App Updates No Longer there

iPod Touch 3rd gen v 5.1.1
iTunes for Windows v 10.7.0.21
Before yesterday (Dec 25/12) evening, I had 5 'updates' on my iPod Touch. I know what they were for, just hadn't done anything about 4 of them yet. 1 update I was NOT going to update as this version would no longer sync with my desktop PC.
On my PC, in iTunes, I also had these identical 5 updates waiting. BTW, I do not update via the iTouch, but update via iTunes on my PC, then sync the iTouch, via usb cable, to my iTunes on the PC.
Then, yesterday evening, suddenly my Touch was saying ALL my apps were 'up to date'. When I check the versions that are running on the Touch, they are NOT updated to the 'current' versions. iTunes on my PC also says: "There are no updates available for any of the apps in your iTunes library." . When I check the actual app, the current app in iTunes is newer than the version on my Touch or in my iTunes Library.
iTunes having some sort of problem?

Same here, sort of though my ipod is a 4th gen running iOS 6.0.1
Been over a week, I have over 209, says all apps are up to date!...I find hard to believe????
Here is a guess, I hope it's this I cut and pasted from macrumors online article, though I am only a user, not any devoloper...
Other folks COULD THIS BE WHY?
Apple Reminds Developers of App Store Freeze During Holidays
Thursday December 20, 2012 12:24 pm PST by Arnold Kim
Apple has sent reminders to App Store developers that the annual shutdown of iTunes Connect is scheduled to take place from Friday, December 21, 2012 to Friday, December 28th, 2012.
iTunes Connect is the portal for developers to submit app updates and changes. As a result, no new apps, app updates or price changes will be reflected in the App Store during that time.
We strongly recommend that you do not schedule any pricing changes in iTunes Connect that would take effect between Friday, December 21, 2012 and Friday, December 28, 2012. Pricing changes scheduled to take effect during this date range will not be reflected on the App Store and your app or In-App Purchase will become unavailable for purchase until after the shutdown.  We also recommend that you do not schedule any apps to go live during the shutdown. Releases scheduled with a start date between Friday, December 21, 2012 and Friday, December 28, 2012 will not go live on the App Store until after the shutdown.
As a result of the shutdown deadline, a large number of App developers have beencutting prices today as they compete for top ranking on the App Store Top Charts during the lucrative Christmas sales period.

  • Why do app updates no longer show up for me in iTunes?

    Please don't stop reading, because I think my issue is different from similar ones I've found posts about.
    For the past week or so, I've been unable to update apps through iTunes. When I click "Check for Updates," it shows "Accessing iTunes Store" at the top of the screen, but after it finishes I never get a dialog box -- neither the dialog box saying there are new updates nor the one saying there are not. Also, I don't get the notification in the left hand column next to "Applications" that normally shows how many app updates are available. The latter point is what seems to distinguish my problem from the other posts I've seen, in which push notification seems to work but updating fails. I can't even see any updates in the first place -- and this occurs even when I can see from using the App Store on my iPhone that I have multiple updates available. And I have a lot of apps.
    I should add that this is especially mysterious because it is the only problem I am having with iTunes. I can still download NEW apps from the iTunes App Store, sync my iPhone, download podcasts, etc. I can also update Apps on my iPhone itself. My internet service is working fine. This problem began with the previous version of iTunes and has continued in iTunes 8.1.
    One final confession. A few weeks ago, I went through my Apps folder and deleted the non-current versions of all of my apps, hoping to save space on my old computer's hard drive. I don't think this is the cause of the problem, because app updating continued to work for a few weeks after that. But I mention it in the interest of full disclosure. But in addition to my main question, I'd be interested in knowing if this is a bad idea for future reference.
    I am running iTunes 8.1.0.51 on Windows XP Home edition (SP 3), and I have a first-generation 4GB iPhone.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks very much!

    ell, exactly same problem here: could not have been described better. It all started when I noticed that I could no longer update iPhone apps. "Applications" folder under Library showed such updates awaiting downloading: I could not get any further.
    AND SUDDENLY, for no reason, the "Application" in iTunes "Library" disappears! No folder visible, no apps listing, no updates mentioned. Wow!
    i had contacted Apple's iTunesStoreSupport in regard to the initial incident, and was kindly informed that:
    +"Dear Roger,+
    +Thank you for contacting iTunes Store Customer Support for assistance. I understand that you are receiving intermittent connection errors using iTunes 8.1.+
    +Apple is currently working toward a resolution for the issue you have reported. You will receive an email after the matter has been investigated and further information is available.+
    +Thank you very much for your patience, and I am sorry for any delay in enjoyment of your iTunes experience. Finding a solution for you is important to me.+
    +Remember, we wish your iTunes experience to be truly enjoyable. Take care, and thank you for being a valued iTunes Store customer. Your business is most appreciated.+
    +Best regards"+
    I thus figured that in some way "all was in control"... Until the Applications forum disappeared. Apps gone??? Are they stored somewhere on my Mac??
    I have just emailed an update incident report to iTunesStoreSupport with screen prints to show abrupt, undesired change.

    After the new ios7 update, is there a way to clear all the app updates in the App store, before they used to disappear after I had downloaded the  app update, now they are piling up and it's getting confusing as to what app has an update and what hasn't!!

    Seems to be an Apple problem. Did yo turn on Automatic App updates?

  • I updated my iPad to iOS6 and the YouTube app is no longer there,  no restrictions have been set and I have checked them to make sure they haven't been. I can't get it back and have no idea where to find it or get it back on my iPad, anyone have an answer

    Just like the topic states........updated iPad, and lost the YouTube app, and no it's not because of restrictions cause I've checked......it's gone and I can't get it back, I've even hooked up to my computer and iTunes to see if I could get it back there also but no luck there either.  Any help would be appreciated

    youtube is no longer a built in app on ios6. Apple contract with google expired so youtube and google maps were removed. try the app store or youtube mobile website

  • I recently replaced my iPhone 5s and had restored it but most of my apps are no longer there in the restore , also it comes up with the other iPhones icloud when updating the apps ?? please help

    i would like to know how to get all apps back , also to get the other icloud account off my iphone ?

    If you restored the backup from iCloud, it will automatically re-download all your apps for you on its own.
    If you restored the backup from iTunes, you have to manually download all the apps back from the AppStore.
    Never heard of such issue with iCloud before but you can sign out of all iCloud account starting with,
    Settings>iCloud
    Settings>Messages>iMessage
    Settings>Facetime
    Settings>iTunes & AppStore
    Settings>Game Center
    Turn off home sharing on your phone if its on. Then sign in back to each one of them with your apple account.

  • I have upgraded to OS7.1, all my recently purchased apps are no longer there. Why is this ?

    I recently bought a bunch of music apps. I jet updated to OS 7.12. They are available to re download from the app store, but not on the main iPad desktop as before.
    Is there a way to stop this happening again?
    Thanks

    For some reason, it would appear that the device did a restore as part of the upgrade, and the backup it restored from was not up to date. How much free space did you have when you upgraded?
    If upgrading Over The Air, make sure you have backed up the device explicitly onto the iCloud before commencing.
    Or better, do all future upgrades using iTunes on a computer, and setting the backup to be stored locally. iTunes will always do a backup before munging with an iGadget's guts, and storing it locally speeds up the process immensely, both then doing the back up as well as when restoring (if needed).

  • How do you get rid of App Store app update notice when there are no apps to be updated?

  • I got an iPhoto app update error message "There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (4)"

    Does anyone know what's up here?
    Thanks.

    If you're been waiting for a while and it still won't connect might try this:
    1 - enable the Debug menu in App Store:
    open the Terminal application.
    copy the command below and paste into the Terminal window:
    defaults write com.apple.appstore ShowDebugMenu -bool true
    followed by Enter.
    launch App Store, login.
    2 - select the Debug ➙ Reset Application option:
    3 - try again.

    The ipad screen is white. Holding buttons didn't work so I restored it on iTunes. When I press home and on switch, the screen is white,  goes black then back to white with no logo at all. Can't get past the white screen. This happened after running app updates. Is there any fix besides going to Apple store? In iTunes on computer can see what is on there. 16GB OS 7.1.1

    FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
    1. Turn off iPad
    2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)

    ON COMPUTER
    6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
    7. Select "Restore iPad"...
    Note:
    1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup

  • IOS app update?

    Is an update to the iOS app update forthcoming? There hasn't been an update since July 31. It would be great to see some new features, and there are problems on iOS 8. The All/Photos/Videos selector in the library view doesn't work. I want to recommend Revel to friends, but I'm worried that it is not being supported.

    Well I just got off of a support chat with an Adobe Creative Cloud representative. Here is the Answer:
    McNeil: at 19:04:35 
    Chad, we have no other solution, you'll be able to move to apple and they will help you with more details on how to move your photos. 
    McNeil: at 19:04:53 
    I can understand your situation and it's the best to move to Apple 
    you: at 19:05:00  
    So this basically says that you are canceling Revel. 
    you: at 19:05:03  
    I see 
    you: at 19:05:10  
    I appreciate your honesty. 
    McNeil: at 19:06:02 
    Yes, that's correct. 
    McNeil: at 19:06:10 
    Is there anything else I can help you with ? 

  • What does app.update.timerMinimumDelay do?

    What are the two events separated by app.update.timerMinimumDelay?

    There are no rollbacks to previous versions once you update.
    If you made a backup prior to the update, then try restoring the backup.

  • Since i updated my iphone to ios7, i can no longer download applications and also cannot update my apps. what happened? there is an alert popping and it tells that i should switch to Philippine store.

    since i updated my iphone to ios7, i can no longer download applications and also cannot update my apps. what happened? there is an alert popping and it tells that i should switch to Philippine store.

    Hi, sallymaesmag. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you are in the Philippines, check to see if the country is changed in the iTunes Store settings on the iOS device.  These steps will show you how to change the preference.
    Change your iTunes Store country
    Sign in to the account for the iTunes Store region you'd like to use. TapSettings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID: > View Apple ID > Country/Region.
    Follow the onscreen process to change your region, agree to the terms and conditions for the region if necessary, and then change your billing information.

  • How do i uninstall a purchased app (that no longer appears in the purchased app list in the store) so that i can repurchase and have the app appear as "purchased" so that i can get updates as the software is updated periodically?

    I am looking for some help with the app store.  I recently purchased an app (aperture) in the app store and subsequently apple refunded the purchase price.  However, the downside of this is that aperture no longer appears as a "purchased" app within my app store account.  Accordingly, i don't believe i will get updates as the software is updated periodically.  Apple has instructed me to delete all my aperture files, reboot and then revisit the app store to re-download and it should let me pay for the app and redownload just as if i had never had the app before.  However, when i go to purchase aperture, i get a warning that it has already been purchased and that i can re-download for free.  That sounds great but again it won't appear in the "purchased" list in the app store b/c of the original refund from apple.  I never thought i would have this much trouble trying to pay someone for a product! 
    Questions:
    Is the app store looking to my hard drive for traces of aperture to determine whether it has been purchased or is it looking at some kind of purchase history within the app store?
    Is there anyway to wipe my hard drive clean of aperture files or wipe clean my app store purchase history so that i can start over?
    If none of this is possible, does anyone have a possible solution?
    If i were to redownload aperture (currently for free since it won't let me pay) when a subsequent update comes out (say it goes from version 3.2.2 to 3.2.3) can i then elect to buy aperture, pay the fee and will it appear as a purchased app and allow me to get upgrades going forward?  Would any data be compromised with this?
    Many thanks for your help!

    1. Do you have a backup connected to your Mac that contains the app? If so, yes the MAS can detect that and believes that the app is installed.
    2. If the app no longer appears in the purchase history on the Purchased pane in the MAS, then it would seem that Apple has taken care of that.
    4. Updates, such as you describe are free. Upgrades are not. An upgrade is a new paid version of the app, such as v 3.0 to v 4.0.

  • Apple ID blocked on iPhone  app updates, Mastercard no longer recognized

    All the sudden my Mastercard (canada) is no longer recognized. I checked with my bank and everything seems to be fine from their side.
    Every time I type the security code, it gives me the message that " this card cannot be used with the itunes store".
    After several attempts, I gave up and modified my account to payment "None" option.
    They don't want my money: ...fine
    Now what is more annoying is that I can't update my apps anymore on my iPhone. I get the message "Apple ID blocked". However, I am able to visualize my ID on the iPhone. I modified my password. Nothing helped. I tried another ID I have from having lived for many years in Europe. All the time my Canadian ID pops up on the App update function with the message "Apple ID blocked".
    Can anybody help with that? If this continues, I am seriously thinking about legal action as I paid for these apps and now I can't access up-to-date functions for a software which I own. Any ideas if there are some consumer defense organizations out there to help with that.
    I am seriously fed up with all the time lost with this problems (3 days spending my time working on this problem now!!!!)

    So I purchased Navigon app on my iphone 4 with my iTunes account id then got a new iPhone 4s and signed in with the required Apple ID and now Navigon app does not recognize me as its owner.  When I try to restore purchases I make on the app it tells me to buy it first.  The problem seems to be it defaults to my Apple ID when I am asked for a password and does not give me the option of using my iTunes account ID and password which is what I used when I purchased the app.  HELP?

  • Many Apps are no longer working after webOS 1.4 update! - please help!

    Hi,
    Many of my previously working Palm Pre Apps are no longer working after the webOS 1.4 update.
    Here are the ones that just return a blank/white screen after launching so far:
    SplashID
    Daily Devo
    Daily Light (Love)
    Absolute Fitness (some options no longer work correctly & are returning a white screen and some options are working)
    These are just a few of the Apps that I am having problems with and there are probably many others.  I have also sent emails/posted to forums on the developer sites to advise. Hopefully I will hear something back soon.
    Anyone else experiencing this issue as well with any Apps?
    Thanks in advance for any help that you can provide.

    SplashID on my Sprint Pre is showing just a blank screen after starting it and entering my password.  I see no update for it in the App Catalog.
    EDIT: Never mind.  It appears that it only did that on the first launch.  I closed it and restarted it, and now the screen in SplashID is correct.
