App store download buttons not highlighted

I'm shopping for a new browser for my iPhone 5 (currently using Safari).  Searching the App Store, several options came up but for several of the most popular ones (Dolphin, Chrome, etc), the download button [FREE] is not highlighted.  I've never seen this before.  What's going on?

I see that others had the same issue. And I'm happy to report that it does not happen here anymore. I did not have any Apple updates that I'm aware of, so I'm not sure what fixed it.
Those who also see it has been fixed, please click 'This solved my question' - thank you!

  • App Store Update Button Not Working

    On my iPad 3, recently I have had trouble accessing my updates.  When I open the App Store, the button at the bottom that says UPDATES indicates that I have 5 but when I touch the UPDATES button, nothing happens.  It does not move to the screen to indicate what the update are.  Each of the other buttons at the bottom: FEATURED, TOP CHARTS, GENIUS, AND PURCHASED. all perform properly.  UPDATES does not move off the home screen,  ideas?

    If you look there are quite literally hundreds of threads on this topic over the past few days. It's an issue with APple's servers.
    You can either wait it out, or if you go into the purchased tab you can download the updates manually or if you sync with a computer you can use iTunes on your computer to download the updates and then sync them onto your iPad.

  • ITunes app store update button not working

    I'm using iTunes 11 on a windows 7 pc, and the problem is that the for apps with update available, the app page in the store is shown to be "downloaded" and not clickable, whereas in iTunes 10 the button says "update". I have a quite large app library with 1000+ apps and the checking for updates button does not always give all the available updates. And it's not latency issues because apps that have updates months before still show up in the store page as downloaded. Anyone else have this issue/bug? I really rely on the update button on the iTunes store page a lot, so any help wound be appreciated. Thanks!

    Not sure about the layout on PC but try this.
    (1) Starting at home screen (click the house icon top, middle). (2) Top right, click on Library button. (3) Next screen, top left, click the icon that says Music.  It will pull up a menu where you can select Apps (also movies, tv, etc).
    At the bottom right you should see your update button for your apps and telling you the count of those.
    Good luck

  • App store Next button not working sometimes when searching for apps

    In the app store (using iPad with iOS 4.3.1), when i search for certain words and click on "See All", the next button does not always work. It is enabled (white) and there are more apps to be seen, but tapping either the one top or bottom simply does nothing. Other times, it works fine. I just started seeing this problem after applying the iOS 4.3.1 updates.

  • Mac app store: header buttons not clickable (Featured, Top Charts, Categories, Purchases, Updates)

    I am using the Mac app store on Mavericks. The header buttons (Featured, Top Charts, Categories, Purchases, Updates) are not clickable. They are greyed out except for the selected button, which is light-blue-grayed-out.
    I can go to the Store menu and choose Updates, Featured, Top Charts, Categories, Purchases without problem. It's just these buttons that are greyed out.
    I tried the following to solve this:
    delete the contents of $TMPDIR/C/*ppstore*
    reboot
    upgrade to Mavericks (I already had this issue on 10.8.5)
    Exit a lot of programs
    Check for kexts that shouldn't be there
    Create another user with admin rights and open App Store from that user
    Sign out and back into the App Store
    See this image.
    Any help would be appeciated.

  • App Store featured button not working

    Using iOS 6.x
    In App Store went into Featured > Hidden Apps
    It showed my apps not installed on iPad but I can't cancel and get back to where I was
    Any ideas?
    Cheers
    Craig

    Along that line of thinking though, this did work:
    After Quitting the App Store app, re-launch it and the "Featured" button appears. If you leave it then it changes to the iPad and iPhone options, which is what gets you stuck. So, before it changes, press Featured and it takes you back to original App Store Featured page.
    Cheers for the catalytic thought.

  • When I go to update my software using the app store download, it always asks for the previous user's ID, not mine.  Please help!

    When I go to update my software using the app store download, it always asks for the previous user's ID, not mine (my IT guy at school's-I am a faculty with admin priviledges).  I have signed in as me, have set the main preferences login user as me,and everywhere on the laptop I can use my apple ID except here.  It always shows me a greyed out ID of my IT.  How can I reset this to my ID? It doesn't give me an option to change the user ID, only a link to reset password.  I reset it, but it did not change the problem.  Can someone help me?

    It's not an ID problem, it's an ownership problem.
    When someone uses their personal Apple ID to buy and download content, the content is licensed to them and has their Apple ID engrained in it's DNA. It is an anti-piracy program. And when that personal Apple ID is used to setup a new Mac, it involves the Mac itself, the shipping OS and any pre-installed apps as well.
    It's not the correct way to handle Macs that belong to a business or an institution. And had it been handled correctly they would not now be in this predictument needing a drastic remedy.

  • The application called VirusScan that comes preloaded on the macbook will no longer open, claiming that it is corrupt and that I must reinstall it.  After looking in the app store it does not appear that said application is available for re-downloading.

    The application called VirusScan that comes preloaded on the macbook will no longer open, claiming that it is corrupt and that I must reinstall it.  After looking in the app store it does not appear that said application is available for re-downloading. Is there a special, non-app store place where I am to go for this?
    Also, I installed MacKeeper about two-three months ago and am questioning its performance. Looking for input as to whether or not this application helps or hinders my system.

    I'll back up Csound on the MacKeeper thing.  In fact, I actually wrote the following about it:
    http://www.reedcorner.net/news.php/?p=245
    Remove is ASAP.  Do not use the provided uninstalled, as there are widespread reports of pop-ups advertising MacKeeper on your system after incompletely removing it.  Try this:

    As for VirusScan, Barney is right on the money that it does not come preinstalled on any Mac shipped new from Apple.  However you have gotten it, your best bet is removing it.  See my Mac Malware Guide for more information that will help you understand and avoid Mac malware without relying on anti-virus software.

    You just resync your iPhone with iTunes on your laptop.
    If you are logged with the same Apple ID on both devices it should be available to download from your phone:
    Open App Store app > Updates > Purchased
