Iphone 4s Apps wont update on Iphone/Itunes

So i got the new Iphone 4s and noticed after the first week i was unablet to Update apps. I have called the Tech Service and they were unable to provid an accurate answer. I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem with the new phone and if so how does one fix it.
In itunes it states that its downloaded but its grayed out. and if i delete the app it shows up that i can download again (which ***** because i have about 35 apps and most of them cost money.)
On Iphone 4s with 5.0.1 software it is showing i have the same amount of apps that need to be updated however when i click update it says unable to connect to the itunes store (in a pop up window.)
Please let me know how to fix this problem....

Seems I have only been able to update by using my computer and the iTunes app area for updates.  What a royal pain, wish I stayed with my 4s.

Is this to be expected? i thought that if the accounts were linked then she could purchase, and iunb this case, update apps, with her own password???

    Try the following:
    1. Turn iPad off and on again
    2. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo
    3. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings
    4. Use iTune (computer) to update/download and sync to iPad

    after updating to ios 7.1 with my iphone 4 my apps wont update it just loads then stop help please

    Reset your iPhone.  Hold the on/off and home buttons together for about 10 seconds till the Apple logo appears.
    If you continue to have issues, try downloading the apps to iTunes on your computer, then sync your iPhone using iTunes.

  • My Apple ID changed and now my apps wont update

    Recently my Apple ID was changed from chunkster92 to [email protected]  Now my apps wont update because they are looking for my original Apple ID of chunkster92.
    When I look at the info block on the apps they indicatre that they are linked to an Apple ID of chucnkster92.  Apple wont let you have tan ID thats not an email address anymore.  So when the apps are trying to update they are looking for my old account of chunkster92 and not the account name format as Apple wants now of [email protected]
    When I look at the apps page in iTunes and selct "all" apps at the top of the page, it indicates at the bottom of the page available.  When I try to update the apps the next screen says that there or no updates available.  I'm signed into iTunes as [email protected] and not chunkster92 which is the account the apps are looking for.
    Short of deleting all 230 apps (I know, I could reduce that number some) and reloading them, how do I change the apps to look for [email protected] or reestablish my old ID of chunkster92?
    many thanks,
    chunkster92

  • My iPad 1's apps wont update?

    My iPad 1 apps wont update. It has the loading bar half across the apps but when I click on it it says 'app name' could not be downloaded at this time. I have tryed signing out and back into my Apple account and restarting my iPad but neither worked. The strange thing is the new apps I try to download work fine. This is very annoying as I can't use the apps. Please help!

    I've seen periodic flakyness in the App Store (mainly on the device) ever since iOS 7 was released over a month ago. Could just be another one of those moments, especially with the new iPad Air releasing today with many users activating & downloading.

  • Apps wont update on iphone 4

    Apps won't download on ipone4, logged in to itunes store ok, can download new apps & music ok. Keeps asking for password for each app awaiting update, correct password entered then "cannot connect to store appears" and app update abandons
    Have treid reset form within phone settings, no change

    I had the same problem with mine.  I am using WiFi. I have noticed that almost all WiFi connectivity with my ATT iPhone is slow.  I waited long enough  and they eventually downloaded and updated.  I did leave the screen on unitl they were done.  Frustrating, it wasn't always like that with this phone.  It seems like every update I get on the phone it updates over the WiFi Tubez slower.

  • HT204266 My apps wont update

    Hi. For the last three days I have been trying to update my apps on my iPhone 4S but my phone won't allow me to.
    When I go to the app store and click the upsate all botton it does nothing. Same when I click on a single app. My phone is on the latest iOs software and I currently have 11updates available for my apps. I have tried updating them via iTunes on the computer and I have even restarted my phone and nothing has changed.
    Help me please. What else can I do to try and get my apps updated.

    In one sense you are correct but updating apps individually seems to be less problematic. Have you tried restarting your iPad? Have you tied a Reset? [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is app and data safe!

  • My apps wont update

    Hi there.
    I recently had a problem with my apps. They work perfectly on my iPhone 3G 3.1 (7C144), and they all appear at my itunes. The problem is that many of them can be updated. In iTunes, it shows me a text under my apps that is saying "x updates available". When I press that, it takes me to a page saying no updates available, check again later.. uh?
    On iPhone, it shows the number of the updates on the app store icon, i go there, on the updates submenu, it shows all the apps that have an update, but when i try to update it sais "cant connec to iTunes store"
    I don't know what to do :/ can u guys help me?

    I finally figured out what the issue is.
    On iTunes, I found in my list of apps a few apps that I had deleted on my phone but these deletions did not synchronize properly with the computer. Look closely at your list and find the apps that are no longer on the phone but somehow are still on iTunes despite syncing.
    It seems iTunes is still looking for updated for these old apps and when any are available they appear as "Available Updates". iTunes is drawing its update query from this list. But then when you click on the updates button, none appear because iTunes also seems to know that these apps are no longer on your phone.
    In other words: this is a bug. For whatever reason Apple has not bothered to fix this for months now.
    Solution: Go one and by one and delete on iTunes the ones you no longer have. Presto!
