Itunes doesn't show any app updates

Hi folks,
iTunes doesn't show any app updates. On my iPhobe and iPad there are updates in the app store... Any hints?
Thanks
Pat

Same problem here
I can see I have updates on iPhone or iPad but nothing on iTunes

Frozen app update

Help, I was performing an app update on my iPad and it is frozen in the installation phase.
How can I remedy this ?

What app is it? Can you restart your device, and see what happens? Or try to sign out then back in again.

I can't switch apps on my iPhone 4. I have 9.3 GB of free space out of 30 GB. Rebooting doesn't fix the problem. Does anyone know of a good fix?

I can't switch apps/programs on my iPhone 4. Whatever app I'm in is the only app I can use unless I restart my iPhone. Then I can choose a new app/program to use but then it's stuck on that app/program until I reboot my iPhone. Syncing it with iTunes doesn't seem to fix the problem and I regularly close apps/programs so I never have many multi-tasking.
This problem sometimes goes away for a brief period of time (an hour or two) but it's pretty much been this way for the past 48 hours.
I have a 32 GB iphone 4 that has the following on it: 4.9 GB Audio, 8.2 GB Photos, 6.2 GB Apps, 0.58 GB Other, 9.3 GB Free.
I am using iOS v 4.3.5
Does anyone know of a good fix?

You mentioned rebooting, have you tried a cold reboot? That is is holding the home and lock buttons down for about 15 seconds?
Ignore the slider asking to turn off, just keep holding. Once it goes off continue to hold for about 10ish more seconds and it will eventually turn back on.
Suggestion only.

Why doesn't CC desktop app update work? Error 50.

I tried to update through the app when it told me there was a new update for Creative Cloud.
The update failed to install (Error 50) after downloading. Two different PCs with completely different hardware/drivers/configurations - same problem on both. I had to completely uninstall the app and reinstall, which negates the whole idea of the update process. What exactly is the point of an update facility if it doesn't work? I hear this is not an uncommon problem.
Photoshop CC and Lightroom are great, but the CC desktop app is garbage. Time to start from scratch with this one, Adobe.

IOS 5 froze 3gs. Reboot doesn't Fix

I just updated my Iphone 3gs to the new OIS 5. After downloading the update and installing successfully, My phone freezes on the home screen. No progress can be made, because as soon as the home screen pops up, it's frozen. I tried reset it to the backup before I installed the new OS but it's still frozen. I don't know where else to go to fix this.

Hi. I am having the same problem on an original iPad. The tabbed browsing works fine, but no "reader" button is showing up in the URL window at the top...
Anyone else seeing this and is a reinstall of ios5 really needed?
Thanks

Anyway to automatically download app updates?

i had to disable automatic app updates on my ios device as i have limited bandwidth and would want a single copy of the universal apps to be downloaded and install on all my devices which can be done only via itunes on the mac. sadly, itunes doesn't do automatic app updates. is there a way, like an applescript or something, that can trigger automatic app updates of available updates and keeps them ready for syncing?

If you are looking for something automated, I don't think so.

I downloaded iOS 6.0 to my iPad and app updates are taking days to install. ?

After upgrading third gen. iPad to iOS 6, many apps are now wanting updates installed. Perhaps I checked too many at one time, but for three days, some have not installed, and there is no option to close the task or restart the updating. How can I fix my app updating dilemma?

Could you have any podcasts or other background downloads that might have gotten paused, holding the rest up? That's a common cause of lengthy downloads/paused downloads.

I've got four apps that are frozen in update - how do I fix this

My iPad is experiencing frozen apps after downloading app updates - how can this be fixed?

Try update using iTune (computer) and sync to iPad.

Apps update has frozen, how do I fix? Have tried all suggested apple solutions.

My iphone 3gs was updating apps and froze part way through. I cannot delete or use the frozen ones. Rest of phone working fine. Have tried the fixes apple suggest to no avail.

Go to the App Store app, click on Updates. Can you see the "frozen" apps? Is the Update button enabled?
If that does not resolve the problem open iTunes on your computer, click on Apps and check for updates. The updates should be downloaded to iTunes. Then connect the phone to iTunes, click on its name, and click the Sync button.

Some of My app updates have frozen....waiting

I've tried re booting. When I touch and hold the app nothing happens. The frozen apps can't even be deleted

You already tried rebooting and you said that didn't work, so just skip that suggestion. These have worked for others in the past. YMMV.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.

TS3274 My App Store shows 3 updates but when I go to it the screen is blank. It will not give me the option to update all or one at a time, it doesn't show the apps at all.

Many people are having this problem for the last couple of days. This is a problem that Apple has to fix. If you look around the forum, you will see many, many discusssions about this and they have been going on for a few days.
According to Fly150 in another discussion, this is a workaround - for the time being.
If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
1. Go to App Store
2. Select Purchased
3. Select All
4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
5. Select update on the Apps
This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store.

Since migrating from Windows 7 to Windows 8 and upgrading to iTunes 11, the latter has frozen while syncing my devices, usually while at the “determining apps to sync” stage of the process. If I am attempting to download app updates before attempting to sync, the problem normally occurs at the first “installing app x” stage. In addition, the whole iTunes experience is extremely sluggish and will even freeze while searching for a track. Everything worked fine on Windows 7. So far, I have repaired the program several times and have checked for compatibility issues, but there is no Windows 8 option in the combo box, obtained after right-clicking the icon and selecting Properties/Compatibility. As a result, I am unable to sync my devices. If I uninstall iTunes before re-installing, will this affect my iTunes libraries? Does anyone have any suggestions?

After going by elimination to isolate if the problem was from (1) iTunes app, (2) my computer or (3) my old iPhone 4G, I figured out what my problem was.
1) First I deleted & reinstalled iTunes on my Windows PC without succes, my playlist did not changed on my iPhone.
2) I tested a successful #sync from the iMac at work.
So my conclusion is: The hard drive on my Windows PC is full and that is affecting iTunes SYNC functionalities.
So I'll do a back-up then run a "Clean Install" of my Windows OS, hoping that it will fix my SYNC problems.

TS1702 apps frozen while updating

while updating apps they have stopped updating and are now "waiting" how can i stop them and try again.

If rebooting doesn't help, (holding down on the sleep and home buttons until the Apple logo appears on the screen) here are a couple of other things to try.
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.

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.
