Can't connect to the iTunes Store - Support - Apple

Best Fixes for 'Cannot Connect to iTunes Store' Errors | iPad Insight

hljboss, thanks so much. What you said to do worked for me!

I have tried everything in this post, and nothing is working for my 2 apps that are frozen in "Installing". I have had this iPad mini for les than 2 weeks and had this problem twice now. The first time I did a factory reset and got rid of everything. I am trying to avoid it this time.

This morning my husband tried to download 2 apps via WiFi at Home Depot and it is stuck again. I tried to download them again connected to the computer/iTunes and it switched to being stuck on "Installing" now. And occasionally I can hold down the installing app in "Purchases" in the App Store and it will open the app. But it still won't open clicking the icon and it still says Installing.

I'm having the same problem with one app... stuck at "installing" and none of the remedies work. I was hoping an update to the app might help... an update was just issued, but applying the update (via iTunes sync to my Mac) doesn't do anything. I have a lot of content on my iPad so I would rather not do a reset/restore. Fortunately this is a non-essential app for me, so I'm going to be patient for a few weeks and upgrade to IOS 7 to see if it handles this case better than IOS 6. If not, I'm going to open a case with Apple.

Thanks Demo. Login out, shutdown and restart, logging back in worked for me. Al the WAITING downloads are once again queued up and downloading again. Much appreciated.

It is very easy sign out you apple id reboot device long press and the x button will be visible press x button

then reboot

@Neto: thanks!! That worked! I was just about to perform a complete wipe on my phone and attempt a restore from backup.

I have the same problem with waiting APPS, but have somewhat of a solution. In my mind, this also fixes the fact that Newstand cannot be removed.

I made a folder on the home screen and called it BadAPPles. All the broke stuff goes there.

A full shutdown solved the problem for me.

Hold down power button and home button at the same time, until iPhone turns off. This is supposed to be equivalent to removing the battery, according to Verizon.

I waited a out 30 seconds, the turned iPhone back on. Apps stuck in loading cleared from screens and the updated versions were still loaded on iPhone.

For me the problem was solved by downloading any other app in the store. When I entered my iTunes password again, it automatically started to redownload the "waiting..." app.

I found the solution. You do not need to sync all of them again.

1. In your iphone, go to setting.

2. Go to general

3. Go to Usage

4. In storage, click show all apps

5. Click the waiting apps and delete them

6. Go to the App store and install them again

Good luck!

While an interesting solution, this was about 35 apps for me. I really did not want to have to make a list of the stuck apps, delete them all, and then download them again. But thanks for the suggestion.

try updateing to 7.0.3 or restart your ipad.

I'm amazed at the fact that apple requires people to go use iTunes in order to delete pending downloads. I have iOS 7 on my iphone 5 and I am completely unable to delete a pending multi-gig movie download. Pretty ridiculous. Just to show how much they care about support, you will also find it funny that if you run spell check on your posting to this community, the words iTunes, iOS, iPhone, etc... are not even in the spelling dictionary. LOL!
