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:
iOS: Sign in with a different Apple ID in the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store - Apple Support
Sincerely,
Jeremy

  • How do I retain my apps after I change my apple ID? Right now I'm unable to update any of the apps with the old apple ID. I get an error message about an invalid id or password. If I delete my apps and start over, I may lose the apps that I purchased...

    Apps are always tied to the ID that was used to purchase them originally. Did you try entering your old password and see if that works?
    If you need to sign out of your old account go to Settings>Store>Tap on your ID and sign out. Sign in with the new one.
    you can also access your ID in the featured tab of the App Store. Swipe to the bottom of the screen and you will find it there as well.

  • I cannot change the Apple ID on my iPhone for the App Store so I am unable to update any of my apps. It is an old Apple id I had a good few years ago I have no idea why it is still coming up. I have researched this and solutions coming up are not wor

    Working. I have tried going on settings and to the apps store section and That has my new Apple id. I cannot sign into the old account as I no longer have access to the email address and for some reason the security questions I don't seem to be getting right so I cannot deauthorise it on iTunes. It's annoying as I cannot update or add any apps at all, when I try the old ID comes up with no option to change it. Any help will be great but I'm not that good with these phones so it will need to be an idiots guide!  Ty

    You need to ask Apple for assistance with getting back into your old ID. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to resolve this issue through the Account Security team, fill out and submit this form.

  • I am unable to update Pages through the App store. It appears someone else used my machine to update Pages previously.For the update,  I am asked to login to another account. I want to remove it and download the latest version. Can I do this?

    I was notified that Pages and one other application have updates. When I tried to login, the Apps page asks me to login to an account I am not familiar with. I imagine that this machine was used by someone else to update or download 2 apps. I would like to delete them and download the latest apps using my account. Can I do this?

    You can log in to your own account at any time and access the appliactions you have paid for, just fill in your own Apple ID.

  • Unable to update iphoto or imovie Apps

    I'm unable to update my iphoto and imovie Apps, after I uptaded
    to Mavericks OS. I didn't change my Apple ID account
    and I'm getting the following error:
    "This update is for an app downloaded with a different Apple ID. Sign in with that Apple ID and try again."
    any suggestions ?

    Log out and log back in with the Apple ID you used to either set up your machine or buy the apps.

  • Unable to update anything via Mac App Store

    I have recieved notifications that updates are available (such as iTunes 11 and and iWork and even system software), however, when I go to the App Store updates tab, I receive a drop down notification that says "An error has occurred. A server with the specified hostname could not be found."
    Has anyone had this issue? Or hopefully knows of a fix?

    Thanks. Holding on. This started about 4 days ago and I've been trying it everday since.
    (tried the usual restarts, checking hosts file, etc.)

  • Unable to update or download free apps

    My payment method was declined and it is forcing me to use a new one (which I don't have, by the way) which is not the concern, but I cannot update my apps, nor can I download free apps without updating my billing info.
    ? Why is this happening?  My card info works with everything else, and it has cash on it, so what gives?

    Some folks have gotten these types of cards past the system in the past, but with the need to beef up security for Apple accounts, the system recognizes and kicks these cards quite regularly now.
    If you don't have a None option in the payment methods for your account you need a usable payment method. It could be an iTunes Gift Card.
    You need a replacement payment method to remove the current method.

  • My User is unable to update NoteboxPro via the Windows Store - ERROR c101a7d1

    One of my users is getting an ERROR on his device when he tries to update to the latest version of my application NoteboxPro. The error code is
    c101a7d1
    I have the same device and network operator that I use for testing my apps before I submit them and have not had any issues.  What does this error means and how does my user update to the latest NoteboxPro?
    He has tried to do a total un-install of the app and re-install but still gets the error code
    c101a7d1.
    Please help.

    Hi Jason,
    Actually its a Windows Phone app. Its probably my 2nd or 3rd update since I moved the code from WP7.8 over to WP8/8.1 - which also had issues that never got resolved properly by MS Support.
    This latest update had minimal code tweaks, no big features or sweeping changes at all.  I will definitely help vote up your post.
    Another (separate) annoyance that I noticed was the switch from SkyDrive to OneDrive. That caused a lot of users to not be able to get access to their accounts from my app, which meant they could not restore files.  This issue also exists when users
    change devices (i.e. upgrade or get a new device).  My users have to revert to creating a new OneDrive account and manually copying over the backup/restore files.... it just makes us look back as developers even though we have followed the API as suggested.
    Cheers
    Paul

  • Unable to update my apps after installing iOS 6.1

    unable to update some of my apps after installing iOS 6.1 on my ipad 3

    After Updating iTunes to the latest SW, I connected my iPod Touch 3G to the computer then checked iTunes for any app updates, found those that could not be updated to the iPod alone - downloaded them - when complete iTunes synced to my iPod. Worked fine for me.
    I have not installed iOS 5.0.1 - to many problems!!

  • 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

  • My iPhone3GS running iOS5 has recently been reluctant to upgrade Apps. The App store asks for my password and then marks all the Apps as being updated. Often only one or none actually update. Usually I get a message saying "Unable to download application"

    My iPhone3GS running iOS5 has recently been reluctant to upgrade Apps. The App store asks for my password and then marks all the Apps as being updated. Often only one or none actually update. Usually I get a message saying "Unable to download application" and "<app> could not be downloaded at this time - Done or Retry".
    It's not an iTunes login / password issue because sometimes one or two of the Apps will download and the others stall with the blank progress bar. The internet connection is working fine in all other respects.
    Sometimes, many restarts later the downloads will complete. Is this a known bug? Is Apple working on it? Any fixes?

    What do you mean by 'refusing from the system', if you are getting an error message then what does it say ?
    For a credit card to have a chance of being accepted it needs to be registered to the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, and have been issued by a bank in the country where you and your iTunes account are. If it is and if you are getting a 'declined' message then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes Support (these are user-to-user forums) and see if they know why it's being declined : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
    If when trying to download you are getting a message about a 'problem with a previous purchase' then that implies that iTunes wasn't able to collect the money for your last purchase. If that is the case then you won't be able to download anything else (including app updates) until you've paid off what you owe : Pay an unpaid balance in the iTunes Store - Apple Support
    If you aren't getting the 'problem with a previous purchase' message then try logging into your account (not when trying to download something) and see if you get the 'none' option so that you can remove the card's details and be able to download updates to your apps : Change or remove your payment information from your iTunes Store account (Apple ID) - Apple Support

    This device does not have a sim card in it. Could this be the reason or am I missing something when I am trying to update.
    Yes. You can't update or restore any GSM iPhone without a valid sim card installed in the phone. The sim card need not be activated, but it must be valid & present. If you want to update, you need to get a sim card.
