Cannot install apps from App Store after iOS 7.04 upgrade
Hi everyone
I am new to iPad and Apple, and wonder if someone can please help me with this problem. I upgraded to iOS 7.04 yesterday, and today I cannot install any new apps from the App Store. Before the upgrade I could do this no problem. The 2 apps I am trying to download are free ones - eBay and Yahoo Mail.
I have tried to search for a solution in the discussions on here, but have only found threads from Sept 13, which point to Apple's servers being overloaded and people should wait until after the hubbub of the recent upgrade has died down. As it's now Feb 14, I would have thought things would be ok now, so feel my problem maybe nothing to do with that.
Two other bits of advice I found, I have also checked...... The date and time in settings are correct, and I believe I am signed in (but only because a 'sign in' is not showing so that's my assumption). The only advice I have not tried is hitting reset on my iPad as I'm nervous of loosing my stuff.
When I go into the App Store, select the app I want, click 'free' and then 'install', the blue spinning arrow appears. I leave it to install, but when I check later, it's still spinning. I've even left it a good 15 mins, which for those 2 apps would be way more time than needed.
Has anyone else has this same problem, and successfully found a solution? I would really appreciate some advice please.
Thanks, Vikki
Try this, press and hold both the home and power buttons 10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Release both buttons. Wait 15-20 seconds till your iPad starts on it's own. If they don't download at least the timer should stop.

Hi Sognam,
If you are having issues with the billing information on your Apple ID account for free apps on the iTunes Store, you may find the following article helpful:

Cannot install updates from app store
imac 2012, 2.7GHz i5, 8GB, Yosemite 10.10.2
After updating to Yosemite 10.10.1 the app store stopped installing system apps such as 10.10.2, iTunes, Hp and Epson updates, iMovies etc. I solved the 10.10.2 update by downloading and directly installing but the app store still did not not allow updates for security updates, iTunes etc.
App store lists the updates available, I click update, it says installing for 2 seconds, then says installed and lists the installed app under 'updates installed in the last 30days'. A few seconds later the app returns under 'updates available' as needing updating.
After trying verify and fix disk and verify and fix permissions without success, I reinstalled Yosemite 10.10.2 by using CMD R and selecting reinstall OS X, however the problem is exactly the same - I cannot update OS X software apps.
Any ideas?Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try to update. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
Some private information, such as your name or email address, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. -
Cannot connect to store after iOS 5.1 upgrade
Is anyone else having trouble. I am constantly turning off and on the iPad to connect to the store. I can connect to everything including the store but when I download that is when I get the connection error.
Any thing I can do?Try logging out of the store account, then back in. To do so, got to Settings > Store. Tap on your Apple ID, then sign out, then sign back in.
Another option to try is rebooting your iPad. To reboot: Press and hold BOTH the power and hobe buttons at the SAME time for about 10 seconds (ignore the red slider to shut down) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad will restart. You won't lose any data or settings. -

When trying to install apps from app store it does not prompt an apple id and after 15 minutes says "cannot connect to itunes store".
Your Apple ID may be greyed out because of restrictions. Settings>General>Restrictions>Allowed Changes>Accounts. If you set that restriction, your ID will be greyed out. Nobody can make changes to the account without entering the passcode to change disable the restriction.
Maybe something in here will help, even though this is not exactly what you are experiencing.

After IOS 8 update, cannot install or update app
As my subject mentioned, after the ios 8 update, i cannot install or update app. I have done everything like calling the tech support, follow their instructions etc.. Some of the things i had done were
Soft reset ipad
Hard reset ipad
logout of itune store and login
delete everything on ipad and restore from itunes.
All these doesn't work and the problem keeps coming back again. This is frustrating that Apple would release an update like this that would break my ipad air. On top of that, quite a lot of app are not working eg zinio, evernote. My ipad air has been in this mode eversince the update release and i had mostly given up to resolve it. For all other ipad owners, if you want to avoid this anguish don't update to ios 8.You are not alone. Here's one thread
Why can't I download or update apps on iPad running iOS 8
If you have the WSJ app installed, delete it and see if that fixes things. It immediately fixed it for me, but not for all people with the problem. -

i install some app from app store in my iphon 5s and after finish download open window appear near app but this window not work my mean is app not open
and also in phon display i can not find this app please tell me what is problem?
many thanksMac's do a pretty good job of keeping themselves tidy and not clogging up with masses of redundant files, so the use of cleanup utilities tends to be unecessary - - - and can cause more problems than it solves!
The apps that no longer appear in Launchpad - are they still in your Applications folder accessed through Finder? If so, try launching them from there and see if they reappear in Launchpad.
As for non-displayed emails, Clean My Mac may have wiped them. But try this - back up any important files, then select a folder in Mail (say, inbox), click Mailbox in top menu, then click rebuild (the last option on that menu). If they do not reappear, then you could try accessing them from your mail/internet provider providing you have opted to keep messages on server.
As a last resort, you could try restore from Time Machine - you do keep a backup don't you? -

Guys, good evening!
What is the most recently (or the best) iOS for the iphone 3G?
Nowadays, I'm using the 4.2.1, but I'm having some problems to install apps from Apple Store because this iOS is not compatible with the apps.
Thank you very much...Thank You Niel!
And if I install another version (eg 4.3), can I damage my iphone?
This is the version required by the Apple Store when I try to install apps.
For you understand better my problem, I'm not able to install simple apps like facebook and skype
What do you advise me to do?
Best regards,
Jocemar -
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
