App update notification red circles but nothing happens when trying "update"
4S with latest ios installed and there is a 2 in the circle on the APP STORE icon but entering the store when I tap update nothing happens! I can see there is a brief spinning circle along the top next to the wifi icon but no apps requiring update appear in the window. Tried rebooting, downloading a new app (works OK) but am unable to deal with this issue. Any ideas?
Solved! Get rid of all the icons along the bottom row - one at a time- after double-clicking the Home button. Then the spinning goes on much longer and hey presto! the two icons needing update appeared onscreen without having to press the update icon (bottom right) at all.

Macbook Pro purchased December 2014.....was fine until update iOS to Yosemite 2 days ago. Now, when turned on my image with my name comes up on the screen...no place to put your password.....at the bottom...restart, but used cursor to click on the restart and also my name, the image etc....nothing happens.
I shutdown to go into the Recovery OS....and got the screen about resetting the password....which doesn't need reset. The third choice seemed more appropriate regarding the keyboard...but could not click on any of them with the cursor.
Spent an hour with Apple support who ended up referring me to an Apple store that's a 100 mile round trip from me. Can't believe they can't help me...and can't believe this is happening to a brand new Mac.....guess Apple is no different than any other computer...install an update or upgrade...and immediately have problems.
Exasperated,
Joe......good thing my Dell is workingResetting User Password in Lion and Mountain Lion
Boot into your Recovery Partition by holding down the Command and R keys whilst booting.
When the Recovery screen appears, go to the Utilities menu and open Terminal.
In Terminal, type:
resetpassword
...a small app will open and allow you to choose the user for whom you want to change the password. If you are the admin, be certain that you choose your admin user. Type in your new password twice and give yourself a good hint. Click OK (or Done or whatever) and reboot, enjoying the use of your new, hopefully memorable, password.
Good luck,

I am trying to download facetime for an Imac from the app store but i get no response,I ahave also tried to download OS X 10.7. but i get a message that says to assign a link? any ideas?
You need to go to MAS and purchase Lion for $29.95; the download will take considerable time because it is a very large download. I'd suggest that when the download is finished and before you install it to copy the installer to a safe place (external hard drive or another folder) so you have a copy if you need to reinstall.

Ok, new to this forum. I pad 2 FaceTime, new user.

I am trying to finish downloading a free app.
I already agrred to the terms.
the next says Download Now but nothing happens when I press the OK buttonHi helpcmo,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your free app isn't downloading, first try restarting the iPhone:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Next, you may want to verify whether the issue is due to the iTunes Store connection:
Can't connect to the iTunes Store

If the behavior persists, try the remaining steps in our iPhone assistant:

How can I quit the photos app? It has been trying to create a library for hours but nothing happens. when I try to quit, it won't let me. Have just upgraded from iPhotos so don't want to lose any content.
Force-quit Photos as recommended by Arsenal1607.
Make backup of your iPhoto Library and run the iPhoto Library First Aid tools to repair the permissions on your library and rebuild the iPhoto Library.
To launch the First Aid Tools hold down the alt/option and the command key simultaneously while double clicking the iPhoto Library to launch the iPhoto Library First aid tools. You'd to hold down both keys firmly and long enough, until the First Aid panel will appear.
Try both the options "Repair Permissions" and "Rebuild library". Then try again to migrate the iPhoto Library to Photos by dragging it onto the Photos icon in the Dock.
Make sure, you have plenty of free storage. Don't try the migration, if you are running out of storage. -
After the OS X Lion installation, my USB modem doesn't work. I already updated the USB drivers, but nothing happened. Any suggestion?
You might want to do a search here on the forums re. usb modems - I've seen several threads and the opinion appears to be that faxing is no longer supported (especially since the "Fax" is now missing from the Print Preference Pane in System Preferences). I am faxing with an all-in-one printer which is connected to a landline, but I have to use the printer's control panel - can't use it from the iMac.

supposedly you can download or play songs using the icloud download button, a cloud icon with a downward arrow inside. But nothing happens when I click or double click on it.
You have to have music in your iCloud account to do that...when you open the Music app on your iPad, for example, you can access all music from iCloud that you have already placed in the iCloud or associated with iCloud. That is not for downloading music you have not already purchased or downloaded.

I am trying to view my pay stubs online but nothing happens when I click on the link. Does anyone know why, I never had a problem viewing them with my pc?
Nobody knows why because you have not provided sufficient information. Web site? Browser? How do you see your pay stubs online? Company web site? Unsecure?

You are in the iPad forum.
Open your Applications folder - find Safari in the applications, and double click on the icon in there. You may have a corrupt alias in the dock at the bottom.
