How do I reset an inbuilt iPad app. i.e. App Store?

How do I reset the "app store" app as I keep getting notifcation of an update when there isn't one?

Have you got any apps from other accounts on your iPad, not just the currently logged in one ?
You could try closing the App Store app completely : from the home screen (i.e. not with App Store 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the App Store app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • I am very confused. When I wanna to update my apps in app store, it shows the account which is my iPhone one is not my iPad one. how can I reset to my iPad account?

    I am very confused. When I wanna to update my apps in app store, it shows the account which is my iPhone one is not my iPad one. how can I reset to my iPad account?

    And I am very confused by your query. Your iTunes account is the same on all devices - unless of course you have multiple accounts to begin with.
    If you do have another Apple ID that you use for the iPad purchases, you can sign out of the account that is on the iPad in Settings>Store.
    Perhaps a few more details from you could clear up the confusion???

  • HT1212 How do I reset passcode when ipad is disabled

    how do I reset passcode when Ipad is disabled

    Restore, if iTunes will let you.  Everything except the password will be restored.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  Be forewarned that it takes a long time.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

    Hi please how can I transfer purchases from the app store on Mac to my iPad . I downloaded  keynotes , numbers, pages and others and will want to have them on my I pad thanks.

    Apps that are written for the Mac OS cannot be used on iOS devices, such as the iPad. You can purchase the iOS versions of some of these apps in the iTunes App Store.

  • HT204266 How can I find the top 300 games in each category on iPad App Store?

    From iPhone Apps Store I could go to each category and find the top 300 games, how could I find the top iPad games in each category in iPad Apps Store? Thanks!

    i downloaded it already but it  should have the iTunes U App in my homepage as a shortcut. now, it doesn't have this icon in my apps pages. when i need to use it, i have to open the App store and search it out every time. For example,  after downloaded the Facebook App, it would have a FB App in my homepage. my Question is I DON'T HAVE THE ITUNES U App IN MY HOMEPAGE NOW. T___T do you have any method to get it in my homepage. 
    anyway thank you for your link.

  • How do I switch off the Genius for iPad App Store?

    How do I turn off the Genius for iPad App Store. Its recomendations are very poor.

    I don't believe there's a way to "turn it off", per se. Can you not just not tap the Genius button? Unless I'm missing something, that's the only way you see Genius recommendations in the iPad's App Store app.
    BTW, questions about the iPad will generally get the quickest and most applicable responses if posted in the iPad forums.

  • How do I get the numbers ipad app to plot a graph of dates against values, where the most recent date is on the right of the graph, but the most recent date is at the top rather than bottom of the rows in the table?

    How do I get the numbers ipad app to plot a graph of dates against values, where the most recent date is on the right of the graph, but the most recent date is at the top rather than bottom of the rows in the table?
    Also how can it be a line graph without plotting a circle at each value?
    Thanks this is very frustrating

    Make a copy of the table and produce your Line chart or Bar chart from the copy. Sort the copy into the order you want to see in your chart.
    Alternately you could use a Scatter Chart...

    how do i reset password on ipad without total reset?

    You don't.
    You will need to restore your iPad from the same computer that you most recently synced to.

    If you can't do the restore then you will need to try recovery mode.

  • How do i reset a used ipad given to me as a christmas gift.  i  am unable to finish activation becau se the previous owner's gmail account still shows

    How do I reset a used ipad given to me as a gift?  I am unable to finish activation because I have no previous owner's information?

    Settings, general, erase all content and settings.
    if the person has iOS7 on that device and it's activation locked then you'll need the apple ID of the previous owner to fully wipe it. So if you can't wipe it you'll need that previous owner to give you their apple ID or to unlock it for you.
    If you can't contact them or if they can't unlock it, try to get your money back because without that info you can't fully erase that ipad, and it's unfortunately possible that the device they sold you wasn't theirs to sell.

  • I got a iPad mini from the uk. I have just moved to Australia, and I can't purchase and Australian app. How do I change from the uk App Store to the Australian App Store?

    How do I change my iPad App Store from the uk to the Australian site?

    Unless you purchased the iPhone direct from Apple in the UK and paid full price either on line or In an Apple Store then it will be locked to a UK Carrier and only that carrier can arrange unlocking
    It is unlikely that the iPad is similarly locked as most are sold carrier free unless specifically purchased from a UK carrier as part of a packaged deal involving a subsidy on the price of the iPad ( not very likely but they do exist )
