I was wondering is there a way to ignore a update for app in google play or even away to set it to always ignore the update
Open play. Then open settings. Then turn off notifications.
google play
I mean just for certain apparently not all.
Try this...
Go to my Apps
Hit the application that you don't want to update and them hit "update".
When the apk starts updating, click the "x" and cancel the update.
After that, the update will be only manual for this apk.
Hope this help.

I don't use my A700 all that much but I have noticed recently that none of my downloaded apps from the play store are automatically updating as they used to do. I have done a search of the internet and found others that have had a similar problem but none of the fixes have worked for me.
I am using Adroid 4.1.1, kernel version 3.1.10+ and build number Acer_AV051_A700_1.052.00_PA_CUS1. I have checked for updates but the tablet says none are available.

First off, I moved your post to Q & A forum.
As with your issue, going to Settings and checking for updates, is only for the Operating System, Not for apps.
Several changes to the Play Store in updating things. You can open your Play Store (old Market) and select your Installed Apps icon. This will tell you what apps need updated, and you can d it from there (best to have a good Wifi connection as I think you have many updates).
As with Auto-Updating, I believe each app you have installed has this available as an option. Normally, I select it when I install an app from the Play Store. So check your Play store options.

Thanks MD
I guess that is where the problem lies. I go to Play Store but I cannot find a Installed Apps icon.
I went to settings and see "Auto-update apps" under the General category does not have a check mark next to it. I tapped it and made sure that "Auto-update apps at any time. Data charges may apply" is checked. Still no updates.
Thanks for your help
I´m not quite sure but I think I have a similar problem: Each time I want to install/update an app I have to kill all Google tasks in settings. I am on stock 4.1.1 rooted.

With Play Store, select the "down arrow" in the upper right corner. This takes you to "installed apps" and "All apps you have downloaded. Go to Installed Apps, and you can manually update them. Also, if you select an app, you can select auto updating. :good:

Don't have an answer for that one. However, you can kill the auto sync in quick settings rather than going directly into settings.

Thanks MD, that helped things along. I completely missed the "INSTALLED" at the top of the screen which does not surprise me in my advanced age.
Autoupdate is enabled for all of my apps but I still don't see the downloading being displayed in the lower right corner as I used to see in the past and a notification that an update for an app had completed. Maybe I am being impatient.
Thanks again for your help.
Most of the MIUI users (even some non-MIUI users) might have seen this error 905 in play store while downloading apps. Your download stops all of a sudden, showing this error code. You might have tried that "goto settings>apps>play store, then uninstall updates, reboot, update play store" method and still this error wasnt fixed.
Well let me tell you, this is not a problem with play store but rather its a problem with MIUI(atleast thats my present conclusion). The reason why this happens is because of the play store app that has been stopped by MIUI RAM management, or when you clear the "recent apps".
As of now, the only fix which I could figure out was to make the play store persistent in RAM, atleast till the download is over. So probably, the question arises, "HOW?"
Just do the following:
- Open play store and start downloading whatever app you want to download.
- After download starts, open "recent apps" by tapping (or long pressing) the "recents" navigation button.
- Now click and drag the play store app icon down. This will lock the play store app in memory.
Thats it! Now the download won't be interrupted in between.
If required, after download finishes, goto recents and drag down the play store app again to unlock it.
NOTE: Some games need to download its additional files which will be downloaded once the app is installed and opened for the first time. That download will also get interrupted sometimes, if you leave it in background. You can repeat the steps above with whatever game/app to fix the interruption.
For non-MIUI users, there are a few ways to lock an app in memory, but I'm not sure about the percentage of success just because I don't have any non-MIUI phone which showed this error, to test it out. You're always welcome to test it and post the results, as to whether it did the trick or not.
new to this forum and desperate need some help. TIA.
I did an update when got prompt this week. Since then, i no long able to play music through the music app or any app. I still can see the songs. When I click, there is a blink and then nothing happened. rebooted multiply times, downloaded few new music apps and all the same.
running MHA-L29 8.0.0.367(C567)
At this point if nothing else fixed it (clearing OS cache, clearing app cache) I would suggest a factory reset.

I had a bug, not music, but here's one that fixed mine, and a few other people's glitches.
Settings>Apps & notifications>Apps>Google Play Services
STOP the app.
Storage, clear cache.
Then go back to the app, scroll to the bottom where it says store, click that, and uninstall the play app, or
just go to the play store under your account for this phone and uninstall the play app. This puts it back to
the stock app (mine went from version 12.xx to 11.xx), reboot the phone and see if that fixes it.
If not, just update the play app on the play store.
That fixed the issue I was having with SEVERE lag on opening, using and closing apps.

DO NOT update the play app. Keep it at the 11.xx version. So far, I have only one app that nags me that I need to update
the play app. I just ignore it.

I tried again, still have it in 11.xx version. my music still the same. not working. hope that future update can fix it.
I am unable to get any search results for the last few days.
I have cleared cache and cleared all data but it's still the same.
I've uninstalled updates for Android System Webview.
I've tried deleting the widget (by moving it to the top of the screen) but it won't move.
Any idea how to get this to work again?
GO TO APP MANAGER AND THEN SELECT GOOGLE APP.
THEN CLICK FORCE STOP.
IF THAT METHOD NOT WORK FOR YOU TRY UNINSTALL GOOGLE APP AND REINSTALL IT[FROM GOOGLE PLAY DON'T INSTALL FROM APK] OR LEAVE GOOGLE BETA PROGRAMS

Uninstalled from Google Play (updates uninstalled) made it work again.
An update appeared for Google, I updated and it's not working again. There is a problem with one of the latest updates by the look of it.
How do I let Google know that one of the updates is causing problems?
GO TO PLAYSTORE AND GO TO GOOGLE APP THEN SCROLL DOWN AND THEN TYPE A REVIEW AND POST IT
YOU CAN ALSO REPORT YOUR BUG TO GOOGLE BY ANOTHER WAY.
GOOGLE HAS A SITE TO REPORT GOOGLE BUGS YOU CAN TRY THAT WAY.[IT'S EASY]
FIRST GO TO THA SITE AND SELET YOUR PROBLEM AND SUBMIT THAT FORM TO GOOGLE DEVELOPMENT.
HERE IS THE GOOGLE SITE LINK----https://www.google.com/appserve/security-bugs/m2/new
Often when I open an app that I use not so much, that requests to update and I must wait to use it.
There is an option to always automatic update all apps?
Yes there is. Via play store go to settings->Network preferences->Auto-update apps.
