IPhone 4S will not update or download apps...
For the last couple of days I have been unable to download or update apps on my phone. The app just reads "waiting". I figured it had something to do with 3G but it doesn't work with WiFi either. I tried shutting it off as well...nothing. Any one else having this issue?!
All apps.
6.1.3
No errors, but it made be update credit card data & password.

My iPhone 5 will not let me download Apps it keeps saying timed out, why is this?
How come this happens?
It's not telling you to come here, it's telling you to contact iTunes support:

There is no one from Apple here, & no one here can help you. -
For the 2nd day my iPhone 5 will not let me download updates for apps. I've tried selecting each to click off wait, and have selected new updates indvidually instead of all together. Also have shut the phone down and have even deleting the apps completely and re-downloaded but to no avail. Each app continues to sit on my screen with the line below as if it is about to download but never does, and now any apps I've tried to updated will not let me use them.
Oh my gosh I had the EXACT same problem, and for ages I couldn't figure out how to fix it until today. Here's what I did:
First I went onto my computer, opened itunes, and un-installed tumblr, vine and kik. These were the apps I was having problems with (it said I had them on my phone but, like you, they didn't show).
Then I went to the itunes store, searched for each one, and it said I could update them so I did (just FYI: for tumblr a window popped up saying "please click ok to confirm you are 17 years or older", so I did that also)
When I went back to my phone and tried installing them again (still on my computer), it worked!
I hope this helps, because it was incredibly frustrating. Good luck! -
My iphone 4s ios 7/0/4 will not update music or apps from itunes 11.1.3. this was true with my pc since ios 7.0.3 even with update 7.0.4 and now continues with my new MacPro also runing itunes 11.1.3. as most state in previous threads, syncs all non itunes related data with no issue and appears to work correctly on itunes data but then hangs on the last step of updating until it times out. i have tried marking specific music to transfer, setting up new playlist, deleting some old playlist on phone but stopped short of restoring my phone back to new due to the amount of non itunes data that i will lose. The itunes setup on the macpro was completely with the download of all music from a previous external backup and the creation of new playlist - on the first sync with existing phone it did ask to overwrite all phone itunes data with macpro itunes data which i did accept - no different result - no changes on phone.
Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
If the problem continues, take the device to Apple for evaluation and possible replacement. -

Muy iphone 4 will not update apps. In trying to do so, it goes directly to the app. I have read pages and pages on this same issue in Apple support communities, and have tried the suggested solutions to no avail. Why is Apple support not addressing this issue?
I believe this issue was addressed in a software update. If your signature is accurate, you are about five updates behind

You must contact iTunes support to get the problem resolved.
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
If there is a problem with your account or payment info, you cannot
download anything (including free apps or updates) until the matter
is resolved.
In countries where the iTunes Store only sells apps, the accepted payment methods are Visa, MasterCard, and American Express. Other payment types such as gift cards, store credit, monthly allowances, ClickandBuy, and PayPal are not accepted. Depending on your App Store country, prices may be listed in your local currency, US Dollars, or Euros. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5552 -
My iphone 4s will not update to ios 7. I'm trying to update this through my imac because the iphone will also not connect to my home wifi. I've tried several different things but nothing is working. I deleted enough pics and apps so there is enough storage. When i plug it in, it starts to bring all my photos to the imac. I cancel this because i don't want it. It then says extracting software, backing up iphone, then i get the error message. Do I need the iphone 5?
I just tried again, no code comes up on the imac. Just says cannot back up this device with my "initials" because of an error. It's weird because my iphone has been connected to othert wifi sources in the past. I've looked through these forums and have tried multiple things like resetting the phone, resetting network, shutting off modem and router, nothing works. I have an apple airport extreme router too. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

IPhone 4 will not update! HELP!
Hi all,
My iPhone 4 will not update to IOS 5.0, an error message keeps coming up that that 'network connection timed out'. I'm connected to my Wi-Fi at all times.I had the same problem. I waited about one hour with the progress bar on iTunes at about 50% and the progress bar on my iPhone 4 at about 20% with no further progress.
I unplugged iPhone, got the error message (9), shut down iTunes, restarted my Macbook Pro, did a hard reset on iPhone and then reconnected to my MBP. iTunes launched and notified me that my iPhone needed to be "restored."
I went ahead and did the restore, which took only about 8-10 minutes. I did not restore the prior iphone backup, but chose to synch it as a new iphone. All went well. It now shows iOS 4.2.1 and all I have to do is manually install the apps I want, etc....
I hope this helps. -
My ipo will not let me download apps or sync them either.
There are a million ppl having this problem right now and it seems like Apple is ignoring it. It's been real bad since May, even worse that last week or so. Basically all we can do is sit and wait to see what excuse or help, if any, will be given. I've used a Walmart pre-paid card and I'm sorry, but who really incorrectly types a 3 digit number a million times?! Also my account is saying I owe iTunes $40 for in-app purchases. Bull!! My card sends me a balance twice a day via text and because of this, I know what, where, and how my money is being spent. Also it's pre-paid, how can you have an over draft?!?! Here's a real kicker though...my card balance is in the positive!!! Hmmm, obviously not a fault on my part, the part of my card, nor my iPod. It's all in the system!!!

My iphone 4 will not update to 6.0. I keep getting and itunes error...
I keep getting the error "This version of iTunes (10.6.1) is the current version." when I click the update button to update to the ios 6.0 software. I already have the most current version of iTunes installed so I have no clue why I am getting an error that has anything to do with itunes. I've tried restoring my phone multiple times and restarting my computer. I've made sure there is plenty of space open on my hard drive as well. Not really sure what else to do.
