Restore the iphone as new.

App Store on the iPad (iOS 6), can you view the Top Charts for iPhone?

In the App Store on the iPad (iOS 6) can you view the Top Charts for iPhone? It used to be possible in a previous version of iOS.

disregard post.

How do you change your user name associated with the app store on the iphone 3G. When attempting to update, it is using an old email address that has since been changed at the apple site. The problem is that my phone does not seem to recognize this.

I have exausted my ideas, and turn to the forum, prior to paying for something that may be a 2second simple fix. Please help if you can. Let me know if you need more info to understand my dilema.
Thanks.

Apps are permanently tied to the Apple ID used to purchase them. You will always be asked for the password associated with this ID when updating apps, regardless of whether or not you are using this ID for current purchases. The only way to stop this is to delete the old apps from your phone and iTunes and repurchase them with your current ID.
Edit: to change the ID used for future purchases on your phone, go to Settings>Store>Apple ID, tap the ID shown, sign out, sign back in using the new ID. As explained above, you will still be prompted with the old ID when updating apps purchase with the older ID.

I am having trouble in the app store after upgrading to iPhone 5 and iOS 6

I am having trouble since upgrading from iPhone 4s to iPhone 5. The "restore" feature never completed after activation of the new phone (it was close, only "find my iphone" app did not complete - it looked like it is forever trying to download). But now, when I have tried to update apps, or even purchase new (free or paid) apps, the store does not let me. It flashes error messages on my screen so quickly they cannot be read (the first is something about signing in to the store with an apple ID). I have seen other similar threads and have tried logging out and into the app store from the settings menu.
I also cannot get any of my music to transfer to the iPhone (from the icloud). It seems to be trying to but I just get the spinning wheel of death.
Any thoughts or help out there would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Hello there, Missy.
First thing I would recommend is to check your downloads queue to make sure there is not an interrupted download per the following Knowledge Base article:
iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1725
If your download was interrupted using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
1. From the Home screen, tap the iTunes app.
2. For iPhone or iPod touch, tap More > Downloads. For iPad, tap Downloads.
3. Enter your account name and password if prompted.
4. Tap the blue download arrow to resume.
If you can't complete the download on your iOS device, you can download it in iTunes on your Mac or PC and then sync it to your iOS device. You can also transfer purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer.
For Apps, you can also try tapping on the application icon to resume the download, as outline in this featured discussion:
App updates won't download on my...: Apple Support Communities
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4111336
Try tapping the App, so that it changes to Paused instead of Waiting, then tap it again to resume the install.
Make sure you don't have any paused downloads in other apps either, like the App Store or iTunes Store.
If that doesn't do it, try resetting or restoring the iPhone.

Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

Why doesn't the App Store prompt for older versions on first download?

I thought Apple user interfaces were supposed to be slick. Here's what I have to do to install an app. I've inherited a first generation iPad from a friend. The iPad was fully erased and set back to factory defaults before I got it. I have created my Apple ID and started customising the machine to suit me. The machine is running the very latest version of IOS it is capable of supporting 5.1.1. So I gaily visit the app store and start trying to install a few apps I like. Of course today 90% of the apps in the store are designed for IOS 6 or later and simply refuse to install at all. So here is the rather less than slick workaround I have to do.
First I have to put the iPad away and go to my Windows 8.1 Desktop computer running iTunes. I log in using my Apple ID, visit the App Store, pick the apps I want and download a few that I'd like to my computer. I then switch back to using the iPad. Now I see the apps I've downloaded to the computer attempting to install themselves on the iPad. If I've downloaded more than one app. This fails for all the apps. I have to wait for all the apps to fail, then delete them from the iPad and then visit the App Store on the iPad and navigate to Purchased Apps section. Now I can see my apps waiting and can attempt to install them one at a time. If I do this then, each app attempts to install singly, fails, and then I am gracefully asked if I'd like to download an older version of the app. If I do that the download and install works - hooray! I then repeat this process for the remaining apps. Next time I need to install any apps I have to repeat the whole process. It's not what I'd call slick.
Why on earth doesn't the App Store simply prompt for an older version of the app when I first want to install it?
Why do I have to do the rigmarole of switching to my PC, downloading there, and then switching back to the iPad again just to force the "Would you like to download an older version of the App" prompt to appear?
I'm not impressed so far.

No one here can speak for Apple since we are all just users like you. Perhaps the answer is as simple as this. This feature just rolled out recently. Perhaps Apple thought it was important enough to make it available before they had built out the whole solution.
Just a thought.

Is there a way to clear the app stores "Not on this iphone" list of previously downloaded apps?

with the new update there is a way to download all your old apps. however my list is immensly long, and i am looking for a way to clear or reset the list.
the list im referring to is on my iphone 4, in the app store, under the tab "Updates" and "Not on this Iphone" alot of these apps are old or i have no interest ever downloading again and would prefer to not have them showing

There are many threads that have recently been posted addressing this matter. Currently iTunes and iOS displays all Apps ever downloaded and you can't control which ones you would like to delete from that list permanently and which you would like to keep in the Cloud, so to speak.

The App Store icon can't be deleted. You either moved it - to another home screen page or inside a folder, or set a restriction so it doesn't show.
1. Settings > General > Restrictions > (Allow) Installing Apps > ON.
2. Search all Home Screen pages and inside folders
3. Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout.

I some how deleted the safari app on my iphone as well as my app store and the itunes store app how do i get it back?

They are pre-installed apps and therefore cannot be deleted so you may have inadvertently moved them onto a screen or into a folder. Check all screens and folders and do a search in Spotlight, it will tell you if the apps are still on your iPhone but unfortunately not where it is. If you find them on one or your screens or in a folder, press the icon until it wiggles and then drag it back to where you want it. Alternatively you can reset your home screen in Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout. Also check Settings>General>Restrictions and make sure Safari, iTunes and Installing Apps and Deleting Apps are all ON.

THANK YOU

You can't delete default apps. Check your restrictions in Settings/General/Restrictions/App Installation.
If enabled, you can't find the AppStore on any screen. Disable the restriction and it will show up again.

My app store application on my iPhone 4S is not accepting my password for one of my Apple ids. I have a feeling it is because the ID isn't correct, it should be my email address and it is not just 1st portion.

My app store application on my IPhone 4S is not accepting my Apple ID and password. The ID comes up, but I don't think it is totally correct as it doesn't have the complete email address which is actually my ID. I know the password is correct because I just changed it even though I knew what my last one was, I changed to be extra sure. I am not sure how to change the ID in the App Store application.

To change the ID:
Settings > Store > Apple ID. Sign Out of the old and in with the new.

.local indicates local activity by the computer host Williams-macbook-pro.local=hostname@domain . The UID of 501 is the standard UID of a local computer administrator.
Copy and paste this little script in your terminal:
if [ "SSH_CONNECTION ]; then
echo I am remote
else
echo I am local
fi
A return of "i am local" ensures there is no remote connection to your machine (through SSH).
In the future, to avoid remote entry, I would recommend not posting your IP address though.

You need to go to Date & Time and change the date ahead more than a year. Then try and then you can change the date back.

Update it from iTunes on a computer as described at the bottom of this article; there isn't a Software Update option in General on iOS versions prior to 5.0. It can only be updated directly to the newest iOS release supported by the device’s hardware, which is iOS 6.1.6 for an iPhone 3GS.
