I have updates in the app store, but they won't update

I have updates waiting, but I can't get them to update. I have had this phone for nearly two years. This is a new issue.

What happens exactly when you click to update?  Do you get an "updating" button in place of the "Update" button?  Is there an error message?
Did you try updating using itunes on a computer instead of an over the air update directly from the device?

  • My Apple Remote Desktop won't update in the App Store but it won't update. Any suggestions?

    I just updated to Yosemite. Now Apple Remote Desktop shows up in the App Store as an update. However, double clicking yields an alert that it can't be updated through the store. The Alert advises that I have to go to the Apple menu Software Updater. That didn't work either.

    I also have ARD 3 from the disk and just updated to Yosemite. Its up to date at Version 3.7.2 (372A19).
    The "update" the App Store claims is Version 3.7.2 - Released Mar 17, 2014.
    The error message I get is:
    We could not complete your purchase.
    Remote Desktop is already installed on this computer. Choose Software Update from the Apple menu to check for available updates.
    This seems like a bug to me.

    The iTunes Store on my iPad is set up with all my music already. And at the very bottom it shows my apple Id username. The only place it shows the previous owners id is in the App Store...
    You can probably change the ID in the "iTunes and App stores" settings on the iPad....click on the wrong account ID , select sign out, then log in with your own ID, I have not done this but I think it works.....
    but I would be more inclined to to the factory reset and start afresh.

  • Hi I have downloaded compressor4 from Apps store but it won't open - says compressor not properly installed. The reason for my purchase was that compressor 3 stopped working. I tried to reinstall from the FCP disk but it was 'greyed out'.

    Hi I have downloaded compressor4 from Apps store but it won't open - says compressor not properly installed. The reason for my purchase was that compressor 3 stopped working. I tried to reinstall from the FCP disk but it was 'greyed out'. I followed suggestions from the apple site to clear various library files - mainly relating to Qmaster but this didn't make any difference, an iwonder igf perhaps this is the reason for the compressor 4 programme not working. Thanks

    You need to export a self-contained video from FCP 6. Import the self-contain video into Compressor 4.

  • Just downloaded Lion and now iMovie won't respond when I try to open it. Even tried deleting the program (since it was an older version) and bought it new from the app store, but still won't respond.

    Thanks for this mha007 - I can now open FF with a new profile. Can I copy my settings from the old profile or will this bring over the same problem, maybe a corrupt file. If it would bring the same problem, is there any way I can check which file is corrupt, apart from taking them over one by one?

  • I'd downloaded many apps from the apps store but they're all dissappeared on my homescreen. I found them on purchased apps from the apps store as well, but still cannot run. Help. I'm using iphone 5s n latest version of ios.

    Thanks too all the people who responded. . . . (noone)
    Got it sorted though. Seems that Apple has issues with multiple apple id's.
    Seems i had to somehow remember and use the original id i had when i first bought my 1st iPhone. . . .
    Even after that it was extremely hard to get my apps back on my PC.
    If anyone else has the same problem. . . .email Apple. Cya.

  • My iPod touch will access the app store, but it won't install from it.

    I was given a used iPod Touch, and I don't know any of its history. Eveything was working fine, and then one day I tried to install from the App store and it won't work at all. I can press the "install" button, but then the app store will just close without even setting up an icon on the home screen. If I try to install the same app again, there's no record that I had tried to install it previously. I use this for school, so this is really annoying.
    PS: I am a clueless Windows user, and have never owned and i-anything until now. =)

    Try resetting the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • My Ipad 2 will not open apps that I have download from the app store but will open apps that came preinstalled.

    My IPAD 2 will some times not open apps that I have down load from the app store. But will open all of the preinstalled apps.I must go to the app store and install something and then all the apps will open. I should not have to install unwanted apps to keep my IPad working.I have reset and total reset nothing sames to work.

    Sounds to me like you may have an issue with the firmware, i.e. the iOS version that you are runing.  I also have an iPad 2  and sometimes have to restart it to get it to recognize and run a newly downloaded app.  And only once or twice have I had to uninstall and redownload an app that this didn't fix. I think this has more to do with the way an app has been coded more than anything else.
    You might try doing a "Reset All Settings" reset and set it up as a new iPad.  You should not lose any data, apps, music, videos, etc. that you have stored on your device.  I have done this a few times when tweaking the iOS 5.0.1 firmware and never lost anything.  You do have to re-enter your ID's and Passwords for wifi.  And of course you will need to go back into settings and reset any changes you may have made to things like location and notifications.
    I don't know if this will work, but if I was in your place this is the next step that I would take.

  • I purchased mountain lion in the app store but it won't download

    I bought OS X Mountain Lion in the App Store on my Macbook. It asked for my computer password and itunes accont password. After I entered them a button labeled "Download" replaced the "$19.99" button. When I click on the button a small whirling symbol appears above it but dissapars after a second and nothing begins to download. I tried to hit the apple in the upper left hand corner of the screen and select software update but it doesn't appear happens. What should I do?

    Were you in your Purchases section of the app store?
    After purchasing it, it should show up there.

  • Loaded IOS7 last night, my purchased Apps are visible in the App Store, but they didn't load automatically.  I can Open the Ap, but it won't load.  Any suggestions

    Loaded IOS 7.0.2 yesterday on my Ipad Mini, and although I can see all of my Apps in the App Store, they didn't load automatically.  I went into the App Store, selected Purchased, could see them all.  I clicked on Open, the App does Open and I can use it, but it will not appear as an icon on my screen, Only way to access it is via the App Store, Purchased and Select Open every time.  Any suggestions??

    It looks like the developer's of that app, or Apple, have got the wrong search name for it in the store - you could try contacting the developer and pointing it out to them so that they can get it corrected. Currently it looks like you can only find the app either by using the link (as you've included in your post), or by searching for the developer's name (Page Foundry Inc) in the store.
    For searching the store, when you search for something then the first result(s) should be those whose title matches what you searched for - so if you search for 'ebook reader' then as there is an app with that exact name it will be first in the results, other apps will then be listed after it.

  • I purchased Mountain Lion online from the App store but it won't download

    I purchased Mountain Lion from the App Store, and after 2 days it still hasn't downloaded. The download appears to have frozen.
    Has anyone else had this problem?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    First of all, restart your Mac and resume the download. To resume the download, open App Store > Purchases, and press the Resume button next to OS X Mountain Lion.
    If it doesn't work, open Finder, go to Applications folder and delete the OS X Mountain Lion installer. Then, open App Store > Purchases, and download Mountain Lion again

  • TS1702 I bought a pre-owned MacBook Air, I'm trying to update my apps on the app store but they keep giving me a error sign. The old owners account is still activated how can i de activate her account and activate mine?

    help

    Try updating the App (and your account details if necessary) on your computer and then sync the updated App to your phone. Then maybe it will be resolved.

  • I downloaded the latest update from the Apps store and it won't work.  I cannot download anothe rbecause the Apps store reads this version installed. What to do?  What to dooooo?

    What a pain in the *** this whole process is too.  I might as well just delete the freakin' program from the computer and rack it up to nonsense on the Apple end of things. To **** with you.  Support ***! Bah! 20 minutes into this process and I have to type and retype over something you suggested I do.  Next time I'll take your suggestions with a grain of salt . Fuggetaboutit!
