App Store doesn't update applications

My first iPhone 3G had no problems with the application store but ever since I exchanged it for another iphone now the application store shows all applications up to date even though if there are updates availables. Does anyone has the same problem and/or a solution?

On my iPhone just 2 minutes ago, it showed 2 updates availble (BoxOffice and myLite). On iTunes, it says no updates available. If I look out on the App store, there are actually two updates that I should be getting (BoxOffice 1.2 and myLite 1.1. On my iPhone, I ran the "App Store" again and now it shows no updates (even though I didn't retrive any on either the iPhone or iTunes).
On iTunes, went to the app store, clicked on the myLite selection, said "Get App" and it told me the update was free, downloaded it and synced, and voila - still 1.0 running on my iPhone, and still showing in my list of applications on iTunes.
This App Store is really a piece of junk.

  • App Store doesn't update

    Just recently I can't seem to update via the App Store app. The App Store icon shows updates are available but when I tap on the icon the update page opens but there is nothing but a blank page. I know updates are available as the number increases but again when I try to get the updates all I get is a blank page. All the other pages of the App Store work just fine. I'm on the latest iOS and an iPad 3. This issue only cropped up in the last few days. I have tried a hard reset but that did not solve the issue. Any ideas??
    Thanks

    There have been numerous reports on the forum today regarding this issue. It seems to be an issue at Apple, but no information has been posted on the status site.

  • Why is when I try to download from the App Store, it says "The application cannot be downloaded." I do have an ID account and my software has been updated.

       Hello there, I'm new to the Apple world, and I'm still learning my way around.
    Why is when I try to download from the App Store, it says "The application cannot be downloaded."
    It doesn't ask me for payment or anything. When I click on download, about 10 seconds later, that message pops up and nothing is downloaded onto my laptop. I can download other stuff onto my laptop for e.g. Microsoft Word and other various programs such as Google Chrome from the internet. However, I just cannot download from App Store. Any suggestions on how I can download apps?

    There is nothing wrong with my iTunes, is more of the App store that I am concerned about. And I've tried the "Authorise this computer" yes it does download when using iTunes, but no luck with App Store. And, yes I am logged onto iTunes when doing purchases.
    I find this really fustrating because the App store works fine on my ipod but once it comes to my macbook, it does not download. A few seconds later after I click on an app to download, the pop up message notifies me that the purchase cannot be downloaded.
    Anyways, thanks for your suggestion. 

  • TS3274 My App Store shows 3 updates but when I go to it the screen is blank. It will not give me the option to update all or one at a time, it doesn't show the apps at all.

    My App Store shows 3 updates but when I go to it the screen is blank. It will not give me the option to update all or one at a time, it doesn't show the apps at all.

    Many people are having this problem for the last couple of days. This is a problem that Apple has to fix. If you look around the forum, you will see many, many discusssions about this and they have been going on for a few days.
    According to Fly150 in another discussion, this is a workaround - for the time being.
    If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
    1. Go to App Store
    2. Select Purchased
    3. Select All
    4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
    5. Select update on the Apps
    This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store.

  • App store tries to update an app that doesn't need updating

    I have an iPhone 4 running iOS 5.0.1.  For the last week or so whenever I try to update apps using the app store's "Update All" button I get an error saying:
    Schwab Mobile and 1 other app cannot be purchased.
    After which point the Schwab app is grayed out with a "Loading" bar on it.  The weird thing is that Schwab is already up to date, the version I have installed is 2.1.1.1 which according to the app store is the latest.  Also the app is not in the list of apps that the app store wants to update.  The app will become unusable while in this state since it never actually loads.  The only way out of it is to do a hard reset of the iphone using the home and sleep buttons.  The next time I try to update any app on the phone the same thing happens again.  I should add that all other updates complete just fine, they load and install and come back for use.
    I've tried deleting and re-installing the Schwab app (which it can do just fine).  I've also tried syncing the phone with my mac, nothing seems to help.  It's mildly annoying to have to do a hard-reset after every time I update any app in order to get something I frequently use like Schwab back.
    Any ideas what's up and how to fix it?  I don't know how to make the app store realize that it doesn't need to be purchased or updated or whatever.
    Thanks for any help!

    Could you turn on automatic downloads on your phone and then trigger the download in iTunes?

  • How can I edit my apple ID in the app store the enable update some applications because it not my own that is showing

    How can I edit my apple ID in the app store the enable update some applications because it not my own that is showing

    It sounds like some apps were purchased using another Apple ID.
    ALL purchases are permanently associated with whatever Apple ID was used to originally obtain them.  Apps can not be updated without knowledge of that ID and, more importantly, its password.  Apple IDs can not be merged and purchases can not be transferred from one ID to another.

  • App store doesn't clear updated apps

    Using iPad Mini iOS7.  After accessing App Store and using Updates, download new apps, close app.  Reopen the app, recently updated apps still appear, now up to 12 apps.  How do you clear already updated apps in iOS7?
    I have tried quitting app, restarting, recently updated apps still show
    Bill

    I would just wait for it and see if it resolves itself. My iPad is constantly telling me that I have 3 updates, then when i click the update tab it says they're all up to date.
    I'm wondering if it's a bug with the new 'automatic updates' feature in iOS7.
    I don't think it's anything wrong on your end though.

  • After an upgrade of iOS on my iPhone 3GS the App Store doesn't find any applications. Why ??

    I just upgraded my old iPhone 3GS to iOS 6.1.6 hoping it would allow me to use at least some basic apps, but seems like the searching engine the App Store doesn't work and I can't even find any of them.
    Any ideas what could be the reason ?
    Please help !

  • I have the Mac OS 10.6.7 and my App Store doesn't open?

    I have the Mac OS 10.6.7 and my App Store doesn't open, it shows the frame, but never the content, the system thinks, thinks, until I Shut the application down. What should I do?

    Hi,
    Install the v10.6.7 combo update available here.
    It's ok to do this even if you are already running v10.6.7.
    Restart your Mac after the combo is installed.
    Then try the MAS.

  • Mac App Store Doesn't Recognize Apps

    I have a Macbook Pro which is almost three years old.  Applications like iLife and iWorks were installed on the computer long before there was the Mac Ap Store.  These apps, and others on my computer, do not show up as Instaled in the App Store so I can't update them unless I use the old Software Update or the vendor's site.  I don't want to purchase the apps again but is there any way to "register" these apps so the app store knows they are on my computer?
    Thanks,
    David

    I have iLife 11 that I purchased on disk that is installed, but the App store doesn't recognize any of the iLife apps as being installed.
    Everytime I run GarageBand it states there is a new version, but then Software Update says everything is up to date once it is run.
    I have GarageBand 6.0 (427.17) at the moment, and the newest right now is 6.0.5
    I haven't been able to update it.
    Any thoughts on this issue?

    Hi,
    Install the v10.6.6 combo update available here. It's ok to do this even though you are already running v10.6.6. The combo includes fixes that were not included in the original update.

    Restart your Mac and try the MAS again.
    You can download apps directly from the MAS once you have it running.
    Considering the TM backup took so long, make sure there's enough space on your Mac startup disk.
    Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. *Make sure you always have a minimum of 15% free disk space.*

  • I have an iPhone 5 and a PJ205 ipico Handheld LED Personal Projector for Apple iPhone 4. I bought the apple adapter but now need the app. Apple's App Store doesn't have it anymore, where can I get one?

    Hi Chris.
    It's asking you for my apple id password. not going to give that out, sorry.
    However I did try this projector on my mother in laws iphone 4 and on my old iphone 3. ipico software isn't needed. plug and play any video through standard movie player or camera saved video.
    I tried on my girls iphone 5 with the adapter. The ipico software and projector doesn't work on this phone.
    Hope this helped you. Better to buy a used iphone 3 or 4 and use it for video storage.
    I also found that the battery on these projectors are a joke (30-60mins max). I rigged a longer lasting battery on the outside and keep it plugged in while using. This doesn't charge the phone though so I replaced the battery in the old iphone 3 and now get at least a full length movie from it. Great in bed projected onto the ceiling.

  • My App Store doesn't work, it says there is no connection possible, but Safari and iTunes Store are working perfektly

    my app store doesn't work, it says there is no connetion possible but safari and the itunes store ars working perfectly, so whats wrong ???

    Hi..
    Installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo reinstalls the App Store for you. It's ok to do this even though you are already running v10.6.8
    Restart your Mac after the combo is installed. Then try the App Store.
    If that didn't help, if you have anti virus software installed, you need to disable that. And third party apps such as Little Snitch can prevent access to the App Store as well.

  • App Store shows Twitter update again and again

    Hello boys and girls.
    My Mac App Store shows the update 2.0.1 for Twitter again and again. I downloaded it 10 times again and it didn´t go away. Twitter is on 2.0.1 and the MAS shows the update again.On my iMac there wasn´t a problem with this update.
    Sorry for my bad english skills. I´m a german guy. I hope you understand my problem.
    Regards
    m1LLo

    Without the Twitter app installed the Mac App Store continues to display Twitter as being available to receive an update — this to me sounds like Cached information that is corrupt.
    Are you certain that you removed the following files:
    Remove all files in the Caches folder from the following 2 locations:
    Macintosh HD/Library/Caches
    System/Library/Caches
    You might even want to remove Caches from your home folder but I am certain it's not there because the App Store is a system wide applications and it install app into the Applications folder which is also system wide. As an addendum to this, I am also convinced that if you log into another user account on your mac you will continue to see this update offered.
    Also remove
    ~/Library/Caches
    You must restart your mac immediately afterward. There is no point attempting to empty the trash because these cache files are likely active.
    Please confirm
