Deleted apps keep showing up on iPhone again [after unselecting in iTunes]

Hi,
I've bought some apps I decided that I don't want on my iphone, so I deleted them.
After syncing with iTunes, they appeared on the phone again, so I followed advice here and unchecked the individual apps from the Sync Applications screen in iTunes -- which is set to sync Selected Applications.
A few days later, I plug the phone in again and all the unchecked apps show up on my iPhone again. This keeps happening. Is there a way to get rid of these unwanted apps without deleting them from iTunes?

I posted this on another thread and thought I would add it here too...
I have figure out what is causing this issue I believe. I have a macbook pro which I use to sync my iPhone. I also have a Mac Pro that I will occasionally hook my iphone up too so it can charge. I have my phone set NOT to automatically sync for this reason. However when I plug it into either machine the sync comes up for some reason and normally does once for a longer period and then again yet if you look in iTunes it doesn't show that it's synching. I use to always cancel it because I was afraid it would mess up my phone. I one day decided... I wonder if that's what's causing the application issue. so I stopped canceling it and just letting it do it's thing and I didn't have the issue. Well one day I accidentally canceled it because someone sent me a text and I wasn't paying attention... and guess what? I had the issue with all the applications wanting to be put back on the phone!!!

  • Deleted emails keep showing up on Iphone as new emails

    Recently I have been having some trouble with my email on my iPhone. Emails that I have deleted keep showing up in my inbox as new emails. It's random too. Sometimes it's 2 emails and sometimes it's 25. Its getting kind of annoying. I even tried deleting everything in the trash folder. Any suggestions?

    That's happening to me, too. Apparently, it's a problem with the update. I have been talking with an apple tech supervisor. he is nice, but has no suggestions. i went to the "genus" bar at the apple store. The "genus" there said to live with it, get a new phone, or just wait for a patch--which he admitted may never happen.
    I have gone to my email acct. and i delete all the messages in it twice a day. it's a pain, but it keeps all of those messages coming through. have you found a solution?

  • Deleted songs keep showing up on iPhone 5c

    So I finally did a rehaul of my music on my iphone. I had erased all the music and manually added 270 songs to my phone. Only problem is 65 songs that I did NOT want on my phone keep showing up... and some aren't even on my computer in my itunes! When I plug in my phone to sync and manually delete the songs, they aren't there, yet they still are on my phone. These songs are NOT in my cloud, and cannot be manually deleted on my iphone 5c. I am running on iOS 7.1.1. Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi Paul_ie86,
    Try cleaning up your player. Boot the ZEN X-Fi from the recovery mode (instructions can be found here) and select Clean Up->Reboot. See if that helps.
    Btw, welcome to Creative forums!

    I deleted all my music to get rid of this album that I purchased on my phone. It has been added twice but it keeps showing up everytime I plug it into itunes. It is not on my phone. It just keeps the grayed out circles but never ads it. Any suggestions on how to permanetly delete it?

  • Windows Phone 8.1 app keep showing the old version update after the latest one

    Recently I just update my app named "TimeKit" (v1.2.2.0), then I start notices that some of the phone will get the old version(v1.2.1.8) update detail on the store, even I try to check from the windows phone website, but it will switch between
    the latest version(v1.2.2.0) and old version sometimes, but some of the phone will be fine after a few times(not sure). My own phone always get this problem, not only my own app, also for others app, one of the app was the "Lumia Camera", so
    I decided to reset my phone, after reset all the problems are gone, but the same problem appeared to my app again. Also I update another update for my app(v1.2.2.3), still the same. Is it a problem for the store in US region currently, because I try for
    others country and works fine.

    I can take a couple of days for the update to replicate across all the servers.

    Tap and hold an app until they all start jiggling and an X appears in the icon's top left corner. One by one tap the X to delete the app. when they are all gone you are free to buy them again with your own account.

  • Why i keep seeing email on iphone, even after i deleted it directly from the server?

    Why i keep seeing email on iphone, even after i deleted it directly from the server?
    This means it doesnt sync the server inbox, only keeps pushing new emails!
    How to force it to realy sync every time the server inbox, and just show me in the iphone inbox exactly what i see in the server inbox???

    I'm just fresh in iOS, but dont think its a POP/IMAP matter.
    Always used mobile push email apps on symbian and android with POP and never had this issue.
    My usual former scheme is:
    a) My main email client is Outlook at my laptop (POP). This one is the master email client and after download new emails deletes them at the server.
    b) My secondary is a mobile email client (also POP) - just to see whats going on and maybe reply here and there.
    Meaning, laptop does cut/paste and mobile does copy/paste
    So:
    a) If i download a new email first using my laptop, it will never be pushed latter from iphone (its not there anymore).
    b) If i download a new email first using my mobile app, and only then download it with laptop, it is still there available, and then gets deleted at the server.
    c) If i download a new email first using my mobile app and if i manualy delete it and then perform another sync, then this email is deleted at server, and will be no more available for download to laptop.
    Resuming:
    1- The laptop ask to server what's in the inbox, downloads it all and then order the server to kill them all.
    2- The iphone only ask whats new and downloads it all.
    3- The iphone SHOULD ask server what's new, AND ask server what was removed from server inbox since last sync, AND tell server wich emails were removed at iphone since last sync.
    As far i remember, at least one symbian app called Profimail does all this quite perfectly...
    Any ideas?

  • Twitter App keeps showing badge

    I've got a problem with my Twitter app on my Iphone 5c - it's updated.
    My Twitter app keeps showing a notification badge on the Twitter app, even when I have no notifications.
    I've messed around with the notification settings, removed my account and added it again
    And it still has a badge saying I have 4 , 5 or 8 notifications
    How do I repair this?

    Well, the standard troubleshooting steps for the iPhone are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new. If nothing changes after that, then you will need to work with Twitter.

  • Deleted ringtones keep showing up under my device in iTunes

    For the past few months, there are 3 ringtones that I purchased on my iPhone, but later deleted, that keep showing back up under my device in iTunes.  They are greyed out and won't transfer to iTunes, but also keep coming back after I re-delete.  How do I either prevent them from showing up again or just get them to transfer over to iTunes and be done with it?  I know this sounds really convoluted, but it's the best way I know how to describe it.  I manually manage my music, video and ringtones, so I don't know why they keep trying to sync over.  I really don't want to check the sync ringtones box because it will them remove all of my music and video and try to sync all of those from my itunes as well.  My computer is a Mac running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.  Thanks for any help you can provide.

    I just posted this problem as well. I can not remove the books on my Iphone 5 either.

  • So I know now that upgrading to 5.0 took away the page icon at top of iPad. But strangely enough it still shows up on iPhone 4 after upgrading. Anyone know why

    So I know now that upgrading to 5.0 took away the page icon at top of iPad. But strangely enough it still shows up on iPhone 4 after upgrading. Anyone know why

    So how can I get it back to where there is a seperate visual thumbnail page of tabs. This new tabs on the top is a big mistake in my opinion. Many times while on a website I have accidentally hit one of the other tabs at the top of the screen and all the sudden I am on a page that was previously open. This new tabs at the top also made the menu bar deeper to accomodate everything that should be on a seperate page like it used to be. It was really great, and not something that had to be improved upon. So is there a way to get the tabs back to where they should be?

    When you synced in iTunes did you select your phone in devices on t left column and then click on tones int eh window on the right.  When you synced did you tick all tones and tick sync and then click sync at the bottom of the window on the right?  Was the ton ein the tones folder in the library folder?

  • Deleted picture keeps showing up in photo preview of camera

    Okay so I took a picture on my phone with the camera from the lock screen. When I tried to view it it gave me a message that said that there were no photos or videos. So even when I unlocked my phone and checked my albums the picture isn't in any of the albums, but it still shows up in the photo preview in the bottom left hand corner. I've deleted all the pictures that I've taken today and it still shows up in the preview How do I get rid of that picture so it doesn't keep showing up?

    Hi charlbi,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you took a photo from the lock screen that shows in the lower left preview window, but that picture doesn’t show up in any albums in Photos. In this situation, I would suggest resetting your iPhone and checking again. Please let me know if you still see the preview of that picture after the reset. 
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Cheers,
    Joe
