My iPad shows I have apps to update but when I go to the App Store and the update tab there is nothing there

My iPad II show I have apps to update but when I go to the App Store and the update tab it is blank and doesn't allow me to update anything

You can either wait it out or a work around has been found. In the app store click on the purchased tab. Your apps should come up and you can manually download each app (the apps that have updates will have banners on them)

HT4623 My iPad does not have a "software update" tab

My iPad does not have a software update tab in general. How do I update?

The Settings > General > Software Update option only appears when you have iOS 5+ installed, with iOS 4 you will need to do the update via your computer's iTunes.
Connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases. You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button
Updating to iOS 5+ : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
Your iPad should be updated to iOS 6.0.1 (which is the only version that is 'signed' by Apple), so you will lose the built-in YouTube app and the Maps app will change - but google have app versions in the store

I updated iOS 7 and my contacts were ok then they suddenly disappeared a few weeks after updating. I have no idea if it has anything to do with iOS 7 but when I email someone the contacts are there. When I open the app they are gone. What happened?

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

HT201272 I have recently picked up an Apple TV. When I go to the movies tab, there are less movies available there than there are in my i-Tunes account. I've done some looking around at questions from others, but haven't found an answer that works for me.

I have recently picked up an Apple TV. When I go to the movies tab, there less movies available there than what is available in my i-Tunes library. I have 38 movies showing in my library but only 23 are showing in the Movies tab on the Apple TV. After researching this a little, there are only 23 movies showing under Purchased in the Quicklinks of my i-Tunes account. The majority of my collection are digital copy downloads that came from DVD purchases. Some of the missing movies were added in the past couple of months, the rest are a year-or-so old. I have done some looking around at questions from others, but I have not found an answer that will fix my situation. How do I update my library to get ALL of my movies to reflect that they were "Purchased"(as it says they were in their Properties)?

The pros and cons of to CC or not to CC have been done to death
Its a fact the CC model will work for some, especially newbies and small businesses.
The risks associated with the CC model have been well documented.
For long term users of CS perpetuals its generally a large hike up in cost compared to the upgrade system.
Then there are the....... Adobe can rot it hell...... group who will never subscribe
To each their own, you do the math to suit your cashflow whatever that is and then make an informed decision
To those on the CC model, I'd like to offer some practical advice.........do not allow automatic updates.........make regular backups............develop an exit strategy of alternatives for when you can no longer afford the subscription costs............never ever assume that the Adobe update is bug free
Enjoy your cloud

Thank you for that post, and the advice. I just happen to be one of those who it does work for. I've been around long enough to know that CC isn't going to work for everyone(the large publishing/radio/web company I work for isn't upgrading to CC because of the costs involved). But it does for me as I potentially venture out into the full-time freelancing world and away from the more structured big office environment. I can't make decisions based on what is best for anyone else, or what will hurt or help Adobe. Just what affects me, and that's all.

My OS X does not have app store and has no updates available

my OS X does not have app store icon or anywhere in the apps, and has no updates available

App Store is only available with 10.6.6 or greater.
In order to get to this release you must buy a Snow Leopard DVD.

Can't load Lion because I don't have app store (and yes, I do have snow leopard fully updated)

I was running Lion and everything was fine. Then, the hard drive on my iMac died and I just had a new one installed. After that, I loaded snow leopard and then did a restore of all my files from time machine (I later found out that i should have just done a full restore from time machine and i didnt need to first install an operating system). All of the apps that were updated through Lion dont work, including App Store, Safari, etc. -- they say: "You have Mac OS X 10.6.8. The application requires Mac OS X 10.7 or later." The problem is that the only way to upgrade to Lion is through the App Store, but everything i tried, including Software Update (which says I'm fully updated) doesnt work. I even deleted the Lion version of the App Store so i could try reinstalling the snow leopard version and that didnt work. I also thought about eerasing the whole machine and doing a full restore but now for some reason all of my old backups are gone.

I understand the problem elifromnewyork is explaining. Unfortunately, I have a similar problem. Hard drive crashed>repaired it>restored with time machine backup>several apps are "circle slash" using my newly upgraded OSX 10.6.8. These apps include v1.2.2 App Store, v9.0.9 iMovie, v2.0 FaceTime, v7.1 Contacts, v6.0 Calendar, v1.0 Game Center, v1.0 Launchpad and a few others. iTunes v11.1.3 does not have the "circle slash", but it will not launch. I've tried:
1. Erasing the drive and loading from the Snow Leopard disk and doing a software update.
2. Erasing the drive and loading Snow Leopard, then doing a time machine restore, then a software update.
I have a full version of Drive Genius and have hammered the drive with every Drive Genius repair tool. Each repair says nothing is wrong or the action was concluded successfully. All I can come up with is that the time machine back up is somehow incomplete, or I have a setting turned off somewhere that is affecting a proper restore/upgrade.

OK, I have just changed nameservers but when I go to the new site I am redirected to the old. This only happens with FireFox and Chrome on my computer.

Everyone else can see the new site.. but when I punch the website address into Firefox... I am redirected to the odd site.
Now I have flushed the DNS (ipconfig /flushDNS) and I have cleared the cache, cookies and everything I can possibly clean I have...but it still redirects.
So there is something I am not doing above all that, that I need to do... any ideas what it is.
I have also gone into FireFox config and changed the network.dnsCacheExpiration as the preference name to 0
Thanks guys for the help.. as I am pulling my hair out trying to figure this out.

Do you want to try bypassing your ISP by changing DNS servers? You could try OpenDNS or Google Public DNS. One way to change this is at the Windows level (in the TCP/IP properties dialog), and another is in your router. Something more temporary would be to change your IE connection settings (I think it's under LAN Settings). However, the details are beyond what I can look up at the moment.

HT4623 What if my iPad does not have a software update tab?

What do I do?

See
iOS 5: Updating your device to iOS 5
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect to your computer & click on the "Update your device using iTunes".
Tip - You may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. After you update to iOS 5.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

I am trying to restore info from a 3g to a 3gs when I plug in the 3gs it shows that i have it backed up but when i plug in the 3g it doesnt show my name on there at all

I need help restoring from my computer

My 3gs randomly shuts off so I went to apple they said it was battery. I replaced battery and it would not boot back up. So put old battery back. So now I am trying to use my old phone 3g. When I plug in 3gs and back up it shows that I did. So I eject and plug in 3g phone , when I click restore from backup it doesnt show my other phone 3gs and my name at all.??? can you help

I have deleted every text message on my iPhone, but when I go to the usage tab in settings, it is showing that my texts are taking up 1.8 Gb of space. What gives?

That pretty much sums it up. I wanted to create some more room on my iPhone, so I went through and deleted every single message. How can they still be taking up nearly 2 Gb of space?

- Have you tried another cable?
- Another USB port?
- When you have the problem, connect it to another computer to help determine if you have an iPod or computer problem.
- Try just restoring the iPod to factory settings/new iPod. Do not restore from backup. If you still have the problem with this and all computer that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I have a CC account, but when I upgraded, premiere says it CS6 and hasn't updated.

What gives?

They are two seperate programs check your start menu or start screen for the new shortcut.

I have downloaded some ibooks but when I click on the icon nothing happens - it won't open

I have downloaded some ibooks from iTunes but icons will not open when I click on them. This issue applies to my Windows 7 computers and iPad (3rd Gen) and iPhone 4s.
I can't find any help/support with this issue.

iBooks only open in the iBooks app on an iOS device. It is possible that your download was corrupt, in which delete and download again from your purchased history.
