Purchases not showing in "purchased" section of iPad

I have a new Ipad. I've logged into my apple account and when I go to the App Store and select purchased tab, nothing is showing when I select either Ipad or Iphone(Ipod). When all is selected there is nothing showing. Howerver if I touch the screen somewhere an app will launch. So they are there bt there is no visua. I will get a list when I select 'not on this Ipad'


Even the apps I downloaded from the Ipad directly do not show on either of these tabs. I've logged out and back in again to see if that helped. No success.


Thoughts?

Same here. It started last night. It was fine, then I made a (free) purchase and now no purchases show at all on my iPad 3. They are there though since when I search for one, it does find it and I can reinstall the app from the cloud. They just are not showing as a full list anymore. My iPhone 4 is fine. I have another iPad (iPad 2) but cannot test it until Friday. Maybe something's going on with Apple's servers since I've tried logging out, then logging back in through iTunes on the iPad. I then get some strange error message & tells me I am not logged in when in reality, I did get logged in by checking through Settings/Store and checking the Apple ID. Weird stuff...

I'm having the same problem as of last night. The purchases page is blank. There are items on the page as I can tap on the page where things should be and it will open times,, but the page just shows a gray area where the purchases should be. This is only on my iPad. The purchased screen works fine on my iPhone. I'm guessing Apple needs to fix this.

As was stated in this and other threads, it seems to be an issue on Apple's end (likely server related). I don't believe there's anything you can do except wait for Apple to realize it's on their end and correct it. In the meantime, if you want to download a previous purchase, you can search for it by name from the previous purchases screen or search for it through the iTunes store.
