How to fix an app that is stuck

Hello,
i play a game called happy fish. there was an update so I clicked to do the update. Once the update was done, the icon for the app was missing. It still lists in the purchased and updated apps. It doesn't list in the notifications area now. If you go to the purchased apps, it shows the open button. Nothing happens if I tap it. I Can't remove it or reinstall it since it won't respond. I tried to sync it with my computer but the sync keeps adding it from iPad to the computer. Any idea what I can do to restore the app so I can keep playing this game?
thanks!

How to fix a shuffle that is stuck on repeat

how to fix a shuffle that is stuck on repeat

Are you sure you have a shuffle? There is no "repeat" setting on a shuffle, unlike other iPods, such as the nano.
The only reason a single song would repeat on a shuffle, is if you have a playlist with only one song, and you have selected that playlist using VoiceOver (or there is only one song on the shuffle).

How to fix Adobe App Manager error code -60 Download appears corrupt but only for Photoshop CS6 app

How to fix Adobe App Manager error code -60 Download appears corrupt but only for Photoshop CS6 Creative Suite Cloud App. Many attempts were made to install Photoshop CS6 with Adobe Application Manager without success. Every other Creative Suite Application was successfully downloaded. I keep getting Installation Failed when attempting the Photoshop install. How does one correct this?

Thanks Jeff! So, it totally appears as if it was a network issue. The corporate network where I work is quite likely the culprit. Where I was thrown off is that since I have admin rights on my computer, I can install software. But using Adobe Application Manager to install Adobe software wasn't working. And to make matters worse, there didn't appear to be any way to install Acrobat Pro for Mac without using AAM. The workaround that I used previously was to install the trial versions of Adobe software, and then just register them using my username and password. But the workaround for being able to install everything using AAM was to bring my computer home and download from my home network.

I have a spelling app that is stuck on the screen - it doesn't have any way to close it out, and when I split the screen and go to "Finder" to remove it, it says that it can't, because the program is still open. Please help.

Paul,
I'm sure this is the correct answer, but just switched to Apple, so am just an apple seed at this point! :~)
How do I get to the Apple Menu?
Thanks!

App that is stuck n pending mode

I have an app that is stuck in download mode it will not open or I'm not able to delete it. What do I do?

If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.

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.

Can someone tell me how to get my apps that are on my ipad to appear on my TV using Apple Tv

Can someone tell me how to get my apps that are on my IPad to be viewed on my Apple TV?

Welcome to the Apple Community Coachcad.
Basic AirPlay: Assuming both devices are on the same network and that AirPlay is not turned off on the Apple TV, then simply tap on the screen when you are watching content you wish to stream to your Apple TV, then tap the airplay icon that appears in the control bar, choose the Apple TV from the menu that appears.
Mirroring: When displaying the content you wish to mirror on the iPad 2 (or better), iPad Mini, iPhone 4S (or better), swipe from the bottom of the screen, tap the AirPlay icon and choose your Apple TV from the list of devices (iOS 7 or better) or double tap the home button (quickly) and swipe the bottom row of apps to the right to reveal the playback controls, tap the AirPlay icon and select your Apple TV from the list of available devices (pre-iOS7)

How to fix iframe issue that displays XML values instead of formatted XML in IE11

The following sub.jsp file shows the formatted XML properly as expected when is opened directly:
<% response.setContentType("text/xml"); %>
<book>
<chapter1>chapter 1</chapter1>
<chapter2>chapter 2</chapter2>
</book>
IE11 shows the result as below which are colored and can be collapsed or un-collapsed:
<book><chapter1>chapter 1</chapter1><chapter2>chapter 2</chapter2></book>
But if the sub.jsp is opened in an iframe from the below main.html, it only shows the values of the XML in the iframe:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="ISO-8859-1">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
<title>Insert title here</title>
</head>
<body>
<iframe src="sub.jsp"></iframe>
</body>
</html>
The iframe shows only the XML values, i.e., chapter 1 chapter 2 in IE11. This issue does not happen in IE8.
I appreciate to your if you know how to address this issue.

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 can I use apps that I have purchased from Apps Store for Mac on my iPad2?

how can I use apps that I have purchased from Apps Store for Mac on my iPad2?

Thanks, varjak, it is too easy to fall into use of jargon assuming everyone understands what it means.
One additional point in all of this, not all "iDevice" apps run on every "iDevice". Some are customized for a specific device, or class of devices such as the iPod/iPhone with their smaller screen. Others for just the iPads for their larger screens. So the user needs to be sure they are getting an app that will work on their specific device.
And to Phoneboone, you do need to purchase the app again if it is for a different class of equipment. When you are looking at apps such as iWorks for the Mac and iWorks components for the iPad, the iPad versions are very inexpensive. Pages is only $10 (US) which is really cheap for such a good word processor that reads and saves in the MS Word format.
Anyway, search for what you need and just enjoy the convenience of so many options for apps.

HT1349 How do I delete apps that I do not want on my device anymore?

How do I delete apps that I do not want on my device anymore?

DELETING APPS
Touch the app and hold your finger down until all the apps start to jiggle. You will see a circled "x" in the upper left corner. Tap it to delete an app. When done press the Home button.
You cannot delete any pre-installed iOS app.
If there is No 'X' on any apps you have Downloaded... then check in Restrictions... Settings > General > Restrictions > Deleting Apps = Off / On
If the app is in iTunes, then you delete the app in iTunes (Select the App and Press Delete on your Keyboard). If you then sync with your iDevice, the app will also be deleted from your iDevice.
