Updates won't download on my iPad, why?

Why won't my updates post onto my iPad.

Hi Mary...
Try "resetting" your iPad...
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that does not help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
Now try updating your apps. Now restart your iPad.
Restart your device: Hold the power button until "slide to power off" appears. Slide to power off. After it is off, press the power button to turn it back on.

The level after Carnival Upheaval in Angry Birds Rio won't download on my iPad. What can I do? It keeps saying "coming soon" when I go that next page.

The level after Carnival Upheavel in Angry Birds Rio won't download on my iPad. It says it s coming soon on the screen.
Is there something I can do to get it to download?
Thank you for any support you can give me.

That likely means that it doesn't exist yet. It's up to rovio (angry birds maker) to get it to you. Theyll likely have it as an update eventually. Angry Birds is very good at promoting itself.

HT1911 I just verified my Apple user ID and password but certain updates won't download (gives me the signal that I'm incorrect). I keep changing it, verifying but not all applications let me proceed.

Unless you have a copy of the iPod backup file from the previous computer installation you are out of luck. If yo have that file move it to your computer and restore the iPod from that backup. Otherwise, you will have to restore the iPod to factoery defaults/new iPod and lose all your app date. That is the way it is since the iPod sees the computer as a new computer/iTunes library. That backup file is located:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\

App updates won't download...error purchasing app message on 8.1.3

hello, since 3-4 days I notice that app updates aren't downloading on my iPad air 2. I have iOS 8.1.3. I see the message "error purchasing this app" being displayed wherever I tap the update button. When i do "update all", nothing happens...I have tried resetting to default functions, without any resolution..appreciate any help I can get with this issue. Thanks, BVPai

Hi, Bvpai.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand that you are unable your Apps via the App Store on your iPad. Here is the troubleshooting article that I would go through when experiencing this issue.
Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update(iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clickingCheck for Update on your device's Summary page.
Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guidefor your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.

Latest PS6 update won't download

Latest (13.0.2) PS update, for Creative Cloud only, will not completely download, much less install. All other Cloud programs (e.g., Illustrator) download and update without a problem. I've been on the phone or chat with Adobe techs for at least 15 hours, without any improvement or change in the situation. I have an open case on this issue but do not get any contact from Adobe unless I initiate it--which is a major time suck, of course.
Am running Windows 7. Have tried download wired and wireless. Have de- and re-installed PS at least 4-5 times. This installs original version 13.0. I had been running version 13.0.1 and can update to it, but that no longer runs properly. Have removed ALL Adobe software and files and re-installed. Have updated video driver. Have "updated" App Mgr several additional times.
Can't think what else to try, and am not looking forward to another fruitless 4-hour phone call to Adobe help.
I'd obviously appreciate any ideas. Thanks.
Gail

Sorry to be so short--was in car with only phone. Thanks for the thought.
I spent hours and hours with a senior tech at Adobe. He cleaned out
everything once, and worked only on PS several times. He did several of
the downloads at his end. No one seems to know what the problem is, and it
is a problem only for Photoshop/Cloud update. The program itself seems ok,
but the first update doesn't work right (e.g., can't open original of
photos from LR4.3 into PS or copies with LR adjustments). The second, most
recent, update won't download past 99%. "Tis a mystery.

I changed my apple id on my ipad, but updates won't download

I changed the Apple ID on my Ipad(8.1.3) to make it the same as my iMac Apple ID. Now, although it shows the app updates, it won't download them When I tap on update, the little gearish wheels spins for ages, but nothing down loads.

Thanks. I think. So there is no way to have all 3 of my devices, which were purchased a different times, share an Apple ID. What a drag!

Changed password and I can't update anything or download anything on Ipad?

On my Ipad, for Itunes store or for any updates, I cannot access anything even though I changed my password twice and had it reset.
Why can't I update anything or download anything on my Ipad?

This honestly one big WAG:
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

HP Laptop brand new 99 windows 8 updates won't download

I am helping a lady I work with with her HP Laptop. She forgot her password so I have her laptop and I restored the system. Windows 8 has 99 updates that will not download. At least I do not think they are downloading, the bar just moves for 5 minutes but it shows 0 KB total and 0 complete for 5 minutes or longer. So I quit and give up. I have no idea why none of the updates are not downloading. I even disabled the firewall thinking that might help.

Hi, That is very normal. My suggestion: split 99 to 3 or 4 batches and try do not combine all big updates together. This may take one hour or two but next month this will be much quicker. Regards.

Downloads such as adobe flash update won't download even when anti virus is disabled. The download box appears and runs but doesn't show anything.

Any updates or downloads won't download in Firefox. The download box appears, goes thru the motions but doesn't park anything in the file. I usually have to quite Mozilla, use Explorer for the download, such as Go to Meeting, or Adobe updates. Can't download anything with Firefox from your browser.

I am having the same issue -- IE7, XP SP3... Flash Player
will not download or install, but will download and install for
Netscape. Must be an IE7 issue, but I can't find a solution. If you
find something out, it would be freat!

Itunes & software update won't download

I opened iTunes today and it said there is an update so I clicked Download.
When the App store opens, a couple old apps like Final Cut are still up there that also don't work as well as a new Software Update.
I hit Install All and nothing happened apart from an error message about Final Cut.
I restarted twice and still it's happening, although iTunes and Software updates won't show up.

Did you try simply downloading the latest version of iTunes using the link below and then installing it on top of the older version?

Updates won't download

I have iTunes 8.1.1.10 installed, and when I try to update it, the download starts then stops after 12.1 of 14.7mb downloads. The first 12.1 goes in a minute or so, but it never finishes.
I get the same behavior when trying to update Safari.
I'm running Vista Home Premium on a Dell Inspiron laptop. Disabling Defender and McAfee doesn't seem to help.
What could be the problem? It's been a long time since I've been able to update any Apple products - perhaps it never worked.
Thanks in advance.

Hi RB
I already did what you suggest (a direct download), of a former version of iTunes (8.something) and it installed correctly, but did not solve the problem of the downloader hangs. Every time a new download is made available, the downloader stops to dl and hangs.
Interesting. I wonder if you've got a damaged version of Apple Software Update on your PC.
Do you have a known-good copy of the latest iTunes installer (downloaded from the website) on your PC? If so, try heading into your Add or Remove programs control panel and uninstalling both iTunes and Apple Software Update. Then use your downloaded installer to reinstall iTunes. That should also reinstall a copy of Apple Software Update.
Does the fresh copy of Apple Software Update also hang when trying to install updates?

Https-everywhere Won't update & Won't Download, What Should i do?

its my old post i made to another Firefox forum Topic, it was off topic there & there i asked how to solve the issue
why docent https-everywhere update? & from the site it won't let me install the new version neither, i have 4.0.2, & new version is 4.0.3, from here, its official site https://www.eff.org/https-everywhere
i was reading from here about it https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1008579 is it bad idea to use it if it has issues with Mozilla? should i replace it with add that is mentioned in that Mozilla topic?
NEW TXT:
got new version a different way, but is it bad i wonder?
should i replace it with something? & with what?
This?
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/enforce-encryption/
anymore suggestions for its replacement? or is this link above best?
i heard it causes problems to some, what kind of problems? like when writing comment suddenly all freezes for few sec so u cant write? & page loading lag where loading freezes for few sec sometimes? are this issues caused by https-everywhere
Off The Topic questions:
BDW in profile folder Addblock folder still exists, why? when i removed it long time ago, does ABE use addblock files cause there were blocked sites on there that ABE did not have when i installed ABE?
i want to know, what is NVIDIA 3D VISION & what it does, & should i always enable it on youtube, or should i switch it to never ask from plugins?
should i disconnect after sync? can connection to sync server cause some issues to, like slight lag after deleting a bookmark? can go to another opened tab, but cant open 1 of the bookmarked pages from bookmarks for few sec after deleting a bookmark, or is there issue with More In Content UI + 2.2

no idea are this things connected about committed Physical memory

this picture was taken 3-4 hours back, new it is 12,3/13,8GB, & its with firefox, is it normal or is one of the add causing it, to fix 1 issue i tried refresh, but it did not work then i overwrote the files with old files what were created with refresh (the issue i tried to fix with refresh got solved somehow), then i manually downloaded https-everywhere newest version, + HTML5 Add-on what u will see on this picture:
https://fud.community.services.support.microsoft.com/Fud/FileDownloadHandler.ashx?fid=ece94450-f791-48f4-a31d-44f00295a632
is the thing with committed Physical memory normal or does this means Physical memory leaks? & is it connected with https-everywhere or some other add, or with me overwriting files or did windows update have that effect, or is it normal?
13,8 shows limit, as i understand it, but if the limiter also changes, isn't it strange?
or is it cause i am connected to the Sync server or how to call it, browser connected to Mozilla acc, can that cause problems to?
also widows (or Firefox) instead of increasing the maximum Committed, the limit it should overwrite (or clean) old page files, so far it seems to have done it & i use same pages for weeks & yesterday the way Committed is used changed, no longer overwrites, i imagine if i watch videos with out sleep a month or 2 my Harddrive would be full of Virtual memory, more the Committed limit increases the more Harddrive space it takes & it grows with each video i watch, i closed browser once so it reset, new its 2,4/13,7BG, but it increases later on

Keep getting update messages but the update won't download

On clicking to update in the the update widow, it looks to be attempting to do something but nothing downloads. I get the message to update almost everyday (3.6.16 I think). Also Firefox 4 "yahoo" won't install. On opening the application/update, it has a white circle with a line through the firefox logo, and won't drag to the applications folder.
I'm using Mac OSX10.4.11

Nah, going to the admin user to attempt the update in the way you suggest just shows that firefox4 is not compatible with Mac OS 10.4.
But what I am really after os the so-called Yahoo optimised version, which in the system requirements says that 10.4 and Mac G4 is ok.
So why the issue?
In fact I had allready tried to do this install from the admin account.
