ITunes app store update button not working

I'm using iTunes 11 on a windows 7 pc, and the problem is that the for apps with update available, the app page in the store is shown to be "downloaded" and not clickable, whereas in iTunes 10 the button says "update". I have a quite large app library with 1000+ apps and the checking for updates button does not always give all the available updates. And it's not latency issues because apps that have updates months before still show up in the store page as downloaded. Anyone else have this issue/bug? I really rely on the update button on the iTunes store page a lot, so any help wound be appreciated. Thanks!

Not sure about the layout on PC but try this.
(1) Starting at home screen (click the house icon top, middle). (2) Top right, click on Library button. (3) Next screen, top left, click the icon that says Music.  It will pull up a menu where you can select Apps (also movies, tv, etc).
At the bottom right you should see your update button for your apps and telling you the count of those.
Good luck

  • App Store Update Button Not Working

    On my iPad 3, recently I have had trouble accessing my updates.  When I open the App Store, the button at the bottom that says UPDATES indicates that I have 5 but when I touch the UPDATES button, nothing happens.  It does not move to the screen to indicate what the update are.  Each of the other buttons at the bottom: FEATURED, TOP CHARTS, GENIUS, AND PURCHASED. all perform properly.  UPDATES does not move off the home screen,  ideas?

    If you look there are quite literally hundreds of threads on this topic over the past few days. It's an issue with APple's servers.
    You can either wait it out, or if you go into the purchased tab you can download the updates manually or if you sync with a computer you can use iTunes on your computer to download the updates and then sync them onto your iPad.

  • After upgrading to 10.9.5, the App Store "Update" button stopped working.

    After upgrading from 10.9.4 to 10.9.5 tonight, the App Store "Update" button seems to have stopped working.  The App Store says I have one update available (Xcode version 6.0.1), but when I click "Update," the button turns white for a few seconds, and then it turns back to gray without doing anything.  I've tried the same steps after restarting my computer twice.
    A screen shot is below.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

  • App Store update is not working. Just see a white screen

    Does anyone know why my iPad App Store update has stopped working?

    Read this on iLounge posted by ahMEmon
    Go into Settings > General > International > Language and choose British English, then hit the Done button. The screen will go black with a comment about Language Settings. Be Patient, especially if you have a lot of apps. Let it run it's course and Then open the App Store again. Voila! Upgrade list is back. And it stuck when i changed back to plain English. He doesn't know why. I don't either. But I am now a happy camper. Worked on my 3rd gen iPad and iPad Mini.
    Hope it works for you!

  • App store Next button not working sometimes when searching for apps

    In the app store (using iPad with iOS 4.3.1), when i search for certain words and click on "See All", the next button does not always work. It is enabled (white) and there are more apps to be seen, but tapping either the one top or bottom simply does nothing. Other times, it works fine. I just started seeing this problem after applying the iOS 4.3.1 updates.

    Not sure about the layout on PC but try this.
    (1) Starting at home screen (click the house icon top, middle). (2) Top right, click on Library button. (3) Next screen, top left, click the icon that says Music.  It will pull up a menu where you can select Apps (also movies, tv, etc).

  • App Store featured button not working

    Using iOS 6.x
    In App Store went into Featured > Hidden Apps
    It showed my apps not installed on iPad but I can't cancel and get back to where I was
    Any ideas?
    Cheers
    Craig

    Along that line of thinking though, this did work:
    After Quitting the App Store app, re-launch it and the "Featured" button appears. If you leave it then it changes to the iPad and iPhone options, which is what gets you stuck. So, before it changes, press Featured and it takes you back to original App Store Featured page.
    Cheers for the catalytic thought.

    How can I get a refund for apps in the apple App Store that do not work and are not what they said they wer

    You've tried deleting and redownloading them and seeing if they then work and tried contacting the developers ? If you have and they can't/won't help then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • App Store updates will not load.

    App Store updates will not load. It shows that I have 4 updates but all I get is a blank white screen. I have also tried closing the app and restarting my ipad and it still will not work.

    Many people are having this problem for the last couple of days. According to Fly150 in another discussion, this will work.
    If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
    1. Go to App Store
    2. Select Purchased
    3. Select All
    4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
    5. Select update on the Apps
    This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store.

  • Download All updates button not working now?

    Just today, on multiple machines the Download All Updates button stopped working for App updates. I had to click each App Individually.
    I'm using iTunes 10..3.1

    I am also having this problem.  The automatic downloads is for new purchases only.  AG and I are trying to update existing APPs in iTunes and that is where there is an issue.  I too have to download each update individually and some APP updates won't update at all.
    Any helpful suggestions out there?
    I'm using iTunes 10.3.1 also.

  • App store update does not clear after update applied

    I just got my iphone not too long ago.  I updated yesterday via iTunes the applications on my iphone.  the app store still shows one of the apps, numbers as needing updating but the application is already updated.  How do I clear this spurious flag that should not be there?

    However this does point to a bug in the app store update feature.  There should be some way to force a check of applications that updated but are still showing as needed in the app store.

  • App Store updates will not show up on screen

    I currently have updates available, but when I go to the App Store update, nothing shows up on the screen.  Just the update indicator on the App Store icon showing the number 5.

    Try this workaround
    App Store>Purchased>Select "All"
    Note: Look out for apps that have the word "Update"
