App Store updates blank

now it worked

Hey, Did you guys do anything to get it to work or did it just start working on it's own?

My two just started working... as they are meant to.

Hooray hooray, finally working today. Apple issue, I did nothing.

Fixed here, bloody mealy Apple

This is obviously a ubiquitous problem. I've tried every trick mentioned with no resolution.

Everyone that's posting here should make sure to send feedback directly to Apple since it's believed that Apple does not always, or regularly, monitor these forums. http://www.apple.com/feedback/.

In the meantime, you can update apps individually by going through the alphabet on the PURCHASED tab in the App Store and finding the apps that have an UPDATE button next to it.

Woke up this morning and it was fixed! I followed every suggestion on here to no avail. It must be coincidence that some suggestions worked and others don't. Apple came through and fixed on their end THANKS!

Mine as well is fixed and so is my wife's iPad. Apple must have made some changes on their servers. All is well that ends well; however, I wish we knew early on that Apple had acknowledged the problem and was working on it.

I got fed up with it last night so I sent a Tweet to AppleApps and AppleTweets with the link to here of (at the time 21pages of same complaint), with a screenshot of what the updates page looked like (blank), and I added CNET on the tweet recipient so that Apple knew the "press" had a hold of the unfixed issue too now :) Ta-da! Magically a few hours later it was fixed! I'd like to say I had "some" assistance in the speed in which it was fixed!? I know now that I will use that method again (Apple Twitter & add CNET Twitter too) much sooner than the 5 days we dealt with it lol.

This is what I sent them.....plus the screenshot of the blank updates page :)

@AppStore @appletweets @CNET 21 pg of complaints: Red 2 means apps need updates.Click "updates"-nothing! It's blank! https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5194126?start=0&tstart=0

@AppStore @appletweets @CNET Blank update apps screen on iPad only.....ALL iPad editions from iPad 2- iPad mini since last week! Fix plz!

My iPad and 8 iPads for my team at work all started working today as well...back to normal. I didn't do anything, so must have been a server-side problem. Now on to solving world hunger.

My only succesfull Solution: throw away all connection both wifi and 3G by "forgetting". Rebuild your wifi and or 3G connection. Good luck with this all.

My App Store updates is working now. Didn't do anything. I guess it must have been the server side.

Apple rep sent this & it helped.

1. Close All Apps on iPad: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137

2. Sign out of iTunes & App Stores: Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Tap AppleID > Sign out

3. Reset All Settings: Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings

4. Reboot iPad

5. Sign back into iTunes and App Stores: Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Sign In with AppleID

Try restarting your device by following these steps:

1) Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.

2) Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.

Mine just started working, also. Have not done anything to fix it. The update was there, and the page wasn't blank. After I installed the update I got the message all my apps are up to date. FINALLY! I suppose we will never know what the fix was or why it broke.
