If it does not work, the problem may also be that the app didn’t get downloaded completely. so, remove it and try downloading it again. i found it much better to download app over wifi, rather than 3g.. I already reset and hard reset my iphone4 and i also did the restore iphone on itunes connected by the usb cord…but still after that its the same thing i still cant update and download application stuck on waiting then it will say unable to download app at this time…please help me… thanks alot in advance. I had the issue for months on end and tried all of the reported things to fix it. none worked. i finally discovered that it was caused by the overcast app that was trying to download some old podcasts that were no longer available online..
