IPhone 5 won't download apps. I click the button to purchase and it starts to install but then cancels it. help

Hi all,
I recently just got an iPhone 5 and I discovered that I am unable to download apps on the phone. The minute I click the download button on the apps store, the button will download, immediately stop, and return to having the plus sign signifying it didn't download and was unable to download. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? It did it on my iPhone 4 too, I got the iPhone 5 yesterday and restored it to my iPhone 4 so maybe that has something to do with it. HELP.

By the way it is able to update apps not download them so I'm very confused.

  • My DVD drive won't open when I click the button

    Hi there
    I'm hoping someone can help me.
    My DVD drive won't open when I click the button.
    I've tried clicking on eject on the DVD Drive icon in My Computers and it comes up with an error message.
    I think I deleted cookies the other day. Could that have anything to do with the problem?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated as I really don't want to send my laptop away to a technician.

    Hi
    Try to open the CD/DVD drive manually.
    Near the eject button you will find a small hole.
    You could use a small object like staple and could push it carefully into this hole.
    Usually this should helps to open the drive manually.

  • I would like to delete all Apps archived in the clouds of "purchased" and not in used now and in the future. How is possible to remove definitively these Apps?

    I would like to delete all Apps archived in the clouds of "purchased" and not in used now and in the future. How is possible to remove definitively these Apps. Thank you

    All you can do is hide them from your purchased list.  You cannot permaneently delete anything from your purchased history.
    Also, these are not stored in your iCloud account storage space.  The purchases reside in the online store and all you see is a list of those purchases made with your account, with a cloud-link to redownload them, but you are merely re-downloading them directly from the store.

  • I want to open new tabs with other ones open. So I click the + button for tabs and it does nothing. I right click and click new tab and still nothing. How do I get that feature to work again.

    I click the + button to open a new tab and it doesn't do anything, not even open a new tab. I try to right click and open a new tab and still don't work. But if I right click a link and click open in new tab it will work. How do I get to open my tabs again with the + button?

    Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened.
    There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
    * Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
    * Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons

  • Iphone 4 won't download app updates

    My iPhone 4 stalls when downloading updates - IOS 6.0.1. The App store finds & lists available updates, but when I click on install the updates freeze and after a while I get a message saying the download can't be completed at this time. This also freezes the app, so in order to use it I have to delete and restore the app. I thought it was a WiFi issue, but this has been happening for a while even after several iPhone resets and while using strong WiFi. Has anyone experienced this problem and found a solution?

    Check out iforgot.apple.com and reset your password!

    Hi rixa03!
    I have a couple of troubleshooting steps for you to try to resolve this issue. First, you should try closing the app according to the instructions found on this website, which is a troubleshooting assistant for the iPad:
    Apple - Support - iPad - iPad Troubleshooting Assistant
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/assistant/ipad/#section_3
    If the issue persists, you may need to try resetting the iPad, the instructions for which can be found here:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • What happen to itunes download button on the download page? I can't download itunes by clicking the button. It seems not clickable

    I tried to download itunes to my new laptop that run on Windows 8 64-bit but seems like the download button on the download page is just an image which is not clickable. I tried on my old laptop that run on Windows 7 Home Premium, the button still as an image which is not clickable. Anybody face the same issue? How you solve it?

  • How do I download my previously purchased songs (on a different computer) on a PC running XP? I have followed the instructions but none of it allows me to download my songs. I deauthorized all computers and authorized this one only but it didn't help.

    I had to change computers and cannot access my old drive. iTunes shows me the list of songs but I cannot get most to play. Instead I get a message saying "cannot locate"
    I have tried following the support tutorials but it still does not allow me to download my previous purchases.
    I tried de-authorizing all computers and then re-authorizing this on but it still doesn't allow me to access most of my songs.

    It sounds like you might have broken links to your content. Either repair these by putting the files you've recovered where iTunes expects to find them or delete the broken entries then go to iTunes Store > Purchased > Music > Not on This Computer, and click the download links.
    If you have an Apple device see also Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

  • I fully downloaded an audiobook on my iPad and it started working fine but then it stopped reading my book. How can I get it to work again?

    I downloaded an audiobook and it started working but then it stopped. Is there anyway I can redownload my audiobook so that it starts working completely?

    This is a ridiculous policy and it interferes with how most people would listen to an audio book since they are quite lengthy. I'm traveling, so I throw the audio book on using my iPad and I get 60% of the way through the book on my trip. I come home, I want to listen to the rest of it via iTunes on my stereo through AirPlay. And this can't be done?
    This is the last audiobook I buy from iTunes until they *fix* this... and it IS something that requires fixing whether that means negotiating more aggressively with the audiobook providers or changing something at the software layer. It completely ruins many peoples' experience!
    It's funny because a friend of mine suggested buying it, then downloading it from a torrent just so I could use the book the way I wanted to use the book. Is it not sad that to create a positive overall user experience you have to resort to downloading something off a torrent?
    iTunes is supposed to make things easy and accessible. I agree with jamusick's posting -- this isn't the vision Steven Jobs had for the future. This is a road block on the way there.

  • In my itunes account, I have a message that says I have 1 item awaiting download, when I click the button nothing happens.

    In my itunes account I have a message, that I have 1 awaiting download, when I push then button nothing happens.

    That sounds like the "90 day switch" rule related to changing Apple IDs.  Whenever you enable automatic downloads, turn on iTunes Match or download previous purchases your device or computer becomes "associated" with the ID currently in use.  Once associated in this way you cannot change to another ID for a period of 90 days (read more here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627).  I suspect this rule was necessary to prevent piracy as it prevents one from quickly signing into a number of their friend's IDs and download their purchased content.

  • Firefox is not showing up at all, I will click on the application and it start to work but then after 2 seconds, its stops working.

    I will try to start firefox and then it stops working. It will work for about 2 seconds and then it goes to a blank screen. The screen is transparent and i can see my desk top threw firefox. I have uninstalled it and reinstalled it and firefox still will not work on my computer. I have run scans on my computer as well to see if it was a virus that was preventing it from running. If anyone could help me I would be very greatful.

  • IPhone 4 won't download from app store

    iPhone 4 won't download apps from app store. They start and then hang. This all started after I had to reset and restore
    My phone.

    This issue is happening on older editions of the phone as well.  I'm experiencing the issue with my 3GS and have the same issue when actually using iTunes on my MacBook.
