What are the problems with Update 14.2 for Pages, Keynote, Numbers, GarageBand?

Have a new MacBookPro M4 16 mg 1T storage: Afraid to install the new 14.2 update for Pages, Keynote, Numbers, GarageBand. All the discussions indicate login problems after the update.

Mac App Store glitch? "Install" button disappears on rollover. (More inside) Trying to download certain apps, when I rollover the "Install" pop up box (after clicking the "Get" and "Install" buttons beside the app name itself), the Install button disappears, then reappears when I take move the cursor off the box. Like it's playing hide-n-seek. Things I've tried: Making sure the apps are compatible with my Mac; restarting, making sure all updates are current. I'm on Mac Mic M4 with Sequoia 15.5

Available app updates are not showing in App Store->Updates Recenlty, I noticed that I'm not geeting any updates for existing apps in my MacBook Pro. I was using MacOS 12.6.1 and I noticed that one of my app was not working properly. Then, I checked that app in App Store and it was showing an update is available but the same thing is not showing in App Store->Updates. I upgraded my MacOS to 12.6.2 and then 13.1 too. But the problem is still persistent. I have checked few apps individually like Pages, Numbers, iMovies, Keynotes etc. on App Store and I found that updates are available but these updates not showing in App Store->Updates. Please help me.

Numbers and Pages will not Update with OS Ventura Version 13.3.1 (a) I got a notice that said Numbers had an available update. I go to the App store and sure enough it shows Update. I select the update sign in with my user name and password. I am signed into the App Store now. When i select download I get the window that says "Sign In to the iTunes Store" and "If you have an Apple ID, sign in with it here". There is a Cancel and Download button. I select Download. The box goes away for about 1/2 a second and then comes right back up asking me the same "Sign In to the iTunes Store" and "If you have an Apple ID, sign in with it here". It is an endless loop. I know my login and password are good and I am logged in. Any idea why this is happening? same thing happens when I try to update Pages too.

Don't believe everything you read here or on the Internet. I have no issues with any of these Apple applications.

Visit the Mac App Store and then install Pages, Numbers, and Keynote v14.3. You may or may not wish to disable Apple Intelligence in System Settings. It does provide additional tools for Pages. I have it off.
