AppStore install button doesn't work on iPad Air 2

Dear Apple fans,
I'm suddenly having a weird issue with my 1 week old Air 2 (me and my dad got the same model, same store, same date): I can't download apps from the store anymore.
Whenever I click any random free app the button changes to ''install'' as it normally would. When I tap that I have to enter my code or use my finger, as is normal. But when that's over the normal download circle & pauze button do NOT appear; instead it reverts back to ''Free''.
This happens with every app, paid apps as well. It doesn't start the download, it doesn't give an error message. To make things worse: my dad has 0 issues on his device.
I CAN, however, re-download previously installed apps from the cloud just fine from the 'purchased' tab. Internet works fine. No other issues what-so-ever. Love the device.
Already tried:
Rebooting.
Re-logging.
Resetting (home + power button reset)
Combination of the above.
There are no apps waiting to be updated or downloaded and everything is up to date.
This is really annoying me since the device is otherwise perfect but I can't really be bothered to do a full firmware re-install... I hate doing stuff like that: I've got a Windows PC to annoy me with things such as that haha.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Hi Kevin ...
Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
Then try downloading an app again.
No data is lost due to a reset.

My appstore 'install' button won't work properly after being tapped. How do I fix this?

After I tap the button displaying the price, it moves to the right and becomes a small square/rectangle, then stutters and moves to the lft, become green and saying 'Insta...'. Assuming this is the Install button, I press it, but it just becomes blue again. No matter how many times I try, it doesn't install. Anyway to fix it that doesn't involve restoring or deleting any of my previously downloaded apps?

Try a reset. Press & hold the Power and Home buttons simultaneously, ignoring the red power off slider, until the Apple logo appears. Then release both buttons. This should not affect any content on the iPad, it is similar to rebooting your computer.

Leopard Snow - Update: Install button doesn't work

Software update and 10.6.1 pack: the Install button is enabled, I click it but nothing happens...
I'd appreciate some help.
Thanks,
Mauricio (using US language installation option)

If you are using a custom keyboard, then set your keyboard to the standard US layout. Then, delete this file: /users/username/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.HIToolbox. Next, log out and back in. Then try installing whatever you have been having problems with.

Lightning to VGA adapter doesn't work with Ipad Air

I have a Lightning to VGA adapter that I want to use with my Ipad Air and pc screen. When I connect it with my Ipad and the screen, on my ipad the blue bar appears but I don't get anything on my pc screen. I dit the same with my iphone 6 and that works perfect. Any idea what the problem could be?
Both devices has IOS 8.3.
Thanks in advance.

I have a similar problem to blueskoi. I have a lightning to HDMI Connector which no longer works on my iPad Air, however it still works fine on my wife's iPad 4.
The only difference I can find is that her iPad hasn't been updated to IOS 8.3, whereas my iPad Air has.
Is anybody else experiencing the same problem, or am I missing something?
I have done a full settings reset on my Air but that didn't resolve it. I get the blue bar at the top of the screen and my TV Screen flashes, but then no signal appears,
Any help would be most gratefully received.
Regards
Paul

Appstore Download Button Doesn't work

Hi everybody,
I Have iPhone 5. I'll update 6.02 to 6.1 on ota. I Have this appstore problem.
And yesterday I'll restore to 6.1. But continues to this problem .
"Download" and "Update" Button not work..
What can i do?

I think you posted four screen shots.
The first two look identical. The third shows the "Install App" button, which I guess you pushed and got the app installed.
Finally, the fourth and last shot, quite a few hours later, shows that the app was updated later that day by the developer, and offers you the opportunity to install the update by pressing the "Update" button.
So what is wrong? Everything looks fine to me.

My mini Ipad says I haven't backed it up to iCloud for 2 weeks. Back ups happen when this ipad is plugged in, locks, and connected to wifi. The ok button doesn't work, I can't open settings to make sure wifi is connected. Nothing works!!!

Ipad wont reboot & my sleep or lock button doesn't work??

I updated ios 7 on my ipad just yesterday. After a while I used it, then my ipad kept popping out shut down mode, and lock the screen randomly.
I tried to reboot it, my screen kept locking randomly. I tried to reboot it for three times, and for the third time, my ipad wouldn't boot up.
I connected my ipad to itunes and tried to restore my ipad.
The screen now has quitted to lock randomly. But I found out that my lock button doesn't work anymore. And the next thing I did was to reboot my ipad by pressing the sleep/lock and home button at the same time, hoping that my lock button would work again, and suddenly my ipad showed apple logo frequently without showing progress bar. And the last thing I do now is to connect my device to itunes, and it is now back on. But the lock/sleep button still not working. And I think that if I reboot my ipad again, it will give me the same problem as it wont reboot itself unless i connect it to itunes.
Please help me regarding this troubleshooting... My ipad was perfectly fine. Thanks in advance!

For the past month or so my lock button hasn't been working. It takes three or more tries to get it to work and sometimes I just can't even use it.
Looks like a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is required...
Be sure to make an appointment first...

You'll have to upgrade your operating system first.
Most, if not all, Cloud apps require at least OS X 10.7.

Upgraded to iOS7 on my iPad Mini and now the mute button doesn't work

I upgraded to iOS7 on my WiFi only iPad Mini and now the mute button doesn't work. It toggles between Ringer on and off and of course, there is no ringer on my WiFi iPad. Same thing happens in the control panel when I switch functions and try to mute the sound there. It used to toggle between Volume on and off. Anyone know how to fix this?

A pop-up message is frozen on my settings page. I was trying to set up an apple id for iTunes when I got a message "required fields have been left blank. The missing information is highlighted in red." the ok button doesn't work. 1st gen iPad.

A pop-up message is frozen on my settings page. I was trying to set up an apple id for iTunes when I got a message "required fields have been left blank. The missing information is highlighted in red." the ok button doesn't work. The message is now fixed & I cannot get rid of it. Ironically, when I found this forum I was able to set up an apple Id. Please advise how to get rid of the pop-up box. Thanks!

I'm having this same problem as well and cannot advance--very irritating. All of the information is filled out correctly and I've editted my AppleID information online separately as well to get around this issue, but no luck...

IOS 5.1 Update, Home Button Doesn't Work.

Ever since I installed the iOS 5.1 update on my iPhone 4, the home button does not work at all! I've tried every trouble shooting solution I could find. I've Restarted, I can't hard reset because the home button doesn't work, I've restored from back up, I've restored as new, I've vacuumed out and gently used a tooth brush in the port below the home button in attempt to remove any dust. I've tried opening a factory installed app such as Maps, Safari, Stocks etc and held the top button until the "Slide to power off" showed and then held down the home button until it went to home screen except it didn't go to the home screen at all the "slide to power off" disappeared after a while. I have extremely intermittent response with the Home Button. If i press it continuously it will work after 27 presses one time or 9 presses another but never when I try to do a hard reset and 9.999 times out of 10 it doesn't work. I am so frustrated! I didn't get it wet and it stopped working immediately after the software update. HELP!

I talked to Apple today and was told that it's a "hardware issue" and they will not fix it. I will have to pay 169.00 to have it repaired because it is no longer covered. He told me that "the software update triggered a hardware problem" and that they haven't heard of this issue before either and this was after he went and "spoke with a senior service advisor". The thing is that if THEIR software update triggered the "hardware problem" meaning that if I hadn't updated at all my phone would be in perfect working order right now then HOW IS THAT NOT A SOFTWARE ISSUE?! I am beyond livid. I cannot continue using my phone with assistive touch, NOTHING else works and I know this isn't the first time they've heard of it because how can so many people be having this problem and Apple NOT be aware of it?! My family has bought three MacBooks, three MacBook Pros, one iPad, two iPad 2s, seven iPhone 3s, one iPhone 3GS, five iPhone 4s, two iPhone 4S, four Apple TVs, one Time Capsule and COUNTLESS versions of iPods and have never had an issue having any of them repaired and only four of those products had to be and it was a fast and hassle free...then again they all were covered still at the time of repair...
How do you restore to a previous firmware? I don't want a new phone...I want MY phone to work...the one that worked perfectly before their update....this is beyond ridiculous...I wish apple would take a look at their own support communities and see that this ISN'T our problem...it's a problem created by THEM.

Safari copy url button doesn't work

I just upgraded from an ipad2 to an iPad air 2. Before, if I wanted to copy and paste a url I'd use the copy button. Now,on the new iPad air 2, the copy button just wipes out whatever I've previously copied, and doesn't copy the url.

You tap and hold down in the URL field until you get the option to select all. Then you choose the option to select all. An option to Copy appears and you select that and then you should be able to paste that URL into a text field.
Safari copy url button doesn't work
I Realize that you must know the steps but I am just double checking. If that is not working for you, and you are not having copy and paste issues elsewhere in other apps, I would try clearing Safari, force close it and then reset your iPad.
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History and Website Data
Now force close Safari. In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Next, reset 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
