IPhone Apps Stuck Installing?

I'm on the latest version of iOS, and currently a large number of my apps are "stuck" installing. I've attempted everything on the following thread to fix the issue, and can't seem to find anything else that suggests different solutions that work, either. I'll put the link to the thread in "additional details" a minute or so after the question publicly posts.

I'm sure deleting the apps and reinstalling would work, just as I'm sure resetting to factory settings and doing everything over again from there would work. Unfortunately, there are certain apps that are "stuck" that losing data on would be exceptionally inconvenient, and involve hours of hassle to remedy the situation should I end up losing data.

Anyone have any ideas? First person to post a solution which works will get "best answer".

Tap on the app and maybe it will resume installation

Just delete the app turn your phone off reboot then try it again and also clear the multitasking bar

Cool - tapping on the App does make it resume loading the update.

  • Why aren't my apps installing? I replaced my iPhone 4 today in the apple store and they transferred everything over to this one. They said all my apps would come back once I get home, I've been home 2 hours now and it still says 'waiting' below each app. Is this normal?
  • Stuck iPhone 4 lock button! Stuck/Stripped screws Okay so, I've had this stupid panda case on my phone and it jammed my lock button. It still works if you push super hard from the side, but no clicking sound. I saw how to fix it by opening my phone up but the screws won't come out no matter what! I tried a screwdriver alone, with duct tape, rubber band, double sided tape, everything! I don't have a warranty on my phone, and I'm looking for a super inexpensive (>$5) way to fix it, any ideas?

  • My iPhone 4s isn't installing apps? Whenever I try to install an app from the AppStore, the AppStore says it's downloading or it's done, but it doesn't show up. It shows up in my usage just not home screen. I'm on ios 7.1.2
