How do you get rid of the pending update from app store updates screen?

I own an 64GB iPad 2+3G. The App Store icon has a red circle with a number 3 in it. That means I have 3 updates pending.
I tried to download the updates to Pandora and Kindle using 3G at first. It did not work. I assumed it was because it was over 20 MB.
(I did not try the Vegas Towers one.) I went to the library and it still would not download via their wifi.
The description of the updates mention the retina display of the new iPad (3). Is that the cause of the download problem? I have already downloaded the iOS 5.1 at the library. Well, it is not that big a deal for me if I don't get the updates. But how do I get rid of the pending updates? How do I get rid of that little red circle? Also, I have not been able to use the Pandora or Kindle apps. They just keep saying waiting. I got boxes that said download failed and offering choice of done or retry. Since nothing happens, I chose done. So, I cannot update my apps, and in the meantime I cannot use the apps because the downloads stalled. I would like to abort the downloads and get rid of the updates from the update screen. I want to be able to use the apps again. Can anyone provide a solution? Thanks!

Hi Panamark,
The problem has been resolved for me. I am a little fuzzy on how it got fixed.
I only have 3G, so I think I went to the library to use wi-fi.
I think I just deleted the stuck apps, and the downloaded them again. You do not have to pay again when you download a previously purchased app.
It is now August, and fortunately I have not had any stuck apps lately.
As you may already know, you cannot download an app over 20 MB via 3G.
I have the Kindle app also. No new updates lately. I only bought one thing using Kindle. It was a guide to iPad that was only $1.99 or so, but it did not really have anything that cannot be found in normal free Apple guide.
I have borrowed an ebook from the library using Overdrive app. You can choose the ebook version from Kindle.
I don't have any weather apps.
Let me know what happened when you get the chance.

    iOS 7 allows you to have your apps update automatically. Therefore, the list of what has been updated stays so that you can see what was updated, when and what the release notes say. It has been suggested that they list has a limit, much like Recents. Currently, there is no way for the user to delete the entries manually. Just try not to look at them.

  • How do you get rid of the updates from the App Store

    Hi I'm trying to figure out how to get rid of the already downloaded updates? I don't like them being there and can't seem to get it to go away. Is there a way to do this please let me know. Thanks a lot.

    You can't get rid of it.
    It will start dropping the earlier updates after about two weeks (first in first out)

  • With Knoll Light Factory how do you get rid of the pinpoint of light that overlap obscuration layer?

    I have KLF 3.0 on AE CS6, I am trying to add a nice flare to some keyed footage of a rock star for music video...
    I set it up so it looks like a light is behind him and I want him to obscure it a bit when he moves around... However, I can't get rid of the little pinpoint of light where I have the source! My obscuration layer works properly, as he crosses it it dims the light, but the light doesn't totally disappear when he's in front of the "Source"! There's still a little pinpoint that crosses over him ruining the effect I'm going for!
    Does someone know how to get rid of that little artifact?
    I've tried tweaking all the settings to no avail...
    Thanks all!
    Aza

    Interesting. I have also experienced a similar problem involving a Knoll lens flare effect (v. 3.0) and obscuration, in this case some 3D text, backlit by a Knoll flare applied to a background layer. The flare moved across and behind the text and faded in and out either side of the text within the comp frame via keyframed opacity settings. The pinpoint of light appeared against the background at the end of the flare's path (beyond the text) on an opacity keyframe that was mistakenly adjusted to 1% instead of 0%. However after re-setting it to 0% and RAM previewing the pinpoint of light remained. Couldn't be eliminated. It was permanent and was also visible in the rendered output. The only quick way to eliminate it was to replace the background layer with a new one, add a new Knoll lens flare effect, copy and paste the keyframes from the original Knoll effect, check the opacity was indeed set to zero at the total fade-out frame and render/playback again. The pinpoint was gone. Puzzling. Not sure if this is what's happening in your case though.

  • How do I get rid of the iDisk icon from my desktop?

    I just got a new MacBook Pro 17" with the latest version of Snow Leopard. My local hard drive icon was missing but thankfully I figured out how to get that back. However, I also have the blue iDisk icon on my desktop for which I have no use. How do I get rid of that icon? I trying ejecting it (Command-E) but to no avail.
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated,
    Randy

    The same thing happened to me, and I finally found the answer. I thought I'd post in case others had the same problem:
    Snow Leopard has a new setting under System Preferences > MobileMe within the "iDisk" tab: there's a feature now called "iDisk Sync" that lets you create a virtual "DropBox" from your iDisk if this feature is turned on -- disabling it as a internet only drive.
    If you turn this feature off, however, your iDisk will work as expected and allow you to mount / eject it.
    Hope this helps!

  • In the address bar, how do you get rid of the Amazon button, the "e-pub catalogue" button and change my search button to Google vs Babylon? Where is the button beside the forward arrow that would allow you to see your current history of links?

    On my address bar, there is now a superfluous Amazon button at the right of the forward arrow where there used to be a button that would allow you to see your recent links. It's gone. In addition there is a useless "epub catalog" button and the search button is Babylon instead of Google. How do I go back to my working address bar.

    Right click the Back / Forward buttons to get a list of sites you visited.
    To reinstate Google as your search engine, do the following.
    * In the location bar, type '''about:config '''and hit Enter.
    * In the filter at the top, type: '''keyword.URL'''
    * Double click it and remove whatever's in there and replace it with http://www.google.com/search?q=
    * Go to File | Exit
    * Restart Firefox, go to the site you want to set as your homepage.
    * Go to '''Tools '''| '''Options '''| '''General'''.
    * Make sure it says "''Show My Homepage''" in the first dropdown menu.
    * Click the button called "'''Use Current Pages'''" to set the homepage to the one you have on the screen.
    The URL to add in "keyword.URL" becomes a link in this post, so right click it and choose "Copy Link Location" to copy it to the Windows clipboard. Then hit CTRL+V to paste it. Saves you having to type the whole thing.
    '''EDIT''': Remove the AmAzon button by right clicking a blank part of the tab bar and click '''Customize'''. Then drag it into the panel which opens.
