Usability Glitches in The App Store

Got my ipad yesterday and i'm fully excited, but there are some little things that should've been done better.
For instance, there is this ONE Bug that's driving me crazy:
When I'm in the app store on the iPad, click to page 3 or 4 in the Highlights section, find an app which seems to interest me, I tap on it to see the details. So far, so good.
Here's what's bugging me: If I now tap 'back', I often (not always) end up on page 1 again and have to tap all the way to my previous location again. That ***** big time.
I noticed the same behavior in the iPhone App Store.
Please fix this, Apple.

Please fix this, Apple.

  • How can I fix my App Store on my iPod. When I go to the App Store and click on updates then click on purchased it won't load up the purchased apps. It says its loading then it flashes black and goes to my home screen. How can I fix it

    My iPod has a glitch in the App Store. When I go to the App Store and click on updates then click on purchased it won't load up my purchased apps it says it is loading then it flashes black and goes to my home screen. How can I fix it??

    Have you udated to iOS 6.0.1?
    Otherwise
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: 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 all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • Mountain Lion isn't letting me use the App Store, Can someone help me?

    I thought that mountain lion will be a very useful software upgrade. After I downloaded Mountain Lion, I can't connect to the App Store and I can't turn dictation on. Can someone please help me?

    I am having the same problem. There is a glitch with the app store, that non-admins cannot connect to the app store. Try using the admin account overwise i'm not sure on that one.
    I have no clue for dictation is it all faded out? That is how mine is, it is probably just a problem with the new software and they will release an upadte for that but if the app store is not working how can we receive the new release?
    You'd of thought that apple would of run tests or something to see what happens when you download mountian lion. If i find anything i will keep you informed.

  • Why does the side scroll in the app store drop down?

    Hey everyone,
    I figured I'd post a question in relation to something that has been nagging me...
    Everytime I go to the app store and review the scrollable screen shots on the details tab, the screen drops down after each pic.
    Is this a iPhone 4S thing after the iOS 6.## due to the larger screen on the iPhone 5 or is this a glitch within the app store?

    The general answer is to go to the app store, log in to the Apple ID you used to purchase the apps (or if they came with a new system the AID you registered it with) and go to purchased apps and download
    For specific questions you need to contact the app store support

  • Since I've updated my iPad to iOS 6 it's running a lot slower especially when I scroll up and down and takes ages to load up on the App Store I know they got glitches but are they gonna be sorting this out as well ?

    Since I've updated my iPad to iOS 6 it's running a lot slower especially when I scroll up and down and takes ages to load up on the App Store I know they got glitches but are they gonna be sorting this out as well ?

    Hi!
    I am also having issues with the device since updating to IOs 6. The time between clicking an icon, i.e. a picture, and the load of that picture takes longer enough to notice it. It did not happen before the update.
    I am also having problems with some applications, specially the Facebook application. When I click on my picture in the right bar of the app, it promps a window that ask me for share my location, etc.. and get freeze there.
    Regarding reseting the device, already done. It did not helped.
    Also, SIRI is very nice, but sometimes it stop working and I have to re-start the device in order to being able to use SIRI again. When it happens, it looks like SIRI is sending the information, but does not do anything after.
    It is understandable that they require some time to get the new IOs version working properly, but I dont like to be a Beta tester.

  • My rue la la app for ipad suddenly dosent work so I deleted it now when I try to reinstall it the app store says that it not available in the us. It is still on my Iphone and working properly. What is this all about?

    My rue la la app for ipad stopped working. I deleted the app and tried to reinstall it,  it is no longer available in the app store and when I research it on safari and find it when i try to install it says that it is not available in the us store. What is that all about?

    My app did the exact same thing. It is still unavailable on the App Store and when Rue La La's site directs you to download their app, the "not available in the U.S. message appears. This happened to me last night. The app wasn't working, I deleted it and was just going to reinstall but was unable to find the app. I figured it was some glitch but I have tried multiple times this afternoon to no avail.

  • TS1702 i have purchaced many apps from the app store, and now after updating my phone to iOS 6, the apps sitting in my library in iTunes wont transfer to my phone anymore? Says that the apps can not be found. The appstore says i have no bought apps either

    I have previously bout about 30-40 apps from the app store. After a recent update to the newest version of iOS (and a reset back to factory standards), i find that i cant put any of the apps from my iTunes library, back onto my phone!? When i try, it says that the apps location cant be found!?  I tried going into the app store and in the app section going into 'Purchaces', in the hope that i could just re-install them from there (because i have already paid for them), but in there, it tells me that there are NO apps in my purchaces list!?  This is quite concerning because i have spent quite a bit of money on these apps, that now seem to be un-usable?!   Ican still put all my music on my phone through iTunes liuke normal, but Podcasts are doing the same thing as the apps?! Can someone please help me, or suggest what to do because im really getting frustrated.  I really like my iPhone, but if this is what is going to keep happening, i think ill change to an Android phone. . . . .

    Thanks too all the people who responded. . . . (noone)
    Got it sorted though. Seems that Apple has issues with multiple apple id's.
    Seems i had to somehow remember and use the original id i had when i first bought my 1st iPhone. . . .
    Even after that it was extremely hard to get my apps back on my PC.
    If anyone else has the same problem. . . .email Apple. Cya.

  • An app I downloaded is no longer showing up on my screen. The app store shows thar it needs to be updated, but the update bottom is colored light, not dark.

    I downloaded Pandora a while back. My 12 year old nieces were playing with my iPad and now the Pandora icon is not on my screen. The app store shows that it needs to be updated, but I can't do it. What can it do to recover my Pandora program?

    Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, my query is not so much about the sale of the company and the dream. I agree with you on that point. Good for them. My frustration is that this old app has now caused a glitch in my Apple App Store icon. I have a red badge with one update and it is referring to the old app that has been sold that needs to be updated. When I try to update the app it says no longer available for purchase. So I have since deleted that app in hopes that it would resolve the red badge issue. It has not. Somehow, that old app and the new app with the same name but by a different company has caused the glitch. I have reset all settings on my iPad, I have rebooted, I have deleted the app and still the red badge with the one update for the old app is there. Hmmm. . . I guess I need to take this into the Genius bar or wait for ios 7 in hopes that it will fix the glitch. Thanks again for your help.

  • Pages will not allow me to retrieve documents any longer.  No update available, but the message tells me to update in the App Store!

    I'm completely updated, except for two unimportant apps that seem to have some sort of glitch, and no new update is showing up for Pages, yet when I try to retrieve my documents, the message says, "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document".   The only thing that I see when I go into the App Store is a new version for $19.99.   How can I update without paying?  I just want to print my documents for safety and then never use Pages again.

    Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has not only managed to confuse all its users, but also itself.
    Note: Apple has removed over 90 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

    Archive/trash Pages 5, after exporting all Pages 5 files to Pages '09 or Word .docx, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

  • Os x lion is unavailable in the app store when I try to reinstall it on a new hard drive

    I have a 2007 mac book pro that has been working perfectly, but my hard drive is dead. So I bought an external hard drive, formatted it to install OS X on it.
    When the computer starts I only have the recovery mode.
    When I try to re install lion with the usual recovery mode, everything is ok until I enter my apple ID, then the procedure stops and I have an alert saying that "This item is temporarily unavailable, try again later".
    Thx!

    My app did the exact same thing. It is still unavailable on the App Store and when Rue La La's site directs you to download their app, the "not available in the U.S. message appears. This happened to me last night. The app wasn't working, I deleted it and was just going to reinstall but was unable to find the app. I figured it was some glitch but I have tried multiple times this afternoon to no avail.

  • Why does everyone else on their school ipad have access to the App Store and basically anything they want? Why is it that I don't have access to any of that?  How do I get access to that stuff?

    Ok I don't know why in the world everyone else has access to the App Store and almost anything they want. Guess what I have access to? Yea that's right I have access to nothing that they have! I believe that their iPads are glitching and that might be how they got access to them! I hate how I don't have any access when I don't have access to anything that they have access to! They have almost no restrictions on their iPads and I have all the restrictions that the school sets!

    I don't know if you're looking for us to offer a solution to you?  We can't.  If your school has set restrictions on your iPad, you need to discuss this with your school system admin.

  • My iPad mini shows 10 updates in the App Store-on the updates icon, but when I click it-the screen is blank. Help!!

    My iPad mini shows 10 updates in the App Store-on the updates icon, but when I click it-the screen is blank. Help!!

    It's a long running glitch, as the hundreds of threads on this topic demonstrate.
    You  can wait it out and wait for Apple to fix the servers or you can go  into your purchased tab and manually download each update (you'll find  the app icons with little update banners on them.
    Alternatively,  if you sync with a computer, you can use the iTunes on your computer to  download the updates then sync them onto your device.

  • My App Store is deleted and the option to turn it back on in restrictions is grayed out. How do I get the App Store back?

    My App Store is deleted and the option to turn it back on in restrictions is grayed out. How do I get the App Store back?

    If a reset didn;t work, then you can try restoring your iPad. Don't restore from a back up because if there is a glitch with restrictions, it will just set that option up again. Of if you are sure you have a backup created before you changed restrictions settings, then you can back up from that.

  • I wanted to get this app from the app store but it wouldn't load the app after typing it in the search box

    Hey apple or who ever is going to answer the question I'm about to give,
         Anyway, my question Why isn't my app store working? Is there a glitch in the IOS 7 or something. But let me get into further detail about my situation. I wanted to get this app from the app store. When I click on the app everything is fine at first, but then i click on the "search button" and I type out the name of the app.And usually the name of the app would pop up to what it appears be a list of the names of each app, but that never happened. Then, I clicked "enter" or "search" and it wouldn't load after hours and hours. And then I decided to go to the settings and see whats up with the app. I scoll down and click on the "ITunes & App Store" with an arrow pointing right. Once I clicked it, it freezes. But I haven't updated my phone (its IOS 7 but theres an update for IOS 7.1 or something like that)
    Regards,
    Veronica M.

    Reset the device then try the App Store.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    No data is lost due to a reset.
    When you can, yes, there's an update available.
    Tap Settings > General > Software Update

  • Attempting to download Lion from the app store, get error code "NSPortTimeoutException".  I am currently running 10.6.8 Thanks for any assistance

    I get the message about 3/4 way through the download from the App Store.  I have run software update, still no success.

    While the hardware will probably need a RAM upgrade, since I highly doubt Lion will work usably on 2GB, I think the main problem you are facing is a connectivity issue. The full Lion installer download weighs in at around 3-4GB so it is gonna take a long time. And if it gets interrupted, well...
    Maybe search around for an alternate connectivity arrangement? And be sure to run Software Update first; there was an update to the App Store application a short while back for the Lion version, might also have one for the SL version.
