App will not download to iPad when purchased from App Store - stuck with Cloud icon
Device : iPad Air 32gb wi-fi model (not cellular data)
OS version : 7.1.1 (up to date)
Location : UK
Problem : App will not download to iPad when purchased from App Store - stuck with Cloud icon
Last night I tried to download an app over wi-fi onto my iPad Air, but the app did not install.
I have plenty of space (the app is 24.1mb, I have 3.4gb free space) and there are no restrictions whatsoever on my iPad - no blocks on App store purchases, no age-related restrictions, no country restrictions etc.
Normally from the App Store page you would tap the price (in this case the app was free), enter your iTunes password, and the app would download.
Also a new icon appears on the home screen and a circle shows the progress of the download.
However this did not happen.
Instead I have the Cloud icon (the one that shows when you have bought an app but it is not currently installed on your device) and a message that says "You've already purchased this, so it will be downloaded now at no additional cost".
If I press OK I am then prompted to enter my iTunes password, the Cloud symbol briefly changes to a circle (and I mean for a split-second, like the blink of an eye) and then the Cloud symbol appears again.
The app does not download - in fact it does not even *attempt* to download.
I have tried this >20 times now and it always occurs excatly like this.
After Googling this problem (which seems common) and reading over a dozen threads on this forum plus Apple's own official support pages, this is what I've tried:
I can re-download other apps that I have previously purchased on this iPad, with no problems.
I purchased another app on my iPhone 5 and was then able to download onto my iPad with no problems.
I have reset my iPad >5 times - both by pressing/holding the home/power buttons, and also a full switch off and restart.
I have logged out of my iTunes account on the iPad, and logged back in.
The wi-fi is Virgin Media fibre optic broadband with a verified speed of 20 meg (confirmed by Speedtest) plus an 802.11-n Belkin router and my iPad will happily load web pages, stream videos on YouTube, download other apps etc.
I have reset/rebooted my internet connection
In an attempt to eliminate by broadband connection from the possible causes, I have switched off my router, linked my iPad to the hotspot feature on my iPhone and tried to download the app over cellular data, but still cannot download the app.
I have tried on 2 other wi-fi networks but still cannot download this one app.
My iTunes account has a cerdit balance from an iTunes card, but the app was free anyway
Nothing I try will download the app in question.
The app is iPad only, so I cannot install on my iPhone to try and kick-start the process.
I guess I could install the app on my computer and then sync the iPad, but that's *working around* the problem - it's not *fixing* the problem.
(Since getting the iPad I use almost never use my computer. And anyway what if I did not have a computer? Didn't iOS go "PC-free" with version 5?)
I would like to call Apple but my 90-day telephone support has expired (the iPad is around 6 months old) and I don't want to buy Apple Care for this one problem.
I can't make it to an Apple Store to speak to a Genius.
Bearing in mind the list of things I've already tried, what do I do next?
Thanks in advance for any support.Hi there.
Thank you very much for your quick reply, it's really appreciated.
No need to apologize, I actually found the phrase "If your iPad ever craps the bed" amusing under the circumstances
I checked the list of installed apps like you suggested (Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Show all apps) but this problem app is not in the list. I have also swiped down on the home screen to search for it, but again it does not show.
While it has not let me download the app (and I just tried it again) it has helped me to eliminate a few things from the list of what to try, and I can definitely conclude that it has not downloaded.
I guess I need to fire up my PC and download it / sync my iPad.
Thanks again for your help -
Settings (and other Apps) Will Not Start (Metro)
This morning most Modern Apps will not start on my system, including the Settings app. It seems to be a DCOM failure and seems directly related to this old thread.
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/7e6fe520-af09-4a38-b333-30ed5978f70c/control-panel-will-not-start-metro?forum=windowsdeveloperpreviewgeneral
This is a current Windows 8.1 installation, full up to date on patches, and the problem still occurs after rebooting. I checked for newly installed patches, etc. and the only thing recent was the Windows Defender definitions update.
It's an i7 with 32 GB of RAM, fast SSD's etc. I don't believe this is a hardware problem in any way.

That matches almost exactly with the referenced thread. But that thread never seemed to give a set of steps to resolve the issue (other than doing a Refresh which would be a catastrophic waste of time, reinstalling my whole development environment).
I really would appreciate some help resolving this issue. If I'm in the wrong forum, please move or suggest a more appropriate place.
Thanks,

Esquire magazine app will not start. There is an update. I tap it to download, it goes to the revolving circle for a second and then reverts to the update button.
Esquire also has an app for the iPhone. I'd like to download it, but the exact same thing happens when I tap the download button on my iPhone.
Other apps have been updating and downloading correctly on both devices.It may be worth getting in touch with the App Developer regarding this in the first instance. You can get their details from the App page for the app in question. As this is happening on both iPad and iPhone it's likely to be a bug in the app.

Ipad2 will not start ,just dead.battery is charged
Ipad2 will not start ,just dead.battery is charged
Mine had a similar thing happen after a few weeks, except that mine wouldn't even start until I'd done the reset - I havn't had a problem since. Unless you start getting regular problems I wouldn't get too concerned. And it may have been caused by apps that you've downloaded, so it may not necessarily be down to the operating system or Apple's apps - but no code is bug free.

Please help me. My YouTube app will not work. Every time I open it says 'cannot connect to youtube'. I have searched for help and tried resetting my settings and rebooting my ipad2 but nothing has solved the issue.
Yes, I am connected to the Internet through my wifi. Everything is working fine with the e eption of youtube. I have reset all Internet settings and have tried synching to iTunes followed by rebooting. This is all the advice I have found although none of it has been helpful.
Has anyone else encountered this problem? -

Reh... Doesn't work on my 2012 Mac mini. A function key set in Sys Prefs worked in Leopard and Lion on my MB but I cannot get any key to work using SysPref Dictation & Speech. It is befuddling and now I have to go to Edit-Speech to turn on and turn off speech to selected text.
I have used Macs and Apple 2es since cave man days and Apple is becoming so befuddling I am wondering if there is even an advantage to it over Windows XP. I spent a lot on this little box, it looks good (the first one had to be exchanged as it wouldn't link to my keyboard ???) but Apple intuitive does no longer seem meaningful.
If speech to text no longer is accessible by short cuts using Fkeys, why bother to have it in Syst Prefs?
Apple is losing its way. The pleasure is gone and no one at Apple seems to care. -
Will not start on New Install. Opening goes straight to Crash reporter
Will not start on New Install. Clicking on icon does not open a window and goes straight to Crash reporter. I cannot access a window to try to open in safe mode (unless there is another method than outlined in the help article).
I run Windows XP and trying to install the latest 15.0.1 version. Before install, I did disable my Symantic virus protection. I have never used Firefox and would like to try it, but I'm having little success so far to even get started.
Please let me know if anyone has any other ideas or need more information from me.hello Singyt, the bug report associated to this kind of crash indicates that it might be a malware related issue.
your crash report also shows a file named "urixalog.dll", which doesn't turn up any search hits on google, which is also slightly suspicious. could you search for that file on your pc and upload it to a site like virustotal.com in order to analyze it.

HELP : MacBook will not start !! Well, actually ...
Hello to you all Apple/Mac lovers ,
As the title said, my MacBook has gone wild. Here's the thing : I start it up, the gray apple appears and the spinning wheel under it. After an unusually long time of spinning, my computer ... shuts down. And that's it. Hopefully one of you will be able to fix it, usin the info below.
I tried to fix it, and here's what I did :
- I first used the Apple Hardware test (by inserting the installation DVD and pressing D on start up) : no errors detected.
- Then I used the disk utility (by inserting the installation DVD and pressing C on start up) : there, it said that there was an "Invalid sibling link", and that it couldn't complete the verification or repair because "The underlying task reported failure on exit".
- Lastly I used the "Startup Disk" application (found with the Disk Utility) and it first showed me 3 things : the Mac OS 10.5.3 folder from my hard disk (which is what it usually uses), the Mac OS 10.4.8 Install Disk, and then a Network Startup (but that's not gonna work). However it was quite late in the night so I chose the option "Turn Off" (in one of the top menus) and went to bed.
The next morning I repeated the previous procedure but this time the Leopard folder did not show up !! This is where I am at right now. Here are what seem to be my options :
- Re-install 10.4.8 (it will store 10.5.3 in a folder called "Previous System"). It says that I will not be able to boot from there anymore - is that true ? I should like to, because if the system needs to erase all data from my hard disk, then I will need to use my Time Machine backup from my external HD (and therefore will need Leopard).
- Wait for my dad to bring me the Leopard Install DVD (he'll be there next Sunday, 29th of June) from which I will be able to re-install Leopard.
Now I really do not know what is the problem - and if re-installing the OS will solve anything. There is still this strange Hard drive error - any idea if 1. that is the cause of the problem 2. what it means 3. If I need to fix it 4. how do I do that ?
Thanks for all your advice and time ,
#CharlesYour idea, Simon, seems best in my case. Now just out of curiosity - you say that I can recover all my files once I get back to Leopard using Time Machine, but will I also recover preferences/settings, from system preferences to application settings ? My question really is : is there anything I will not be able to recover ?
Anyways, now on to you adsfushi72. You say I need to get my "important files off the hard drives" - you mean I need to back them up in case my hard drive is broken and will need to be re-formatted in the process of re-installing, right ? Well the entirety of it is backed up on another, external hard drive, using Time Machine. The last backup was about 17 minutes before the problem appeared so all I could lose in the process is a few lines of text I typed in between. I love Apple ...
And how about safe/verbose modes ? What exactly are they ? I've used safe mode on a PC before, but I don't know how to start up in that mode on a Mac, what it exactly does or is, how to handle it, and why I would do that right now - I'm not saying I don't feel like doing it, I just want to know what information it could give me or in what way(s) it could help solve my problem. Same applies to verbose mode.
Lastly, a little update : Now when I start up my MacBook I see the Flashing "?" on a folder, which means it can't find a system folder to boot from - right ? So then I start up with alt/option pressed - and it does not detect any drive. When I insert the Mac OS X install Disk is only sees that. Is the invalid sibling link of my hard drive causing it to be unusable the system to boot from or what ?
The weirdest part is that now the hard drive seems to be absent. Before, it was there but I couldn't boot from it - since it seems to be damaged -, but now it doesn't even recognize or see it anymore. It seems the repair attempt is what made it change that way ... anyways thanks for all your ideas .
