Download/Update buttons non functional after iOS 6 update

Updated iPad 2 to iOS 6 tonight, initially I had the problem when app updates don't start and just hung. Restarted iPad and the updates appeared to have stopped. Went to update all apps again and the button did nothing. This is the same with all new app downloads/iTunes song purchases/individual app updates. The button does change from the price to "get single" or whatever, but the button just does absolutely nothing when clicked upon.
All occurring over wifi, I don't currently have the laptop the iPad is synced with me but will tomorrow.
Can anyone help me with this very frustrating problem?
I have tried restarting iPad, restarting all apps, signing in and out with my apple ID, nothing appears to work. I can't see any downloads hanging in iTunes.

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).
iOS devices can only be restored with the current iOS version.
No one here has any way of knowing if a "fix" is in the works, but that would imply there is an iOS issue causing your problem, this is highly unlikely. More likely, something from your backup is causing an issue or the device has a hardware failure.

Ssh non-functional after Leopard update

Hi everyone
I upgraded to Leopard three days ago, and I am still trying to solve problems it appears to have created.
One of these problems is that ssh doesn't work.
Pearl:~ clytie$ ssh 10.1.1.1
percent_expand: NULL replacement
Pearl:~ clytie$ ssh -v
OpenSSH_4.6p1, OpenSSL 0.9.8e 23 Feb 2007
usage: ssh [-1246AaCfgkMNnqsTtVvXxY] [-b bind_address] [-c cipher_spec]
[-D [bind_address:]port] [-e escape_char] [-F configfile]
[-i identity_file] [-L [bind_address:]port:host:hostport]
[-l login_name] [-m mac_spec] [-O ctl_cmd] [-o option] [-p port]
[-R [bind_address:]port:host:hostport] [-S ctl_path]
[-w localtun[:remotetun]] [user@]hostname [command]
Pearl:~ clytie$
"ssh ADDRESS" or "ssh HOSTNAME" simply gives the "percent_expand: NULL replacement" response, which I don't understand.
(Luckily, we also have a Mac Mini on our home net, which I haven't upgraded to Leopard yet, so I was able to ssh from that machine.)
I am really disappointed that so many things appear to have been broken by the Leopard upgrade. Repairing permissions, restarting and installing new versions fixed some of the problems, but I still can't receive email (separate thread), and I shudder to think what else is broken that I just haven't tried yet.
Thankyou for any help you can offer with this.

Google finds this fix:
http://www.nabble.com/ssh:-percent_expand:-NULL-replacement-t4701144.html
which works for me.
Be careful when copying the config data: trailing spaces cause config errors.

IPhone 5S home button stopped working after iOS 8.3 update

My home button stopped working after I updated it to the iOS 8.3. My finger print can still unlock the phone but the home button won't work.

What you are describing sounds more like a hardware issue than a software issue. Make an appointment at the genius bar of your local apple retail store and have the device evaluated.

Cannot update apps via iTunes after iOS 8 install

After updating my iPhone 4S to iOS 8.0.2, iTunes (ver 11.4, under OS 10.6.8) will no longer do a backup nor any direct usb cord App updates. I could download all the updates to my Mac and they showed up in the connected iphone App list. Although the bottom banner showed nearly 5 GB of free space, as soon as I selected one of the App update button (which changed to "will update" the bottom banner change to read "not enough free space." Then, I tried asking it to deleting an App and it came up with the usual "do you really want to" warning. After clicking yes, it basically did nothing. I also tried doing a manual backup of the iPhone which just resulted in a very quick "scanning" status message, then nothing. I rechecked my Apple IDs, device authorizations, and restriction settings and they all seem OK. Finally, I shut down and restarted both the Mac and the iPhone then tried it all again with same results. Direct Cell or WiFi App updates on the
iPhone work fine, but, I prefer doing them via the Mac so all are locally saved, plus, I do not have to do double downloads for my wifes iphone.

If i click for example on the update button in app store, there is just this ''downloading circle'' and shows loading.. and loading.. and loading and just nothing happens. Also the sympol of the updating app gets grey and there stands ''waiting''.
If i try to download an App, there is the same on the install/download button and there shows up a grey symbol of the app and nothing else happens.
No error message or something else. Just shows that it ''loads'' and nothing happens.

I am having trouble with my iPod 5th gen after iOS update. It's in recovery mode and iTunes keeps timing out when I try to restore it. What should I do??? If possible, I would also like to keep all of my data.

Maybe this will help:
Troubleshooting
As with all clickwheel iPods, you can reset this iPod by first toggling the hold switch on and off and then simultaneously pressing the select (center) and menu buttons for approximately 5-10 seconds. This is a common fix should your iPod behave unexpectedly or lock up. Once reset, the iPod should display an Apple logo for a few seconds before showing the main menu. This procedure is similar to rebooting a computer and damages none of your music or data.

Can't connect to wifi after IOS update. Do you know a solution?

Loaded the new update and now it is sporatic connections with the wi fi. I have unplugged the router and all that, still no luck. It will work normally very briefly, but only briefly after I unplug the router, etc.
Do any of you have a solution to fix this?
Thank you!

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Blurr images after ios update

Hi,
is it true that after ios update some will experience blurred images for images previously existing in the iphone before the update? If so, what is the cause and resolution?
thanks!

by "using itunes to remove the photos" do you mean syncing an empty folder?
No. With your phone connected, itunes running, just un-check all the photos/albums, currently on your phone, under the photos tab in itunes. Hit the apply/sync button. This will remove all the photos currently synced to your phone. Once complete, just sync them back.

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

Cannot activate iMessage after iOS update.

Cannot activate iMessage after iOS update. "Activation unsuccessful" I cannot activate it.

Have you updated your iOS to 5.1? Just confirming as it says "iPhone 4S, iOS 5.0.1" in your thread.
Double check if you have credit in your mobile in order to activate iMessage.
Turn iMessage off and on again, than turn off your phone (long press display off and on button) and slide to turn off. Turn your phone back on, enter your "Apple I.D" in the iMessage window and wait till it verifies everything.
Tell us if it solves the issue.

How can I improve picture quality...now grainy after IOS update!

How can I improve picture quality...now grainy after IOS update!

Hello, dreamer5th.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Here are some troubleshooting steps that I would recommend going through when experiencing this issue. They are labeled for the iPhone; however, the steps also apply to your iPad. Also, make sure to test the camera in well lighted conditions as this can affect picture quality.
Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
Try to remain steady while focusing:
Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.
Hardware troubleshooting

If the issue persists see the last section labeled Issue not resolved.
Cheers,

I have an iphone 4 but no software update button. How do I update iOS?

iOS version prior to ios 5 do not include a way to update the iOS over the air on the device itself. You must use iTunes on the computer you normally sync with to complete the update.
Start iTunes on your computer and use the menu to check for updates. If an update to iTunes is available download and install it.
Then start iTunes on your computer and connect your iPhone. Select your iPhone in the left column of iTunes and select General in the right column. Scroll down to find Check for Updates.
