Apps I am trying to download are frozen and icon says waiting. ?

How do I clear apps that say waiting?

This happens sometimes, not sure why, but it is annoying! I have found that it will eventually fix itself and either download the apps, or just erase them. But if it's really bugging you, try a hard reset. Hold down the "sleep/wake" button and the "home" button at the same time for about 15 seconds. You will see the red slider screen to turn off the ipad, just ignore it. The iPad will shut itself off, then restart. When you see the Apple logo appear, you can let go of the buttons. See if this fixes the problem. If not, you can restore your iPad in itunes, just back it up first.

HT204266 I downloaded an app and it does not show up as an icon to open the app. I went to download it again and it says "installed"

I downloaded an app from my Ipod touch and it does not show up as an icon to open the app. I went to reinstall the app and it says "installed" How do I find the app so I can use it?

Try using the Spotlight search on the iPod to try to find the app. It is likely that you just can't find it.

My phone is telling me there is a billing problem with a precious purchase and won't let me download or update anything even though the apps in trying to download are free and updates are free. And I only have one card so I can't update my payment info

My phone is telling me that I have a billing problem with a precious purchase but I only have one card so I can't update my payment information so I can't update anything or download anything. What should I do?

Are you aware of any problem with a previous purchase ? If not then you should contact iTunes Support and see if they can tell you what it is (until it's sorted you won't be able to download anything from the store) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
If you go into the payment details section on your account then does it say anything about your card being declined or not accepter or if the security code needs re-entering ?

Updates and downloads are frozen. Now what do I do?

I have about 3 App updates and one download that are just sitting there saying "waiting...".   It's been that way for the last couple of hours. I have tried powering off and on. I have tried connecting the sync cable and downloading the updates, etc. from my laptop. They downloaded. I synced, but the those same Apps are just sitting there saying "waiting...".
My other Apps work. Apps that use wireless can use it fine.
My iPad has a 14GB capacity.   About 8+ is in use and 5+ is free. I updated to the iOS 5 last week.
What now?

pjl123,
Not sure if this is going to be readable. It looked weird after I posted it.
Now we are getting somewhere. That WAS helpful.   At first when you said "iTunes" I thought, "Oh, no, this guy hasn't even read the problem. There is no iTunes on my iPad. iTunes is on my computer, and I know the problem isn't there."
But you sure sounded like you knew what you were talking about, so I went looking. I clicked on the App Store icon and looked around. No problem there. Then I thought about the "Music" icon. Wasn't that named iTunes before the update or was it iPod? I don't remember.
Lo, and behold!   I clicked on Music, then on Store. There was a red cirlce with a number 5 siting on top of Downloads. I went in there and paused those downloads. I went back out of all of that and looked at the App whose update was previously frozen. It was sitting there completed.
I went to Purchases and chose an old App that I had not yet downloaded. It downloaded with no problem.
But I still had those downloads that were stuck, and there was no way to abort them; I could only pause or restart.. Drawing on previous advice from Demo, I double clicked the Home button, closed Music and iTunes, and did a two button restart thingy. (It might have helped that downloads were set on pause.) When I restart I went into iTunes (oh, found an icon for that, btw, that I hadn't previously seen...duh!) and restarted one of the downloads. It downloaded. So I took them one by one. They have all downloaded, except for two downloads having to do with the Economist Magazine.
HERE IS THE PROBLEM (I think)
I have an App for the Economist Magazine. They evidently have done a complete app replacement rather than an update. I think I no longer have the app that these issues are trying to download to. Could that be the problem? The downloads in question are called "Syria's Crisis" and "Babbage: November 16...".   So I guess you would consider them documents that are somehow linked to a defunct app. I'm just speculating.
So now the question is: How do I get rid of these two stuck downloads.? Keeping them paused will probably solve my original problem, but I would like to clear them out.
Thanks guys for your help. pjl123 - Correct answer. Demo - Helpful answer (qutting App Store and restarting)

Are you on WiFi or 3G? If WiFi, when I've had this happen, first I go to Settings & turn WiFi off. Wait a minute, then turn it back on. Usually fixes things.

I'm trying to update apps and download new ones on mi ipad, but it doesn't work... the icons say "waiting" and nothing happens for days!Help!

Here are a bunch of things that you can try to get the downloads to resume.
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.

That's because you must be trying to download a Windows application, and they do not run on a Mac unless you are running Windows on the Mac.
Helpful Links Regarding Malware Protection
An excellent link to read is Tom Reed's Mac Malware Guide.
For adware removal see The Safe Mac » Adware Removal Guide and The Safe Mac » Adware Removal Tool.
Also, visit The XLab FAQs and read Detecting and avoiding malware and spyware.
See these Apple articles:

OS X Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
OS X Mountain Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
OS X Mavericks- Protect your Mac from malware
About file quarantine in OS X
If you require anti-virus protection Thomas Reed recommends using ClamXAV. (Thank you to Thomas Reed for this recommendation.)
From user Joe Bailey comes this equally useful advice:
The facts are:
1. There is no anti-malware software that can detect 100% of the malware out there.
2. There is no anti-malware that can detect anything targeting the Mac because there
     is no Mac malware in the wild, and therefore, no "signatures" to detect.
3. The very best way to prevent the most attacks is for you as the user to be aware that
     the most successful malware attacks rely on very sophisticated social engineering
     techniques preying on human avarice, ****, and fear.
4. Internet popups saying the FBI, NSA, Microsoft, your ISP has detected malware on
    your computer is intended to entice you to install their malware thinking it is a
    protection against malware.
5. Some of the anti-malware products on the market are worse than the malware
    from which they purport to protect you.
6. Be cautious where you go on the internet.
7. Only download anything from sites you know are safe.
8. Avoid links you receive in email, always be suspicious even if you get something
    you think is from a friend, but you were not expecting.
9. If there is any question in your mind, then assume it is malware.
