HT4972 After Updating-Apps Don't Open

I updated my phone last night and everything was fine, this morning after using it for an hour or so, all of my downloaded apps stopped opening. The only information I can find keeps referring to jailbreaking, but I don't even know what that is. A simple step by step explanation of how to fix it would be immensely appreciated.

Try downloading and installing any free app from the App Store. That usually resets things as they should be.

    I was unable to access the laptop last night to create a new user; however my client would perfer not to try a second account since that would make it unusable for him while we test the second profile.
    Also John Sophos was installed after this started to verify that it was not a virus/malware (I know pointless step but it has happened to me before) so I don't think that is the problem

  • After updating apps list does not clear

    after updating apps list does not clear

    Easiest way to clear list is; go to settings>general>date and time and set date manually to a point at least one month in the future (I set mine to two months ahead) and then open App Store and check for updates. The list should now be clear. This is just an update history list. When finished just turn on auto date/time or set it back manually if you like and list should still be clear. If you do nothing the updated apps should start to drop off the list in about two to three weeks.

  • My apps don't open after updating

    HELP!! I updated my ipad before i slept and this morning, apps such as keynote, QuickOffice, and Wallpaper don't open. They appear for a split second after i tap on the icon and the screen returns to the menu of apps again. I can see them in the bottom toolbar, though... so does that mean that they're open but have some sort of malfunction?? HELP!!

    thanks! I got really ticked off and went to the nearest Mac shop and here's what we did: 1. made sure that my store account in my laptop was the same one that i'm using with the ipad. 2. tried to sync (but this failed). 3. downloaded some of the apps to the LAPTOP. 4. did a sync... AND IT WORKED!!!
    Thanks for the help, guys!

  • Hi everyone, I've had problems with some apps on my iPad. The apps don't open after update

    How do I fix apps that don't open after update?

    Try a hard reset ie hold the power and home buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears (ignore the red slider). Are you still using iOS 4.3.3, as in your profile? A lot of apps now need an iOS of 6 or higher for the update to download.

  • After iOS 8.3 update, apps stuck on OPEN on App Store Updates page

    Did the iOS 8.3 update by backing up my iPad Mini in iTunes then doing a "Restore". I did that with the last update and all went fine. This time, it appears to have gone well except that I had some apps that had updates pending after the Restore. After doing the updates, when I go to the App Store "Updates" page, I still have 4 of my apps listed there with the button option set to OPEN. On the upper right corner it says "Updated August 18, 2015". Yesterday when I did the update was Saturday April 25, 2015 - go figure. When I tap them they all open but they never leave the page. One post said to wait until an app had a valid update pending and see what happens after I update it, so I'll need to wait to see if that works. I have searched this community and tried all suggestions: changed the date set to manual and push it out over 30 days. That did not work. Did a reset. No luck. I even did another "Restore" thinking maybe that would resolve it, but they came right back. The puzzling thing is that in all of my searching, I have found apps stuck in differing states of "waiting" or "downloading", but none of them have mentioned seeing the apps with the OPEN option visible. I did delete the apps and that made them go away, but I'd prefer to keep them. Any suggestions would be sincerely appreciated. Thanks in advance...slog

    If it has NEVER been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures:
    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, read this.

  • Inapropriate apps appear after updates are done

    I need help! I was looking through my son's (11) iPod touch recently and there were apps on there that were not purchased. My kids don't know the iTunes password, so all purchases have to be approved by me or my husband. These apps seemed to appear after an update was done. They are NOT appropriate for an 11 year old.  I can't simply delete them because when you press and hold the icon, no 'X' appears for these apps. I'm very concerned that some apps in iTunes are not legit because this doesn't seem right. Can anyone help me remove them???

    - The App and iTunes store is ste up so that there is a ten minute window to download something after the passwared for an update or purchse has been made.  From your dscription, it appeared that that happened.
    - It also appears that you have restrictions set that prohibit deleting apps.  Go to Setings>General>Restrictions.  You have to enter the passcode to change them.
    - Look at the apps on the iPod.  if there is one named Cycia, it means that the iPod had been jailbroken and that apps can be installed by means other than the App store.

  • After i synch many apps don't open

    After I synch with iTunes many of my iPad apps no longer open. My laptop's iTunes has multiple login IDs, but these apps I have downloaded myself. I select the manual synch, but then don't really have the opportunity to make any manual selections.

    If the apps aren't opening or are crashing on the iPad, then if it's happening on all the apps that you've downloaded from the App Store, but not the Apple built-in ones, then try downloading any free app from the store (as that appears to reset something) and then re-try them - the free app can then be deleted.
    If it's happening on all apps then try closing them all completely and then see if they work when you re-open them : from the home screen (i.e.not with any app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of each app to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    In terms of syncing what shows on the iPad's Apps tab on your computer's iTunes - are the apps greyed out so that you can't tick them, or is it that nothing happens when you try to sync them ?

  • I updated my Ipod Touch 2G to ios 5 but since then my apps don't open anymore. It says I need ios 4.0. what can I do?

    I have updated my ipod touch 2G to ios 5 but my apps won't open anymore. When I try, i have a message saying that I need ios 4.0.
    Before this update, my apps worked fine. How can I do to make them work again?

    - Based on the release date specified here, it appears to be a 2G iPod:

    Apple - Support - Check Your Service and Support Coverage
    - Are you sure you updated the iPod?  If you go to Settings>General>About>Version what is listed?
    - If you have a 2G with iOS 5 then you would have had to jailbreak the iPOd and that can cause problems
