How do I fix an app that hung at "installing."

I have a 1st gen iPad. When attempting to install the app "Tunnel Town," I purchased from the app store. No icons ever appeared on my home screen. It is not installing in the Game Center. However, the app store still shows "installing," after 2 days. I have signed in and out of the app store. I have restarted the iPad.

Did you reset the iPad? Hold the power & home buttons until the screen goes black (ignoring the slider). Release the buttons and let the iPad boot up.

  • How can I fixed an app that says An Error Has Occurred and it does not reinstall because the download was damaged?

    I don't know why but I can't download Borderlands GOTY. I tried and it says this product is damaged please reinstall borderlands GOTY. I tried once again and it said the same thing. Then I tried a third time and now it won't install. It just says reinstall app in the Purchases list.

    Restore it with a TimeMachine backup if you have used it previously.
    If not delete all references to it, empty the trash, clear browser history, try a different browser.
    Maybe try a faster internet connection to successfully download.

  • How do I fix an app that keeps crashing

    App keeps crashing

    Close app by double-tapping the home button, then swiping upward on the app window (not the smaller icon) off the screen.
    Then reset: hold down the home button along with the power button until you see the Apple, then let go.

  • How do I fix Registry Errors that occured during Install of iTunes latest version?

    Hardware/Software info:
    Acer Aspire lapton 5535-5050
    Vista Home premium OS
    2 GB Ram
    250 GB Sata HDrive
    AMD Athlon X2 Dual Core QL-64 bit processor
    I recently installed the latest version of iTunes vers. 11.x per the iTunes update process. Afterwards
    itune 11 worked ok aside from the totally different startup or Store page looking so different.  Later
    I tried to burn a disc from my current iTunes Library and found out my CdRom drive had been disabled
    due to registry errors during the iTunes update process.  The end result was to get my CdRom drive
    back in operation, I had to due a System Restore (using Vista home premium) back to a date before
    the iTunes update.
    It was a successful Restore and my CdRom drive is now working again but iTunes will no longer run
    due to missing files not found during attempts to start iTunes.  It tells me to reinstall iTunes again.
    1. Do I Uninstall the partial copy of iTunes listed on my Program list? (appears to iTunes 10.07.21)
       first or just do an install of iTunes 11.x from the Apple iTunes web site?
    2. What is the risk of the new iTunes causing Windows registry errors and disabling my CdRom again?
    3. What is the risk of other registry errors from the new version of iTunes?
    Brad

    I had the same problem after installing version 11, my CD/DVD drive was disabled/uninstalled completely.
    I restored version 10.7 to get my iTunes functionality back using a backup i created before the upgrade.
    Unfortunately, not being a PC wiz, I had to contact DELL support to fix the problem as a simple reinstall of the drivers failed to fix the problem. I am fortunate to still have hardware support as the PC is only 7 months old. DELL thankfully were fully aware of the problem and deleted the "Upper & Lower Filters" from my registry ("how to" available from a Google search for anyone confident enough to do this alone).
    I still get the request to reinstall iTunes software on starting itunes, but for now I just click OK and move on and iTunes works fine (using version 10.7). I will probably reinstall 10.7 after doing another backup, but for now I don't need to and can do without the added grief.
    DELL said this was a common problem that is easily fixed, but as yet are unaware of any further issues.
    I have an Dell Inspiron 620, running on Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit OS with 6GB Ram
    Hope this helps, if nothing more than assuring you that you are not alone.

  • How do I fix Creative Cloud to show ALL my apps that I have installed ?

    Here my specs : Windows 7 Pro 64 bit ● 10GB DDR3 RAM ● Intel Core i7 ● AMD Radeon HD 5700 Series
    Here my story :
    One day, little Creative Cloud said it had an update to be installed on itself. Possibly taking it from version 1.7 to 2.0 or something. I clicked on update. Creative Cloud started downloading and once it was done it said update complete. I clicked on finish or something. Once that happened, it disappeared completely. Gone from taskbar, Window closed and shortcut gone ! I looked into the Creative Cloud folder, in the Adobe folder and there were two folders : Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Creative Cloud_2.7.0.413. I then went into the Adobe Creative Cloud folder and double opened the application therein. It opened the Creative Cloud desktop app BUT showed it had an update just as before for itself. I AGAIN clicked on update, and then it said "Error 50" , unable to update. I searched around and somewhere on the forums it said I must download adobe cloud and reinstall it. I did that and ever since that dreadful day, little Creative Cloud desktop app doesn't want to show ALL my installed apps anymore. It simply shows only 2 !
    This is what I have : Photoshop, Dreamweaver, Flash Professional, Media Encoder, Fireworks. What it only shows in Creative Cloud desktop app : Flash Professional, Dreamweaver.
    What I tried doing :
    1.) Re-installing the Adobe Creative Cloud desktop app.
    2.) Changing the directory settings for APPS and pointing them to the actual location of the installed apps.
    3.) Deleting or renaming the "opm.db" file.
    4.) YES, I RESTARTED MY PC !!!
    What I want to do :
    1.) Receive a fix that will make ALL my installed apps show.
    2.) Find out what the hell the difference is between the concept of having TWO versions of the same program installed BUT getting updates for BOTH like "Adobe Photoshop CC" and "Adobe Photoshop CC 2014". I installed the Adobe Photoshop CC this year almost 2 months ago for example. Then CC told me there is an app update and that got me Adobe Photoshop CC 2014. Now I have two versions of the above listed programs... Why doesn't CC just UPDATE the Adobe Photoshop CC, rename and list ONLY Adobe Photoshop CC 2014 in the end ?
    What I do not want : RE-DOWNLOAD OR RE-INSTALL ALL MY INSTALLED APPS ! This not only will cost me a lot of internet bandwidth but also a considerable amount of time. There must be a simple fix as all files are in place ! I can launch all apps individually and they are working both the "" versions and the 2014 ones.
    My question : How do I fix Creative Cloud to show ALL my apps that I have installed ?

    Hi alextz11,
    The email in the forum does not reflect any Creative Cloud order. Please follow the steps in
    Locate the C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE directory and rename it to OOBE_OLD
    Download and reinstall the Creative Cloud Application from https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud.
    You can also consult : http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/install-apps.html
    Hope it helps your issue.

    How do you fix an ipod that has a black screen and it turns on but when it turns on the screen gets a lighter black but you still can't see the apps or anything?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup. See:

  • How do I fix bug/malware that keeps bumping me from apps I'm using to App Store ads?

    How do I fix bug/malware that keeps bumping me from apps I'm using to App Store ads?  I have set privacy and Safari security to highest levels, have turned off ad tracking, and have done a hard reboot, but it still keeps happening.  The worst offender is the Washington Post app, but it also happens with the Salon app - in other words, apps that regularly update content.  Other utility and game apps are unaffected.  This happens only very occasionally from Safari.

  • When I disconnect my iphone 3gs(iOS) from computer, the device disappears from my itunes. This prevents me from doing a wireless sync. how do i fix it so that my device stays on itunes without having to plug it in all the time?

    When I disconnect my iphone 3gs(iOS) from computer, the device disappears from my itunes. This prevents me from doing a wireless sync. how do i fix it so that my device stays on itunes without having to plug it in all the time?
    it worked the first few times i did it but the next day after i closed out of itunes once, the device only appears when i plug in my phone.

    Whenever a menu choice is grayed out, that is because you have Restrictions turned on in Settings.  Be sure to turn it off.
    You are confusing an itunes store account with an icloud account.  You two can continue using the same ID for itunes (thus sharing purchased music, apps, etc.), but you really should have separate accounts (different IDs) for icloud, since an account is intended for one user to keep his/her devices in sync.
    To create a new icloud account, go to
    http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
    Then go to Settings>icloud and scroll to the bottom of the screen and tap Delete Account.  (have restrictions turned off)  That will disconnect the device from the account but will not delete data in icloud or other devices.  Then sign in using the new ID.

    Disney Mickey Mouse Vol. 1
    I just tried this on my iPhone 5 (iOS 6.1.0). I did an iTunes Store search for "Mickey Mouse"...
    After the search result:
    1. Panned over to "Disney Mickey Mouse Vol. 1"
    2. Tapped the icon
    3. Tapped on the right-facing arrow next to "Info"
    At this point nothing happened no matter how many times I tapped the right-facing arrow next to "Info"
    I then:
    1. Tapped the Search button at the top left which took me back to the initial search results.
    2. Tapped on "Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Vol.1" (a totally different title)
    3. Tapped on the right-facing arrow next to "Info"
    Then I was presented with the options dialog which includes "Gift"
    I then went back to:
    1. "Disney Mickey Mouse Vol. 1"
    2. Tapped the icon
    3. Tapped on the right-facing arrow next to "Info"
    At this point, I was now presented with the options dialog which includes "Gift"
    So in my case, going through the motions with a -different title-, then going back to  "Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Vol.1" fixed it for me.
