It says the terms have service have updated when trying to download apps but then when trying to open the iStore to accept it crashes and says there is an issue.

My problem is on my iPhone. I am fully connected to the Internet, my date and time are fine, and my other Apple ID requests work with other places.

My issues is the App Store. I had changed my primary email a couple of hours ago. It worked when I relogged into Apple and the App Store. I updated my itunes and iphone 6. Now the itunes cant detect my device and I have tried restarting both laptop and phones. Are you referring to the WiFi sync? If so, you sometimes need to plug your iPhone into your computer using the USB cable to get the sync working again, after certain iOS upgrades.

I just updated to iOS I cannot download any apps with this problem. Can you help? Hey, i did a soft reset by pressing the home and sleep key as you told and it worked like a charm!! The reset fixes a lot of problems. Whenever I have a problem with any iOS device, I reset it. I never reboot my Mac.

I updated to IOS I contacted Apple and worked with two different support people for hours on two different occasions. She said she had same model ipad and was having same issue!

I tried everything they have suggested… over and over again. Any suggestions? I used to upgrade the day they were released. Now I wait a few months. They may have suggested this, but I would try resetting the device.

Your device will start back up after a few minutes. Another thing to try — sign out and back in to the iTunes Store. You can sign back in from there, or when your device needs your Apple ID.

Since your WiFi network seems to be an issue, you could try forgetting the WiFi network and then signing in again. Tap on the forget network button and then sign in again with the WiFi password.

Thank you for your reply and suggestions!

I have tried all those things you suggested multiple times. Nothing works! Using a different wifi source, I was able to access the Apple site and verify my Apple id. There are a few things that keep me with Apple products — high quality hardware, excellent multimedia creation capabilities peerless on mobile devices , and unfortunately ecosystem lock-in hundreds of dollars of iTunes movies, TV shows and apps.

That said, their services are abysmal. Unfortunately, there are no third-party alternatives. Your devices are hobbled without the Apple ID authentication working. They really need to step it up. Google and Amazon are flawless when it comes to server-side technology and data center operations. An iPhone is enough iOS for me. Unfortunately, Apple has really gotten into the business of hobbling older devices. My old iPhone 4, which I still keep around, is actually still quite usable because they cut it off from iOS updates.

Now they are tricking users into updating older devices, but the updates render them useless. The Apple I loved headed by Steve Jobs had people buying devices because they were great.

Now they seem to be tricking people into upgrading devices, instead of having them do it out of brand loyalty and respect. Could you please help? Thank you!

Finally I was so fed up and I reset all the settings, after which I was able to login. And my lovely iPhone tells me to connect with iTunes. How can I fix this problem? Please help me. The good news is that Apple will fix these problems. I really wish Apple would allow it, even if it meant starting with a clean slate. My hunch is they do it so they can brag about how many people upgraded to the new version of iOS.

I guess there are some edge cases. If someone upgraded to iOS 10, purchased an app that required iOS 10 and then downgraded, they could no longer use the app. They could issue a refund. Apple likes to keep things simple, however. Hang in there. It will get better. I used to upgrade to the new version of iOS the day it launched. Now I wait weeks or even months.

I get it, millennials love iPhones tattoos and stretched earlobes and Apple caters to them. Other operating systems… Well, you have to wonder how they come up with their cockamamie features.

AirDrop is so much better, but their competitor used it as a selling point. Their competitor also tried to compete on battery life, to disastrous results. Now there are reports another model in their smartphone lineup is having the same problem. I am unable to open or download updates to my apps. My iTunes account email address is associated with an old email address.

I see your dilemma. I say yes every time but nothing happens after that. Yet in diagnostics it recognizes that I have an account, serial, phone, etc. I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes. Yet I can go anywhere else I want on the internet, including Apple sites.

Host file: check. Services: check. And so on. There should be no reason for this. It worked about a year ago then stopped working and I have given up on Apple except using the phone for texts and emails. Verizon will back up most everything but not messages. I want to scream. Or go to Android. I have spent literally all day on this. Just a thought — can you verify that the USB port and cable are working properly?

I was ripping my hair out trying to update a different device not Apple and it ended up being the USB port. One last suggestion — try doing a reset. When iOS comes back up, try plugging it into your computer. So my iPhone 6 says I have a pending update to iOS Help please its driving me nuts. Step 3. Step 4. Check that the apple. Step 5.
