Ruchir C. I have been an Apple user for over seven years now. In my free time, I like to watch stand up comedy videos, tech documentaries, news debates, and political speeches. I have posted this boilerplate of suggestions many times in the past. Some of these suggestions have worked for others, give them a try and perhaps one will work for you.
Tap the 'waiting' icon and see if you can pause it. If it does pause, then tap it again and see if it will resume. If that works, repeat the same steps for each 'waiting' icon. Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first.
Tap your ID and sign out. Check the Internet connection status. When the iPad cannot access the Internet , the App Store cannot perform the task of downloading the application. Turn it off and then on again. Then repeat the previous operation to close it. Upgrade iOS version. Regularly updating iOS helps to fix some errors. Fix possible server failure. This is another trick where you clear your App Store Cache, the same way you do to your apps.
In some situations, the cache can restrict you from downloading or updating your apps. To empty the cache, go through the given steps:. If the application is unable to get updated on its own on the device, then you can alternatively make use of iTunes to do this.
To understand this, follow the steps provided below:. If you are still unable to install the updates, then there are some more serious steps that you need to take. You can try resetting all your iPhone settings. This will not remove any data or files. It just brings back the original settings. If you have reached here, we assume the above steps might not have worked for you, so try this last step and factory reset your iPhone which seems to be the last resort now.
Please be informed that all the apps, pictures, and everything will be deleted in this case. Refer to the illustration below to see how it is done in settings. Update Your Phone If an update to iOS is available from your carrier, try upgrading your iPhone, as the problem may be due to a bug in your current OS.
