Hi,
I just got an iPhone 4s (it is my first smartphone) and I am blown away but what it can do. I have two questions that I am hoping someone can answer (please excuse me if these seem like ignorant questions):
1. The App Store said I had an update to an app (I think it was Where's the Water free edition), but when I clicked on updates, the update disappeared before I could install. After a bit the update notification appeared again and again the update disappeared before I could install. I know that Apple controls the updates, so I am not sure what is happening? Could the update have been pulled or staggered? Could a virus or malware be intervening?
2. In general, do iPhones get virueses or malware?
Thanks for any help with this.
There are no viruses or malware on iOS, one of the nice things about it ![]()
As for your disappearing update issue, try two things:
A reset: Hold the home and power buttons at the same time until the Apple boot logo appears. No data will be lost.Download a new app from the App Store, then check for updates again.

tap on app store, tap on update then tap on update all top right corner. you will be asked for apple id and or apple id password, enter requested info and it should happen
I dont think iphones get viruses

No. Probably just a connectivity issue with the app store. Try downloading the update with iTunes on your computer and sync the updated app to your phone.

No.
