Why isn't the App Store on my phone?

I bought my phone from a friend and he restarted it and then when I got it the App Store wasn't on it and neither was the calucutalor or the camera app

Ask your friend, he sold you the phone.

    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 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 the App Store ID the same as my changed ID in Itunes?  Help please.

    I have a new email address.  I've changed my email address in Itunes and it shows the new address.  When I try to get apps from the App Store it shows my old email address and won't allow me in. Why is the Apple ID in the App store still my old one when I tunes shows my new one?
    Thanks. mpar1985

  • 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 Apple store working?

    Why isn't the Apple store working? I wanted to buy a iPad but I can't because the store isn't working. When will the store start working?

    Apple is in the midst of announcing new products and they normally take the Apple Store offline while a keynote is in progress. The Apple Store will be back up when the keynote is over. Try back in about a half an hour or so.
    Regards.

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

    Why doesn't the App store recognise that I already have Facetime installed and want me to repurchase it?  I also canot upgrade from V3 to V 1.02?

    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.

  • HT5622 Why can't I sign into the App Store on my phone?

    I can't sign into the App Store on my phone? But for some reason I can still download stuff, but I have to log in every time for every little thing.

    There is no error message. I try to log in and it looks like it tries to but then it just go's back to the main screen and nothing happens. I can log in on my computer just fine, that is why I don't know what is going on.

  • I put an app onto my phone via my comp when there wasn't space on my phone originally to download it directly. Now however, everytime I visit the app store on my phone it tries to download the same app that's already there. How can I stop it doing this?

    My phone didn't have space on it when I originally tried downloading a large app (Infinity Blade), so I downloaded the app on my computer to save time and removed apps from my phone to make space for it.
    I then connected my phone to my computer and transferred the app across onto my phone and it works fine.
    However, everytime I visit the App Store on my phone it starts downloading this same app until it tells me there isn't enough space for it at which point the app goes back to its normal already downloaded self and I can carry on playing the same game.
    How can I stop it from trying to re-download everytime I visit the app store?

    If it's still trying to download the app to your phone, then it thinks the app is not on the device.
    A reset or restart would be a good starting point to clear up the attempts to redownload the app.

  • I changed the name of my apple id and now I can't use the app store on my phone correctly because it's using my apple id's old name. I signed out and in on itunes and synced my iphone. Still doesn't work. Help please?

    Settings>Store...tap the ID shown...sign out...sign back in with the ID you want to use.
    Note: Apps are forever tied to the Apple ID used to originally obtain them. They cannot be updated using any other Apple ID other than the one they were originally obtained with.

  • HT4759 I can not install app's from the app store on my phone,and when i try, i get a message tells me (cannot connect to itunes store) that happened after i updated it to "IOS6" . it's a "IPhone4 S"

    I can not install app's from the app store on my phone,and when i try, i get a message tells me (cannot connect to itunes store) that happened after i updated it to "IOS6" . it's a "IPhone4 S"

    Remember, any purchased item from the itunes store is forever associated with the Apple ID used to buy it.  So when you get prompted for an ID/password and it doesn't accept it, then you are using the wrong ID.
    Go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores, be sure it's logged into the ID you have set on the iphone (since that one seems to be connecting with the right ID).  If you've done this, then you might wait a bit to see if the "cannot connect to .. store" message has to do with internet connections.

  • 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.
