Why won't my apps download on new ipad mini?

My apps will not download on my new ipad mini?  They remain in the "waiting" stage for days.   have tried deleting and re-downloading one by one, but have not had any success.

I was having the same problem and I tried the following and now everything is working fine:
Reset Network Settings. Resetting your network settings is a fast, easy way to trouble shoot your WiFi connection issues on your iPad Mini, and also on your iPad and iPhone as well.  Resetting your network settings allows your device to flush out all cache information from your wireless network, DNS and nameserver settings, etc… basically it allows your device to start fresh on your wireless network.Here’s how to reset your network settings on your iPad Mini (iPhone and iPad as well).
Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Tap “Settings” icon on your homepage > tap the “General” option > tap on “Reset” > then finally tap on “Reset Network Settings”. Your iPad will restart.
Renew IP Address.
Settings > Wifi > Tap the Blue Arrow (right-hand side) next to the network that you connect to
Click Auto under HTTP Proxy
Click Renew Lease
Connect to your selected network
Try Safari, then YouTube, then try downloading a free app.
If you still do not have appropriate connectivity after this, take to your local Apple Store/Reseller and test, fix, or replace.

  • Why won't my apps download on my iPad mini?, Why won't my apps download on my iPad mini?

    I  have recently been bought an iPad mini- and lately I have been trying to download apps but it just says 'waiting'. I have tried turning the device on and off again, deleting the app and reinstalling it but still no luck!
    Can someone suggest what I can do? Or is this just a generic problem with all the iPad mini's?

    I haven't had any problems with the 2 mini's we have.
    Are you trying to download OTA [over the air] or connected to a computer...try and switch it up if you haven't tried both options.
    If that doesn't work, reboot your device by holding the lock button and home button simultaneously until you see the apple logo, then let go of the buttons and let it reboot.  See if that helps.

  • Why won't my music download on my ipad mini?

    Can anyone tell my why I can't download my iTunes music to my ipad mini?

    You should provide more exact symptoms.  What are you trying?  What is or is not happening?
    With the miniscule information you have supplied, the causes could range from no WiFi connection to an Apple ID mismatch being used in syncing.  Those are just two possibilities that quickly come to mind.

  • TS1702 Why won't my apps install on my ipad? it keeps waiting. Please help

    Why won't my apps install on my iPad, it just keeps waiting. Please help.
    Thanks.

    These are all steps that have worked for some other users in the past. They may not work for you, but they are worth a try.
    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
    You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.

  • Why won't videos play on my new iPad 2 14gb? They either constantly buffer, stop and I have to press play again, play sound only etc.

    Why won't videos play on my new iPad 2 14gb? They either constantly buffer, stop and I have to press play again, play sound only etc.

    Thanks .Ralph.  The problem is only on the iPad 2only.  I have an iPad 1 as well and it never had the problem.  The only videos that I have tried are you tube and the tutorials on apple.com.  I have absolutely no problem on either of my laptops or desktop PC's.  Only the iPad 2.    I am a new Apple user, so not very familiar yet with the product, but this is an absolute deal breaker for me.  With Apple's reputation I was not expecting any such problems and it is beyond my skill set to solve it.  Very frustrating.  Again, no problem with you tube videos.  I don't watch movies, so am not a Netflix member and haven't tried that yet, only you tube videos and apple.com tutorial videos.  I have to watch those on my laptop.  Again, I found a fix to the you tube problem.  It was a link to a site.  www.youtube/html5.  html5 video player trial that you click on and once done, the videos on the you tube app started working great.  They were doing the same thing as the tutorial videos prior to that.  No such luck with the other web videos, at least the ones that i have tried. Hope this is enough info and understandable. You might check out the html5 site.  I didn't thoroughly understand why, but it worked.  You may understand it better.  I am a proficient user, but far from an I.t. Pro.  I have read Many posts with similar problems, but no simple solutions and the ones I did try didn't work.  Speed tested well.  Channel is set to auto and always different than neighboring networks, usually channel 11.  Tried disabling QOS as suggested....no good.   I am completely stumped.   Any help is greatly appreciated.  Thanks very much for you time and helpful info.

  • Why won't iOS 6 download on my iPad?

    iOS 6 has just come out and I have tied to download it from my iPad. When I download it get to about 15% and then it says there was an error so it can't download. Does anyone know what I can do? Oh by the way it is the new iPad.

    I'm hoping someone here can assist me as well... Neither my iPhone 4S nor my iPad 2 are even giving me the option to update to iOS 6. Both devices state:
    iOS5.1.1
    Your software is up to date
    I've shutdown, reset, etc. and still there is nothing referencing the new iOS. I don't think I'd be so bothered if it were just one device, but again, neither of my devices have the option.
    Would anyone happen to know why that may be? Any help you can provide would be appreciated and thanks in advance.
    Best regards!

  • HT1386 How do I sync all my apps to my new Ipad mini and not my music?*

    I have just bought an Ipad mini. I already have an ipod touch. I wish to keep my ipod for music, and the mini for apps, mail, safari etc etc iefor everything but my music. How can I sync my mini without syncing my music. Even if I wanted to my 16gig mini will not take the 30 odd gigs worth of music I have on itunes. So want to avoid an issue before it happens- which would happen with auto sync. Help please. I am a relatively new (baby boomer!) apple convert, so please be gentle wtih your answers......ie simple text!  

    Just check/unchedk the boxes so that Music is not synced.  See step 3 below and uncheck the Sync Music box.

  • TS1702 why won't an app downloaded on computer sync to my iphone

    I just downloaded an app from the app store online, but the app is not syncing to my iphone 4 in order to use it. I need help?

    I find the easiest way to transfer photos from iphoto or your computer in general onto your iPhone is to select the ones you want and click share then either iMessage or email them to yourself, its much faster and I don't know about you but i find iTunes to be a real pain when you sync photos because it always messes up your albums on your phone!

  • Why is the youtube app not the new ipad

    why dont i have the youtube app thingy that used to be there

    Apple decided to remove google apps from being included in iOS. Google released an iPhone version of YouTube that you could install while we all patiently (or not) wait for google to make it universal...
