ITunes account says apps need update, clicking on "Update" gives screen that says no updates available!

iTunes says my iPad has two apps that need updating, but when I click the link in iTunes the next page says there are no apps to be updated. This is daft.
I also have 2 iTunes accounts, one for the Swiss Store, the other for the UK store (for free apps only that speak English, I can't get many English language apps in Switzerland).
Any ideas what's wrong?

Which account are you logged in with on the iPad ? If the apps that need updating are linked to your other account, then you need to log out of your current account and log in with the other one (you can change account either via Settings > Store and touching your account id on the right-hand side and logging out, or via the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app).

HT4623 After getting message on my iPhone 4S to update to IOS6, I proceeded, it states my phone is up to date. However, when attempting to sync with my mac, Itunes does not recognize my device any longer and gives message that I must update Itunes. Did

Received a prompt to update my IPhone 4S to IOS6. I did this from phone. Then when syncing with my Mac/Itunes, it states my software is not up to date and I need to install new version of Itunes. I did this and it still is not recognizing my iPhone when syncing to ITunes. Also no longer can access mail as it states my Mac software is not up to date??? Help.

Which OS X version is your Mac running and which iTunes version is currently installed?

My grandad has a 1st edition iPad and when he tries to download certain apps it says he needs at least iOS 5? Shouldn't this be updated automatically? Or can this be updated another way? I haven't been to see his iPad so he may not be looking properly???

The iOS version is not updated automatically, though if he connects it to his computer's iTunes (if it's a recent enough version) he should be prompted as to whether he wants to update.
He should connect the iPad to his computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to his computer via File > Transfer Purchases. He may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. He can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
He can then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button
Updating to iOS 5+ : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
His iPad should update to iOS 5.1.1 (which is the only version that is 'signed' by Apple for the iPad 1, it doesn't support iOS 6).

when i try to open itunes on my macbook, it says it needs quicktime 7.5.5 to run. how do i update quicktime so i can run itunes?

QuickTime 7.5.5 for Leopard - http://support.apple.com/kb/DL27
QuickTime 7.7 for Leopard - http://support.apple.com/kb/dl761
= New version of Quicktime installed but application reports it needs to have that version installed =
Open Application > Utilities > System Profiler and check the Quicktime version in Frameworks vs. the version in Applications. One person had re-installed their operating system. It had kept the newer Player application but had reverted to an earlier version of the underlying support framework files which many applications utilize. Re-installing Quicktime 7.7 took care of the problem. Do this manually, not with Software Update.
Installation get stuck at "configuring installation" - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2592979?threadID=2592979 - uninstall Quicktime before installing.

Changing ITunes Account for Apps

How do I change my Itunes account for apps? When I go to update my apps, it still has my old account (my password does not work) and I have since created a new account (divorce issues). I have made a new password request for my old account and I do not get an email from Apple to do so. Everything else on my iphone is under my new account (Itunes, store, etc).
VERY FRUSTRATING!

How do I change my Itunes account for apps?
You can't. Apps are DRM protected & tied to the account used to originally purchase them. Contact iTunes support & request they add the apps in question to your download queue for your new account. Explain the situation & most likely, they will do so:

ITunes Account for Apps

Hi
Im trying to sign for a publisher account to download the iTues producer when I enter my info and cause Im a registered
app developer it gives me a message that this account is already asociated with app developing account so do i need 2
separate accounts one for apps and one for ibook publishing ?

Different accounts use different "usernames" which is in fact an email address. And yes each account can purchases apps, music, books etc,. BUT.... Apple require that a different account is required for:-
Free Books.
Paid Books
Developer account.
Although its at first it was OK to use a "standard" iTunes Account to open a free iBook account - its no longer allowed, so maybe the iTunes account also now needs to be a separate account from others.

The Three Best Alternatives for Security Questions and Rescue Mail
    1. Use Apple's Express Lane.
          Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the
          bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then
          'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Forgotten Apple
          ID security questions' and click 'Continue'. Please be patient waiting for the return
          phone call. It will come in time depending on how heavily the servers are being hit.
     2. Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contact Apple support.
     3. Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions.
A substitute for using the security questions is to use 2-step verification:

You are in Recovery Mode. Follow the instructions below to recover your iPad.
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port. (Make sure you have the latest version of iTune on your computer)
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button.
5. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad. Data will be lost.

You cannot.
The entire point of this is that you can redownload any and all of your past purchases.

My iphone 3gs is not working properly, when switched on it says 'Update Completed' as though it has just been updated. On the next screen it says to 'Connect to iTunes'. It doesn't, however, connect to iTunes and more often than not just resets itself.

My iPhone 3gs is not working properly and hasn't been since about September of last year. When switched on (Quite often it won't even turn on) it says 'Update Completed' as though it has just been updated. On the next screen it says to 'Connect to iTunes'. It doesn't, however, connect to iTunes and just resets itself over and over until power is gone. Occasionally after switching on and off a few times it functions normally for a few hours and some times even a couple of days but eventually always turns itself off and goes back to the 'Update Completed' screen. Does anyone know what might be causing this and/or a way of fixing it?
