The app store showed me that I had 3 apps to update, Drudge Report, iBooks

The app store app, showed that I had 3 apps to update, one of them being iBooks.  Anyway I keep getting a message that they cannot be updated at this time however I have been able to update other apps. I can't find any troubleshooting advise.  I have the iPad (1) any ideas out there?

Try signing out of your ID, restart the iPad and then sign in again. Settings >Store >Apple ID - tap the ID and sign out. Restart the iPad. 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. Sign in again. Settings>Store >Sign in. See if that works.

  • App store showing wrong apple id when trying to update but correct id in settings

    App store is showing the wrong apple id when trying to do an update but correct id in settings. How do I fix?

    I had the same problem. After syncing my phone, my husband's ID was popping up for app updates. Apparently they were downloaded through his account to begin with, so deleting them and redownloading fixed my problem.

  • I keep gettin updates from my app store but yet when I go in and update all it starts the update and then pops up and tells me that the application cannot be downloaded at this time. I have had to delete a few apps bc this isn't working.

    I keep getting updates from my app store but yet when I go in and update it starts the process but then a message pops up that says the download cannot be done at this time. I have had to delete a few apps because of this. I have also signed out and signed back into my account and turned my phone on and off and still does the same thing. Help!

    Hi tmcrae
    First check that your device is not full, maybe you may have to delete some photos or apps to make space to do updates. if its not full then you will have to try pluging it into your pc/mac running itunes then doing a backup and restore. Then you should be able to do your updates.
    Sorry but i cant think of any other way if its showing as installed already but is not there.
    Hope that helps

    Hello, how are you? On September 13 I bought an iPad and in October bought a game on the app store problem is that when informed the card number dropped normally, but then went on to ask for a new form of payment because one had given any errors, and so not lowered any other game and not upgraded the already downloaded. I do not know what exactly I have to do, because if informed a new payment method continues with the same problem, checked the card bill and really had given an error, because there was no billed the game. I ask you to verify what happened and explain to me what I need to do, because my single card is Visa's and do not intend to return others to use the services of the App Store.
    Thank you for understanding.

    I think you need the app store support. http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/contact/ Go there and use one of the methods to contact them about your issue and they should be able to help you out.
    This forum isn't checked by Apple employees but is for users to help each other out.

  • HT202879 I downloaded the new version of pages about a month ago.  Today I tried to open documents that I created and saved with the new version and received a message that I needed to download the new version.  The app store shows the download.  HUH?!?

    I downloaded the new version of pages about a month ago.  Today I tried to open documents that I created and saved with the new version and received a message that I needed to download the new version.  The app store shows the download.  HUH?!?

    I'm not sure what you mean by it making accessing files more complicated. I have both Pages 4.3 & Pages 5.1 icons in my Dock as well as Numbers 2.3 & Numbers 3.1. I continue to use the iWork '09 versions for my everyday needs. As long as the new versions are in your Applications folder & the '09 versions in the iWork '09 folder, Software Update will not have a problem updating them even if Apple should come out with a new update for the '09 versions.
    Because I have moved the new versions to an external drive & renamed the apps because I want '09 to be the default apps, I do have to remember to move them back to my applications folder & restore the original names before updating. But since you like the new versions this "complication" doesn't apply to you.

  • I had an iTune card gift and i tried to made reedem for it but the iTune store show that it is not activated so what should I do to activate it ?

    I had an iTune card gift and i tried to made reedem for it but the iTune store show that it is not activated so what should I do to activate it ?

    What you normally should do is go back the retailer from whom you purchased the card and discuss the problem with them. They should either correctly activate the card or give you a new one. If they refuse to help, as some retailers do, or this was a gift so you cannot contact the retailer, go here:
    iTunes Support
    and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store.
    Regards.

  • 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.

  • An app I downloaded is no longer showing up on my screen. The app store shows thar it needs to be updated, but the update bottom is colored light, not dark.

    I downloaded Pandora a while back. My 12 year old nieces were playing with my iPad and now the Pandora icon is not on my screen. The app store shows that it needs to be updated, but I can't do it. What can it do to recover my Pandora program?

    Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, my query is not so much about the sale of the company and the dream. I agree with you on that point. Good for them. My frustration is that this old app has now caused a glitch in my Apple App Store icon. I have a red badge with one update and it is referring to the old app that has been sold that needs to be updated. When I try to update the app it says no longer available for purchase. So I have since deleted that app in hopes that it would resolve the red badge issue. It has not. Somehow, that old app and the new app with the same name but by a different company has caused the glitch. I have reset all settings on my iPad, I have rebooted, I have deleted the app and still the red badge with the one update for the old app is there. Hmmm. . . I guess I need to take this into the Genius bar or wait for ios 7 in hopes that it will fix the glitch. Thanks again for your help.

    As long as the apps and ibooks are still available in the store, and you use the same iTunes account as you originally used to buy them, then you should be able to re-download them for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519

    The upgrade I'm interested is for OS X  v.10.8.5...
    ...The App Store page shows 2 different upgrades:   
    Mountain Lion  (10.8.5)  Software Upgrade,  and
    Yosemite FREE upgrade
    If the App Store is showing 10.8.5 as an update, what do you currently have installed? The final update to Mountain Lion was 10.8.5, and since the basic OS installation of Mountain Lion is no longer offered in the App Store, that would suggest you're currently at an earlier version of Mountain Lion - 10.8.x where x=less than 5. If that's the case, I'd suggest getting the 10.8.5 update. There is also a Supplemental Update for 10.8.5 and that may be what the App Store is offering.

  • I have 10.7.2 and the app store on mac mini says i need to update to that same number, and it is a long update why and what to do? applecare rep was rude and said it does not need it ? ignore? what to do?

    about says i have 10.7.2 yet app store on mac mini says i need to update it,
    what to do? applecare rep rude says ignore

    i appreciate the help since Applecare is not helping,
    and these replies have not helped, things have gotten worse,
    first even though you tell me i dont need the update, i still don't like seeing
    an update is available every time i go to macappstore,
    next three times now I downloaded the update, it is the whole 3.79 gb Mac OS 10.7.2
    i do the long download for the update,
    and install and give whatever they ask in passwords etc,
    then it reboots and go through all the new installation crap
    that I need to do
    it is getting to be like a Microsoft project here,
    and i cannot get google to show me the way or Applecare
    with the one year left on extended support, and these apple communities
    don't get me wrong, i am greatful for any help,
    especially since Apple care refuses to help,
    when they are paid to help
    you guys and gals are volunteers and mean well, even though you want to be right about what you say,
    the point is it says I need an update for the 10.7.2 and won't give me the update
    and take the update off,
    now if you say it is something i do not need and it is a glitch with macappstore,
    then why doesn't it get fixed or someone else complain about it?
    sorry if this offends Apple Zealots which i am one,
    I have a windows netbook but I am having more trouble with the latest mac and Icloud which I paid for extra service
    and two iphones  and i am frustrated, that on the iphone and itunes apps are missing and itunes does not have a direct chat line to help but that is for another forum, just putting it out there.
