An app I purchased will not install

I purchased an app a while ago.  I had to re-set my phone and managed to get all of my apps back on - except this one.  I can see it in my apps with the button to install.  When I click install it changes to will install - but it doesn't.  Anyone know how I can get round this without having to pay another £3.99 for the app?

You need to use the Exact same Apple ID when going into the iTunes Store on your iPhone that you used when you originally purchased the App.  When you get into the iTunes Store go to your Account there and look at your "Purchased Items" list for the App to redownload for free.

    1. Checked all your homescreens for them
    2. Have you hidden them by setting an age rating on Settings>General>Restrictions> Apps ?

  • IPad 2 Restore - Apps Will NOT Install

    I have recently been having intermittent problems with my home button being unresponsive on my iPad 2.  I decided I would try a restore to see if this would resolve the problem.  The home button issue may be better (more time will tell) but whoa did this create an entire new set of challenges.
    What I did:
    1) Went into iTunes to update all apps afterwards performed multiple syncs and backups just to be safe.
    2) After restore to factory settings was completed I attempted to restore iPad 2 to my latest backup from earlier in the morning.
    3) Attempted restore multiple times each time an error message states:  The app "x" was not installed on the iPad because the app could not be found
    4) The 26 missing Apps appear in iTunes with a "Will Install" button.  Pressing this button changes it to "Install".  Attempted several additional syncs but apps would not appear on iPad.  I also tried to restore with the iPad off, USB disconnected, holding down the home button, attaching the USB Factory Restore to no avail.  All of the missing apps are current and available in iTunes such as:  Amazon, Google, Facebook, LinkedIn, AroundMe, Yelp, Cards, BBC News, etc...you get it...common basic apps all gone missing.
    5) Went into iTunes Store on the iPad 2.  Searched in folder for Not on this iPad and Purchased.  Several purchased apps were missing from the list but some were there.  I tried to manually download the apps that were listed from the Cloud as well as manually enter the app name to re-download and install.  All of my missing apps when searched had the Cloud download icon even if they didn't appear in the Not on this iPad or Purchased screens.
    6) I am currently attempting to download all the missing apps from the Cloud and will try another sync.
    7) What should have been a very short an easy restore has now gone on for over 5 hours as I try multiple syncs, restarts, restores...
    Does anyone know what is happening and how to prevent it in the future?
    All of my software is up to date.  I am running OS X 10.8.4, iOS 6.1.3, all apps were updated on both device and iTunes library this morning prior to restore. 
    My iTunes settings for backups is set to iCloud automotic however I performed a backup to computer before attempting the initial restore.
    Please help!
    Thanks!!!

    I have a similar issue. I recently purchased an iPad Mini, and I started off by backing it up from the apps I had on my iPhone. Now, I have a number of apps that never downloaded and that I don't want on the iPad. Some of these are apps that I don't need, while others are the iPhone versions of apps. There are something like 23 apps that I have no use for, but iTunes tries to install every time I connect. I've also tried clicking the 'Will Install' buttons. There's no way to delete these apps from the iPad without first installing them, as far as I can see, and there's no way to NOT install them, in iTunes.
    It''s not just annoying, it's causing problems with installation of larger files and movies. Now, every time I sync to the computer, I get a warning that I'm over capacity by 580 MB, and larger apps will not install! Clicking Revert and a bunch of other things doesn't work, either. And I can't just delete some of the apps, because I or my wife use them on our phones!

    You can't install the App Store version of Mavericks because your model needs a special version. If you ever need to reinstall it, boot into Recovery.

    Thanks very much for the advice. I trawled through the other answers on the site and it appears others had the same issue. I doubled the available space and the install went like clockwork... which is what one would norma;ly expect from Apple :-)
    Maybe Apple should have a ' definitely read me first' notice before a download takes place with CLEAR instructions to have more than the 6GB they indicate ofr the Mountain Lion download

  • Software purchased but will not install?

    I purchased Pages ... it shows under my purchases, but when it started to install I lost internet connectivity ... now it will not install.

    Ok..  that's what I needed to know.

    Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
    Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
    Select which apps you want to re download. Then right or control click where you see Installed  then click Install.
    Make sure and use the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.

  • After the update to Android 5.0.1 my Galaxy Gear S will not install apps, I get an error message that says "Installation Failed. Try Later. (WO:WO:-1002)

    After the update to Android 5.0.1 on my Galaxy Note 4, my Galaxy Gear S will not install apps, I get an error message that says "Installation Failed. Try Later. (WO:WO:-1002). I am glad it was a free app I was trying to install (I tried a couple of different ones to see if it was just a bad app and they all failed on the install. The Note 4 and the Gear S seem to be communicating okay via bluetooth (health stuff syncs, Gear S controls the music player on the note 4 Etc. )

    Everything that I had installed previously on the gear S still works.
    Everthing while in the gear manager seems to be working okay also. I can make changes in the Gear manager on the note 4 and they show up on the gear S. I have an app called watch styler , it let me create a new watch on the Note 4 and that showed up on the Gear S.
    The only thing that seems to be not working is installing new apps.
    When trying to get a new app it looks like it is working as normal , the dowload shows it is working but it errors out when it goes to install it.

  • How do I install purchased apps on ipad2?  It says I have purchased the apps but they are not installed.

    I have just purchased an ipad2 and purchased 2 apps.  This is my first ipad.  The ipad says I have purchased these apps but they are not installed. I don't know how to install them.  Also I can only see them if I go to either the app store or the game center and click on purchased.  I would like them to show up on screen that shows when I open the ipad but maybe that only happens when they are installed?

    Did you purchase them directly on the iPad or on your computer's iTunes ? If on your iPad in the App Store app then have you checked to see if they are on a different homescreen by swiping the homescreen to the left ? If they are on a different screen, and there are spaces on the first homescreen then you can move them :
    Touch and hold any icon for a couple of seconds until the icons jiggle .
    Arrange the icons by dragging them (don't drag too quickly). You can't leave gaps between icons on a page
    to move them to a different screen drag them (not too quickly) and then hold them so that they are overhanging the edge of the screen - after a couple of seconds or so the display should change to the next/previous screen (depending on which edge you are holding it) and you can then place the icon.
    Press the Home button to save your arrangement.
    If you downloaded them on your computer then you can either connect your iPad to your computer and sync them across, or go into the App Store app on the iPad and re-download them via the Purchased tab (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519)
    You can download a copy of the iPad manual from here http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad

  • Best Buy PC App will not install or repair.

    Hey, sorry for this, but upon buying a PC game, the Best Buy PC app will not install. At first it went through the install wizard and all, but it wasnt installed anywhere on my computer. Then: After following the advice of a bestbuy online representitive, I searched my c drive and deleted all information and tried to re-install. Now instead of the "Install Now" option, there is the "repair". Upon selectring repair,  it says "Source file not found .... verify that the file exists and you can access it". I've tried all night to get this up an runnning. I've contacted customer service 6 times and am either told they dont know what to do, or I am put on hold for 45 minutes. If anyone has any solution, it would be much appreciated. Thanks again for your time.
