How can I see app updates in iOS 6

Ever since a few months ago, I have been having issues with my iOS 6 iPhone.  Updating it is not an option, as it is a company device.  The numeral badge appears on the App Store icon from the home screen, and from any screen inside the App Store but the update tab.  When I click that tab, the 15 pending updates (and the badge) disappears.  It shows all apps as being up to date, even though I know they're not.
I'd have no problem updating each app by searching, but such is hard when the list will not display.  Many apps have broken through the update cycle, and I am unable to see which ones to update.  Given my 40+ apps, removing all and updating on the computer isn't a viable option either
Whats's the problem?

Close all apps in the back ground. Hold the power button untill the 'slide to power-off' appears. Now let go of the power button and press the home button untill the screen dissapears and warps you back to the home screen. Now, the cache is cleared.
You can also do this 'per-app'.
Enjoy...
P.S.: This works for ALL iPhone OS AND iOS devices, even for the original iPhone.

    I hear a lot of disk I/O from my iMac 1TB drive.  How can I see apps may be running in background?  Time Machine is not running.

    If you wnat to see the applications that are running, open the Activity Monitor application (it's in /Applications/Utilities). After opening it, select "All Processes" above "Show" in the toolbar, and you will see all the processes that are running.
    I/O errors often happen on a damaged hard drive. If you are receiving that error, you should make a backup with Time Machine or Carbon Copy Cloner as soon as possible and take your Mac to an Apple Store or reseller to get another hard disk.
    If the warranty is void, you can try installing it yourself, but note that there are some iMacs which are very difficult to have the hard drive replaced. Search the steps in iFixit > http://www.ifixit.com

  • How can I remove app updates in iTunes?

    I have an old Iphone 3G, version 4.2.1
    Playing in iTunes, I have downloaded some updates i didn't needed, synced, and now, my updated apps are not compatible anymore with my iOs.
    (apps like Facebook, Whatsapp, both purchased or freeware)
    So, my question is: how can I remove the updates that made some apps not compatible anymore with my software?
    Also, is there any possibility to transfer my iPhone contacts to my sim card?
    Many thanks in advance!
    Andra

    "how can I remove the updates that made some apps not compatible anymore with my software?"
    You cannot
    "Also, is there any possibility to transfer my iPhone contacts to my sim card?"
    No.  Iphone stores nothing to SIM.  You should be syncing contacts to your computer.

  • How can I see song lyrics in iOS 5.0?

    Before updating my iPad 2, I could see lyrics for the song playing just by touch the screen in "iPod" app (the screen in which the album cover appears). But now I can't see the lyrics at all, and I'm sure they're attached to the songs (I can see them in my iPod nano 5th; I sync the same songs between iPad and iPod). How can I do it now? Is there some way of seeing the lyrics, or the functionality was removed at all?
    And, of course, is there anyone else having this same problem?
    Thank you all =D

    This may be a bug for all that I know but I am too cynical to believe that.
    From everything that I have read, it appears as though Apple did remove the feature. What the reasons could be for that are beyond me. And I did find the paragraph that states that feature exists in the iPad. I copied this from the iPad User Guide for iOS 5. The free book that I downloaded in iBooks.
    "Display a song’s lyrics
    Display the album cover by tapping the thumbnail at the top of the screen. Lyrics appear if you’ve added them to the song using the song’s Info window in iTunes."
    However, who knows with Apple anymore. Case in point - Apple changed the wording on their website about multitouch gestures being one of the new features of iOS 5, a day or two after the update came out. They decided to release the feature to work on the iPad 2 only - even though the website promoted the feature as being one of the new features for the "iPad" for months leading up to the release - leading all users to believe that it would work on the iPad 1 as well. I don't know if you read any of those threads but the screaming is finally starting to die down on that one.
    My point is that even thought the guide says that the song lyrics works, I have not read of anyone that can confirm that it does. Maybe someone else will confirm that the feature is in the iOS, but I don't believe that it is. So for the time being - for me anyway - it is not a bug - but another "why did they do that" decision by Apple.

  • How can i see apps on appstore Only suitable apps for my device version?

    When I check apps on app store I want to see only the apps that I can download to my device. Because many apps require higher versions of ios. I have an original ipad and it can have only up to ios 5.1 so apps for ios 5.1 should appear to me. It is really boring to install all the time the apps and then have the error message. It is a very basic issue for users. How can Apple ignore millions of users suffering this?

    You don't need to waste time installing them.  Every app has in the "Information" section a "Compatibility" statement which will include the minimum iOS version required for it to run.
    You can also do a web search for online listings of older compatible apps, like http://www.findoldapps.com/

  • How can I see song lyrics in iOS 8?

    In the past I've been able to add lyrics to my music in iTunes and then see those lyrics in the music app after syncing my iPhone or iPod... There is an option in my setting to view lyrics which I have turned on and yet I can't see the lyrics I've added in the music app, how do I make it so I can see those lyrics?

    Please ignore my above post regarding Open IME.....!!! I had a WAV version of a song and a MP3 version of the song. It allowed me to add lyric ONLY when it was the MP3 version. When i was changing the IME it must have coincided with me changing format of song....hence why I thought it was IME!
    Advice to other users.....CHECK WHICH FILE YOU ARE DRAGGING INTO ITUNES....AND DON'T DO IT WHEN TIRED!! I have multiple versions of the songs and I didn't bother checking which was which. I now realise I could have saved myself a good few hours instead of messing about..lol!
    The other thing I did learn is that once you add lyric and click 'ok'...then you cannot alter it. I had to delete song from playlist...re-add...then add lyrics again. Not too sure why.... maybe a glitch...or maybe I'm just too tired.
    Anyway...I think the problem lies with the format of song you import into i-tunes as mentioned in a post above.
    Sorry I couldn't be of no assistance....am tired and i want to go to bed...lol

    Another thing to try - Turn the iPad Off & then back ON.
    If that doesn't work:
    •  Log out of your iTunes store account.  Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
    • Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
    • After restart, the Waiting should be gone.

    I'm on my iPad, so I don't know if this is the page with an actual download. I don't see a button, but assume that is because I  am on an iPad. It is in the DL section of Apple downloads.

  • How can I get App Updates in Notification Center?

    Hello,
    I am trying to get notified about App Updates from the notification Center. The App Store icon is not listed when I go to "Notifications" in System Preferences. I did see one article about it stating that if I disabled Spotlight in the "Startup .....(I cannot remember the word I saw in the article)" then they will not show in the Notification center. Can anyone help? Thank you.

    Try resetting the App Store.

  • How can I see apps on app store on ipad?

    I open the app store but can't see the apps and won't let me do anything

    I called apple hotline and was told it's "impossible" to purchase apps from different region outside of US. I tried to use my apple ID to purchase and came back the message saying my apple ID only valid in US region.
    So I tried to create another ID to register in different region. It appears I need another credit card number and address in that region in order to register and make purchase.
    I see they are selling iTunes card in Walmart. I wonder if I can buy that kind of card to use it in app store. If ..... if they sell that kind of card outside of US, can I have my friend purchase one there and use it in app store? I hope there is a way to work around this region issue. The rep I talked to know nothing and did not even try to get me a good answer for this.

  • HT204570 How can I see my photos in iOS organized by the faces I've identified on the Mac?  All of my devices are using the iCloud Photo Library.

    I want to be able to view my photos in iOS according to the faces I've identified in them on the Mac, but I can't seem to figure out how.  Any suggestions?

    On iOS, in the Photos app, use the search functionality (the magnifying glass, top right).  Once you click on the magnifying glass - you may need to wait a moment or two - you will see a list of suggested or recent searches.  You can type in a face name instead.  The results from the search will be all pics tagged with that name.
    You may have an issue with not all tagged pictures appearing in the search results, however.  Initially all appeared for me, but they no longer do.  There appears to be some issue with the reindexing of my picture data in the cloud - the search still returns folder names for folders which don't exist anymore.  Hopefully you won't have that to content with.

  • How can you see Software Update compliance breakdown by Client?

    I want to see a view in the Software Library that breaks down by client what is shown in the "All Software Updates" node.
    Basically, with SCCM 2012 you can see all the software updates and there compliance summary which is nice, however I can't find a way to see a detailed version of this that breaks this all down by client.  
    For example if I have a Software Update that is Required on 5, Not Required on 3, Installed on 4, and Unknown on 2 clients I want to know which specific clients make up those numbers. I want to know which clients are required, which are not required, which
    are already installed and which are unknown.
    There doesn't seem to be a view like this in SCCM 2012 and its very odd that it doesn't provide this look into the data.
    Am I missing something, can someone point me to the way to see this data quickly.

    I am aware of that view however that is just mapping the state number to a name for several different "TopicTypes". And the one you are point to is actually not for Software Updates Scan Status. The TopicType for a Clients Update Scans is 500,
    which has 0-3 only. 0 is supposed to be Unknown, 1 not-required, 2 required, and 3 installed.
    They set the status for an endpoint/update for 2 and 3 but I have several Unknown, and Not-Required and they don't write those rows to the database if they are in that state. 
    It seems when they are gathering data from the client the summarize everything, and one keep the specific rows for clients if they are required or installed, and they don't create a row for the other states. From some digging it looks like they stored this
    data in 2007, but dropped in in 2012.  
    Maybe it is to conserve space or something I don't know but its stupid. It would be nice if there was a hidden setting that would enable it to store these rows as the database is set to collect them, they just don't.
    FYI...
    For WMI Queries you can use SMS_StateInformation which maps to the v_StateNames.

  • TS1702 How do I update my apps via App Store on iTunes 11? I can't see the "update" button. Thank you.

    How do I update my apps via App Store on iTunes 11? I can't see the "update" button. Thank you.

    You can download updates to your computer's iTunes via the Check For Updates button at the bottom of the Apps section of your iTunes library. When they've been downloaded, and if you haven't already done so, connect the iPad to your computer and select it on the left-hand side of iTunes (if you don't have the left-hand sidebar showing then you can enable it via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), and on the Apps tab on the right-hand side clicking the Sync button at the bottom of it should install the relevant updates.
