How to Get Rid of Update Option on an App, iPhone, iPad etc...

Dear Apple,
I understand this is not possible, yet!
Please fix this one annoying oversight/bug you have had for ever. The option to "Update All" is great but it's useless if you have one or more apps that you don't want to update. Not everyone wants to update everything, agreed? Why not give us all an option to select an app that we wish not to be included in our updated list of apps to our devices such as our iPhone, iPad etc...?
For example, I have Splash id, 4 since 2008, if I do an "Update All" which is crucial (because I have many, many apps to update at a time and I like to update them all at once on my WiFi once every month or so) I'm forced to update Splash to version 6. I don't want 6 because this version is "not compatible" with the Desktop Version! I use the desktop version everyday to sync all my new passwords etc....
In order to make the Desktop version work I need to pay Splash yet another $10 to upgrade? I'm happy using my old version, it works fine.
So because you don't have an option to exclude this app with the updates, I have to sit there for hours just updating my apps one by one?
Appears to be an easy fix, how has this slipped by you for sooo long?
There has to be many of you out there experiencing this problem. If this post goes viral maybe Apple will see it and do something about it?
Thank You

  • How to get rid of "no sender" in mail app on iPad?

    I am not able to delete the "no sender" messages in my mail app.  They are adding up.  I appreciate any help you can give me!

    If you have no sender/subject emails dated 31/12/1969 then try turning the account off and on : Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars , then tap the account on the right, slide Mail to 'off', exit settings and go back into the Mail app, and then go back to Settings and slide Mail back to 'on'
    If that doesn't work then try closing the Mail app completely : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail 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 Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    Also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • How to get rid of the new bottom layer with piano roll etc. in arrange??

    Hey guys,
    Just a quick question i suppose.
    I work with 2 screens.
    When I double click a midi event, i want the piano roll to open in a floating window, just like it used to be, and not in the new bottom layer (pop up) bar in the bottom of the arrange window. I want this because i like to edit on the second screen while still haveing an overview of my arrange on my 1st screen.
    Does anyone know how to do this? Or perhaps know how to get rid of this new bar all together?
    I hope someone does....
    thanks in advance!
    cheers,
    PM

    how annoying is it to go to a seperate screen set and then click a midi region just to edit it?
    You haven't grasped the concept of screensets.
    In the "old" way of working, in your arrange, you double-click on a region, which opens that region in an editor. You may have to move the editor position/size etc. You make your edits, and then close the window.
    The screenset way of doing this is simpler and quicker. In your arrange, you select your region (one click, rather than a double click). You then hit a key command, lets' say "2" to switch to your editor screenset, which has the eitor or combination of editors you use, in link mode. As soon as you hit your 2 key, the editors will be recalled at the precise locations you specified, showing you the contents of your selected region.
    When you are finished editing, just hit "1" to go back to your main arrange window.
    Once you get used to this, you'll find it's a lot quicker and more efficient than all that rsi double clicking and window closing...

  • How to get rid of ios6 file downloaded to my iphone?

    My iphone4 downloaded ios6 two days ago, as far as I know without my intervention (I may have accidentally given order for that...). I've noticed an icon badge with '1' on settings and with surprise I found ios6 had been downloaded and was ready to install!!! I don't want in any way to install by now, but the problem is the huge space occupied by the file - more than 2 GB. So I'd like to know how to get rid of the file. I didn't find anything about...

    Same question ! 2 GB of space is waisted 4 the moment ...

  • How to get rid of "updates for HP printer"

    I have a new problem concerning HP printer updates . Currently am getting a updater for new downloads for Hp2175 on my desktop, but there's nothing in this box to download and I can't get rid of the message box. It only allows me to click out of it. Do any of you wonderful mac folks have a clue?
    Thanks

    You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
    Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store notice. For example, if the App Store says you need to update "Twitter," the hacked app may be "Angry Birds" or something else entirely. Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you have to carry out a systematic search.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
    kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
    In the Finder, press the key combination command-F to open a search window, or select
    File ▹ Find
    from the menu bar. In the search window, select
    Search: This Mac
    from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu initially showing Kind. From that menu, select  Other...
    A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select Raw Query and click OK or press return.
    Now there will be a text box to the right of popup menu. Click in that box and paste (command-V).
    The search window will show all the App Store products you've installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
    At least one of the items listed in the search window is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
    Log out and log back in. Test.

  • How to get rid of update icon after updating apps

    So, since updating to iOS 7, I've noticed that any apps I update now show a small round blue icon next to the app name.
    I get that this is supposed to let us know which apps have been updated, but is there any way to get rid of them all at once?
    So far all I've seen is that you have to open each updated app one at a time to get rid of it.
    Thanks in advance.

    There is no way of doing that

  • How to get rid of the camera flip on an iphone 4?

    Hey, I have been using my iPhone 4 for just over four months now, and I hate how the camera works...
    Every time I take a picture, it flips it and makes it look like a mirror reflection or something. I don't like that at all. It exposes the unbalances at my eye level.. makes it look like a lazy eye..The only solution I had up till now was using Instagram, but they updated their app, and now it flips the picture as well.
    Can somebody please provide me with an app that will take a picture and NOT flip the photo that's saved to the library?
    Thanks & Happy Holidays.

  • How to get rid of Photo Library in Photos App

    Hello, Am an iPhone user with a question, when i upload new photos from iTunes, the iPhone automatically generate the Photo Library. how can i get rid of this Photo Library

    You can't delete the Photo Library. The iPhone stores photos the same way iPhoto does on a Mac. All photos are synced to your Photo Library. The various albums/folders merely contain pointers to the actual photos which are in your Photo Library, they are not duplicates.

  • HELP! Acrobat 9 - How to get rid of updater notification for all users without admin rights

    I just bought Acrobat Pro 9 w/ volume licensing because Adobe said this would fix a problem we are having. Every morning we have users that login and get a box that says that do not have sufficient rights to update Adobe. I need this gone. Obviously I can't give them admin rights. We are running on 5 terminal servers running 2003 server. I just need a hack or something I don't really care.

  • How to get rid of "Waiting for Activation" on old iphone 3G?

    Ok I just upgraded to the new 4 & planned on giving my old 3G to my son to play games, music, photos etc.
    I'm in the process of re-syncing it with everything for him
    But there seems to be a message on the screen "Waiting for Activation, this may take some time"
    How do I get that to go away as I will NOT be activating this phone again, but it will basically be used like an ipod touch?
    Thanks.

    Turn Airplane mode on followed by turning on wi-fi access.
    The no longer activated SIM card will need to be inserted in the iPhone to restore the iPhone with iTunes if wanted or needed and to install a firmware update or to complete the process - the SIM card that was used with the iPhone when it was activated.

  • How to get rid of an apple id from a iphone

    I gave my sister my old iphone to get a difrent phone and when she got a new sim recently I keep getting popups to add the number to my ipod's facetime , imessenger ect. she was using my apple id and then made a new one and just signed in to her phone. So every time she reactivates imessanger or anything else my apple id comes up automatically. Is there any way to remove my id keeping all her data without having her having to start from scrach.

    Erasing the iPhone is the solution; there are at least two ways to do that, though. 
    The second one is, go to icloud.com and login with your Apple ID and password.  Go to "Find My iPhone" and click "Devices."  From there you'll be able to erase the iPhone.  All the magic will happen as soon as the iPhone has internet access.

  • How to get rid of #2038 error in a flex iphone app

    I have created an flex mobile app in which I want to save a file in pdf format in an ipad/iphone (any IOS device) but while saving that file its throughing #2038 error. And another thing I don't want to save the pdf file in applicationStorageDirectory, because after saving the file I want use that pdf file. Here is my code.
    var file:File = File.documentDirectory.resolvePath("indicators.pdf");
    if (file.exists)
    file.deleteFile(); //delete it if exists
    //create a file stream to be able to write the content of the file   
    var fileStream:FileStream = new FileStream();
    var popUpPage:AlertPage = new AlertPage();
    try
    //open the file stream and set for Write
    fileStream.open(file, FileMode.WRITE);
    //writes the bytes
    fileStream.writeBytes(pdfBytes, 0, pdfBytes.length);
    //close the stream
    fileStream.close();
    PopUpManager.addPopUp(popUpPage,this,true);
    popUpPage.lblAlert.text = "indicator saved in pdf format = "+ file.nativePath;
    PopUpManager.centerPopUp(popUpPage);
    this.visible = false;
    catch(err :Error)
    PopUpManager.addPopUp(popUpPage,this,true);
    popUpPage.lblAlert.text = err.message + "  "+ file.nativePath;
    PopUpManager.centerPopUp(popUpPage);

    This doesn't look like a problem with Acrobat forms.
