Just recently I realized that my Iphone 5 will not update or download new apps. I have tried reseting my password, reseting my phone, plugging it in my computer, and restored it from the computer. All it does is ask for my password and that's it just never downloads. I don't know what to do. It does this for the updates as well just asks for the password and then nothing happens.
iPhone 5, iOS 7.0.4
I have the same problem with a new 5S. Shows I have Apps to update, click on update and it asks for password to account, accepts password, looks like it starts to update, and then the update button pops back up again....no update on phone! I've repeated this cycle a dozen times.
ARe you using the same apple id? You might have used a different apple id in some of your download
