How to delete an app while its downloading

I didn't want this app anymore and it was still downloading( the app used too much MB), I wanted to delete but I couldn't, so I tried deleting some apps so the app can finish downloading and I can delete, but it is still downloading while I am writing this. I need help, plz

On the home screen, you have to hold the app until it wiggles. Then hit the "X" and hit delete. If there is not x, then go to settings, general and restrictions
Hope this helped!

    I have an app that appeared to need to be updated. I clicked to update three days ago. It has started to update and will not finish. How can I delete the app while its in the middle of updating?

    Locked on an update can mean a couple of different things. So there are a number of things to try, but start with these.
    If you have a "waiting" icon, try tapping on the icon and see if you can pause the update/download. Of it pauses, tap on it again and see if it will resume.
    Try holding down on the icon until all of the icons on the screen wiggle. If the X to delete pops up on the waiting/stalled app -  tap the X to delete the app. Tao,the home button and the apps will stop wiggling.
    You can also try this and see if the downloads will resume. Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    Tap and hold your finger over the app (or any app for that matter) until they all start to wiggle.  A small X appears in the upper corner of your downloaded apps.  Tap this X to delete the app from your device.
    Then hit the Home button to make the icons stop wiggling.

    Maybe:
    Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
    Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
    Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.

    go into the apps page on your itunes - its in the list at the top of the page that starts with music (you don't need to have iphone connected)  right click on the apps you want to delete and then choose delete. When you next connect you iphone to update it will ask if you want to transfer things from your iphone to your itunes - click no as i think this will mean that the apps that are on your phone will go to the itunes and the deleted apps will be in itunes again (not really sure about that bit but i think i am right!!) when your iphone is updated it will tell you eventually that it is removing items from the phone - the apps will be removed.                                                                                    30GB video, 8 gb nano, 16gb iTouch, 3G iPhone, Windows 2000

    The part of this that provided the working solution has to do with the location in iTunes you are doing your App management.  You have to be in the Apps item selected in the left part of the iTunes screen... not in the Apps Tab of the iPod you are trying to manage.  Having me do the delete with the iPod Touch disconnected was the detail that made me go look in the Library.
    I missed this subtile clue in Philly_Phan's post... Philly_Phan did tell me how to do it, I just missed the connection due to there being too many ways to view and manage content.  The "Library" part is the detail I missed.
    I hope this helps others, and I am greatly in debt to Bunnydrummer and Philly_Phan... thanks you guys!

    how to delete unwanted apps from itunes cant figure it out

    What do you mean delete from iTunes? You can't do that on an iPad. You can delete apps in iTunes on a computer. If you want to delete an app on the iPad, tap and hold down on the icon until the icon wiggles, then tap the  X appears on the icon to delete the app. Tap the home button when finished.
    You really need to explain in more detail what you wNt to do. Maybe this will help.

    How to delete the apps in the purchased tab in appstore which i no longer have on my ipad. They still show in the purchased tab.

    It's not currently possible to permanently delete any items from your purchase history, all you can do is hide them so that they don't appear in the Purchased tab : hiding and unhiding. If your iPad is on iOS 6 then you will need to do it via your computer's iTunes.

  • How do you find out how many times an app has been downloade

    Wondering where I can find out how many times an app from the app store has been downloaded?

    Are you asking if you can find out how many times an app has been downloaded from the app store? Or you asking if you can find how many times you have downloaded the app? If the former, you could try asking the developer. If the latter, none that I know of.
