  • Error trying to update apps on Ipod touch.

    I have internet access and can even open itunes store and make purchases.  But my ipod touch indicates there are updates for my apps.  When I try to update the apps I receive an error message "cannot connect to itunes store".  I went back to itunes and purchased a song to make sure it was working properly.
    What do I need to do to fix this?  Everything else including movies on internet work fine.

    On My Mac Pro Getting an unknown error message when trying to update apps To Perchase Mountain Lion

    Try signing out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again and see if that works for you.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID - tap your 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.
    Sign in again -Settings>Store>Apple ID - sign in.
    If that doesn't work either, reset your iPad and see if that helps.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • "unknown error has occurred" while trying to update apps

    Hi all, hoping someone can help:
    When trying to update apps in the App store, after being prompted to log into the app store, I get the error message "An unknown error has occurred" in red. I've tried restarting (the app and my mac) clearing the cache, and my firewall is not on. I am able to sign in to the the Itunes store, but cannot sign in at all to the App store. Any insights? Thanks!

    Make sure you are signed out of iTunes before signing in to the Mac App Store.
    And try deleting App Store pref file..
    Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following:
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist
    Click Go then move the com.apple.appstore.plist file to the Trash.
    Restart your Mac and try the App Store.

  • Trying to update apps on iphone and getting error message, there is not enough available local storage to download these items. you can manage your local device storage usage in settings

    trying to update apps on iphone and getting error message, there is not enough available local storage to download these items. you can manage your local device storage usage in settings. What am I to do?

    The storage you purchased is in the cloud, and doesn't do anything with your pad.  Your problem is simply that you have too much content on your pad.   Go to settings, general, usage, and it will show you how much space you have avaliable on your pad.  If you let the screen sit for a while, all the apps will be displayed, and you can see how much stuff you have associated with each.
    You have to no option but to delete some of the content on your pad.  Videos, comics, pitcures and some music files use a lot of space.   The cloud allows you to leave stuff there, so you can get it when you need it.

  • Unknown error 400 when updating apps through iTunes.

    I have been getting an error message 400 when trying to update apps from the app store on my macbook. I can only update them from my iphone. I am able to purchase and download the original apps as well as music and movies. Are there any fixes for this issue? I do not have this problem on my imac.
    Thanks

    I had the same problem and after a full day on the phone with Apple, there was no solution. Then, I tripped over it! The issue was with a third party program that was supposed to be allowing all traffic, but wasn't. The program is NetBarrier and once it was removed and my MacBook Pro was rebooted, all was great. The iMac wasn't affected (in my case) because I never installed that program on the iMac.
    I blogged it here: http://www.wickedblog.com/2010/03/23/itunes-wont-update-apps-itunes-error-400/. I hope this helps others avoid hours of searching.

    When trying to update  Apps in iTunes on my computer my old Apple ID appears, which is no longer in use and has no password; even when I try to create a password for this Old ID, Apple won't let me. When I go into see my Account settings My new Apple ID / iTunes ID are listed and the passwords are correct obviously so why can't I update my Apps?   Why does my Old apple ID keep appearing and how can I get Apple to change this?

    I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
    The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account.  I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there.  On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back.  Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email.  The device is currently useless.
    The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
    Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?

    If you dont have none option then you must own itunes some money. So you have to enter the payment like a itunes giftcard. you can contact itunes by email by going to expresslane.apple.com

  • When trying to update apps it asks for account password but it doesn't show my account. Help!

    When trying to update apps it asks for account password but it doesn't show my account ID, it shows my dad's. How can I fix this so I can sign in?

    It sounds like the apps were purchased using your dads account, so they will have to be updated using that account.

  • My friend gave me ipod touch with all his accounts, i created new accounts but when i went on the appstore and tried to update apps installed by him,i was asked his account's password! i dont know his password.how can i use my account to update apps?

    You can't.  Apps and really all content purchased/downloaded through one Apple ID is forever tied to that Apple ID.  In the case of Apps they will always request that Apple ID to update as they are licensed to that Apple ID.
    In reality, the Apps were licensed to that Apple ID by the developer.  And cannot simply be given away to you for you to use.
    He should have wiped the iPod clean so you could set it up for your use without any of his accounts or purchased content as you are not really licensed to any of those Apps.
    Your friend should have followed this support document before giving the iPod to you:
