  • Why isn't the App Store and iTunes a choice for an app on my mini?

    Why isn't the App Store and iTunes a choice for an app on my mini?

    Either they've been moved to another home screen or dropped in a folder, in which case doing a search or resetting the Home Screen layout (Settings/General/Reset) should bring them up, or they've been turned off in General/Restrictions.

  • Why isn't the App Store letting me install and update apps to my iPod Touch 3 Gen.?

    Why isn't the app store letting me update or install Apps?

    Because like a computer, you always need more space that the download size takes up.  One reason is that the app needs to be expanded to be installed.

  • Why isn't the App Store working on my iPad.

    I can get into the App Store but I can't update, download or search for apps. It just has the little twirly circle icon, never asks me for my password or comes up with anything. This problem started 4-6 days ago in the middle of app downloads. I have tried numerous times to get it working again but I can't.

    Hi there crazynesswithmew,
    You may want to try force closing all open apps and resetting the device as an initial troubleshooting step. Take a look at the articles below for more information.

  • Why isn't the App Store working at all?

    Okay so after updating my iPad this morning my App Store isn't working, like AT ALL. And I have yet to update my iPhone 5 because it also will not let me use the App Store. What's up with it?

    I think you just have to keep retrying throughout the day.
    Once you get in, perhaps just update the Apps that are most important to you for now.
    The servers are still going to be very busy today.

  • Why isn't my app store on my mac working?

    Every time I try and go into my app store on my mac to update my apps, it sits there loading before a box pops up and say "App store cannot verify a secure connection with the App store. Would you like to connect anyway?" I press continue and it just sits on a black screen and I can't do anything.
    What can i do to fix it?

    This procedure is complicated, but you probably won't have to do all of it.
    Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried until the issue is resolved. Back up all data before making any changes.
    Step 1
    Check the status of the service. If it's down, wait tor it to come back up. There may be a localized outage, even if the status indicator is green.
    Step 2
    Check that the date (including the year) and time shown by your system clock are correct.
    Step 3
    Restart your router and your broadband device, if they're separate.
    Step 4
    If you connect to the Internet through an HTTPS or SOCKS proxy server, follow the instructions in this support article, or deselect the proxy entirely.
    Step 5
    Boot in safe mode and test.
    Step 6
    Make sure Parental Controls aren't active for your account.
    Step 7
    Follow the instructions in this support article to change your DNS settings. If there's no change, revert the settings.
    Step 8
    If possible, test on a different network, such as a public Wi-Fi hotspot or the cellular network of your phone.
    Step 9
    Launch the Keychain Access application. In the Keychains list, there should be items named System and System Roots. If not, select
    File ▹ Add Keychain
    from the menu bar and add the following items:
    /Library/Keychains/System.keychain
    /System/Library/Keychains/SystemRootCertificates.keychain
    From the Category list in the lower left corner of the window, select Certificates. Look carefully at the list of certificates in the right side of the window. If any of them has a a blue-and-white plus sign or a red "X" in the icon, double-click it. An inspection window will open. Click the disclosure triangle labeled Trust to disclose the trust settings for the certificate. From the menu at the top, select
    When using this certificate: Use System Defaults
    Close the inspection window. You'll be prompted for your administrator password to update the settings. Revert all the certificates with non-default trust settings. Never again change any of those settings.   
    From the menu bar, select
    Keychain Access ▹ Preferences... ▹ Certificates
    There are three menus in the window. Change the selection in the top two to Best attempt, and in the bottom one to CRL.
    Next, select the login keychain. Delete any expired or otherwise invalid certificates.
    Log out, log back in, and test.
    Step 10
    Launch the Activity Monitor application. Select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar of the Activity Monitor window, if not already selected. Enter "ocspd" (without the quotes) in the "Filter" text field. Is a process with that name listed?
    If not, back up all data, then triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
    /var/db/crls
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    Move all the files in the folder that opens to the Trash. You’ll be prompted for your administrator password. Reboot, empty the Trash, and test.
    Step 11
    If you've moved to a different country, select
    Store ▹ View My Account
    from the App Store menu bar, then click
    Change Country or Region
    and update your billing information.

  • Why isn't my App Store letting me download apps ? Every time I try to download a free app it makes me put in my password then it tells me my credit card is not working when it was just working earlier and I shouldn't need my credit card the app is free!!

    I need help!

    This same thing happend to me,  you have to make a new account and you have to chose your birthday as if your under 18 or 16,  because if you dont own a credit card,  you shouldnt be over this age,  so basictly just make a new email and appleID and when you chose your birthday,  do it under 16 years of age (or your REAL birthday) and you should have an option of clicking "none" for credit card options,  but if you want to buy something,  you will have to do the credit card stuff,  or you can just buy an apple gift card at basictly any store,  So this is how i fixed my problum,  i hope it works for you,  write back your responce of how it worked out please!

  • Why doesn't my app store & itunes work ?

    Whenever i click on it blank pages appear & it also happens when i search things up, It says it's loading but once it loads that is when there's black pages. It won't let me see the apps i need to update either. On my itunes the same thing happens i don't why. This started like a week ago. Can you guys help ?

    Seems to be an unconfirmed issue on Apple's side. I am experiencing this myself and others are reporting it here. Ride it out for now. I expect they will sort it out.

  • 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!

  • I changed my sim on my iPhone n reconfigured iMessage, it configured with my number but when i sign in with my apple id it says username/password is wrong while in all other things like FaceTime, App Store it worked with the same id and password

    i changed my sim on my iPhone n reconfigured iMessage, it configured with my number but when i sign in with my apple id it says username/password is wrong while in all other things like FaceTime, App Store it worked with the same id and password..
    can anyone help me to solve this issue

    i just opened my ipad, started my apple account/I.D. and realized I put the wrong e mail. I was having trouble correcting my I.D on the Ipad so I went to my laptop and make the proper changes/slash e mail address I wanted for my apple ID. I got back to my ipad and try to download an app I can't because I have to sign in my apple account and I can't because it still has the irrelivant I.D/email address..
    So, i did what you said.. went to setting>app store> tapped on my e mail.. it asked me to sign in (with my invalid emails address showing). I signed in with the password I had created. It said "incorrect".. I went to reset password. I reset password, tried to sign in and it says again "unvalid password".. this is getting irritating.  I have been asking and no one knows what to do.
