How do I access an app in the cloud

How do you access an app through iCloud?

The only apps that you can access in the cloud are contacts, reminders, notes, email, and the Apple Pages, Numbers and Keynote apps. You do this by logging into your iCloud.com account on a computer using a web browser.
iCloud is not a storage drive in the cloud. iCloud is for backups of your devices. The way that you "access" an app in iCloud is to download it again in the purchased tab of the App Store.

How can I delete an app from the cloud??

how can I delete an app from the cloud, so nobody can download it again to my phone?? please I tried from the computer but it just hide the app from purchased, and still appears in the app store with the cloud on it

At the present time, you can't hide or delete an app from your purchased list on your phone. Prior to iOS 6 you could hide it; there has never been an option to delete it.

Songs appear to be missing
Songs containing DRM (Digital Rights Management) might not appear in iCloud, or might appear grayed out. This can occur if your computer is not authorized to play that content. Try authorizing your computer, then manually update iTunes Match. To determine what Apple ID your computer needs to be authorized for to play a specific song:
Locate and select the song in your iTunes library.
Choose File > Get Info.
In the Summary tab, locate the Account Name field in the right column. Write it down.
Click OK.
Choose Store > Authorize this Computer.
Type in the account name from the Summary field and enter its password. Click Authorize.
Choose Store > Update iTunes Match.
So long,

How do i remove an app from the cloud so that I can install it fresh again on my iphone5s

How do i remove an app from the cloud so that I can install it fresh again?

Your apps are not stored in your icloud account. You should be able to delete the app from the device using the wiggling icons and tap the X process and then downloading directly to device from the itunes store wirelessly. Don't do it via iTunes on your computer where a copy of the app is stored.

HT4847 My kids have downloaded tons of free games apps from iTunes. I need to free some iCloud space without having to upgrade my account. How do I delete those apps in the cloud?

My kids have downloaded tons of free games apps from iTunes. I need to free some iCloud space without having to upgrade my account. How do I delete those apps in the cloud?

Apps can't be deleted from iCloud as they only reside in the App store. Also, the apps themselves aren't taking up space in your iCloud account. They only thing in your iCloud account would be the app data that is backed up as part of their iCloud backup, but this generally doesn't use much space. You can check how much is being used, and eliminate specific apps from being included in the backup, by going to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage on their device, tapping the name of their device under Backups, then checking the apps listed under Backup Options (tap Show All Apps to see them all). Turn an app to Off to exclude its app data from being backed up.

How do I remove an app from the cloud

How do I remove an app from the cloud

Hi Shawn,
Since posting I too have seen all the discussion.
I have found a way to get around my problem.
The problem is that my 11 year old daughter has one of our old 3GS's as her first phone ready for going to her new school. She shares my iTunes account and can therefore see my purchased history on her iPhone. To stop her seeing any Apps in the cloud or films using home share which are not suitable for her 11 years I have enabled restriction on her phone and set the age limit. This works well as all the adult rated Apps, mainly games, do not show up in the purchase history on her phone.
Regards
Paul

How do i delete unused apps in the cloud that i no longer use or want

pleae help me with deleteing apps in the cloud i no longer use or want.

You can't, you can only hide them. You can't delete them because they aren't stored in your personal iCloud account (and don't use any of your storage). Those are links to your previously purchased apps in the App store so you can redownload them. You can, however, hide them so they won't appear on your purchased list by hiding them in iTunes on your computer as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919.

How do I move an App from the cloud to my iPad?

I downloaded an App (Houston Chronicle for iPad) and somehow I placed it on the Cloud instead of on my iPad. How do I move the App to my iPad?

BTW, your apps remain in the "cloud" regardless of if you think you "moved" them. You cannot delete them from the cloud. They will remain there until:
1. Apple removes it from the App Store for some reason
2. The developer chooses to have it removed from the App Store for some reason

How do I upload IPAD apps to the cloud so I have more room on my IPAD?

How do I upload apps from my IPAD 2 to the cloud so I have more space on my IPAD?

If you are running out of space on your Device... You need to Delete Content from your iDevice...
Goto... Settings > General > Usage > Storage = Then Delete Content...
See Here > http://osxdaily.com/2013/07/24/remove-data-storage-iphone-ipad/
Note:
Purchasing more Storage on iCloud will not increase the Storage Capacity of your iDevice.

How do I delete old apps from the cloud that I have downloaded

I have many old apps that I have deleted from my iPhone and iTunes but are still in the cloud.
I no longer need these apps and would like to have them completely deleted.
Can anyone point me in the right direction please?
many thanks.

Hi DouglasNelson,
I don't know with which system you're working.
My iTunes 12.1.1.4 is working on Windows 7.
I hover over movies and TV-shows in the purchase list, there is always a grey X in a circle on the left corner above to remove it for ever.
I hover over the deleted apps in the "not on your iPhone" and there's no grey X in a circle in the left corner above.
So I decide to just click there where the grey X in a circle in the left corner above should be and
it disappeared.
No unwanted Apps anymore. No Hiding. A w a y.
Cheers
Mark

HT2729 how can I access music downloaded in the cloud that I want to remove ? It only appears to hide it.

When I select the music I wan to remove the only option is to hide it. Please tell me if there is a way to login to the cloud so I can remove it there.
Thanks!

See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919. Also make sure in Settings>iTunes & App Store that Music is on under Show All.

I don't own any Apple devices. I used to though. How do I access my music in the cloud?

The dilema is in the title. I don't own any Apple devices. I used to though. I owned a nano I bought music for through iTunes. But now I own an Android, and a PC. But I'd still like to access and listen to my previously purchased music that I bought through iTunes. However, I can't access the iCloud. I downloaded the iCloud Control Panel for PC. It asks me to sign in with my Apple ID. But when I try to sign in, it says I'm not signed up for the iCloud. But there isn't anywhere to sign up online! Unless I just haven't found it yet. I can't find anywhere to sign up online or in iTunes. The lack of tech support and the difficulty of use is precisely why I switched to Android and PC. I just want the music I PURCHASED.
