Why won't certain apps connect?

Hey everyone,
I am unable to install Java on OSX 10.7. I launch the java app under utilities and try to install but it says that there is no connection to the internet and opens network diagnostics. Ichat has the same problem. Safari and most other apps work fine. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Jesse

Some apps that are connected to country specific services only work in those countries. For example, I can't use Hulu+ when I'm in Canada. Other services are more global. You'll probably want to check out the developer's sites for the apps that aren't working.

  • Why won't Mail.app connect to iCloud mail?

    I'm having a problem getting Mail app to connect to iCloud, iOS and iCloud web mail seem to be working fine with my @me.com/@iCloud.com address but Mail app on my mac is showing wh I try to add my account:
    The iCloud IMAP server “p03-imap.mail.me.com” is not responding. Try checking the network connection, and that the server name is correct. Otherwise, the server might be temporarily unavailable. If you continue, you might not be able to receive messages.
    Gmail has/is connected fine, why not iCloud?
    Thanks!

    My internet connection is fine, but it won't let me change my incoming mail server to the icloud address. What do I do?
    When you set up an iCloud account, it should set the correct incoming and outgoing mail servers. Why do you wish to change the servers? What are they showing that you think is not correct?

  • Why won't my apps connect to the iTunes Store?

    I can't search for specific apps now.  I can only browse the advertised ones.  Why am I getting an error message saying "CANNOT CONNECT TO iTUNES STORE"

    There appears to be an issue going on with the App Store right now.
    I can access the store but cannot do a search without first selecting one app and have it pop up in the window, then enter my app into the search field and then struggle through a couple of more steps until apps appear in the list based on the "keyword" in the search bar, and then I can tap on one of those from there.
    Something is wrong on Apple's end is my belief.

    Hello Briana,
    If you are stuck with trying to get the apps to update, check out the troubleshooting steps in the following article. I would also try and power off the iPod Touch and turn it back on.

  • TS1702 Why won't my apps install on my ipad? it keeps waiting. Please help

    Why won't my apps install on my iPad, it just keeps waiting. Please help.
    Thanks.

    These are all steps that have worked for some other users in the past. They may not work for you, but they are worth a try.
    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
    You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.

  • HT204380 Why won't my FaceTime connect with others?

    Why won't my FaceTime connect with others?

    Ok, so sometimes apple's servers may crash, temporarily. Just check the following site: http://www.apple.com/uk/support/systemstatus/
    and it will notify you of any crashes. The link above is for the UK. Change to adapt to your country if you are outside of the UK. If your problem isn't listed I am sure it will be resolved within 24 hours. If this problem persists best thing is to contact apple.
    Hope this helped :)

  • HT201398 Why won't podcast app work on iPhone 5 after ios 8.1.3 update?

    Why won't podcast app work on iPhone 5 after ios 8.1.3 update?
    I've restarted the phone and itunes several times, have uninstalled and reinstalled the app on the phone and itunes separately, and it still just shows 'Installing" under the greyed out app.

    I have the same problem with an iPhone 5s. All podcast fail to work on the phone since updating to iOS 8.1.3. What is going on? Is Apple taking this problem serious?

    Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

  • Why won't my apps show on my main screens? The only way I can access them is by going back to the App Store and clicking open.

    Why won't my apps show on my main screens? The only way I can access them is by going back to the App Store and clicking open.

    So there are no apps at all on your home screens? Try a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot. If you don't see anything after that, take a look at all of your home screens and folders to see if something is hidden. It that doesn't work, you can go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.

    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.
