When I click on the App Store I can only see "games" at the top of the screen, I can't see any Apps?

Recently I have noticed that when I click on the App Store on my iPad it defaults to "games" at the top of the screen and I can't see any new apps? Previously it defaulted to Apps and you had to chose "games"  but now it seems to default to games and I don't know how to view apps without searching for the specific one?

I am surely missing something very simple, and hopefully Ralph will see it, but no matter what I do, I cannot replicate what you are seeing, try something I recommend time and again. CLose the App Store app and reboot your iPad.
Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the App Store app and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Reboot 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • 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.

  • When I click on video it is stuck on one tv show, when I click 'done' the screen goes black so I can't access any other video that I downloaded from iTunes onto my iPad 2. How do I troubleshoot?

    The video on my iPad 2 is frozen on a tv show, although it will play the tv show until the end. At the end, when I click 'done' the screen goes black so I can't see the other movies that I've downloaded. I've shut down a few times but it reverts to the same thing. How can I re-set the video feature or do what is necessary to get it working again?

    Have you tried resetting the iPad:
    Reset iPad:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • IPhoto will not open... I am Mac OS X Version 10.7.4.  When I click on the IPhone icon nothing happens.  Any suggestions?  Thanks.

    The IPhoto program will not open.  I am using Mac OS X Version 10.7.4
    When I click on the icon nothing happens. 
    Any suggestions?  Thanks.

    From that point on whenever I try to open iPhoto it tells me I must install "iPhoto library upgrader."
    I installed this and now it just keeps telling me the same.
    Now you have to go to the Applications/Utilities folder and double click on the updater to actually run it.
    Deleting a photo from this version is exactly the same as other versions.

  • Iphone 6 tells me that "Item not available" in my country UK, when i click on the itunes store icon for the app to open the music, movies or tv shows section of the app. is this a bug?

    I am based in the UK and have just got a new iphone 6, everything works well except when i try to turn on the itunes store app -  i can do a search and buy music etc that way, within the app, however, if i go to Music, Movies or the TV shows section within the Store app, i get a message come up saying "Item Not Available" - This item you've requested is not currently available in the UK Store, but it is available in the US store. Tap Change Store to view this item".   I therefore cannot browse the music, movies or tv shows sections at all, nothing shows up except that message.  All my previous itunes purchases have downloaded ok, and i can access them. My apple ID works fine and restrictions on the iphone are turned OFF. The App Store app works normally. Connection etc is all fine and I can access itunes  in the normal way on my ipad and laptop, so this is just an iphone problem. Any ideas? is this a bug? I cant find anyone else with exactly the same problem. By the way, the same message comes up when i click on the red Music icon, on the iphone (situated next to the Safari icon) and then go to the "Store" via that app.  my playlists are in tact, but as soon as i click that Store button, I am told that the Item is unavailable - not that i have chosen any Item lol, I just want to access the store in the normal way. Thank you in advance for any suggestions you can give

    It is working now. I no longer get the message about the item not being available in the US and I can access the store.

    You need to sync the app to the iPod
    iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod       
    Is the app compatible with your model iPod and iOS?
    Are any Restrictions set that would prevent installing the app on your iPod? Settings>General>Restrictions
    Do any apps no sync to the iPod?
    Does any media now sync to the iPod?
    Have you successfully synced aps to this iPod from this iTunes library before?

    I have installed OS6 on my iPhone 4.  A new App is Passbook. When I click on the App Store bar at the bottom of the Passbook page a message pops up saying Cannot connect to iTunes Store.  That's wrong isn't it? It should not be trying to connect to the iTunes Store but to the App Store?.

    It should be telling you to download the latest iTunes on your computer... you can't install iTunes on your iPhone.

  • Can't download Lion. When I click on the Lion icon in the App store, nothing happens?

    Can't download Lion. When I click on the Lion icon in the App store, nothing happens?

    I hate the fact that I found this topic on Google, but after I had to log in to post this reply it took me somewhere else!  Again, a site designed by people who must never use their own software.  Any site that makes you log in to use a feature should not cast you adrift one you've logged in for the express purpose of using that very feature.  It makes me angry before I even start!  I am only here now because I have been run through the hoops trying to buy Lion and install it.  When I launched the app store, it had a lion's face I had to click on to download.  But there was no link to Buy or Download.  Eventually after many relaunches I accidentally discovered that if i clicked on £20 it changed into a green Buy - but only if you click directly on it, it you click on the down arrow it invites you to copy a link or to share it with somebody..  Then it made me log in again (what instant amnesia this site has) and I had to re-enter all my credit card info because it would not access an Australian American Express card even though it has a UK billing address.  So I went back again, and still got the Lion.  I clicked Buy several times but nothing happened.  Then out of the blue it changed to Install.  I clicked that many many many many many many times. Nothing happened whatsoever.  I am going to have to give up for now and try and get through to Apple tomorrow as they shut up shop and there is no sales or tech support.  God knows how many times they have charged my credit card for all the times I clicked Buy and nothing appeared to happen, or maybe it did happen and just doesn't tell you.
    So far tonight I've done nothing but start and restart AppStore, log in over and over, click the price>Buy and try to click install. and for all this effort so far I have got a big fat zero.
    I would have thought by now that Apple would have had some experiene in designing and delivering software over the internet, but my experience tells me that they are complete beginners whe it comes to user-friendly ecommerce.  This is some of the laziest web work I've had the misfortune to be annoyed by.
    Here's what I think should happen:
    Log in once and once only
    Click the product you want
    Click Buy (a separate button from the price tag)
    Once sale approved, click Download
    Progress bar appears

    In the Elements Organizer 13
    The key to all this is to click on/select/highlight the Album that you have created in Local Albums.
    Then make sure that the Sort By: (in the row below the highlighted "Media" header is set for Album Order.
    You should see a number at the top left of each of thumbnails.
    Then, click on the thumbnail that you want to move, hold down the click, and drag the thumbnail to the wanted new location
    in the line up of thumbnails.
    Often I had to press down hard on the drag.
    Please let us know if that worked for you.
    Also, in Edit Menu/Preferences/Keyword Tags and Albums/Enable Manual Sorting Options, I set all for manual.

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

    Thanks for your advice, I went to the apple shop today for a face to face meeting with a tech and he checked everything and could not figure out why I was having this problem so we decided to give up on that account and create a whole new one for me using a different email address.
    Now I can download apps on both my iPhone and ipad2.
    If anyone is reading this in Brisbane Australia go to the Chermside apple shop and ask for Wade. He was fantastic!
