My appstore 'install' button won't work properly after being tapped. How do I fix this?

After I tap the button displaying the price, it moves to the right and becomes a small square/rectangle, then stutters and moves to the lft, become green and saying 'Insta...'. Assuming this is the Install button, I press it, but it just becomes blue again. No matter how many times I try, it doesn't install. Anyway to fix it that doesn't involve restoring or deleting any of my previously downloaded apps?

Try a reset. Press & hold the Power and Home buttons simultaneously, ignoring the red power off slider, until the Apple logo appears. Then release both buttons. This should not affect any content on the iPad, it is similar to rebooting your computer.

  • My apps won't update or install. I would push the update/install button, and it wouldn't do anything. How do I fix that?

    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.

    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

    Have you tried to reboot your router? Unplug it, count to 30, plug it back in and let it reboot. Also you may want to go into your settings on your iPad and 'reset network settings'.
    In case the update messed something up, letting the devices reboot sometimes helps.

  • Mail.app won't work properly after installing Yosemite

    My "new viewer window" in Mail.app won't work after installing Yosemite. I can not access the viewer window and thus none of my email.
    How can I fix this?
    Mail.app v 8.0

    some updates on this issue, Mail application uses the same proxy that has been set on your system (system preferences==>Network==>Advanced==>proxies). People usually use HTTP/HTTPS proxy for surfing the web. You should make sure to set SOCKS proxy as well. Mail application works with SOCKS proxy. Note that port number for SOCKS proxy is usually different from the port number for HTTP and HTTPS but the IP address of  your server (apparently) is the same.
    Hope this helps

  • Shut off button and volume button wont work on ipod touch. How do I fix this?

    The on/off button and volume button won't work on my ipod touch!

    You can try the standard fixes to rule out a software problem:
    - 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
    If you still have the problem that points to a hardware problem. Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price.
    Or you can turn on the Assistive Touch Accessibility feature. See chapter 30 of the Users Guide
    iPod touch User Guide (For iOS 5.0 Software)

    Assuming you want Apple to look at iPhone without a charge a good way to
    start is to show you have tried the standard troubleshooting as I
    suggested.
    These are described in the user manual and even under warranty
    the genius bar will expect these to have been tried before they spend time
    looking at an iPhone as normally these steps fix most issues
    However it is up to you

  • Adobe Reader won't install in any of the website-given ways. How can I fix this?

    I've been trying to install Adobe Reader 11.0 on my Windows 8 computer for about an hour now. When I download the regular installer, the first thing my PC does is give a security warning. Strange already, but the website mentioned this could happen, so I said "download anyway". Then when I execute the installler file, I get a small error window titled "Host" which tells me "the certificate could not be verified". The only thing I can do is press "OK", which makes it go away, but the installer still does nothing, of course.
    So I tried the other "direct" download which is given as a possible solution. The AdbeRdr11000 file I get from that downloads without any security issues.
    When I execute it, it asks me if I give this installer permission to run. I say "yes", the window dissapears and then nothing happens. At all. I can wait all I want, it's like I never clicked anything to begin with.
    So how can I fix this. I really feel like downloading such a widespread product shouldn't be so difficult.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    When I follow your link, after filling out the information (operating system, language), I still can only choose for version 11,0.
    This is the same version the "direct" download gives me (the one that doesn't do anything after executing).

  • I just had work doneon my laptop and now it won't read my ipod device.  How do I fix this?

    I just had work done on my laptop and it's pretty much wiped clean.  I plugged in my Ipod classic and while the computer recognizes a device, it doesn't really register as active.  How do I fix this so I can bring up the IPOD classic page in Itunes and download podcasts?
    Thanks.

  • Since Thunderbird attempted to load the newest version, nothing loads. Video won't load, pages take forever. How do I fix this?

    A pop up asked if I wanted to install the latest version of Thunderbird. I clicked yes, and nothing has worked since. Videos won't load, sites take forever to load if they do at all. I clicked on Thunderbird 'about' and it showed it was attempting to load verision 12.1. My last version was 3.1. I deleted the Thunderbird application and installed a 3.1 version I had backed up. Everything is still not working right.
    How do I fix this?

    Thanks Zenos. I have an iMac OS10.6.8 When Thunderbird was installing the latest version is when this problem started. And the problem IS with my browser. I realized the problem started when I said 'yes' to installing the latest version. When I checked preferences I noticed Thunderbird was attempting to load version 12.1 It had been running for days and only 159 kbs had loaded . I didn't know how to stop it, so I just trashed the Thunderbird app, but that didn't help. I'm not very techy to say the least, but it seems like there might still be something running in the background that is slowing up everything else on my computer. Anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks for the reply.

    . How do I fix this? It's just mine. My friends and her moms Iphones appear in both spots so it's not the cord. Help! I've tried uninstalling and redownloading Itunes. That didn't work. I've reset my iphone numerous times. Turned it off and back on. Restarted my computer. Deleted everything off of it and restored it from backup. It works on my friends computer perfectly fine but it won't work on mine. I've tried everythign that the Apple troubleshooter said to do and none of it worked. I need to get it figured out soon because I only have tonight.

  • I bought a new computer and reinstalled my elements 12...when i first loaded it, it asked me to license or done...i accidently clicked done and now it won't run at all...how do i fix this...i keep uninstalling and reinstalling it and the editor side will

    so how do i fix this...i have reinstalled it many times now and even went and downloaded the 13 trial version just to do the project i was trying to work on...

    Once I clicked the Done button the program shut down.  So when I restarted it and clicked on editor, the timer thing happened on the editor side with the cursor timer also spinning for a few seconds and then both timer displays stopped and nothing happened.  I can click on the manage photos side and it opens and functions but not the editor.  There are no error messages.  I can uninstall the program and reinstall it and the exact same thing happens over and over.  Elements 13 loads and works perfect every time.  Maybe i'm missing something such as if I have a 32 or 64 bit system and which one i'm downloading because i had trouble finding the program to redownload.  Maybe if you just get me  alink to the american version of elements 12 32/94 bit version it will work great i bet that is the problem actually.  Because I originally did a trial version last year of 12 and then later bought it.  So if you can give me a link to download a good version of the program that might actually solve it.  Because if i have a 32 bit program download and my system is a 64 bit system...that might actually account for this issue...since after I downloaded it did not have a chance to run it and see if it worked...

  • The header photos on my website are not formatting properly in Mozilla. How do I fix this?

    Hi There,
    The header photos on each page of my website are not formatting properly in Mozilla. The photos appear to the right side of the website and you have to scroll over to see them. They work on other browsers such as Chrome and Safari. How do I fix this? Here is the link to my website: http://cpd.berkeley.edu/.
    Thanks for your help!

    What is even stranger, is if you reload the page in version 33, it is in the right place. Does this happen on Beta? [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/channel/]
