There was once a time i had the option to update all the apps that needed updating on the App Store, but ever since some time ago i dont have the option anymore, can someone tell me if i have to turn this on?
 
This feature has been done away with since 2.0.2.

Probably it was causing too many issues for people with corrupted app installs.
 
it still works under itunes, I think they took it off of the phone because of the time required to update apps over the cellular data networks, and it probably puts a lot of load on the phone itself trying to download and install a bunch of apps at once.
Although I never used it on the phone, so I don't really know if it took care of the apps one at a time or if it actually tried to do them all at once.
 
I was wondering this same exact thing, but I realized it was probably done on purpose. It would make sense as to why a lot of the iPhone issues were happening in regards to corrupted apps and network issues.
