Should iTunes look for App updates

Should iTunes automatically look for updates to my various iphone Apps, and display the number of updates that are available. At the moment I have to check manually. Itunes is always switched on and my Wifi connection is very good.
Regards Craig

Open Preferences and select the 'Store' tab. Is the 'Automatically check for available downloads' ticked?

    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.

    Un able to update app.due to cannot connect to iTunes store.

    Usually it's because you are not connecting to the internet via wifi.

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • Itunes asking for the wrong Itunes account for app updates

    I have a buddy who is attempting to update his iPad apps, but it's asking for his daughter's itunes account password instead of his.  His account is synced to the ipad, and daughter can't remember her password.  What can be done to resolve this issue?

    Ther reason that iTunes requires her password, is because the apps were purchased with her iTunes account/Apple ID. That's how it works. All purchases are tied to the Apple ID that was used to make the purchases and your friend will always need to use her ID and password to update those apps.
    There is no way around this other than for your buddy to delete the apps and purchase them with his own Apple ID,

  • Cellular Data for iTunes Match but not for app updates

    In iOS7 we can now have App updates downloaded automatically. Great. But if I want to use cellular data to stream songs from my iTunes Match library in iCloud when I'm on the road, but don't want to waste cellular data on App updates how can I do this?  It appears that enabling cellular data for iTunes Match also requires using cellular data for any of the four auto download features as well in Settings>iTunes & App Store. Am I seeing this correctly and is there a way to fix this?  I don't want to use cellular data for app updates, just for iTunes Match streaming.  Any help would be great.

    This looks like the same problem I've come across. From what I have been told, they are not separate, ie if you enable use cellular data to stream songs from iTunes Match you also have to download updated apps if you have it set to automatically download them.
    I think this should definitely be separated.
    The other thing you could do it go to another streaming music provider and then turn cellular downloads off. That's what I'm looking at doing.

  • Why am I getting a message that I need to log into the Canadian store for app updates and iTunes

    Why am I getting a message that I need to log into the Canadian store for app updates and I tune purchases?

    Should you be in the Canadian App Store? Is that your store? Of not - or of you need to see what store you are in.
    Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Apple ID
    Tap your ID
    Tap View Apple ID
    Enter your password
    Go to country/region in the popup window to change the store

  • HT1311 Changed my apple ID for iTunes, but did not work for app updates.

    I followed the directions on my phone and successfully changed my apple ID for iTunes. But when I to update apps, the old ID still shows. How can I change my Apple ID so I can update my existing apps?

    Correct! The apps I had previously were downloaded using my husband's apple ID. We are now separated, and I would like to download updates under my OWN apple ID. I followed the instructions for changing my AppleID on my phone, and it works with iTunes downloads. Yet the old AppleID continues to show up for App updates/downloads. Can I change the apple ID for App updates? Or must I delete all the apps on my phone that were downloaded under HIS apple ID and then redownload them under my own ID?

  • Why is there no option to check for app updates in the latest version of ITunes?

    I downloaded the latest version of ITunes but Apple took away the button to check for app updates. Why?

    Thanks. I just figured it out. Siri was not enabled. As soon as Siri was back on, the mike reappeared. But thanks for your help.

  • I have been using Itunes Apps for some time. Today I signed to Itunes to get Apps updated. Apple said I must update my account. I did that with a new password. Itunes said invalid support. Now what can I do?

    I have been using Itunes Apps for some time. Today I signed to Itunes to get Apps updated. Apple said I must update my account. I did that with a new password. Itunes said invalid support. Now what can I do?

    What do you mean "invalid support"? What EXACTLY did it say? Did it say you had an unsupported SIM after updating the firmware on your phone?

  • Changing ITunes Account for Apps

    How do I change my Itunes account for apps? When I go to update my apps, it still has my old account (my password does not work) and I have since created a new account (divorce issues). I have made a new password request for my old account and I do not get an email from Apple to do so. Everything else on my iphone is under my new account (Itunes, store, etc).
    VERY FRUSTRATING!

    How do I change my Itunes account for apps?
    You can't. Apps are DRM protected & tied to the account used to originally purchase them. Contact iTunes support & request they add the apps in question to your download queue for your new account. Explain the situation & most likely, they will do so:

  • Looking for app to create Desktop groups/fences for OSX

    Looking for app to create Desktop groups/fences for OSX..
    I do music and like to keep my most important folders on my Desktop since I access them very frequently.. I saw that there's a few options out there like "Desktop Groups Lite" (link below):
    https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/id561422617?mt=12
    The only problem is that I'm reading a lot of reviews on it from users who are saying that their files/folders are going completely missing, etc.. And that's a big issue that I'm not ready to deal with, considering the importance of these folders to my work/career..
    ^This is a picture of what that "Desktop Groups Lite" app looks like.. and is pretty much EXACTLY what I'm looking for.. but I'm a little bit afraid of it "eating" my contents and losing them forever..
    Does anybody have any recommendations or feedback for an app that can accomplish something like this?
    Thanks!

  • I connected my iphone 3g to itunes which was in 4.1 firmware and itunes ask for an update which i downloaded an updated the phone to version 6.1.3 but my phone cannot start it shows no service my sim card is not getting network and i cannot use the phone.

    i connected my iphone 3g to itunes which was in 4.1 firmware and itunes ask for an update which i downloaded an updated the phone to version 6.1.3 but my phone cannot start it shows no service my sim card is not getting network and i cannot use the phone. what should i do.?

    First, you do not have a 3G if you could upgrade it to 6.1.3, because 4.2.1 is the last version that will work on the 3G. So you either have a 3GS or you somehow hacked the phone to install an incompatible version. You can check the model you have by entering your serial number here: https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do
    Assuming you have a 3GS the most likely reason for your problem is you have a gray market phone that was hacked or jailbroken to unlock it. When you upgraded it you removed the hack, so the phone is now locked to its original carrier.

  • ITunes shows 46 app updates.  When I try to update it says all apps are up to date.  How can I correct this?

    iTunes shows 46 app updates.  When I try to update it says all apps are up to date.  How can I correct this?

    Any chance the apps were purchased through another iTunes Store account? That's usually the cause of the symptoms you describe. Get Info on your apps and see if perhaps some were indeed purchased using a different account. If so, just sign into the iTunes Store using that account and you should then be able to update.
