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 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 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.

    Try:                           
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • 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.

  • Should data entered in apps purchased in the Apps Store sync on my iPad and iPhone?

    Should data entered in apps purchased in the Apps Store sync on my iPad and iPhone?

    Syncing between iOS devices should work automatically once you enable it for each app in its Settings. Syncing between iDevices and your desktop, at this time, is more comlicated.
