to re download the app and I was charged for the app again after I downloaded the app.

    IPhone and iPad have different formats.   You would have to purchase the iPad version.   This isn't true of all apps, some work on both iPad and iPod/iPhone (like most games).

    Even though I am logged into the apple website with my apple id, I am unable to log into the App Store.  It's the same account.

    Back up all data.
    Step 1
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Restart the computer and test.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    Log out, log back in, and test. If there's no improvement, continue.
    Step 2
    Reset your computer’s PRAM.

  • Is anyone else having problems with syncing your phone & iPad since the last update?

    is anyone else having problems with syncing your phone & iPad since the last update?

    Here's the problems I'm having with iPad 2 and iOS 5.1:
    Okay ... so, because I had less than a 1 Gig left (as reported by iTunes) on my 64Gig iPad, and the majority of the space was being used by "Photos" ... I decided to not keep my PC photos directory in sync with my iPad (Windows 7). So, in iTunes, I unchecked the option to sync computer photos to the iPad. I got the standard popup warning message that my iPad would not contain those albums after the next sync. I clicked OK and proceeded to sync expecting to have lots of space freed up.
    But weird things happened after syncing.
    (1) I still have all my photos on my iPad .... nothing disappeared at all. (And performed multiple syncs to try to force the change ... still nothing has been removed from my iPad.)
    (2) Somehow, I gained 20 Gigs of free space, as reported by both iTunes and my iPad as well.
    Anyone know what's going on here?
    I do have iMovie and another movie making app, Avid. Both of these contain projects that refer to photos in albums that were supposed to be removed after the sync ... but I can't imagine that would keep them there. Anyone have any ideas?
    I also installed the iPad app, iPhoto. I noticed that it build a directory listing and continuously want to update that listing from time to time.
    Would any of these things cause the iTunes photo sync changes to be ignored? And, how did I get free space to report back with an additional 19Gig or so, when there's no change at all.
    Unsure what's going on ...

    Hello JohnnyChin95,
    You absolutely can just reinstall OS X Mavericks without having to erase and install. The steps to do that are almost the same as the only thing you do differently is that you do not go to Disk Utility to erase the drive. Just go to the Reinstall OS X option and pick your Hard Drive and follow the on screen instructions to get it going. Check out the article below for the step by step process.
