HT4623 Why don't Updates finish ?

Why don't updates finish?

If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.

Another thing to try - Turn the iPad Off & then back ON.
If that doesn't work:
•  Log out of your iTunes store account.  Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
• Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
• After restart, the Waiting should be gone.

  • HT4623 Why did the update of my phone to the IOS 6, lose my UTube icon, and was replaced with a Passbook app.

    Why did the update of my iphone4 to the IOS 6, lose my UTube icon, and was replaced with a Passbook app.

    Apple is no longer supporting YouTube with a native application starting with iOS 6.0.  The "old" YouTube application was automatically removed when you upgraded, and it no longer exists in the new iOS.  There are however, numerous third-party apps in the App Store which will allow you to view YouTube, including one from Google, which is the parent company for YouTube.  Passbook is a new application to iOS 6.0 and is not at all related to YouTube.

  • HT4623 why when i update my i phone 4 to ios 6.0 the app for youtube is missing ? can fix it ?

    why when i update i phone 4 to ios 6.0 ,the app for youtube for ios 5  is missing ?

    Yes you can   With the new update, the partnership wit Apple and YouTube ended.  You need to go in the app store and download the new YouTube app.  Good Luck!!  Cheers!

  • HT4623 why I cannot update my ipad from 5.1.1 to latest versions? Some of the apps wouldn't work on the 5.1.1 .  To buy a new ipad,would be a rip off .

    why I cannot update my ipad from 5.1.1 to latest versions? Some of the apps wouldn't work on the 5.1.1 .  To buy a new ipad,would be a rip off. What is the solution?

    The original iPad does not have the memory and processing power to run more recent version of the iOS. 5.1.1 is the latest it can run.

  • HT4623 why don't I have a software update button?

    How do I update my IOS?

    The option to update without the computer (Over the air) was made available with iOS 5. If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.

  • HT4623 Why is the update to 6.1.3 forcing me to erase my phone to work with iTunes?  I don't need it to work with iTunes!

    Infuriating!!!  I tried to install 6.1.3 -- my phone happened to be charging on my work computer.  Now I get a picture of the doc and an iTunes logo on my iPhone screen, and am being forced by iTunes to Reset my Phone.  Taking forever.  Tried turning the phone off and on several times to no avail. 
    Shame on me for trying to to the update in the middle of the day -- but previous iOS updates have been very smooth. 
    Biggest joke is that I no longer use iTunes for much of anything.  And now it's just messing me up and adding no value.

    Thanks for sharing.

  • HT4623 why is software update not shown in settings on my ipad?

    I'm trying to update my ipad for ios 5 and cannot find "software update" under settings, general. Any idea why?

    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1.3. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
    Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.

  • Why don't updates include install info?

    A student approached me today asking if I could help with their recently installed CS4 suite on their Mac laptop. Bridge/ACR was not recognizing their RAW camera files. I asked if they had downloaded the most recent ACR version of ACR and they said they had and they had installed it. I had a peek and indeed they had downloaded v5.2 but I did not think they had copied the camera raw plugin to the right folder. So here we were in an area without any Internet access and the download did not include any install instructions whatsoever.
    I'm writing this for any Adobe staff who might lurk in these forums to ask WHY NOT INCLUDE INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS!! I found the details just now on the Adobe website - a bit late to help. Why not include those instructions in the downloaded update? Perhaps in Acrobat format??
    Russell

    The installation instructions are very clearly stated on the downloads page, where your student obtained the download.
    However, it would indeed be nice if Adobe included a ReadMe file with the download itself repeating the instructions.

  • HT4623 Why Did this update result in changes to the apple id on my phone?

    Why did the recent  update cause so many problems on my new iphone?

    The update would not result in changes to your Apple ID.
    As for your other question it is impossible to answer since you haven't mentioned any specific problems.
    I (and millions of others) updated to iOS 6.1.3 with no problems whatsoever.
    What problems do you have? It is possible that some corruption occurred when you were updating your iPhone.

  • HT4623 Why does the update ask for a pass code? Previous updates did not.  Why does it NOT accept the only PIN I have set on this computer? Thanks.

    What the heck is a "pass code" and why am I being asked for one??  And where would I find said pass code?  I've not had to do that for prior updates, so am more than a bit confuzzed.  Thanks.

    The Passcode is the 4 digit code you use to unlock your iPad.

    Are you trying to do on your phone or with iTunes?   Most people here would advise to do an update in iTunes and to not forget to back up your phone first before doing so.

    Hello Hana-Morris,
    I would be be concerned too if I was not able to update my iPhone.  If you have not resolved the issue, I recommend following the steps in the article below for an issue like this:
