Add/remove apps oddity

I found a small hiccup in iTunes 10 when it comes to syncing and removing apps. Here's how it's triggered...
* Buy any app on your iPhone that is not in your library (free ones count)
* Connect your iphone to your mac
* Go to the iPhone and choose the APPS tab ("Sync apps" and "automatically sync new apps" should be checked)
* Choose any program(s) that are currently on your iPhone to be removed from the list (the program you just purchased on your iPhone will not show up in the list yet)
* Press the APPLY button in the lower corner
* The APP(s) you selected to be removed from your iPhone will be removed, but then iTunes will add the new app you just purchased on the iPhone to your local library and will then RE-LOAD the APP(s) you had previously selected for removal. (It's like you never selected anything for removal at all.)
Shouldn't the "removal of apps" process come after the "copy new apps to the local library" process?

Guess what I didn't lose any data, not even in for instance games like Coin Dozer or Whatsapp or anything! I don't know how, but it's true! I didn't even have to re-login Wordfeud! Hurray!

I can't add/remove apps through iTunes.

I wanted to sync my apps with iTunes, as I haven't got the iTunes app on my iPhone (don't know how I did that either lol) and I also wanted it for some other stuff. Now the box 'Sync Apps' is unchecked, and when I check it iTunes warns me that every app and content of that app will be removed and replaced by the apps in the iTunes library.. I'm really not that keen on losing data in Whatsapp for instance, as my memory depends on that app, lol.
Anyway, is there any possibility that I can add/remove apps through iTunes without losing data on my iphone? Maybe by making some sort of backup?
I really hope there's someone with an answer to this one, as I'm really out of ideas to solve this.
Thanks,
Axel

Remove app-v package powershell

I'm trying to remove an app-v 4.6SP1 package using powershell. I've registered the snappin using the following article
http://posh4appv.codeplex.com/
however when I try to run any commands I get the following error
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Get-AppVPackages
Get-AppVPackages : Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
At line:1 char:1
+ Get-AppVPackages
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [Get-AppVPackages], NullReferenceException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : System.NullReferenceException,AppVSnapIn.GetAppVPackage

There's your issue then!
"The Microsoft App-V Server 4.6 SP1 PowerShell Snapin provides a set of Cmdlets to enable IT administrators
to manage App-V Server 4.6 SP1 using Microsoft Windows PowerShell."
If you want to manually add/remove apps from the client with a command line or script you will need to use sftmime.exe:

How do I add/remove print apps on my printer?

The way you add apps to your printer varies depending on the model.
I. On the following printers, use the "Get More" icon on the device to add additional print apps directly on the device: When you select the "Get More" icon on your printer front panel display, you will see a list of available apps for your pinter, and you can select and add apps to your printer from there:
HP Photosmart c309n-s
HP Photosmart Premium C310 series
HP Photosmart eAll-in-One Printer D410 series
To remove apps on these printers, select the "Get More" icon, and then select the "Manage Apps" button (at the top-left of the Touchsmart Web Apps" screen that appears). That will open the "Manage My Favorites" screen where you can remove apps by selecting the "X" on the app icons.
Any configuration required for print apps (e.g., entering Zip Code) on these devices will be prompted for when you run the print app.
II. On the HP eStation (with the removable tablet display).
Add apps: Select the tab (with the upwards arrow on it) at the bottom of the screen to open the app drawer. Then select the Add Apps option at the bottom of the screen to view available print apps.
Delete apps: Select the tab (with the upwards arrow on it) at the bottom of the screen to open the app drawer. Scroll down to display the Print Apps section. Select the Delete option and then select the app you wish to delete.
III. On other web-connected printers, if you select the "Get More" icon it will provide you the web site address for HP ePrintCenter - www.hpeprintcenter.com. You go there to add new apps, view apps on your printer, and setup/remove apps from your printer.
For those devices, to add more print apps:
Go to www.hpeprintcenter.com and log into your account. If you don't have an account yet, create an account and add your printer. Information on doing that can be found here: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/ePrint-Print-Apps-Mobile/Add-your-printer-to-your-HP-ePrintCenter-accou...
Select the "Get More Print Apps" link in the Print Apps section (below the ePrint section).
Select the icon of the print app you want to install, and then on the print app detail page select the "Add to Printer" button. If the print app requires setup, after adding it you will see a "Setup" button which you should select to configure the print app so it is ready to use.
To remove apps on these printers, select the "My Apps" link to display the apps installed on your device. Hold your mouse over the print app you would like to remove and a red X will appear, select the red X to remove the app.
As soon as you add or remove the print app from the HP ePrintCenter it will be removed/added on your printer...select the "Apps" icon to see all currently installed apps on your printer.
Note: Not all print apps are supported on all printers, and apps may be limited to cetain countries or languages. If you don't see a print app you are looking for when you access the "Get More Print Apps" link, that app is not currently available for your printer. We are regularly working on creating new apps and extend the printers on which existing apps are available, and you will see a star notification icons on the Get More icon on your printer when new apps are available.

Windows App Certification Kit - Test Fails for Validate Desktop App at "Write appropriate Add/Remove Program values"

Hi,
I am trying to validate a .Net Framework 4 WinForms application for use in the Microsoft Partner Network portal.
I am using Windows App Certification Kit 3.4 for Windows 8.1 , and the Validate Desktop App option.
To build the package I am using InstallShield 2012 SPR Limited Edition (for Visual Studio), and the validation fails
only with the following error (please also see the attached image):
Clean reversible install test: Failed to Write appropriate Add/Remove Program values
Error Found: The registry population test detected the following error: app didn't create the required registry entries.
A non-optional value 'DisplayName' is missing or invalid (same for 'Publisher', 'ProductVersion')
Please note that I have filled in all the publisher/product details in the InstallShield project, on the General Information page.
Also I have tried to use the Microsoft Visual Studio Installer Project for VS2013, and the validation failed with the exact same error.
(https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/9abe329c-9bba-44a1-be59-0fbf6151054d)
Any help would be very appreciated.
Thank you.

You may need to add the necessary info to the app’s Windows Installer package so it can configure Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel correctly. Setting these properties automatically writes the corresponding values into the registry. From the picture,
you are missing some necessary information about your desktop app.
Also You need the correct admin permissions to write to the registry.

While in Add/Remove Prog. in computer, I found apps named: iPOD for Windows 2006-03-23 (138 Mb) and another 2005-09-23 (106 Mb). I'm trying trying to free up computer HD space. What are these and can I delete either?

Those are outdated iPod software updaters which can be safely deleted.

You can sync an iPhone to only one computer. If you connect it to a different computer (or you have never connected it to a computer) it will delete all iTunes content on the phone and replace it with the iTunes content on the current computer. As Avis says, you can transfer your purchases to the computer you are about to sync to, but only if that computer is authorized to the same account that the content was downloaded under.

When i conect my ipod i cant add or remove apps using itunes

I connect my ipod touch to itunes and when i click on apps to add or remove apps i can see them but i can do anything on that page

- Check to see if you have Restrictions turned on since you can prohibit deleting apps. Go to Settings>Genera>Restrictions.
- Also, ensure that the iPod is signed in to the account that purchased the apps in question.

If you are using a Mac, simply hit Command-Spacebar to bring up Spotlight Search. Begin typing the name of the application and when you see what you are looking for, press enter. You should get a hit by the second or third letter you type. Great way to launch apps on computers that you are not familiar with.
Windows 7 and 8 should have something similar. I think you simply press the Windows key and begin typing. Press enter when you see a match.
Both Mac and Windows search tools can be customized to search for applications, files, emails and so forth. For Windows, look for Taskbar and Start Menu Properties. For Mac, go to Preferences Spotlight. Turn off items you know you won't need to speed up searches.

Unable to add/remove users in Mountain Lion Server (Options are greyed out)

For some reason, im unable to add/remove users in Mountain Lion server. The + and - are greyed out. It seems like something is wrong with the permissons because it looks like it cant write the the Ldav3 file (although that may be speculation). Does anyone have any advice for me? I URGENTLY need to add users.
Maybe theres a way to restore default permssions for the boot drive (if that in fact is the issue). Hopefully there is a way that I can fix this while leaving all users, groups, their permissions and shares intact.

Anything interesting and relevent in the server logs?
Anything interesting in the server alerts?
Since it's far and away the most common cause of problems with OS X Server and with distributed authentication (Open Directory is entirely based on network encryption and digital certificates and on responses from your local DNS server(s)), verify your local DNS configuration is working and requires no changes with the following Terminal.app (Applications > Utilities) harmless, diagnostic command:
sudo changeip -checkhostname
sudo requires an administrative password. You might get a one-time warning about the sudo, and that can safely be ignored. The command will display some details, and indicate whether the local configuration appears valid and no changes are required, or further diagnostics for (most) common errors that can arise.

How Do you add Your APP to XP windows system in control panel??.

Hi,
Is there a way to make your APP be part of XP windows? to go or have it list in Add/Remove programs in control panel and to show up and stay in the Taskbar( next to the time on dask top) and how do y ou add to Rigister in XP windows. Other words, make it part of the system I guess what I am asking
Dan Mac

you need access to the windows registry (via some jni library which you can find on google)
then you need to read this web page and fiddle with the settings in the registry
http://www.delphi32.com/info_facts/faq/faq_661.asp
the key you want to add a new key to is
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
and then associate some values with that key:
'DisplayName' = the string displayed in the add/remove programs window
'UninstallString' = the path to your application

How to clear IPAD2 's add-on APP Cookes?

How to clear IPAD2 's add-on APP Cookes, Ex: QQ HD,Map...not for Safira.

I'm just taking a guess but if you are trying to clear information from a third party app I would think that you would have to do that from any setting that the app may provide.
For instance in the pre installed Maps app you can clear bookmarks or recent searches by tapping on the Open Book icon (bookmarks) then select Bookmarks or Recents - tap Edit and then tap the red minus sign to remove the selection.
If the app doesn't have a setting to clear the information, cache or cookies, you can't do it with the iPad iOS settings.

Sync Space Problems as removed apps being added back

I had a problem with the original laptop in which I had itunes on so I haven't backed up or sync'd my phone for over 6 months. I finally got around to moving the itunes file to another computer. Now when I try to sync my phone it is trying to add the apps back that were deleted off the phone but were still on the last time on itunes backed up of the phone. So now the Apps are being added back and before it can complete the sync it runs out of space and cannot complete the process. Help how can I get around this, thanks.

You'd think that deleting an app from your iPhone and then syncing the iPhone would tell iTunes that you don't want that application on your iPhone any longer - but that isn't what happens. iTunes is your home base for applications and media. You have to tell iTunes what you want added to your iOS device or removed from your iOS device.
My habit is to connect my iOS device and immediately select the option to sync newly purchased items from the device to iTunes. Once that's done I select my device in iTunes and look over the applications and media to see that everything I want/don't want is correctly indicated. Then I sync again.
Step 1 gets all the updated and newly purchased stuff into iTunes. Step 2 makes sure I get only what I want (and exactly what I want) on my device.
