Question

I'll correct my typos here...
When I updated my ipad2 to the IOS system all aps updated and worked except for PAGES and NUMBERS.  They always show up in the list as aps that need an update, however the never leave that category and do not function.  I paid $10 each for them and wish I could get them to work.  any suggestions?

Answer 1

Think about the basics.    you are using the same apple I'd for the update?  have use mixed in apps from any other apple id?   No existing numbers or pages docs open, or print jobs pending?
What happens when you select update in the app store?  I think these are pretty big files, so you are doing the app update using a wifi connection?
If you are doing an 'update all', try updating that one specific app, not any others.  See if you get any kind of error message.
Lastly, save any important docs or spreadsheets somewhere, then delete the app entirely , then try the redownload again.
