How to Update an App via Apple Store

I have Fireplace version 1.1 installed and it works fine on the iMac under OS X 10.6.6. Just noticed a new Fireplace version 1.2 at the Apple Store. The problem is when I click on the version 1.2 icon it say the application is Installed and there is no option to update. There is no link to a .dmg that can be downloaded and the developer's web page just sends you back to the Apple Store.
How do you update an application form the Apple Store?
Footnote: I really do not like the new Apple Store user interface.

A hassle but until they get the kinks out…
i agree but it worked. Apple did us no favors with the Apple Store user interface. It should
give you options. I really do not like the Apple Store doing the install with no user options
to stop.

If the downloads are stalled or "waiting" - try these suggestions.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.
If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.

ITunes keeps attempting to download a particular app when I update other apps via phone store

These errors don't happen all the time, but it happens enough that it's getting rather tiresome to work around it. Both of these problems happen when I am requested to update an app on my phone, or I try to download an app from the store on my phone. I'm not sure if it's two separate problems occuring at the same time, or one big problem with two symptoms.
Problem 1:
I receive a badge on my App Store that one of my apps requires an update or I want to download a new app. I go to the update tab and click on "Update" or click on "purchase." The password pop-up appears, but then closes and a new pop-up appears that says "Gif Boom and 22 other apps cannot be downloaded at this time." I click okay to close the notification, then click the button again, whereupon the password box appears, I fill it in and the download proceeds as should be expected.
I haven't had Gifboom on my phone for almost a year, and I have no idea why it's trying to update an app that isn't even on my phone.
Problem 2:
This occurs in conjunction with the previous problem, but doesn't always happen when the first problem occurs.
I go to download an update or new app, and as the new app or update is installing, a greyed out box for the app Shadow Age appears in the newest slot, labeled as "waiting." I downloaded the Shadow Age app last summer and deleted it after a few weeks. For some reason it keeps trying to redownload it onto my phone when I download an app or update. If I hold down the icon, the little black X doesnt appear. The only way to get rid of it is to reboot the phone.
Neither Gifboom nor Shadow Age are on my computer, so it is not trying to sync it from there. I have autosync turned off in iTunes on my computer, iCloud is turned off on my phone, and Automatic Downloads for Music and Apps is turned off on my phone. There is nothing that I can see that should be requesting my phone to download Gifboom, Shadow Age, or any of these other 22 apps.
Last resort is a backup and system restore as I have quite a few games on my phone that I don't want to lose saved data from, and I don't know if the backup will just backup the error as well.
I have seen similar posts saying that apps keep reappearing when syncing to a computer, but mine are coming from the iTunes store directly onto my phone.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, I did that and it is not listed there. Any other ideas?
You may want to try reorgnizing the iTunes library by clicking File, Library, Organize Library, then check Consolidate files and Upgrade to iTunes Media organization or Reorganize files in the folder iTunes Media.
You can also try re-creating your iTunes library and playlists.
Then delete the app, if it shows up in iTunes or the Mobile Applications folder again.
WTH.

Has anyone updated an app via the store only to have the app stay in Update Available status?

Uupdated the app called ChordProBuddy and the update remains in the ready to update status on my App Store Dock Icon and in the update window of the App Store. It will not go away after the download is completed.
Any Suggestions?

Thanks for the fast reply. I have done a restart and deleted the app. That resulted in not having the app and still having the problem. The vendor support was great. He sent me another app and I installed it and the app is now working but the "update " just stays there.

My mail app is not quitting and i need to update a app in apple store which is not letting me do because the mail app is in use

i try to quit it but it won't work just like the finder app that you can't close i need help

Open up the Activity Window - if there are bars with stop signs by them - that don't seem to be moving press the stops signs to stop what is going on.
If you can't open it or nothing is there - you may just have to power down.
I have had mail seem to be stuck so I can disconnect from the internet - so if I cant do a controlled shut down - I just power the system down by holding the power button down.

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.

What is a quick alternative to launching an enterprise DPS app if Apple Store rejects the App? We are under a major deadline and can't wait for Apple. We want to host the app elsewhere. How do we host our DPS app on our client's website?

Unless I misunderstand the question, you can't do what you're asking to do. Apple doesn't allow you to bypass their store and host public apps on a website. The exception is an enterprise app, which requires an Enterprise account with both Apple and Adobe. This type of enterprise app can be distributed only within the company. If that's what you want to do, you can learn more here:
Digital Publishing Suite Help | Creating viewer apps for private distribution
Distributing enterprise iOS viewer applications with Digital Publishing Suite | Adobe Developer Connection
Another option is to add the development app to several devices and use those for your demo.

I would like to inquire about how I could have my iPad 2 repaired or replaced. I bought it With a credit card via apple store website last June 19 of this year. At first, I already noticed a little white spot in the middle of the screen visible when the display on screen is dark. I thought this was okay. Now, My problem with it is that, it now has green discolorations at the center whenever the screen display is black or dark I.e. When a website's color is black or dark or whenever I go to the search interface.
I am from the Philippines.
Please attend to this inquiry as promptly as possible. I'm sorry I have to send it here since I cannot see any email or inquiry page on the apple website. I also cannot reach the toll free number on my mobile phone.
Thank you very much.

When I go to update my apps another apple ID comes up. I tried signing out and signing back in. How can I fix this?

Was that other apple id used to purchase/download the app? If yes you will need to use that apple id and password to update the app. http://support.apple.com/kb/he37

Thank you for your advice.
Actually, I am aware that the upgrade is implemented in 10.6.7. However, up until now I haven't been able to upgrade to Mac OS X 10.6.7, as I have software that is not yet compatible. So I wondered how to do it within 10.6.6? May be it is not possible? Anyway, this gave me a push to track the software I use for compatibility, and I found that an update for 10.6.7 now is ready for download, so then I will probably solve two issues at the same time. Takes a little work though. Thank you again for your advice.

How to exchange a new iphone 6 plus via apple store?

I brought a new iphone 6 plus via apple store, but the SIM card cannnot insert to the new iphone 6 plus and how to exchange a new one?

Go back to the store and ask them to exchange it. If you mean you bought it online, either find a local Apple Store, or call your country's AppleCare line for help.
What SIM card are you trying to insert? Are you sure it's the right size? Iphone 6 takes nano SIM size.
