When Updating or Downloading an App on my iPod touch, it Only Appears as "Waiting" I have an iPod touch 4th gen and the software is all up to date. I've had it for about 14 months, but the other day I was updating quite a few apps (maybe 16 or so) because I hadn't used my iPod touch for awhile. I don't know if this has anything to do with it but at the same time I was downloading some podcasts from the iTunes Store (which was also having some minor problems). 

I typed in the passcode then clicked "ok". It took a little longer then normal, but it closed the app store, went to home screen then the screen where all my apps are in files like usual. 

Five minutes later I realize that nothing has happened (all the updating apps are on "waiting") so I go back to the App Store and update it again. The same thing happens three more times with no luck. I turned my iPod touch off then on again and try uploading. Still nothing. 

A few days later I was trying to update again and then, after the tenth try and three restarts, it started updating. 

Two days after that I try updating 3 more apps and it works fine after the second try. 

Today I was trying to download Magic Piano from Smule (and I recently got the Glee app so it doesn't seem like there's something wrong with my iPod touch and Smule) and it won't download at all. I've tried restarting, pausing, deleting and re-downloading everything and nothing seems to be working. Right now I have some TV shows downloading onto my iPod touch, is that the problem? Help!
