Error 1004 iOS 4.3.3 downloading App Store

I just noticed the 1004 error today. I reset my iPad and then synced it to iTunes and the issue is gone. I am using os version 4.3.5. Hope it works for you as well.

I did this:

General > Reset > Reset Network Settings

It solved the problem right away and I was able to update my apps with no problem.

If you're jailbroken and you have the User Agent Faker installed, then look no further, a recent update to it causes this.

Just uninstall it for now, reboot and it should work. I also had to sign out of my App Store account, reboot and sign back in, and voilà... I'm back on track.

I have spent about 8 hours since yesterday trying everything I could find, but hadn't come across the User Agent Faker problem until now. I was almost ready to renounce technology and move to Alaska.

If this still doesn't work, try all the other suggestions such as clearing cache, cookies and history from Safari and making sure your credit card info in the App Store is up to date.

Thanks salavma. Your solution worked for me when the others failed. Superb finding.

after like 5+ hours of research,googled,you name it,i came across your post and yeap that was my issue,delided user agent faker and it worked,thanks.

Salavma, you are a genius. I spent a whole day trying to work through this issue. I dreaded starting over because my iPhone 4 has over 750 apps on it organized in 40 folders. I have man years involved organizing this iPhone.

With so many updates due to the new iOS 5 there were so many possible updates which could have been responsible for this problem. "We" are all in your debt. Thank you.

Echoing the comments above, many, many thanks Salavma.

I've wasted a day trying to sort this out; disabling User Agent Faker fixed it in a minute.

FWIW this also solved the issue I was having with the Instapaper App refusing to connect ("recieved an unexpected result", or similar).

Bizarely, User Agent Faker was switched off so I never even considered the possibility of that being the culprit.

Thank you very much, all the other solutions failed, but when I deleted User Agent Faker and test again, I was able to download updates !

Thanks salavma. Wasted hours on it. User Agent Faker also blocked my Read It Later app.

great finding, this got me out!

Thanks salavma!!! finally omeone found the real culprit. Thanks once again!

btw, there is an update availale which fixes the issue.

thanks for the help., it solved my problem by just resetting the settings 😍

Hi,

I had the same problem... and I only went to Settings - Store -Sign out of Apple store and then sign in again.

It works!!!

Thanks

You're the man!!!!! Bro! You solved my problem, anyone who still bother by the error 1004, just do what he said!

I'm running 4.3.5 on my iPhone 3GS and did the following. You need to logout/login from your Apple store. To do so, go to General->Settings, click on your Apple ID, sign out, then sign in but enterin your Apple email and password. Bingo..............

Go to the App store and update/install waiting applications.

No need to restart settings whatsoever.

Good luck
