Skype App says 'Waiting' and does not Install

Tried to install Skype App on iPhone4. After more than 2 hours, the App icon still says "Waiting". I tried going back to the Apps icon but under Skype App, I am unable to deselect/reselect to install. How do I delete installation and try again?

I am having the same problems with multiple apps on my iPhone 4. Sometimes when I go into the App store it flashes up a brief message about not able to connect. However, it is still telling me there are updates for my apps, which I can't download.

  • The notepad app says waiting and will not respond. No other apps are waiting. I have rebooted the iPad to no avail

    My notepad app is greyed out and is labelled waiting. It will not respond. No other apps appear to be waiting. I have tried rebooting to no avail. Any suggestions?

    Try this:
    Log out of the iTunes Store on your device:
    Settings>iTunes & App Store...tap your Apple ID, then select "Sign Out"
    Reset your device:
    Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
    1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
    2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
    3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

  • Ipad App Store said "20" updates.  I attempted to update w/3G.  Now many apps say "Waiting" and are frozen.  When I go online and plug into computer it just updates and doesn't address the individual apps, which still say "Waiting" and are frozen.

    iPad App Store app said "20 updates".  Attempted to update w/3G.  Updated some, but now many apps say "waiting" and are frozen.  I attempted to update then by attaching to computer Itunes Store.  All it did was very quickly go thru the 4 steps and said, "Synched, OK to uplug."  I clicked my ipad and then apps.  It also said Update complete (or something like that).  Now several apps on iPad are frozen and say "Waiting".  Help!!

    Oh a few other things I forgot.
    The long winded back-ups!!!! JESSSSSSH! Although I think the latest update seems to have bit into this a bit.
    Also why is it that sometimes when the iPhone is syncing it will not say on the actual iPhone that it is syncing. I see it's syncing in iTunes but the iPhone doesn't have the typical do not disconnect -syncing message!!! What's odd is I can see the new apps being updated to the iPhone and as long as I don't open any apps it will finish it's sync but the minute I open any apps the iPhone will lock-up!!!

  • Skype 7.2.0.103 Does not install

    I kept getting a message to update Skype but when I tried, it told me I could not remove an old version and crashes. However and this is a method I have posted before. and I have now had to use again. 
    First I download the msi file direct, not sure if Skype alows it, because the download section says off limits, however this link will get you the MSI File
    http://download.skype.com/msi/SkypeSetup_7.2.0.103.msi
    And then you download the MSI extractor, free called lessmsi-v1.2.0 and extract the file to a folder. 
    Then you go to your program files and rename the Skype directory Skype Bak (just in case)
    In the extracted folder you find the phone directory and copy it to your programs Skype directory, and delete everything in it except the cab file and the Skype.exe
    And then your Skype exe will work with the latest version of Skype, no install failures. 
    If you're confident it is all happy, delete, or backup your Skype Bak folder

    Latest download upgrade still does not install,
    tells me older version 7.3 could not be removed, that is because I only had 7.2 and was trying to install 7.3 
    So back to the above instructions and use this link http://download.skype.com/msi/SkypeSetup_7.3.0.101.msi
    And you can install Skype upgrade.

  • Creative cloud app downloading.. continues to say waiting and will not continue downloading

    using a mac pro computer. I am unable to download apps

    If you are getting waiting status after 42%  , follow below steps.
    Do not Quit Creative Cloud application when it is showing the progress status as " Waiting"  . Because if we close , the installer file will disappear from Tmp temporary storage.
    1) Right click on Finder icon and  select "Go-To" Folder option.
    2) You will get a text box, type-in below command and then hit 'Return' key.
    /Tmp
    It will open Tmp folder with list of sub folders inside .
    Search for Illustrator/ In Deisgn .dmg file . and then copy it to Desktop.
    Once you had copied .dmg file to Desktop.
    Launch Activity Monitor and "Force Quit" all the process related to Adobe like Creative Cloud, CoreSync, AAMupdater, AAMupdater notifier, Adobe Crash demon , Setup , Install....etc from Activity monitor.
    Then double click on Illustrator/ InDeisgn .dmg file and try to install .

  • New Apps or updates not downloading. It says "waiting" and will not download on 4s

    I have a new 4S. I tried to update my apps and they're just stuck on "waiting". Will not load. Help.

    No messages pop up.
    I am able to access the app store, browse and send/receive mail. so my internet connection is fine. Also my ipad works just fine over the same network.
    The app is a very small file. (A flashlight app for iphone)
    Hope that helps.

  • HT1689 My apps say "waiting" and haven't progress in hours. Why is this happening?

    like the title says, I downloaded four apps and as soon as I return to the home screen, it says "waiting". This has been happening for 12 hours already. Please help me out. Thanks.

    Your iPad can only download one app at a time.  So click on the four apps, and get them to say "Paused".
    Then, one by one, click on an app, and watch it go from "waiting" to "downloading" to "installing".  Then once installing ends, repeat the process on the next app.

  • Two of my apps have frozen and are not installing

    Two of my apps have frozen and keep saying installing but nothing is happening

    I am still continuing to have this problem.  Try the below actions see if they work for you, unfortunately they never worked for me.
    Have you tried updating the apps in your iTunes library, then syncing your phone?
    Are you connected to WiFi? If so, one simple thing to try is to turn WiFi off, wait about 30 seconds or so, then turn WiFi back on.
    A couple of other things you can try are turning Airplane mode on, waiting 30 seconds or so, then turning Airplane mode off. Also: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings...this will delete all saved WiFi passwords.

  • IMovie says waiting and will not load

    I have just bought imovie from the App Store - but it doesn't seem to be loading, it just says 'waiting', it won't allow me to press the 'install' button, as it is greyed out.
    I have rebooted a couple of times, but still the same problem.
    I'm running OS X Yosemite V 10.10.1 on my iMac 4GB Memory.
    I'm at a loss, so have turned to the very helpful Apple Nation for some help.

  • Premiere Elements 11 gives error "encountered a problem installing shared technologies" and does not install.

    I have Photoshop Elements 11 installed but Premiere Elements will not install due to the problem installing shared technologies. I would appreciate any suggestions as to how to fix the issue. I tried the installation several times.

    205EdMLewis
    On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 11 running on? For now I will assume Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit. Are you installing the program from
    an installation disc or from installation files?
    The Shared Technologies error is an old story that afflicts several versions of Premiere Elements on several different computer operating systems. My encounters with this error
    have been using installation disc for the program involved.
    There are numerous home remedies. The one that has been working for me lately and consistently has been the disabling of the OOBE Folder which is found
    Local Disk C
    Program Files (x86)
    Common Files
    Adobe
    and in the Adobe Folder is the OOBE which you disable by changing the folder name from OOBE to OLDOOBE.
    Please let us know if that worked for you.
    Do not give up.

  • I purchased mountain lion but it keeps saying waiting and will not download

    I purchased mountain lion over a week ago and the file will not download. It stays in a waiting queue and never initiates to even say downloading. I have deleted app attempted reinstall on multiple occassions but no luck. Additionally I have deleted app store cache to try and alleviate any issues but nothing is working. Also I am currently deployed to Afghanistan so a trip to the apple store is out of the question. Also I know my location is not an issue cause it allows me to purchase and install other items just fine. Any insight?

    You could pull the app store plist.
    That's what I would try first. (~/library/prefrences/com.apple.appstore.plist)
    Also, I think the ML is kept in another folder as well. Let me take a look.
    Yeah, try pulling the folder inside of the application support folder inside fo the computer libarary.
    Go>computer>mac hd>libarary>application support>app store
    pull the files inside the "app store" folder to the desktop. If there are more then a few, I would make a new folder on the desktop to drag them into.
    restart and try the download again. Delete the download of  ML from the applications folder if there is one there.
    Make sure you don't delete the files. We might need them still.
    Thank you so much for your service! I personaly appreciate it very much.

  • Creative Cloud apps loads forever and does not show a list

    Hello.
    I am trying to install Photoshop using Creative Cloud, but for some reason when I click the apps tab, it shows a spinning loading icon indicating that it is doing some work, but it never finishes and I am not able to get a list of my programs like I can see on pictures on the Adobe website.
    Do you know how I can get it to display my apps? Is there a way to get logs on what is going on? Can I re-download Creative Cloud or is there some other way to fix this? I am not able to use my purchased Photoshop because of this problem.
    Best wishes

  • Been using CC2014 since introduced. The day of AdobeMax and "big announcements" CC app stopped working and will not install.

    I am on a Mac Pro, OS X 10.9.5, 16 GB RAM
    I have been a fanatical Adobe devotee since 1989, but now I am beginning to see the value in other software packages.
    All Adobe design programs (AI, PSD, ID) work, except CC app and Adobe Application Manager.
    On the morning Adobe Max occurred, the CC drop down window in the main menu bar was suddenly empty. At first, I could see the black and grey bars at the top, but the only options were Quit and Help. Applications were no longer visible, or Behance. Now I do not even see the icon.
    Interesting note — All the while, I am receiving a pop-up window saying my CS6 Application Manager is corrupt (!?!).
    I have installed CC and AAM dozens of times. I see no evidence that there is a CC app installed. When I double click AdobeApplicationManager.app, I am required to type in my password, but nothing else happens.
    I gave control of my system to an Adobe techie (while he trashed some files and installed CC again), but he told me to log out and back in, but I lost connection with him (after 4 HOURS). Anyway it made no difference.
    In System Preferences ---> Users and Groups ---> Login Items (where you can click a box for a program to NOT start at login), Adobe Creative Cloud is in the list with a YELLOW WARNING SIGN meaning it cannot find that program.
    BTW, when I try to update programs from within the programs, absolutely nothing happens.
    Any ideas???

    Wow, Karan Taneja, you've just embarrassed yourself on a worldwide support forum.  Not only is your post ridiculous and completely inappropriate for a technical support forum, but it also shows your ignorance as to whom you think the audience is.  Apple is not here.  It's users, like you. 
    If you would have spent half the time actually reading the Terms of Use of this forum that YOU agreed to by signing up to post, as you did composing that usesless, inappropriate post, you (and the rest of us on this forum) would have been much better off.
