App updates dont disappear after downloading them.

Anyone else having the issue where you download the updates to your iPhone/Touch apps and they are still showing up in iTunes? Just started happening with this last iTunes update.

My problem isn't new updates, it's old ones...
App updates currently replace the old versions and move them to the Trash as they should. But the Mobile Applications folder in iTunes has some multiple versions of App updates. What's there is the new update and older versions with 2008 dates. (Maybe pre-3.x software?) I guess it's not a big issue, but, like you, I wonder why older updates haven't been thrown out. Can I just Trash the old versions?

  • App updates not deleting after download.

    iTunes has stopped deleting app updates after they have been downloaded. I now have 25 apps to download everytime I get a new update. Can anybody help me solve this. I'm on latest version of iTunes 10.6.3 and OSX 10.7.4

  • App updates not disappearing after updating

    I definitely didn't have this problem before iOS 7: after I update an app on the App Store on my iPhone 5, the update doesn't go away. It will stay there with 'open' instead of 'update', but stays there for good. Any help?

    Greetings, iinami, I also had the same issue on my iPhone under iOS 7.0.4, but I found a solution to clear out those dozens of App's purchases which clutter the Updates' window, and they would not go away even after you had already opened the update.
    This procedure worked on my iPhone, you may want to give it a try:
    1. Go to Settings > General > Date & Time;
    2. Turn off "Set Automatically";
    3. Click on your date and time (displayed in blue);
    4. Set the Month/Year to a year from today (say: "Jan 26, 2015")
    5. Exit Settings
    6. Now check your App-Store Updates' status
    Voila!
    You can set your Date & Time back to "Set Automatically". Those Apps will not re-appear.
    I have just found this out while I have not had an update since. So, I am not sure, but I have a felling that this will recur on my next update and the next, and so on.
    This is either a bug or Apple has set the updated app to go away on a timer. What a waste of time for Apple and for us.
    Perhaps Apple could use a little of "if it isn't broken don't fix it!".
    I wish you success!

  • I have had to re download four apps that just disappeared after downloaded the first time

    Why do some of my apps suddenly disappear and have to be re downloaded

    Hi tmcrae
    First check that your device is not full, maybe you may have to delete some photos or apps to make space to do updates. if its not full then you will have to try pluging it into your pc/mac running itunes then doing a backup and restore. Then you should be able to do your updates.
    Sorry but i cant think of any other way if its showing as installed already but is not there.
    Hope that helps

  • App updates not disappearing after installation

    I received notification in my iPad's App Store that new updates were available. I selected Update All, and they were all applied successfully. However, when I returned to the App Store all the update icons were still there even though the updates were applied - what's up with that? PS I'm running iOS 7. Thanks for Help on this one!

    That seems to be a new thing. I actually like it, because it has the date of the update and includes a description of what was IN the update. I can't tell you how many times I've applied an update and then wondered... what were the new features again?

  • HT203421 I have recently purchased some apps from the app store and after downloading them, the icon that appears in the dock changes to a different icon. It is now the same icon appearing on all newly downloaded apps.  Does anyone know what is happening

    I have recently purchased some apps from the app store and after downloading them, the icon that appears in the dock changes to a different icon. It is now the same icon appearing on all newly downloaded apps.  Does anyone know what is happening here? Even updating an older game app resulted in the original game icon changing to the new identical icon that all new apps are appearing with.  This new icon is like a page with a ruler, pencil and paintbrush. Any tips on how to stop this or how to revert to the icon as it appears on the app store would be appreciated.

  • Apps don't disappear after updating

    My updated apps don't disappear after updating concludes on my iPad.  I noticed that this only started happening after installation of iOS7.

    Hi Aleagle,
    Just so you know, the reason this was changed for iOS 7 was in conjunction with the Automatic Update feature that was also introduced with iOS 7. If updates to apps are being done automatically, then you would have no way to know what apps were updated or when. This new list in the Updates tab was added to provide the update history information.
    Cheers,

  • I have apps that say they are open in the app updates, how do I get them to close and not run in the updates?

    I have apps that say they are open in the apps updates, how do I get them to close in the app updates?

    This is normal under iOS 7. The App Store app shows all apps you have updated and are displayed in an "updated" list. The apps will drop off of the list in a few weeks or so. If they show as being updated, then they have in fact been updated. They will remain in the "updated" list until they are dropped off after a time.

  • Should I download Aperture 3.6 compatibility update before or after downloading Yosemite?

    I'm running Mavericks OS on my late 2009 MacBook.
    I would like to download Yosemite but I'm worried about my photos on Aperture 3. Should I download the Aperture 3.6 compatibility update before or after downloading Yosemite.? Thanks.

    I bought Aperture 3 from the App Store some time ago but got it updated regularly
    Does that mean, you are now running Aperture 3.5.1? Then you should be seeing Aperture on the Purchases tab of the App Store and your Aperture license has been associated with your Apple ID.

  • Sidebar show 19 App Updates Available, but cannot download

    I have had my Ipod 16GB touch for 2 years. I recently downloaded some new apps and sync'ed my Ipod and went on vacation. Once on the plane, I noticed that none of my new Apps were on the Ipod and many of my old apps were gone from the Ipod. When I got back home, I went to sign in to Itunes, and my account had been deleted. I couldn't recover my password or anything as it said my user ID did not exist. I re-entered all the information, and I can now download new stuff, but in the sidebar, it says there are 19 updates available, but when I drill in, it says there are no updates available. When I click on "Cathy's Ipod" and go to the applications tab, there are many Apps not click for syncing, when I try to click them and re-sync, it briefly pops up that it is syncing the App, but does not complete, and when the total sync is complete, the box goes unchecked again. I am at a loss here. I am afraid to reformat the Ipod as I had to create my account again and afraid I will lose all my Apps I have paid for.

    I DID do a password change a little while back, but I would not think that should create a problem.
    That's most likely your problem, as apps are DRM protected & tied to the account that was originally used to purchase them for all updates or to re-download them should that need ever arise. Contact itunes support to straighten this out:

  • Is it wise to keep the Nikon camera files "DSC's"  after downloading them and converting to DNG files via Adobe converter for lightroom use. In other words do the DNG files have all the raw data I would ever need in processing or should I save the camera'

    Is it wise to keep the Nikon camera files "DSC's"  after downloading them and converting to DNG files via Adobe converter for lightroom use. In other words do the DNG files have all the raw data I would ever need in processing or should I save the camera's DSC files?

    DNG files do not contain some metadata supplied by the camera, which can be used by the manufacturer's software. Thus, if you don't keep the original Raw photo, you will lose this information.
    If your 1000% sure you're never going to use the manufacturer's software, then this isn't a problem. But who can be sure what software you will be using 10 years from now?

  • HT1725 whenever i download larger apps i.e 100mb, after download is completed, instead of processing it just restarts downloading

    whenever i download larger apps i.e > 100mb,
    after download is completed, instead of processing it just restarts downloading

    You can automatically save downloads without seeing the Open/Save/Cancel dialog in the Options:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > General > "Saves files to"
    However, I can't think of a way to have the Open/Save/Cancel dialog always default to Save. I think mine suggests whatever I did last for the same type of content, but I haven't paid close attention.
    I'm out of time to address the problem with "do this automatically" but there is one suggestion for why it could be grayed out in this article: [[Change what Firefox does when you click on or download a file]].
    Is it possible you had a download-related extension before? To compare settings and extensions, please retain the Old Firefox Data folder on your desktop. Aside from checking the extensions in there, it would be interesting to run a text file comparison on your currently active prefs.js file and your old one in that folder.

  • Creative Cloud Installer gets half way through downloading the desktop app then just disappears, without downloading, why is that?

    Creative Cloud Installer gets half way through downloading the desktop app then just disappears, without downloading, why is that?
    I have recently purchased a student subscription to the 'complete package', my credit card was charged.  Then I download the Creative Cloud Installer from the website, that's fine, then I double click the Creative Cloud Installer as per instructions, it starts downloading the desktop app, but only gets to about halfway then just disappears. 
    I've tried using both safari and chrome, restarting my computer, but neither has worked.
    I have noticed that the website will not keep me logged in for long either, it keeps switching to BUY instead of DOWNLOAD. 
    Any ideas?
