I have just updated my iphone 4s to ios7 and when i download an app it says 'Waiting' on the icon then disappears.

I have been having problems downloading apps for a while now. I only just downloaded IOS 7 but I thought it would help me, it hasn't.
I go onto the app store to download and app, i enter the correct passwrd and the apps icon appears to be downloaded. The waiting sign appears on the icon and then the icon itself disappears, then on the app store it looks as though i have never tried to download it! PLEASE help! i didnt get Flappy Bird because of this issue! lol

Hi Nerdyninja12,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Try this step first if an app download on your iPad is not completing:
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.
     App updates won't download on my iPhone, they just say waiting.

If the download still does not complete, force close and re-open the App Store. Here's how to force close an iOS application:
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app's preview up to close it.
These steps come from this article:

    Thanks jonmac22

    Hi Everyone,
    hope this message finds you all in time. The recent Apple TV update 5.1 is terrible. Apple knows it is which is why (thankfully for some relentless user -I have no idea who but I believe it was under threat) they have allowed to sign 5.0.2 again which means you can downgrade your Apple TV 2 and 3 to a 5.0.2 version via iTunes. Who knows how long they will keep the window open but I have downgraded my ATV early this morning. I couldn't post this earlier because I was out all day but I am doing it now.
    Here's how to do it:
    1) Connect your ATV to your computer via a Mini USB (not included with ATV but included with many other electronic devices) - in order for your ATV to appear in iTunes you must FIRST plug the USB cable to your computer and ATV and only THEN plug the power cable.
    2) Download your ipsw restore file from Apple.
    5.0.2 (ATV 2): AppleTV2,1_5.0.2_9B830_Restore.ipsw
    5.0.2 (ATV 3): AppleTV3,1_5.0.2_9B830_Restore.ipsw
    3) In iTunes select yout ATV, hold SHIFT and click on Restore
    4) Find and choose the downloaded IPSW file in the Open Dialog Box and hit Next
    5) As long as Apple still signs that version the Restore process will begin and will take a few minutes to complete.
    Enjoy!

  • I have just update my iphone 4 to iOS5 and it did all the usual restore stuff. The next time I connected to my Mac instead of syncing it started to restore again, any ideas?

    I have just update my iphone 4 to iOS5 and it did all the usual restore stuff. The next time I connected to my Mac instead of syncing it started to restore again, thus locking my handset, any ideas?

    This indicates corrupt files.  A restore should resolve.
    You might want to try a simple sync first

    thanks

    I have the same issue. The new address is fine when I use iTunes and on my iCloud account, but my iPhone has my old e-mail address and when I try to change it won't accept my new or old password to be able to do so.

    You cannot downgrade.
    Try a reset (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the Home screen redisplays, see if it has cleared things up.
    If not, then go to Settings and check all of your settings. If you have lots of Location Services turned on that you don't need, turn them off. Turn off Bluetooth when you are not using it. Turn off Background App refresh, turn off cellular roaming, etc.

  • HT4623 Help I have just updated my IPhone 4S to IOS6 and I have lost the SIRS, it pops up but does nothing. Any ideas

    Hi All I need a bit of help, I updated my iphone last night to IOS6 but I have lost SIRI. It pops up but doesnt do anything. Help

    I followed the thread and used the link provided to download iTunes version 10.6.3 (again). The same error message keeps coming up, telling me that I do not have it installed. I tried restarting the computer following the install, but it still won´t acknowledge that 10.6.3 is installed. Any other solutions?

    I have tried updating to the latest iTunes, but I am currently running Mac OSx 10.5.8, so I can´t go that route. Any suggestions?

  • Just updated my iPhone 4 to iOS7 and need help with iCloud

    I just updated my phone but my iCloud is still showing my AppleID from 6 months ago. I tried to delete the account and start over, but its insisting that I input my password (to the old ID) so that I may turn off Find My iPhone. Any suggestions or tips would be greatly appreciated.

    No longer applies, since the iOS 7 version you install OTA or thru iTunes today is the full official version. No longer a beta.
    As mentioned above, Restore-ing the phone from a recent backup will only load the DATA, not the apps or the system. And only data that does not conflict with what the new system has.
    Apps may or may not be automatically restored from iTunes' App Library backup, provided they don't conflict with iOS 7. Many times you have to go about restoring manually, maybe after updating to iOS 7 compatible releases.

  • I have a ton of apps i only have 11 pages of apps and when i download more apps it doesnt continue to the next page it just dissapears

    my apps just dissapear after 11 pages of apps and i cant see them or delete them

    11 pages is the limit. If you have enough space, you could put more in but you won't be able to see it. You have to use Spotlight to find it.
    Use computer iTunes to see beyond the 11 page limit. Also in here (much easier) you can group some of your apps together in a folder. Using folders you can have over 2000 apps.

  • I have updated my iphone to IOS 6 and when i download stuff from appstore it just dont download and you cannot take away the download

    on appstore i dont need to write in password and i have tried to do anything and it dont work and i get ****** of because i updated my favourite game and i cant play it.... i want to throw my iphone to the ground :/

    It sounds like to me you're trying to sync using the computer.
    Try these things and see if it helps before you try your next syncing session. If none of the things below work then you might consider trying to sync using iCloud only.
    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
     Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple. 
    Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

  • I have just updated my iPhone to ios 6 and my sound is now dodgy.

    It is all fuzzy and won't go to the top volume it used to. Any ideas or solutions??

    Hi ckuan,
    Thanks alot for the advice - great to see there are so many helpful people out there . Anyway, I followed your instructions and although some of the apps transferred from i tunes to my iPad the first time, unfortunately some of the apps that I selected to transfer (which were purchased) did not transfer. There were only a few but it would have been great to have got them back onto my iPad!
    Chow for now!

  • I just switch from iphone 3sg to iphone4 now when i download an app on my iphone4 it keeps saying it needs security code whet code pls help me thank you

    so seriously wat is the security code there talking about

    I believe you are correct. I had to replace my phone and it was necessary to enter the (3 digit) security code from the credit card the first time I updated some apps on the new phone. Thereafter only the password was requested.
