You may need to put the iPad in recovery mode to restore it.

My App Store does not work when trying to update applications

My Apo store does not work when I try to update applications that need to be updated

There are a number of other threads from people reporting a problem with a blank Updates tab in the App Store app - it looks like there is a problem at Apple's end which they need to fix.
Some posts are suggesting that you if you go into the Purchased tab in the App Store app you might be able to update the apps from there, though you will need to scroll through the list to find those with updates and individually update them.

HT6208 My password does not work in trying to update to ios 7.1.1

Anyone got an issue with their password trying to update to ios 7.1.1

It is requesting the 4 digit pass code that you use to wake/unlock your ipad from sleep.

HT5085 Hi my ipad 2 works well with ios7 but just when i updated it to ios 8 after downloading the software it freezes with a message on the screen an itune icon with the sign of the charger pointing an arrow upwards towads the itunes can you help

I am trying to update to ios 8 but after downloading a message is come up on the screen when trying to reboot. here is the message. an itune icon with itunes written under the icon then a charger sighn pointing an arrow towards the itune icon it will not reboot

That image means that it's gone into recovery mode - you will need to connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes (you will need the current version of iTunes installed on your computer)and you should be able to use that to reset your iPad back to factory defaults, you can then restore/resync your content to it.

Tried to update iPhone 4 with iOS7, now it is frozen with an iTunes icon and the recharger icon. I can't get into anything. Restarting hasn't helped

I tried to update my iPhone 4 with the new Apple iOS7. Now my phone is locked with an iTunes icon and my recharger icon. I can't turn it on or get into anything. I can't even receive calls on my phone. HELP!

Same thing happend to my Girlfriend, you will have to connect to the computer and snyc with iTunes. Make sure you update your iTunes software. we had to click on "Restore iphone...". phone updated and she lost everything on phone , we then tried to get everything back and only thing we got was her apps . Good luck hope everything turns out better then us. .

How come my mini iPad is not working after trying to update apps?

My mini iPad is repeatedly showing me a black screen with a, "white apple," in the middle & then a couple of minutes later it turns off for a few minutes. Then the black screen with the, "white apple," in the middle comes back on again and then it goes black again. Sometimes the black screen would lighten and the whole pattern of these "screens" would start over again. It's been doing this for hours since I fell asleep.
This happened when I was trying to update 4-5 apps at the same time. It had trouble updating the, "Pinterest app." It failed once and I retried it and that's when my mini ipad started to not work. I can't use it at all. I never had trouble updating several apps at one time before. I was at home using my wifi and my wifi strength was at its maximum for the iPad.
The battery was at 40 something%, so I charged it over night. It has the latest iOS update software. I had downloaded that yesterday.
I plugged it into iTunes on my computer and the same thing is happening. It's picking up my icloud stuff like my music and videos and my computer is trying to import photos from my mini ipad automatically, but my iPad isn't fully recognizable on iTunes. I get 2 error messages. One says, "iTunes was unable to load data class information from Sync Services. Reconnect or try again later." I also get an error when trying to import photos (just to try it out). The other error message says, "The iPad cannot be sync because this iPad cannot be found."
And so, I unplugged it and plugged it back in and I get the same response. My iTunes is the latest version.
I don't have warranty on this iPad and I spent like $500 on this one. I'm kinda worried...?
Any kind of response would be appreciated....

First, try a system reset although I can't give you any confidence. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

ITunes error - will not work after trying to update to 7.2, then to 7.3

I have tried to update to both 7.2 and to 7.3, but both updates have failed. Now I am stuck on 7.1 with an error, where my iTunes will not operate and I cannot uninstall because it comes up with the same error that I get when I try to install or uninstall.
Below are links to images of the errors:
Here is the error I have currently:

I would appreciate your assistance!

It sounds as though you need this article on trouble installing iTunes:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93976
You need the section at the end after "Important: A majority of customers..."
I think you need to do a full removal of iTunes and quciktime with clean up. But the important bit is to clean up the installer files with the MS Installer Clean Up Utility.
If cleanup doesn't seem to work, it is worth checking you have the right version of the Windows installer. If you find it in add remove programs, it should say "Windows Installer 3.1 (KB893803)"

hi - i think you should not use 'xhost +' - it's not secure and you shouldn't need it....
in your .bashrc or .cshrc or whatever, you should have setenv DISPLAY .0 or the equivalent export...
then ssh -Y hostname should be all you need... no xhost, and not setting DISPLAY every time...
could you enter the following command from a terminal window and post back the results?
grep X11 /etc/ssh*_config
cheers

Keyboard and Mousepad does not work after installing windows support software.

I was able to successfully install windows 8.1 64bit on an late 2012 iMac. I went through the installation just fine with the mousepad and keyboard. I went into the desktop and open up the files and went to computer to download the windows support software. After it was done installing the windows support software, my mouse and my keyboard stopped working completely. I couldn't even click "finish" on the download. I turned the computer off by pressing the power button, then turned it back on. I held the option key and the Macintosh HD and Windows showed up. I turned the mousepad and keyboard back on and it was working again. So I clicked on Windows and as I enter the startup screen, the mouse and keyboard stopped working again.
Computer: iMac 21.5 in. late 2012
Used Windows 8.1 Pro 64bit
The keyboard and mousepad that I have is bluetooth.
