How do I disable App Store in Maps?

I have disabled Safari and App Store in iOS 6 on my son's iPod Touch using Parental Controls to prevent him from making unuathorized purchases and accessing inappropriate content online. But, I am still able to access the App Store through Maps when I do the following:
"-find your desired location in Maps
-click the right arrow in the location's name (not the green navigation logo)
-choose "directions to here"
-choose the bus logo at top right (used to take you to transit directions)
-now you'll be presented with a list of available "routing apps."
Routing Apps are now listed for purchase through the App Store and many of them have internal web browsers allowing full access to the internet.
How do I disable this from happening?

No way that I know of. Inform Apple of the problem.

    If you had a backup either in iTunes or iCloud of the iPad you can restore from it by following this article:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    If not you can go into the Purchased section of the App Store App, and download your Purchased Apps from there for free. However their data will not be restored.

    Problem now resolved as I upgraded to Snow Leopard 10.6.  Seems App Store doesn't like anything previous to 10.6.

  • How can I restore App Store and apps

    How can I restore App Store and my purchased apps

    If you mean that you can't find the App Store app on any of your homescreens or app folders, and you can't find it via the spotlight search screen (swipe your first home screen to the right), then is it hidden by Settings > General > Restrictions > Installing Apps being set 'off' ? If it is hidden then unhide it and the app should then appear on your iPad's homescreen, and you can then re-download your apps via the Purchased tab in it.

  • Can I disable App Store?

    App Store keeps bothering me to install OS X 10.10, but I want to stay at 10.9. Can I disable App Store, or otherwise ignore the update?
    I miss the old Software Update utility -- you could select "Ignore this update" and was less intrusive and annoying.

    It'll require two steps:
    1. Go to System Preferences > App store > UNcheck everything. You will need to manually check so you don't miss any important security or other apps you do want to update.
    2. System Prefs > Notifications > make sure nothing is listed as being "IN" Notifications: if it is, choose "none" on right and UNcheck all other options. That will move the app in the "NOT in Notifications".
    That should take care of it.

    Thank you for your advice.
    Actually, I am aware that the upgrade is implemented in 10.6.7. However, up until now I haven't been able to upgrade to Mac OS X 10.6.7, as I have software that is not yet compatible. So I wondered how to do it within 10.6.6? May be it is not possible? Anyway, this gave me a push to track the software I use for compatibility, and I found that an update for 10.6.7 now is ready for download, so then I will probably solve two issues at the same time. Takes a little work though. Thank you again for your advice.

  • HT1848 how to download the app store?

    how to download the app store on iphone4 ?        

    The App Store app is on your iPhone now and cannot be removed, so there's nothing to download. If you can't find it, it may be on another home screen or inadvertently hidden in a folder. Either do a search for it or try the Reset Home Screen Layout in the Settings/General/Reset area. Also, check the Restrictions to see if purchasing apps has been turned off, and if so turn that back on.
    Regards.
