Cannot download apps from App Store to iPhone 4S

In the App Store, the app downloads and says open.  Nothing happens.  There is no icon on the phon

Have you taken your phone to an Apple Store? They can run a bunch of tests on your phone.
I would try a Hard Reset (Hold the home and power button). Phone should turn off then turn back on, on its own.
Try resetting all settings and erasing all content and settings. If that doesn't would you need to do a FULL restore. Do not restore from backup.

  • Cannot download book from ibooks store on iphone

    I appear to be having a problem downloading any book within ibooks on my iphone 3g running ios4.
    In one case, I have already purchased the book from my ipad and trying to redownload the book on my iphone I continue to get an message
    "Sign in required, tap continue to sign in to continue synching your bookmarks with other devices"
    I enter my credentials but the popup continues to appear over and over again at which point I instead hit cancel.
    The book now appears to have fully downloaded but it stays 'stuck' with the progress bar filled but I do not have the ability to open the book and the progress indicator continues to spin.
    This happens for both 'paid' books and 'free' books.
    I tried to download the book again this time with the 'sync bookmarks' feature disabled within system preferences and the same problem happens. The book downloads with a full progress bar, but it never saves.
    I tried:
    - disabled sync feature
    - rebooting phone
    - deleting and re-installing iBooks
    Thoughts? Thanks!

    Dears, the case is sorted now, and I am sharing the YouTube link which helped me to sort this issue, to help others.

    it was simple due to not setting the date and time automatically in : Settings-General-Date and Time, then set automatically.

  • Asked to put security questions and answers. Click "Done" and it does not lead me anywhere. Now cannot download anything from iTunes Store.

    Asked to put security questions and answers. Click "Done" and it does not lead me anywhere. Now cannot download anything from iTunes Store.
    Anyone has been having this problem?

    I have the same issue, bteween France and The Netherlands. No solution found yet.
    Worse even. My credit card is not from The Netherlands, and the dutch store does not accept a creditcard from outside NL. So i used my french card to buy one app using France has my home country. Luckily the app's language remained English, but now the french store seems to be offering me frech versions of existing (free) apps which i dont want. So i cant use the updates.
    i cant change the country back to Neterlands, without using a credit card. I can make a new ID, but the old one remains stuck with the french store, pffff It seems the only solution is to create a new ID via a "purchase" of a free app, but the older free apps all may need to be reinstalled that way.
    Typical Apple ..... ? ! !
    I may regret having purchased this ipad.....

  • Cannot download apps on my Iphone

    I cannot download apps or updates. My Iphone 4 says it cannot connect to Itunes. Help!

    Hi Vlokeefe,
    I'm sorry you are having some trouble connecting to the iTunes Store with your iPhone.
    The steps below should help you troubleshoot this:
    Can't connect to the iTunes Store
    Troubleshooting on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
    Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking on Check for Update in your device's Summary page in iTunes.
    Check and verify that you are in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you are on a 3G capable device, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular
    Check to make sure you have an active internet connection. You can check the User Guide for your device for help with connecting to the internet. 
    Check to make sure other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the internet.
    Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router
    If the issue still persists see, iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections or
    iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections.
    I hope this information helps ....

  • Cannot download app into the iPhone but the same app can be downloaded into iPad

    I have downloaded google search app into my iPad but i cannot download to my iphone.  At the AppStore I can see google search app but it does not allow me to download it, i.e the download icon is grey.
    Have removed the app from iTune library.

    Try rebooting the phone:
    Rebooting your iDevice
    Hold down the Sleep (On-Off) and Home buttons together for about 10-15 seconds or until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears - then let go of the buttons. The iPad should begin to start up.
    If that doesn't work then Restore it: Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings.

  • Cannot download photos from original 1st gen iphone

    An aunt passed on her old 1st gen iphone (16GB) to my son for Christmas as a starter phone.  We cannot get the photos he shot Christmas to download to our Windows vista computer. The only way we can get a photo off this phone  seems to be by email - one at a time -Surely there is some better way!
    I've downloaded iTunes and it will back-up the phone, but I can't find any way to see the photos.  Following an old discussion we tried to look at the phone files without iTunes (clicking on it in My computer ) and it wants to format the disk. 
    The phone wants us to connect to MobileMe, but we don't have an account and it is closed to new registrations, and you need a higher iOS to connect to iCloud.    We have downloaded and tried Diskaid based on another discussion and it can't seem to see the phone either, but iTunes can. I cannot find a way to seach the app store and filter by iOS version, in order to find a some other file transfer program that works with 3.1.3 - they all seem to require 4.0 or higher.
    I thought Apple was supposed to be user-friendly...but it certainly doesn't seem to support older equipment users very well. 

    When there are photos in the Camera Roll, the iPhone is also detected as a digital camera when connected to a compatible computer. Photos in the Camera Roll can be imported by the computer as with any other digital camera, which is not handled by iTunes.
    Try the Windoze scanner and camera wizard, which works with every iPhone and iOS version beginning with the first - 1.0.

  • HT201272 I cannot find previously purchased downloads of American Idol performance video's on my iMac after it had a virus and I cannot download them from the Store?

    My iMac had a Trojan Horse virus and I had to reformat and install it's OS again. Now I cannot download any of my video's that I purchased from the iTunes store of Amerian Idol in 2009. How could I get them back?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    We are fellow users on here, you are not talking to iTunes Support here.
    Whether a film will show in the Purchased link will depend upon what country that you are in (redownloading films isn't possible in all countries), what studio that they are from (not all allow re-downloading), whether they are still in the store (studios occasionally remove them from the store), and whether you've hidden them or not (hiding and unhiding).
    Do any films show in the Purchased link, and do you not have copies of them somewhere ? If some do show but others don't then are they hidden (some might also have been removed from the store or the studio doesn't allow re-downloading) ? If you do have Movies as an option in the Purchased tab and you think that there should be more listed there (and you haven't changed countries since buying them), then you could try contacting iTunes Support and see if they know why they aren't showing
    But as with all content from the store you should be keeping and maintaining your own backup copy of them, as there is no guarantee that a content provider won't remove their items from the store.

  • I cannot download apps on my iPhone 3G. How can I start accessing it?

    I want to download apps

    The iPhone 3G was discontinued 2 1/2 years ago. It maxed out at iOS 4.2.1 and can't run anything higher.
    Apple isn't making your phone useless for apps, the app developers are doing so by not supporting a version of iOS that old.

  • I changed my Apple ID and now I cannot download apps from app store

    I changed my Apple ID and now I cannot download apps from app store, even with ios 6. A message "This app is incompatible with this iphone" appeared. What should I do?

    Hi there joannelim5288!
    I have found an article that can help you to troubleshoot this issue with your iPhone. The article can be found here:
    iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1702
    Specifically, the first three steps listed in the article, and outlined here below, might be the most helpful to you:
    1. Update your device software
    Update your device to the latest version of iOS.
    2. Check for app updates
    Ensure that your apps are up to date:
    Open the App Store and tap Updates. If updates are available, tap Update All.
    When prompted, enter your iTunes Store account information. App Store will then download and install the application updates.
    Note: Some applications may require a Wi-Fi connection to update.
    3. Install another app from the App Store
    If none of your user-installed apps will launch, there could be an issue with Apple ID authorization. Download and install a free (or paid) app that isn't already installed on your device to reset this information. You could also remove an app from your iOS device and download it again from the App Store or sync the app from your computer.
    Note: If you have installed apps using multiple Apple ID accounts, you may need to perform this step for each account.
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
    Cheers,
    Braden
