Apps in iTunes on Macbook will not update

The Apps in my iTunes on my Macbook do not update anymore. I also have an iMac with iTunes logged in as same account and those apps update like normal. I have not been able to fix it.
Also, notmally when you view App Thumbnails in iTunes, if you klik on an icon then it expands to show information, latest version, etc....Mine does not do that anymore.

  • I add songs to itunes, but ipod will not update!

    I imported songs onto my itunes library. But when I plug it in the usb to update, it will automatically disconnect after 5 minutes, and the ipod will not update. I've tried adding all music, and just checked songs; both do not not work.
    I have version 7.0.0.7
    I have about 50% of room left on my ipod.
    Any suggestions??

    Hello Rex225
    The best way to resolve the issue is to remove the music from the iPhone and then download the purchase again using the steps in the following article.
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • My password seems to be working but my apps on my i pad will not update?  what am i doing wrong?

    i hove not been able to update apps on my ipad for weeks  my password seems to work but it will not update apps?  what am i doing wrong?

    What happens when you try to update? That is the missing element here? Without knowing what you are experiencing, it's really difficult to suggest what to do. I will go on the assumption that you are seeing the "waiting" icons. If that's the case, this is my standard response that includes quite a number of things to try.
    Even if it is not the "waiting" icons issue, one of these suggestions might help anyway.
    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 - if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first.
    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. Apps may also be able to be deleted in Settings>General>Usage>Storage if you cannot get the X to pop up on the icon.
    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.

  • ITunes on Windows will not update any iOS-device

    I have three iOS-devices. An iPod Touch 3rd gen (ver 3.1.3), and iPhone 3GS (4.2.1) and iPad. It's been a really long time that I remember that iTunes offered to update any of them. iTunes itself has been regularly updating and is now 10.5.1.42. The PC is Windows 7 Home Premium.
    So, no updates being offered when I sync the devices, it will always check and say it will check again in a few weeks. I agreed to borrow my iPad to a friend, wiped it, and the moment he hooked it up to his Mac-iTunes, it suggested iOS5. I then decided I need to get to the bottom of this update issue of my own iTunes. I started by downloading the relevant ipsw-files for my phone and Touch and trying a direct shift-restore update. The result is the message: The iPhone ... could not be updated because the firmware file is not compatible. Same message for the Touch.
    I tried installing iTunes on another computer at home, same message if I check for an update. Same error message if I try using a local file. Tried putting the Touch in DFU-mode, in that case iTunes goes through a lengthy update process, but the result is the same 3.1.3 iOS.
    Nothing in the hosts-file about Apple. The Touch and the iPhone have never had any beta-releases or jailbreak code. The only thing I can think of is that I have two iTunes-accounts. My regular European one, and one to the US store. However, the second iTunes I installed is empty of any purchases and only has been signed on with my European account.
    Any ideas? Have not tried Apple Support yet...if I can even get it for this old devices...

  • ITunes 10.7 will not update/install on computer

    Went to update my iTunes on my computer to 10.7 in advance of downloading the iOs6 update for my iPhone 4s today.  iTunes will not complete the install, and doesn't tell me what the errors are why it cannot complete the installation.  (Running Vista).  iTunes was still working at this point.  I then went to uninstall iTunes and re-install it, and now cannot install or open at all.  Any suggestions? 

    many thanks, that's perfect.

  • Macbook will not update from 10.9.3 to 10.9.5

    My macbook wont update. In the "About This Mac" window it says I have version 10.9.3, and in the App Store it says I have updated to version 10.9.5 on 4 different dates (which I have tried to do). It also states that there are no new updates availeable.
    Also; I keep getting this message when I try to enter network preferences: "There was an error in Network preference pane.". As a result I can only connect to networks that have already been registered, and sometimes I have to restart to connect after sleep.
    What should I do?

  • ITunes music library will not update on iPod after syncing

    I did a computer swipe a number of months ago and was only just recently able to recover my iTunes account.  So fortunately I have all my music still (well most of it.  Some of my file locations are missing but that is user error).
    Now, yesterday I synced my iPod for the first time since the clean sweep.  I was annoyed that the process completely cleaned out my iPod (of course it was not backed up because I had no way of syncing it to my account) so I lost everything except the music.
    Here's the problem:  while I can play iTunes on my laptop, none of the songs are being properly downloaded onto the iPod.  All the titles and information show up like they should, but they are greyed out so you cannot select them.
    I've tried re-syncing several times and even rebooted my laptop and re-syncing to no avail.
    My iPod is literally empty like when I first got it brand new but I can't play my music.
    Any ideas?  I'm at my last straw.

    Is the iPod signed in the iTunes account? (Settings>Store)
    Next I would try restoring the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod and then sync.

    I've followed all steps in the "Help" section & still cannot resolve.  I've never had good luck with Apple's response to these issues.  Any advice?

    Is the app compatible with your iPod model and iOS?
    Do you have a Restriction set that would prevent installing that app? Settings>General>Restrictions
    Have you successfully syced apps from this iTunes library/conmputer before?
