Having trouble downloading apps from the App Store

Hi, I am been unsuccessful in re-downloading my apps and updating my other apps in the App Store. I checked to see if it was a space issue and I seen that I have more than enough space. I am unsure on what to do next.

Thanks in advance!

What is your idea of "more than enough space"?


Try a different wifi network; office, library, coffee shop.

Hi sorry for the late reply. Today I am trying again at a library and I am still having difficulty uploading and downloading Apps.

By "more than enough space" I mean that I have 19 GB free space left and I can't even upload the Apple 'Pages' app and re-download Evernote. Both of which apps will not go over my 19GB.

I don't know what to do. For example, the Pages app will download 3/4 of the way then pause. I'll eventually receive a message saying "failed to download".


At this point I may have to take it to the Apple store.


Thanks in advance!
