Can You Update Modern Apps without using the Windows Store?

Our corporate image for Windows 8.1 has the Windows Store app disabled. We have started to see some users are getting prompted to update the built-in apps, like the weather app or the video app. When these users attempt to update, they are taken to the Windows
store where they receive a message that states the store has been disabled by the administrator.
We're using SCCM 2012 R2 CU3.  Is it possible to patch these apps through SCCM software updates rather than through the store?  Is it possible to leave the store open for updates, but not for new app downloads?  What can we do?

Hi,
The answer is no, When store app need to be updated, it would download a full new version package of the APP, install and replace the old ap. This process do need to login Windows Store to finish the job.

  • Can i create apple id without use the credit card?

    can i create apple id without use the credit card?

    I'm getting the same thing. I created a new Apple ID via the Internet (appleid.apple.com) When I go to my device to try to use it, I have to review it first and in that process, I'm asked for a credit card or iTunes gift card. There is NO 'none' option.
    I work in a school district and we'd like employees to use their own apple ID for free apps which will allow them the freedom to explore apps without weighing down our tech dept with myriad requests for random apps. I deal with a broad demographic and many users are suspicious of putting personal credit card info on an Internet-based account.
    However, it appears they are locked out of the store unless they have some form of payment on file. Even if they enter a gift card, what happens when it's used up? Will they get locked out of the store if they don't have a balance?
    Anyone have a work around? If not ... APPLE Please update your support materials to explain this, or fix the bug.
    Thanks!

  • How can you delete an app without losing saved data/progress?

    How can you delete an app without losing saved data/progress? Is there a way through iCloud? I have an 8gb 4th gen iPod touch. I have a lot of music, so with 8gb, space is limited. Some apps I have take up 20-30 MB. Some of these games I don't play that much, but I don't delete them because I have made a lot of progress (levels, scores, acheivements). It would be nice to delete some of these 30 MB apps that take up precious space, and them redownload them in the future when I have more space, but without having to start the whole game over.
    Also, I read somewhere that there might be a way to do this with iCloud, but I don't really know how.
    Thanks!

    This is the only way I know of.  It is messy though.

  • TS1702 how can you update your apps on the itune page like you use to with the old itunes

    How can I update my apps on the new itunes?  On the previuos itunes i was able to update them won the computer the sync my phone - i can not locate the update notifacation area on this new itunes program

    With iTunes 11 you can enable the left-hand sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC. You should then be able to sleect the Apps section of your library on that left-hand sidebar, click the 'Check For Updates' button at the bottom of it and download any available updates. Then connect your phone and select it on the sidebar, select its Apps tab on the right-hand side of iTunes, and click the Sync button at the bottom of it - that should copy any app updates over to it

  • HT201303 Can't update free app without putting credit card information? Why?

    Cannot update free app without updating my credit card information! Says I am using new device to connect with app store ? This is not true as I'm using and have always been using my I phone. And why do I need to provide credit card info for free app?

    Change your payment information to none on your iphone, goto settings > store  , tap on your apple ID , tap view account , tap payment type , change to none.
    This is all provided that you don't owe itunes any monies, if so then attach a credit card or itunes gift card and pay your arrears.
    Free app or paid app, you will not be able to use your apple id until you settle one of the above.

    It is not possible to accomplish this with the Muse's Form Widgets. You may need to look for other online solutions and fetch the source code and add to the Muse page using the Insert HTML feature.

  • Can I update my phone without changing the interface/design?

    I haven't updated my iPhone 4S in ages - I think I may still be using IOS 4 or IOS 5. I love the old interface, and I really, really don't want to have to change to the new interface (I've seen it and it looks completely different). I'm very fond of how safari works, how pass code locking works, how photo albums are designed, the proccess of clearing apps - everything. The problem is that there are a few apps I'd like to download that require IOS 6 or above. My question now is either,
    1) is it possible to update your phone without changing the design/interface
    2) is it possible to download IOS 6 or 7 apps on an earlier version phone without updating the entire phone
    Thanks so much

    1. No.
    2. No.

  • Can I update Java patches without uploading the SCAs

    There is no FTP service on the HP-UX.  User root is not available for me.
    With user <sid>adm, can I apply Java patches without uploading the SCAs?

    Why can't you use third party tools to copy the files to your *nix server?
    You can use WinSCP software to copy the files from your desktop to your *nix server (Even FTP not avilable, it use SFTP).

  • How can i find my ipod without using the app

    i lost my ipod and i dont know where it is. i dont own a iphone to use the finding app. what can i do?

    The "finding app" or iphone has nothing to do with it.
    IF you set up find my ipod on the ipod itself AND it is on AND it is connected to wi-fi AND it has not been found and restored, then you may be able to get an aproximate stree address using icloud.com.
    Otherwise, you annot track it.

  • How can you find your password to use the App Store on an iPhone?

    My friend has forgotten her password for the App Store.
    Her account is her email address.
    How can she either get her password or create a new one in order to use the App Store?

    I think I tried this last night but will attempt it again.
    I was tired after talking with an AT&T technical representative about a voicemail issue.
    I hope her voicemail is still accessible today.
    I asked the AT&T person to remove the voicemail password.

  • Can you update CS6 apps if you have the CC apps installed too?

    I saw the Creative cloud menu item with 8 updates for the CS6 apps I left installed after downloading the CC versions. I get errors when trying to update the CS6 apps. Are you not abile to have both CC and CS6 installed?

    This has nothing to do with any of that. these are simpyl bugs/ issues/ conflicts. Run the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool, let CC App reinstall CS6, run the updates, then install CC - or, to save your sanity, just leave it alone, if you don't need any of the nehancments and fixes from the updates.
