Download Stuck in WAITING status

Tonight, tried to download a movie for rental. It started and showed 22 minutes remaining, which is crazy, as usually it immediately hits 2% and I begin watching - I've had the ATV since it was first available and I've never had to wait for a download. I checked my internet connection, iMAC network test reporting 22down/6up, typical for me. When I use Apple TV to watch trailers, youtube, etc., it flies. Trailers download instantly, long YouTube files don't buffer. Everything plays nicely. Now the movie is stuck in WAITING. When I click on the movie icon from main screen and then click on the WAITING button, it switches to DOWNLOADING and then right back to WAITING. I've rebooted ATV, downloaded latest update, etc. Seems everything works great except this one movie download. Any ideas?

I mean knowing alittle about "Music Match" because had it for about a year now and I have a 40 gig size library.. When Music Match is DL tracks you don't DL apps (this is a given). So seems in my case music Match failed for whatever reason, so the OS still thinks it needs to DL song but doesn't. So I can't DL apps because OS still has phantom music tracks to download. So that is where (I believe) I am stuck.. Somehow I need to reset this DL process. Any ideas besides a full restore of my phone would be great. Thanks,
Chris
Again music Match is turn off on my iphone 5 and still can't down apps from app store.. the get stuck in "waiting" status.

Hi bunjamin,
just go to BlackBerry World, and update all your apps including BBM.

you can turn off the magnifying glass :
device settings >> accessibility >> magnify mode >> OFF
you can deactivate the "reset to Hub view" :
hub >> overflow (bottom right button) >> Settings >> Display and actions >> Return to Default View When Idle >> OFF

Apps stuck in 'waiting' status

I've seen a few similar posts, but adding mine here. iPad2 software version 5.1 - last two days, app downloads and updates stuck in 'waiting' status. Tried signing out, powering off and back on, and then signing back in, but no luck. Works fine when syncing through itunes on computer, but no luck with cloud downloads or over wi-fi from app store. Also automatic cloud downloads aren't pushing to iPad. Help us Apple!!!!

First, Apple isn't on these forums, so your'e just writing your fellow users here. Second, Apple servers are overloaded with new users updating to their new devices, downloading new apps, etc. Give it a few days to settle down, but you're just seeing the fact that there are more users than the servers can handle at one time.

After installing ios6 I now have app downloads stuck in waiting mode. I went to down in App Store but could not find a way to disable them. How can I do this. I never had this problem on ios5. I'm using an iPad 3

Mavericks download stuck in waiting

I'm trying to download Mavericks and the app gets stuck in my launchpad on waiting. Sometimes after sitting in "waiting" it just stops trying to download all together. How do I fix this?

Well I'm in a right old pickle with it; trying to install on my snow leoparded out (10.6.8) Imac (7,1) here's what I've done so far:
Attempted download - stuck in waiting mode.
Attempted download from the purchases tab - stuck in waiting mode
Signed out and back in to the App Store, unhid purchases and attempted download from the purchases tab - again stuck in waiting mode
Looked in the applications folder in an attempt to remove any part-downloads - no sign of them.
Installed the latest installer - to no avail.
No Launchpad either to try as this install is Snow Leopard.
Network connection is fine - downloaded and installed mavericks through the router onto my other Mac... Macbook Air - Lion.
It's been six days now on and off I've been attemtpting this - very frustrating.
Any help gratefully appreciated.

App download stuck on waiting on iPhone 6 plus when the app is purchased on another device

iPhone 6 Plus on AT&T running iOS 8.1.2. When I purchase or "get" an app on my macbook, the app shows up on the 6 plus, but hangs in "waiting." The app, however, will download perfectly on my iPad mini. I have tried restarting the device normally, and restarting it while pressing the home and sleep buttons (hard reset?), resetting network settings, signing out of iTunes and back in, and even setting up the phone as new. The problem occurred before and after doing a complete restore and setting it up as new. The only solution that works is removing the app while in "waiting" status, and initiating the download from the 6 plus itself. I don't know if this is a bug that will be resolved in 8.2 or if I am missing something. (automatic downloads are on and set for both updates and new app downloads, wifi is working) There are no other problems with app downloads on the 6 plus; auto-updates work perfectly. This issue only happens when the download is initiated on another device.

Ditto!
I too have the same problem. Any luck for you?
I tried everything possible so far but nothing happened.

Download hung in waiting status

I have multiple applications I'm trying to download but they are all hung with "waiting" status. I can't delete them because they don't have the little "x" in the corner when I try to delete them. Any suggestions?

Never mind. I saw a tip on the iPhone and I reset the network settings and it cleared my problem.

Os x 10.8.4. download stuck in waiting

App store app shows update available for os x 10.8.4. and iTunes 11.0.4 I I clicked on 'update' and now I am stuck with 'waiting' next to the update box. I tried to quit the Mac store app and couldn't because the message reads the os is in the process of updating. So here I sit. Except, of course, to check bread dough rising, do laundry, feed my dog, etc etc. How do I get out of this and why isn't the system updating? Why is it just waiting?
Thanks much,
Barb

Press Alt, Command and Esc keys, select App Store and close it. Then, restart and try to install these updates from the App Store.
If you still can't update, download the updates manually from the Apple website > http://support.apple.com/downloads I recommend you to download the 10.8.4 Combo edition

App downloading stuck on "waiting"

Every time I try to download an app from my iPad, it remans stuck on "waiting". This does not happen on my iPhone (I share the same iTunes account).
I tried resetting network settings, rebooting the iPad, but the issue is still there. I have no pending downloads on iTunes and every other topic I read on this forum didn't help at all.
Can someone help me out?
Thanks.

If this was not one of the topics that you read on the forum, give it a try. There is no guarantee that it will work, but I have seen it work for others in the past.
Try signing out of your account and restart your iPad.
Go to Settings>Store>Apple ID and tap the 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> Apple ID and sign in again.

All downloads stuck on "Waiting". Unable to update apps/podcasts

Apps/Podcasts/Updates won't download. Instead they just get stuck in "waiting" mode permanently. I have tried rebooting my iPhone to no avail. This happens even if I am dowloading only one podcast. My internet connection is strong and I am trying to download something very small (5 min podcast). Just trying to download one item has been on waiting. This issue started a few days ago for me, after the new iPhone update. This problem is not just mine. Many others are having this problem as well https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3792214?start=60&tstart=0. It doesn't look like Apple has realized that this is an issue for many people.

Ok, tried it and this is what happenned- so Im open to your suggestions and will try them- THANK you for your assistance
In iTens, I have 24 podcasts showing up on the "Download" icon 21 say "tap to resume download" and 3 say "Download error. Tap to retry" Ive tired to retry all 3, but a popup "unable to download podcast" message pops up afterl. "Retry" does nothing, and "Done" does nothing either.-
I didnt see a way to logout of itunes, but I did logout of the apple store via the "Apps" icon, restarted and when I came back its still the same. 63 apps to be updated. I signed back into the "apps" I went to the updates and then tried to update one manually- when I hit the "Update " button it did not ask me for my PW, but sort of closed and went back to the main screen- liek it would do if it had asked me for the pw and was updating...
Any tips?

IPad downloads stuck on 'waiting'?

Trying to download apps on my iPad (Wifi) but keeps saying 'waiting'?

Do you have any apps downloading that you dont see...perhaps in a folder?
If not, try going into the app store to the app you are trying to download. If it says installed next to the app, hit your home button and your app should begin to download.
If not, try to delete the app by holding it down and tapping the 'x' next to it. From there, simply redownload it from the app store and your back in buisness.
Still having trouble...?
Try downloading a similar app or go onto your main computer.
go into the iTunes Store
Search the app you are looking for in the search bar
Download it onto your main computer and sync it to your device.
(You may have to cancel the download on your device first before you sync it to your main computer.)
If you are still having difficulties try this
go into iTunes>more>Downloads
look for waiting dowloads there
Delete the waiting download and redoenload the app from the App Store either on your iPad or your main computer
For Future Reference: Usually if you have one download having difficulties, it messes up your entire system which makes using your device that much harder. I recomend the last option I suggested. It worked for me and this other user by the name of britewhitelight

Songs Stuck in Waiting Status

I subscribed to iTunes Match and let it do it's thing. After about 5 days, I still have 21 songs that I purchased from iTunes(with DRM)showing waiting. I have tried to force them to update but still shows waiting.
Any thoughts?

In general, when a track in your iTunes library has a status of "waiting" that means it is in queue to be uploaded. However that may not be what is happening to your particular songs.
Has iTunes Match finished it's initial scan, match and upload process? You can tell by looking in the left-hand column of iTunes under Store. If there is an "iTunes Match" click it and you can see what the process is doing.
If iTunes Match has finished you may need to do a little monkeying with the files. Create a Smart Playlist with these critera:
You can omit the last entry if you like. I just use it to keep Digital Booklets out of the playlist. Next, enable the iCloud Status, iCloud Download, Bit Rate and Kind columns by pulling down View > View Options, selecting the check boxes and clicking OK.
What you should see in these colums will tell you what is happening with the files. You may find these two KB articles helpful in your trouble shooting:

HT1688 itunes download stuck on waiting

Every time I update or download an app from the App Store, a greyed out widget that says "waiting" shows up on my homescreen. Tapping, double tapping and trying to delete does nothing. The only way I can get the actual app to show up is to do a hard reset on my 4S, which is getting really annoying. I have done the following steps
1. Reset network settings
2. Reset ALL settings and restored from back up
3. Signed out of the Store, hard reset, signed back in
I checked iTunes and there is nothing in the downloads section. I do not use podcasts so it's not that...this all started a couple of days ago when the iTunes store went down.

- First try resetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Next would be to place the iPod in recovery mode. See:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

Musics stuck on waiting status

Hi there !
I looked up many topoics and tried many things but I still have waiting songs on my library.
Can you advise me how to solve it ?
Thanks

Found the solution in another discussion and I am sharing bellow:
1) Go to iTunes (in the iPad)
2) Select downloads
3) Delete the downloads there (in my case, my little son has commanded a lot of them and I didn´t know it).
To delete you must slip your finger in the item from left to right
