Since Lion, I cannot download apps from the mac appstore... Is this a common problem?

I am trying to download a 69p app, and I payed my money, but it just says 'waiting' and will not install even when I press install on the purchased bit. What happened, has this happened to anyone else?
Thanks

TS3274 Cannot download apps from the apps store. iOS 7.0.4.

I recently upgraded to version iOS 7.0.4. For my ipad 4. Now I cannot download apps from the apps store. Any suggestions?

The ipad is brand new. It downloaded the apps fine until I updated to the ios 7.0.4. two days ago. When I choose an app from the app store, I can select it and it appears to begin to download (it spins in circles). It does not prompt me for my Apple password. However, it generates a blank, undownloaded app on the ipad. It says waiting underneath the app. I hope that explains it better.
I also reset the ipad and it prompted me to either cancel or purchase several items. I have small children and it appears they were trying to buy upgrades and boosts for games alreadly on the ipad. I have tried to download another game and this time it has prompt me for my password. The app has come onto the screen and it is stuck in the waiting phase of the download.

TS1741 I cannot download apps from the app store. They just sit waiting

I just recently cannot download apps from the app store. The app just sits waiting and will not do anything. I have an iPad 2.

Check iTunes and see if you have a pending or stalled download in there. If you do, finish that download or delete it if you can. If you can't finish or delete the download on the iPad, do it in iTunes on your computer and then sync the iPad. Then go back to the apps and see if they will download.
If that doesn't work or if that was not the problem, go to Settings>Store >Apple ID, tap your ID and sign out. Then reboot the iPad, 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.
Then go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and sign in again and see if the apps will update.

Cannot download Apps from the App store on my ipod

Everytime i try to install an app on my ipod it always says "Authorization failed. Please connect to iTunes." can someone please tell me what to do

Sign in to your iTunes Store account on your computer, then sync your iPod.
When you sync your iPhone or iPod touch, the iTunes application on the computer will share its current iTunes Store account ID with the device you are syncing. This account ID will be used to make purchases from the iTunes Store and App Store on the mobile device.
The account ID that was synced to the device is displayed at the bottom of each page of the iTunes Store, so you'll always know what account you are using on the device. Simply open iTunes on your mobile device and scroll to the bottom of any page to see which account is currently in use.

HT5957 After downloading iOS 7 on my mini iPad I cannot download apps fron the Apps store.likewise I cannot update the apps that needs to be updated. Please advise.

After downloading iOS 7 on my iPad mini I cannot download apps from the Apps store. Likewise I cannot update the existing apps which needed updating. In addition apps would just close or hang up.please help. How can I correct these?

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
I'm curious...
What happens when you attempt to download from the App store?

Donnot erase your iPad air 2 when cannot download app from App store

Hey, I got a 64gb new iPad air 2 last week. while I was downloading apps from App Store, it suddenly could not tell apps. The downloading one became white. And then did't work. After that I had very slow speed connecting App Store, and could hardly download anything. And wifi also became very very slow. My iphone 6 and iPad 2 didn't have this happen, so I figured out it was something wrong with my new iPad Air 2. I've searched many blogs and tried everything, including resetting network, switching on and off wifi, powering on and off the new iPad air 2, nothing getting better. Finally, I had no choice but erasing EVERYTHING on it, after trying all possible solutions over a night, it still didn't work! there must be something wrong with the wifi chip in it. It's really frustrating!
SO, I'd like to say to you if you have the same problem like this, do NOT erase everything, or you'll lose everything without solving the problem! I'd also say a few words to Apple company: I bought my ipad 2 the day it was issued by your company, it works so well in the past years, never crushed down or frustrated me like this. But I got the iPad air 2 for only a week, I have been struggling on solving app downloading and wifi issues for hours! What's the problem with you company? this would never happen with Steve! Earning money doesn't mean you can lower your quality!
I'll go to Apple Store in Chicago to do the exchange or return, because I thouht it was really enough. I'll come back here to tell u the result.

Hi ...
How to re download apps from the Mac App Store:
Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
Select which apps you want to re download. Then right or control click where you see Installed then click Install.
Make sure and use the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.
If you have anti virus software installed, disable that to allow downloads.

Can I install an app from the mac app store on just my login?

I'd like to download apps from the mac app store to just my login and NOT have them installed on other users logins. how can I do this?

In your Mac, you have two Applications folder: /Applications, and ~/Applications.
The first one is the used by default and it stores the applications that are going to be used by all users. The second one is stored in your user folder (~ refers to the user folder), and you have to put the apps you only want to use yourself in this app.
First, open Finder, select Applications folder in the sidebar and copy all the apps you want, selecting them with Command key and then, pressing Command and C keys. After that, select Go menu > Go to Folder, type ~/Applications, and press Command and V keys there to paste your applications.
Finally, go back to /Applications and delete the copied apps, so only you will be able to access to those applications

Ever since I have updated my software to iOS 7, I cannot download anything from the AppStore app and I have tried resetting my password and updating ITunes, but nothing works! Please help!

Ever since I have updated my software to iOS 7, I cannot download anything from the AppStore app and I have tried resetting my password and updating ITunes, but nothing works! Also when I try to sink my mini with my iTunes account it says you cannot sync because the sync session failed to start.

It sounds like to me you're trying to sync using the computer.
Try these things and see if it helps before you try your next syncing session. If none of the things below work then you might consider trying to sync using iCloud only.
Try a Restart.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Resetting your settings
You can also 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. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

I cannot turn on automatically download in my settings. I cannot download anything from the app store...once I sign in it says downloading but them goes back like I never signed in

I cannot turn on automatically download in my settings. I cannot download anything from the app store...once I sign in it says downloading but them goes back like I never signed in what do I do ?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities,
I had a similar issue and it was an easy fix for me. First you need to log out of your account completely in the Mac App Store. Quit the application. Re-open the Mac App Store. Click log-in, enter your Apple-ID and password. Now when the screen pops-up that has all of your billing/credit card information on it DO NOT select done. Instead select View my Account, then select View hidden purchases. There you should be able to find iPhoto. Hope this helps if not let me know. I'm still searching solutions for you.

I cannot download app from app store the icon in blocked in pause

i cannot download app from app store the icon in blocked in pause

Did you check all of your pages?
Usually the new apps will be placed on the last page.
To check if the app was downloaded successfully in the app store instead of install or download you will see open... can you verify that it says open?
