Can not move apps

under mavericks I can not move apps to a new directory with out it turing into an alias.
please let me know how I can fix this.

If they're built-in apps or App Store products, you shouldn't move them. An alias is what you want.

  • I can not move apps to SD card

    Please, help!
    I can not move my apps to SD card storage. When I choose "move to SD card" from Settings>Apps>Move to SD card, the moved app goes to Phone storage (USB storage). I have a 32 GB Kingston SD card but it is useless now because my memory is full and I even can't take pictures, because when I try to it is wriiten "Not enough space"! And I have onle 2 GB of used space on the Internal storage and Phone storage! How can I solve this problem, please!

  • I can not move my apps around like I use to. Even when connected to ITunes.

    Since using the new IOS 7.02 and ITunes I can not move one app from one home page to another. Even when hooked up to the PC.

    Try logging out of your account on the iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store and then log back in and see if it then works.
    If that doesn't solve it then I've also seen suggested going into Settings > General > Date & Time and change the date to a few months in the future and then re-trying

  • Can not move my apps to different screen the usual way on my new iPad 2?!

    Ok got my new iPad love it! But I can not move my apps to condense them to one screen. I know how to do it the way apple suggests but it does not work. Pressing the app until it wiggled then pulling it to the edge will not allow the screen to change and move the app. It just bounces off the side like it hit a wall. I can arrange them and consolidate them the usual way just not move them. So now I have 2 or three apps on 8 pages! I also found that when I synced the iPad with my MacBook Pro it installed all my iPhone apps as well. At first I could not understand why the app looked small then I realized what it did so I deleted all the iPhone apps off the iPad. Any idea why this is occurring?

    Try a System Reset:
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.
    A System Reset does not remove any apps, music, movies, etc. nor does it cause any settings to revert back to default.
    Also, you might wish to download the iPad-2 User Guide. Pay special attention to page 162.
    http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad
    Finally, a less thorough version of the Guide is included as a Safari bookmark and a more thorough version of the Guide can be downloaded at no charge via iBooks.

  • OSX Yosemite: I can not move the icons on my display. They always jump to an other position

    Hello,
    I updated my OS X to Yosemite last week.
    First problem: Since then, I can not update several applications any more. Yestersday, there where 5 updates: iMovie, iPhoto, Keynote, Pages and Numbers. iMovie and iPhoto updates were ok, but for the other 3 I received a message ""Update Unavailable with This Apple ID.This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled"". As far as I know, I was never refunded, or I never cancelled an app that was originating from Apple. I even don't know how to di it !!
    Second problem: I can not move any more the icons on my display. And sometimes thy are moved to an other position after start. For example: the Mackintosh HD and the external Time-Maschine HD were always in the right upper corner on the display. This morning, after starting, they were in the left lower corner!! No way to slide them back to the other side. They always jump back to the lower left.
    HEEELLLPPP !!

    Hello,
    Performance tip: Keep the Desktop clutter-free (empty, if possible) by: Klaus1
    Mac OS X's Desktop is the de facto location for downloaded files, and for many users, in-progress works that will either be organized later or deleted altogether. The desktop can also be gluttonous, however, becoming a catch-all for files that linger indefinitely.
    Unfortunately - aside from the effect of disarray it creates - keeping dozens or hundreds of files on the Desktop can significantly degrade performance. Not necessarily because the system is sluggish with regard to rendering the icons on the desktop and storing them in memory persistently (which may be true in some cases), but more likely because keeping an excessive number of items on the Desktop can cause the windowserver process to generate reams of logfiles, which obviously draws resources away from other system tasks. Each of your icons on your desktop is stored as a window in the window server, not as an alias. The more you have stored, the more strain it puts on the window server. Check your desktop for unnecessary icons and clear them out.
    Keeping as few items as possible on the Desktop can prove a surprisingly effective performance boon. Even creating a single folder on your Desktop and placing all current and future clutter inside, then logging out and back in can provide an immediately noticeable speed boost, particularly for the Finder.
    And it is why Apple invented 'Stacks' for Leopard.
    Keep your Desktop as clutter free as possible!

  • After firmware "upgrade" I can't move apps tp SD card on Ellipsis 8

    The tablet doesn't have very much memory for apps so I put in a 64GB SD card and mioved a lot of apps there.  I recently "upgraded" the firmware/software to version 4.4.2, and now I can't move apps anymore. Not to SD card, SIM card, or anywhere. There isn't enough memory to install the apps I used to have working just fine.  How can I get apps to move to the SD card again?  Has Verizon taken a bad idea and made it worse?

  • Can not update apps after IOS8 update on iPhone 4s

    Can not update apps after IOS8 update on iPhone 4s
    I can no longer update apps on my iPhone 4s after the IOS 8 update. The IOS 8 update took a very long time to complete, maybe 12 hours, and afterwards, it worked but updating packages were very slow. Package updates have since been problematic and about 4 days ago, it stopped being able to update any packages. I click on them to update and they never make any progress. I have 2.8 Gbytes free and I keep deleting more and more packages, pictures, etc. It seems like, from the amount of stuff that I have deleted, I should have more than 2.8 Gbytes free.
    Is anyone else having this kind of problem?

    16GB iPhone4: Go to Settings, scroll down to iTunes & App Stores and touch. At the top of the next page it shows: Apple ID. Touch this. Select Sign Out. Your Apple ID will go away. Re-enter Apple ID and password. Try App Store again.
       Other solutions were to go to Settings:General:Date&Time and turn off auto-update, then change date to next year. This didn't work for me, nor a lot of other users on the forums. It took reading a lot of threads to find the log-out, log-in solution. Even on the official Apple Website all I saw was: Make sure your connection is working, battery is charged, desktop is plugged in when you try to sync. OK I exaggerate, but with all the users posting this problem, you'd think they'd post their solutions when they work with a Tech Help call.

  • TS2446 I just got my Ipad and I can not download apps.  I get a message saying my Apple ID has been disabled.  I have reset my password, I can access itunes and icloud but still can not download apps.  Can someone please tell me how to get my ID activated

    I just got my Ipad and I can not download apps.  I get a message saying my Apple ID has been disabled.  I have reset my password, I can access itunes and icloud but still can not download apps.  Can someone please tell me how to get my ID activated?  TY

    Depending on why it's been disabled you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
    Or you might need to contact Apple : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
    If it then works on your computer's iTunes but not your phone/iPad then try logging out of your account on the phone/iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on it

  • Can not open app store in iPad 3

    why I can not open app store in iPad 3

    IF you get app update notifications, are you able to use the App Store from the Updates Tab? Try closing the App Store and reset your iPad. You will not lose any data.
    In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Next, reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • I can not find "app of the day" from app store on my ipod,how can i find and download it?

    i can not find "app of the day" from app store on my ipod,how can i find and download it?

    It is possible that the app was removed from the App Store. If so you will not be able to get it back, unless you have it downloaded on your computer.
    If you had downloaded it before and it is still in the store, you can go to the App Store app on your iPod and go to the Updates tab. Then you tap on "Purchased" and see if it is available to download from your previous purchases.
    Hope this helps!
