Hi. I got a new apple watch sport 38 mm for Christmas and for the most part I love it. I have been waiting for it since it came out. I am however having a few problems with it, the biggest of them being that I can not put apps on the watch. When I first set it up, it asked me if I wanted to sync all the apps or not. I said yes. I understand that not all iOS apps have a watch app so only the apps with watch apps would sync. However,even some apps that do have watch apps did not sync. When I noticed that not all the watch apps installed on the first setup I tried installing them manually. I tried restarting the phone and watch and even putting the watch on the charger when trying to install the apps. I go into the watch app on my iPhone and turned on show on apple watch. The button turns on and beside it it says installing. It stays this way for about 20 seconds, then the word installing goes away and the show on apple watch button turns itself off. I wait a long time before removing the watch from the charger to make sure it has time to finnish installing. Even after another restart of the watch the app I tried to install is not there. This has happened to me more then once on 3 different apps.

Try Unpairing and Re-pairing
First make sure your watch is running Watch OS2.1. Then if all else fails, unpair and re-pair. That fixed all of the problems I had with syncing. Hope you get it working soon.
still won't work
I updated my watch and reset it to factory settings and set it up as a new watch. I still have some apps that will not install to the watch but some other apps install fine.
