App won't finish downloading and can't remove

We have tried to load a free app on iphone but says that still downloading (it has been some weeks). We can not remove this app because it will not show us a "x" to delete like the other apps. It just stis there. Help!

Turn off the iphone. Open itunes in your computer. Click Store>Check for Available Downloads
Connect the iphone and sync the app to the iphone from itunes.
Hopefully this will help.

    Plug your device into the original charger & block in a wall outlet and leave it alone for a couple of hours. Then, while it is still plugged in, restart it by holding down the home button and the power button for 10-15 seconds until you see the Apple, then let go.

    Apps will not finish loading and can't delete them also

    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    You will have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.
    No data is lost due to a reset.

  • Movie won't finish downloading and won't go away!

    My daughter started a download of a movie and was planning on renting it for a single showing. The movie has never finished downloading and everytime my ITunes syncs up when I start the computer, the downloading resumes and then I get an error message. I really don't want this movie anymore and I have tried to delete it, but it always seems to come back. How do I kill it once and for all.

    Try reset your iPad. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo.

  • Ipod Touch Apps Won't Finish Downloading

    I started to download a few game apps on my ipod touch, and it was going fine, but then the it stopped and the status said 'waiting', and didn't change for a while and then the rest changed to 'waiting' also, so i tried to download another app to see if it works, but this time its just stays 'loading', with the black bar still all black.i can connect to the internet with no problems, but the apps won't continue to download.
    i was wondering if anyone knows what happened and more importantly how to fix this. if you need any other information just tell me, and i will try to answer to the best of my ability.
    Ipod Touch 2.2.1

    try this....go to your settings and get to your wi fi - turn it off.....then wait a minute and turn it back on...try it then ...I waited 15mins on the phone for a support agent to tell me that. How frustrating! Hope it helps! but my problem is that is gave me internet access (which I was having problems with) and my app downloaded successfully, however, it wont pull up now. It just sits as a pretty icon and we cant use it! So what, now another 15minute wait to find out ***???

  • ITunes App Won't Finish Downloading. Help please.

    I have been trying to download "The Bard's Tale" game app from iTunes for a couple days now. The app is 1.3gb in size. The download will start, but then it stops at 362.5mb and says "err -3259 The connection has timed out". I have the latest version of iTunes, the latest iPod update and a solid internet connection. I have also tried disabling my firewall completely with no success as well as disabling any antivirus software (which I don't really even have).
    Also, get this: I tried downloading the same app on a friends computer (using the same wifi internet connection) and it still stopped at 362.5mb. I have tried everything. Other apps will download just fine on iTunes but this app won't. And it can't be the size because the last thing I downloaded before this was a 777mb iPod software update. Any ideas at all? Thanks!

    Hi Do a Reboot Press & hold power button & menu button hold both down until you see Apple Logo you will not lose any data. Cheers Brian

    how do i get itunes to completely install??

    a pop up error message says itunes couldnt be configured
    I'd like to have a closer look at that error message please.
    Generate the error message again. While the error message box is open, hold down the Alt key and hit the PrtSc key. Paste the screenshot into an image file (using a program like Paint), and save the file.
    Start a reply here and click the wee camera icon at the top of the reply window. Click "Choose file", browse to the image file, select the file and click "Open". Now click "Insert file" to insert the screenshot into the reply.

  • Ipad games stuck on "download" and can not remove

    I have downloaded 2 games from the apps on my ipad 2 and the message says to connect to a computer as they are over 20 mb. I synced my ipad with the computer and now the games are fully loaded on the desktop but will not load to the ipad. I can't remove them as they  are frozen in "downloading" on the ipad.

    Hey Angela,
    Turn the iPad off and then back on: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4057
    Try to delete them now if they didn't go away already
    If the issue persists and your iPad is running the latest version of the OS, restore: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    Hope that helps.

    There is no need to keep re-buying it.

  • TS1424 My film I rented from iTunes has frozen half way through downloading and won't finish downloading, any ideas?

    My film I rented from iTunes has frozen half way through downloading and won't finish downloading, any ideas?

    TRy to close itunes by double tapping the home button then slide up all of the open apps and try again.
    another option is to turn off your ipad, logout from your itunes account and try again downloading the movie. If it still gives you error, call apple support and ask for itunes agent to see if there is something wrong with the movie you are trying to download

  • Need help with an app that won't finish downloading to my iPhone 5s

    This app will neither finish downloading, nor will it delete. The app is called Google Translate. please help me. Thank you all in advance.

    Did you already try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Appel logo comes back again? You will not lose data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches.
