How can I force an app to re-sync/update without removing it.

I am developing an app for the iPhone using Flash CS5.5
Everything time I publish the ipa, I have to remove it from the phone and then re-add it, thus deleting any save information on the phone.
Is there is a way I can get iTunes to "update" the application without having to first remove it? The version in the application as of now is 0.0.x and I update the x every time I publish, but iTunes doesn't seem to care if the version on the phone is older than the one in the library.

I don't believe that there is, but things may be different when working with the developer tools. I'd suggest you ask in the developer forums, either here or available to you as part of your developer program membership; you'll be more likely to find a workaround there.

  • How can I stop my Apps from being automatically updated on my iPad2?

    How can I stopy my Apps from being automatically updated on my iPad2? I have an extremely slow wi-fi at work and my iPad Apps appear to be frozen as they are waiting to be updated. Help!

    In iTunes use the File menu "Transfer purchases from..." item. Ordinarily you will get a warning to do this before an update. Presumably your computer is authorized to use your account and it is the computer to which you normally sync your iPod?

  • How Can I get my bookmarks From My Sync account without my sync key after a hard drive crash?

    My Computer Hard Drive crashed before I could back up my Sync Key or add another device. How can I get My bookmarks from my sync account without resetting the sync key and wiping my data?

    Not from Mozilla. Nobody knows your Sync Key except for you. <br />
    Is that hard drive usable at all? Like as an external disk in a USB hard drive enclosure?
    If so, you can recover your Firefox data from that drive. <br />

  • I reinstalled my OS and now it wants to empty my phone.  How can I get it to back up my phone without removing the data?

    I reinstalled my OS and now it wants to empty my phone.  How can I get it to back up my phone without removing the data?

    You can't. But if you backed up your computer prior to wiping it out, you should be able to restore your iTunes library, contacts, photos, etc. from that backup. Once you do, you can set the phone up again and just sync everything from your library back to it.
    If you didn't back the computer up either, you can transfer items purchased on the phone into iTunes, and if you set up at least one contact in whatever application you sync your contacts to on the computer, it will offer to merge the address books on the first sync, saving those.  Any media you'd acquired from sources other than the iTunes store will have to be re-downloaded from the source or re-ripped.
    The iPhone is NOT a backup device.

  • How can I force an app install in App Store, or otherwise get App Store in a consistent state?

    I've recently reinstalled OS X Mountain Lion on a laptop (completely and thoroughly erased the partitions of the previous installation), and on this freshly created system, after I sign in to the App Store (to download previous purchases), the system behaves as if packages are already installed - which they are not!
    Under the Purchases tab, packages (such as Xcode or other previous purchases) are showing with a greyed out "INSTALLED" button on the right.  Other packages (which have not been installed) are showing with a (pressable) button of "UPDATE".  (For example, iPhoto has a newer version in Mavericks; it seems always possible to click on UPDATE and be prompted to install the latest version for Mountain Lion -- even though that process can be infinitely repeated).  But iPhoto (along with any other packages) has not been installed to the host yet.  /Applications/iPhoto.app and any others are not showing at all on the system, but App Store still believes that they're installed already (preventing a real install, or pretending that an upgrade is an upgrade and not an install).  There are some packages which DO say "INSTALL".  Those are the ones that I have never installed before on the laptop.  So it appears to be possible to still install some packages - but that's the set that I do not want to install.  So for example, now I can't seem to install Xcode or iPhoto or any other previously purchased applications.  It seems pretty clear that there are some bugs here.  But I am concerned about the source of the association - how is OS X determining that THOSE packages are "installed already", but others are not?  Is the upstream App Store server keeping track of machine ID to make this determination?  I heard at one point that App Store uses Spotlight internally - is it somehow querying that?  Finally I wanted to confirm that this is really a complete reinstall.  I set /dev/zero to the first few sectors of the raw hard drive in order to ensure that I could make a few partiiton table, and when I then reinstalled the system, I chose a different partition arrangement.  I have no other drives connected.  So it's truly a reinstall of the OS from scratch, and at the moment I can't see a clear way to install apps!  I also had killed the App Store agent running in the background, moved away App Store related files in ~/Library/Caches/ and started again.  Yet I get the exact same response.  This is concerning from a privacy perspective too.  Suppose the App Store server is encoding the list of installed packages and associating it with the host and then perhaps I sell the laptop.  Now the list of apps may be available to a new user of the laptop.  But it may only show if the same Apple ID is used.
    In any case, I'd like to know how I can best move past this issue, workaround it, and install packages.  Can I force an app to install, even if it's believed to be installed already?  Can I attempt to do an "uninstall"?  Any suggestions about this would be greatly appreciated.

    i also have a very similar problem my mac crashed due to a dodgy hard drive which has now been upgraded and snow leopard reinstalled and i cannot re install my purchased apps which is a pain in the back side any help please

  • How can I search different App Stores on the iPad without creating accounts for them?

    I'm doing some research on the contents of different App Stores, and the only search feature that gives me all the data I need is the iPad store under iOS 5 or earlier. However, I cannot search a different store without creating an account and signing in, and to create an account I have to have a billing address in that store's country. iTunes on my Mac will let me search various stores without signing in (as long as I don't try to download), but iTunes doesn't give me all the information I need. Does anyone have any ideas for using iPad to search different stores without signing in?
    Thanks!

    This will make a permanent change to the store location for that ID (at least, until I change it back). That *may* be useful (I won't know for a few hours because I don't have the iPad with me right now), but it's not what I want. Within the App Store I want to search a different store without having to sign in. I can do this easily enough in iTunes on my MBP and would really like to do it on the iPad too (because the iTunes app search doesn't give me all the info I need).
    Thanks for the idea; stay tuned. I'll get back to you as soon as I get the chance to try it.

  • How can I turn off apps that automatically sync?

    Whenever I try to move music from itunes to my ipad mini it says it is over memory.  I can see the music on the ipad but it is grey and will not play.  I have tried to delete apps (which are taking up most of my memory) I do not want but it keeps putting them back on.  I have turned off the 'sync automatically' button on the preferences and devices in itunes.  I have unclicked the 'will install' on the apps section on itunes.  I have synced repeatidly and whenever I click the sync button the things I have just clicked on suddenly become 'will install' again. 
    I only want to move some music across from itunes but it won't even let me do that. 
    PLEASE HELP I AM GOING CRAZY!!

    Yes i did that, but when i went back to my home screen all the applications that i've choose to not using data just automatically activate themselves.... ><

  • How can I force Acrobat Pro XI to install updates automatically?

    It defaults to download and ask and I've found a number of ways to prevent the install from happening at all, but nothing to force automatic updates.  I'd prefer a public property within the MSI, but it seems only reader has that capability.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • How to install apps purchased from itunes 11 without removing old apps installed from ipod touch?

    I recently purchased apps from the app store using my computer (through itunes) and I cannot sync those apps to my ipod touch. Whenever I try to sync those apps I got from itunes, it automatically removes the apps I downloaded directly on my ipod touch. How can I install the apps I got from itunes without removing the apps I downloaded directly on my ipod touch? I hope my question is clear and I hope someone can help me Thanks in advance!

    I already use the "Transfer Purchases" function in itunes and sync. And then what happened was when I try to click on "install" on an app I got from the computer, I can see the summary bar of my ipod's memory move. For example, my ipod has 3.23 gb remaining memory and then I try to click on "install" on 1 app then suddenly it moves to 5.21 gb remaining memory.

  • How can I force-install iOs5/6 apps on my iPod Touch?

    Hi, I have an iPod touch version 4.3.5 (ML1). Model is MC540C.
    The App Store sometimes bars me from installing apps because the app has a minimum requirement of iOS 5 or 6. How can I force my iPod to install these apps anyway?

    No, it is more than the screen dimension.
    You have a 4G iPod, why not update?
    To update:
    iOS 4: Updating your device to iOS 5 or later
    You need iTunes 10.7 or later on the computer
