Apps in wait
My apps are in state of "waiting"
This happens when the device becomes disconnected from the network before the app finishes downloading from the app store. To resolve this issue, try restart first. If that fails, try to delete the app by holding it til it wiggles, then click the x to delete the app. Lastly, if the app is still stuck in waiting, reset the network settings by going to settings>general>reset>reset network settings. This will delete any network keys or passwords but will resolve any lingering issues.

iPad App Store app said "20 updates". Attempted to update w/3G. Updated some, but now many apps say "waiting" and are frozen. I attempted to update then by attaching to computer Itunes Store. All it did was very quickly go thru the 4 steps and said, "Synched, OK to uplug." I clicked my ipad and then apps. It also said Update complete (or something like that). Now several apps on iPad are frozen and say "Waiting". Help!!
Oh a few other things I forgot.
The long winded back-ups!!!! JESSSSSSH! Although I think the latest update seems to have bit into this a bit.
Also why is it that sometimes when the iPhone is syncing it will not say on the actual iPhone that it is syncing. I see it's syncing in iTunes but the iPhone doesn't have the typical do not disconnect -syncing message!!! What's odd is I can see the new apps being updated to the iPhone and as long as I don't open any apps it will finish it's sync but the minute I open any apps the iPhone will lock-up!!! -
TS3274 I just synced my old iPad to my new iPad....the apps show "waiting" and I do not know why
I just synced my old iPad to my new iPad....the apps show "waiting" and I do not know why. It has been 2 days. I wiped my old iPad even?
Connect to iTune; and Check for available download (under Store). When download is completed, sync to iPad.

How do I stop an app from waiting? I have tried to reboot by holding the home key and power button to power down. The app is still grayed out and waiting so it cannot be deleted. Also, I have tried to sync the apps from my laptop and tried downloading new appswith no success. Can you help? Thanks
If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.

iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1725
Another thing to try - Turn the iPad Off & then back ON.
If that doesn't work:
• Log out of your iTunes store account. Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
• Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
• After restart, the Waiting should be gone.

I updated to ios7 on my iphone 4 and now cant install apps and one app says waiting for 2 days now. Also it started ading apps from my wife's phone onto my phone even though we have separate apple ids.
We do not share an apple ID and her phone is now logged in with her account and I have since backed it up on itunes under her account as well. I have turned off automatic downloads on her phone but they still keep downloading. I delete one app and then another one just appears on the phone.

Since updating to IOS 8.1 on ipad mini can't download apps from iTunes store. Apps show "waiting." Have reset to new condition with no improvement. Also turned off Wi-Fi and re-connected. Any solution? Thanks,
If you restored your iPad as new, and it still didn't help, I don't know if anything in here will help. in any event, I have posted this boilerplate of suggestions many times in the past and the suggestions in here have worked for others at one time or another. Feel free to give them a try.
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. If you see a downloads tab in the lower right corner, then there is a download in iTunes.
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. Reset your router. Unplug it from power for about 30 seconds and then plug it back in again. -
TS1702 App will not install. App says "waiting"
Why will app not install? App says "waiting"
In this order try ....
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>iTunes and 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.

How to Use Multiple iDevices with One Computer -
App says "Waiting"
Am getting super annoyed with this...
iPad 2, wifi only.
Was doing an upgrade of apps from my computer to my iPad. A couple Apps obviously failed to sync despite being attached to my laptop for 15 hours. Both "Garage band" and "Numbers" are stuck in a "waiting" state. I was on Wifi all last night and they refused to update. I am mobile today and need to use a spreadsheet but it still says "Waiting".
How is this efficient syncing? I have 2 gigs free, and the apps just say "waiting..." What are they waiting for? Doomsday?
Any way to fix this? Im finding all this sandbox stuff garbage when it deletes all your data along with an App, and i don't get it back unless i restore the ENTIRE device.. What gives? Why is there no easy way to manage this stuff? How is this supposed to be a productivity device when it does stuff like this that disallows you from being productive? If I don't use iCloud or even if i DO, do i have to say goodbye to any data that hasn't synced yet because Apples software didn't do it's job and update the software correctly? What if i don't have my MacBook or backups with me? Then i'm pretty much hooped, just as I am now...
For ease of use, this isn't getting a passing grade. I shouldn't have to make sure by off chance that a sync destroyed an app in the night and I can no longer use it until I wipe it off and start fresh. Absolute garbage.Only the two apps Garage Band and Numbers seemed to have goten stuck in this state. No other downloads are pending.
Well I guess the aggravating thing about this is that it did update via my computer, but obviously it failed to update completely, even as i said, being allowed to sync for about 15 hours. There was no error however on my iPad or on my computer saying something failed to copy. Thats not cool, but if thats the case, give me a route to update without deleting the offending App first and losing any data within it's contents. Going to the App store on the iPad just said "Installing" and wouldn't let me download the app again.
If i had no internet connection and just wanted to, yaknow, USE the iPad, then i'd be screwed. I have it tethered right now but nothing is more demoralizing then downloading 200mb over a very slow tether just so i can vew a spreadsheet that should be resident within the "Waiting..." app.
Apparently if i want to be productive with this tool, then after a wifi sync im going to have to check to make sure the apps i actually need to use have synced properly despite getting no errors to the contrary.
Grrrr i say, grrrr. -

APP-6: Waiting 10 seconds to connect to peer.
Does anyone know what this error means?
"APP-6: Waiting 10 seconds to connect to peer."
I see hundreds of them in my sys.log. I am running a 11506 that we have recently migrated to from a 11503.Hi,
The message you mentioned is an indication that the APP session running on the CSS will
connect to the remote peer running app in 10 seconds. This is just an indication and this message is normal. To avoid seeing this message, you need to reduce the logging of APP messages to 5 or lower. To do this, use the command "logging subsystem app level 5"

Why is all my apps in "waiting" mode
Why does all my apps say waiting?
I'm posting my experience because 1) lots of people are having this problem, frustration is high (as was mine last night) 2) I haven't seen any solutions online that worked for me, and 3) I spent half an hour on the phone with Apple Tech Support so you dont have to. Spoiler alert: It solved my problem.
I had the same problem described above and on other threads, though different from many other threads. I had just gotten my brand-new iPad (spring 2012) and spent hours choosing, redownloading (I had an iPad 2) and organizing apps into folders. Then... it happened. No new apps would download, each icon would show up and say "Waiting…" for hours if I left it alone. It should be noted that I was redownloading iCloud backups of purchased apps, not a restore from my iPad 2 backup or individual app downloads from the App Store.
I tried all the suggestions out there that I found, to no avail. It seems those measures were aimed at iTunes downloads rather than the iCloud restores: delete the pending downloads, clear the iTunes download cue of partial downloads, log out of the iTunes store in Settings, hard reset, and log back in, etc.
So I called Apple Support and they suggested I "Erase all contents and settings" option in Settings -> General -> Reset. It was to make sure it wasn't a hardware issue, and it downloaded apps fine, so I repeated the Erase and restored my iCloud backup. And voílà, after 4-5 hours of app downloads (I have HUNDREDS of apps, your restore may not take as long), I'm back up and running, able to download apps and iTunes songs/podcasts.
Steps:
1. Backup to iCloud BEFORE you do this if you already have your apps and folders set up just how you like them
2. Go to Settings -> General -> Reset -> Erase all contents and settings
3. On startup, choose "Restore from iCloud backup", or "Set up as new iPad" if you don't wish to use a backup
It really is MUCH less painfu than I ever thought a wipe and repeat setup would be, thanks to the magic of iCloud backups! Good luck.
