IPad app updates waiting

I tried updating the apps on my iPad and they have been in waiting status for three days. Also, Safari has been running really slow during this time. ANy ideas?

In this order try ....
1. Reboot 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.
2. Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
3. If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>iTunes and App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. 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.
Go back to Settings>iTunes and App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
4. You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
5. You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.

Hey omaredabed,
Thanks for the question. I understand you have an app that seems to be stuck on "Waiting". The following is a past discussion that dealt with a similar issue, the answer may help you as well:
App updates won't download on my...: Apple Support Communities

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.

IPad apps show waiting but nothing happening? Anyone know why

Ipad3 apps show waiting but nothing is happening does anyone know why or what to do

This can happen from time to time. Something is clogging the download queue on your iPad. See if one of these suggestions helps you get this sorted out.
1. Tap the "waiting" icon and see if you can pause it. If it does pause, then tap it again and see if it will resume. If that works, repeat the same steps for each "waiting" icon.
2. Reboot 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.
3. Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
4. If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.

6. You can 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.
7. If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.

How do I change the Apple Id on my iPad app updates?

When updating apps on my ipad2, the wrong Apple Id shows up (an id from another family member's iPhone). We use the same pc with itunes. How can I change this so only my app updates are shown? This is the only place that this Id shows up incorrectly. My correct id shows up in Settings.

Apps are always associated with the Apple ID that was used to purchase them. AFAIK - as long as you are using apps on your iPad that were purchased with another Apple ID - those app updates will always popup when they are available. The only way to remove the updates is to delete the apps.

Ipad app updates via wifi not working

I went from talktalk broadband to Bt on Tuesday (27 Nov), which may be a coincidence, but ever since my ipad 3 and iphone 4s will not sync app updates over wifi, they just freeze. I am getting so frustrated, one day these all worked seamlessly and now not.

Try this
Make Sure iOS is updated to the latest version
Reboot the device by pressing and holding down the home and sleep/wake buttons (power) at the same time until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset allsettings

IPad app update kills app

Yesterday I downloaded three app updates, two for magazine readers and a third for the intellicast weather app. All downloaded and opened fine.
When I closed the intellicast app the icon went dark, the name below the app vanished and it would not open. I tried to delete it to reload it, but the icon jiggled, but no X appeared to delete it. I was, however, able to open it by going to the App Store, finding the app, and pressing the open button.
I then downloaded the Accuweather app and it did the same thing. Close it, won't reopen except through the store, and can't delete it.
The magazine.changes work fine and reopen, BTW.
Any thoughts?

Sometimes updates and downloads do the weirdest things like what you re experiencing now. I don't know if this will help, but it doesn't hurt anything and it quite often will fix the little hinky issues that you might see when you use your iPad. Reset the device and then see if you can delete the apps and download them again, or see if that fixes the way the icons look and work.
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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

App updates "Waiting"

Since I updated to the new OS, I have a bunch of apps that are stuck "Waiting". I can not use any of them or get them to finish updating.
When I go into the App Store I can update other apps, but not this bunch. I have tried on a wireless network and on cellular, but they do not complete.
Does anyone have a solution other than to delete all of them and start over?

If the system reset suggested by Philly_Phan does not work, you can try some of these things.
Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.

After the Numbers 2.2.1 iPad app update, my spreadsheets won't open as it says the file format is invalid

I have been using the 1.4 version of Numbers for some time on my iPad. After updating to the 2.2.1 version, my files can no longer be accessed as when I click to open them they display the message "Spreadsheet can't be imported - the file format is invalid". The files will not upload to icloud, send, copy or open in another app. Can anybody help?

Just to mention it: My iPad (also on 4.2.1) syncs fine so far.

IPad app update does not appear to work

I have the new iPad with retina display and several days ago, I noticed that I keep getting bugged to update the app "CNBC Real-Time for iPad." When I accept the update, the app appears to update. However, when I click on the App Store, I am again bugged to install the same update. Resetting my iPad has not corrected this. Deleting the app and reinstalling the app did not correct this either. I am inclined to believe that this is a problem with the application and not the iPad given that I don't seem to have this problem with other applications but I wanted to report this in case it is more than that. Just wanted to bring this to attention both in case this is a problem not isolated to this app and my iPad.

This has been resolved.
For those searching for reasons: it was probably a aftershock from the appstore issue from a few days ago... Or the app version number didnt match the soon to be released updates which got leaked (new appstore issue)
Anyway, its all good now.
Thanks!:)

TS1702 I have 6 app updates waiting to be updated. Everytime I try to update them, the little bar appeara for about a second then the screen goes back to the update again. I tried deleteing 2 apps and reloading them but it will not let me install them aga

I have read alot of suggestions on how to fix it..I have deleted a few of the apps and tried reinstalling them but that won't work either. I have completely turned off the Ipad and it still asks me to update them...It does allow me to install a new app however.

The problem corrected itself,....i tried to delete the post but could not do it.

You must restore the iPad with iTunes - with iTunes on the computer used for syncing the iPad.

IPad app update automatic login will not change

How do I change my apple id to update my apps for my ipad mini? It remains my wifes login even though I am logged in with my apple id. Is it a function of iTunes store?

It is a function of the store, Apps are forever tied to the Apple Id that is used purchase an app. They are non-transferrable, so as long as you have the app that was purchased with wifes ID then her ID is required to update it.
You can delete the app and then purchase it using your ID.
