Apps won't update - iPad mini w/Retina

This is an iPad min w/Retina display. 128GB, iOS 8.0.2, WiFi + Cellular (AT&T)
In the AppStore, there are now 12 apps that show as having pending updates. There has not been an update installed since Oct. 11. If I tap Update All, the progress icons show for all of them but there is never any sign of progress downloading the update for any of them. If pause an individual update then tap Update for an that one app, the same thing happens; the progress icon never shows any progress. I have restarted the iPad; no change. WiFi and cellular are both working normally but the update failure happens with both. Updates are working normally on my iPhone 6.
Any bright ideas out there?
Thanks,
Wayne

Update. Problem is solved!
Here's what worked for me:
Deleted the WSJ Mobile app and verified that the pending update was no longer showing
Shut the iPad down and waited for 15 min.
Restarted iPad
All pending updates in the App Store proceeded to download and install normally.
Went to the Newsstand to re-install WSJ app and found that it had re-installed itself??
This might work for others with a similar problem??

  • I want to restart my iPad mini with retina display from scratch.  I can't

    I was trying to get some purchased apps onto my new ipad mini with retina display.  Problem, I can't seem to download everything so I want to start over.  How can I restart or reload my iPad mini?

    FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
    1. Turn off iPad
    2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
    3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
    4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
    DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
    5. Release Home button.
    ON COMPUTER
    6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
    7. Select "Restore iPad"...
    Note:
    1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
    2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY.
    3. Repeat the process if necessary.

  • Ipad mini with retina-- apps crashing on ios 8. Even apps updated for ios 8 are also crashing

    AFter updating my ipad mini retina to ios 8, apps already updated for ios 8 are crashing like...scanner pro by readdle,

    Me too. I've been an Apple fan for a long time but things are starting to get painful. I hate telling people not to upgrade but I can't honestly recommend otherwise.
    A bad thing is that these problems are not predictable. I have an iPad Mini - no retina that I got for free for opening a new bank account. I am a developer so I have run it on iOS 8 for some time. Even the released version has annoying bugs that weren't there on iOS 7. While the performance isn't great, it is useable. But a retina would have higher requirements and perhaps iOS 8 makes your machine too slow.
    Do try all of the resetting and troubleshooting techniques. They may help.

  • After updating to iOS 8.0.2 on my iPad mini w/Retina, FaceTime crashes

    I updated to iOS 8.0.2 on my iPad mini w/Retina Display 128Gb. Now, when I attempt to open the FaceTime app it begins to initialize and then simply crashes out. I can receive a FaceTime call and the FaceTime app will open but I cannot initiate a FaceTime call. I have “Restored” my iPad mini twice but on both occasions I have restored from a backup. As the behaviour continues, this leads me to believe that my backup is potentially corrupted. I do not wish to “Restore as new” because of the substantial time burden this would place on me to manually reinstall all of my apps, passwords, settings and customizations that ten months of usage of my iPad mini has entailed.
    Does anyone have any suggestions on how to correct this problem? Will an impending iOS 8.1 update correct this issue? Thanks in advance for any replies.

    I am heaving the same problem but in this case is rather exemptuated; i live in dubai and in order to use facetime i need a vpn service which i regularly use with facetime and Skype through my ipad mini retina display 2013; the problem started after i upgraded to iOS 8 and then it got worst after the 8.01 and then the 8.02 upgrade, it claimed to fix some bugs but unfortunately it worsen my performance; when i set the vpn on and then use the ipad it constantly shows a grey screen with the words "Poor Coneectivity" and it remains that way for the whole conversation, it is gruesome, i did reset my device and to make matters worse it didn't want to download all my apps from either my itunes nor through my iCloud backup, it was from bad to worse, after i got that settled it still remained the same "poor connectivity" issues as well as the wifi dropping as well as the data, and it claimed that my data and wifi were off when it wasn't.
    At first i thought something is not right, not even the iOS 7 did this when it first came out; and today i realised that when i picked up my ipad it was frozen sideways as if i tilted it (when read or watch videos for a better perspective) and i noticed that the lock rotation icon was not turned on and it was locked in that sideways position; i had to reset the ipad and then it started to work again fine except for the facetime, which by the way bluetooth also gives me issues.
    the only way i could verify my ipad's status was for me to use my iphone 6's facetime and it worked fine, the tilting the audio as well as the bluetooth; the only issue my iphone 6 gave me was that the wifi and data would suddenly come out asking me to connect to a wifi or turn on data for facetime use etc and it would try to reconnect; which is the same issue that a lot of people are facing with the ios8 upgrade and the latter upgrades were said to fix that particular issue but it didn't.
    i am worried and i don't know if my ipad is going through hardware issues or its only the iOS setbacks that came with the upgrade, any ideas, thank you.

  • Ipad mini with retina wifi extremely slow/dead after ios 8 update

    Just updated my devices to iOS 8. Im having no issues with the Iphone 5s wifi works perfectly fine. But with the Ipad Mini w/ Retina I can't get any wifi. Its connected, I've reset the wifi & router. But my mini keeps saying there isnt any internet connection. Anyone else have this issue?

    After updating my iPhone 4s that worked absolutely fine, i set about my iPAD 2,
    took forever for the request made icon change to down loading, then installing. Once completed i had severe connection issues, Safari not finding servers, iOS telling me my password was incorrect so real problems, i could not even populate the BBC news app it just stuck as did Ebay, Amazon, Maplin etc Apps...
    Not one to panic but terrified because i'm off on holiday for a week to Spain on Saturday, i use my iPad to remote my PC and remote assistance to systems i fit, and i have several hundred pages in Notes which i use as 'sticky's'.so do i need this like a hole in the head?
    tried several reboots, eventually last resort before defaulting and clearing it out, and restoring, fearing loosing those precious notes (not certain they were all backed up), I reset my network settings (which wipes all stored login details for various sites, resets WiFi details etc),
    To my Massive relief it cured all the connection problems i was having, so for some reason something must have corrupted.
    you need to know what details you used on each site you use.
    suggest you all try it
    Other suggestion is you do need a lot of spare memory space, so park large files onto PC in alternative cloud storage, then delete from your device. You can restore deleted apps afik no are charged again, so delete those your not really using making sure you keep the data safe.
    hope it helps

  • Hey, I have an unopened iPad mini that I won at work and I'm wondering if there's an upgrade option where I can exchange this for an iPad mini with retina display? Thanks

    Take it to an Apple store and ask. All they can do is say no. They may ask for a purchase receipt to make sure it's not stolen.

  • The Apple ID has been changed on my iPad but the apps won't update with the new id and password, including the apps that came with the iPad so I can't delete and reinstall with new Apple ID

      What do you do if you have bought a used iPad and the apps won't update without the original id and password.  Can't delete the apps that come with the iPad and reinstall them so what do I do?

    Correct. An app can only be updated under the Apple ID that was used to orginally acquire the app. If that is a problem you can delete the app and download again under the new userid. If you paid for the app you will have to pay again. Your old Apple ID does not go away so there is no reason to not use it to download the apps.
    You cannot delete the apps that came with IOS. If you want to "hide" the apps simply put the apps into an application folder by dragging one app onto another. You can do this to all the IOS apps.

  • Apps won't update on iPad

    Arrrrggghhh!   My iPad is buggered. I have 36 updates waiting and none of them will update. I'm away for the holidays so can't connect to my computer.  I've tried powering off normally and doing a hard reboot (power + home) - nothing.  It shows the black bar across the bottom of the app but nothing is happening.  I've done the software update to 5.0.1.  And when I click on just one app to be updated is says that it can't be downloaded at this time. 
    Please help....

    I bought a new iPad in 2012. Everything was fine, but now two apps won't update. Message: "Unable to download application. Could not be downloaded at this time." I have 30GB free space. Affects Sketchpad Pro and Adobe Touch. The biggest problem is that I can't use the apps!!!!! I'm okay with using an older version but this update cycle has locked me out of using them at all. Yes, my iTunes is up-to-date and synched to the correct time zone.

  • My apps won't update on my iPad 1.

    My apps won't update on my iPad 1. I tried resetting the iPad and updating it on my iTunes. They say they are waiting and in the meantime I can't use those apps at all.

    Do you have a song or podcast in iTunes that did not finish downloading? If you do - finish that one first. The apps will not update until that download is complete.
    If that doesn't do it - sign out of your account - Settings>Store>Apple ID - sign out. Restart the iPad. 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>Store>Sign in and sign in again and see if you can tap on one app and start the download.

  • HT1222 Just bought a ipad mini with retina. On my settings page its showing ios7.0.4 software update. "Estimating time remainin..." but doesn't seem to complete update. This message has been showing since last evening. How can I end or complete this opera

    I just bought an ipad mini with retina display. On my settings page it shows an update occurring for ios.7.0.4 with the message "Estimating time remaining..."
    This update and message appeared last evening but doesn't seem to complete. It also says "downloading", but nothing is happening.
    How can I complete the download or eliminate it?

    If it's slow on startup it would be extensions loading or LaunchDaemons starting up. 
    You should have a look in:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons
    /Library/Extensions
    You can count out anything in your home folder and it shouldn't put anything in /System as that's reserved for Apple. 

  • Since updating my iPad to IOS 7.1.2, individual Apps won't update from with Apps.  Has anyone else had this issue?

    Thanks SerZak!  I lost my reply to your post.  But I discovered I was logged out after the update.  I logged back in and it was sorted.  I wouldn't have worked this out on my own, so thank you for you help.  Much appreciated. 

  • How do I decline an iOS 8.0.1 update on my iPad mini with retina display when I already updated to 8.0.2?

    How do I decline an iOS 8.0.1 update on my iPad mini with retina display when I already updated to 8.0.2?

    How do you mean? Once you have 8.0.2 on there it shouldn't be asking you to download 'old' software.
    Did the older installer download already and is lurking on your device? Settings, general, usage. Populate the list and you should see and be able to delete it from there.

    the ipad mini with retina free apps by apple have disappeared? e.g. keynote and imovie. i gotthem free with my ipad then when i deleted them i could still re-download them but now they cost money to download. i hope someone know how to fix my problim. thanks

    Just want to add.
    I replied to them for a waiver., and they reply with quite a similar email again, without helping.
    The customer service IMO just use a template to answer question. Refer me back to the developer , which is apple itself

  • Updated iPad mini 2 to 8.2. Apps now slow & jerky.

    Updated iPad mini 2 to 8.2. Now the apps and Finder function are slow and jerky.  Got any ideas?

    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.
