I have the same problem here. After a night, I woke up and all happened.
Apps Store can't update.
Cortana takes too long blabla.
Hotmail can't sync.
And some more.
Maybe it's a new issue and I can't find any solution so far. Hope that it will be fixed soon.

These issues might be related to the store.. Give it until tomorrow The last time people complained about the store it was back up and running in a matter of hours

Im still getting the same error on my girlfriends 720 everytime I try to sync her Hotmail account or install/update any app. However my 1020 has so such issues. What is going on

 

[Girish Viswanathan]

Were you able to find a resolution to this problem? I am apparently hitting the exact same issue and not sure how to resolve it.

Having the same issue with Lumia 920 on T-Mobile. I hope the update team is aware of this.

so guys, here is the solution. You need to ensure your data is backed up by looking up in settings and then backup. The next thing you need to do is go to settings and then open about section and then reset your phone. you will go through the spinning gears again and then you will be seeing a screen to set up ur phone as it was the first time u bought. it will ask you to verify your accounts including hotmail and then restore your backup to phone (apps take about 20-30 mins to restore with wifi) and ta daa ur phone will be free of errors. I did not lose much of the data only some photos as my phone restored to a 5 day before backup and some third party apps i deployed using sdks thats it. and yes! the version will still remain windows phone 8.1 without errors!


Hope it helps. Tried myself on my 520

Hi there,

You should reset the phone to get the apps again.

Use Setting>About>Reset your phone. You should backup data before reset and restore it after reset.

Good luck!

A reset should not be seen as a solution to a problem guys. it is a workaround that totally sucks especially in those cases where you don't have control over backups like on windows phone. because its not a backup but a "we try to find all information we have stored for you in onedrive and try to reinstall your system somehow.
