App store is frozen

When I click on the App Store app in iPhone 4s the version is 5.1.1 thee AppStore is frozen the featured option and not responding for any clicks what will I do ???

Saw this on another post.
Applecare Senior Advisor Txx Bxxx (I have his contact info in an email he just sent) just confirmed with me that the problem people are having with the App Store not loading is an apple issue with there servers, ITS NOT YOUR IPAD so don't go restoring it! It's not happening to everyone however but they are looking into it, its really hit or miss.
In the meantime ...........

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
This works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

Hi ckreske,
I would try forcing the app to quit as described in this article:
iOS: Force an app to close

You can also try restarting your phone:

App store has frozen on my iPhone 4

App store has frozen on my iPhone 4 - I can open it but can't get further - any advice appreciated!

I have the same or similar problem. Resetting the iPh 4 doesn't work.
App Store shows 94 apps to update via the red badge (I've been traveling away from that iPhone in another international carrier territory and use another iPhone, 4S this time).
When I touch the App Store icon, it launches and stays "loading" forever...
Other suggestions?

App store updates frozen

My App store is frozen on 46 updates and won't load. This occured after I did a revert to factory status and re-installed apps. How do I unfreeze the option?

Her are a bunch of things that you can try. I have posted this quite a few times and all of these suggestions have worked at one time or another.
From what you describe, start with #2 - the reboot.
1. Tap the "waiting" icon and see if you can pause it. If it does pause, then tap it again and see if it will resume. If that works, repeat the same steps for each "waiting" icon.
2. Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
3. 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.
4. If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>iTunes & App 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>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
5. 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. Apps may also be able to be deleted in Settings>General>Usage>Storage if you cannot get the X to pop up on the icon.
6. You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered.

App Store totally frozen on Macbook Pro

Hi
When I started on my new macbook for the first time, I was simply checking to ensure everything was in order.
Until I wanted to download some apps from the App Store, but it appeared to become frozen when I tried to update. Any ideas to fix this issue?
Hope to get some replies from you.
Cheers,
SFR

I already have tried that too.
Whenever I attempt to log out, restart or even shut down, App Store cancel that request and simply ask me to quit App Store that I cannot even try to quit App Store.
Last thing I am thinking is to let the battery carry on till it shut down itself.
Cheers,
SFR

How do I fix App Store screen frozen?

I bought vanity fair magazine but after completing purchase and returning to the App Store it is frozen and will not close window. I have turned off iPad but it did not help. I have an iPad 3 with updated OS. Current. How can I unfreeze the App Store since it's part of the system and can't be deleted and reloaded?

Try a reset: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go.

HT204266 tried to download app from app store & now frozen-how do I get out?

Tried to download a free app (1st time w/new iphone) & now frozen. Synced phone, still stuck. Genius icon appears highlighted, but nothing happens when I touch it - help get me out of app store! Thanks for any help.

First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

Application from the App Store is frozen

I've tried to download an app and it froze, so I tried to cancel it and couldn't. It's still in 'purchases' in the App Store and listed under 'other purchases'.
The button next to it is blank (no letters).
Also, the Launchpad icon looks like it's downloading and the app in it is greyed out.
So, help, please?

I restarted multiple times and it didn't work. I've even tried reinstalling the App Store and completely failed, ended up totally removing the AS without the ability to install again. So, I've turned it into an even bigger problem.
If anyone knows a workaround, please reply.
