Anyway To Clear App Store Update History in iOS 7 ?

I like iOS 7 very much but would rather the App Store update history clear itself or maybe be just a link one can click.  In previous versions clicking on Updates would poll only for new ones and/or tell you that you were up to date.

Yep! I see the relevance of this feature if you choose to activate "auto update" in settings, so you can tell the moment you got screwed by a bad update, but that's about all it's useful for. Nobody cares when an app is updated if it works out and it's not like you can revert back to the previous version via this list if it doesn't! The only way you can do that is delete the app and re-install via iTunes as long as you've set that not to auto download app updates.
I say if you chose to activate "auto update" then this info is minimally useful at best. If you chose to go without it on your iOS device you are manually chossing to update and obviously know what you are doing and the update history list is nothing more than clutter. There should be a setting that lets you opt in or out for this info or they should make it so that it only shows this data if you chose to select "auto update".

    You can't delete your purchase history, you can only hide it (in iTunes on your computer).

  • App store update does not clear after update applied

    I just got my iphone not too long ago.  I updated yesterday via iTunes the applications on my iphone.  the app store still shows one of the apps, numbers as needing updating but the application is already updated.  How do I clear this spurious flag that should not be there?

    However this does point to a bug in the app store update feature.  There should be some way to force a check of applications that updated but are still showing as needed in the app store.

  • TS1702 Apps are 'frozen' on App Store Update Page - After Updating

    I've gone from non-stop App Store updates to zero App Store updates on my iPhone 5.
    However, the App Store Update Page just will not clear now. All are downloaded and that usually clears this page until the next updates are ready for download.
    Anyway, no luck ridding myself of these already downloaded Apps from the App Store Update Page. I
    I've opened each App from this page, tried force closing the App Store and rebooting etc.
    I tried deleting all the "frozen" Apps. They disappeared from the App Store update page. But once I went and downloaded the Apps again (this time using iTunes (to circumvent the device App Store) they appeared right back on the same page.

    There is, currently, no way to remove them. Whether by design or not, is not known. I thought they rolled off after a week, but I can confirm they don't.

    Looks O.K. to me Opens correctly in Firefox and Opera as a log-in page for Killer Content - Win7x64 Fx5.
    I can't see any oddities in your plug-ins. It never hurts to clear any relevant cookies and your cache.
    You could see how it goes in Safe Mode - Hold Shift key down as you double click on the Firefox icon>ignore the page that opens and continue. If the page opens you probably have a problem with extensions or themes and you should work through this -
    https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting%20extensions%20and%20themes
    A lot of things have been updated as well as Firefox and you could have a culprit or conflict. Next, if there is no improvement you could try disabling third party toolbars, and you should report back at this stage or if there has been early success.
    Someone may come by with a more specific remedy.

  • Delete Apps store/updates/purchase on iphone

    Hello,
    I have several apps on my iphone within: Apps store/updates/purchase.
    There are some apps I want to delete (not hide).
    Please help!
    Greetings
    Mies

    After updated apps, apps would  disappear on iOS 6 but not iOS 7 apps will not disappear as long lists of apps where are completed and won't disappears.. I read article and explained how to get rid of the updated apps that it said:
    "This is by design now due to the Automatic Updates Feature.  The only way I have found to clear them is to go into Setting> General> Date & Time and turn off the automatic setting, set your month to several days/month in the future..
    Then go back to the App Store and the updates should clear, Then go back to your Date & Time setting and change it back to automatic" by KalebsDad78.
    I did try this but still there and won't clear..  I can't figure it out how to get rid..

  • IOS 8.1 App Store updates

    Hi,
    In iOS 8.0, 8.02 and now 8.1, I have noticed apps appearing in the app store update section waiting to be updated, that once you update the apps, they are NOT cleared out of the "Updates" page.
    This was a problem, if I'm not mistaken, during iOS 7also.
    Anyone else experiencing this problem as well ??
    Benja

    I found some other comments which alluded to removing all items in my "newsstand".   I did that, rebooted and now application updates are working again.  Of course, this isn't a long term solution as I do want my newsstand magazines back.    When are we getting a fix?

  • App store updates I get an error that says "cannot connect to iTunes Store"

    On my iphone under the App store updates, I get an error that says "cannot connect to iTunes Store"

    Thanks for responding turingtest2 - I finally worked it out (no thanks to Apple!) - I am in South Africa at the moment and availability of content here is very limited (it seems) according to the bloggers - when I looked there is a tiny faint grey note at the bottom of http://www.apple.com/za/itunes/download ...
    it seems to pick up South Africa and the UK - in fact I have set up an alternative UK apple ID so I suppose it sees my ipad, checks my "accounts" and constructs the note accordingly?  Weird. 
    It would have been REALLY helpful to have a clear indication of content availability when setting up the South African account.  I have found the several places where the experts explain how to work around this problem with fake US addresses and voucher payments.  I don't want to do that. 
    I have to say that my limited experience with iTunes and Apple over three years (previously on PC/Windows) is way below what I would expect from Apple inc ... this incident must have wasted four hours of my life ...

  • App Store updates from iPhone issue

    Having issues with App Store updates.
    I see on my iPhone that I have 12 updates. However, when i go to install the update, it does not work on the iPhone. Anyone else having this kind of issue? If so how are you resolving it. Find this to be a real nuisance with the App Store on the iPhone.
    Thanks and I look forward to your reply.
    ...Bruce

    Hey Bruce...similar problem. As of about 4 weeks ago I can no longer get updates on iTunes. iTunes will tell me that I have some, but when I go to get them, it says "No Updates At This Time. Check Again Later"but I can clearly see I have three waiting...so I have to download them all through my iPhone and then sync back to iTunes. Frustrating.

    Hi there, I recently purchased an app and I need to re download it onto my iphone 4s. The app is saved on my laptop and is not available on my app store download history. Can anyone advice how I can redownload it from my laptop?

    You just resync your iPhone with iTunes on your laptop.
    If you are logged with the same Apple ID on both devices it should be available to download from your phone:
    Open App Store app > Updates > Purchased

  • App Store Update Stuck/Looping - Yosemite Recovery Update 1.0

    My system seems to be in an infinite loop trying to install the Yosemite Recovery Update 1.0.  At first, it seems like the download is complete and when I click on install, the button immediately turns o "Installed", then shows up in the list of apps updated over the past 30 days but pops back up as an update again with an Update button - starts downloading again, and the downloading seems to never end (ultra slow).
    I've tried emptying the temporary folders for anything related to the App Store Updates, rebooting and clearing NVRAM, nothing has worked.  I have also tried finding a link to download this update directly but could not find it.  I had the same issue when updating to 10.10.3 OS X but used the combo download link to get around the issue and that part of the update is now resolved.
    Any ideas/suggestions?
    Thanks

    Tried your suggestion including a reboot, no changes.  I have attached a screenshot showing the repeat loop and now the download never seems to complete.  Every time I turn my machine back on, it tries resuming the download from where it last left off.  This isn't a network issue as I have blazing fast speeds in everything else I do and when I downloaded the OS X 10.10.3 update manually, it went super fact.
    Something seems to be stuck or gone haywire in the App Store update.  I also tried deleted all the temp files in the temporary directory related to the App Store but still no changes.  Also tried a safeboot and doing it from there, no go.  Open to any/all suggestions.  Thanks

  • IOS8 on a IPhone 5 bugs, youmail, Email and app store updates

    I've discovered the following oddities with IOS 8.0.  Maybe they will be repaired when I install 8.0.2, however I wanted to document them.
    App Store updates do not clear from the list after they have been downloaded and installed.  For instance I updated 5 apps.  I downloaded them via Itunes and synchronized my IPhone 5 as I normally do.  The App Store Icon still shows I have 5 apps which need to be updated.  Opening the App Store icon, and clicking on the updates tab does not clear the list.  It instead shows the "update" soft key for a moment and then it changes to "open".  I have tried several things including rebooting my IPhone 5 to no avail.  I did notice that when a new app shows appears to be updated the previous apps which were indeed updated are purged from the list. After downloading via ITunes and again synchronizing my phone, the latest app which has been updated also will not purge from the list when clicking on the "updates" soft key.  Now my App Store icon continues to show that I need to update one app.
    Youmail app.  I can't purge (delete) voice mails from the trash folder.  Selecting them, and selecting the purge (delete) soft key does not remove them. It's as if the command is ignored.
    Email,  I noticed that when I use the delete all soft key from the trash folder selecting the "edit" soft key and then "delete all" that the soft key in the upper right corner which normally changes from "edit" to "cancel" when I select delete all is blacks out like a hole in the screen.  The "cancel" soft key which normally appears there is gone.  I did note that touching the now black hole where the cancel soft key was previously still functions as "cancel".
    I am using the current version of ITunes 11.4.0.8 in a Windows 7 PC.

    Youmail just released an update which fixed the deletion problem with old voice mails.  The other problems are still not resolved, even with the 8.0.2 IOS update.

  • Mac App Store update: right Apple ID but wrong user account

    My Mac App Store updates get associated to the wrong user account but the correct Apple ID.
    I live in Germany and have an iMac and a MacBook Pro, both purchased under Snow Leopard and now running Lion 10.7.2. Just after upgrading to Lion I "purchased" a free App (BibleReader 5.0.0). This morning I logged into my wife's user account on the MacBook Pro, and the App Store icon flagged an update. I switched to my user account and was surprised to see that the update wasn't flagged there. By listing my purchases I did suceed in finding an "update" button for BibleReader, but pressing it resulted in a (German) error message whch translates as "An update is available for another account. Please log in with the account you used to purchase the App". But that is what I had just done.
    Intrigued I went back to my wife's user account. By logging onto the Mac App Store with my Apple ID from my wife's user account I did manage to update the app. Later at work I got the same error message on the iMac. But this time the only other user account on the machine belongs to Computing Services: I don't have their password and I ought not to use admin rights to gain access to their account. So I can't perform the upgrade on the iMac.
    All family iTunes / App Store purchases are via my main Apple ID. My wife's user account on the MacBook Pro only exists so that I can manually synchronise our iCloud address books (she has an iPad).
    Any ideas?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    All the applications you purchase on the App Store are registered to your Apple ID, so you have to use your Apple ID to update them, or you have to purchase those applications again using the Apple ID they are using on that computer, so they will be able to update them
