Can't detect app updates

Since my laptop had Windows updates 2 days ago, iTunes will no longer detect app updates. Can I correct this?

I don't believe this is to do with the windows update as I ran that on Tuesday evening and my app updates stopped showing late on Friday evening (all UK time).
It's a widespread problem (not sure if it is affecting Apple users) and definitely affecting windows users (I have machines with 7, 8 and 8.1 and none show updates).

HT5622 I have verified my Apple ID several times on my Iphone but a can not install APP updates? The same Apple ID works fine on my Ipad for updates etc.???

I have verified my Apple ID several times on my Iphone but can not install APP updates. Everything work fine on my Ipad using same AppleID ect.?

Sign out and back into your apple id from Settings>iTunes and App stores>(Your apple ID)>Sign Out and then sign in again with the new address. Close app store from running in the background (or restart the phone if your unsure how to do this). If when trying to update any apps they are still asking for the old apple ID, delete and re-install those apps.

Why my iPad can't open app update (I open I see White scene)

Why my iPad can't open app update (can open App Store and I go to update I see White scene)

It seems Apple is having some issues at their end. There have been hundreds of posts on the forum with the same problem.

Can't install App updates

I'm using an iPhone 3G which has been upgraded to 3.0 today. I'm attempting to update the apps I have, but it isn't working. Here's a play-by-play:
I go to "Updates". I press "update all apps". It takes me to the home screen where the apps appear to begin installing. Then a window pops up saying:
"iTunes Terms & Conditions
have changed.
"Before you can proceed you must
read & accept the new Terms &
Conditions"
I press "OK". It brings up the white page with "loading" on it, but at the same time, it pops up a window identical to the last one. If I press "OK", the white page disappears and reappears, with the same pop-up reappearing. If I press "Cancel", it takes me to the Terms & Conditions. I attempt to tap "Agree", followed by a pop-up that reads, "You must accept terms & conditions to continue." I press OK, and it reads, "Thank you. Please try your purchases again." So I try pressing "update all apps" like I did in the first place, and everything that just happened happens all over again. It's a strange loophole that I can't outsmart. When I try emailing the terms & conditions, it just doesn't work. It sends the email, but I can't actually agree to the Terms & Conditions. I tried agreeing to them on iTunes, but they never came up. It leads me to believe that I already agreed to them but my iPhone "forgot" that I did.
Please help!

Hello,
I'm having the same problem with App updates on my iPhone - have accepted the T&C about 30 times, even with individual updates only, but I still can't download any updates.
I tried via my computer as well, but something is weird : next to "Applications" in iTunes, it says 6 updates (same as on the App Store icon on my iPhone). So far so good.
But when I click on "Updates Available" to download them via iTunes, I get to the My Applications page and it says "No updates available - check again later". It's as if I didn't have the same status on my phone and the computer, although I have "Sync all Apps" checked in the Applications tab in iTunes?
So no can do via the computer or the phone...
Anyone have an idea what might be wrong?
Thanks in advance!

Can't load apps updates

Hello all, after updating to version 10.5.0.142, iTunes doesn't load apps updates anymore.
When I attempt to do it, receive back a screen message saying that there are no updates available ......! but I know there are updates because if I do it from the iPad or iPhone it works fine. Anybody experienced this trouble?

Can't offer a solution but see my posting on apps updates on my Iphone and iPad hanging.
All a **** mess and I blame the latest IOS 5 update. The first one certainly made a mess of my stuff.

Can't submit app update at last step

Trying to submit an app update to one of our existing apps. Build is uploaded, all is fine... until I get to the last page where it asks about third party content and IDFA rights. I check everything appropriately, but the "Submit" button stays greyed out. No idea why this is happening. It's like the website is not reacting to my input. Tried this on different browser too, same issue.
Anybody seeing this happen?

Actually I got past that part already. Uploaded a pre-release buid, waited for it to get processed, added it, saved then clicked on "Submit for Review".
The screen I'm stuck on is the one they ask about 3rd Pary Content Rights and Advertising Identifier. The "Submit" button is generally greyed out until you've answered all the questions, but even after I've done so, it stays greyed out. One thing I've noticed is that the page seems to be missing a question. It used to also ask me about Encryption... but that question is no longer there. Is it just the webpage rendering wrong on me so that I can't see/click the first question?

How can I get App Updates in Notification Center?

Hello,
I am trying to get notified about App Updates from the notification Center. The App Store icon is not listed when I go to "Notifications" in System Preferences. I did see one article about it stating that if I disabled Spotlight in the "Startup .....(I cannot remember the word I saw in the article)" then they will not show in the Notification center. Can anyone help? Thank you.

Try resetting the App Store.

How can I remove app updates in iTunes?

I have an old Iphone 3G, version 4.2.1
Playing in iTunes, I have downloaded some updates i didn't needed, synced, and now, my updated apps are not compatible anymore with my iOs.
(apps like Facebook, Whatsapp, both purchased or freeware)
So, my question is: how can I remove the updates that made some apps not compatible anymore with my software?
Also, is there any possibility to transfer my iPhone contacts to my sim card?
Many thanks in advance!
Andra

"how can I remove the updates that made some apps not compatible anymore with my software?"
You cannot
"Also, is there any possibility to transfer my iPhone contacts to my sim card?"
No. Iphone stores nothing to SIM. You should be syncing contacts to your computer.

How can I see app updates in iOS 6

Ever since a few months ago, I have been having issues with my iOS 6 iPhone. Updating it is not an option, as it is a company device. The numeral badge appears on the App Store icon from the home screen, and from any screen inside the App Store but the update tab. When I click that tab, the 15 pending updates (and the badge) disappears. It shows all apps as being up to date, even though I know they're not.
I'd have no problem updating each app by searching, but such is hard when the list will not display. Many apps have broken through the update cycle, and I am unable to see which ones to update. Given my 40+ apps, removing all and updating on the computer isn't a viable option either
Whats's the problem?

Close all apps in the back ground. Hold the power button untill the 'slide to power-off' appears. Now let go of the power button and press the home button untill the screen dissapears and warps you back to the home screen. Now, the cache is cleared.
You can also do this 'per-app'.
Enjoy...
P.S.: This works for ALL iPhone OS AND iOS devices, even for the original iPhone.

How can I unfreeze app updates?

How can I update frozen app updates

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.

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.

Can I download apps/updates using someone else's computer & ISP?

My friend was lamenting that she can't purchase certain apps because they are too big for her ISP e.g. Audubon is 1GB in size which would take days to download (wouldn't work, would get interrupted) and in any case would exceed the download allowance.
So my thought was "we have that app, she can buy it and abort the download of it and then I can just copy the .ipa to her computer and Install". But this doesn't work: apparently the .ipa itself is tagged with our purchase information and can't be used by anyone else, despite that they've purchased it too. Izzat right?
Assuming it's the case that downloads can't be re-used in any way, just how does someone with an inadequate ISP download large apps? Could I, for example, log-on to our iTunes with this other person's Apple Store ID, then download the app using my ISP; she's bought-but-aborted and then copy that download into her "iTunes Media/Mobile Applications" for her to install to her iGizmo?
Is there any better way to do this?

I doubt bandwidth is a concern at their end of the pipe. You can use a single copy, provided one of you is prepared to authorize the other's computer for protected purchases. However having apps from more than one account on any computer or device means that to update the apps you have to sign out of one account and into the other each time there is an update on the "wrong" account. To do so on a regular basis would mean sharing password details with the other party which ought not to be advised.

Thanks, I think this is finally sinking-in with me, helping me also to understand how this friend has an app from her husband's AppleID and computer on HER computer--they must have authorized his ID on her computer (they said they spent hours on the phone with Apple support to get the app onto her iGizmo, without being able to tell me how it got resolved).
What you're saying is that I should be able to "give" this friend the 1GB file I've downloaded, by logging-on to iTunes using my AppleID, and then Authorizing the computer for use (which decrements one of my 5 allowable computers).
But then it would work only once, and the next time the app needs to be updated she'd have to log-off and log-on as me and then do the update. Actually I think this might work, since these friends are pushing "elderly" and struggle to use their PCs and new iPhones, i.e. when they need to be updated they tend to call me anyway. I'd go over there, copy the dl'ed update to their PC, log-off and back-on as me, update her iPhone, and return the PC to her AppleID.
If my post indicates a misunderstanding on my part in any way, please let me know. Thanks again tt2 and JE.

HT201270 I changed my apple id online but my old user name continues to show up when I attempt to do updates. How can I change my ID on my iphone so I can do the app. updates

My old apple ID is still on my iphone when I attempt to do updates. How can I change the apple ID on my phone I keep on getting the error message " your apple id or password is incorrect., but I don't know how to change the id??

Just call apple and explain the situation. Just ask the automated voice person to speak with a real person and it will actually transfer you. Apple will fix it. And I personally believe apple has the best customer support in the world. ***UPDATE Disregard that. Just delete the account from your phone and sign back in with your current one. and it should be fine. if that does not work try what i first suggested.
