How do I delete apps on iCloud?

I want to erase the apps from iCloud.

You can't delete them from your purchased list.  You can hide them in iTunes as discussed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919, but not on your phone running iOS 6.  Also, they aren't stored in your account, they are in the iTunes and App stores.  iCloud only keeps track of the apps and other media that you have purchased.

    How do I delete apps from iCloud?

    You can't at this time. Apple FAILED to permit iCloud user with  ability to delete programs that you deleted from your iPad/iPhone  devices.  As great iCloud is just know that if you download an app and don't like it you stuck with it in the cloud dispute you deleting it from your device.
    APPLE, WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO FIX THIS? At least make it a belated Christmas gift to you fellow Apple clients. PLEEEEEEASSSSSSE! Thank you!

  • How do I delete apps from iCloud?

    I have a corrupted app on iCloud which syncs with my other devices. I cannot delete it in order to get an updated version. How do I accomplish that?
    Arpenguy

    This is crazy! I had two "Sexual" apps downloaded and I have no idea how. I am totally against it and angry that all I can do is hide it! It is not something that I want associated with me. I downloaded a few "free" apps yesterday and then all of a sudden I was seeing those apps in my list. I am so angry I feel like throwning ALL of my APPLE crap out the window! Computer - iPad2 - iPhone4s - iPods multiple!
    I am very dissapointed in this sorry answer! I want to be able to contact the creators of the apps too. There is NO way anyone downloaded them as it would have to be ME...PLEASE add the functionality, for crying out loud!!!

  • How do i delete an old iCloud account from phone when I forget my password and I'm not able to reset it because my security questions do not match?! Help!! Currently not able to update any apps or icloud info

    How do i delete an old iCloud account from phone when I forget my password and I'm not able to reset it because my security questions do not match?! Help!! Currently not able to update any apps or icloud info...

    If your device is signed into an old ID of yours that is an earlier version of the ID you want to sign in with, do the following:
    If you are using iMessage and FaceTime, make sure you are signed into these services with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless you are using iCloud Photo Library).  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

  • How can I permananetly delete apps in icloud

    How can I delete apps from my iCloud account?? It's really annoying to have to scroll through them all and some of the apps I don't recall purchasing although free.

    Answer to my question might be here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/18132625#18132625
    Read the "Note" at the bottom of the article.
    "You currently cannot hide purchases on devices using iOS 6."

    How do I delete apps from my iCloud storage that I no longer want or use?

    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

    Hey there Matt.dvs1,
    Although there is not a way to remove past purchases from your iTunes account completely, you can hide them so that you don't have to see them if you don't want to. This article will help you do that:
    iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases - Apple Support
    Hide your purchases
    Open iTunes on your Mac or PC.
    From the Store menu, choose Store > Sign In, and then enter your Apple ID and password.
    Go to the iTunes Store.
    Click Purchased from the Quick Links section on the right side of the iTunes Store.
    Choose a content type by clicking Music, Movies, TV Shows, Apps, or Books from the top of the window.
    A list of your purchased items for the content type you are viewing will appear. Mouse over the item you want to hide until an X appears its top-left corner.
    A confirmation dialog will appear once you click the X.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • How do I delete my entire iCloud account?

    How do I delete my entire iCloud account?

    You can't delete an icloud account.  You can disconnect a device or computer from icloud.  (For example, on an iOS device, go to Settings>icloud, scroll to bottom of screen and tap Delete Account.)
    If you want to delete all the data on icloud, then there are several ways, but these require that you delete stuff one at a time or a group at a time.  Usually, using a computer is faster, since you can for example check multiple emails at once then delete them.
    To delete specific data files associated with a program or app, you'll have to invoke each app and delete the data.

  • How do I delete movie from iCloud on my iPad

    How do I delete movies from iCloud on my iPad

    That's a big fat lie, I have 10 movies via digital copy and takes 0 space from my icloud backup. & we have 5 devices backup to my icloud account AND I have my backup storage to basic 5GIGS. So right there you say to make you pay more storage is a BIG FAT LIE. Our devices contains 8-64GB's and everything fits in a 5gigs space.
    You might as add well the apps accounts for space to. WRONG!!
    Those apps are in your account but not in your storage, the iTunes App Store part, doesn't even add to your icloud storage. Your backup contains the save files, network routers you connected in the past plus the small layout how you customized it over your home page.
    That part takes small kb of space needed to save all that.
    Movies on your device will take storage but if it's NOT on your device, IT WONT!
    Like I said, once it's added to the account via key from the case to your account, stays tie to your account & will NOT take space from your icloud backup storage.
    And don't even forgt that I have 5 device from my family with 10 digital copies on one storage with 5gigs and have 800's MB left. We use our photo/videos we took from camera to a remote secure site onto our computers.
    Simple as that, if you don't listen to that then I feel sorry for you not listening.
    But your not gonna get any other answers besides logging out what I said months back. GOOD DAY!
    Ps. If there were, you've been already got an answer besides mine. Go ahead and waist your life lookn for an answer which doesn't have an answer to other than that what I said.
    And yes, that's what I meant JJorvath. Hide it but will not get off your account bc it's not part of icloud backup.

  • HOw DO I delete apps to create more storage so I can back up

    HOw can I delete apps to create more storage or delete videos or photos from iphone. I have deleted some from my Mac desk top already. They should be deleting on all devices,right. PLEASE ADVISE ASAP

    If you're talking about backing up to iCloud, deleting Apps is almost irrelevant.  Apps aren't backed up to iCloud.  App Data is, but that's usually a small amount.  Plus, you can control what gets backed up to iCloud.  Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage > This Device.  Then, turn off whatever data you don't want backed up to iCloud.  Usually, Photos & Videos take up the most space.
    You can turn that off, and simply import your Photos & Videos to your computer for safekeeping.
    Also, you can increase your iCloud storage from the free 5GB to +10 GB ($20/year), +20 GB ($40/year) or +50 GB GB ($100/year).

  • How can I delete apps from my computer?

    How can I delete apps from my computer and subsequently have this filter to my ipad, iphones?

    If you are syncing through iTunes to manage content on your iPad and iPhones (not using iCloud), you can "filter" what goes on each device in iTunes.
    To do this, select the device in the iTunes sidebar (under DEVICES).  Over to the right, go to the Apps tab.  On that screen, select the apps you want on the device.  Apply the change.
    So each device can have a different set of apps, from your overall library in iTunes that has everything.  There is no need to delete the app from your iTunes library in order for it to be delete from a device.
    But if you DO want to delete an app from your iTunes library, select Apps in the iTunes sidebar (under LIBRARY).  Over to the right, find and select the app you want to delete.  Right (or Control) click on the app and select Delete.

  • I want to update iCloud account with new apple id but don't know password for old apple id.  Plus can no longer receive email at old apple id.  How can I delete the current iCloud account on my iPhone if the previously stated conditions exist?

    I want to update iCloud account with new apple id but don't know password for old apple id.  Plus can no longer receive email at old apple id.  How can I delete the current iCloud account on my iPhone if the previously stated conditions exist?

    If the old ID is yours, and if it is an earlier version of your current ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • How can I delete apps in iTunes and have that sync to my iPhone and iPad?

    How can I delete apps in iTunes and have that sync to my iPhone and iPad? I don't want to delete 3 separate times for each item. I just carefully chose 30-35 apps to get rid of via iTunes, hoping it would sync to my devices, only to find I have to repeat the process on my iPad, take notes, then repeat it on my iPhone. It wasn't always so tedious was it?
    Here's the "Help" I got from Apple. They even quoted my question back to me then proceeded to answer with something very different and completely missing the point.
    I understand that you would like to delete the Apps. I know how eager you are to get the required information and I will be happy to assist you.
    You can remove individual songs, audiobooks, and videos from your iPod, iPhone, or iPad. Removing an item from your device doesn't delete it from your iTunes library.
    To remove items from a device other than an iPod shuffle, first make sure that iTunes is set up to manually manage items.
    1. Connect your iPod, iPhone, or iPad to your computer.
    2. When the iPod, iPhone, or iPad icon appears in iTunes, select it.
    3. Unless your device is an iPod shuffle, click the Summary tab and make sure "Manually manage music and videos" or "Manually manage music" is selected.
    4. If the disclosure triangle to the left of your iPod, iPhone, or iPad (below Devices) is closed, click the triangle so that you can see the device's contents.
    5. Select the item you want to delete and press the Delete key.
    This was not helpful in any way and I am still unable to delete apps on my devices in a global, iTunes based way. Each device still requires its own independent process.

    Match was off.  I made all of the changes and then went through the "Turn on iTunes Match" option.  I now have deleted some tracks, edited the Metadata in CDDA, and then added it back.  This worked fine, but it is not a good solution.
    I just tried making some edits and use the "Update iTunes Match" and that seemed to work.  It looks like the real answer is that Match must be up and operational, then you can make changes and run the Update to incorporate the changes.  However, if Match has a problem then Signing Out and back in to your store account and going through the process of Turning On Match (were you get the questions, "Add this Computer to Match" will overwrite any changes. 
    Since this relies on the stability of iTunes, I won't be making a lot of changes between updates.
