    Try this...

    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

    Nobody here will have any information about future updates since the community is only made up of users like you or I. Anything else is mere speculation and speculation is not permitted here under the Terms of Use for these communities.

    Why can I not download apps onto my Macbook. The only apps that come up are ipad & iphone apps.

    If you are searching within iTunes, all the Apps are for iDevices. To find Apps for the MacBook, you will need to search using the Mac App Store.

    Why can't I download apps I have to pay for on to my new iPad Mini. I have had an Apple id for my iPhone for years and have downloaded app to it, no problems. When I try to download apps to my new iPad Mini, it tells me my billing info has to be confirmed. After confirming with same info that is already there it tells me to contact support, no help up to this point.

    Could the credit card be expired?
    Beyond that, what you need to do is contact iTunes support, they can tell you exactly what is wrong, none of us here can do that.
    In the lower right corner of this page is a 'contact us' link. Click on that and you'll see a page full of info and links, one of which is iTunes support.

  • Why can't I download books onto my phone but I can onto my computer I'm using overdrive for my phone

    Why can't I download books onto my phone but I can onto my computer I'm using overdrive for my phone. Please help thanks

    By 'not accept' you mean ... ? Are you getting any error messages ?
    For a credit card to have a chance of being accepted it needs to be registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, and have been issued by a bank in the country where you and your iTunes account are based.

  • My Mavericks upgrade crashed my hard drive and I had to reinstall Mountain Lion.  Now I cannot get any of the apps that I purchased to download.  The icons on the launchpad just say "waiting" no matter what I try.

    My Mavericks upgrade crashed my hard drive and I had to reinstall Mountain Lion.  Now I cannot get any of the apps that I purchased to download.  The icons on the launchpad just say "waiting" no matter what I try.  My app store ID is fine.  What do I do?

    Are you now using a different username from the one you used prior to migrating? If so that is the reason for the problem. You might, then, give this a try:
    To fix Home folder permissions
    Open the Terminal application in the Utilities folder.  At the command line prompt enter or paste the following command line:
    sudo chown -R `id -un`:`id -gn` ~
    Press RETURN.  You will be prompted to enter your admin password which will not be echoed.

    WWhy can't I download apps that family member bought on her iPad after we downloaded ios8 and  became family members I'm able to download mine onto her iPad but I can't load hers onto mine

    I have captured the install log.  Right now I don't have the Sever.app and related files in the system.  But log shows the server is running or installed today.  I have seen MiniLauncher tag (don't know what it is).  And if the server is running, it is not appearing in the Activity log.

  • Why can't I download apps onto my iPad?

    I have tried to download apps onto my iPad but it won't allow my to enter my password so I cannot download any apps can anybody help?

    Hi Littlexjess,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  I would try restarting and resetting your iPad as a good initial troubleshooting step:
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

    If this does not help, please reply with any additional information such as exact error messages or strange behavior you see.
    Cheers,

  • Why can't I download app in my iPad and iPhone today???

    I can't download any update or new app today. What is going on!!! Both my iPad and iPhone  with the same user ID.

    Nobody here could possibly know why you can't download apps today. I can tell you that there are no reported issues with any of Apple Services in the U.S. which you can see here.

    You will certainly have to provide some more information if you need help, like what exactly is happening?

  • Why can't i download apps on my ipod?

    I can't download apps anymore on my ipod. I dont know why. can you please help!!!!

    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 the screen blacks out or 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.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow 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.
    There's more to try but let's go a bit at a time.

  • Why can't I download apps on my iPhone

    I Put my account on my mom iPhone and now I can't download apps on my iPhone why ? What can I do so I can fix things

    Hi Julua,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!  To troubleshoot this issue, I would first suggest you sign out of the iTunes Store on your iPhone, then quit all open apps and restart the iPhone.  Log back into the iTunes Store with your Apple ID and password and then attempt to download a free app.  The following articles will provide more detailed information:
    iOS: Sign in with a different Apple ID in the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1311?viewlocale=en_US
    Tap Settings > iTunes & App Stores.
    Tap your Apple ID.
    Tap Sign Out.
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Can't connect to the iTunes Store

    I hope this information helps ....

  • Why can i not download apps from australia

    I live in the UK and wish to download apps from Australia like TENplay but unable to, why is that and when will apple allow us to do so?

    It's not Apple's choice. All content is licensed by the rights-holders to Apple to sell on a country-by-country basis, each country therefore has to have its own store and you have to be in a country to use its store. You can try requesting that the app be added to the UK store, but unless the rights-holder agrees to it then Apple can't sell it here : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

  • Why can't I download apps over 100mb on 3G?

    I have an all-you-can-eat data plan,
    yet AppStore won't let me download apps over a certain size!!
    I don't have wifi though!
    How can I change this to allow me to download apps any size?

    Sorry, but you cannot change it.  The store has a hard limit on the maximum size of what it will allow to be downloaded over any cellular data connection.  The only solution at this time is to find a wifi node or download in iTunes on your computer via a wired ISP connection.
    You can submit feedback to Apple to let them know you would like this changed
