Can I tell iTunes, on my desktop, to delete any apps that I don't have installed on my devices?
I want to know if there is a way to ask iTunes to delete any and all unused mobile apps that I do not have installed on either of my mobile devices?
I have apps that I haven't used in a long while and, while I can delete them manually, I was wondering if there was a way to ask iTunes to automatically delete any apps that are not currently installed on my devices?
Thoughts?
That would be nice, but I do not believe it's currently possible.
However, this blog outlines a way to do it by deleting everything from iTunes and then reimporting from your devices.

How can I sync my various email accounts into an iCloud account. Example. I have an embarqmail.account. How can I get it to sync with iPhone, iPad, iMac so that I don't have to read or review eMails on all 3 devices. Thanks
You need OSX 10.7.2 or higher in order to access icloud. The mobile me account is now defunct (it closed down more than a year ago).

When I try and sync my iphone (backup) with my imac any apps that I have put on the imac OR my iphone will not sync to eachother, so I lose some of my apps. WHen itunes (on the imac) tells me to authorise the changes/apps and I put my details in, it comes up with an itunes error code of -54 and -50. I cannot sync my iphone correctly to back up on the imac and I need to do this as I use my phone for work. I have an iphone 4GS and run Mac OS X 10.6.8.
Can anyone help me please?Thank you Carolyn, I understand that and do use the same P/w for both the iphone and the computer and the apps were origionally for the iphone anyway, they just used to back on the computer and now they wont and the imac even cancels them off my iphone when I sync. And it says "Itunes" has made an error, try again...with the coes -54 and -50. This means I canot ack up my iphone properly.

I can't launch itunes on PC it says it's on a locked disk and that I don't have write permissions for the folder.So how would I go about fixing this,any information would be helpfull.Cuz' I wanna transfer stuff from my PC to my Ipad and understand You have to go through itunes to do that.
The path C:/documents and setting/...iTunes.msi cannot be found. Verify that you have access to this location and try again, or try to find the installation package 'iTunes.msi' in a folder from which you can install the product iTunes.
Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time? -
How can I delete an app that doesn't show as installed but is?
I can not delete an app that is on my iphone 5. Unfortunely I do not remember the name of it! It shows up as a moveable round botton within a square on all opened screens. When tapped it opens up four options: Favorites, Siri, Device and Home. It was a cool time saver with the iOS5, but with the addition of comand center in iOS7 It is rather in the way. Does anyone know the name of this app and or how to uninstall it?? Thanks for any help
That did it, it's gone! I don't understand, is it uninstalled?
THANK YOU so much -
Had some wifi issues while downloading an album. First 3 tracks... sound stops way early but continues the count. How can I tell iTunes to redo the first 3? Any way to just fix it?
Hey davma1
All you need to delete the songs then go through the process of downloading the past purchase again.

How can I tell itunes to install iPhone App updates automatically?
ITunes 12 can download app updates. Right now I have to connect my iPhone, go the installed apps and click on (for each updated app) "update" to change it to "will update" and then click "sync". How can I tell iTunes to automatically update any updated app currently on the iPhone?
I know they need to be converted, but the problem is, 2000 of the 5000 have already been converted. now it's trying to convert them again. but there is no reason for that. i want to know how to convert the other files that weren't converted yet, without having to re-convert the ones that were already done.
I would move the ones that were done to a separate folder, but I don't know exactly what ones were done. In iTunes, they are the first 2000 or so in the list, but on my hard drive they are not in the same order.
Does anyone else know if there's a way to do this? -
When I try to sync my iphone with itunes, it tells me a warning that I don't have enough memory and yet the status bar at the bottom says that I do and I know that I have enough memory. What's the problem? It happens with the ipods and ipad as well!!!
The new iTunes has a somewhat different look from the previous version. You can get the old look back if you prefer it by doing View > Show Sidebar in iTunes. Or you can adapt to the new look.

I don't have a desktop computer is ther anyway I can sync my iPad music to my I pod without wires?, I don't have a desktop computer is ther anyway I can sync my iPad music to my I pod without wires?
No there isn't. You aren't stating which iPod that you have. If you have an iPod Touch that has wIfi access, you can download the iTunes purchased music again for free as long as you use the same Apple ID that you bought the music with originally.

I can't update apps on my iphone 5. theirs an old apple ID. That I don't have the pass word. I've created a new apple ID. but the old one keeps popping up. I have it on the Itunes on the phone but the old one keeps comming up and asking for a pass word.
Apps are permanently tied to the Apple ID used to purchase them. You will have to delete the apps from the phone and re-purchase them using your Apple ID.

How do I delete an app on iTunes? I can delete the apps that are shown in the library of iTunes by right clicking and hitting "delete". But all of my apps aren't shown in the library (I don't understand that either). I can see all downloaded apps in my account though. But I don't see how to delete them from there.
If you plug in your iphone, click on it in iTunes, and go to the apps section, it should be checked to sync apps if you want them to show up in iTunes as well as your iPhone. Once synced they will show on both.
Then if you click Apps under the Library header in the left panel of iTunes, you'll be able to permanently delete apps, removing them entirely from iTunes. Highlight an app's icon or a group of icons by holding down Shift and hit the delete key (or select Edit > Delete from the top menu or right-click on an icon and selecting delete). -
I bought a tv series from iTunes ... But now that I'm 1/2 way i get a pop up telling me that I don't have permission to view it ... Huh ? So now what do I do ? All the previous episodes I have in iCloud ... I'm using an iPad 2 ... Anyone shed some light on this

I have the 64bit version of itunes on windows 7. When I connect my iphone5 it says that I don't have the correct software and that I need to install itunes 64bit! And I can go no further! I've uninstalled and reinstalled but it makes no difference. I have no access to other computers so at the moment I don't have a backup for my iphone should anything go wrong.
Please Help!Hello ekbowers,
It sounds like you have installed the 64 bit version of iTunes, but you continue to the get an error message that suggests to download the 64 bit version any time you connect your iPhone 5. I understand that you have already uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes, but sometimes you may need to uninstall additional components related to iTunes to completely remove it from your system.
I recommend following the steps in this article to completely uninstall iTunes:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7

Once you have completely uninstalled iTunes, you can download the 65 bit version of iTunes for Windows here:
iTunes 11.0.4 for Windows 64

Can anyone tell me how to send a PDF file so that it opens up in the body of the email itself? Thanks
That is a function of the recipient's e-mail software understanding what your software sent. If it doesn't it will always show as an icon or attachment. It is also a function of both your internet provider and their internet provider accepting messages of that size, and a function of their download attachment settings in their e-mail program. There is no way to guarantee it will appear inline in the attachment. The best you can do is attach with Windows Friendly format. To do that, use the attach toolbar icon that looks like a paperclip, (View menu -> Customize toolbar if invisible) on Mac OS X Mail when composing the message. A checkbox appears in the file dialog box's bottom to make it Windows friendly when you navigate to pick the PDF file. That makes it as universally compatible as possible. It still may not appear inline, but at least you are less likely to be incompatible.
