ITunes won't update apps on iPhone

Hi there,
I have iTunes 10 and an iPhone 3GS. The iTunes 10 is on a Mac Mini with Snow Leopard fitted. Just recently, the apps showing on iTunes no longer reflect the apps installed on the iPhone nor the screens in which they are loacted. Also when I try to download apps from iTunes to the iPhone, it won't transfer them I've tried restoring the phone from a backup, I've installed 4.2 (which may be the source of the problem ?) but none of them have worked yet.
Does anyone have any ideas ?
Thanks,
Ben

My iTunes Won't update apps

My iTunes Won't update apps when i click check update it say"your iTunes library is up-to date"
awhen i check update From iPhone the it update all apps which are out dated

It sounds like you've already done the things that would fix most iPhones.
You can try restoring your iPhone.
If that doesn't do it, try contacting Apple through Express Lane. They may be able to gather some aditional logs and pinpoint the exact problem.

Itunes hangs or won't update apps on iphons 5s

itunes 11.1.5 hangs and returns unknown error (0xE800002D) when sync with iphone 5s

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 personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; 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.
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 Fusion Drive or 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.

ITunes won't sync app to iPhone 4

I recently purchased the Batman: Arkham City Lockdown app through the app store on my 15" macbook pro.
When I try to sync to my iPhone 4 it just unchecks it in iTunes and doesn't sync.
I don't know if it's related to the large file size of the app, or what but I could use some help.

Download the app from your device instead of iTunes . The app downloaded from iTunes are affected by bugs. So download the apps from your device App Store

My Apps won't update on my iPhone 4 with iOS6

I strated to updated all my Apps, through the App Store App on my phone - usually it would do this via the wifi slowly app by app. But not this time. It just said they were all waiting!
So I updated all the Apps in my itunes on my PC, but they won't update on my iphone (4) with iOS6.
During the sync it says it is installing on all of the Apps that need updates (now about 20 as have been trying for days to sort out) get half way through the 'installing process' and then when the sync has 'finished' all the updating apps are half way through and just stop.
Have tried to delete apps on handset in order to reload but won't let me, as it says they are all waiting.....
Help this is driving me mad and I cant use things like my dropbox app which I need for work as it is waiting to update.....
A message pops up saying: Unable to Dowmload Applications 'Dropbox and 18 other applications could not be installed at this time.

Not sure.
Perhaps you can explain the symptoms? What is happening on your phone.

TS1368 Verizon iPhone 4 won't update apps

For about two weeks now, my Verizon iPhone 4 (ios 5.1.1) won't update apps from the update feature. I can make purchases and otherwise access my account, but although the red icon appears to tell me that there are updates available, I receive the message "Cannot connect to iTunes Store" when I open the apps app. I have no trouble updating the apps manually (by searching for the app and choosing "install" I am prompted to update.) But I can't update automatically by using the updates icon on the App Store menu.
I have a 4th gen iPod and iPad 3 as well, and they have no trouble updating normally on the same network; nor does my computer. I can't find any reference to anyone else having this problem; can anyone help?
FYI, I have already tried every solution I've seen posted on this site to no avail. They only seem to address the issue of not being able to access the iTunes store at all; I ONLY have this issue with the update function -- purchases and manual updates work fine.

Thanks for the suggestion, but unfortunately, the app that is problematic is the App Store app, which is undeletable. Nothing else is giving me a problem.
I did eventually find a thread discussing this problem, and all the solutions are work-arounds, such as update from iTunes on my computer and then sync to my phone. This does work, but it's a bit of a pain to have to do that in order to update. I'd really like to just do it automatically from the device, the way it was intended to work.

I got a new iphone 4 today. I have updated my itunes to the latest update but my itunes won't sync with my iphone. Does anybody know why this might be?

IPhone 6 plus not getting right iTunes account when updating apps

New iPhone 6 plus. I have iTunes store and app store logged in to the right iTunes accounT. However, when I try to update apps it is asking me to sign into a different iTunes account I don't have the pasword for and don't want to use (my Mac book used to be my sisters...my phone is trying to log in to her iTunes when I update apps). Any idea how I can make it pick up the right account?

Whose account downloaded those apps ? If you copied from them your sister's computer and she downloaded them onto that computer then they will be tied to her account - you will need to delete the apps from your phone (which will delete their content) and redownload them on your account for you to be able to download future updates on them on your account

Ipad won't update apps on new iMac but iPhone will when sync'd with usb

Hello,
I have the new imac and exported my itunes library from my old imac. I updated my apps in itunes. Then I sync'd my iphone 4s via the USB cable and it backed up and updated apps. Saw it processed steps 1 thru 7 (7 is update apps on iphone). Disconnected ipad 3 to new imac via USB cable and it only performs steps 1 thru 6. The apps will not update unless I click the "update" button on the itunes screen. Anyone else encounter this and any solution? Thanks!

Well I resolved it, by right clicking on the devices (for my ipad) and clicking "Sync".
