Hi, I'm Jonathan and bought a M1 Mac mini previous month. I signed in with my Apple ID after I completed setup. But now I get notifications from the App Store saying that iMovie, Keynote, Numbers and Pages must be updated.
When I click "Update All", I get the notification that the apps can't be updated with my Apple ID.
Can someone help me solve this problem?
Mac mini 2018 or later
I remember something similar from a long time ago with bundled, pre-installed applications. They were basically installed with no Apple ID and in order to update them you have to be using the same Apple ID that was used to install them. Back up your computer, then delete iMovie and re-download it from the Mac App Store with your ID.

If the above doesn't work, I had this happen to me when I bought my current computer. I finally had to contact Apple Support and I was passed to Level 2 support. They gave me redemption/download codes to which allowed me to download the applications using my Apple ID.
Okay. Thank you!
