I've spent all day searching Google and trying every command I could find or even think of to update Apache on my server. I am running CentOS 6.5 64 bit. I have uninstalled and reinstalled just to get the same outdated version. I run the command yum update httpd and it runs through the list of repositories and says there are no updates found. I know the newest update is 2.4.10 but I'm having the dangdest time trying to get that version to either update from current version or install with new installation. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

While Apache 2.4.10 is the latest version from Apache, it is not the latest version in Centos 6.5. On CentOS 6.5 the latest version is 2.2.15. If you really want Apache 2.4 you need to add a repo that contains it. See this question for an example
