Update doesn't show

[jmcbade]

I have Photo and Designer.  I run Catalina on both my desktop and my laptop.  These apps showed up to be updated on my laptop but the apps don't show up to be updated ever on my Desktop.  I have rebooted.

What can I do?

Thanks,

-John

Hi Jmcbade,

Where did you purchase the apps from?

Initially from the App Store I believe.

what is frustrating is my MacBook Pro showed the update and updated fine.  My desktop is not showing the update in the App Store.

Is it not showing an update, or not showing that you've purchased it?

Have you tried signing out of the Mac App Store (not your computer), and signing in again?

Have you tried refreshing the Store?

If none of the standard fixes (above) work, some users have reported that going to the Purchased tab in the Store and downloading gets them the update.
