How to delete/reinstall an Apple app on iPad?

Can an Apple app (e.g. Clock) be deleted from an iPad and then reinstalled? The process is there for third party apps, but my problem is with one of the Apple apps included in the iOS.

Before you go through a full restore, restore from a backup and see if that helps. It that doesn't help, try resetting all settings.

Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered.

    The cable is OK, otherwise you would have not see your RM-xxx at all. Please, patch again and use the Nokia 6700 classic as recommended.
    @Abi99 WOW! It worked like a charm.
    It didn't work when I patched MobiMB by replacing my mobile code RM-949 before 6700 ( see attachment, hexeditor.png, navigation point - 1 ), now I placed my mobile code RM-940 after 6700 ( see attachment, hexeditor.png, navigation point - 2 ). Annnnnnnnnnnnd! BOOOM! This is what I got! (see attachment, mobimb3.png)
    Thank you sooooooooooo much @Abi99 . It was my mistake, I didn't follow your tutorial properly. First, I hesitated to install hex editor on my PC, when my AV detected it as adware. But I trust you, I disabled my AV and gone ahead and enabled my AV. It worked just fine.  
    BTW, is there any list of items, which are safe to delete?

  • How do I open non apple apps on my macbook pro

    How do I open non apple apps on my macbook pro? I can't open ever since I downloaded os x maverick

    If you already changed System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Allow apps downloaded from: to Anywhere then issue is not Gatekeeper which is the built-in service that prevents apps from unidentified developers from being executed.  It's possible that you need to either reinstall the App or maybe is simply not compatible with Mavericks yet.  In any event you should be able to at-least look for a crash log for more information.

  • TS1702 How do I reinstall my Skype app?

    How do I reinstall my Skype app on my ipad2?

    If it's still on your iPad then you can delete it by pressing and holding any of the apps and after a couple of seconds or so they should start to shake. Then press the 'x' in the left corner to delete the Skype app and then press the home button so as to stop the shaking. If you don't get the 'x' on any of your downloaded apps then check that Settings > General > Restrictions > Deleting Apps isn't set 'off'.
    You should then be able to re-download it.
    But if you want to reinstall it because you are having problems with it then you could instead try closing the Sype app completely and see if it works when you re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Skype app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Skype app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.

  • How can I open an Apple App account for downloading free apps?  I will not let me open a new account without a sim card.

    I just bought a used 1st Generation Apple iPad 64 GB, 3G. How can I open an Apple App account?  I am trying to download a free app and it says I have to have an account, however, everytime I try to set up a new account I can fill only fill out some of the information but then the screen goes black and I cannot proceed with the account.  At one point it said "no sim card" and I am not sure where one would go if I had one.  Do you need a sim card to download free apps?  Why won't it let me set up an Apple Account?  Any suggestions?

    I can think of no reason at all why you need a sim card to creat an Apple ID. Try this first - reboot the iPad and reset the memory.
    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 - let go of the buttons.
    Afte the iPad starts up again, follow the directions in this support article - exactly - to creat the account without a credit card.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    IF ... You are signed into another Apple ID on the iPad you will have to sign out of that ID in order to create a new one. Settings>Store - you can sign out there.
    You MUST try to download a free app in order to start the process off correctly. If you were using an email address with another ID that you already created, you will have to have another email address to associate the new ID with.

  • How can I reinstall the YouTube app?

    How can I reinstall the YouTube app?

    Thanks dave
      This is a mystery. Both YouTube apps have different icons so they're not duplicates.
    One is a picture of an old fashioned television and the other is the YouTube logo.
    The old fashioned TV was able to be disabled in the ipod settings so that must be the one that belongs.
    I'm pretty sure the other one also came with the unit.
    Maybe I should start a thread?

  • How do I turn off Apple Apps?

    How do I remove the Apple apps that I don't have any use for? I can remove the ones I downloaded but not Apples. I looked all through iTunes as well and can't turn them off there. Is this deliberate?

    Thanks for your response regarding this specific part of my issue. That's a pity because I'm an tricky situation.
    I have wound up getting an iPhone contract that has me living in a data roaming area for my mobile provider. This is partly due to insufficient knowledge, lack of education in the matter and partly due to the nature of all services in the remote Australian town I live in. The reason I went with this provider in the first place was due to the limited services I could access that had signal in my home and finance. Incidentally all three of them sell iPhones. The first one's cheapest deal is $100 a month for the contract with a lousy deal. The second has intermittent signal in our home, I may have gone with one of their plans if not for the poor signal. The third, which I went with, a fairly good deal for the cash and the cellular coverage perfect all over the property. I have since found out their roaming data network, which I live in is contracted to the first option which own the monopoly and hence the ridiculous mb charges. Occasionally it connects to the second option, but I get the feeling they are also subcontracting off the first! Anyway...
    So I live in a roaming data area, It's not international roaming so the phone won't protect me from the excessive mb charges. I started out only using general apps when in WI-FI but found intermittent drop outs which I never noticed happen was causing excessive charges. I have since noticed the signal bars for the WI-FI not change but a spinner indicator ,all very easy to miss. I contacted the network and they refuse to turn off my data network; despite a tech telling me it can be done. So until Apple come to the rescue and put in a feature like the no roaming feature that works for all mobile data connections, that are not the ones belonging to the service provider, I'm stuck turning the phone to aeroplane mode before using any app I don't completely trust. I can see Apples difficulty here, but I would settle for turning all data network off, just leaving the cellular network and WI-FI active. As things are I have to turn phone over to aeroplane mode, then turn WI-FI on then use app, then remember to turn the phone back on when finished. Sometimes I forget for a couple of hours. But I trust some apps or sometimes forget to turn the mobile off. Contacts app got me the yesterday; I was at the post office where I looked up an address and accidentally tapped the address on the card and the maps app loaded up. This is followed by mad stumble to close it before it uses data. So easy to do, also happened using the iPod in the car a few days back. While selecting a pod cast I accidentally clicked "Get more episodes…" and safari loaded, Panic!!! Also what makes it worse, is that I can't remove or hide some apps provided by Apple, like Maps, for example, to reduce the risk of accidental tap. Feel very vulnerable! There is also a risk of forgetting to switch the phone to aeroplane mode when I let a friend checkout the phone or just play one of my games.
    So Apple, what are my options? Shelve the phone by leaving phone permanently off turning it into an iPod touch and keep paying through the nose for 2 years? Or Gaol Break so I can make some changes that would help, I read there is a solution to this issue for gaol broken phones, (I'm not sure what impact that would have on my service). But frankly neither of these options I want to follow! I feel trapped!
    Also there is nothing disclosing to me what apps have access to what data port. I would feel better if I could see a true list of what each app has access to. Not just on the phone but also on the app store, information detected and provided by hardware and not submitted by the programmer. No offence to all you GOOD programmers out there, but there are many that can't be trusted. An example of my need for this disclosure, does Remote (apple's iTunes remote) access the data network or just the WI-FI? Of course I would ASUME it only accesses the WI-FI. But reading the support page and description for it left me unsure, and it's this unsure feeling that scares me with this whole situation hanging over me. The home pages and the apps themselves are like a mine field to me. Another simple question reflecting this. Does the weather app regularly check for forecast data, or does it only do it when I open the app? What if I mistakenly click it while my data network is active? Sounds harmless doesn't it? But to me a mistake like that adds around $5 to my bill which is already pushing my budget. It would also be useful to be able to control each apps access privileges independently; but I would settle for a simple setting that has them all prompt me for access to the data network instead of just switching to it when there is a short WI-FI dropout.
    I love the iPhone but I'm starting to feel I chose the wrong product. It has too many fluent network features (imagine saying that!) and it makes too many assumptions about my situation, most of which are wrong. The iPhone is the wrong product for someone who lives where I live and doesn't have basement full of gold! But I am stuck with this contract, what are my options?
    Your's sincerely, life long Apple supporter…

  • How do I reinstall a missing app icon

    A couple of my app cons are missing from my apps folder as well as my dock, but the programs are still there. (I have to run them from spotlight.)
    How do I reinstall a missing app icon?
    Thanks!

    If you've found them in Spotlight, where are they? (hover over the app you found in the Spotlight list to see its path in a tooltip, or click Show All, then hover over the name of the app and see the path at the bottom of the window).
    Once you open that location in the Finder, you should be able to drag them back to the Applications folder.

  • Does any one know how to get my Genius Apple Apps screen to work? Genius is Blank

    Does any one know how to get my Genius Apple Apps screen to work? Genius is Blank now regardless of how I enter the option. My upgrades, purchased, featured and searches all work in Apple Apps app. I have checked my settings for a possible fix to no avail. Tried all hand motions to see if they would fix or help and of course they did not. My Genius worked with some real possible apps I might want, now - absolutely nothing. Any solution that is actually possible will be appreciated.

    You need to be quite a bit more specific.  What exactly is the Desktop manager doing or not doing?  You have a Pearl....what model?  Look in Options >About and tell us what model you have and what OS it's running.  Also, what version of Desktop Manager, OS on your PC, etc.
