I am having trouble in the app store after upgrading to iPhone 5 and iOS 6

I am having trouble since upgrading from iPhone 4s to iPhone 5.  The "restore" feature never completed after activation of the new phone (it was close, only "find my iphone" app did not complete - it looked like it is forever trying to download).  But now, when I have tried to update apps, or even purchase new (free or paid) apps, the store does not let me.  It flashes error messages on my screen so quickly they cannot be read (the first is something about signing in to the store with an apple ID).  I have seen other similar threads and have tried logging out and into the app store from the settings menu.
I also cannot get any of my music to transfer to the iPhone (from the icloud).  It seems to be trying to but I just get the spinning wheel of death.
Any thoughts or help out there would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Hello there, Missy.
First thing I would recommend is to check your downloads queue to make sure there is not an interrupted download per the following Knowledge Base article:
iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1725
If your download was interrupted using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
1. From the Home screen, tap the iTunes app.
2. For iPhone or iPod touch, tap More > Downloads. For iPad, tap Downloads.
3. Enter your account name and password if prompted.
4. Tap the blue download arrow to resume.
If you can't complete the download on your iOS device, you can download it in iTunes on your Mac or PC and then sync it to your iOS device. You can also transfer purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer.
For Apps, you can also try tapping on the application icon to resume the download, as outline in this featured discussion:
App updates won't download on my...: Apple Support Communities
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4111336
Try tapping the App, so that it changes to Paused instead of Waiting, then tap it again to resume the install.
Make sure you don't have any paused downloads in other apps either, like the App Store or iTunes Store.
If that doesn't do it, try resetting or restoring the iPhone.

  • Hi I am having trouble accessing the App store and I tunes on my IPad, it just keeps loading. How can I fix it please.

    I am having trouble accessing the Apps store and ITunes on my IPad. It just keeps loading, can someone please tell me what I've done wrong. Thanks

    I have never experienced that or read about it either but before you resort to restoring - and that may be what you have to end up doing - try the basics first.
    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.
    Reset 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.
    Sometimes just restarting the iPad can really help. The resolution may end up being more complicated, but try the simple things and then move on.

  • Anyone else having trouble with the app store on iPad today?

    The app stor app is malfunctioning. Frozen in categories, wouldn't download updates. I shut my iPad down and tried again, synced it with my computer. Same result.

    Did you try quitting the App? Double tap the home button to get to the recent apps at the bottom. Tap and hold down on the App Store icon until it wiggles, tap the minus sign to close the app and then tap the screen above the task bar to return to the home screen
    Launch the App Store again and see if it works ok.

  • Why can't I update/ download apps from the app store after upgrading to iOS 7.0.3?

    I have an iphone 5 and updated my phone to the lastest version (ios 7.0.3) last night. I can't download/ update any apps from the app store using my cellular network.  The only error message is that the app cant be downloaded at this time. As soon as I click the download button, the image of the icon shows up with "Waiting" underneath the icon.  I tried tapping on the app icon to pause the download but that isn't working. I have disabled Wi-Fi setting and enabled"the use cellular data" option in the itunes and app store setting page.  Memory is not an issue because I have a lot of memory available.  In the cellular setting page the App Store is enabled to use cellular data.  It seems like it is a setting issue.  What can be done to fix this problem

    Thanks for your suggestion.  Not long ago before I saw your response I tried to download the app and I seemed to have some progress (I had 5 bars and 1x). It looked it was 3/4 of the download complete only to have the same error message. 
    Since then I reset the phone and I have tried downloading the app when there 5 bars with 3g.  Every time the icon has waiting underneath it and I get the same error message. 

  • I am having trouble with the App Store with regards to Logic X 10.0.7

    Hi, I just bought Logic X and it says that it is installed under my purchases but I cannot find it anywhere on my Mac. Am I missing out on anything?

    It should be in the Apps folder. Have you looked to see it listed in LaunchPad?

  • "invalid argument" error message when connecting to the App store after upgrading iphone 4 to 5.0 firmware

    Hi everyone,
    I have seen many topics about this problem but none of them helped and they seem to date a little bit so I would like to ask again.
    here is the situation :
    we have two iphone 4 in the house and everything was going fine until we did the update to the new 5.0 firmware. there was no problem while the update had only been applied to the first iphone... but after updating the second one, we now have the same problem on both iphones. We can still connect to the internet from the iphone just fine but the connection is erratic at best with the itunes store because we keep getting cut by this dreaded error message "connection to the itunes store impossible, "invalid argument" occasionnally we'd get a different message that says "connection reset by peer"
    - what is invalid argument mean anyway???
    - I have tried to renew the lease in the network settings, it didn't work
    - I have tried to reset the network setting, it didn't help
    - I have checked in the network setting for the IP address, it starts with 192.xx.xx..... which is supposed to be a good thing as opposed to 162.xx.xx....
    - I have reset my router, nothing happened...
    - I have tried unauthorising my computer to any accounts because we were afraid that using two iphones with two different itunes store accounts one the same computer may have caused these problems.. but no luck
    I am running out of ideas, I would like to renew my frustration to apple because we buy these expensive products and still seem to suffers from stupid bugs... I was under the impression that these things were tested !!! anyway if anyone has found a definitive solution to this problem (short of burning your iphone out of anger) it would be deeply appreciated.
    thx

  • Anyone having trouble with the home button after upgrading to Ios6

    Is anyone having problems with the home button not working correctly after down loading ios6?

    I haven't but try resetting...
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    Then restart your iPad.
    No data will be lost as a result of a reset.

    If you are saying that after signing into iCloud it is telling you device is not found, it could be for any number of reasons. If the battery is dead, if the SIM has been removed, or if someone else has the phone and they have restored it, it will not be shown. Also, if you located it once and then sent a remote wipe, it disables the abililty to locate the phone with Find My iPhone.

    This works for some users. Not sure why.

    I kept getting this upgrade prompt from the App Store to upgrade free to OS10 Yosemite. So I finally did on my 4 year old iMac and now it appears to be stuck just spinning on that stupid ball that means trouble and it is not progressing.  Anybody got any idea what I do now?  Thanks.

    I don't think you would get a thing from the App Store running 10.3.x on a PowerBook. It would help if you told us what you really are using and what version of OS X you were running.
    It would also help to tell us what the "stupid ball" is. In fact it would be a big help to give us a thorough and intelligible description of your situation so we don't have to guess.

  • Having trouble with in app purchases after ios7 upgrade?

    I'm having trouble with in app purchases after ios7 upgrade

    I'm having the exact same problem.  Unfortunately, I can't tell you what is causing it, but I can tell you what it isn't(at least in my case).  I made an in app purchase yesterday using a MasterCard I had linked to my account with no problems.  This morning, my card from my new bank came in so I switched it over(American Express), and all of a sudden can't make IAP.  I thought maybe there was an issue with the card, so I tried it out on a .99 app, and it worked no problem.  So I got with tech support and they had me reset all of my phone settings -_-, then my network settings.  No change.  I tried restarting the phone obviously, closing the App and trying again, no luck.  They suggested I call my bank and make sure the address I had on file for the card matched what I supplied for my Apple account, and that didn't fix it either.  I tried IAP on two different apps and it was the same, could not connect to App Store error.  I'm still trying to figure it out, and I'm sorry I can't be of more help, but I hope I at least save you some trouble of trying these things.  If I find anything out I'll let you know.
