Hi
Everytime I download an app through AppStore on my iPhone whether it is an app or an update I get an error saying it cannot be downloaded.
Here is an example:

I have to go on my PC and download it by clicking on my account and it has 1 download waiting which would be the app I was trying to get on my phine.
Why is this happening?
Please help
Thanks

Same thing happens to me. Very frustrating!! When Im on my mac and try download it like the error says....well it never works for me. I've always had to delete the app and re-install it. My other issue is that some of my apps that I've downloaded via my phone are not showing up in my iTunes apps. And yes I've done the "check for purchases".

I always download my apps or updates on my pc. Never had much luck doing it on the phone.

it's noted several times to purchase and update apps via iTunes. Alot of people have had problems with there phones when trying to buy and update apps from there iPhone. I would always go through Itunes just to save yourself the headache.

First, I, too, have had issues with Apple's way of installing/updating apps. Seems as if one has to do it twice (once via the the iPhone and once on the host computer) and then it STILL requires an add'l reboot of the phone afterwards. I certainly expected better from Apple.
And since we're on the subject of Apple's App store, I notice last night and again this morning that I am unable to update several apps b/c the "store may be busy" (see snapshot) even though I can still access the App store via iTunes. Has anyone else experienced this or know of any issues with the App store?
I got the same message and clicked to Dl anyway. It still Dl and loaded to my hoe with no problems.
