Hi,
Received an alert that 5 apps on my iPhone were ready for updating.
I have a 3 series iPhone that is only about 6 months old.
I checked and have all the latest updates on it IOS 5.0.1

Updates seemed to be starting then froze.
All 5 apps seem to be in "update" mode, but nothing proceeds.

What can I do??

Thx.
Frank

Can you erase them , and try to install from scratch?

I went to erase them and reinstall, and when I touched them individually without holding the icon to start the "wiggle" it started the install of that specific app. Had to do each individually, but it worked. Strange.
