My app downloading has frozen and will not download?

I was trying to download an app and nothing happens. Have a blank square that just says "waiting".

Hello pjfrancis,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with downloading an app.
I recommend tapping on the app to change the status to Paused and tapping once more to initiate the download of the app as suggested in this featured discussion:
App updates won't download on my iPhone, they just say waiting.

My book download has paused and will not download

Trying to download a book to my iPad 1 and it has paused and will not restart. I have since successfully downloaded another book ( sample) and also it's downloaded too my phone- I cannot delete the partial download - or sync from my iMac
Any thoughts?
many thanks

Hello Louise,
I would be eager to download a book I purchased as well. I found a couple of resources that might help with downloading this purchase.
First, I recommend checking to see if the download was interrupted. You can use the steps in this article:
iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1725
If the book does not download after following the steps in that article, I recommend trying to download the book from the list of past purchases. As long as you are signed in with the same Apple ID you used to purchase the book, you will not be charged again. You can find the steps to do this in the following article:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
If you are still not able to download the book, I recommend reporting this issue to the iTunes Store:

OS X Mavericks download has paused and will not restart. How can I get it to restart?

OS X Mavericks download has paused and will not restart. How can I get it to restart?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
First, see if the download is paused and if you can resume it. To do so, open the Mac App Store, go to Purchases and press "Resume" next to OS X Mavericks.
If the download does not carry on, I would recommend you to restart and start the download all over again.

How to download the same song(track) with different keys? iTunes seems to think I have already downloaded the song and will not download the song in a different key of the Demo Track

How to download the same song(track) with different keys? iTunes seems to think I have already dowloaded the song and will not let me download the song in a different key or the Demo.

Hello Jigz19,
It sounds like you are unable to play a couple of songs from your library becuase you get a message that the computer is unauthorized to play, but other content purchased that same day works without issue. I would verify that the affected songs were purchased with the same Apple ID first:
Recovering a forgotten iTunes Store account name
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1920
Open iTunes
Highlight one of the items you have purchased (You can find your purchases in your Purchases playlist).
Choose File > Get Info.
Click the Summary tab.
The Account Name area will list the account used to purchase the item. Unless you have changed accounts, this is your iTunes Store account name.
If so, then delete the songs:

Then re download them with this article:

Can't upgrade iWork 09 to iWork 13, App Store shows INSTALLED and will NOT download

When I purchased a MBP in 2010 it came with iWork 09. Each time I launch either Keynote, Pages, or Numbers it tells me there is a new version available and asks if I would like to install. If I say "YES" I get taken to the app store and each of the apps says "INSTALLED" and does not have a download option.
I tried manually moving /Applications/iWork 09 to /tmp but when I revisit the app store it wants to charge me for the free upgrade.
No idea how to fix this.
I wanted to demo this cool new collaboration feature, but it looks like it will have to wait.

DO NOT GET IWORK 13!!!!!!! IT REDUCES FUNCTIONALITY AND CANNOT OPEN OLD KEYNOTES!!!!! IT DOES NOT SUPPORT EVERYTHING THAT IT USED TO!!!!! ITS NOT WORTH THE EFFORT!!!!!!!!

My music screen has frozen and will not respond to my touch

my 32g iPod touch will not respond to my touch while i am in my music library. i can navigate through my iPod and access my apps, calendar, etc., but as soon as i try to get into my music and browse through it, nothing. it has done this before, but it usually "snaps out of it", and eventually begins to work properly. i purchased this iPod brand new in march 2012, so in my opinion it should not be acting up. anyone have any idea as to what is going on with it?

Try the standard fixes:
- Reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod

Phone has frozen and will not switch on

Twitter was not working so I unistalled it from Iphone. Reinstalled it but the phone then froze. Turned phone off but now it will not switch back on and is frozen on the apple screen. Help

Connect iPhone to Wall Charger and Reset, hold both Home and Power buttons until the iPhone begins to restart. Usually takes less than 20 seconds time of holding both buttons.
If this does not work you may need to Restore the iPhone Firmware. If you decide to Restore the Firmware, connect iPhone to computer with iTunes open, hold both Home and Power buttons until the iPhone is recognized in Recovery Mode, Restore the Firmware. Again usually takes about 20 seconds of holding both buttons.

My iPad has frozen and will not resume?

I was viewing my email on my iPad 2 (64gb) and I have the multi tasking gestures on so I went to close my email using my fingers and then it froze and now all I can see on the screen is black in the background and a small 10cmx5cm box which has my email on it. I can lock my screen by pushing the button on the top right hand of tablet but when i click the button again it takes me back to the screen I was previously on!
Please help! Thanks

Purchased book "The Fish That Ate The Whale". In the Purchased window, my previous purchased books are labeled "downloaded" but The Fish has a cloud ikon and will not download. I have tried to delete the book but no response.
Redirected to Store and searched for The Fish. Description came up, pressed Download, message: you have previously purchased this book, go to Purchased and press Download. Followed instructions and message: you have previously purchased....... I'm in a loop.
Assistance requested

Hi there.
Thank you very much for your quick reply, it's really appreciated.
No need to apologize, I actually found the phrase "If your iPad ever craps the bed" amusing under the circumstances
I checked the list of installed apps like you suggested (Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Show all apps) but this problem app is not in the list. I have also swiped down on the home screen to search for it, but again it does not show.
While it has not let me download the app (and I just tried it again) it has helped me to eliminate a few things from the list of what to try, and I can definitely conclude that it has not downloaded.
I guess I need to fire up my PC and download it / sync my iPad.
Thanks again for your help

Tried to upgrade to osx 10.9 from 10.7 and I didn't notice that it downloads in the launcher. I turned my mac off and ever since then it has glitched out and will not download no matter what I do. I have had it for 3 years which is out of warranty.

Tried to upgrade to osx 10.9 from 10.7 and I didn't notice that it downloads in the launcher. I turned my mac off and ever since then it has glitched out and will not download no matter what I do. I have had it for 3 years which is out of warranty. It now has a blank bar under the launch pad and no matter how many times I try re-downloading it or restarting my computer it does not work. I use too play starcraft and other games on this computer although new patched/updates have made it that I can no longer do that now. Really frustrating having to deal with this especially after buying this computer upfront and now out of warranty.

Go to your Applications folder and find a file called "Install OS X Mavericks". Send it to the trash and delete it. Then try the download again.

Newstand will not let me make in-app purchases. Any ideas ? Already deleted and reinstalled magazine app . (Maxim) new issues will not download, already checked settings .

Have restrictions been enabled?
Is it possible that in app purchases have been restricted? Also is it possible that there could be restrictions in place regarding content? Could ratings be in place for the magazines?
