Do you have a stalled download in iTunes perhaps .... A song or podcast? If you have something in there that didn't finish downloading, that can cause problems. Look in there and check. If there is a download that stalled - finish it or delete it and then see if the apps will update.


I take it that you do not sync with iTunes because if you do - you can update the apps in there and then sync them to the iPad.
