Before you delete, find out if you'll be able to download the app you deleted again (it depends on where you live).
Launch iTunes.
From the Library pop-up menu, choose Apps.
Click the app you want to delete.
Press the Delete on your keyboard.

How can I remove apps from my iPad

How can I remove apps from my iPad? It does not have the little "x" option on the iPad like the iPhones.

It works just the same as an iPhone. A long hold on an icon will cause them all to start wobbling, drag to move around or tap the X to remove.You can't remove any of the built-in apps so these won't get an X to tap.

How can I remove apps from my iPhone 5 home page?

Tap and hold an app until they all start to wiggle, then tap the black "x" on the apps you want to delete from your phone, or drag them to the edge of the screen if you want to move them to another screen rather than deleting them. Finish by tapping the home button.

Thanks Vic

You can't remove apps from the purchased list. It's impossible. You can hide them but not delete them from the purchased list.
Tap and hold down on the app icon until it wiggles then tap the X on the icon to delete it, tap the home button to stop apps from wiggling.

How can you remove apps songs from i cloud account

Welcome to the Apple community.
The apps are not actually in your iCloud storage, they are links to the apps in the App Store. What you are seeing is your purchase history and as such cannot be deleted.
You can however hide your purchases, which you can do from the QuickLinks > Purchased option from the main page in the iTunes Store on your computer.

HT201304 Can I remove apps from my purchase list

Can I remove apps from my purchase list..?

No. You can hide them from the Purchases section of the iTunes Store through iTunes on a computer (or your iPad if it's still running iOS 5):

but there's no way to remove apps permanently, nor can they be removed nor hidden in the Purchase History.

Can't remove apps from ipad mini

I touch an icon and keep holding but all apps’ icons won't start wiggling and displaying little white “x” sign in the small black circle at the top left corner.
I can't remove apps or rearrange icons.
Any advice.

Is there anything I can do about it (except buying new one)?
Do you know, is there any other limitation with Demo iPad?

Can't remove App Icon

I'm brand new to iPad (don't even have a smart phone).
One of the Apps I tried to download didn't work or finish.
The icon says "waiting" and it's a blank box. I can't remove it.
Any ideas?
Thanks for any help you can give.

I encountered similar problem too. Turning off and on doesn't solve it.
You mentioned about resetting. IS it just a re-boot or a hard reset (where the phone restore to factory settings)? Is a re-boot different from turning off and on the iPad?

If you turn off the iPad (press sleep/wake button until power down slider appears) and restart it the wayward icon should go away.
You may also be able to eliminate the icon by resetting the iPad (press sleep/wake button and the home button simultaneously until the Apple logo appears).

How can I remove app updates in iTunes?

I have an old Iphone 3G, version 4.2.1
Playing in iTunes, I have downloaded some updates i didn't needed, synced, and now, my updated apps are not compatible anymore with my iOs.
(apps like Facebook, Whatsapp, both purchased or freeware)
So, my question is: how can I remove the updates that made some apps not compatible anymore with my software?
Also, is there any possibility to transfer my iPhone contacts to my sim card?
Many thanks in advance!
Andra

"how can I remove the updates that made some apps not compatible anymore with my software?"
You cannot
"Also, is there any possibility to transfer my iPhone contacts to my sim card?"
No. Iphone stores nothing to SIM. You should be syncing contacts to your computer.

Can you remove apps from the icloud?

I want to remove some of my apps from the icloud but I don't know if one can even do this.

You can hide them in your purchase history. You can not delete them. The purchase history is a permanent record of what you've purchased.

Can't remove apps from my 5s when its plugged into itunes

So I did try to search before so that this wouldn't be a duplicate. I know how to close open apps. Thats not the question. I have a ton of apps. And now I'm cleaning up my phone and want to take apps off my phone that I no longer use. Except I can't do it on this phone. I switched from my 4 about two weeks ago. Since the "x" didn't pop up on apps anymore, I knew that I could connect my phone to ituens and in the iphone screen remove/install apps as I pleased then sync to apply changes.
When I try to do that on this phone, it shows the install button for all the apps that I don't have on my phone. But for all the one currently installed the "remove" button is grayed out. I can't click it. Holding the apps on my phone makes them jiggle, but there is no "x" to remove them.
Anyone have any ideas whats going on?
Thanks

So simple. Yet I didn't explore that deep. Assumed it was like my old phone. My bad. Thanks.
