    Need help with frozen updates.

    Hello, everyone. I'm new to these forums and already need some help.

    Yesterday my ipad found an update for a few of my apps. Upon trying to install them, an error occured with the first program, preventing it from installing the update. As a result it and every other program slated for an update is stuck with "waiting" and a loading bar underneath them, rendering them unuseable, and they cannot be deleted. Any new programs that try to update succumb to the same fate.

    I was wondering if anyone has run into this problem, and if so, does anyone know of a fix for this?

    I have tried reinstalling the affected programs, but it won't allow that to happen.

    Any help is appreciated.

    Hold the home button and the sleep/wake button at the same time until the iPad reboots.

    This doesn't work for me. The apps are still 'waiting' when it reboots.

    Log int iTunes. Check for and complete any pending downloads whether they be apps, podcasts, etc. and see if wait state has changed.
    Background apps are hiding for good reason. Seek them out, close them. The world will be a better place.
