Apps icon shows updates, but nothing in updates window

Hey everyone,
I have the usual number of apps to be updated next to the Apps Icon under Library in iTunes, but when I click "X updates available", there's nothing to update.
Any thoughts?
cheers,
Daz.

Go into your puchased tab and download each update (you'll find the app icons with little update banners on them.)
Alternatively,  if you sync with a computer, you can use the iTunes on your computer to  download the updates then sync them onto your device.
Or you can be patient and wait for Apple to fix the issue

  • Getting Angry Bird App updates, but nothing is updated after updating

    I got the notices that there's updates for Angry Birds, Angry Birds Rio, and Angry Birds Season.  I download the updates, go to the apps, and NOTHING has been updated.  I remember there being some type of message saying something along the lines of "you have already downloaded this app but has not been updated.  Please connect to computer......"  i clicked on update, they've been updated!  I went ahead and connected to computer and still, nothing!  Whats the problem!?

    I faced the Same Issue. It is resolved by changing the language at Settings-->General-->International-Language. Change the Current Language ( I have changed it from British English to English). Then after a succesful change, Go to Appstore- Updates. The Issue is resolved. Now go back to your original Setting (if required)

  • HT204406 I can't seem to download songs from iTumes Match on my new iPhone 5. It still works fine on my iPad. Both are running ios6 and there is plenty of free space on the phone (20 GB or so). The download icon shows & flashes but nothing happens.

    I am trying to play songs from iTunes Match on my phone everything is enabled. The songs and playlists show up but when I select one it won't download or play. The download status icon next to the song name flashes on and off but nothing happens. When I go to the iTunes Store the download section shows the same behavior - it flashes that there is 1 download continuously but nothing downloads. My iPad on the same network also running ios6 works fine. Any ideas?

    Problem closed (although not resolved).  After working with Apple support, no resolution was found.  I asked for a refund of the iTunes match purchase price, which was granted.  Interestingly the support tech, who was very nice if not particularly helpful from a technical point of view, spun the "resolution" of refunding my iTunes match purchase price as a positive one, here is a quote from the final email
    "I'm glad to hear that you're not having issues with the songs you've purchased.  Nothing makes Apple happier than to hear that our customers concerns have been rectified."
    It is notable that I never had an issue downloading music directly purchased thru the iTunes store, the only issue that existed was downloading songs that I ripped from my CD collection and "matched". 
    I'm happy that I received my money back, however I wish that the iTunes Match service worked for me (I was looking forward to this service).  I'm most upset at the time I wasted trying to fix this problem.
    I'll now download music the old fashioned way: syncing with iTunes directly.

  • Applications Badge still showing 1 to update - but nothing to update !

    This has been going on quite a while - in the left hand pane it will say "Applications" and have the number 1 next to it - but yet when i go to have a look, there are no updates
    Does anyone know how to remove it ? I don't know why it thinks it's still got one left !

    I finally got rid of my phantom number 1 by selecting all my applications and deleting them from iTunes. When the option to "keep files" or "move to trash" appeared, I selected "keep files". Then, I restarted iTunes, selected File -> Add to Library and selected all the applications in iTunes -> Mobile Applications. Got them all back in the library without the mysterious number 1 that had refused to go away.

  • My apps icon shows I have updates but when I go to the page it does not show the updates

    My apps icon show I have updates but when I go to the page nothing shows up.

    The update server is down; try this temporary workaround
    App Store>Purchased>Select "All"
    Note: Look out for apps that have the word "Update"

    I think there's a problem with the update server. Try again later.

  • I have apps from old work account that I can't remember the password to. On my personal phone those apps keep showing up but I can't update them because I can't remember the password. How can I delete them and download on my new account?

    Tap and hold an app until they all start jiggling and an X appears in the icon's top left corner. One by one tap the X to delete the app. when they are all gone you are free to buy them again with your own account.

    Hi, Sly101.
    I would recommend closing any open applications in multitasking and restarting the device.  If unfamiliar with multitasking, I have included a screenshot on how to process an application close.  Test the results after processing these steps.
    If the issue persists, see the section labeled Troubleshooting on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch in the article below.

    I have I-phone 4S - Since updating to IOS 6, when at home with Wi-Fi network with my I Phone connection is not responding sometimes – for example if I want to check my G-mail it shows loading but nothing happens and after few minutes it displays “Cannot Get Mail” – The mail server “imap.gmail.com is not responding, Verify that you have entered the correct account info in mail settings
    Other times the Wi-Fi connection works fine and it check e-mail or other within few seconds. The connection problems seems to be intermitted
    This issue never happened before with IOS 5 since I bought the new phone in Oct 2011.

    We suffered the imap.gmail.com server problem After an IoS 6 upgrade. The simple solution is to delete the problem account, shut down the iPad, start up again and reenter the account. Everything comes back normally. Good Luck everyone!

    By install i presume you mean add it to the bottom of the machine ?
    Yes, and it's rather easy to do too.
    Your machine has two slots. These are the specs for a 2008 iMac (if your machine is different then check with Crucial.com and they will match the correct RAM for your machine)
    Maximum Memory
    6.0 GB (Actual) 4.0 GB (Apple)
    Memory Slots
    2 - 200-pin PC2-6400 (800MHz) DDR2 SO-DIMM
    So all you need to do is visit Crucial.com or OtherWorld Computing to order it, and OtherWorld Computing has install videos.
    Here is one on YouTube. Easy pleasy.
    Just make sure to discharge any static electricity and not touch the contacts, just the plastic edges.

    Sometimes the updater gets in a funny state - Go to http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/ and download the full installer. Close Firefox and run the installer

  • IPad apps show waiting but nothing happening? Anyone know why

    Ipad3 apps show waiting but nothing is happening does anyone know why or what to do

    This can happen from time to time. Something is clogging the download queue on your iPad. See if one of these suggestions helps you get this sorted out.
    1. Tap the "waiting" icon and see if you can pause it. If it does pause, then tap it again and see if it will resume. If that works, repeat the same steps for each "waiting" icon.
    2. 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.
    3. 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.
    4. 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.
    5. 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.
    6. You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered.
    7. If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.
