My iPad wont let me install apps even after typing in my password

Yester day i got my ipad mini 2 and signed into my apple account. I go search for an app like youtube and click the "get" button after clicking install they asked my sign in, i click "use existing account" then type in the email and password. then the button just turns back to "get" ! it wont let me get any apps and it doesnt tell me if my password or username is wrong. i type in the worng password to check and it tells me it is wrong. so i type in the correct password and it does nothing. PLease help!

Howdy GUYSNGAL,
It sounds like you are entering your Apple ID email and password but the Get button just reverts to Get with no error message at all. I would start by quitting the iTunes Store, Settings, and App Store apps on the device:
iOS: Force an app to close
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that restart the device:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
Then sign into your Apple ID in Settings > iTunes and App Stores and try downloading some apps again. That should get you going.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling

Why my ipad wont let me install Apps , update apps or my ipad software an when i go to the setting theres no sofware updates ..... Help Please ?

My ipad dose not have the software update in the settings nor is it letting me donwload apps it keeps asking for a payment method i put the info in but it still dosent work helpp please

The option to update without the computer (Over the air) was made available with iOS 5. If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.

Also read the instructions from the section entitled "Update your device using iTunes" at the link below.

My iPad wont let me download apps it just keeps saying waiting.

My iPad wont let me download apps it just keeps saying waiting.

1. 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.
2. If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>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>Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
3. 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.
4. You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.
5. 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

My iPad wont let me download apps bc security questions, but when I try to make them it freezes

Every time I try to download an app it tells me I need to update my security questions, but once I click to make the questions the box goes white. So I'm not sure how to fix it

The new questions show on your account on http://appleid.apple.com ? If they do then try logging out and back into your account on your phone (assuming that is where you are trying to purchase from) and see if the new questions then show on it.

Apple store won't let me buy an app even after putting in my password

Just bought the mini. Bought a free app, then tried to upgrade it by purchasing one through App Store. Put in id and pw but it says i can't purchase and I need to contact apple support. Thoughts?

You are required to provide credit card details to download apps be it free or paid.
Nothing will be deducted from your credit card if the app is free.
There will be a authorizing hold of US$1.00 to verify your account information. It will be credited back to your account later.

I am trying to update some apps but my ipad wont let me because it wants me to enter the security code for my credit card and I dont want to do that so how do i fix this?

Try temporarily disabling your firewall and antivirus.

HT1904 If the iPad wont let me download games because the apple Id and that app was not used in the I tunes

My iPad wont let me download any games

The issue is that your credit or debit card credentials must be associated with the same country where you reside in order to purchase iTunes content.
"Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location. You can use the iTunes Store in all countries of which you’re a resident, but you’ll either need a separate iTunes Store account for each one, or you’ll need to continually be switching the billing information on your single account. Generally, it’s simpler just to set up an alternative account for these situations, although it’s worth nothing that features like iTunes in the CLoud and iTunes Match are designed to work best when using a single iTunes Store account, as you can only switch accounts with these services every 90 days."

I need help please.
My iPad wont let me do any apple updates for apps etc. I can't download music etc. used to be able to but doesn't seem to connect to I tunes. Everything else works

Saw this on another post.
Applecare Senior Advisor Txx Bxxx (I have his contact info in an email he just sent) just confirmed with me that the problem people are having with the App Store not loading is an apple issue with there servers, ITS NOT YOUR IPAD so don't go restoring it! It's not happening to everyone however but they are looking into it, its really hit or miss.
In the meantime ...........

Try this first - Reset 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.
This works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

I deleted iTunes when it said "iTunes could not back up iPhone because the backup could not be saved on the computer"and now it wont let me install it again and keeps saying "itunes cannot be installed because the file cannot be found in the cabinet "

iTunes told me to delete my backup folder when I was having problems syncing my phone to my computer. After that it wouldn't work at all. After trying and trying I deleted iTunes when it said "iTunes could not back up iPhone because the backup could not be saved on the computer"and now it wont let me install it again and keeps saying "itunes cannot be installed because the file cannot be found in the cabinet ". What the **** itunes? Nothing is working!!
I wanted to update my iTunes so I could sync my phone to my computer and update my phones software so I can use the latest apps that need a 4.2 or higher.
This is not fun for me so if anyone knows what I can do to fix this please help. Is it possible to download the "cabinent file" with the lastest iTunes?
Thank you.

My phone is the iPhone4 and my computer is a Windows Vista

I doubt that corrupt files are the problem. It is more likely a space or permissions issue. Is the hard-drive on which iTunes is stored close to capacity? Do you (or the particular user profile you have logged on with) have the requisite permissions to save to that drive?
Otherwise, do you get an error code? This might point us in the right direction.
