Unable to update iPad Apps
Here's an interesting one. I am trying to update my apps, but when I go in the App Store and click the "Updates" tab, I just get a blank white page. The remainder of the App Store is operational, as is my iPad generally. Any ideas?
Tis problem is on Apple's end and they need to fix it. Many people are having this problem for the last couple of days. According to Fly150 in another discussion, this will work.
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. This is a workaround only.

Hey there Tonyaokb,
It sounds like you are trying to update some of your apps and when you tap the update button, the update does not happen. I recommend starting by closing the running apps on the phone:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that, sign out of your iTunes account in Settings > iTunes and App Stores, and restart the phone and try to update them again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the issue persists I would next verify that you can find it in your purchased history with ths article:
Tap App Store.
Make sure you're signed in with the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.
Tap Updates.
Tap Purchased on the resulting screen.
So that you can then delete the app and re install it:
Reinstall the affected app
Remove the app from your device and reinstall it:
Tap and hold any app icon on the Home Screen until the icons start to wiggle and show a small "x" in the top-left corner of the app.
Tap the "x" in the corner of the app you want to delete.
Tap Delete to remove the app and all of its data from your device.
Press the Home button.
Go to the App Store.
Search for the app and download it again.
Note: If it's a paid app, make sure you're using the iTunes account you purchased the app with originally. If it isn't, you may be asked to purchase the app again. Learn more about downloading previously purchased items.

I am unable to update my apps in IPAD 1. The App icon lists the updates but appears to be frozen. The individual app icons show the space where "waiting" usually appears and do not work. If I touch the apps icons, I get a message that states..."Unable to download. Do you want to try again." (or something similar).
See if this helps. Reboot your router - unplug it from power for about 30 seconds and then plug it back in again. Reboot/reset your iPad as well and then try again.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up. -

Unable to update iPad. Been backing up forever
Unable to update iPad. Been backing up forever
Hey there SHEEL.handa,
As I understand it, your Settings app installing an update correctly that it downloaded. I would start by quitting the Settings app:
iOS: Force an app to close
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that restart the device and test the issue again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
If the issue persists, use this part of the article about troubleshooting updating in this manner:
Resolve issues with an over-the-air iOS update
If the issue persists, try updating your device in another network or use iTunes to update your device. Learn more about iOS updates.

I am unable to update my apps... in my purchases page it appears as "update", then a message tells me to log on with the Apple ID I purchased the app with... Well I have tried my two different accounts and neither one will work, can someone help ??
And is there any way to sync all my purchases and accounts to just have one... It is a bit stupid that you dont even get a list of something of what account you may of used, or some kind of hint, so you could log on to the right account. I am really stuck ...
Please Advise......You can't merge accounts. But you can check your purchase history:

I am unable to update my App store Updations. the reason being billing problem asking to update payment method.Many a times i updated my credit card details but refusing from the system .how can i update my app store updations like Face book etc....Using ! phone 6plus .IOS8.3
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 -
I am unable to update my apps or to purchase anything
I am unable to update my apps or to buy anything after I created a new password. I am able to logon but nothing seems to work after i log on.
This is also an issue with my cell phone, I have updates but they wont install...Hello wfordnfl,
You might try completely signing out of your Apple ID on the affected devices, then signing back in.

I am unable to update my apps as for different app updates it ask password for different apple IDs
I am unable to update my apps as for different app updates it ask password for different apple IDs. About these many IDs i am unaware.
You only can update those Apps, if you know the Passwords from the AppleIDs, which were used for purchase.
If you´re unable to enter these Passwords you can´t update them.
You can delete those Apps from your device and purchase & download them again with your own known AppleID.
There is no other Way to get them updated. Because you are not the owner of those Apps. -

Delete the app then reinstall.
Hold the app icon down until all the apps jiggle then tap the x then tap Delete. Press the Home button once or twice to stop the jiggling.
Then go to the iTunes store and re download the app.
