HT203167 App upgrades and install keeps saying waiting but nothing happens

I have an touch ipod. Since getting the new ios6 software my app ungrades and downloads are not working. It keeps on saying "waiting" on my home screen but never actually starts to install it. Oh and since getting ios 6 it doesnt prompt me for account nr.

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 device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered.
If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.

Downloading from App Store says Waiting but nothing happens - OS X Mavericks

Hi all,
I am trying to download the OS X Mavericks through App Store but all it says is Waiting. There is no way I can reset the download or start again. Am running OS X 10.8.5 on a MacBook Pro late 2009. Have checked and know that my laptop is fully compatible.
Troubleshooting:
- Relaunched App Store application, same issue
- In the Application folder, I have OS X Mavericks which is a App Store Download file. This is 208KB big. When trying to delete that, it says that this application is in use by another app.
- Deleted this App Store Download file, emptied Trash
- Tried again to download Mavericks from App Store. Still says Waiting. I have tried for several days with the laptop connected to internet and still nothing happens.
Any ideas?

Latest updates.
I have been talking with Apple Support and they told me that there is a huge queue for people trying to download. So far you have to wait 860 minutes (14,4 hours) before it will start to download.
Issue is that I have been waiting for 5 days.

HT1632 My ipod seems to be stuck in a "Loop" as my nike+ tries to download, just keeps saying, "downloading" but nothing happens, runs my battery down. What can I do?

My ipod seems to be "stuck" downloading of workout information to Nike+. Ipod keeps saying it is downloading but doesn't complete download, runs my battery down and my computer doesn't now recognize my ipod and I get "error" message (2005). What can I do to fix this problem?

I suggest try getting it back to your stock iOS and forget about jailbreaking.

HT3702 I keep attempting to make a in app purchase and it keeps saying payment declined although I have plenty of funds when I check my account. What can I do?

I keep attempting to make a in app purchase and it keeps saying payment declined although I have plenty of funds when I check my account. What can I do?

I assume that you are trying to use a debit card ? If it is then I don't think that they are still accepted as a valid payment method in all countries - from this page :
You may be able to use other payment types in your country, like debit and Maestro cards
which implies that they are not accepted in all countries, and there have been a number of posts about them being declined.
For a card to have a chance of being accepted it needs to be registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, and have been issued by a bank in the country where you and your iTunes account are. If it is then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes Support (these are user-to-user forums) and see if they know why it's being declined (but you might not be able to use a debit card) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management

Mountain lion keeps saying downloading but nothing ever happens. What do i do?

mountain lion keeps saying downloading but nothing ever happens. What do i do?

Hey cwicke11,
Try installing mountain lion in a new user. It will install on all users anyways.
To create a new user click >System Prefrences>Users & Groups(Or Accounts)>Unlock the lock in the lower left hand corner and click the plus above it. Name the user anything you want you can get rid of that user later.
Just log into new user and open the App store. Sign in with your Apple ID and go into the "Purchases" tab at the top. Download Mountain Lion from there and you should be good.

InDesign trial download - Adobe Applications manager keeps quitting unexpectedly.
You can download directly if using a different browser also fails.if you follow all 7 steps you can directly download a trial here: http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cc-direct-download-links.html and activate with your serial number. if you have a problem downloading, you didn't follow all 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies. The most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com), failure to obtain that cookie results in an error page being displayed after clicking a link on prodesigntools.com.

I am trying to finish downloading a free app.
I already agrred to the terms.
the next says Download Now but nothing happens when I press the OK button

Hi helpcmo,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your free app isn't downloading, first try restarting the iPhone:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Next, you may want to verify whether the issue is due to the iTunes Store connection:
Can't connect to the iTunes Store

If the behavior persists, try the remaining steps in our iPhone assistant:

All the best,

IPad apps show waiting but nothing happening? Anyone know why

Ipad3 apps show waiting but nothing is happening does anyone know why or what to do

This can happen from time to time. Something is clogging the download queue on your iPad. See if one of these suggestions helps you get this sorted out.
1. Tap the "waiting" icon and see if you can pause it. If it does pause, then tap it again and see if it will resume. If that works, repeat the same steps for each "waiting" icon.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. 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.

Hi Rajvidya Das,
Do the following, then try again:
1.     Close all open apps: Double click on the Home key and then swipe up on each of the thumbnails that appear above the open app icons
2.     Sign out of the iTunes store: Settings>iTunes & App Store, click on your Apple/iTunes ID, then sign out
3.     Check Settings>Safari, and make sure that "Block Cookies" is not set to "Always". If it is, change it to either of the other two options
4.     Make sure you do not have Restrictions turned on. If they are turned on, make sure that access is allowed for Safari, iTunes Store, Installing Apps, and Deleting Apps
5.     Reset your device (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Silver Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the Home screen redisplays sign back into iTunes and try again
Cheers,
GB
