IPhone :: Cannot Download Apps, Music Or Books From The ITunes Store?
Mar 21, 2012
Since I updated to 5.1 on my iPhone 3Gs, I keep getting problems with the updated OS. I can't download apps, music or books from the iTunes store, it's very hit and miss. It is pointless having a pin upon wake up of the phone as all you have to do to get past the pin is by swiping the camera button up to by-pass it. The battery life has dramatically dropped from lasting a couple of days with everyday use to around 9 hours. The signal from the network has dropped from 3 bars on 3G to 4 bars on GPRS, and finally apps keep crashing and exit themselves to the home screen.
I have rang my network (O2UK) and they have said that they have had serveral reports of Apple products having these bugs since the release of 5.1, and saying that nothing has changed in terms of te settings and masts near me, but they advised me to check my network settings and if they are different from what O2's website said (they were the same). So why are there so many bugs with 5.1? I can't download any apps at all and my battery is worse?

Ok so I am trying to put music on my iphone but it always say no content you can download music from the itunes store so I go to the itunes store but I still don't know how to get music on my iphone it has been like that for months now
On iphone 4 Not able to update any apps or buy iTunes since updating phone to 5.1.1. Tried doing a cold boot of the phone and resetting password but still get "unknown error" message and a prompt to cancel or retry.
I have purchased an audio book in itunes on my Mac at home. I would like to download the audio book onto my iphone and can't seem to figure it out. I have previously shared books, music, apps and movies via icloud but audio books will not work for me.
I am trying to download apps from the store and it wont let me download any app even free ones. It tells me to sign in and to check my billing information. I check it and my details are correct but it says there was a problem with the previous purchase. How do i sort this out?
I have an iphone 4s. Recently, it stopped working with the app store and itunes. When I try to download a new app or update an existing app, all I get is the message "waiting..." below the app. This will go on indefinitely. When I try to download a new song or podcast, it says it is downloading but it doesn't. I have tried signing out from my itunes account and signing back in, closing all apps in multitasking, and restarting my iphone. Nothing seems to fix the problem. I can still connect it to my Macbook and update / add apps and songs / podcasts that way, but it is inconvenent. I would rather be able to do these things as I should be able to... straight from my phone.
I'm on a jailbroken iphone 4 and I just realized I cannot download apps from App Store. What happens is when I hit install, the app store closes immediately and nothing happens. I can update my apps but I cannot download new apps. I am currently using the categories cydia app, anyone have any issues with categories and downloading apps in app store?
When I make my purchased apps with credit card, it go worst !!! Now i cant download any free or purchase apps.It require my billing information, even I enter the correct information.It wont worked on my iphone.I have tried sign out and sign in again and reset all settings.
I try to download a free game named "motoheroz" from app store with my iphone, but it doens't work properly. My phone screen is blocked with a message: "download of motoheroz will start". Several hours after the dowload doesn't start and "OK" button doesn't work. I can't download another apps and app store is blocked in this screen. How can I do to correct it?
I have an iPhone 3g with the last fw I can use: 3.1.3 and I can't download any app from the app store, once I press the button "Free" (Gratis, in my languaje) the button install disappear and I can't download nothing. I've been doing some research and it seems like this issue happened before... around dec/2011.
3 days ago, I was able to update my apps. But when I tried to download new apps, it doesn't allow me now. When i clicked on "purchase/free", it just gave me a broken "install" box. Even the screenshot of the apps is broken. I already tried the reset but still it doesn't work. Is it true that Apple has updated the app store, so the 3rd generation software isn't able to get anything from the app store anymore?
Yesterday I bought a iPhone 4s. I tried to download some apps from the App Store but when I click the free button it is not clickable. I updated my phone with the 5.1 Update so I'm not sure why it won't work.
How do I setup my son's Iphone 3gs to hit my apple itunes store acct when he needs to buy music? Right now when he is trying to purchase from Itunes it is defaulting to his apple ID which is his gmail account. I've looked through settings but when I get to where I can change it to my apple id it prompts for a new password including a number. My apple id does not have a number in it. I must be in the wrong place.
Every time I attept to download an app from itunes on my iphone it refuses to take the password and forces me to reset a new one. Then it will not accept the new one.Â
i am unable to download to apps from iphone. i tried it on wifi but the app got stuck on waiting only. then tried it 3g services as well but was unable to download it from that as well.
My updates will not update and I cannot even download free apps as the app store will not allow me to because it says there is no money in my account when i know there is what can i do about this problem
There appears to be a issue again using iOS 3.1.3 which I have on my original 2G Iphone trying to download new apps from the Appstore.
Just to be clear, iOS 3.1.3 is the latest version that can be installed and be supported on the original Iphone 2G (can't update the iOS to a later version).
If you try to download/install a new app from the App Store using iOS 3.1.3 and click on the install button, it turns green and does not do anything. If you have an existing app using iOS 3.13 and there is a update for the app, then the install might download. This isn't a problem with the device needing to be restored, it is a problem with a some change Apple did on their end to the AppStore thats not compatible with iOS3.1.3.
This happened before back in Dec 2011 and it took a few weeks to get Apple to admitt it was their problem and install a fix at their end for the App Store for iOS 3.13. The Apple support people kept on telling everyone to try to restore your device which was a waste of time.
Info: iOS 3.1.3, Appstore downloads using iOS 3.1.3
