How do I remove apps from app store "not on this iPhone" list on iPhone 4 using ios 6

I want to remove many of the apps listed in the app store of my iPhone 4 under "apps no longer on this iPhone." I have ios 6.0.1. I don't ever want to use these apps again. They are gone from the iPhone and my iTunes, but are still listed on the iPhone under "apps no longer on this iPhone in the app store. I read somewhere to swipe the unwanted apps and choose a red "hide" option. My apps won't swipe. The only option available is to press a cloud icon to reinstall the unwanted app, which is certainly not what I want to do.

I can't delete a number of browser links (resulting from "add to home screen" feature); apps from a convention I attended (Right NowPGX), an old Tunein Radio app, a corny Dream Wife app.

  • Is there a way to clear the app stores "Not on this iphone" list of previously downloaded apps?

    with the new update there is a way to download all your old apps. however my list is immensly long, and i am looking for a way to clear or reset the list.
    the list im referring to is on my iphone 4, in the app store, under the tab "Updates" and "Not on this Iphone" alot of these apps are old or i have no interest ever downloading again and would prefer to not have them showing

    There are many threads that have recently been posted addressing this matter. Currently iTunes and iOS displays all Apps ever downloaded  and you can't control which ones you would like to delete from that list permanently and which you would like to keep in the Cloud, so to speak.

  • I got a new iPhone 5 when I went to add my music back from the cloud Not on this iPhone Rihanna for some reason will not re load to my new phone the Little wheel just keeps moving

    I got a new iPhone 5 when I went to add my music back from the cloud Not on this iPhone Rihanna for some reason will not re load to my new phone the Little wheel just keeps moving nothing ever happens.  I turned it off and still nothing
    whats up with that I have one beatles song and one kenny chesney also

    Mate, I'm trying to find out if it was shipped like that or not. If someone else has had the same issue then I can go back to Apple and have them look into it further. If not then as I said Vodafone is selling second hand phones and they will have to replace the phone.
    Vodafone account manager is saying that he has never heard of anything like it.
    So I'm left with one of 3 answers.
    1: The phone was shipped like that so its a factory error.
    2: The Apple genius doesn’t know what he's talking about then I can go back to the store and ask for a second opinion.
    3: Vodafone is selling second hand phones as new.
    I need to narrow it down so I can deal with the account manager appropriately 

  • How do you remove ebooks from your ipad. not just arcive them get rid of them totally?

    How do you remove ebooks from your ipad? Not just arcive them but get rid of them completly?

    That all depends on which eBook app you're using. If you archive a book using the Kindle app, it is removed from your iPad. It's still available in your Kindle account should you ever wish to access it again but it's not taking up space on your device.

  • How do you remove Firefox from computer, will not delete from "Add/delete hardware"

    Have tried to remove firefox from computer. Tried "add/remove harware, programs" from control panel, won't do anything keeps popping back up. Several months ago firefox crashed and computer would not let me log on to the internet. Went back to internet explorer works great. But now I can't seem to get rid of firefox from my computer. My internet carrier (cox.net) say that firefox is not compatible with their internet system. How can I remove firefox from control panel, is taking up space in my computer?

    Try Programs or Programs and Features, Firefox is software not hardware.
    Look in there for Mozilla Firefox not Firefox.

  • How do I remove App Store account that isn't mine?

    I open App Store application and it shows that I have 1 update available for an app I never purchased. I try clicking the update button and get the message "You have updates available for other accounts: Sign in to [email protected] to update applications for that account." -- I have no clue what this account is or where it came from but it's not mine. MY updates seem to be working OK but I can't get rid of this 1 update available message.
    Anyone? THANKS!

    All app downloaded from Mac AppStore(MAS) contain a receipt inside their app bundle (example: appname.app/Contents/_MASReceipt/receipt). MAS will scan this file to check whether the new version is available.
    Sometimes the pirated app receipt doesn't necessarily use the same name as the app.
    For example: The app name could be 'Angry Birds' but inside the receipt it's 'Cut the Rope'. Hence MAS will search an update for 'Cut the Rope'
    You can use this application (Find Any File) to search any receipt on your drive: http://apps.tempel.org/FindAnyFile/
    Launch 'Find Any File' and search for: _MASReceipt
    Go throught each result that you think could be the culprit, copy the receipt to your desktop as a backup, and after that delete the receipt inside _MASReceipt folder.
    Open MAS and let it scan for software update. If it's still showing the update for the problem apps, it means that you've deleted the wrong receipt. Copy back the receipt backup from your desktop to it's previous location.
    Repeat the process until you find the pirated receipt

  • I am having trouble in the app store after upgrading to iPhone 5 and iOS 6

    I am having trouble since upgrading from iPhone 4s to iPhone 5.  The "restore" feature never completed after activation of the new phone (it was close, only "find my iphone" app did not complete - it looked like it is forever trying to download).  But now, when I have tried to update apps, or even purchase new (free or paid) apps, the store does not let me.  It flashes error messages on my screen so quickly they cannot be read (the first is something about signing in to the store with an apple ID).  I have seen other similar threads and have tried logging out and into the app store from the settings menu.
    I also cannot get any of my music to transfer to the iPhone (from the icloud).  It seems to be trying to but I just get the spinning wheel of death.
    Any thoughts or help out there would be much appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hello there, Missy.
    First thing I would recommend is to check your downloads queue to make sure there is not an interrupted download per the following Knowledge Base article:
    iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1725
    If your download was interrupted using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    1. From the Home screen, tap the iTunes app.
    2. For iPhone or iPod touch, tap More > Downloads. For iPad, tap Downloads.
    3. Enter your account name and password if prompted.
    4. Tap the blue download arrow to resume.
    If you can't complete the download on your iOS device, you can download it in iTunes on your Mac or PC and then sync it to your iOS device. You can also transfer purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer.
    For Apps, you can also try tapping on the application icon to resume the download, as outline in this featured discussion:
    App updates won't download on my...: Apple Support Communities
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4111336
    Try tapping the App, so that it changes to Paused instead of Waiting, then tap it again to resume the install.
    Make sure you don't have any paused downloads in other apps either, like the App Store or iTunes Store.
    If that doesn't do it, try resetting or restoring the iPhone.

    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.

  • Uploaded tracks to my friend's account using my iTunes player. They showed up in My Music on my own acct. How can I remove them from mine but not his?

    Hi,
    I used my iTunes player to sign into my friend's account and upload a bunch of Cds for him as he has no PC. I then synced the tracks to his iPad. Now, when I sign into my own iTunes account, the songs are there as well. When I delete them from my own list, they are also deleted from his. How can I get the tracks to delete from my own playlist but not his? (NB The iPad and PC are not connected when I do this).
    Thanks

    Put a copy of that music on a second external drive; if desired, then delete it from your iTunes library. The music will remain associated with the original Apple ID; iTunes libraries are separate from iTunes Store accounts.

  • App Store not loading on iPhone 6

    I have an iPhone 6 running iOS 8.0.2 and am not able to access the App Store. When I open the App Store app, I see the toolbar across the bottom, but all screens are blank besides Updates. I can see and download any available updates (or purchased apps), but I can't search, browse or anything else. I bought the phone a few days ago and the app store was working fine until yesterday. I haven't downloaded any updates or system changes since then that would have caused this.
    I have tried closing and reopening the app, restarting my phone, resetting my phone, and resetting settings and network settings. None of this has fixed the problem. It's happening on both WiFi and cellular network.

    You must use the App Store (icon) & not a browser to get apps/updates. Are you sure you have wifi connection?

  • Third Party Apps Not Opening on iPhone 5 using iOS 6.0.2

    I have an iPhone 5 and am using iOS 6.0.2 and recently certain third party apps like Facebook, Instagram, Shazzam for instance, no longer open.  When I tap on the app, the app comes up on the screen for about a second, and then closes.  What's strange is that I've been using iOS 6.0.2 and have also been using the most updated versions of the apps without any issues.  The crashing started happening around last Friday.  Here's what I've tried to do to fix the problem so far but none of these options have worked:
    - I restarted my phone by holding down the home button and the lock button. 
    - I turned my phone off and turned it on again. 
    - I deleted the apps and reinstalled them and then restarted my phone. 
    - I downloaded a random free app, opened it, and then tried opening the apps that kept crashing.
    - I restored my phone and synced it using the most recent back up I had, which was from earlier that day. 
    I did find a temporary solution, that allows the apps to open but I think it's because the apps are not the most recent versions. 
    - I restored my phone and set it up as a new phone.  The phone then downloaded all of the apps again and re-synced everything.  The apps did open after that however, when I went to the app store, it said that I had 24 available updates.  I updated all of the apps to their most up to date versions and then noticed that they once again stopped opening and would crash almost immediately after launching them. 
    - I then restored my phone again and set it up as a new phone and did not update the 24 apps and all but one of them work.  The only app that I've noticed that still doesn't work is the Blackboard Eats app.  It still crashes almost immediately after launching it. 
    I took my phone to the Genius Bar this weekend (which is where I was told to restore the phone and set it up as a new phone).  I'm thinking that the issue is purely a software issue, but is there any chance that it could be a hardware issue? 
    I suppose I could just not update the apps, but I'm hoping there's a better solution than that.  What's weird is that the phone was working with iOS 6.0.2 and all of the most up to date versions of the apps less than a week ago and it seems that somehow, overnight, they stopped working. 
    Is anyone else running into this problem?  Has anyone found a solution? 
    Thanks in advance,
    Kevin

    The music player does not remember where the last session ended.  I have about 1000 songs on my iPhone.  I play the songs in the Shuffle mode - and it worked fine on iOS 5.x.  Ever since I updated to iOS 6.0, the shuffle seems to be seriously broken.  It repeats the song sequence of previous session in the exact order instead of starting from where the session ended.  God forbid if your last session was 10-25 songs long - you'll have to hit the Next song so many times to listen to something that you have not heard for a while.
