Ever since updating to iOS 6 I'm unable to access purchased apps on any of my iOS devices. I just got an iPhone 5 and I'm still unable. When I click on the purchased tab it just keeps loading and eventually crashes out to the home screen.

I've searched for fixes on the web but I haven't had any luck.

Here's a few things I've tried.

1. Syncing with iTunes.

2. I tried logging out of the App Store closing the app then logging back in.

3. I also tried doing a full restore and had no luck.

Does anyone know if there's anything else I can do?

I'm on iOS 6.0.1
 
Happens to alot of users as well.

Wait for iOS 6.1 to arrive. Should solve the problem.
 
It's a server side issue. Apple servers and backend software are too slow. Apple can't do internet services well. It's like Apple Maps.
Yeah, sadly it's essentially just another (out of at least a few) issue with the new iOS 6 App Store, which is server-based for the most part.

Not sure why Apple isn't doing more to address the issues there, especially since fixing/changing things there doesn't even really require a client update of any sort.

Probably because no one at Apple knows how to fix it.......like with Apple Maps.

The weird thing is that the purchased apps issue and various other issues that are present in the new iOS 6 App Store are not there in the old pre-iOS 6 App Store that people on iOS 5 and earlier still get to use. So, these aren't really issues that don't have solutions, given that they don't exist in other version(s) of the App Store.

The App Store using iOS 5 was already really slow to load the app updates page. With iOS 6, it has gotten unusable likely because Apple is serving up different html/xml with the new styling that looks bad and is slow.
