How do I delete apps from the icloud account ?

When I download an old app that used to work perfectly , it no longer works . I was told to delete it from my devise and reload it from the app store but I do not get that option when i search the app. I only get the option to load it from the cloud and it doesn't work once loaded. How can I delete the app from the icloud so as to download the app directly from the app store ?

Downloading it from the cloud is downloading it from the App store.
Your most likely problem is that your iOS is too old to run the App, unless you can update your iOS there is little you can do about this.

    You can't permanently delete any items from your purchase history, all you can do is hide them via your computer's iTunes so that they don't show in the Purchased links for redownloading : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919

  • How can i delete Apps from my iCloud

    I have downloaded some Apps that i didn't like and i deleted them from my IPad. But they are still in the iCloud. How can i delete these from the iCloud?

    If you mean they are in your purchased list in iCloud, this can't be deleted.  The iTunes and App stores keep a record of all your purchases.  If you don't want to see them listed you can hide them if you want, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919.  (Note: you can no longer hide purchases on an iOS device if you are running iOS 6 but you can still hide them on your computer.)

    You cannot.
    The entire point of this is that you can redownload any and all of your past purchases.

  • How to complete delete everything from my icloud account.

    How to complete delete everything from my icloud account. Like brand new.

    First go to Settings>iCloud on your device and confirm that everything is turned to Off, and that you are not syncing any data with iCloud before proceeding.  (If you are, when you delete the data from iCloud it will also be deleted from your device and it will be lost.)  When you turn these off, you will be given the option to keep the data on your device.
    To delete your contacts, go to iCloud.com from your computer, log into your iCloud account and open Contacts, click on All Contacts on the left, to the right click on any single contact to select it, click on the Actions (gear shaped) icon at the bottom left and choose Select All, then press the Delete key on your keyboard.
    For Calendars, open your calendar on icloud.com, click Edit on the bottom left, then tap the minus sign to the right of each calendar to delete it.
    For Notes, open notes on icloud.com, click on each note on the left, then click Delete at the top to delete it.
    For Reminders, open reminders on icloud.com, click on each reminder and press your Delete key to delete it.
    For Mail, open your mail on icloud.com, click each folder on the left (such as your inbox), click on a single message to the right, press Control-A on your keyboard to select them all, then press your Delete key.  Repeat this for each of your mail folders except Trash.  When finished, click on the actions (gear-shaped) icon on the bottom left and select Empty Trash.
    To delete your my photo stream photos, open the album, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap the trash icon. If you want to keep a copy of them on your device, save them to your camera roll first.

  • How do I delete apps from the cloud as well as my device (iPhone 4 and iPad 2)

    I am using an iPhone 4 and an iPad 2.  I want to remove apps from the devices as well as the cloud list. (Not on this i***). Help!

    To delete apps from a device press and hold any of the apps on the device's homescreen and after a couple of seconds or so they should start to shake. Then press the 'x' in the left corner to delete the ones that you don't want, and when you've finished deleting press the home button so as to stop the shaking. If you don't get the 'x' on any of the apps that you've downloaded then check that Settings > General > Restrictions > Deleting Apps isn't set 'off'.

    If you need to permanently delete data from iPhone, My recommendation is iPhone Data Eraser, which can erase all data including contacts, messages, call history, apps, system setting, photo, video, keyboard cache, safari bookmark. Indeed, iPhone Data Eraser worth trusting and it makes the work more effective. What you need is a windows computer. One single click and data deletion finish. In addition, the program also works well with iPad and iPod Touch.

  • HT1977 How do i delete apps from my itunes account?

    Hello,
    Can some one please tell me how to remove apps that i have downloaded in itunes allready?

    If you want to permanently delete them from your account (as if you never had purchased them) do the following: Open iTunes on your Computer you synced the iPad with (or any other computer authorized with the Apple ID you bought the apps with). Got to the Option "Apps" (left hand side, pretty much at the top of the list), then find the app(s) you want to delete, right-click on them and choose delete. Hope this helps. The next time you sync your other devices with your iTunes Library (if you have an other device e.g. iPad) the apps will be permanently deleted from them, too. Hope this helps.
    If you want to just delete them from your device (say iPad/iPhone): Sync your devices with your iTunes LIbrary, select them in the left hand side options bar (under devices...you'll see it), then you will be presented with a summary page of that device. Select Apps (from the options menu at the top of the page) and unselect the App(s) you want to delete from your device. Sync your device again, and you're done.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do I delete contents from my iCloud account  to free- up space

    Recently i replaced my damaged iPhone with a new one. I could restore the contents to new phone. But now I am not able to update the iCloud from my new phone as it says that "Not enough space". This leads to the question - how do i remove all the contents in my iCloud account?
    Also when I login into my iCloud account using PC, I see there are 2 phones shown against my account and I am not able to delete one of them?
    Any tips for both these issues.
    Thanks.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    You can delete contents in your iCloud storage from your device using settings > iCloud > storage & backup > manage storage. Swipe the individual content to the left to reveal the delete button.

  • How do I delete songs from my iCloud account when they don't exist in iTunes?

    I have several songs that showup on my iPhone 4s with the cloud icon and downward pointing arrow.
    1. I've just deleted all songs on my iPhone4s
    2. Only songs with the iCloud icon showup
    3. The songs on my iPhone4S that showup with the iCloud icon don't exist in iTunes
    4. I don't use iTunes Match
    5. I know that I can turn off "Show All Music" in the Music Setting to not show those songs, but I want to delete those songs I no longer have from my i Cloud account.
    How do I delete those songs with the iCloud icon?
    Thank You...

    You can't delete them from iCloud because they aren't stored in your iCloud account (and don't use any of your storage).  They are stored in the iTunes store, and the cloud symbols are links to your previous purchases.  If you don't want to see them, hide them on the purchased list in iTunes on your computer, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919.

  • How do I delete devices from my iCloud account

    I have several old devices that show up for account verification.  I can see them in my account details at settings in iCloud, but don't see a way to delete them.  Is there a way to delete those old devices?

    Did you set up the iPad Mini using a backup of your iPhone? If so, that is why you would see them on the iPad.
    Did you erase the iPhone and sign out of your iCloud account before giving it away? If you did, then the person who now has the iPhone has no access to your iCloud account.
