my new mac came ilife 11 pre-installed , in mac app store purchases section says iphoto, imovie , garageband not installed (install button clickable). when click it says "iphoto installed on computer. choose software update apple menu check available updates". how make install button grey out rest of installed apps?
these applications not 'grey out' because not purchased mac app store. pre-loaded on computer. mac app store has no way of knowing (to knowledge) ilife '11 (or iwork '09) applications installed until try install them mac app store. it's not apple checks drive installed applications.
believe read somewhere in os x mountain lion ilife , iwork applications tied itunes store account, clearing pre-loaded vs. mac app store purchase confusion. how don't know, maybe software update tie iwork , ilife apps mac app store?
