App download locking up

I just tried to download my first app. I found it ok and started the download. First a dialog poped up saying "Download Now" with an ok button. I try and press ok and nothing seems to happen. Aftger a little bit another dialog box pops underneath the first one. It has a wait/download now options. I can't press those either. The App store has been sitting in this state for 30 minutes or more.
Any idea how to cancel the download? any idea what is going on?

No.  But thank for asking.

  • Second page of downloaded apps is locked.  How do I get it unlocked?

    New ipad user...For some reason our second page with some downloaded apps is locked up.  Can't open any of them the apps.  First screen is all accessible.  Can't figure out why or how to fix.

    Then try a reset. Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons and let the iPad restart.
    or
    You could also try quitting open apps to see if that helps. Double tap the home button to bring up the task bar, hold down on any app icon until the icons begin to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the corner of the icons to close the apps. If you have a bunch of apps in the task bar, close them all. Then tap the screen (outside of the task bar) to close the task bar. Restart the iPad as described above.
    or
    Are these Apps restricted perhaps? Do you have restrictions set on your iPad? I don't use restrictions so I don't know that much about how it affects apps. Go to Settings>General>Restrictions>On ...? If you can restrict those apps maybe that is why they will not open. Turn restrictions off.

  • How to download apps when locked out mad already.

    Oh wow, thanks! .
    I didn't know that the "download" just-do-it-button was actually the greyed out oval that reads "free". For some reason, I thought Apple would choose a more intuitive identifier, like "click here" or "download" or "install" or else a blue, green, or raised button! Thanks for the assistance and clarification!
    I disagree though that core web applications like flash or gmail sucking is entirely other people than Apple's fault.
    Don't start in on Flash pleeeeeease!! There are already a gazillion threads on it here.
    I don't get the problem with Gmail - are you using it via Safari or via Mail?

  • App download screen frozen

    How do you get rid off the white app download screen after you have downloaded an app.  It seems to have frozen and I cannot do anymore searches on the App Store

    If you still have problems after resetting your iPad (I do) or the problem returns, then try this:
    Settings > iTunes & App Store > Tap on your Apple ID > Sign Out
    Restart your iPad
    Open the App Store
    When you next initiate a download from the appstore you will be prompted for your apple id.
    You may find that you need to repeat this often, particularly if your iPad is afflicted by the same iOS 7 bug as my iPad 3.
    Having seen this on one of two identical iPad rev 3s running iOS 7 (the only difference being the apple id), I suspect this bug relates to the number of apps associated with each particular apple id. If you don't have many apps then you don't get App Store locks ups. The more apps you have, the worse the problem gets. If you sign out of a problematic apple id then the appstore will work properly, at least until you sign in and the appstore loses focus (i.e. if you switch to another app or you iPad goes into standby). At a guess, I'd say that iOS 7 caches the active apple id's purchase history (including free apps), presumably to make the purchased tab work better than if it were entirely server side. I also suspect that if the cache is incomplete or too large the appstore app stalls, leaving you with a white, unpopulated appstore screen or "Unable to connect".
    I hope this helps.

  • Lightroom Help Causes App to Lock-Up

    I am a new user of Lightroom and have loaded it on a Windows 7 64bit Home Edition laptop.  Whenever I click on "Lightroom Help" or "Lightroom Module Help" in the Help menu, the application locks up.  I get the same results with version 3.3 (which I downloaded) and version 3.2 (which is what was in the package I bought).  The application loads Lightroom 64bit by default, but I also loaded the 32bit version to see if it would work there as well.  No combination I try seems to make a difference.  Being that I am a brand new user of Lightroom, not having help available is a big deal to me - and I am not always connected to the internet whenever I am using the app so online help isn't a suitable substitute either.  Additionally, I am concerned that there is something else lurking in the background that is going to cause the app to lock-up that I just haven't discovered yet.
    In the System Event Log, I only see this message accompanied by a 1002 Event code:
    The program lightroom.exe version 3.3.0.10 stopped interacting with Windows and was closed. To see if more information about the problem is available, check the problem history in the Action Center control panel.

    Any ideas on what to do to correct this?

  • TS1702 How to stop an app download when hit accidently

    How do you stop an app download when you accidentally hit the download button on iPad 3?

    I think the question isn't about purchasing but actually downloading. For example if you see that there is an update available and you start to download, lose internet connection, the application will essentially be locked from use until the update finishes.
    I ran into this problem on holiday where I tried to update Camera Awesome but the internet was painfully slow (56k or less speeds). The application started to download but was taking literally hours to complete. In the meantime I couldn't access any of the photos within that application or use it for new pictures.
    In short, any application that is being downloaded, installed, etc will be unavailable until that process completes.

    Try downloading any free app to resync your iTunes account.

  • I purchased and in-app download and have a receipt but it is still not showing, so where is it?

    I purchased an in-app download for Little generals and have a receipt, but it is still not showing up. Ive tried all the usual sign in then back out...shutting on and off but none of this works. The file just seems that it does not exist even though they have already charged my credit card. So, WHAT GIVES???
    PS: And the people on the other end of the phone line seem to be completly clueless about their own products..

    If you don't have the Firefox button, you're using the classic view. To restore the new view of Firefox (Changed in Version 4):
    * View > Toolbars > Menubar [Uncheck]
    In Firefox 6 you can use this to clear your history/other offline content:
    Click on the Firefox button on top left part of your browser:
    * History > Clear Recent History
    There you can select what you want to clear.
    If you want to see the menu bar you can press alt on your keyboard so you can see file/view/...
    Also for activating it to always be there follow this (Classic view of Firefox):
    * Firefox > Options > Menu Bar
    Don't forget to hit the 'Solved it' button if this solved your problem so the topic will be closed.

  • How do I turn off the feature that allows the duplication of App downloads to more than one phone? As in my wife downloads an app and I get a dulpicate download on my phone.

    How do I turn off the feature that allows the duplication of App downloads to more than one phone? As in my wife downloads an app and I get a dulpicate download on my phone.

    To disable that feature it will depend on whether or not you sync everything in the cloud using Apple's iCloud, OR if you both use the same desktop/laptop computer with iTunes. Here is a link to the Apple support page in regards to the automatic download feature included with your iPhone and corresponding softwares such as iTunes.

    Follow those instructions and it will all be taken care of.

  • Reg iPhone Mail App (downloading of emails)

    Hi,
    Does iPhone download the entire email when we check for emails?
    Scenario:
    - Open iPhone mail app
    - receive 10 emails
    - open the email to read the contents
    - get ‘loading’ icon..seems as if that’s when it’s trying to get the email
    - the contents received in few seconds depending on the email
    - move on to next email…and see the same loading icon
    Is it that mail app downloads just the headers and the content is downloaded when you actually open that particular email? Ideally, I would like the email to be downloaded completely to my phone…this way I can quickly check my emails and move across the messages.
    I believe Blackberry works differently where the entire email is downloaded and only attachment is downloaded when you try to access it.
    Thanks,

    I have just received the new iphone 4th generation. I have a data plane for 200mb per month.
    My question is wether iphone downloads the whole email message or if it downloads only the headers? If it downloads the whole message, can I opt for only the headers?
    It seems from the first day of use it downloads all messages including the attachments and thus my data usage is huge. In my old Nokia phone only when I required to read the email it will go ahead to download the whole message-is this possible with iphone?
    Marios.

  • I have tried to download Mavericks on my 2010 iMac(10.6.8), but nothing happens, not even the install app downloads, also I tried to download chrome, I moved it to the applications folder and when I opened the folder it wasn't there

    I have tried to download Mavericks on my 2010 iMac(10.6.8), but nothing happens, not even the install app downloads, also I tried to download chrome, I moved it to the applications folder and when I opened the folder it wasn't there. I have a 1tb hard drive that is mostly empty. By the way I just got this imac used from a reseller.

    Mavericks downloads into the Applications folder, where you can install it.   Some Mac App Store Troubleshooting information and how to resume a download that was interrupted; some of the information here might get you an answer.   Failing that, try contacting Apple Support.

  • Fox news app downloads but won't open

    Continue to have trouble getting some apps to work. The Fox News app downloads ok but when I try to use it it won't open. Have had the same problem with other apps (Popular Science) and just gave up. Any help would be appreciated.

    iPad up to date?
    Connect your iPad to your computer, launch iTunes.
    Select the iPad under Devices.
    Select the Summary tab from the menu then click: Check for Updates
    Hold down the Fox News app until it jiggles then tap the circle with an x then tap Delete.
    Reset your iPad.
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    Now re download the Fox News app.

  • How do I use apps downloaded in itunes on windows7?

    How do I use apps downloaded in itunes on windows 7 and can I put them on iPod touch gen2 and gen4? thanks to any help I can get with this would be fun to play some of the games apps

    You can't use the apps on your computer, they can only be used on iOS devices : iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches. Depending on which version of iOS you have on your iPod Touches (Settings > General > About > Version) then you should be able to sync most of the apps to them, especially the newer model - an app's requirements, including the minimum iOS version, are listed on the left-hand side of its description page in the store.
    To sync the apps, connect and select the iPod on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes, and then on the right-hand side on the Apps select which apps you want to sync, and then sync/apply that selection

    I have an Apple iphone 4s and for the last 4 weeks I cannot download or update any apps. I have an iPad and a Mac book pro and the apps download on these devices fine. My phone tells me that I have 12 updates but when I press update all or update any individually nothing happens at all. It also does not ask me for my password any more but my iPad and mac book do.
    I have signed in and out of the app store and the password is correct. I have tried both kinds of reboot but that did nothing. I have tried to update the apps by connecting phone to Mac book pro...it shows the apps being download on the Mac book and says it will sync them to my phone but it does not. Everything else on my phone works fine.
    Any ideas ...Please!

    Thank you, this has resolved both the iphone and ipad problem immediately.  I am concerned that I may have a problem with apps that I bought under my old  AppleID as they will not be recognised.  Any suggestions for this please?

  • Looking for an App to Lock the Screen while Playing a Movie

    I've been looking for either an app to lock the screen (not turn the screen off like the button on top of the phone) while playing a movie or a media player that will prohibit you from pressing buttons while a movie is playing. The reason I'm looking for this is my son likes to watch movies on my iPhone while we're in the grocery store, but I spend more time restarting the movie or navigating back to the iPod app and restarting the movie than he spends watching it! He likes to press the "done" button or home button which ends the movie. So an app that would prohibit that would be GREAT, but I haven't been able to find one so far. Any suggestions?

    An app will not be able to do this.
    Sorry.
