Can't update apps on iPhone 4

When I press on the icon updates, on bottom right, my iPhone's screen turns white and no update is made. I can upload apps.

When you go out of the appstore and go to the two apps that you are trying to update, are they showing grayed and the word waiting below them?

  • I can't update apps on iPhone because of an old Apple ID.

    I have a new apple Id and no longer have access
    to my old one and I can't update apps on my iPhone because
    the old apple ID pops up. I've added the new ID to my
    Phone settings but it keeps popping up when I'm in
    the apps store. Any ideas?

    First, you are digging up a thread that has been dead for almost a year. So you have no idea what the context of the ASC was at that time and what folks were posting over and over here.
    Secondly if you spend just a little time on the ASC you will quickly learn that folks make random Apple ID accounts all of the time.
    As far as the exact situation which you mention, you can change the primary email account associated with an Apple ID, without changing the ID, which is why I have an @mac.com Apple ID that uses an @gmail.com email address. And it was for the very reason you mention, I got the @mac.com account (accounts which pre-date @me.com by a number of years) for a free trial, but didn't feel that I wanted to pay $100 a year to use it after the trial period ended, but I had used the account during the trial to acquire a lot of Apple content that I did not wish to loose.

  • Can not update apps on iPhone or iTunes

    I updated my iPhone 3GS to iOS 4.3.3 yesterday and I now can't update any apps via my phone or iTunes.
    On my phone I get the error "Cannot connect to iTunes Store"
    On iTunes I get "We're sorry, we cannot complete your request on the iTunes Store at this time. Please try again later"
    Any ideas on how I can fix it.......Many Thanks in advance for any help

    Well I finally got the apps updated. How? I deleted them from the iPhone and then in iTunes the app became unchecked. I checked the app and then it was installed on the iPhone. The only problem was that any data associated with those apps was lost. With the games it was just the high scores, but with apps like Splash ID and Fuel Gauge it was all my passwords and a years worth of fuel fill-up data. I tried a restore of all that data using the backup, but what happened there was that when the iPhone restored the back-up it also restored the out dated app as well. Therefore the only thing I could do is re-enter al the data that was lost all over again. At least with Splash ID that was a sync with the desktop application. With Fuel Gauge it's a matter of going back and re-entering everything again. I hope this doesn't happen everytime I need to update a program.

    I can't update any apps on iPhone 5. How can I fix this?

    Your post somehow found its way to a little-viewed forum for Apple hardware made before 1998. I have asked the Hosts to move you to a more active and appropriate forum for your product.

  • I can't update apps because iphone 5 is asking for the password to a different itunes account

    In my settings under iTunes and App Store I am signed in with my iTunes account.
    However, when I go to update apps it asks me for the password to a different iTunes account - that of my partner who also uses my iMac.
    I've tried signing out and signing back in via Settings but it's still asking for my partner's password instead of mine.
    What should I do?

    the apps were orignially download with the old ID and are linked forever to that old ID.  You need ot delete the apps and if you want them you need to download with your currrent ID

    Apps are permanently tied to the Apple ID used to purchase them. You will have to delete the apps from the phone and re-purchase them using your Apple ID.

    I had the same problem today and was able to resolve it without having to do a restore or reset. The problem had something to do with my mail accounts. The upgrade reset my mail settings, switching both my gmail and my .mac mail to "archive all mail". I went into the General Settings, disabled that setting, and resynced the phone. The "other" storage allottment dropped back down to less than a gig.
    Before you restore or reset, I would try that first.

  • I am trying to change my apple id Country. but it says " you have a store credit balance, you must spend your balance before you can change it." i don't wanna use it to change my country. by the way i can't update any of iPhone apps. need help

    I am trying to change my apple id Country. but it says " you have a store credit balance, you must spend your balance before you can change it." i don't wanna spend it to change my country. by the way i can't update any of iPhone apps. need help

    It's strange because I can change my AppleID country without this message.
    So what to do? Just try to do this again, but on another device. You may also erase cookies and history of your browser.
    I hope it will be helpful, good luck!

  • Can not update apps after IOS8 update on iPhone 4s

    Can not update apps after IOS8 update on iPhone 4s
    I can no longer update apps on my iPhone 4s after the IOS 8 update. The IOS 8 update took a very long time to complete, maybe 12 hours, and afterwards, it worked but updating packages were very slow. Package updates have since been problematic and about 4 days ago, it stopped being able to update any packages. I click on them to update and they never make any progress. I have 2.8 Gbytes free and I keep deleting more and more packages, pictures, etc. It seems like, from the amount of stuff that I have deleted, I should have more than 2.8 Gbytes free.
    Is anyone else having this kind of problem?

    16GB iPhone4: Go to Settings, scroll down to iTunes & App Stores and touch. At the top of the next page it shows: Apple ID. Touch this. Select Sign Out. Your Apple ID will go away. Re-enter Apple ID and password. Try App Store again.
       Other solutions were to go to Settings:General:Date&Time and turn off auto-update, then change date to next year. This didn't work for me, nor a lot of other users on the forums. It took reading a lot of threads to find the log-out, log-in solution. Even on the official Apple Website all I saw was: Make sure your connection is working, battery is charged, desktop is plugged in when you try to sync. OK I exaggerate, but with all the users posting this problem, you'd think they'd post their solutions when they work with a Tech Help call.

  • Trying to update apps on iphone and getting error message, there is not enough available local storage to download these items. you can manage your local device storage usage in settings

    trying to update apps on iphone and getting error message, there is not enough available local storage to download these items. you can manage your local device storage usage in settings. What am I to do?

    The storage you purchased is in the cloud, and doesn't do anything with your pad.  Your problem is simply that you have too much content on your pad.   Go to settings, general, usage, and it will show you how much space you have avaliable on your pad.  If you let the screen sit for a while, all the apps will be displayed, and you can see how much stuff you have associated with each.
    You have to no option but to delete some of the content on your pad.  Videos, comics, pitcures and some music files use a lot of space.   The cloud allows you to leave stuff there, so you can get it when you need it.

  • I cannot install apps on iphone 3gs. It shows that app is installing after entering password and then it quits.  I can still update apps

    After I enter my password, it shows that it is installing app then it goes back to the install app screen.  I can still update apps though.  I updated my software to iOS 6.1.3 and that did not help.  I do not receive any error messages.

    Did you find a solution for this? I have a user at work with this exact issue but on their iPhone 4S.
    Thanks
