Downloading apps problem on iOS 7 on iPhone 4?

So my brother downloaded iOS 7 on his iPhone 4 tonight. Everything seemed to have gone smoothly except all his apps were deleted. Now when he tries to redownload them (over wifi) the App Store only has an open button which it will open the app but it doesn't download to the home screen. Does anyone know how we can fix this? Or how to download apps to the screen with the new system? I would greatly appreciate it!!

Someone help please???

If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
Tip 2 - If you are updating using wifi, locate your iPad close to your router so you don't get a wifi dropout (can cause update corruption).

Can a ipod 3rd gen have a software update so it can allow me download apps that are available on iphone 4s?

See:

You need iTunes 10,5 or later on the coputer.
Are you sure you really do not have a 2G iPod? Those can only go to 4.2.1

iPod touch (3rd generation)
iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.

Definitely sounds like an issue with your Wi-Fi network. Do any other devices on the network have similar issues? Is it an issue only with downloading apps? You can check by trying to load a website in Safari.
I would try turning your Wi-Fi router off for 1 minute, and back on again.
After doing that, disconnect and re-join the Wi-Fi network on your iPhone and try downloading an app again.

Depending on the size of the app or the connection speed when using Wi-Fi it could take a little longer to download. You can also try to download it onto your computer, might be faster, and sync it to the phone after that.

Hi my case numbers is 30758085. I just try download apps store on my Verizon iPhone 4 but they keep ask me billling payment so I use my credit card but keep said wrong security codes so I check my apple itune balances said I owe itune 22.00 dollars but it not my apps download on my phone I always get free apps Download

Please don't post case numbers or other personal information here. None of us here (who will respond, anyway) work for Apple; we're all just fellow users.
Anyway, as regards the security code issue, this may help:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646
and as regards the balance, first make sure you didn't make any in-app purchases. Many "free" apps, particularly games, have additional levels or features that cost money. Check your purchase history in your iTunes Store account and see what you're being charged for.
Regards.

IPAD MINI RETINA SCREEN VERSION IOS 7.1.2 can't success download apps , need to reboot every times only can download apps. Is iOS problem or hardware issue.? Local agent switch sale and tech support can't fix my problem.

I Purchase iPad mini retina screen on July 7 2014 at Malaysia local apple sale agent switch store somehow now my iPad did restore to latest iOS 7.1.2, before that and after also facing 1new issue is my iPad mini cant success download apps and error message show can't download at this time, either retry or click done. My internet is good condition no line down, I reboot my iPad only can download but sometime can't need to reboot twice only can download. Very sad local sale and tech support can't help to solve my problem...

Reset the device:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
You will have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.
No data is lost due to a reset.
If nothing above helped, try here > iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections

Is there a way to download apps that require ios 7 on my ios 6 iPod Touch?

So I came across this forum as many others, just trying to find some answers as to why I can't or how I could get ios 7 on my 4th gen ipod touch... So I guess the answer is no, not possible and I suppose I can understand the reason as someone stated in another thread that it is because Apple does not want their users to have a bad experience and the 4th gen does not have the CPU nor the Ram for it to provide a usable and good experience... which leads me to the root of the problem. Read on...
You see, I don't really care about ios 7 and any of its features, what I do care about is that I can no longer download some apps now because there is this popup that tells me that the app only supports ios 7 and I need to update my device to the latest software, ios 7. So how then is my Apple experience, a positive experience if I am no longer allowed to download apps that I could before the ios 7 update even existed? a
Perhaps I'm wrong? Maybe there is a way for me to download and still use these apps. If that is the case, I would love to learn how.
Honestly, this is something that really makes me nervous as I am strongly considering switching from Android (After years of Apple hating) to my first Apple iPhone. But I would really hate to get me an iPhone 5s, only to find out that in a year I could no longer download apps because a new update will not work on my phone? Is that a possibility?

Well, no. It's because that the iPod 4th Gen has iOS 6 and the apps need iOS 7. I suggest that you get the new iPod 5 because it has iOS 7. Also the iPod 4 does not have enough CPU or RAM. The new iPod 5 has enough CPU and RAM to store iOS 7 apps.
Thanks!

Cant download apps on appstore iOS 7

Im using an iPad mini
Today i just updated my ipad to os 7
When i want to download apps... I dont work
I cant download apps -.- please every body help
Sorry my english bad
It just keep rolling a circle and then it stops and disappear

ALL MY PROBLEMS ARE GONE on my upgraded IPAD 2 running on ios 7 which included “no access to ITunes to update Apps” and “slow web or no connectivity”
All because of changes to DNS Settings Change !!!! as described below and after trying all solutions given by others - try and let me also know on my mobile +263 772 242 560 (Zimbabwe – Colas Ziki)
This fix has been recommended by Apple support and has proven successful for many commenters on my previous post. The way this works is to change DNS settings on your iPad or whichever iOS device is affected – by adding Google’s DNS server/s. Here’s how to do this:
– Go to the Settings app and tap on the Wi-Fi section in the left sidebar
– Then look at the ‘Choose a Network’ section in the main right-hand side area of the page and look for the network name that has a check mark next to it and rendered in blue text – the WiFi network you are currently using
– Tap on the blue arrow at the right-hand side of the listing for that network.
– On the next screen you’ll see a section labeled ‘IP Address’ with three large buttons below it. Make sure the DHCP button is selected. Below that you’ll see fields for IP Address, Subnet Mask, and others. Tap on the DNS field (the fourth one down).
– This will bring up the iPad’s on-screen keyboard and place the cursor at the end of the IP address for the DNS server currently being used by the iPad. Backspace until all the numbers for that address are gone. Then type this in:
8.8.8.8
Please note the periods after the first three 8s. You can also use 8.8.4.4 – both are valid addresses for Google’s DNS servers.

Downloading app problem

I just received my new iphone 4s and everytime i try to download twitter or facebook app it says "unable to download application at this time"

Hi keander7,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
These troubleshooting steps from our Can't connect to the iTunes Store article can help in a case like yours:
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.
Note: If connected to 3G, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
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 persists, see troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections.
Note: All iPhone, and iPod touch models support 802.11b/g Wi-Fi networks. In addition, iPhone 4, and iPod touch (4th generation) support 802.11n Wi-Fi networks (2.4 GHz only).
Cheers,
Jeremy

Why can't I download app in my iPad and iPhone today???

I can't download any update or new app today. What is going on!!! Both my iPad and iPhone with the same user ID.

Nobody here could possibly know why you can't download apps today. I can tell you that there are no reported issues with any of Apple Services in the U.S. which you can see here.

You will certainly have to provide some more information if you need help, like what exactly is happening?

My newly downloaded apps will not open on iPhone 6 8.3

Hi,
I've been having an issue with my new iPhone 6+ that will not open any newly downloaded apps. They instantly close upon trying to open them. Is anyone else experiencing this issue or know of a solution?
I have attempted to uninstall and reinstall all the apps giving me issues but this did not solve my issue. I am trying to prevent doing a full wipe of the phone so any help will be appreciated.
Thank you.

Hello tentaclarm,
