Unable to update or download apps.

Hi,
I'm unable to download or update any apps on my iPhone. I have tried rebooting and restoring the phone a few times. I am able to download and update apps on my iPad which shares the same iTunes ID.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Have you tried a hard reset. Hold the sleep/wake button and home button both together until the phone shuts off. Then press the sleep/wake button to power it back on.

  • I am suddenly unable to update or download apps on my iphone 3G.  It says "the download will be available after you log in to itunes from your computer." I never had to do that before.  Even when I do log in from the computer, it still doesn't work.

    I am suddenly unable to update or download apps on my iphone 3G.  It says "the download will be available after you log in to itunes from your computer." I never had to do that before.  Even when I do log in from the computer, the download still doesn't work.  So what's going on?  Why would I need to go the computer to download an app to my phone?  That defeats the whole purpose of having the phone, which is to do stuff when you are not at the computer!@!@  Any help greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

    - Try a reset. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Nework Settings. You will have rejoin networks
    - Go to Settings>Store and sign out of account and sign back ino
    Do you have a very slow wif connection on the iPod?
    Have you tied connecting to another network?

  • Unknown error message when trying to update or download Apps?

    Hello!  I have had no problems till now, and have been happily downloading and updating for 9 months.  Yesterday I received an unknown error message when I tried to update an App on my IPad 2, and have since been unable to update or download. Have tried closing down and restarting, changing password, and usual things.  Any good ideas? Does this happen often?  Everything is working, I simply can't download from App store.  Thank you for any helpful suggestions.

    Read my post in this discussion. Signing in and out of the account worked for the OP in that thread.

  • Unable to update or download anything with my Apple ID

    I am unable to update or download anything on my iTunes or App Store because it says my apple ID is invalid because I entered my password incorrectly too many times. Although I've changed my apple password multiple times since hoping it would work and it still does not.

    Hello zyrah_jaid27,
    It seems you are unable to access your Apple ID to make purchases. The following article provides the steps you'll need to take to access it again:
    If your Apple ID has been locked - Apple Support
    If you or someone else enters your password incorrectly too many times, your Apple ID will automatically be locked to protect your security.  
    You might see one of these alerts:
    “This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons”
    "You can't sign in because your account was disabled for security reasons"
    "This Apple ID has been locked for security reasons"
    If your Apple ID was locked, you can go to iForgot to unlock it with your existing password or reset your password. You can also click the Reset Password or Forgot Password button in the alert. Remember to type your full email address when you're asked to enter your Apple ID. For example, [email protected] or [email protected]. If you use two-step verification for Apple ID, you need to use your recovery key and a trusted device to regain access to your account.
    If you can't reset your password and you don't use two-step verification, contact Apple Support. Update your password in iCloud settings
    After you change your password, you might need to update it in iCloud settings on your devices.
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    Go to Settings > iCloud.
    Tap Edit, if asked.
    Type your new password and tap Done.
    Mac
    Go to Apple menu > System Preferences.
    Click iCloud.
    Click Sign Out.
    Type your new password and click Sign In.
    Windows
    Choose Start > Control Panel.
    Double-click iCloud.
    Click Sign Out.
    Type your new password and click Sign In.
    Email
    If you use an email app to get iCloud email, the app will ask you to enter your new password when you check for mail. If OS X Mail doesn't ask you for your password, check your Mail preferences. For any other mail app, check the app's documentation to get help changing your email password.Update other services, such as iTunes and FaceTime
    If you use your Apple ID in the iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, iMessage, Game Center, or FaceTime, you might need to update your password for those services.
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    Go to Settings and tap the service. 
    Tap your Apple ID. For iMessage, tap Send & Receive and then tap your Apple ID. 
    Tap Sign Out.
    Sign in with your Apple ID and your new password.
    Mac or PC
    If you try to sign in to the iTunes Store or Mac App Store, make a purchase, or update an app, you'll be asked to enter your password.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,

  • I have an apple ID, I'm trying to use this to update and download apps etc. however, whenever I try this, it keeps asking me to use my old ID, which is attached to an email that no longer exists! I can't download or update anything! Help!

    I have an apple ID, I'm trying to use this to update and download apps etc. however, whenever I try this, it keeps asking me to use my old ID, which is attached to an email that no longer exists! I can't download or update anything! Help!

    You can log out of the currently logged in account by taping on the id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and you can then log back in.
    If you updated your existing account with a new email address then that shoud 'refresh' it on it
    If you created a new account then any content that you purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can redownload its content and download updates to its apps. You should be able to update an account's email address via this page : http://appleid.apple.com

    You must contact iTunes support to get the problem resolved.
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
    If there is a problem with your account or payment info, you cannot
    download anything (including free apps or updates) until the matter
    is resolved.
    In countries where the iTunes Store only sells apps, the accepted payment methods are Visa, MasterCard, and American Express. Other payment types such as gift cards, store credit, monthly allowances, ClickandBuy, and PayPal are not accepted. Depending on your App Store country, prices may be listed in your local currency, US Dollars, or Euros.    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5552

  • My app store on my ipod wouldn't let me update or download apps?

    I have the ipod 5th gen and ever since I downloaded the scribblenauts remix and brought the dlc with it, I can't update or download apps anymore. It keeps on sending me to my payment method and saying that there's a billing problem. I have money on my card and I have tried to sign in and sign out of my account and everything but it still doesn't help. Can someone help me?

    Contact iTunes. You need a valid payment method and the messages says you do not have that.

  • I changed my Apple ID password and validated it OK but when I try to update or download apps now it asks me to enter password and then says it's not been validated.  how do I get out of this?

    I changed my Apple ID password and successfully validated it.  Problem is the iPad App Store won't recognise me anymore.  if I select an App to update it asks me to enter password, then says "You have not verified your Application ID.Tap OK to view the instructions on how to verify your ID.".
    A new pop up box then appears saying an email has been sent to my address.  The box to resend this is greyed out and the bottom line says "your email has already been validated successfully. thank you."
    Any suggestions on how to solve this problem and force the iPad to let me update or download Apps again?

    Same issues here. I try and log into face time and cloud, it tells me my email is not veryfied. I go back through the link sent in the verification email and, low and behold, it tells me my address has already been veryfied.
    Getting really annoyed now. I have tried using a different email to log in with, but not even getting the verify email in my inbox, even after it states it has sent one.
    CMON APPLE!!! Please resolve this glitch.

  • How do I delete and Apple ID ? I had a friend transfer all my stuff from his computer and I go to update or download apps his ID pops up and asks for his password instead of mine! Ugh so frustrated right now

    How do I delete and Apple ID ? I had a friend transfer all my stuff from one phone to another using his computer.  I can't  update or download apps, his ID pops up and asks for his password instead of mine! Ugh so frustrated right now!

    You can't delete an Apple ID. Furthermore, everything you transferred is tied permanently to your friend's Apple ID. You do not legally own that software. If you want that software for yourself, then you need to purchase it using your Apple ID.

  • Can't update or download apps iOS 8.1.2

    I've been trying to update and download apps for a while now and it simply can't. I've tried to stop the download and start it again but it cannot download. The only thing that happens is that the app become unavailable and it either waits (the blue spinning circle) or the download image (circle with a square) appears. But there's no progress whatsoever.
    I have an iPhone 5s and I'm running on iOS 8.1.2, before I updated it worked perfectly, so is it an iOS problem? Or what should I do?
