Cannot download any games on my iPad 2

I cant view any games on my iPad in the AppStore. I live in South Africa, but we do have an Apple store here... Any idea about what may be wrong?? There are a bunch of categories but no games... It's brand new. When I find games on the Internet, in choose download, it goes the the AppStore but then says "request could not be completed". I have no clue what to do. I'm able to download apps.

The content is probably restricted by the government in South Africa. Not all iTunes content is available world wide. If the government restricts the content, Apple cannot offer it. That is probably why you do not have the option to download games - I assume anyway.

    OK. Are we supposed to just start guessing? How about providing some details and give us a starting point. What happens when you try?

  • TS1398 I cannot download any games. It says it cannot to the iTunes store.

    I have downloaded games before but now it says that the device cannot connect to the iTunes store. However, I am able to open the iTunes store, so I really don't understand why it's not connecting. I have also tried turning the WIFI off then back on and nothing.

    You can look here for help.
    Can't connect to the iTunes Store
    I'm not sure how useful this link really is frankly, because I've never had a response that any of the steps worked for anybody in the past. It is really basic stuff, restart your device, reboot your router, make sure that you are connected to the internet ...
    I get the message every once in a great while and it always goes away and I can ultimately connect. Aside from the basic things that the link covers you can try this.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try again.
    You can also try to download by using another WiFi hotspot/network to confirm that the problem might be with the way iTunes is trying to connect to your home network.

    Try This...
    Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...

    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

    If no joy...
    Reset all settings
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings.
    This will return all iDevice settings to factory defaults... you will not lose any data.... But you will have to re-enter all of the device settings.

    Your iPad is physically out of storage space. Purchasing space in iCloud dosen't magically give your actual iPad more physical  storage space.
    You need to delete content off of your iPad.

  • Dear Friends...... I have an ipad 2 32gb with wifi and 3g enabled sim..... i bought it second hand .... and now if am going to download any games it is showing me an email id and asking for its password... please guide me how can i change this setting

    Dear Friends...... I have an ipad 2 32gb with wifi and 3g enabled sim..... i bought it second hand .... and now if am going to download any games it is showing me an email id and asking for its password... please guide me how can i change this setting to my email id and password

    Tap on the id in Settings > Store and log out of it and then login with your id. Any content already on the iPad will be tied to the previous owner's id and it can't be copied or transferred to your id - so it's probably best to do restore the iPad back to factory defaults and start as from new with it : Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Contents And Settings

  • HT201304 I cannot download any apps for my iPhone . I once purchased a game on a prepaid Visa card , wich has no money on this car,. I do not wan to purchase anything I just want to download free apps

    I cannot download any apps , including free apps. I did purchase a game about a month ago using a prepaid card. That card I no longer use. The App Store declined the card. I just want to download free apps without te App Store wanting my credit card information . Help!!

    i don't think you can use prepaid cards that aren't itunes gift cards for purchases in itunes anymore. if you don't see the option 'none' under payment options, then you need to add a card to the apple id. once you add it, you should then see the 'none' option and can choose not to use that as your payment method under settings > itunes and app stores > tap on your apple id and choose 'view apple id' > payment options

  • HT4436 Why i cannot download any apps on my app store on my ipad?

    Why i cannot download any apps on my app store on my ipad?

    Have you tried updating the apps via iTunes on the computer?
    If so, do they update?
    Are you able to then sync those updated apps to the device from iTunes?
    Were the apps possible acquired with a different Apple ID?

  • After downloading ios7 I cannot open any games

    After downloading ios7 I cannot open any games. Help!

    You may want to take a look at the restrictions section. Go to the settings app and pick general, restrictions. If that doesn't work
    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
     Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple. 
    Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

  • HT5457 cannot download IOS 6 on my ipad 2. Why?

    cannot download IOS 6 on my ipad 2. Why?

    What happens when you try ? If you mean that the Settings > General > Software Update option isn't shown then that only appears when you have iOS 5+ installed, if you have iOS 4 as your tagline suggest then you will need to do the update via your computer's iTunes.
    Connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases. You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
    Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button
    Updating to iOS 5+ : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
    Your iPad will be updated to iOS 6.0.1 (which is the only version that is 'signed' by Apple), so you will lose the built-in YouTube app and the Maps app will change.

  • I cannot download any app from my iPhone 5.

    I cannot download any app from my iPhone 5 and only from my iPhone because when I purchase from my iPad or my Mac it works right, and always shows up this message "Could not be purchased at this time. Please try again later", it appears no matter if I download a paid app or free app, it always appears.

    As of 5 minutes ago I could not update any apps. It says "cannot download app". I tried using itunes on my PC to download or update and also received errors. Says the file appears corrupt or something.
    Apple's sytem status page http://www.apple.com/support/systemstatus/ shows nothing.
    What is going on?

  • I cannot hear any sound from my ipad

    I cannot hear any sound in my ipad, no music no vedios and even the keys sound!!!! I need to know what is the solution???

    1. If you have no sound at all, even in the Music App, try rebooting the iPad.
    Reboot 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.
    2. Reset all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings. No data will be lost but you will have to enter all of the device settings again.
    3. If you lost sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the control center. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to get to control center . Tap on the bell icon and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock can be accessed in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
    4. If you still have no sound at all - try cleaning the dock connector opening of the iPad with a soft brush and just a little bit of rubbing alcohol.
