I know what you mean, Rose, I don't use ITunes any more than I have to since
so much can be done anymore over the phone itself. I'll go in now and then
to make a computer backup in case I need one or maybe add ringtones.

Well, I have not found an update button in iTunes 12.3. I do them over the
iPhone mostly and use file/transfer purchases periodically.
They keep making iTunes more and more difficult as far as I am concerned.
I use Windows 7, latest iTunes, Jaws 17 for the most part. I absolutely
hate iTunes but use it to sync and do backups.
I don't know if it works any better on a MAC, as I don't have one.

Goodness! I'll just continue to update through my phone. I don't care if
they're on the computer or not; I'll just check my purchase history.

Subject: A Quick Tip for Those Experiencing Any App Updating Problems in
iTunes
Hello All,
I am cross-posting this to both the Mac Visionaries and v iPhone mailing
list because I think the steps described below will apply to both the
Windows and Mac versions of iTunes.
Today, in iTunes for Windows, I received a couple of download errors when
attempting to update a couple of apps. The errors, effectively stated, that
the download URLs were invalid.
NOTE 1:
I use Jaws 16 for Windows on this particular PC. I make extensive use of
the Jaws Touch Cursor to interact with both iTunes and the iTunes Store.
The computer in this scenario does not have an actual touch screen.
Summary:
My solution was to cancel the download session, then right-mouse click on
each of the problem apps which displayed a list of options including one to
show the app in the App Store. Once there, I simply clicked the download
button for the app at which point it downloaded properly. Upon checking for
updates, again, the problem app was no longer listed.
NOTE 2:
The reason I update my apps via iTunes on a desktop is because, as of iOS
9.x, updated apps are no longer automatically copied from the iOS device to
the computer during sync sessions.
Steps:
The scenario in iTunes for Windows goes something like the following:
1.
Open iTunes and go to the Update apps section. A list/grid of all the apps
that have updates available should be displayed. If not, then click the
Check for Updates button.
2.
Select Update All.
3.
As the apps are successfully updated, they will be removed from the
list/grid.
4.
If there is an app that cannot be updated for various reasons, a dialog box
will be displayed with a cursory explanation as to why the download failed.
At this point you can attempt to resume the download, at which point it will
be successful; if not, go to the next step.
5.
If any of the apps fail to download, iTunes will be placed into pause mode.
Your only option at this point will be to attempt to resume the download at
which point failure will occur again. The only way to get out of this loop,
at least, the only way I have discovered, is to close iTunes.
6.
Re-open iTunes. You should immediately be returned to the most recently
viewed area of the application. In this scenario, the Apps update area.
7.
At this point your update list/grid will only contain the apps that have
failed to update. Right-mouse click on each app. From the resulting
Shortcut list, select "Show in iTunes Store".
8.
Once the app is displayed in the iTunes Store, simply select the Download
button. Upon successful download, the app will no longer appear in the Apps
Update area of iTunes.
Good Luck,
Mark
