My apps have all froze while updating, how do I fix this?

Ive had a weak wifi connection while I was trying to update my apps.  They have frozen and are unable to open

If the downloads are stalled or "waiting" - try these suggestions.
1. Tap the "waiting" icon and see if you can pause it. If it does pause, then tap it again and see if it will resume. If that works, repeat the same steps for each "waiting" icon.
2. Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
3. Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
4. If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
5. You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again. Apps may also be able to be deleted in Settings>General>Usage>Storage if you cannot get the X to pop up on the icon.
6. You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered.
7. If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.

    Hey there FlamingTurd!
    If you are having issues connecting to the App Store on your phone, there is an article here that can help you troubleshoot this issue a little further:
    Can't connect to the iTunes Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1368
    We also have an article that deals with troubleshooting apps you have downloaded from the App Store and installed on your computer. That article can be found here:
    iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1702
    Finally, if neither of those articles resolve the issue, you may need to restore your iPad:

    Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

    It seems Apple is having some issues at their end. There have been hundreds of posts on the forum with the same problem.

  • HT1349 I updated my Itunes and my entire library disappeared including all my playlists.  How do I fix this?

    I updated my Itunes and my entire library disappeared including all my playlists.  How do I fix this?

    Are they really gone?  Look in your Home > Music > iTunes folder and folders inside. Do you see media there?  Also try to use Spotlight to search for things you know you have.
    If you keep media on an external drive, are they there?  If it is all there, try starting iTunes with the option key held down and guide to the external.
    If really gone, use a backup of your drive to restore the iTunes folder.
    If no backup and they are really gone, you can download some items from Apple again.  You'll have to re-construct the library though as all the playlists, ratings, date added, and some other things will be gone.

  • Podcasts won't sync to the podcast portion of the built in Music App on my iPod Touch.  How do I fix this?

    Ever since I downloaded the new Apple Podcast App my Podcasts that I subscribe to in iTunes have not worked correctly.   I have deleted the Apple Podcast App because it does not work well and I'd rather have the functionality with Podcasts that the sync from iTunes to the built in Music App has.  However, now I can't get the podcasts I subscribe to to show up in the original app.  My iTunes says that all the podcasts are being synced and it is checked to sync them and even the data storage indicator bar at the bottom shows the amount of space being taken up as if the podcasts did sync but when I go into my iPod Touch in the music app they are not there.  How do I fix this?  Thanks!

    What you're really doing is trying to create a new icloud account using an ID that is not currently associated with a user's account.  A device can only do this a fixed number of times (3 or 5, don't remember), after which you must use a different device or computer to create the account.

  • I tunes can't find original song files of all my songs.  How do I fix this?

    I tunes can't find original song files of all my songs.  How do I fix this?

    Itunes stores ripped cds in the 'itunes' folder called 'itunes music' which under normal installation should reside into your 'My music' folder. Your music folders on the DVD then have to be copied into the 'Itunes music' folder for itunes to find it.
    The tracks with the exclamation marks have registered with the incorrect location into the library. You can do two things:
    Either search in the folder where you copied them from the DVD at the earlier step described above which means that you will have to do this for every single track, or the fastest way, delete all the incorrect entries and re-import by drag and drop into library the folders with the music you want to show in the library.

    I see you posted this in BASIC phones - what phone do you have?  Perhaps it's not capable of running the apps you are trying to download?  Maybe there's not enough memory to install the app?

    Did you check your security software (firewall)?
    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.

    Visual Voicemail is all carrier side, funny enough. Apple can't really do anything to troubleshoot it because it's outside of their realm. Be sure to contact your cellular carrier for further assistance

  • HT4623 My iPhone 4 doesn't ask "Software Update" how do I fix this?

    I purchased my iPhone 4 when they first came out and I decided I wanted to get iCloud and for that it required an update. I want to update my phone so it is updated and have access to iCloud. However, When I go into settings - general there is no option "Software Update" how can I fix this?
    And I dont have access to an original computer anymore

    Taht way of updating only becomes available when you are running iOS 5.  Below that, you still have to wire the phone to iTunes on your computer and update from there.
