How can i delete app data on iPhone without uninstalling the app?

How can i delete app data on iPhone 4 without removing the application.     Facebook application size -57mb. And its app data is 70mb  

This is ridiculous!
Imagine this scenario, can't be that unlikely:
I'm going away on holiday, or away on work for a while, and I'm not taking the computer to which I sync my phone. Before I leave I fill my iPhone up with music to take with me. While I'm travelling I want to install a new app, but I don't have space. I look to delete content from the phone - I can delete podcasts but not music. Unfortunately I don't have enough podcasts to free up space that way. So I don't purchase the app I wanted.
This is bad for:
1. The user (me)
2. The app developer - lost download.
3. Apple - they lose their cut of the app download, and royally p#@* off a user.
Can someone explain to me why this limitation is good for anyone?!

  • How can I delete contacts on my iPhone without having to go into each one to do it?

    I delete contacts on my iPhone without having to go into each one to do it?

    Yeah you can only do all with itunes.
    On the phone itself you can only delete one at a time.
    Go to the contact, choose edit, scroll down, at the bottom is a delete option.

    Willy, the procdedure you describe works perfectly for AppleTV G1. In fact, I frequently play DTS music discs ripped to my iTunes library as Apple Lossless (ALAC) and synched to the ATV. What happens is that, as far as iTunes and the ATV are concerned, a conventional stereo 16/44 audio file is being played; however my reciever detects the DTS data stream, and instead of outputting static, it decodes the 5.1 channels correctly. This process parallels the way DTS discs were designed to be played back: a conventional CD player is connceted, via digital out, to a DTS-aware reciever/pre-amp and the two channels of static are recognized as 6 channels of DTS-encoded audio.
    However this process will only work if the player (CD, ATV, PC, etc.) sends a "bit-perfect" 16 bit/44.1 khz data stream to the decoding device. In the case of ATV G2 and G3, as has been discussed elsewhere, the unit resmaples all audio - including 16/44 PCM (Redbook CD)  - to 16/48. While this is not a big deal for conventional audio CDs, MP3s, and AAC files, it mangles the fragile DTS datastream and renders it undecodable. The resulting static that you hear is just like the static you would hear if you played a DTS CD on a non-DTS capable system.
    Sadly, I'm not aware of any easy way around this. You could use a program like Foobar (and the DTS plugin) to convert your DTS CDs to 6-ch .wav or .flac file. From there you could transcode the file to AC-3 and then mux it into a video container that ATV supports. You may need add a dummy video track, for iTunes/AppleTV to be ok with the file, though I'm not sure. This may be a lot of work.
    Sorry for the bad news. I wish that the iTunes/ATV ecosystem had better multi-channel audio support.

  • Help! How can I delete mail on my iPhone without it deleting on my Mac?

    hey everybody!
    so, i used to be able to delete e-mails on my iphone (through my gmail account) without having them get deleted from my inbox on my mac's mail app. however, lately, this is not the case. i would like to be able to delete certain messages so that they won't have to stay on my phone but i still need them on my mac.
    does anyone have any solutions to this problem?
    thanks!

    I need the same answer applicable to Microsoft Exchange on a pc. When deleting email from the iphone it is deleting it from everywhere. I need it to stay on the laptop so that the laptop "controls". I just switched over from a blackberry and there was a email control function where you could tell the berry to defer to the laptop when deleting.
    I also having an issue in that my "sent" emails are not appearing on the laptop - anywhere. I cannot find a location to alter this.
    Please advise and thank you.

  • How can I transfer songs from my iPhone without wiping the iPhone?

    I have two computers. My original is a basic Dell that's really getting old and the other is a new one I custom built a year ago. My first computer, which I had all my iTunes stuff on, has started dying so I've decided to transfer all my music and iTunes over to the new computer. I transfered all my songs from iTunes over to the new computer (after re-downloading iTunes) and then popped in my iPhone.
    The issue is this: the new iTunes library is missing 200 songs that my iPhone has. Well, whatever, I figured I'd just sync it. But if I sync from my phone to the new computer it wipes out my phone and gives me the stuff in iTunes, so then I'm out 200 songs. So I tried hitting "Manually Sync this phone". Same thing, if I try and hit apply it says it'll wipe out my phone because it's already synced to the old computer.
    Is there a way to un-sync my phone from the old computer, or a way that I can move my music from the phone over to the new computer without wiping it?

    iPhone Data Transfer is another choice which lets you copy sms, contacts, notes, bookmarks, songs, vidoes, photos and call log etc from old iPhone 3GS/4/4S/5 to your new iPhone 5S or iPhone 5S.
    Most important is these data will be merged perfectly on your new iPhone. No data loss worry.
    Best luck!

    How can I play podcasts on my iphone without using data?

    I used to sync my podcasts to my phone individually, but found out that the Podcast app works better for me.  It continously downloads the podcasts (not really sure when, that's the only thing, when its downloading it may use data depending on where you are) and also deletes the ones i have listened to.  Hopefully that will help you out!

  • How can I delete old data in citadel

    How can I delete old data from Citadel so that HDD is not full when data is continously being logged in the database ?

    Hi there,
    I could see different possible ways to limit the database size on a LabVIEW DSC system.
    a) You could limit the lifespan of your logged data to a certain time by adjusting the option 'Days to keep historical data' in the Tag Configuration Editor>Configure>Historical... tab.
    b) You could use the Citadel Database VIs. Archive Database.vi would allow you to archive a database or a part (certain traces/tags, or certain time interval) to another location. With the archive option 'destructive', it would delete the source of the data from the original database.
    Delete Traces.vi would delete a traces from a database.
    c) The same/similar functionality you can have throught the Measurement and Automation Explorer and its Historical Data Viewer plug-in
    b) and c) are NEW features of LabVIEW DSC 6.1!
    Hope this helps
    Roland
    PS: There is a nice link about archiving Citadel on ni.com :

  • HI, I need your help. How can I delete all data, when I do not have the special security code, which I didn´t remember ? I also think, that I never create this code before. But I cannot put my settings back.

    HI, I need your help. How can I delete all data, when I do not have the special security code, which I didn´t remember ? I also think, that I never create this code before. But I cannot put my settings back.

    You must remember the code, if you can't then take the phone and proof of purchase to an Apple Store.

    I bought a used iPhone and found him email iCloud does not affect me so how can I deleted this email in order to use the device freely and privacy
    help me please

    You can't. Return the phone for a refund, if you can, because without the previous owner's Apple ID/Password, you will not be able to re-activate the phone. It will be useless to you.
    Apple can't/won't help you with this.

  • HT201302 how can i delete photos from my iphone after uploading in Iphoto even if i say not to keep on phone

    how can i delete photos from my iphone after uploading in Iphoto even if i say not to keep on phone

    Hello paolo@spring,
    Just as photos that were taken more than 30 days ago remain on your MacBook Air, so will photos that are deleted from your iPhone.
    Photos in My Photo Stream are saved on the iCloud server for 30 days.
    Because your Mac and PC have more storage than your iOS devices, you can choose to download all of your My Photo Stream photos automatically.
    In iPhoto or Aperture preferences on your Mac, select Photos (or Photo Stream) > My Photo Stream > Automatic Import. All of your photo stream photos will import into your Events, Projects, Photos, Faces, and Places folders in iPhoto or Aperture.

    any idea?

    You would have to restore you device as if new. If you restore a backup then you simply bring back the issue. However, it's normal to have an Other shown, but it should not be excessively large - under 2 or 3 GBs on an iPhone 4S, I believe.
