ipad app stuck on waiting

I downloaded an app from the App store and the icon "waiting" appeared. Shortly after I downloaded it a message popped up saying that this app is not compatible. However, instead of disappearing like it should, it stayed on my home screen as if it was waiting to be downloaded. I tried deleting it but the app would not be deleted. I tried restarting the iPad many time but it still would not download. I also tried syncing with iTunes but it is still, just no longer with the word "waiting" under it. Also, when deleting the app, it refers to it as "" rather the the name.
