HT4059 My purchased ibook has been in a "downloading" state for two days, on both my library, and in the store. Any solutions?

My purchased iBook is stuck in a downloading state. Any solution?

Thank you. I know you're all users and not official Apple tech support, but I also know that the results of these discussions make their way up to search engines, and that Apple has to be aware that the issues discussed here happen.
As for the link to contact the iTunes support, I have already used that. I have a "ticket number" in their system, and have signed up for Apple to call me tonight after work. I was on hold with them yesterday for about 40 minutes, but had to hang up when my children's doctor called (they are both sick).
I was just venting, in the hopes that my venting would find others in the same troubled spot and we could share our frustratons together.
Thanks for trying to help and for listening.

    Have you tried restarting the router or checking your location settings are correct.
    Do you have any other problems with the Apple TV.

    Thanks LN.
    I tried.  It would not download.  A drop down notice said an error had occurred and to return to the purchase page; which I have done on numerous occasions.  (What I am to do on the purchase page I am not sure, other than to click on purchases and see that the same iPhoto download is available.  By the way, this was not purchased.  It just showed up with two other items free items, which did download nicely.)

  • HT4623 I have an ipad mini.  When I tried to update my apps many of them have been showing a "waiting" message for two days and I cannot open the app or delete the app.  Any ideas?

    I have an ipad mini.  I did an app update and now many of them have been showing a "waiting" message for two days and I cannot open the app or
    delete the app.  Any ideas?

    Double tap the Home button to bring up the multi-tasking bar...tap & hold any app until they all start to wiggle...tap the red minus sign to remove every app shown. Tap the Home button when finished. Try to delete the app now.

  • New iPhone 6 Plus has been "downloading" my photos from iCloud for two days now. Is this normal? If not, any advice?

    I recently upgraded from iPhone 5s to iPhone 6 Plus. When I go to view my photos, all of them are blank and at the bottom, it says "Downloading..." It has been this way for two days, but hasn't really downloaded any of my photos yet. Does it normally take this long? Is there anything I can do to speed it up?

    IF you are getting no messages period - not just no iMessages - then it is very likely a carrier issue. It is AT&T and not the phone. SMS travels via the carrier wave used to make phone calls - iMessages use data and go through Apple servers as you know
    If you are getting no messages at all - then I wonder if your cell service is ok or if you are in an area of strong signal - then does your SIM card need to be looked at

  • Video purchase has disappeared from my iTunes library and from the store.

    I have recently discovered that a video which I had purchased from the iTunes store about 2 years ago (Leonard Cohen's "Closing Time") has disappeared from my iTunes library. I did not delete it, and I have not had any computer issues which required backup. The purchase is still listed in my iTunes account, but other than that it is as if the whole download never happened. It appears that the store no longer sells the video, and when I "reported" the problem on the account page it was if I was talking to myself ! To keep things simple I took the position that I wanted to repurchase the video, but the Apple representative offered me a credit. When I refused that as a solution, saying I wanted him to tell me how I could repurchase the specific video, one which I owned, he backed off and ultimately said that he was going to submit the matter for investigation, and that I should get back in touch with Apple after a few weeks. (This has brought all my conspiracy thinking tendencies to the surface !) Has anyone else had a similiar experience with a purchased item disappearing for no apparent reason ?

    Today i went to add a bunch of movies to my wife's iPad. I realized she had not seen The Book of Eli so i went to add it but it was missing. Same story as above. I have not moved the file, or deleted it. It is just missing from my USB HDD where all my movies are. iTunes store no longer sales the movie.
    I can see them stop selling movies... but how did it just get removed from my USB HDD????

    I am neither rude or violent under ordinary circumstances but you have pushed me beyond my limit and hurt me very much.
    I have been unable to view or save to my pictures folder any ages from any websites all.
    When I click on an image to enlarge it as I always do so I can save it to my pictures folder, fire fox says loading and never loads.
    This is a brand new problem. I have tried everything you xxx suggest including going to fire fox safe mode and using about:config go no avail.
    You people are total xxxx for proving neither phone support or online help. Whenever, I try to chat online, you xxx say we are closed.
    As I said above, I am not violent. ''balance of this paragraph deleted''
    ''deleted'' in return for the grief, pain, and hurt you have caused me and for keeping me up all night long suffering with this sick problem and also for being such xxx as to provide no way to get in touch with you directly.
    I am wholly honest and never lie and always keep my promises. And I solemnly promise to ''deleted'' for the agony you have been causing me.

    I am going through the same thing! It is so annoying. We did have some access my son's account and changed his password but now when he tries to make purchases it says "Your account ID has been disabled". I sent a message to support and am waiting a reply. Their suggestions for changing the password does not work at all!!

    Go to the local Apple store and purchase a refurbished replacement.
    If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
    Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
    ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5s. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
    You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
    To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
    iPod Service Support and Costs
    iPhone Service Support and Costs
    iPad Service Support and Costs
    There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task. Start with Google to search for these.

  • My safari browser has been hijacked by so called in text advertising on both my iPad and MacBook Pro and I can't get rid of it.

    Both my iPad 4 and MacBook Pro are affected - if I turn off JavaScript the problem goes but then I can't access gmail etc.  I have deleted all cookies and web data and it keeps coming back. Words are highlighted green and annoying little pop up ads.  How can I get rid of this?

    Please read this whole message and be sure you understand all of it before doing anything. Back up all data before making changes to your settings.
    Unlock the Network preference pane, if necessary, by clicking the lock icon in the lower left corner and entering your password. Open the DNS tab again and change the server addresses to the following:
    8.8.8.8
    8.8.4.4
    That's Google DNS. Click OK, then Apply.
    In Safari, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    and confirm. If you’re using another browser, empty the cache. Test. Any difference?
    Notes:
    1. If you lose Internet access after making the above change to your network settings, delete the Google servers in the Network preference pane, then select the TCP/IP tab and click Renew DHCP Lease. That should restore the original DNS settings; otherwise restore them yourself.
    2. I’m not advocating Google or anything else as a DNS provider; the server addresses are offerred merely for testing purposes. There may be privacy and technical issues involved in using that service, which you should investigate personally before you decide whether to keep the settings. Other public DNS services exist.
