Appstore won't show app updates

After my iphone5 updateed to IOS 6.0.2, my iphone won't show any app updates anymore. If I go to the appstore app on my iphone, I tap updates, it tells me "All apps are up to date". But if I search the apps one by one, it shows "updates"... connection to appstore is not a problem.
Anybody has the same issue here?

Hi Frustratedannon!
I completely understand your frustration regarding these issues. Allow me to suggest a couple of things that may help lessen your frustration and resolve some issues. First, you should look to see if you have Automatic Downloads activated on your iPad (it could explain why the Simpsons game would have showed up on your iPad out of the blue):
iTunes Store: How to enable Automatic Downloads

In order to actually get rid of the Simpsons app or finish downloading it, you may need to try turning off your iPad, then turning it back on. You also may need to try a reset, which is a simple power cycle procedure that does not affect your data on your iPad. Both of these steps are explained in the following article:
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset

Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

Itunes shows app updates badge but no updates are available

My iPhone 5's itunes shows app updates badge but no updates are available

I started having the exact same issue as of last night. Tried everything I could think of but nothing worked. Have opened a support case with Apple.
I suspect there may be a problem on Apple's end with their App Store update server.
Stay tuned.

Why won't my apps update - I have 7 updates waiting to go and when you click on any of the apps, they say installing but have never finished?

Why won't my apps update on my ipad? I have 7 updates waiting to go and when I click on them they all say they are installing but they have never completed their installation? Please help

Try resetting ...
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings.
You won't lose any data as a result of a reset.

Why won't my apps update?

I don't have wi-fi, but I thought that connecting to a computer via a usb cord, I'd still be able to get my apps to function and/or update, but they don't. I can't figure out what the difference between a wi-fi connection and a direct connection is that won't allow the transfer of information. Can anyone explain this to me?

You can get updates to Apps via iTunes on your computer. Start iTunes and click on "Apps" In the "Library" section on the left panel of the screen. There will be a notification of "Updates Available" at the bottom right of the screen. If you click on this you will see which App updates are available and select which to download. When you next connect your iPod these updates will be transferred to it.

Why won't my apps update now that I have updated to iOS 7? The are stuck in "waiting." And how do I fix it?

I updated to the iOS 7 and now several apps, iBooks included, won't finish the update. I can't delete and re-download because they are stuck in "waiting." Also, I can't seem to reload apps sent to cloud back to my phone.
Storage isn't the issue because I have checked that. Or at least in the surface it doesn't appear to be. Any other trouble shooting ideas are appreciated.

I found that what worked to correct this issue on my iPhone 4S was to turn off automatic app updates. I went to Settings - iTunes & App Store - and under Automatic Downloads, switched Updates to off. My apps that were stuck in 'Waiting' immediately began downloading.
Although I would like to be able to use the automatic update feature, at least I found a fix to the 'waiting' issue for now.

Ipad shows APP updates

My ipad shows updates, however they will not download to my iPad. Everything else seems to be working fine. Any suggestions on a fix?

If you are getting the blank app update screen, many people are having this problem over the last couple of days.
According to Fly150 in another discussion, this will work.
If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
1. Go to App Store
2. Select Purchased
3. Select All
4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
5. Select update on the Apps
This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store. Apple needs to fix this. It is a workaround only until then.

IPod touch 3rd Gen won't finish app updates or movie download.

App updates would get stuck and stop downloading, so after trying different things I have restored to factory 5.01 without restoring any apps or data. That didn't work. App downloads hang, App updates hang. Movie downloads then after processing and seemingly finished stops with with "Unable to download now could not be downloaded this time"
I have tried external power and without, on, locked and always unlocked. Nothing works. I have managed to get one app download in about 30 trys and zero movies.
Please don't say something lame like "you can connect it to your itunes and download them there and synch" What is the point of that?
I do this exact same stuff on the same network, same account, same wifi, with two ipads, two iphone 4's, and a 4th gen touch. This device has always had update isues especially more than 2 or 3 apps.
Since all my other devices work, it seems this ipod touch may have had a problem since the get-go. But, it still could be something like the way it this exact device is handled on my account at Apple or something.
What can I do?

IPhine 5s won't download app updates

IPhone 5s 7.1.2 can't download app updates today. I have 1.9g available space and Apple support says the apps store is working. I'm at home on my wifi router and I can download updates on my iPad.
I keep getting the popup message that the app cannot be downloaded at this time.
aany ideas would be appreciated!
Thanks, Kevin

Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

TS3408 I have created a web site using iWeb. It has been running fine. I have made some changes to the site and it won't show the updates in Safari, but does show the changes in Firefox

I have created a website using iWeb. It has been running fine, with no problems at all.
I have recently made some changes and the updates don't show in Safari, but when I open Firefox, the changes are there. It doesn't show the updates in Chrome on my iphone either? Any suggestions?

You can also reload web page(s) and bypass the cache.
*Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
*Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
*Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)

Hello Briana,
If you are stuck with trying to get the apps to update, check out the troubleshooting steps in the following article. I would also try and power off the iPod Touch and turn it back on.

ITunes not showing app updates from iPhone

I did some searches and found some people that have had similar, but not exactly the same problem.
My iPhone 3GS shows that I have four apps that need updating. I don't like to use my data plan for updates if I don't have to, so I prefer to update via iTunes. The Problem is that when I go to iTunes, it does not show that these updates are available.
Phone Software Version 4.3.3
iTunes Version 10.3.1.55
All the apps that have updates (according to the iPhone) are set to sync when connected to iTunes, but syncing them does not get the updates to show up in iTunes.
If i go to the iTunes store through iTunes to try and re-download them, it already says "downloaded" and so I can't re-download them to get the newer version.
If anyone knows where I can find the answer to this, please provide a link. I'm don't mind reading...I just had no success when I was searching myself.

I have exactly the same problem. I think it started some time ago (perhaps a couple of month). Prior to that, I'll go to iTunes and get the apps again. Now it says 'downloaded' but WHERE??????

Why won't my apps update. Tried five times already.

II've tried five times to update my apps but they won't no matter what I do.

have you tried to restart? Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
have you tried to download the updates on your computers iTunes and then sync it with the phone ?

My iPad is showing app updates but will not load. What's up?

My iPad is showing updates available but none will load. I've even gone through each app but can't find any. Anyone know what's going on.

Happening to many users, me too - I suspect a server problem. Wait a day or use itunes to update, I was able to do that.
