My apps won't update

I can no longer use applications such as Craig'slist, groupon, games or other misc. they are grayish on my screen. When I tap to update it appears it is updating but does not. I have went to the apple store and it shows all the same programs need to update. I click each one and nothing happens. I can click on the update all but then it just appears to be thinking and never does. I have not been able to update in a month now more and more applications are going to this stautus.
Please let me know if I am doing something wrong or what I need to do to get them to update so I can use the programs again.  I am not sure what system I am using. It is a basic iPad and it has whatever it came with?
Thank you

Same thing here. I updated to IOS 5 two days ago and now apps won't load nor will they updated. I can not open a PDF, get a grey screen instead. Everything was fine until update...which by the way made me have to reload all my apps, music, books because it reset Ipad 2 to original settings.. C'mon Apple peeps, how can we fix this !?!?!? HELP!!

    You may of had a corrupted install. Connect to iTunes backup then restore. Or update the apps on itunes then sync to the iPhone

  • IPhone apps won't update, iTunes Store won't open

    I can't figure out why my apps won't update on my iPhone. I have rebooted, deleted the apps that wouldn't update and froze (waiting) and rebooted after that. I may not have the greatest wifi connection ... I am out of town and dependent on hotel/convention center wifi. Went to App Store to reload the deleted apps (some), but same thing.  I saw a response regarding iTunes, went there...took forever for iTunes to open, it kept stating I couldn't access iTunes Store, and after hitting "okay" probably 4 times to confirm that iTunes wouldn't open...it did.  So I thought that was the problem and returned back to App Store and tried to reload just one app.  Well it's been an hour and a half or more, can't reload it. It creeps along and I thought the app was loaded, but no. I can reboot only, not reset because I am no in home like I said. This is more than "fairly frustrating". What the heck can I do?

    Do a hard reset by pressing and holding the sleep/wake button and home button together until apple logo appears.

    I would do a restore using iTunes.  This will re-install the latest iOS 6 with factory settings, then you'll have to re-enter your settings and re-install your apps.  But everything should work after that.

  • Does iTunes Connect Christmas break mean apps won't update with new folios over Christmas?

    I have 2 folios that are due to be released to my app this Christmas - both fall within the 22nd-29th window iTunes have chosen to close down.
    So even though I can publish my folios through DPS over Christmas and pre-plan my app description in iTunes accordingly - before the 22nd - will those published folios not appear in my app?
    Thanks.

    You mean updating a paid folio... don't know if that needs approving, too.
    Maybe someone else can chime in here (I have no exp in that)

  • The Apple ID has been changed on my iPad but the apps won't update with the new id and password, including the apps that came with the iPad so I can't delete and reinstall with new Apple ID

      What do you do if you have bought a used iPad and the apps won't update without the original id and password.  Can't delete the apps that come with the iPad and reinstall them so what do I do?

    Correct. An app can only be updated under the Apple ID that was used to orginally acquire the app. If that is a problem you can delete the app and download again under the new userid. If you paid for the app you will have to pay again. Your old Apple ID does not go away so there is no reason to not use it to download the apps.
    You cannot delete the apps that came with IOS. If you want to "hide" the apps simply put the apps into an application folder by dragging one app onto another. You can do this to all the IOS apps.

  • Apps won't update on iPad

    Arrrrggghhh!   My iPad is buggered. I have 36 updates waiting and none of them will update. I'm away for the holidays so can't connect to my computer.  I've tried powering off normally and doing a hard reboot (power + home) - nothing.  It shows the black bar across the bottom of the app but nothing is happening.  I've done the software update to 5.0.1.  And when I click on just one app to be updated is says that it can't be downloaded at this time. 
    Please help....

    I bought a new iPad in 2012. Everything was fine, but now two apps won't update. Message: "Unable to download application. Could not be downloaded at this time." I have 30GB free space. Affects Sketchpad Pro and Adobe Touch. The biggest problem is that I can't use the apps!!!!! I'm okay with using an older version but this update cycle has locked me out of using them at all. Yes, my iTunes is up-to-date and synched to the correct time zone.

  • My apps won't update and new apps won't download..help?

    I have ipad with retina display and my apps won't update and new apps won't download

    Is your iPad restricted?
    Check Settings > General > Restrictions

  • My apps won't update, stuck on waiting.

    My apps won't update, they have that grey bar on them. Every time I try to update them it says , unable to load. Please help?!?

    If you're stuck within an app or you've noticed a problem, simply hold both the home button and sleep/wake button at the same time. It's important to keep your fingers on these buttons until step 3.
    After a few seconds the red ‘slide to power off' screen will appear, simply ignore this. Ensure your fingers are still holding down the home and sleep/wake switch.
    Shortly after you should see the Apple logo, it's now safe to let go of the iPad's buttons. Your iPad should now boot, beware this process can take up to 15 minutes or so.

  • My apps won't update on my iPad 1.

    My apps won't update on my iPad 1. I tried resetting the iPad and updating it on my iTunes. They say they are waiting and in the meantime I can't use those apps at all.

    Do you have a song or podcast in iTunes that did not finish downloading? If you do - finish that one first. The apps will not update until that download is complete.
    If that doesn't do it - sign out of your account - Settings>Store>Apple ID - sign out. Restart the iPad. 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>Store>Sign in and sign in again and see if you can tap on one app and start the download.

  • Since iOs 6 down loaded My Apps won't update.

    Since iOs 6 down loaded My Apps won't update. I have had quite a few apps that needed to be updated when I tap the update button it says updating but nothing happens.  The apps have been sitting dark with the word "Waiting" no lines moving across them like they are updating. It has been going on for about four days I don't know what to do I? Please help I can't us these apps and I have others that need updating but I am afraid to do it?

    I just had this same problem.  Others in this discussion area suggested powering off their iPad and then powering back up.  This worked for me and now all of my apps are updated.  Hope this might help.

    You can't all apps are tied to the apple id that was used to purchase/download it.

    Thanks SerZak!  I lost my reply to your post.  But I discovered I was logged out after the update.  I logged back in and it was sorted.  I wouldn't have worked this out on my own, so thank you for you help.  Much appreciated. 

  • Since updating my iPhone 4S, existing apps won't update and cannot update new apps even after deleting apps to make room. What can I do?

       Whenever I try to download a new app, I receive an error message that the app can't be downloaded at this time, try again later. Also, existing apps won't update. I have tried deleting apps to make more room, but so far nothing has helped.

    Does it also ask you to contact itunes support?

  • I have a 5 year old MacBook running OS X v10.5.8  Of course Apple does not provide an OS update and then other software apps won't update because the OS is obsolete. Is there a way of upgrading the hardware so the software can be made current?

    The 2 places I’ve seen recommended most to buy reliable RAM are below. I have purchased RAM several times from Other World Computing and have always been very satisfied with the product and service. They have on-line instructions on how to replace the RAM. OWC has also tested RAM above what Apple states is the maximum. I now have 6GB installed on a early 2008 iMac supposedly limited to 4 GB and noticed an improvement.

  • Apps won't update after 8.0.2 update

    After experiencing some of the issues reported elsewhere regarding the 8.0.2 update for iPad 2, I was finally able to get it to update via iTunes.  However, now my apps won't update on the iPad 2.  They start to update and then freeze at the start. 

    I too am having some of these problems as well.
    The App Store has now become "unavailable" and two other apps are unable to communicate with their respective networks (in South Korea). Safari has become unresponsive ("Safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding").  The Dolphin browser has also just become unresponsive after having worked for several days!
    The UI has become periodically sluggish in scrolling and zooming.
    I have no music or video on this iPad either and it is not broken.  I updated from 7 to 8.1, thinking any bugs would be squashed but this is clearly not the case.
    Would resetting this device help or would that simply make matters worse? This situation is really bad.  If I can not use my iPad for work, I will be forced to buy and use a Samsung notebook tablet, which I never wanted but I need something that is reliable and this is not.
