Minor firmware issues, such as erroneous applications on your phone, can be resolved by doing a simple reboot (soft reset). For a few seconds, press and hold the Power button until the Power off slider displays. Switch your iPhone off, wait a minute or two, and then turn it back on.
Downloading or updating an app on the App Store can be resumed.
This strategy can also help iPhone users who are stuck in the 'iPhone app waiting' condition when downloading an app. Here's how it's done:
- Go to the App Store on your iPhone.
- Find the program you wish to install.
- To download a free version of the program, tap the Free button. To purchase a paid version, tap the Purchase button.
- To continue, tap the Install button.
Follow the on-screen instructions until the app is downloaded and installed on your phone.
