App updates are stuck on installing, won't update

I have 10 apps to update. They are all stuck on installing. Have rebooted,doesn't do anything. I can't use the apps either. any suggestions?

Make sure you are getting a good internet connection.
Double-tap the Home button (bottom center of the iPhone), to get the current open Apps. Press and hold on one till they start "shivering" and you get the red "-" sign on them.
Such the "-" on the ones you are having troubles with to close them. And press the Home button again to exit the "shiver mode".
Then reset your iPhone (Press and hold the Home and Sleep (Shut Down) buttons at the same tim, till you get the Apple logo). This will not cause any data loss.
When it has finished restarting, open the Apps you were having troubles with. The iPhone should recognize an incompleted upgrade and restart the download/upgrade.
Good luck.

    I had uninstalled iMovie 10 after it was updated and decided to reinstall it but it won't update, iMovie 10 update is stuck at installed in my App Store account. How do I get it the update to revert to uninstalled so I can re-update iMovie 10 to 10.0.1? iMovie 9.0.9 (iLife 11) is still installed and working.

    What in particular didn't you like about Firefox 6?
    You can undo a lot of changes, either via changing settings or prefs on the <b>about:config</b> page or via extensions.
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/common-questions-after-updating-firefox
    Do a clean reinstall of the version that you want to use.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    *Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    *Firefox 6.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version.
    * Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data in the profile folder.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • Hi tried to update several apps at once no they are stuck on installing.i can't delete them or open them.any suggestions?

    Hi tried to update several apps at once and now they are stuck on installing.I can't open or delete them. Any suggestions ?

    Here are a number of things that have worked in the past that you can try. If you already tried something in here, just ignore it.
    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.
    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.
    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.
    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.
    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.
    If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.

    Hello Sriggers,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you are attempting to update some applications on your iPhone but the payment method was declined. In this situation, I would recommend reading over the information in the attached article to help resolve the situation.

    my updates are stuck on pause - how do I fix this problem?

    Hi, cagr1805.
    The following articles might help you get your updates resumed (they may need to be cancelled, then restarted rather than resumed):
    Mac App Store: Buy, download, and install apps
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11493
    Pause, resume, or cancel an app download
    To pause or resume a download in App Store, in the toolbar, click Purchases, find the app in the list, and then click Pause or Resume.During the download, the amount downloaded and estimated download time remaining are shown.While installing, the estimated time remaining is shown.
    To cancel a download in App Store, in the toolbar, click Purchases, find the app in the list, hold down the Option key, and then click Cancel.
    To pause or resume a download in Launchpad, click the app icon.
    To cancel a download in Launchpad, hold down the app icon until all the icons start to jiggle, and then click the app’s delete button (x).
    To cancel a download in the Finder, click the app's delete button (x).
    If a download is interrupted because you lose your Internet connection or quit App Store, App Store starts the download again when the Internet connection is restored or the next time you open App Store.
    To start downloading any apps you purchased but haven’t successfully downloaded, choose Store > “Check for Unfinished Downloads.”
    If that doesn't help, you might take a look at Mac App Store: How to resume interrupted downloads.

  • My applications on my iphone 4s are stuck on 'installing'

    everything on my phone is up to date, but certain apps are stuck on 'installing'.  I have tried a hard restart, signing in/out of itunes, and trying to pause the app to start again and NOTHING IS WORKING.
    Can anyone help?

        Let's get your camera switched back, GardenLova. Did you notice this started recently after downloading a new application that uses your camera? Have you powered your phone off completely? Please try resetting your Network Settings. http://vz.to/1n4s3dq

  • HT1725 My app downloads are stuck waiting. There is no 'downloads' tab in iTunes. Very aggravating

    My app downloads are stuck waiting. There is no 'downloads' tab in iTunes. Very aggravating. I sign into iTunes. No download tab. I sign not App Store. No download tab. 2 apps stuck on 'waiting'. Have reset iPad2 - no progress.

    Also, I'm unable  to delete the 2 apps. So they just sit there taking up space.
    I'd like to at least be able to start the downloads or delete the apps. I can't do either.

    Hello,
    My Adobe CS5 keeps letting me know updates are ready to install, attempts to install, then always tells me.." error in the downloading..."Please!...tell me what to do to get these updates?...I've been trying(Adobe has been trying) for 3 months to get this done.  What if I uninstall everything and try to reinstall again? I uninstalled the program from the old computer when I got a new computer. Had no problems with that.I've run out of places to look for help. Just want to keep my stuff current.

  • HT1365 How can I get my iPhone 4 to update my updates from my app store of it keeps telling me error 3150 or it tell me to refresh the page after updates and the updates are still there asking me to update them again

    How can I get my iPhone 4 to update my updates from my app store of it keeps telling me error 3150 or it tell me to refresh the page after updates and the updates are still there asking me to update them again?

    Make sure iTunes on the computer is logged into the account on the phone.
    Plug the iPhone in.
    In the popup window warning about wiping your phone, hit cancel.
    In the left pane of iTunes, the phone icon should be there.
    Right click on it, select transfer purchases.
    Note: this will only transfer music bought from iTunes. Not mp3's from amazon or ripped from CD's.

  • HT5137 i have apps that are stuck at waiting?

    Since downloading ios 7, and syncing using icloud, i have multiple apps that are stuck in waiting mode.
    Any ideas?

    If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.

    Another thing to try - Turn the iPad Off & then back ON.
    If that doesn't work:
    •  Log out of your iTunes store account.  Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
    • Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
    • After restart, the Waiting should be gone.

    I have Automatic Updates turned off,  but everytime I launch I now get an annoying "Updates are ready to install" pop-up, I use skype 6.14 and have no interest in any of the crap MS are now forcing on me.
    Does anyone know how I can get rid of this pop-up, or even where it came from, it never used to do this ?

  • Why is Firefox intruding and sending updates when auto updates are turned off? This constant update wreaks havoc with add-ons

    Why is Firefox intruding and sending updates when auto updates are turned off? This constant updating wreaks havoc with add-ons
    Why is Firefox violating my computer?

    I left "automatic updates" for Firefox UNCHECKED and left download when updates are found UNCHECKED. " Ask me wha I want to do" is CHECKED.
    In English, that means don't automatically update and if updates are found ASK.
    It does NOT mean ignore all the instructions and download!

  • App Updates are Stuck Waiting

    All of my app updates are in waiting mode with no progress in days.  I touch one (Keynote) and the phone shows "Waiting..." and then the message comes up "Unable to Download Application."  "Keynote" could not be downloaded at this time.
    1) I am on WiFi, browsing works fine, have confirmed connected.
    2) Does the same thing on all apps.
    3) I hit update all over a week ago, and every app is not not accessible because it thinks it is being updated, even though stuck
    4) Power Off/On many times
    5) Hard Reset (lock button + home button until Apple logo)
    I had this problem on my iPad 2 recently as well.  I reset:
    1) Reset All Settings -- did not fix
    2) Erase All Content and Settings -- this did fix it.
    The problem is that "Erase All Content and Settings" forces me to re-download all my apps (200 or so), and none of my folders are preserved.  I have to then spend hours re-building all my folders, or have my apps randomly on 7 or 8 screens.  I would really prefer a solution where I do not have to go to this length to get it fixed.
    Any better ideas?

    Any other ideas?
    If I backup my phone, then "Erase All Content and Settings," will a retored backup put all of my apps back into their folders?
