TS1368 my ipad2 is unable to update apps.

Hi, my ipad2 is unable to update apps. When i tap on the update icon I get the message, "unable to connect to itunes store". But i can still go to itunes and download new apps or search my apps and update individually.

Try logging out of your account on the iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store and then log back in and see if it then works.
If that doesn't solve it then what has worked for some people is going into Settings > General > Date & Time and change the date to a few months in the future and then re-trying

  • Unable to update apps on iPad mini. I have even restored the iPad and now I can't download any of my previously purchased apps.

    Can someone help me. I am using an iPad mini with iOS 7.0.4 with wifi connection. Have had no problems until recently when I was unable to update apps and then noticed that some apps would open but no data would be available in apps like intelicast and Pinterest. I have restored the iPad and now I am unable to download any of my previously purchased apps.

    1. Make sure iPad is using the latest software
    2. Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>On
    3. Make sure Time Zone is correct
    4. Reset iPad. Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo.

  • Unable to update apps after 10.5 update

    I have been unable to update apps on my iPhone since downloading iTunes 10.5.
    I have an established connection in iTunes to my account and can download apps but when I when I click on "# Updates Available" I am asked to sign in again and then receive a message that the iTunes Store is unavailable and to try again later.
    All system software is up to date and I have update my iOS to 5. I am able to connect to the store via my iPhone and update there but do not understand why I can't view the updates on my Mac.
    Please help

    Please test after each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved. Back up all data before making any changes. Keep in mind that no one here represents Apple or can help with customer-service issues.
    Step 1
    A purchased app can only be updated by signing in to the App Store with the same Apple ID that was originally used to buy it. There's no way around that limitation, which also applies to free apps. If you can't sign in with the buyer's ID, delete the app and reinstall it. You'll have to pay for it again, if applicable.
    Step 2
    If you get the alert when trying to update a bundled iLife app, select the Purchases page in the App Store and locate the app in your purchase history. If there's a button marked ACCEPT on the right, click it.
    If you have a used Mac, the bundled apps were linked to the original owner's Apple ID and can't be transferred to you. Reportedly, customer service has issued redemption codes to some second owners who asked, but it's not guaranteed.
    Step 3
    If you're trying to update iLife or iWork apps that were installed from a purchased DVD, or if you have a refurbished Mac bought directly from Apple, contact App Store customer service for a redemption code. You may be asked for the part number of the DVD.
    Step 4
    From the App Store menu bar, select
              Store ▹ View My Account
    Enter your Apple ID password at the prompt. At the lower right corner of the window that opens, click the Reset button. Close the window.
    Step 5
    According to a report, the error can result from changing the language setting of your Apple ID account. I can't confirm.

  • Unable to update apps in app  store after installing 8.1.3

    I have been unable to update apps in app  store after installing 8.1.3
    Is anyone else having this problem?

    Yes, on iPhone, but ok on iPad. It says I have 12 Updates, but doesn't say what they are. I sync'd with iTunes on the Mac and everything is up to date there. I think if there are no Updates in iTunes, then you are up to date. It may be an issue with Notifications. I'm turning Alerts off in iPhones Notifications settings for now so I don't have to look at the number. Welp, now it says 11 Updates.

    Hi there Sam R 12,
    You may want to try force closing all open apps and resetting the device as an initial troubleshooting step. Take a look at the articles below for more information.

    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset

  • Ipad2 unable to update apps since ios7 update

    Since the ios7 update, my ipad2 cannot complete any app updates. When I try to download updates, it says "the app could not be purchased at this time. Please try again later."
    How do I fix this?

    This may sound funny, but try setting the date on your iPad ahead about a year.  Then set the date back to today's date and then try updating apps.

  • HT201210 Unable to update apps via iTunes

    I recently updated my iPad2 to iOS7. Huge mistake, but what's done is done. Anyway, since the update I am now unable to update any of my apps. Before the update I had no problems, but now it just kicks out the request and goes into a never ending loop of asking for my password without actually updating anything. Am I the only one with this problem?
    In addition to this, I am now unable to use my messages function or FaceTime. Goes into the same never ending loop.

    If anything like my Asha 311 how about going to Settings > scroll down off screen to connectivity > net connection - set to Wi-Fi first?
    Happy to have helped forum in a small way with a Support Ratio = 37.0

  • I am unable to update  apps on my iPhone 5.

    I am unable to update my apps on my iPhone 5. As I select the update button it asks for my password but the goes back to like it was. I have already rebooted a couple of times & even logged out & signed back into my iCloud, iTunes & App store. Nothing worked. But, I am still able to download new apps.
    Please tell me what can I do now to update my apps. All suggestions will be appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Can you explain a little more?  Is there a problem with your app store account?  If so, http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
    If there is another reason, can you describe it?

  • Unable to update apps through App Store on iPad mini: App Store says that 'All Apps are up to date'

    OK, so basically I've been having this problem where I'm unable to update the apps on my iPad through the App Store. The badge icon of the App Store displays a number 8, which should mean that there are 8 apps with updates, however, upon opening the App Store and going to the 'Updates' section, my iPad tells me that 'All apps are up to date', which is both frustrating and confusing.
    I have tried:
    - Closing the App Store and removing it from the App Switcher
    - Rebooting the device
    - Logging out and then back in with my Apple ID
    Also, I read elsewhere to try and individually update the apps by going to the 'Purchased' section, however this did not solve anything as none of the apps shown had an 'update' button next to them.
    If anyone can offer any help, it would be greatly appreciated.

    I should have mentioned before- I have been using my iPad without a computer and I haven't got access to one for a while. I was under the impression that when Apple released iOS 5, it was possible to use their devices completely independent of a computer. Hence, every device running iOS 5 or later should be usable And fully functional without a computer.
    Is there any way to fix this without a computer?

  • Unable to update apps in UK app store

    i I have been trying to update 6 apps, including Amazon, for the last 3 days. The circles just spin, and eventually I get a message on 1 of them saying "unable to purchase (app name) at this time".

    Greetings JGK286,
    Thank you for participating in the Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like some apps on your iPad are not updating. If so, try the following tips.
    First, make sure you have a Wi-Fi connection by using another application like Safari. If you can't connect to the internet, try the troubleshooting steps in this articles:
    If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch won’t connect to a Wi-Fi network - Apple Support
    If your internet connection works normally in other applications, next try signing out and back in to the iTunes & App Store:
    Tap Settings > iTunes & App Store, then tap the Apple ID signed in.
    Choose Sign Out from the menu that appears. Restart your device next. Then, sign back in to the iTunes & App Store and try to update the apps again.
    From:

  • Unable to update apps in iOS 8.0.2 iPhone 5S

    I'm unable to update any apps on my iPhone 5S.
    Problem started after I updated to iOS version 8.0.0. Oddly, apps updated for a while, then stopped about 2 days ago.
    I upgraded to 8.0.2 hoping it would solve the problem. Still a problem.
    I receive notifications in the App Store that apps are ready for an update. I go into the App Store and click to "update" on individual apps or "update all". In both cases, the little blue square in a circle loads (looks like it's about to download the update), but no progress indicator shows that it's / they're downloading.
    Have rebooted. No help.
    Have signed out and back into the App Store. Didn't fix it.
    Turned off Family Sharing. Didn't fix it.
    I've attempted to update the apps using 3 different Wi-Fi networks, all of them with a strong signal. Have also tried while tethered to laptop via iTunes.
    Little help?

    hi, Brett - I'm having a problem now restarting my iPhone.
    iTunes (yep, it's the latest Windows version) keeps crashing ("iTunes has stopped working" message).
    The installed apps are blacked out with text beneath the icon "Waiting".
    And iTunes crashes on step 4 of 4 (Syncing Apps to John Alton iPhone 5S - step 5 of 5). Starts on the first app it tries to reinstall / sync.
    I am manually installing each application because I'm unable to bring back from syn. (On the iPhone, in App Store, go to Purchased > Not on this iPhone,
    But I'm still unable to run iTunes because it crashes while attempting to re-load the applications and data.
    Little help?
    thanks,
    John

    Please help

    Hey there Mestrya,
    It sounds like your one iPhone 4 is having issues downloading or using internet on a Wi-Fi connection even after resetting your phone and modifying your router settings, but other devices work without issue. I would recommend for you the following article to help resolve this, named:
