Cannot download apps at this time

Hi I have noticed that recently when I either download an app or update a certain app I get a pop up on the screen that says:


Unable to purchase


"Amazon mobile"and 5 other items

Could not be purchased at this time

Please try again later.





Now it's been saying this for a few weeks now, but the thing is, I'm not even trying to update my amazon mobile app, and I have no clue what the othe 5 are. I have tried syncing and restarting but nothing helps. My guess is that it began when I tried to probably install a bunch of updates at once at one point. There might have been a problem and they were not available. But why is it still showing me this. I should also add that amazon mobile is not in my current list of apps that have updates. Any ideas would be great, it's quite annoying.

iPad 2, iOS 4.3.3

Go to Settings, Store, Apple ID, and Sign out.


Now do a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank then power ON again in the normal way.] It is 'appsolutely' safe!


Sign back in again and see what happens.
