Reset your iPad and see if that helps.
Reset 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 - let go of the buttons.

I keep getting an "unknown error" in App Store

Help please! when I try to purchase an App from the store it gives me an "unknown error" and won't let me purchase anything. can anyone help?

Here is a step-by-step of what worked for me:
Create a new user account - let's name it "Test" - I did not make this an administrator account
Log into that new user account (skipping the AppleID/iCloud screen)
Select "Software Update…" from the Apple menu - you will be asked to enter an administrator name and password in or to check for system updates - just provide your normal (admin-enabled) user name and password
If you have any updates available, click "Update All" and log into the AppStore with your normal AppleID/password (this should work since you are in a new user account)
(If you don't have any updates available, I assume that you can also log in using the menu item in the Store menu of the AppStore application though I have not tried that)
As soon as the download starts, you can quite the AppStore application
Log out of your test account and back into your normal account
Open /Applications/Utilies/Terminal
Type the following command:
sudo cp /Users/test/Library/Cookies/com.apple.appstore.plist Library/Cookies/
Open the AppStore again and you should be able to log back in
What does this do? It seems that the com.apple.appstore.plist file in your normal user account has become corrupted - we use a new account and create a new one (which is interchangebale since we use the same AppleID) and move that one back to the main account with the corrupt file.

Unknown Error in App Store

I have a 2012 Mac Mini. I downloaded Mavericks last week after the release. I have not been able to download an app off the app store since downloading Mavericks. I recieve the message unknown error. Any suggestions?

If you haven't already done so, sign out of the App Store and sign back in. If there's no change, log out or restart the computer and try again.

Unknown error -23 while downloading iOS 5

So I have been using the iPhone 4 for nearly a year and a half now with no issues whatsoever.
I wanted to update to the iOS 5 earlier today. When iTunes tried to download the OS, it failed with error -23, which is an unknown error. The rest of the message is a cryptic "there was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone <name>".
I went ahead and got the ipsw file for the GM release of iOS 5 anyway, and proceeded to install it using the "Restore" option (I kept Alt pressed on my keyboard and pointed iTunes to the ipsw file).
I now have iOS 5 on my phone and it works well. However, all my contacts have disappeared! iTunes has restored my music and my apps, but not my contacts. When I try to use the restore option and get my contacts back from an earlier back up, I experience the same error -23.
What worries me is that I haven't found a single relevant post on the web related to the specific error code "-23". I have no idea what the issue is and how I can correct it now.
Any help on this front will be greatly appreciated.
FYI,
iTunes: 10.5 (141)
Mac OSX: 10.6.8 (I gather that the latest version is 10.7.2, but I don't see this update in my software updates...is this an issue?).
I am from Singapore and I have a Singapore Apple ID. Please reach me if you want any more information.

Try this Link, it resolve my problems updating to IOS 5.

OAB in Outlook 2010 error "unknown error 0x8007007A" on download

Hi all.
We have an issue with OAB not downloading with error "unknown error 0x8007007A".
Autodiscovery test doesn't show any error and seems to be correct.
The only strange to me that I can't open OAB Url http://srv.domain.local/OAB/61555bea-e998-4edf-8eac-f919879e2950/ and have got 403 error (forbidden).
Also I've check the OAB folder on server and I have there a bunch of files.
We use Exchange 2010 and Outlook 2010.
What I should to do next to fix this error?

We have been battling this same problem for a number of years. This only happens on cached mode clients. I've seen it happen with Outlook 2010 and 2013. We have Exchange 2007.
We can't go around and delete and recreate everyone's mail profile every day. Whats the real solution? The error description is "unknown" so I think that's why its so hard to pinpoint the cause.

Shanky, the posts above are from 2012. If you're having an issue today, i'm certain its a different event. Please start a new thread about it and let me know everything that is happening. Note: I don't work weekends (usually), so I probably
wont get to this until Monday.
Try: downloading with your browser with no addon or third party download manager tools. making sure you can traceroute to download.msdn.microsoft.com, checking with your ISP.

Did Microsoft call you out of the blue about your computer?
No, they didn't.

Unknown error -9813; no downloading allowed!

This is getting very tiresome.
I rarely use iTunes-and I use the store even less.
But I found a song I wanted to download and went and opened the ITMS.
when I click on a song, and then try to log in, I get an "unknown error -9813-make sure you have a network connection" well, since i AM in ITMS-I must have a network connection, yes?
If I try to open a new account-same error.
To top it off, I decided to play one of the 5 songs I had in my library, and guess what- not available!
So I go into user/documents/iTunes...hey,wait a minute! there IS no iTunes folder with library inside!
I rather doubt that I trashed the folder, so Im willing to bet that iTunes 6 or 6.01 did it. grrrr.....
I have QT 7.03, ive trashed .plists and did a permissions/keychain repair. nothing.

As you know about permissions repair and suchlike I will guess that you have searched for files (or iTunes Library) on your computer or external HD (mine is on an external drive) to determine whether your library has in fact disappeared altogether.
I used to lose random music files on a fairly regular basis back in iTunes 4 and before but I have found that since version 5 things have been very stable.
Go to the Itunes preferences and click on the advanced cog wheel to see where it thinks your library is located. If it finds the library follow the path displayed... but if it isn;t there I'm not sure what to suggest apart from searcihng for individual music files... Search for m4p files to locate recent purchases.

I get an unknown error (-50) when downloading movies from iTunes

When I download a movie or TV show from iTunes, it starts downloading like normal, then the "time remaining" starts ticking up rapidly. Sometimes it keeps downloading, and then starts over suddenly, but eventually it always leads me to the (-50) unknown error. It also charges me for the movie/TV show. Any ideas how to fix it?

I have a 30g Video Ipod and I have been having
problems with it trying to syn up. I downloaded the
Vista update for it and still no syncing but when I
tried to update the Ipod I got this message.
Ipod cannot be updated. An unknown error occured
(-50).
If anyone knows what this means and possibly could
give me help with it, I would appreciate it very much.
Same thing happened to me last night. It was right after I DL the update given by apple for Windows Vista. I just closed everything restarted my computer and tried again and it worked. Just that now all my Album Artwork is messed up. I'm listening to Fall Out Boy and I get the artwork for Grey's Anatomy Podcast. Weird. I have no idea how to fix it either.

Unknown error in App Store Cannot download updates.

Saw that issue has be raised before but could not find a solution. Trying to update some apps, get this message: "There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (4)" Checked that my Apple ID, password, etc. are correct. Using Mountain Lion 10.8.5, on iMac, version of App store is q.2.2. Help needed. Stuck. Thanks

If you haven't already done so, sign out of the App Store and sign back in. If there's no change, log out or restart the computer and try again.

Unknown error? Cannot download anything

I am unable to download, update anything with the app store. I am running OS 10.7.5 on a mac book pro, I owe nothing on my account and all of my OS software is up to date. I also get an error message "There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (7)" I have inquired with apple support and was given not too much of an answer. I have a suspicion that this error may have to do with my permissions and the app store cannot write to its root folder. So i repaired my permissions and still nothing..... I am on the verge of just taking my mac pro to the apple store and have them take a look. Anyone have any suggestions?

Sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
1. Settings>Store>Apple ID.
2. Tap your ID and sign out.
3. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off.
4. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to download again.

"Insufficient Space" error preventing app download from App Store for MacBook Air 2013

Hi,
I am using a MacBook Air 2013 model with OS 10.9.4 (Mavericks). It has a 120 GB HD with about 17 GB of free space.
I am unable to download from the Mac App Store as I get an 'insufficient space available" error whenever I try to purchase a larger App (> 2 GB).
After looking through the forums I can confirm the following:
- Both the Finder and "About This Mac" report that 16.5 GB of space is available.
- I have toggled Time Machine and restarted my computer with it "On" and "Off".
- The application description does not mention needing more space for installation (specifically I am now trying to download BioShock 2 which needs about 9 GB).
I tried to contact Apple Support for the App Store and they informed me it was a hardware issue. I do not have Apple Care and do not think this is a hardware issue so would rather not pay the 20$ for support.
Cheers,

If you're trying to add a large amount of data all at once, and you get an alert of insufficient space, then from the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Time Machine
If the padlock icon is closed, click it to unlock the settings and authenticate. Turn Time Machine OFF, then back ON and close the preference pane. Restart the computer. Test.
