Angry Birds HD app won't download

I am using an iPad mini with Retina display. A few hours ago, I purchased the Angry Birds HD app from the App Store, because I enjoyed the free version and wanted to buy the full version, but the app is refusing to download. The message I get is: "Unable to download app. "Angry Birds HD" could not be downloaded at this time."


Trust me, NOTHING is working. I have tried the following after reading this website:


-Turning the iPad off, then turning it on again.

-Restarting the iPad by using the sleep and home buttons.

-Signing out of my Apple account, and signing in again.

-Turning off Wi-Fi and then turning it on again.

-Turning Airplane Mode on and off.

-Tapping the app rapidly.

-Setting the date forwards a year after turning off the Automatic Date and Time feature, the setting it back to normal.

-Deleting the app from the home screen and adding it back.

-Plugging the iPad into my computer.

-Downloading a free app.


None of these work. I'm completely lost. It just will not download, end of story, and I have no idea why. If anyone can help me, I'll be really thankful.

I'm sorry, but as detailed as your post is, I am still unclear on one thing,


Did you try downloading the app in iTunes on your computer and then sync it to the iPad? You said that you plugged the iPad into the computer and I have no idea why you would do that unless you were trying to sync the app after downloading it in iTunes.

Trust me, I know what the App Store is. Do you understand what I am asking you?


Do you realize that you can download apps in iTunes on your computer and sync them to the iPad? That's a feature of iTunes. If you weren't trying to sync the app to the iPad from your iTunes library, what did you expect to accomplish by plugging the iPad into your computer?
