If you hover your mouse over the listing in the Purchases Tab in the Mac App Store you will see a x in a circle by Install / Installed button, if you click that it will hide the App, and you will not see updates listed. You can unhide the App by going into your account under Store>View My Account.

Hello,
I am trying to update all the software that is installed on my MacBook Pro (Late 2011). Do you think this makes sense? For example I am not using iPhoto but LightRoom but I am updating iPhoto when I get the reminder.
Any comments?

If you have the software on your computer, you should update it in case you ever use it. iPhoto updates aren't all that often and are usually fairly small so it shouldn't be much of an issue.

As James said, hide the apps in question, Apple has instructions on how to hide and unhide purchases.

Thank you for the comment. I also think that all software including the ones preinstalled in the system should be up-to-date. I will keep updating my system.
