Can't update or download apps

This has been a problem for me for quite some time. I can't download or update any apps from the AppStore. I though that downloading iOS 7.0.6 would do the trick but I still can't download or update any apps.

Do you have a valid credit card linked to your Apple ID?
Have you tried downloading apps using computer iTunes?

    You must contact iTunes support to get the problem resolved.

    If there is a problem with your account or payment info, you cannot
    download anything (including free apps or updates) until the matter
    is resolved.
    In countries where the iTunes Store only sells apps, the accepted payment methods are Visa, MasterCard, and American Express. Other payment types such as gift cards, store credit, monthly allowances, ClickandBuy, and PayPal are not accepted. Depending on your App Store country, prices may be listed in your local currency, US Dollars, or Euros.    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5552

  • Can't update or download apps; can't download music

    iOS 8.0.2 (but problem started after updating to iOS 8) - iPhone 6 128g
    I can't update or download apps. When i try, I get the red circle with the red square in the middle- no activity, and when I tap on it it instantly reverts to the cloud/arrow symbol. I also can't download tunes- all of my iTunes match songs appear and I can stream them- but when i try to download to my iPhone- same thing: red circle with square in the middle, no activity, if I tap again, reverts to cloud symbol.
    I have turned off and on, reset network, reset device (but haven't restored to factory settings, trying to avoid that), i have signed in and out of iTunes countless times, i have chatted with support and have been on the phone with support (another call scheduled tomorrow) but no luck at all. Very frustrating- i've never experienced this with Apple before. Anyone have any suggestions? On, another thing. I have an iPad mini that i updated to iOS 8 and it works fine. I can download and update apps, and can download tunes from iTunes Match. Awesome, right? Very confused.

    Connect your device to ITunes on a Pc or Mac and sync that way.

  • Can't update or download apps anymore after updating to ios8

    i don't know what to do, since updating to iOS 8 I can't update or download apps ,does anyone here know a solution to this? Please help thanks

    I have a very simple web page that uploads pictures (.jpg or .gif) and when I updated my iPAD to IOS8 this morning the web page times out for any upload.
    My web Page uses a very old HTML form like this :
    This html form works on all the following browsers, but not Safari on the new IOS8 on my iPAD
    Google Chrome Version 37.0.2062.120 m
    FireFox 30.0 & 32.0.2
    Internet Explorer Version 11.0.9600.16428IC
    Safari Revision 5.1.7 (7534.57.2)
    iPAD IOS8 Browser has a very serious bug that needs fixed.
    The only way I found to put in a ticket on this is through apple.com/feedback, which I did.

  • I can't update or download apps in iTunes

    I can't update or download apps in iTunes
    Please help

    Do you mind taking a screenshot and pasting it here? Go to the app store to the page of an application that looks messed up (install button not showing, no description, etc). Hit the lock and home buttons on your phone (the circle one and the one on top) at the same time, just click them down together once. Your screen should flash and you will have a picture of that screen in your photos. Can you post one here? If you need help posting a picture on these forums let me know and I will guide you through.

  • I can't update the downloaded app while can install the new other app

    I can't update the downloaded app while my id and password is correct. When I complete the password, it seems updating app but nothing change and it takes only shot time. But I can do the same for install other new app from iTunes with no problem. So now my phone has lots of unupdated app.
    Before this problem occur, my appleID has a problem. It can't sign in although I fill the correct password. It bring me to answer security question but it's wrong. So I choose to unlock my Apple ID by reset password via reserved email. It can complete the process but seems to be I create the new Apple ID although that ID is same as the previous one. After that I can't update app anymore.
    Could anyone help me on this? Thanks in advance.

    If you're a school, Apple has a trade-in program for educational institutions you could look into to upgrade to newer iPods:
    http://www.apple.com/education/docs/Apple-Trade-InProgram.pdf
    Otherwise there's nothing Apple could tell you other than sell the iPods or find a reseller willing to accept them on trade. A first-generation iPod touch will not run any version of iOS later than 3.1.3, and a second generation iPod touch nothing later than 4.2.1. There are still apps that run on those versions, but they're getting fewer and fewer. Getting newer iPods is going to be your only avenue to being able to run more current apps. And if you do, I'd advise expecting only a two-year lifespan out of them, at least as far as keeping up with the latest version of iOS and apps is concerned.
    Regards.

  • Can't update or download apps iOS 8.1.2

    I've been trying to update and download apps for a while now and it simply can't. I've tried to stop the download and start it again but it cannot download. The only thing that happens is that the app become unavailable and it either waits (the blue spinning circle) or the download image (circle with a square) appears. But there's no progress whatsoever.
    I have an iPhone 5s and I'm running on iOS 8.1.2, before I updated it worked perfectly, so is it an iOS problem? Or what should I do?

    The solution was staring me in the face:

  • Can't Update or Download Apps PLEASE HELP!!!

    I recently got a macbook pro and ever since I got it I couldn't download or update any apps. When I click download or update it downloads the app into a folder called downloads, which is inside iTunes Media in a .tmp folder, but the app does not go into my library and I can't drag it into my library because there is a .tmp folder and it it there is a file called info.plist and another file called download but when I click on it I get an error that says You can't open the application download because the Classic environment is no longer supported. I created a test account and a guest account and it worked so there is something wrong with my user profile. Can someone help me?

  • How do I delete and Apple ID ? I had a friend transfer all my stuff from his computer and I go to update or download apps his ID pops up and asks for his password instead of mine! Ugh so frustrated right now

    How do I delete and Apple ID ? I had a friend transfer all my stuff from one phone to another using his computer.  I can't  update or download apps, his ID pops up and asks for his password instead of mine! Ugh so frustrated right now!

    You can't delete an Apple ID. Furthermore, everything you transferred is tied permanently to your friend's Apple ID. You do not legally own that software. If you want that software for yourself, then you need to purchase it using your Apple ID.

  • I have an apple ID, I'm trying to use this to update and download apps etc. however, whenever I try this, it keeps asking me to use my old ID, which is attached to an email that no longer exists! I can't download or update anything! Help!

    I have an apple ID, I'm trying to use this to update and download apps etc. however, whenever I try this, it keeps asking me to use my old ID, which is attached to an email that no longer exists! I can't download or update anything! Help!

    You can log out of the currently logged in account by taping on the id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and you can then log back in.
    If you updated your existing account with a new email address then that shoud 'refresh' it on it
    If you created a new account then any content that you purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can redownload its content and download updates to its apps. You should be able to update an account's email address via this page : http://appleid.apple.com

  • I can't update my apps, but I can download news. How can I update normally my apps?

    I can't update my apps, but I can download news. How can I update normally my apps? Thanks!

    Hi Dnasc,
    I have two more suggestions:
    1. Reset your iPad - hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same and continue to hold them down until you see the Sliver Apple (ignore the red slider). You will not lose any data. I know this sounds like it might not do anything, but this afternoon I deleted and re-added my iCloud account on my iPad (experimenting so I could answer another question), and it really messed up my Photostream. Did the reset, and everything in the photostream reloaded successfully without any further problems. A reset can do wonders to help "clear your iPad's mind"....
    2. Go into iTunes and update the Apps on your computer, then hook up your iPad and sync....
    I hope one of these works for you!
    Cheers,
    GB
