HT4623 apps and updates are not downloading with IOS7 on iphone4S. Any suggestions?

When trying to update IOS7 to IOS7.4 it takes forever and does not download, but my biggest concern is that my fav apps are not updating either. They say "waiting" or are just grayed out on the phone. I have also tried to take out the apps and reinstall them but they still won't download.
I wish I had never installed IOS7. I don't see advantages and it just takes more memory on my phone.
I would appreciate any help.
Thank you,
C

Hello cdcor,
It sounds like you are unable to update or download apps. They appear to get stuck or otherwise become unresponsive. I have a few recommendations to try here. First, close all the open apps on the device:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that, sign out of your iTunes account in Settings > iTunes and App stores, and restart the phone and re test the issue:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the issue persists, I would next backup your device to iTunes, and restore it:

All the very best,

  • Apps updates are not downloading in iOS7

    I downloaded iOS7 on my iPhone 5 (Verizon) 32GB. I still have 14GB of free storage space.
    Few days ago I clicked in the app store and noticed 17 updates.
    I clicked on "Update all" and nothing was happening. I then clicked on each "update" button next to the apps and nothing happened.
    I have the blue circle that is rotating. It stops after a little while without updating the apps.
    The crazy thing I can install without problem new apps. The problems is related to existing one.
    I tried to find individual updates under purchased apps (remember the apps updates issues couple of month ago). Same issue.
    I click on resetting the networks, same issue.
    I tried to uninstall the app then reinstall it, same issue.

  • I bought two apps and they are not downloading, is the app store having a problem? (28/3/2012)

    What's a way I can find this out?

    turn your ipad off by holding the sleep wake button for 5 seconds and slide to turn off then turn it back on and the apps should be finished and if the apps didnt finish just redownload them

  • The new firefox 33.1 and 34 are not compatible with my school Blackboard account

    I have used Firefox since it was first introduced. I prefer it to MS Explorer. However the new Firefox, 33.1 and 34 are not compatible with my school Blackboard account, so I had to delete Firefox and use Explorer. I would prefer to use Firefox. Is an earlier version (Prior to 33.1) still available?

    It's been a few years since we have had many questions about Blackboard compatibility with Firefox, but overall the problems in that past had to do with either Blackboard not updating in a timely manner ''[which I don't think is the case any longer]'' OR the school wasn't running the latest version of Blackboard software ''[which considering the current state of many government budgets, may be the case now.]''.
    ''It appears that - http://www.blackboard.com/ - is a new or greatly modified website, as the bookmarks I have saved for reference pages on their website come as 404, so I can't find the information I have used in the past.''
    My advice is to install Firefox Portable ESR to your hard drive for use at that Blackboard website and continue to use Firefox 34 for other purposes. The "portable" version will instal and use a Profile that is totally separate from your regular Firefox installation - so you can have two separate Firefox versions installed without any problems.

    '''ESR''' stands for Extended Support Release.

  • My iWork (pages and keynote) are not communicating with the iCloud. I haven't changed anything and all of the sudden there is no sync happening.  My iCloud account is fine as i can create documents on my iPad and they appear on iCloud.

    my iWork (pages and keynote) are not communicating with the iCloud. I haven't changed anything and all of the sudden there is no sync happening.  My iCloud account is fine as i can create documents on my iPad and they appear on iCloud. However, when i change documents on my mac (documents that are supposed to be in the iCloud), the changes do not sync with my other devices nor with iCloud.  Even when i create new documents on my mac and save them to iCloud, all seems okay and i can access them from my mac, however they do not show up in the iCloud and i can't access them with my other devices.
    Most recent version of mountain lion updated over a month ago.  New iPad in use for over a month.
    thanks

    The same thing is happening to me, Mail was fine about an hour ago and now is rejecting correct password.  Typical when today I'm waiting some important emails!

    - Tyy resetting the iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Next, If they are opening by quickly closing, try downloading/install a new app.

    In itunes on your computer go to the itunes store which should be signed in with your Apple ID
    Select the purchased link from under the Quick Links section on the right.
    Navigate to what you purchased under music. Then you can redownload by clicking the cloud icon next to any item

  • HT4910 I just upgraded to 4s and when i backup my iCloud my apps and pics are not coming over?

    I just upgraded to 4s and when i backup my iCloud my apps and pics are not coming over?

    I'm assuming you have performed a restore from an icloud backup...
    Many users have lost photos while preforming a restore from backup or upgrading the iOS.   Recall, only photos in the camera roll are backed up to iCloud.  There is a way to turn backups for camera roll on/off, perhaps these users had camera roll turned off.
    See:
    Settings>icloud>Storage & Backups>Manage Storage,  tap the device's name and on the next screen, be sure Camera Roll is turned on.
    IMPORTANT...
    Photos should be regularly synced to a computer (like you store photos from a digital camera) using either USB via iTunes (on a mac use iPhoto or Aperture to move them to an album) or using photo stream.  If you have been doing that, then you can sync those photos back to your device.
    If you haven't been saving photos except relying on iCloud to store them in a backup, then that is risky, as many users have discovered.  I'm afraid I have no advice in this case - there is no "cure".
    As for apps, you could always download them again from the itunes store, without charge.  Look for the link to purchased apps, there you'll have a list of the ones you can download free.

  • App store updates are not showing

    Agreed. Since installing iOS 7 I seem to have to open the App Store before available updates show. I currently have background app refreshes switched "on" but no apps actually selected from the list.

  • HT1551 I ordered a rental movie on my computer and want to watch it on my 1st generation apple TV and it is not showing up there...any suggestions?

    I ordered a rental movie on my computer and want to watch it on my 1st generation apple TV and it is not showing up there...any suggestions?

    I had same problem last night with a movie rental not showing up under the 'Rented' tab in iTunes/Movies on my iMac: as I had no other rentals, there was no 'Rented' tab at all.
    In iTunes 11, the Downloads icon only appears next to the Search bar while there is an active download. Once any  downloads are finished, the icon disappears.  I had no icon so I had to assume the downloading had finished (in the previous UI you could check download progress even after they had finished).
    My movie rental did, however, show up under 'Rented Movies' under the 'Movies' tab in iTunes/Devices/(select any i/device) so I knew it was somewhere in my iTunes.  Yet, we couldn't access it via Apple TV.
    I fiddle around for a bit, restarting iTunes, restarting the iMac, to no avail.  Then I did a little housekeeping and moved a different movie I'd imported awhile ago, from the 'Home Videos' tab under iTunes/Movies.  Under File/Get Info, the 'Media Kind' was incorrectly set to 'Home Video' so I changed it to 'Movie'.  Thus the file was moved over into the Movies tab.  Hey Presto!  The Rented tab suddenly showed up, and there was my rented movie!
    This is the second time a movie rental did not show up after downloading.  Unfortunately my husband initiated the download so we figured he must've messed up somehow as he's not as familiar with iTunes as me.  Hence we opted to download the movie under a different iTunes account, which worked the second time with no problem.  Needless to say the invoice for the original download had no problem in finding us, hence we were effectively being charged twice for the same movie!  We have to contact apple support (such a hassle) but hopefully they will understand the issue (that's the difficult bit) and they are usually good at refunding when they finally accept the customer is genuine in their claim.
    In case anyone is tempted to critique my method, we download rentals through iTune on our computer as we had too many problems trying to rent via Apple TV.  Often the movie was not available to watch for many hours after it was rented, even though we'd start 'download' halfway through the day and sit down at night to watch it!  We have also had problems with movies that kept stopping during viewing because it wasn't streaming fast enough.  We'd give some time and come back to viewing, only to encounter the same.  One time we gave gave up and tried again the next evening, only to find the movie expired.  There is meant to be 48 hours after you've started viewing to resume watching a movie.  Apple's only response to this was to advise we needed a broadband internet connection to stream the movie - this was despite me already telling them we have broadband.
    Anyway, I hope this helps anyone experiencing similar issues with movie downloads.

  • HT1338 When I try to start my Garageband 6.05 I get a repetitive message that the core audio midi will not start. If I choose to ignore it, report it or reopen it, it just keeps coming up and garage will not load or start up?  Any suggestions?  THanks

    When I try to start my Garageband 6.05,I get a repetitive message that the core audio midi will not start. If I choose to ignore it, report it or reopen it, it just keeps coming up and garage will not load or start up?  Any suggestions?  THanks

    I'm just guessing at this point, but I suspect that you have installed a midi driver on your computer for some external device, and, since GarageBand's midi capabilities are limited in some ways, chances are your audio/midi driver is asking GarageBand to do something more than it's made to do, causing core audio's midi function to crash.
    If that's the case, you might want to try adjusting your midi device's driver settings, or uninstalling your midi device's driver, and then see if GarageBand starts up normally without it.
