The search feature of the App Store won't work?

Recently whenever I try to search for an app in the App Store on my iPhone 5, nothing happens. I type in the app I'm searching for and hit search but it just continues to show a blank screen. There isn't any error message or anything saying that it can't connect to the App Store and I know my data and wifi are both working because I've been able to do other things that require them.

Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is app and data safe!

  • The search feature in messages does not seem to work with pre IOS 7 messages

    After updating to IOS 7 the search feature in the Messages app does not seem to work with messages received prior to the update.  Texts received since the IOS 7 update search correctly.  Is this a bug or a feature of moving to iMessages rather than just receiving standard texts?

    Although not related to your question you have outdated ShockWave Flash Player go ahead and update your flash player by going to www.get.adobe.com/flashplayer
    As for your problem, One of your add-ons might be the culprit too. Try running Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] with all add-ons disabled. If that solves the problem, see [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and possibly [[Troubleshooting plugins]]

  • In the search feature of the phone, does not work correctly

    In the search feature of the phone, when typing a first name or last name, why does the search start with the letter A?  For example, I type ME and the first name that pops up is Cecil.  Cecil is in my contact list but not what I am searching for.

    I believe when using the search feature, it searches more fields than just the first and last name. See if Cecil has something in his contact card that contains MA, such as an address, company name, etc. Otherwise, I generally do not find any problems using search.

  • Installing 10.9.2, "shutdown because of a problem", now Mail won't open and App Store won't work.

    While installing OS X 10.9.2, my MacBook Pro suddenly "shut down because of a problem" (which isn't the first time that happened). Checking the Apple menu and "About this Mac" it says I have 10.9.2 installed. I tried to see if I could reinstall the update, figuring something went wrong when the computer shut down, but the App Store won't work, clicking on "Updates" or any other tab doesn't change the screen from the App Store icon in the center. Mail also won't open, which is what I ; I tried to see if I could reinstall the app, but I don't have the CD that the support page said I needed. It seems to be only Mail and FaceTime that won't open so far. How do I fix this?

    I took it in to my university's apple care and they wiped and reinstalled the OS.
    Next time I will just go in and ask, since it doesn't look like anyone else is getting any real help with this problem!

  • Updated to 10.8.5 and now app store won't work?

    I have just updated my Mac 10 version 10.8.5 and now it is saying that the App Store won't work with this version. Itunes also won't open as this obviously hasn't updated properly either.
    Has anyone else had this problem? I don't seem to be able to reinstall the App Store either?

    Try the following....
    Mountain Lion Recovery
    Boot up from your computer by holding down the command+r keys.  This will take you to the recovery drive.
    Select Disk Utility & hit Return. 
    In Disk Utility select the HD on the left & click on Repair Disk (bottom right).
    When done, repair permissions from your desktop DU and restart your computer.  Check SU for further updates. 
    Post back your results.

  • When powering off my iPod touch, any application (facebook, viber etc)installed using App Store won't work again

    When powering off my iPod touch, any application (facebook, viber etc)installed using App Store won't work again
    How to solve this issue?

    Try a hard reset first. Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    If still no luck, try downloading and installing a new app from the App Store.  Doing so has cleared the issue up for several users.

  • HT4623 I recently updated my 64 gig 4S to OS7, my apps don't work any more, the apps store won't work, I've tried deleting apps and reinstalling, no good. The phone is just a phone now

    since updating my apps don't work anymore, the app store won't connect, I tried deleting apps and reinstalling, no go. The phone is just a phone now.

    Try accessing the Store through the Music App first then use the other app.
    You've already tried a Reset, Restore from Backup, Restore as New?

  • How do you get the search feature on the ipod 30gb ?

    for some reason, my ipod 30gb does not have the search feature that i have seen on other ipods
    hp dv6000   Windows XP  

    Interesting, I don't have such a feature, and I don't think that there is one. However I could be mistaken. Was the iPod connected to something, like a dock/stereo? Software for the iPods would probably have that feature if anything. I have the latest version, and yet, no search feature. I have a 60GB video iPod.

  • My ipad 2 app store won't work

    I don't know why, but my app store won't download.
    I Deseret my iPad.... And it's taking for ever just to sign in my apple I. D
    What to do?

    Do you mean that the apps are taking forever to download?
    Have you tried to quitting the app store and restarting the iPad?
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. 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.

  • HT203421 How do I reinstall Mavericks if my app store won't work?

    We've been having troubles with this iMac. Apple Store replaced everything but the hard disk, nuked and repaved it with Mavericks. I reloaded my info from backup manually. Now, Preview, Messages, and App Store don't work. Is there some way to reinstall Mavericks without connnecting to the App Store?

    You almost certainly ran a defective third-party "utility" such as "CleanMyMac" that purports to "clean up" "junk" files. What it really does is to corrupt the operating system.
    The first thing you need to do is remove that software according to the developer's instructions. Never install it, or anything like it, again.
