The update server is down; try this temporary workaround

Why my iPad can't open app update (I open I see White scene)

Why my iPad can't open app update (can open App Store and I go to update I see White scene)

It seems Apple is having some issues at their end. There have been hundreds of posts on the forum with the same problem.

I am running snow leopard 10.6.1 on my mac, why doesn't running "software update" offer to load 10.6.8?

Please take a screenshot of the following:
Go to the Apple menu which appears in the upper left of the screen, then click About this Mac. Screenshot the window that pops up.
Also under the Apple menu, run Software Update. After it checks for updates, screenshot the window of available updates.

Why won't my apps update - I have 7 updates waiting to go and when you click on any of the apps, they say installing but have never finished?

Why won't my apps update on my ipad? I have 7 updates waiting to go and when I click on them they all say they are installing but they have never completed their installation? Please help

Try resetting ...
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 doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings.
You won't lose any data as a result of a reset.

Why doesn't the App store recognise that I already have Facetime installed and want me to repurchase it?

For some reason the Apple servers are having an issue retaining the bank card's CVV code (three digit security code) in the payment method area. Every time I run into an issue, whether in the iTunes Store or the Mac App Store, when I check my account info the CVV code has been missing every time!
Try resolving the problem from iTunes, you have more access to your account details in iTunes. Sometimes it seems that when there is a problem with incorrect or incomplete information regarding your method of payment the Mac App Store's warnings get confusing.
Open iTunes, enter the iTunes Store, then log in and review your account information. Make sure that the billing address is correct and that if needed, the CVV code, the three digit security code from your bank card, is correct. On your way out reset the notifications.

I can't update apps on my IPhone because my e-mail address is different from the one that shows up on my apps update screen

I can no longer update my apps on my IPhone 4 because I have a new e-mail account. When I try to update with my Apple ID the e-mail that shows up on the screen is my old e-mail address and since I once shared that with another person I no longer know the Apple ID for that particular e-mail.
How do I change the old e-mail address and keep it from showing up on my apps update screen? I have deleted the old e-mail account from my phone.
Thank you

I have Lion on my laptop and I want to back up my calendar TO my iphone. Not the reverse. iCloud only goes from iphone to iCloud to mac not the other way. Also, why doesn't "sync" mean update most recent changes across all devices?

I have Lion on my laptop and I want to back up my calendar TO my iphone. Not the reverse. iCloud only goes from iphone to iCloud to mac not the other way. Also, why doesn't "sync" mean update most recent changes across all devices? I thought that was the point of iCloud. Any suggestions since iCloud doesn't seem to work?

It's a work computer so I wanted to save them to my iTunes so I can access from another computer. Should I go to a home computer and just Import for best results? If so how do I do this? Also, why would I be synched with another library and how do I find out what this is? Very new/green user here

HT2471 why won't my app store applications open with click on category

why won't my app store applications open with click on category

There has been a problem with the Catgegory section at the App Store which has been reported to Apple.
Hopefully the issue will be rectified soon.

Why doesn't my apps show up in iTunes?

Why doesn't my apps show up in iTunes? I'm on iTunes 11.1.2.31 using an iPad mini on the latest IOS 7.0.3. Could it be that I'm on a new computer and have some settings messed up? See enclosed screenshot. It can obviously detect the number of apps (44), but why aren't they listed in the apps section?

Do you mean on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes ? If yes then make sure that Apps is ticked on the General tab in Edit > Preferences

App update screen is blank even though it reports that updates are available

Unable to retrieve updates on applications due to blank screen. Shutdown rebooted with no resolution.

If you are getting the blank app update screen, many people are having this problem over the last couple of days.
According to Fly150 in another discussion, this will work.
If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
1. Go to App Store
2. Select Purchased
3. Select All
4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
5. Select update on the Apps
This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store. Apple needs to fix this. It is a workaround only until then.

Why doesn't my App store work after upgrading to 6.0

IPad 2 wifi
Just got it back from the shop and they did a reset. When I was updating the IPad so it had the apps I wanted, one of the apps stated I had to have 6.0. I thought why not. Since the update, I have not been able to see my list of programs in the App Store under purchased. It cycles for 5 minutes and then shuts down the App prog. Took it in to the Apple store and they did all sorts of things to it (mostly through information provided through the communities, Not Apple) and said I had to restore it again. Wipe and restore it and now it has no Apps other than the original and my list of downloaded programs are still inaccessible. All other functions of the App Store program worked.
Just as a funny FYI, I downloaded the updated 10.7 ITunes to my laptop and it doesn't have access to my account either. Just cycles and says the web site cannot be found. Have another computer with 10.6 and the list works fine.
So now in order to find out what I had on my IPad, I have to either wait for an update to unscrew this mess, or downgrade to 5.1.1 (which isn't available through apple), or go through a list of 4000+ apps and games and hope that I can find the ones that I had before.
I am used to this kind of crap through a PC based system so I learned to make backups. I guess I need to start learning if apple has a way to do that now because they are as screwed up as PC's.

I would suggest deleting the Safari Preference Files and Caches.
To do this:
Go to Apple Menu Bar> Go> Library. (You must hold the option key to have the Library option be shown in the menu).
Then go to the Caches folder and look for a folder that says "com.apple.safari" or something similar. Drag that folder to the Trash.
After that, go to the Preferences folder in the Library and look for a file called "Safari.plist" or something similar. Again, drag that file to the Trash.
Close the Finder window and relauch Safari.
Hope this helps!

Why did my available app update disappear from the app store

A few weeks ago, I had an update available for one of my iphone apps that I chose not to download since it was said to have bugs. As a result, I had an outstanding badge app icon. Just today I realized that the alert was missing. At first I thought I might have accidentally updated the app when I synced my phone last, but when I search for the app in the app store, it still gives me the option to update (I've included a screen shot below). It just no longer shows an available update under the update tab (see second screen shot) It's not a huge deal at the moment since I don't want to install this update, but I'm afraid the problem might continue with future updates I want to install. Any ideas? I restored my phone from an icloud backup a few days ago, but once the restore was complete, the update alert still showed correctly, so I don't think that's the problem.

It's good to know I'm not the only one with this problem. I had noticed the issue with my downloaded apps displaying the price, but I thought maybe it's always been that way since I never install apps through iTunes on my computer, just my phone. My husband's computer is doing the same thing, but he didn't have any outstanding updates on his phone, so I'm not sure whether his phone is having the same issue. My guess is that if other people are having this problem, they don't have any outstanding updates, so they aren't aware of it. I know many people who make a habit of not updating apps have jailbroken devices and can install an app that hides the badge app icon. I guess for now we need to wait it out and see if the problem fixes itself. It's still annoying though.
P.S.- I just noticed that on my phone if I search for a previously installed app, it just shows the price instead of giving me the option to "Install". I can reinstall it by brining it up in the list of purchased apps, so it's just when searching for the app. Also if I search for a currently installed app, it says "open" instead of showing the price, so it's only with previously intalled apps. Whatever the issue, I hope it's fixed soon.

Why doesn't the App Store prompt for older versions on first download?

I thought Apple user interfaces were supposed to be slick. Here's what I have to do to install an app. I've inherited a first generation iPad from a friend. The iPad was fully erased and set back to factory defaults before I got it. I have created my Apple ID and started customising the machine to suit me. The machine is running the very latest version of IOS it is capable of supporting 5.1.1. So I gaily visit the app store and start trying to install a few apps I like. Of course today 90% of the apps in the store are designed for IOS 6 or later and simply refuse to install at all. So here is the rather less than slick workaround I have to do.
First I have to put the iPad away and go to my Windows 8.1 Desktop computer running iTunes. I log in using my Apple ID, visit the App Store, pick the apps I want and download a few that I'd like to my computer. I then switch back to using the iPad. Now I see the apps I've downloaded to the computer attempting to install themselves on the iPad. If I've downloaded more than one app. This fails for all the apps. I have to wait for all the apps to fail, then delete them from the iPad and then visit the App Store on the iPad and navigate to Purchased Apps section. Now I can see my apps waiting and can attempt to install them one at a time. If I do this then, each app attempts to install singly, fails, and then I am gracefully asked if I'd like to download an older version of the app. If I do that the download and install works - hooray! I then repeat this process for the remaining apps. Next time I need to install any apps I have to repeat the whole process. It's not what I'd call slick.
Why on earth doesn't the App Store simply prompt for an older version of the app when I first want to install it?
Why do I have to do the rigmarole of switching to my PC, downloading there, and then switching back to the iPad again just to force the "Would you like to download an older version of the App" prompt to appear?
I'm not impressed so far.

No one here can speak for Apple since we are all just users like you. Perhaps the answer is as simple as this. This feature just rolled out recently. Perhaps Apple thought it was important enough to make it available before they had built out the whole solution.
Just a thought.
