Curiouser and curiouser! I rebooted my router and it made no difference. I then logged out of my Apple ID and logged back in again and the problem is partially but not completely resolved. When I open the App Store app, it still says that it cannot connect to the App Store. However, if I...

I’m in “lockdown” and C-19 Shieldimg at the moment so haven’t been able to try another network yet but shall do so as soon as I can. i have, however, thethered my iPad to my iPhone and thus used my mobile network and it still won’t connect.

I have an iPhone SE 2020, a 2017 iMac and an iPad Pro, all of which have the latest versions of OS including Big Sur. The iPhone and iMac seem to be behaving “normally” and the iPad is behaving “normally” except for accessing the App Store. It is clearly making contact because the icon badge...

Great, thanks. Holding down the power button worked! Nothing in the somewhat short instructions mentioned that! I didn’t need to do that with the iMac but I’m now up and running. Thanks again! :-)

I have recently bought a set of JBL TUNE 600BTNC noise cancelling headphones and they paired immediately with my 2017 iMac18,3 running under macOS Catalina v10.15.3 (19D76). However, my 10.5" iPad Pro Model MPME2B/A running under iOS 13.3.1 cannot "see" the cans even when they are placed right...

Many thanks - there's some twisted logic in hiding it there! I wouldn't have connected Screen Time (something which is of absolutely no interest to me - I'm no fan of Dark Mode either for that matte, but I digress) with protecting my iPad from roaming Grandchildren's' enquiring little fingers...

In previous iOS versions, there has been a facility to prevent apps being deleted without entering the passcode. I used this, and the ability to prevent in-app purchases, to prevent my inquisitive Grandchildren from doing things that they oughtn't! Now that I am on iOS.13.n, last night I...

OK, I have no idea why, but if in the App Store app I click Update All it asks for my password. if I click each individual app's Update button then it doesn't. Also, if I have, in Settings > iTunes & App store > Automatic Downloads > App Updates set to On, I am periodically and randomly asked...

OK, thanks. A browse around reddit reveals a couple of other lost souls who experience the same thing and one who has the same workround (great minds think alike :)) and another says that they have contacted Apple who recommend changing the Apple ID password. I’ll wait until they report back...

Hi, twerppoet, thanks for your suggestion. I tried that and alas it didn’t work. I have now updated to iOS 13.1.2 and the problem persists. I discovered that if (under 13.1.2 at least, I hadn’t discovered this before uograding) I hit “Update” alongside each individual app I am not asked for...

Thanks, one and all. The problem exists across all devices and I have managed to get an explanation from TuneIn Support which I copy, italicised, at the end of this thread. It is indeed a form of licencing problem and, based upon TuneIn’s reply, I have a work round: use a VPN and jump to...

Thanks, LannyC. I’ve looked in there and nothing seems, to me at least, to be amiss and as far as I can tell from Settings, I should be able to update existing apps by touch and should not need to type in the code. However, I have just upgraded to 13.1.1 and the “problem” persists! If I...

I am UK based and have used TuneIn Radio Pro extensively to listen to radio from around the world including waking up most days, via the alarm feature, to the UK’s BBC Radio 4. This morning, I was greeted by the audio message that “This station is not available in your country” or words to that...

i just know that I’m going to look utterly stupid when I see the answer, but hey ho! I have two iPads running the latest iOS.12 and on one I can update apps via the App Store just by hitting Update or Update All yet on the other I always have to enter my App Store password. We are talking...

Thanks, brixtonboy. I shall experiment, but it seems bizarre to me that the assembled geeks and dweebs at Apple think that this is a useful feature on a numeric keypad but not on an alpha keypad. Either it is useful (and I personally think it to be a right royal pain in the fundament) or it...
