  • How do I fix Apps that failed to download, just says "waiting"

    I have three apps that are on screen with a grey icon and a download progress indicator. They all say "waiting" and have been like this or 2 days. How can I fix them?
    Any help appreciated, I'm new to iOS and I'm stumbling a bit.
    Thanks.

    Try a couple things.......first, reboot your iPad.  Press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME tiem for at least 10 seconds (ignore the red slider to shut down) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad will restart.
    Sometimes, the App Store on iPad can get confused.  Try downloading a free app (you can delete it later if you don't want it) and then see if that get's your waiting apps to download.

  • How do you install apps that says waiting

    How do I install apps that say waiting that wont budge

    If the apps are downloaded from the App Store, connect to WIFI network and click on the app, make sure your iPhone is charging and keep moving the screen so it wont go on stand by.
    When it says loading and you see the bar loading you can just leave your iPhone alone and wait until it's downloaded.

  • How do I delete apps that I've downloaded that are duds?

    How do I delete apps that are duds?

    Thanks JimHDK. I forgot to mention these duds are in my history of apps. The duds take up a lot of the listings and i'd like to no longer see them (for re-open or use).  I do understand and use the feature you mentioned.

  • How do you restore apps that were deleted off of computer?

    I had to have some work done on my MacBook; hard drive was completely full.  Now that it's back up and running, I have about 200 apps that show up as icons in my iTunes but aren't listed in Finder.  They files seem to be completely gone.  I've done a sync on my iPhone and iPad but now those apps were deleted off of those as well because iTunes couldn't find the files.  I thought I could just go to iTunes and re-download them, (the ones I've paid for would say that I've paid already and just download them again).  My problem is that the "Install" button or "Purchase" button that normally shows up beside the app icon in the store says "downloaded" and is dimmed not allowing me to download again.  How do I get my apps back??

  • How do I delete apps that don't have an X?

    I read where someone else asked how to delete apps and they were told to hold the app til it wiggled then click an X that would appear in the app corner.  Well.....there is no X in the corner of the app I want to delete (stocks).  I have no use for this app and hate the extra clutter.  Thanks for any help.

    If it is an app that is part of the Apple iOS install, you won't be able to remove it.
    If it is a 3rd party app it should have an X when tapped and held.
    Note you can also remove apps using the Apps tab in iTunes when the device is connected to your computer.

  • How do you delete apps that you no longer want on your ipad COMPLETELY?

    My memory on my ipad is low.. and when you take a look at the apps in the store from recent ones i tried out.. they are still there.. how do you get rid of them ?
    i literally have 4 apps on my ipad. with only 5 songs 30 pictures ... why is the memory so bogged down?? ive seen many peoples devices and they have way more stuff than i do.. someone helppp??

    You cannot delete/remove apps from your App Store purchases. They will remain there forever but they are not necessarly still on the device. You can hide your past purchases but need to do so using iTunes.
    See: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4919
    As was mentioned, just because they are showing in your purchases, it does not mean that they are on the device. If you have deleted them from the device and are no longer on the device, they are not using any of your device's storage. You'l' have to look elsewhere to see what is taking up the space you are missing.
    Check Settings>General>Usage, then tap on Show all Apps to get an idea of what is physically on the device (Apps, Music, Photos, Videos, etc.)

  • HT201304 How do you report apps that are incorrectly rated?

    There is an app called 'Guides for Pokémon X and Y - Videos, Walkthroughs and More!' available on the iOS app store. It is rated 4+ but has adult language (f**k). I tried contacting the vendor but never heard back.

  • How can I play apps that I've downloaded with iTunes on my Windows laptop?

    I have downloaded the itunes for 64 bit windows, as my laptop is running windows8.1.

Am i doing something wrong or just wasting my time, Thank you in advance

    Apps that you download via iTunes are designed for iDevices (iPod, iPhone, iPod). They will not work on any traditional computer.

  • How do you update apps that where purchased using different iTunes accounts?  I get a cannot connect to iTunes message and it won't accept the password even after you change it.

    Both my iPad and iPhone have the same problem.  I have purchased apps with three different accounts. I understand I will need to use the original acct to do the update but every time it asks for the password I put it in and get a message that I cannot connect to iTunes store. I have even had the password reset and it still will not connect on the upgrade.  But I can sign in with that account and purchase new apps i am loading a free one now just to make sure. So what is that about?  Please do not tell me I have to also use the original password!  We have reset them so many times that there is no way to remember the original one used at time of purchase a year and 1/2 ago.  Please help. I have also upgraded to the iCloud thinking this would solve the problem but it still exists.

    I use only one Apple ID and only one ID. I did have to change the password at one point but I had no issues at all with updating apps after I changed the password.
    If you can download new apps with the ID that you changed the password for, I would think that you will be able to update apps associated with that ID as well.
    Did you try restarting the iPad after signing out of the one account and then sign in to the other account/accounts?

  • How do you fix lines that come up on an iPod Touch (5th Gen) once it turns on after running out of battery?

    This has happened to me about 4 times now. I just got a brand new iPod touch (5th Gen) after replaceing my 4th gen iPod. I havent had it for a month, so its still brand new. The only thing is that when the iPod runs out of battery it turns off (duh) but it doesnt turn back on when you plug it in to charge. When I noticed that the iPod doesnt turn on, and I hit the power button, lines appear on my screen. They are lines that run up and down the screen from left to right. I try factory resets, setting resets, restoring my iPod. But this issue keeps coming up. I honestly dont know what to do. This thing is brand new and its acting up on me. Should I take it to my apple store? Should I just put up with it. I have tried everything and at this point I dont know what to do anymore. Please help!!

    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    Since you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem
    If the iPod is defective within warranty (you indicate it is) and not abused Apple will exchange it on the spot.
