ITunes 7.7.1 says there's an update for 1 app but there isn't...

I'm just wondering why iTunes keeps telling me there is one update available for my account (for the apps that I have downloaded) but when I click on Applications (under library) and then select "1 Update Available" at the bottom right, I then get redirected to the "My App Updates" portion of the Apple store, only to get a message that says my account "has no updates currently available. To check for updates for another account, sign in with that account."
I'm wondering how I can get that pesky update notice to go away. My iPod Touch tells me all apps are up to date when I check the updates portion of the App Store on the iPod Touch.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I could do to get rid of this false alert or why this is happening?

Hi,
Try deleting it then redownloading.
Generally I think the Apps Store has quite a few early bugs that will take a while to iron out. I don't think there is much the user can do about them at the moment.
Good luck,
Dud.

HT4623 my phone says i have updates for my apps but when i open update screen it is blank. Phone badge sais 2 updates yesterday and now it says 4.

my phone says i have updates for my apps but when i open update screen it is blank? its driving me crazy

Close the App Store app, double click the home button, press and hold the App Store icon until it wiggles, press the X, open the App Store app again and you should see your updates.

Time Machine says backup is too large for backup disk -- but it isn't...

I have a MacBook Pro with a 120GB drive and a 120GB external drive I use for Time Machine. Everything went fine for months until my laptop's drive got close to full (about 3GB of free space). Then Time Machine started saying it didn't have enough room to complete a backup: "needs 10GB but only 8.6GB is available"
So I told it to stop backing up my iTunes movies (about 7GB). Still didn't work -- same error message (the actual values may have changed some, I don't remember).
Next, I added another 10GB do the "do not back up" list. Still didn't work. Finally, I deleted (actually deleted, not just said "don't back up") about 5GB of files and emptied the Trash.
Now it says it needs 15.9GB of space to do a backup and only 8.6 is available... ??? I've restarted the machine several times, still doesn't work.
My solutions seem to be making it worse. Makes no sense to me.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Peter,
Unfortunately, Apple hasn't documented this very well. However, those of us who know how Time Machine works behind the scenes know this to be true. Of course, Time Machine can back up a given machine at least once with only slightly more space on the backup drive than needed, but subsequent backups will fail.
I have to disagree, though, that most people would fill a 250 GB hard drive. I have what I would consider a "just barely manageable" amount of data in my HOME folder, and my installation clocks in at about 100 GBs. Those "big ticket" items that would tend to bloat my HOME folder- iTunes videos, folders of huge images, etc.- I regularly place on some form of external storage when I no longer need them, removing them from my HOME folder. In fact, I have a partition on an external drive just for the storage of iTunes videos that have already been watched.
If your installation is filling a 250 GB hard drive, you might consider your file management, and just what is consuming so much disk space. It could be that you have some data that would be better stored externally.
Those that would benefit most from using a Time Capsule are those using portable computers, since these are the least convenient to connect directly to an external drive. Certainly, it doesn't make sense to have a portable connected directly to an external to allow hourly backups, which could occur easily when using a Time Capsule. And, I dare say that most portable computer users have internal drives smaller than 250 GBs. I know I certainly do.
All this said, your question is really whether or not a Time Capsule is right for you. If you are filling a 250 GB hard drive, the 500 GB model would do, but just barely. Adding a second machine, also using all of a 250 GB hard drive, wouldn't be possible. In this case, even the 1 TB model would be just barely enough, if that. Again, you might want to consider your file management, or just stick with directly-connected external drives for use with Time Machine. There are scenarios where a Time Capsule makes sense, and scenarios where directly-connected solutions are better.

After apple wiped my hard drive, my computer no longer recognizes my iphone 4. It will charge, but doesn't show up in my sidebar or in itunes. My computer says there are no software updates available. I'm running OSX 10.5.8 and itunes is 10.3.1.

HT4623 I lost my apps and iTunes after a restore, but it says there isn't enough space on the iPhone 4. How do I know how much space needs to be freed up? I keep deleting photos and videos, but I'm still getting the same message.

I did an iphone 4 software update. It then asked me to do a "restore" in order for me to be able to use the latest iTunes. I did a "restore" to "factory settings" (this was the only option listed) thinking I'd be able to sync later and get everything back and ended up losing all my purchased apps and iTunes. When I open iTunes, "Welcome to your new iphone" and it says I can re-do the "restore" and choose my lastest update. I assume this will give me back my apps and iTunes. When i choose to do this, it says there isn't enough space on the iPhone. How do I know how much space needs to be freed up? I keep deleting photos and videos from the phone, but I'm still getting the same message every time I re-try. I don't want to delete everything, but I don't know what to do...? Thanks!

Thanks but I think it has something to do with the 'restore'. in the newest iTunes 11, when I click on the tab "iphone", it redirects me to the "welcome to your new iphone" page and asks about doing a 'restore'. I already did a 'restore', but it went to the original factory settings and I want to 'restore' to my lastest back up as of April 12. When I choose that option, it says my iphone doesn't have enough space. I don't know how much I need to delete in order to make it work. I've deleted lots, but it only has 4.1 GB available. I'm not sure why this isn't enough to do a 'restore'. I don't want to delete all my photos and videos, but maybe I will have to?...7.7GB is used up for that. I can't sync or do ANYTHING...

When I try to update my iPod touch, a message saying there isn't enough space on my computer appears and all media on my iPod will be lost, should I proceed with the update?

My iTunes Library is on my computer, I have done a backup manually, and all of my music is on an external hard drive (as well as my iTunes library).

Thanks a lot Recycle bin is empty, I will move some files from the C drive to an external hard drive, then do the update, and then move the files back. Any files you recommend not moving to the external hard drive at all?

HT201209 I have a redeem code for an app but it says its a USA code, and I live in the UK, is there anything I can do?

I have a redeem code for an app but it says its a USA code, and I live in the UK, is there anything I can do?

iTunes gift cards can only be used in the country in which they are issued - so US gift cards can only be used with US-based iTunes accounts. Do you know anybody in the US that you could sell/give the card to ? Or you could just sell the card.

I just found my old ipod touch (i think 1st generation) and would like to let my toddler use it instead of my phone. I am trying to download apps but it say I need to update to 4.3 but it won't let me update. I have the most recent itunes. any idea why?

I saw a thread saying to purchase the newest software (that was posted a few years ago) I paid 4.95 for the software and it's still saying it can't be updated. Am I just SOL??

The 1G iPod can only go as high as 3.1.3. The 1G does not have an internal speaker or volume buttons on the upper left edge.

Well where is your library located now if not in the iTunes folder? See the links below on what your iTunes folder should look like and put it back together:

Ask the person who owns the iPhone.
Which version of Cydia appears on the iPhone - the one
with the black and white icon or a different one?
If it was jailbroken, contact the developers of the jailbreak.
Not all jailbreaks can be completely removed.
Google may provide some direction.

I buy for mac app but not for the iPad, so how do I reinstall a program that has already purchased? I need help because I bought the imovie'11 but when he opened it only brought 8 movie trailer templates instead of the 15 it says on the program. How do I solve this problem? Once paid for a program incomplete. I also liked that the AppStore itself had a button to reinstall programs already bought, because it is very hard to understand how to do this in the store, only option is to install and hide purchase, and how do I reinstall, attention'm talking about reinstalling a computer mac, not an ipad or iphone.
Thank you.

HT4623 When connecting my iphone to my computer, message appears: iphone cannot be used because itunes needs to be updated. I updated on my Mac, but it isn't transferring to my phone. Tried looking at software updates on my phone - "no updates needed"

Okay, that means with the latest iOS software, it requires the latest version of iTunes on the computer. Which computer OS platform are you using. Now you are saying that after downloading the latest version of iTunes that your iPhone is not being recognized by iTunes? Completely different thing, and the iTunes on the iPhone has nothing to do with that anyway. The iTunes on the iPhone is just for purchases.
If you are having trouble with the iPhone being recognized by iTunes, use the appropriate link for your computer OS for assistance.

ITunes keeps offering updates for deleted Apps

I have a problem with App Updates in iTunes. There are 6 applications, which I tried, but then uninstalled and removed from iPhone and iTunes library. Still iTunes shows me that I have 6 updates available and when I look at them they all are for the applications I have uninstalled and don't care anymore. How do I stop it from showing updates for deleted Apps?
Thank you!
Konstantin

Does anyone have an answer for this, as I am having the same issue. The apps are not on my phone or in my itunes account, but when i check my available updates, two updates for apps I no longer have automatically start downloading. It has done this for a few weeks. I have tried allowing the updates to download and then re-remove the apps, but then the same thing will happen with the same 2 updates the next day.
