Apps that come preinstalled on the phone
I have a Droid Charge. I realize that a lot of the apps that come on the phone can not be uninstalled. But is it possible to make an empty folder and move all of the ones that you don't want into that folder, essentially rendering them invisible?
Yes, this is what I see on the Stratosphere too when I tap Edit: a "-" sign, and the app icons have kind of a partial box around them on the top and left. That means that they can be moved around on the screen (or from screen to screen). But if you're not seeing an option to make a new folder, alongside Edit and List view, when you tap Menu, it may not be possible on that phone.
HOWEVER, I'm a newbie and not a Charge owner, so hopefully someone with more experience with your phone may be able to chime in here with a definitive answer. You might also try looking at http://www.chargeforums.com/forum/droid-charge-forum/.

can i delete the apps that comes with the 5s phone, like itunes, weather and others that i won't be using?
You can't delete some of the native apps but you can put them away in a folder OR some of them you can make invisible by restricting them (iTunes for example).

The application called VirusScan that comes preloaded on the macbook will no longer open, claiming that it is corrupt and that I must reinstall it. After looking in the app store it does not appear that said application is available for re-downloading. Is there a special, non-app store place where I am to go for this?
Also, I installed MacKeeper about two-three months ago and am questioning its performance. Looking for input as to whether or not this application helps or hinders my system.I'll back up Csound on the MacKeeper thing. In fact, I actually wrote the following about it:

Remove is ASAP. Do not use the provided uninstalled, as there are widespread reports of pop-ups advertising MacKeeper on your system after incompletely removing it. Try this:

As for VirusScan, Barney is right on the money that it does not come preinstalled on any Mac shipped new from Apple. However you have gotten it, your best bet is removing it. See my Mac Malware Guide for more information that will help you understand and avoid Mac malware without relying on anti-virus software.

Is there any way that you can delete APPS that come on the iPad 2 when you buy it? For example, the stock app, can you delete that or is it permanently on there?
You cannot delete the preinstalled apps on the iPad. You can check by tapping and holding down on the icon until it wiggles. If no X appears, you cannot delete it.
Move it to another screen or bury it in a folder called" Stuff I don't Want" -
I have just updated the op system on my phone, it now won't let me close down any apps that are open in the background, any ideas?
Double-click the Home button to bring up the app screen, then swipe upwards on the app.

Forum Tip: Since you're new here, you've probably not discovered the Search feature available on every Communities page, but next time, it might save you time (and everyone else from having to answer the same question multiple times) if you search a couple of ways for a topic, both in the relevant forums and in the Apple Knowledge Base before you post a question. -
My Music app that comes with the iOS immediately quits right after opening it. Is there a way to fix this? Can I reinstall the app? I know it cannot be deleted like another app as it comes with the phone.
Hi aragon7,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like an app closes when trying to open it. I would recommend that you read these articles, they may be helpful in troubleshooting your issue.

The Calendar app that came on my i4S Phone does not sync the correct time for items posted on my Yahoo Calendar. Actually, items post exactly 4 hours earlier than the correct time on my Yahoo Calendar. My i4S is in the correct New York time zone. Help?
I posted this question a while ago and didn't receive any responses but there are a lot of people who have viewed it and 10 have said they have the same question so I thought I would update you that I added my nanny to my exchange server account (created an email for her) and I send all invites to that email address and they work. So sending invites from an exchange server account to a non-exchange server account apparently is a bug so to solve it, get on an exchange server I guess.

IPad won't display my Gmail contacts in the Contacts app that comes with the IPad.
I have never been able to get my Gmail contacts imported into the Contacts app that comes with the IPad.
If you can be more specific about what you have tried, someone might be able to offer other solutions.
I sync my contacts and calendar with Gmail too. I don't use iCloud for syncing contacts. I have set it up as an exchange account. That works on both my ipad and iphone. Any changes made to either is reflected on the other.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Add new account>Microsoft Exchange. Leave out the domain name. The server when asked is m.google.com. Turn on contacts (and calendar or mail if you use them) and that's it.
If that does not work, perhaps you can describe what issue you are having. -
I am using an I phone 5 in Germany and trying to get text messaging to work through the hands free Bluetooth connection on a Honda CRV. It keeps telling me that text messaging is not a feature of my phone. messages come in on the phone.How to resolve ?
mono 8 bit 8k is 64kbps, yes. 8 bits times 8,000 = 64,000 = 64k bits/sec.
And yes I think that's a typo - there's no such thing as 'Mone' that I've ever heard of...
But you might want to check to find out if this is a mu-law non-linear format, possibly - there are several ways that 8 bit 8k wav files can be encoded, and typically phone systems don't use linear ones. If you have a log-in to Zultys' user-base system they have an FAQ there, I believe - the answer might be in that, and it won't cost $500. -

1. Double tap the home button to bring up the multi-tasking view
2. Swipe the app's windows upwards to close

i updated my ipod and my computer crashed during the update now the apps that come with the ipod such as the app store and itunes are not on my ipod how do i fix this
Connect your iPod to any computer with iTunes installed, highlight your device and try syncing the apps only. If it doesn't work might have to restore through iTunes. With the new iTunes and iCloud beta, you can have the iTunes list what apps are missing on your device but if you had previously purchased in the past and then have iTunes install them. You should always get in the habit of backing up your iPhone whenever you do any firmware/OS updating/upgrading or transferring over to new device. I really really really really hope you can get back at least some of your old info. I will tell you this, I have been kicking myself in the butt for not routinely backing up my iPhone when my beautiful special iPhone 4 came up missing and had to revert back to my 3GS. iPhone 5 will be released in a few months so I am holding off on purchasing a new iPhone til then, not that I did so without reservation and a little bit of iPhone 4 withdraw.
