Any attempt to update apps on my ipad3 fail. appears to start then stops and returns to "x" number of updates waiting.
Not having this issue with IPhone
Have done both soft and hard reset & synced with ITunes.

First check the server status:

Try connect to wall power and make sure your Wi-Fi is connected to the Internet.
Also did you try updating using computer iTunes then sync to your iPad?

Ipad mini apps not updating after ios8.2 update

apps not updating after software update ios8.2 on ipaD MINI WITH RETINA SCREEN

Turn off any auto-update, if it is on, then tap any of the "circle icons" showing that a download is in progress, in order to stop the download. Then go to the Settings and reset the Network Settings. After the iPad starts back up, then check to make sure no apps are currently in progress of downloading. If any are, stop them again, and reset the network settings again. When it starts up again, none should be in the process of downloading. Then from that point forward, only download manually and never more than two at a time. If it is more than 100 MB, then do only one at a time. If any gets stuck at that point, then stop the download and reset the Network settings.
That should take care of you for now. We'll see what another update brings ... IOS 8.2 (which might be the next one).

IPad will not update apps keeps flashing sign into iTunes passwordA

IiPad wnot update apps that need updating I have 8.1.3 downloaded but didn't fix error. What to do

Hi Sherrynash1,
Thank you for contributing to the Apple Support Communities.
If apps on your iPad are not updating after you've updated iOS, there are several steps you can try.
First, try the solution from this discussion thread:
App updates won't download on my iPhone, they just say waiting.
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.
Next, try signing out of the iTunes & App Store on your iPad:
Tap Settings > iTunes & App Stores.
Tap your Apple ID.
Tap Sign Out.
Enter your Apple ID and Password and tap Sign In.
From:
iOS: Sign in with a different Apple ID in the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store - Apple Support
You may also want to restart your iPad before signing back in (step 4 above):
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
All the best,
Jeremy

If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

I have a macbook, an ipad, and an iphone with the Mail app on all three synced through icloud, but when I read and delete emails on my phone, the inbox on my ipad is not update, so I have to go through and mark as read or delete messages again. How can I

I have a macbook, an ipad, and an iphone with the Mail app on all three synced through icloud, but when I read and delete emails on my phone, the inbox on my ipad is not update, so I have to go through and mark as read or delete messages again. How can I sync my iphone and ipad? (it seems like each is synced only to my laptop, so don't synchronize until I go home and use my laptop.

POP: yahoo, aol, comcast/time warnder/road runner
Imap: google, hotmail, and more including icloud.
If you want to use multiple devices - move to imap, I would even say "exchange", but Google does not support free exchange anymore, since January of that year. So Ironically Icloud or Hotmail would be my choices right now.
To find out more about what happens to you, search on Google "difference between pop and imap"

Curretly, there is an iCloud blackout. It started this morning around 2AM California time (Pacific), 5AM New York (Eastern). A lot of people have been having issues all day, including me. No iCloud services are online. Even Find My iPhone is down.

My iPad will not update 2 of apps

My iPad will not update 2 of my apps. It shows the bar on them saying they need to load so I click on them and it says this app can not be uploaded at this time. I'm not sure what the problem is. I have tried to upload them on different types of internet and it will update all my other apps except those two.

Have you tried updating them one at a time? If that doesn't work, then update them in iTunes on the computer you sync with, delete the apps from your device, and then sync the updated ones to it via iTunes.
Cheers,
GB

My Ipad is not update app's

From Demo:
If you are getting the blank app update screen, and, many people are having this problem over the last several of days:
According to Fly150 in another discussion, this will work.
If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
1. Go to App Store
2. Select Purchased
3. Select All
4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
5. Select update on the Apps
This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store. Apple needs to fix this. It is a workaround only until then.
Or try this from Apple:
I understand that your App Store does not show your app updates. Please follow the steps below to help resolve the issue.
1. Close All Apps on iPad: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
2. Sign out of iTunes & App Stores: Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Tap AppleID > Sign out
3. Reset All Settings: Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
4. Reboot iPad
5. Sign back into iTunes and App Stores: Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Sign In with AppleID
Thank you for being an iTunes store customer. Apple appreciates your business.

My iPad will not update apps. I did try all previous suggestions.

My iPad will not update apps. I did try all the suggestions. When I click on the rapidly growing number of updates, the screen stays blank. Nothing is being downloaded. I have worn out the re-boot function.

This is a problem that many users are experiencing now. Apple is working on a fix.

you can update your apps in iTunes on your computer and sync the, to the iPad as well.

My iPad will not update apps. It states it is installing but if never completes the installation this has been going on for more than 24 hours. What do I need to do?

Try a reset:
1. Hold the Sleep and Home button down (together) for about 10 seconds
2. Until you see the Apple logo (very important)

Why do Apps not update after installing iOS6? They just hang there!

WHy do apps not update after installing iOS6?

Each time? every day? Just plain crazy! Updates happen automatically on your mac....why not the same thing on ipad/iphone?
If the app was purchased on my phone with my account, surely they do not need to "verify" my credentials each time. If my phone was stolen and someone purchased a $20 app surely my $300 phone is more important?
They need to come up with e better solution...when we all have hundred or thousands of apps on our devices what then?

My iPad will not update. It has said "waiting" for days

My iPad will not update. each time it says "waiting" and is installing or updating for days

Are you trying to update the iOS or install app updates?
Have you tried turning the iPad Off and then back On?
If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.
If that doesn't work:
• Log out of your iTunes store account. Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
• Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
• After restart, the Waiting should be gone.

You have to do better than that if you want help. Describe what happens when you try to update apps.

Apps not updating. Stuck on "Waiting"

I saw that large thread that was started months ago about apps not updating, getting hung up on "Waiting" then saying "App X could not be updated at this time. Done? Retry?" and no matter what you select, you cannot update or even use that app.
Has this still not been fixed? People were posting about this issue 5+ months ago. Do I really need to download some 3rd party software like iExplore to fix this?
I tried all the basic things listed in that thread, but I cannot believe Apple hasn't addressed this. Is there some new quick fix I'm missing?

Try tapping the App, so that it changes to Paused instead of Waiting, then tap it again to resume the install.
Also, make sure you don't have any paused downloads in other apps either, like the iTunes Store.
If that doesn't do it, try resetting or restoring the iPhone.
