App Store app nearly unusable on iPad 3 and iPhone 4 with iOS 6

Thankfully I do not have any WiFi troubles with iOS 6 but I am facing another problem. iOS 6 offers that revamped App Store app which looks nice to me on my iPad 3 and iPhone 4, both using iOS 6. But it is nearly impossible to use that App Store app. I am quite often moving. apps onto and. off my devices and if possible I am doing it without using the USB connection to my mac, I like to use WiFi.
I have to admit that I am owning more than 3.000 different apps by now. It always took some time to het those apps listed in iTunes on my Mac, in iOS 5 it also was no high speed listing. but at least it worked. Now after changing to iOS 6 the simple listing takes much more time. When changing the lsting type from "actual" to "by name" it even takes more time (and why is it still not possible to set the prefered view type within some preferences option?). When the view type finally has changed scrolling, detail look onto selected applications and the overall handling of this lsting is awfully slow.
But the really annoying thing is that I can not scroll further than letter "D" or "E" - the App Store app constantly crashes (but remains active in the taskbar). You can imagine that this behaviour takes even more time on a iPhone 4.....!
Does anybody in here face the same troubles?

P.S. I solved the problem now and I'm only left with "installing..." status. Here's how got rid of that "waiting..." status:
1) Open iTunes with your device connected to the laptop or pc.
2) On the left sidebar, press "Apps".
3) Then on the lower right, you'll see like in my case, "30 (this varies on the number of apps available for updates) Updates Available".
4) Click on the desired app you want to update.
5) Lastly, after updating, press the "sync" button.
It worked, though my apps are currently stuck on "installing..." status. I don't know if this'll work in your case, but there's no harm in trying the procedure, right?

  • My ipad and iphone with ios 6 fight me to log on to my wireless hotspot

    I am deployed and have a wireless hot spot for my internet. Both my ipad and iphone fight me everytime i try to log into it. They will log on to it.. Stay on for varying times.. Then log off and i get a page not found message. My hotspot requires me to log it in to the internet everytime i turn it on, so i have to log on to it by IP address.. Put in my password, and then connect it to the internet. Sometimes if i am fast enough, i can toggle between the settings and safari and get itto work.. But it goes like this..
    - connect to wifii
    - go to safari and go to login page
    - pop up screen with page not found -- wifi symbol disappears
    - back to wifi-- click on hot spot
    - back to safari wait for wifi symbol -- if it shows up, try to load login page
    - pop up screen with page not found -- wifi symbol disappears
    - Back to wifi settings.. Click on hotspot
    - back to safari - if login page loaded.. Enter password and click login..
    - pop up screen with page not found -- wifi symbol disappears
    - back to wifi settings.. Click on hotspot
    - back to safari - hope connection page is loaded -- if it is-- hit connect
    - pop up screen with page not found -- wifi symbol disappears
    - back to wifi settings.. Click on hotspot
    - back to safari.. Refresh connection page-- if the internet connection has been made.. It will stay on the wifi.. If not.. I have to repeat steps.. Some multiple times
    I have tried toggling all wifi related items.. Turned off siri.. Reset network settings twice.. Stood on my head and juggled a chicken, a pony, and a fiat,and every other crack pot notion out there to fix this, nothing has worked. Still stuck with this same situation. Non apple devices have no trouble loggomg on to my hotspot and getting through the login process... Sooooo.. *** do i do??

    This is good support apple community.. Im the only person on the planet with this problem i guess.. Thanks

  • Ipad and iphone with IOS 7 but older Mac - How?

    I have an IMac with 10.5.8 system and iTunes 10.6.3. I recently got an iphone 5 and ipad 3 with IOS 7. Now I cannot sync them with my itunes library. It refuses to recognise them and tells me to upgrade to iTunes 11.1. but I cannot and when i try to update my Imac OS it will not let me either saying I all software is upto date. What do I do to get my stuff onto my ipad - I have a library of personal / family vids I converted to play and sync from my itunes account but now cannot get them onto my ipad / iphone? Wireless transfer works fine for stuff and apps purchased from iTunes but I have a couple of itunes accounts, one from years back but has a lot of stuff on it (UK one) and a newer one I had to create on moving to Japan permamently as I now have no registered address in the UK. How do I add an additional Apple ID to my iphone / ipad? Can this even be done anymore?
    Beginning to wish I had never upgraded to ios 7 as all worked fine before. Can I undo this upgrade?
    Thanks for any help or suggestions!

    1. A Mac needs to be running Mac OS X 10.6.8 or newer to sync devices running iOS 7; Mac OS X 10.6 is available from the online Apple Store and requires an Intel Mac with at least 1GB of RAM.
    2. There is no way back.

  • HT203167 My App Store icon is missing from ipad and won't re-install?

    My App Store icon is missing from ipad and won't re-install? You can't delete it so where is it?

    If you can't find it on any of your homescreens or app folders, and you can't find it via the spotlight search screen (swipe your first home screen to the right), then is it hidden by Settings > General > Restrictions > Installing Apps being set 'off' ?
    If not then have you tried a reset to see if you can find it after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    hiii . i have encountere a problem . my notes app are not syncing in my ipad and iphone . plz help

    Hi marcmartineau,
    I'm not sure why this is happening, but I think I'm seeing the same thing. Many times when I get an email on the iPad or iPhone with a picture attached, I don't see the picture but instead just a placeholder icon.
    I have found a work around though to at least see the picture. If I forward it and include the attachment, I see the picture in the outgoing email. I can even save the image from the sending email if I really don't want to send it. If i do send it to myself, chances are I will see the picture in the email when I receive it even though it's just a resend of the original.
    weird.

  • My wife has a new Ipad and Iphone with icloud. We also have a Imac that has not been upgraded yet that is somehow syncing with her ipad and screwing up the apps. Is there anyway to prevent this. Maybe it is thru mobilme?

    I think iCloud isn't coming until this fall and not until iOS 5 is publicly available. Right now there is confusion because all this stuff is still in beta and things are under NDA and may still change.
    I'd just set the 3GS up the same as currently. When iOS 5 is available in the fall (and I don't think Apple has specified beyond "fall"), before you update, there should be any number of guides to setting things up and how it will all work. http://macworld.com is a good place to look for such information.

  • HT4314 I have a iPad and iPhone with the same Apple ID, but on Game Center I have used the same id for both devices and they are two different profiles and I was wondering how to have one of the accounts on both devices.

    Hi Jamesdwills,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    If you are using the same Apple ID on both devices, the Game Center profile should be the same.
    Check out this information from the iPad User Guide.  Try signing out of the Game Center on both devices and then sign back in with the correct Apple ID:

    Game Center settings
    Go to Settings > Game Center, where you can:
    Sign out (tap your Apple ID)
    Allow invites
    Let nearby players find you
    Edit your Game Center profile (tap your nickname)
    Get friend recommendations from Contacts or Facebook
    Specify which notifications you want for Game Center. Go to Settings > Notifications > Game Center. If Game Center doesn’t appear, turn on Notifications.
    Change restrictions for Game Center. Go to Settings > General > Restrictions.

  • I am synching my ipad and iphone with icloud. Events put in calendar go to the iphone, but if i enter an event on the iphone, it does not go to the ipad. What do i do to get this to work both ways?

    I am synching my ipad and iphone with icloud. Events put in calendar on ipad  go to the iphone calendar,, but if i enter an event on the iphone calendar, it does not go to the ipad. What do i do to get this to work both ways?

    OK Vicky, good clues...
    See if this helps...
    Open Keychain Access in Utilities, use Keychain First Aid under the Keychain Menu item, then either check the Password under that item, change it, or delete it and start over. See if there are duplicates, should be one for Incoming & one for Outgoing.
    Resetting your keychain in Mac OS X...
    If Keychain First Aid finds an issue that it cannot repair, or if you do not know your keychain password, you may need to reset your keychain.

  • Pictures in the albums I want but now how do I re sync my iPad and iPhone with them?

    ok I got my pictures in the albums I want but now how do I re sync my iPad and iPhone with them?

    Are you using iCloud Photo Library? Then syncing is automatic and your mobile devices should be showing the same albums automatically.
    See:  iCloud Photo Library beta FAQ
    If you are not sing iCloud Photo Library, use iTunes to sync selected albums to your mobile devices.
    For more information and instructions for transferring photos using iTunes, open iTunes, then choose Help > iTunes Help, or see:  iOS: Syncing photos using iTunes

  • I can't find musics or movies on Itunes store. There are just iPad and iPhone apps. No musics or movies. Just iPad and iPhone options

    When I start the itunes store, there are two options on the screen: iPhone and iPad (iPad came set as default). So, when I search musics or movies, I can't find nothing, just some iPad and iPhone apps.
    What can I do to find and buy musics and movies?
    Sorry if this is a stupid question, I am new in the mac world.
    Thanks for the attention.

    Thanks so much! My grandaughters played games on the iPad over Xmas and one of their moms said shed restricted their access! Guess they forgot to enable again. Thank you again! Karla

  • VoiceOver issue with iBooks on iPad and iPhone in iOS 4.2.1

    I use the VoiceOver feature of my iPad and iPhone. After I upgraded to iOS 4.2.1 I was unable to buy any books from the iBooks store. I had to disable VoiceOver to make my purchases (not an easy feat when you need VoiceOver!)
    I particular, I've found two bugs.
    1. When I have VoiceOver enabled while using iBooks, I can not select the price button to buy a book.
    2. While I'm in my Account page by first selecting "Apple ID: myappleid" at the bottom of an iBooks page and then selecting [View Apple ID] from the pop-up, I'm unable to modify any of the fileds. VoiceOver tells me I can select the fields, but when I try to, the control (numeric keypad, picker item, etc.) is not displayed and I have no way of modifying the field. H have to disable VoiceOver and navigate back to make my changes.
    How do I report this to Apple?

    The best place to let Apple know your views is via the channel they have set up for that.

  • When trying to backup and sync my ipad and iphone with itunes the device does not appear int he upper right hand corner anymore

    when trying to backup and sync my ipad and iphone to itunes it does not appear in the upper right hand corner under devices for me to click on

    In that same window - the one where you see your backups - click on the box at the bottom that say -Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads form syncing automatically. Then click OK and quit iTunes.
    Connect your iPad to the computer and launch iTunes. Right click on the iPad name on the left side under the devices heading and select - Restore from backup. A window will pop up from which you can select any of the backups that you have for the iPad. Select the backup that you want to restore from and then go agreed and restore the iPad. Sync with iTunes when you are done.
    Remember that when you restore from a backup - you restore everything in that backup to the iPad. You cannot selectively restore content. It is all or none.

  • Why my MDM Server can only communicate with ipads and iphones with logging Junos sslvpn.

    Why my MDM Server can only communicate with ipads and iphones when either of the iPhone or iPad Junos sslvpn?  Any ideas
    Our iPad and iPhones users have to log in to Junos SSLVPN to be able to communicate with our MDM Server (via wi-fi).  Any ideas where users don't have to log in to Junos SSLVPN?

    This bothers me so much. It is absolutely ridiculous. I use my Apple ID as well as a family member's Apple ID to download music.
    Every once in a while I will purchase a song and it won't download correctly or will give me an error that my computer is not authorized, a solution I usually fix by deleting and redownloading the song from the cloud. This doesn't work, however, when it happens to both accounts within 90 days.
    It is incredibly frustrating to me that I have paid for a song, it downloaded incorrectly, and I must wait 90 days to try downloading it again because of these assinine policies.
