What can I do to be able to download and update apps?

Just recently mu ¡Pad stopped downloading apps and updates from the store! It just sits there with the blank icon stripe empty for several minutes and the message "can not contact the App Store".
The same thing happens when I try to update my current apps.
I have downloaded an app since then from the website on soundcloud without problem, but can not download from the store.
Everything else works fine. My connection is working on all sites. I can go to the store, browse, get additional info on the apps but when I attempt to download, nothing happens except the eventual message that I can't connect.
Can anyone help me?

See if anything in here helps.

  • I can't download and update app

    I can't download and update app for 2 days it show waiting and cannot connect to itune store,please help me! I try to sign out and sign in apple id but it's not work

    For the Can't connect to the iTunes Store Message .....
    Go to Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead a year or two. You will probably get some sort of error message telling you to correct the date so that you can connect to the server. Go back to the setting and set the date and time to Automatically on again.
    See if you can can connect to the iTunes store.
    For the "waiting" icons .....
    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.

    Your Apple ID is tied to the US store. Log out of the store, then trying logging back in.

  • Can't download and update app's via app store

    Hello. When i try to download or update app's from app store on my mac, there is a message box with the following text-" We could not complete your request.There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (4)"
    any idea?

    try booting to safe mode (restart while holding down the shift key) and once booted there open the app store and try downloading the updates and see if it works.
    if it doesn't try a new test user to install the updates. the following article tells how to create a new acct on the mac:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4600 (make sure you make it an admin account so it can authorize software installations)
    hope one of these solutions works for you!

  • Not able to download or update apps on iphone

    I'm not able to update or download apps on my iphone 5 (iOS 6.1.2). I'm logged in, but when I tap update all or update next to the individual app or install at a new app, nothing happens. It's as if the phone is not registering my tap - or that there is some restriction in place. Any suggestions?

    User troubleshooting steps are in this order:
    1. Turn your phone off, then back on.
    2. Reset.
    3. Restore from Backup.
    4. Restore as a New device.
    Since a reset didn't change anything, signing out/in didn't change anything & restrictions are not on, a restore from backup would be the next step.

  • Is my 3g redundant? will I get compensation for not being able to download or update apps?

    Seriously unhappy that there is no update for 3g. Now I cant download apps that I need.

    The last upgrade that was available for the 3G was November 2010. No further updates have been available for the 20 months since then.  Why have you waited so long to complain?

  • I can't seem to be able to download apps with IOS 8. I have been able to with other IOS 7 and IOS 6. Any suggestions?

    I Can't seem to be able to download (or update) any apps on IOS 8.0, and I have been able to download apps on IOS 7 and IOS 6. I have 5.2 GB of available space on my iPad (4th generation) and I have only used 7.1 GB on my 16GB ipad. I have a full two bars of Internet. Again I have been able to download things with two bars in the past using IOS 7 and IOS 6. Any suggestions would be helpful. =3    Sorry for the incorrect spelling  

    You might try just waiting. There are millions of people activating their iPhones today and people still trying to get iOS8, so the servers are swamped. I'd give it a couple of days and if it still doesn't work then try some troubleshooting.

  • Can't download or update apps.

    Hi
    I have had an iPod for a couple of years and bought an iPhone earlier this year over the Internet (sent from the US). Until recently I could download and update apps on both devices. But now when I try to do this on my iPhone I get a message that I cannot use the US app store and should switch to the Danish store. I live in Denmark and have downloaded iTunes here. So I can't understand why I need to switch. When I look at my iTunes account only the iPod seems to be registered. How can I add the iPhone to the account/switch to the Danish app store? I hope some bright person can help. Thanks in advance.

    Hi again
    After reading through some of the similar questions and solutions, I managed to solve the problem myself. Thanks for a great forum :-)

  • My iphone4s can not update any apps. Nor is it able to download any new apps. What should I do?

    my iphone4s can not update any apps. Nor is it able to download any new apps. What should I do?
    I have two Apple Accounts. One in Switzerland and one in China. I used to be able to updates all of my apps by clicking individual apps. One day I clicked update all by accident. Ever since that, my iphone cannot update any of the apps. Nor is it able to download any new apps. Please kindly let me know how to make the phone back into work with the apps.
    Many thanks.

    I find it difficult to believe that it took you a year to realize your phone was defective.
    Restore the phone as new. Wait a couple of days before adding any apps to see if it's running ok. Then, add apps a couple at a time so that, if any of them cause issues, you'll have an idea which one.

  • If i used the same apple id and email to set up both my ipad and ipod what can i do to be able to use face time to call from one device to the other

    if i used the same apple id and email to set up both my ipad and ipod what can i do to be able to use face time to call from one device to the other

    They can share an Apple ID, but each device must use a different email address when setting up FaceTime.  Create a gmail email (or hotmail, or ...) address and use that on one of the devices when you setup FaceTime.
    You don't actually have to use the 'new' email address, it is probably just used as an index to reference the correct device when initiating a call via the FaceTime server.

  • I updated my iPhone 4S and now my iTunes (10.6.1) won't read it. It said to update, but 10.7 won't work on my computer because it's a Mac 10.8. I can't find the iTunes 10.6.3 anywhere. What can I do to be able to sync my computer and phone?

    iTunes 10.7 does indeed work on OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion. Do you mean you have Mac OS X 10.5.8 Leopard? If so, and you updated your iPhone 4S to iOS 6 on some other computer, then you may be out of luck synching to your 10.5.8 system, but you can get and try 10.6.3 here:

  • TS4006 If I'm receiving a message "all devices are online, but cannot be located" what can I do to be able to locate the devices on a map?

    If I'm receiving a message "all devices are online, but cannot be located" what can I do to be able to locate the devices on a map?

    My understanding is that a device must have access to either WiFi, a cellular network, or (best) GPS in order to establish a location. Of course iPhones can access all three and iPads also if they incorporate cellular.  However, Mac computers don't have GPS or cellular.
    So if a Mac is connected to Internet via Ethernet to a LAN and not WIFi it will not be able to establish a location.  Anyway, that's my experience.

    Get Flip4Mac (for Windows Media videos):

    And Perian for everything else:
