Apps not updating after upgrading to iOS 6

After updating my iPhone 4 to iOS 6, I am unable to update any apps. The App Store says they are downloading, but nothing happens, all the apps say "waiting" underneath them. This has been over four hours now. Anyone have any ideas?

Sadly 3 AppleCare phone calls and a Genius Bar appointment have not helped.
The only possible advice I have been given- and have NOT done yet is a complete restore and set up phone as new.
I am a bit peeved as I do not want to loose settings, saved games, saved docs, bookmarks etc. that are not cloud based.  My phone is well backed up, but there is no way to selectively restore that content.
The Apple Genius basically said I am screwed and try to set it up as a new phone.
Not exactly a glowing endorsement of the new iOS.

  • I am using Iphone 4 (not 4s) After upgrading to ios 5.0.1. is blocking. I live in Venezuela

    Without more information, I have to say it sounds like the phone you have was not legitimately unlocked, but had been hacked. Updating iOS will re-lock it to the original carrier.
    ONLY the carrier it is locked to can authorize unlocking it.
    Where did you get the phone?

  • IPhone Home Button not working after upgrade to ios 5.1.1

    Hey everyone,
    I'm pretty sure this is a software failure due to the symtoms the iPhone is showing;
    0 - the home button does not work at all when the phone is turned on and running ios 5.1.1, well it used to work okay when i had ios 5.0.1, I upgraded to 5.1.0 and started working randomly, upgraded to 5.1.1 to see if it was fixed with no luck at all.
    1 - When locked the screen does sometime light up, like when you press the home button and don't slide the unlock button. but it does not exit apps anytime, I mean it doesn't act like it's pressing the home button randomly but only when the phone is locked.
    2- The button does work perfectly when iOS is not running: I can get in and get out of recovery and dfu mode at will, that wouldn't be possible if the button were broke.
    3- what else? Oh yea, not really a symtom: Tried the 'home button calibration' several times.
    4 - It's not filthy, since I really cleaned it thoroughly with a powerful tiny nozed air blower I got and gave a rubbing alcohol treatment too.
    5 - when I shut the phone down it instantly turns back on, I can interrupt the turning on for turning the phone into dfu mode (i'm sure It's in DFU mode because the tinyumbrella log monitor tells me)
    I'm now using the 'soft' home button that goes in the accesibility options, but hey, I didn't pay a ton of money for a phone that the same Apple is gonna break down.
    It's out of warranty and I don't have apple stores where I live.
    I'd downgrade to 5.0.1 in a snap if I could but I'm not into jailbreaking, so the shsh blob thingie is not a possibility.
    Any apple dev around that can give me a workaround?
    thanks a lot in advance
    Added more info ~ 

    I had the same problem with Home button not responding after upgrading from iOS 5.1 to iOS 5.1.1 on an iPhone4.   I solved it but not sure exactly what fixed it.   Here is what I did.
    1.  Took it local Apple store Genius appointment.   They used a special tool and took some lint out of the connector opening.   The Home button started working.   They said even though the phone was out of warranty, I could buy a new replacement one without a contract for $150. 
    2.   The Home button stopped working when I got home.   I got some compressed air in a can and blew the air through the connector to try and clean out more dust.   I now keep the phone with the connector opening facing down in my pocket.   I also struck the phone downward on my hand or other soft surface to force as much dust out as possible.
    3.  The Home button still was intermittent.  I then tried to do a hard reset by holding the power on key and the Home button simultaneously for about 10 seconds.  This doesn't work if the Home button doesn't respond.
    4.  I connected the iphone to Itunes via the USB to sync the phone.  While connected, I did a Hard Reset by Holding the Power button and Home button simultaneously.  I noticed the Home button responded better when connected to ITUNES via the USB.
    5.  I did a backup of the iphone4 by highlighting the iphone 4 while connected to ITunes and right mouse click and selecting BACKUP.    I was prepared to reset my phone4 in iTUNES and restore it from the backup.
    The phone worked consistently before I had to do this.
    6.  As a last resort which I didn't need to do, I was going to copy all my settings for the iphone by selecting the phone in iTUNES and looking at all the sync settings.   I would then have restored the iphone to original factory settings and then sync the phone using the copied settings.  This would have made sure that the backup didn't include the bug.
    Fortunately, I didn't have to do step 5 and 6.   Things started working after Step 4.  So I don't really know if it was the iOS 5.1.1 upgrade or pure coincidence that the Home button stopped working immediately after the upgrade.

  • Ipad mini apps not updating after ios8.2 update

    apps not updating after software update ios8.2 on ipaD MINI WITH RETINA SCREEN

    Turn off any auto-update, if it is on, then tap any of the "circle icons" showing that a download is in progress, in order to stop the download. Then go to the Settings and reset the Network Settings. After the iPad starts back up, then check to make sure no apps are currently in progress of downloading. If any are, stop them again, and reset the network settings again. When it starts up again, none should be in the process of downloading. Then from that point forward, only download manually and never more than two at a time. If it is more than 100 MB, then do only one at a time. If any gets stuck at that point, then stop the download and reset the Network settings.
    That should take care of you for now. We'll see what another update brings ... IOS 8.2 (which might be the next one).

  • Why do Apps not update after installing iOS6?  They just hang there!

    WHy do apps not update after installing iOS6?

    Each time? every day? Just plain crazy! Updates happen automatically on your mac....why not the same thing on ipad/iphone?
    If the app was purchased on my phone with my account, surely they do not need to "verify" my credentials each time. If my phone was stolen and someone purchased a $20 app surely my $300 phone is more important?
    They need to come up with e better solution...when we all have hundred or thousands of apps on our devices what then?

  • IPhone apps not resuming after phone call - iOS 7 bug

    iPhone apps not resuming after phone call - iOS 7 bug
    With iOS 6, while playing music on Spotify or playing Candy Crush, etc, if the phone rang and I answered, or if I made a call, once the call was ended, the app I was using would resume. The music would start playing again or the game would resume.
    In iOS 7 this isn't working. Listening to music, I answer a call, music stops and when call is ended, nothing! the phone stays on the phone app.
    anybody else see this behaviour?
    thanks!

    Any ideas anyone?
    thanks

  • My iPhone 4 can not reboot after upgrading to iOS 6; keeps trying and cannot shut off either.

    My iPhone 4 can not reboot after upgrading to iOS 6; keeps trying and cannot shut off either.

    I FINALLY got it to work on BOTH iPhone 4 and iPpad 3.  Here is what I had to do:
    Had to DELETE all e-mail accounts including icloud.
    Did a hard reset (hold down button on top right corner and round button on bottom center)
    Then once it came back on, the iPhone had ALL of the accounts still on it and it was receivng e-mail.
    The iPad receive e-mail until I did the steps above 5 times.  Plus, I had to add back all of the e-mail accounts vs. on the iPhone 4 they were there when my phone came on.
    Now I am receiving e-mail on both devices normally.
    No clue why this happened, but Apple needs to find a fix ASAP.

  • Many apps not working after upgrade

    I have a lot of apps not working after upgrade even apple's remote, splash id etc... Anyone else or is it just me?

    I had trouble with MPR, but since it's free, I just deleted it and reloaded it directly from the App store onto the phone. It had an upgrade, too, that must have clashed with the 2.2 upgrade. Once I did the download, it was fine.

  • Some Of My Apps Do Not Work After Upgrading To iOS 4 And Fluctuating Wi-Fi

    After upgrading to iOS 4 on my 8GB iPod Touch, some of my audio apps do not work. CBS Radio just crashes, ESPN Radio stays on the "Station ESPN Radio data loaded" screen, and the iRadioSuite stays on "Connecting". Sirius/XM Online, iheart radio, Radio, and WunderRadio appear to work correctly. Also, I always had three bars for wi-fi signal strength on my home network before the upgrade. Now I get fluctuating levels that at times go down to two bars and even one bar. Needless to say, this is very frustrating!

    I also updated the iPhone 3G yesterday to iOS 4. I just turned on wi-fi on the iPhone. CBS Radio crashed on the iPhone but I got a steady three bar wi-fi signal strength level as I moved around the condo so this must be an 8GB iPod Touch and iOS 4 interface issue.

  • Unable to update apps on 4s after upgrading to iOS 8.1

    Hi,

I have been using for long, never had issue with app store on previous iOS migrations. anyone here can help please.

    Hi there Sam R 12,
    You may want to try force closing all open apps and resetting the device as an initial troubleshooting step. Take a look at the articles below for more information.

  • Hdmi adapter not working after upgrade to iOS 8

    My Hdmi adapter (orig. Apple) is not working anymore after upgrade to iOS 8, is there any solution.

    The IOS 8 update has nothing to do with the failure of the device. I have a HDMI adapter and it has worked fine through IOS 6, IOS 7 and IOS 8.
    You may want to restart your device by holding the home and power button until the Apple logo appears. If the adapter still fails to work you need to determine if the adapter has failed or the port on your device has failed. Best solution is to go to the Apple store with the device and the adapter. If your adapter has failed it may be under warranty if you still have the sales receipt. If the port on your device is bad then the Apple store will be able to provide you with options.

  • IPhone Bluetooth not working after upgrading to iOS 6.1.2

    I used to pair my iPhone with my Blue&Me system in my Fiat Car and it was working perfectly hitherto. Recently I have been experiencing problems with Pairing my phone with my car Bluetooth system (Which I sometimes use for receiving calls).. The phone though identifies the car system in the discovery mode but is not able to pair  and establish connection. My car Bluetooth system is working just fine with other phones. Request apple / or anyone who can help to help me overcome this issue. My car system is as important to me as iPhone and if this problem persists, i may be forced to change my phone.

    In the 4+ years of using iPhone and several other apple products, this is the first time that I am feeling frustrated with my iPhone 4S and Apple. I am surprised that so many people around the world are facing the problem with their blue tooth devices after upgrading the iOS and still there is no hope of having this situation resolved. The cause of breakage of communication between iPhone (my investment, my ownership) and other devices is of apple origin and apple can't walk away by suggesting that the other party should upgrade the Bluetooth Firmware.
    In my case, My iPhone 4S stopped paring with My Fiat car blue&me system after updating to iOS 6.1.2. The problem has not been solved in iOS 6.1.3.
    If this problem is not solved in next update the ovious solution is to move to android as I can change my phone but I can't change my car that eaisly.
