How to get rid of purchased App

I have mistakenly downloaded two applications that are for an IOS later than what I have in my Ipod Touch. I am trying to remove them from the iTunes library because every time I do a sync I get an error message but highlighting them in ITunes and pressing Delete (as the help suggests) does not do it. How do I get rid of them?

You can't permanently delete any item from your purchase historry, you can only hide them : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919

How to get rid of stuck app?

My niece downloaded Instagram to my iPad while she was visiting this summer. After she left I removed it from my iPad (held down until wiggled clicked x). Everything was fine until iOS 6 update when it appeared in my update list along with a number of other apps. I clicked update all and everything got stuck. I followed trouble shooting steps and synced to my computer which got everything moving again. But Instagram is still in my update list but now the update box is greyed out. I can't seem to delete it from the app list either. How do I get rid of this, it's driving me bananas?!

Sometimes this clears up weird issues on the iPad.
You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. But if you try this ....You will have to enter all of your device settings again. All of the settings in the settings app will return to out of the box/factory defaults ... wallpaper, brightness, Safari settings, Auto Lock .... all of those settings ... so you will have to enter them in again.

How to get rid of iOS apps from iTunes?

I deleted some apps from my iPhone and iPad by pressing long until the apps start to wiggle and then tapping the X. I also deleted the same apps from iTunes Apps. But every time I run the Apps update in iTunes it re-downloads these deleted apps. How do I get rid of them for good?

You have to contact Apple if you want to change your Country or Region with a credit.

How to get rid of corruped app update taking up space.

This morning I went on iTunes and saw that there was an update to Dead space HD for the ipad and downloaded it. I then went and synced my ipad as usual to have the update installed. The syncing process got to about 90% and then iTunes came up with a box stating that the ipad was full and the app couldnt be installed. Now my free space has gone from over 900mb to just 80mb and the other category went from a few hundred mb to 1.5gb. I restarted the ipad to see if that would fix the issue and it didnt. I then told itunes to restore the ipad from the last backup but that didnt get rid of the other category and I still have the corruped dead space app in my memory. Now I dont know what to do here. I could completely erase my ipad and put all of my apps, songs and, video files on again like when I bought the ipad, but then I would loose all of my current app data. I simply cant do that as the data on some of my apps is very important or would take months to play again like with some games I have. I also cant just leave the device as it is as I really cant get by with just 80mb. What do you guys think I should do? Thanks!

I uninstalled the app and now have 800mb free but the other category has not changed in size at all. Before today I had 900mb free with the dead space app installed so that didnt work. Any other ideads?

How to get a Previously purchased app from the App Store from a different account on the same computer?

Recently had to replace my hard drive and some info has gone missing. An App from the App Store for one. How can I get it back now that I have a new account? It wont let me sign on with the old one anymore.

There's no need to create a new Apple ID just because the hard drive was replaced.
Apps can only be re downloaded using the same Apple ID they were purchased with originally.
You will have to re purchase the app using the new Apple ID.

I updated to ios5 and now cannot figure out how to get all my purchased apps back on the ipad

i did a sync, backup and then upgraded to ios5 on my ipad. Now my ipad is empty of all appps purchased. How do I get the apps from my itunes account back to the ipad?

Are they in your iTunes library on the computer? If so, sync with iTunes.
Connect the iPad to your computer and launch iTunes. Select your iPad from the left side under "Devices". Click on the apps tab in the iTunes window on the right. Select the Sync Apps heading. Select all of the apps in the list and then click on Sync or Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes.
You can also download the apps again for free in the app store via the purchased tab or download them again in iTunes on your computer and then sync the a[[s to the iPad. You have to use the same Apple ID that you bought the apps with in order to download them again for free.

How do I get rid of an app that won't quit? scanner problem

I ust tried to install a driver for my POS epson Perfection 1260. the app doesn't work with 10.4.8 and when i tried to delete their 'epson scan monitor' app I'm told it can be deleted because it's in use. I cant force quit because it doesn't show up as an option to quit. any ideas on how to get rid of the app that wont let it self be thrown away?
also any reccomendations on a sscanner that is designed and is fully functional with 10.4.8?
Thanks for the help

Hi Brian, Scanner drivers and their add ons can be problematic. I used to have HP's driver installed which played havoc with sleeping - the computers', not mine
The epson scan monitor has probably been installed into /Library/StartupItems which is why it's telling you its in use.
Try deleting it from within Safe Boot or open Activity Monitor in Applications/Utilities and quit it from there before deleting it.
I can vouch for The Hatter's recommendation, VueScan. It's a wonderful little lightweight app that doesn't insinuate itself into StartupItems and mess sleeping up.
Good luck,
Adrian

This is happening because they were purchased with your older Apple ID. Apps and there updates are permanently tied to the Apple ID used to purchase them, regardless of the ID on your phone in Settings>Store. The only way to stop the prompt for your older ID would be to delete these apps from your phone.

You should be able to delete them from the bookshelf in the iBooks app via the Edit button at the top right of the bookshelf. If they show on the bookshelf with a cloud symbol on them then try turning Settings > iBooks > Show All Purchases 'off'. Is that what is happening ?

How do I get rid of an App stuck in waiting. I synced my iPad with my computer, booted my iPad, signed out and back in the store! Help!!

How do I get rid of an app stuck in waiting? I have signed in and out of ITunes store and booted my iPad. I synced my iAd with my computer. I can't use the app or delete it! Thanks!

If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.

Another thing to try - Turn the iPad Off & then back ON.
If that doesn't work:
• Log out of your iTunes store account. Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
• Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
• After restart, the Waiting should be gone.
 Cheers, Tom
