IPad mini 3 won't download apps

So basically, today, I went to the app store to try and download a new app. It was free. So I would click the get button and then the install button. However, once I did that, it would immediately go back to the get button every time! I tried downloading other apps and it did the same thing. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could help.

Update: So after turning on and off my iPad, then giving the app downloading thing a few more tries, it started working again!

  • IPad Mini appstore won't update apps

    I just bought my friend's iPad Mini and I'm having trouble updating my apps because it keeps asking for my friend's (the previous owner) account password and not mine, even if I've already reset all setting on it and input my own apple ID. Help guys :(

    Ah! Even though you are using a different id now, your apps, priviously your friend's apps (am i correct?) were got using your friends id. The only thing you can do is to erase the apps and purchace them using your id. See what i mean?

  • IPad won't download apps or update them

    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.

    Another thing to try - Turn the iPad Off & then back ON.
    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.

    My iPod Touch 4th generation just won't download apps. I have tried everything I can think of. Please help!

    Hi, when you say you have tried everything... I presume you have gone into Settings > Store and logged out and back in with your account details?
    You could try purchasing an app via iTunes to see if its an issue with the device or the account you're using.
    Hope this helps.

    Before I upgraded my iPad mini, you could turn off apps to save battery power by double clicking the control button and then holding your finger on the app button until the minus sign appeared.  That doesn't work anymore.  How do you turn off the apps with ios7

    Now you swipe downward, the app will appear and you delete, keep scolling to the right as in the past.  With the new operating system you also swipe downward to get the search bar to find an app

  • TS2446 I just got my Ipad and I can not download apps.  I get a message saying my Apple ID has been disabled.  I have reset my password, I can access itunes and icloud but still can not download apps.  Can someone please tell me how to get my ID activated

    I just got my Ipad and I can not download apps.  I get a message saying my Apple ID has been disabled.  I have reset my password, I can access itunes and icloud but still can not download apps.  Can someone please tell me how to get my ID activated?  TY

    Depending on why it's been disabled you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
    Or you might need to contact Apple : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
    If it then works on your computer's iTunes but not your phone/iPad then try logging out of your account on the phone/iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on it

  • HT1430 My ipad mini is frozen in an app and the home button is stuck.  Pressing down on the sleep/wake button does not give me the red slider to turn the ipad off.  Is there any other way I can reset?

    My ipad mini is frozen in an app and the home button is stuck.  Pressing the wake/sleep button does not bring up the red slider to turn the ipad off. Is there any other way I can reset the ipad?  Can I remove the battery? and then put it back in?

    No the battery is non removable.
    Try a Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...

  • My iPad mini screen won't rotate

    Why my ipad min screen won't rotate.

    If you see a lock icon in the upper right corner of the screen - then the screen orientation is locked.
    Try the side switch above the volume rocker first and see if that unlocks the screen. If that doesn't do it, swipe up from the bottom to get to the control center. Look for the lock icon in the row of icons at the top. It will be the last one on the right. Check that to see if the screen is locked.
    If the screen is unlocked but still will not rotate, reset the iPad.
    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 button
