How do I delete apps that I do not want on my device anymore?

DELETING APPS
Touch the app and hold your finger down until all the apps start to jiggle. You will see a circled "x" in the upper left corner. Tap it to delete an app. When done press the Home button.
You cannot delete any pre-installed iOS app.
If there is No 'X' on any apps you have Downloaded... then check in Restrictions... Settings > General > Restrictions > Deleting Apps  =  Off / On
If the app is in iTunes, then you delete the app in iTunes (Select the App and Press Delete on your Keyboard). If you then sync with your iDevice, the app will also be deleted from your iDevice.

  • HT5824 how do i go onto my icloud account to delete apps that i do not want on it

    I have an Ipad that i have deleted apps on but they were saved on my icloud account. I want to know how i get onto my icloud account to delete them off of that and how to do it. thanks

    Welcome to the Apple community taylorpaula.
    The apps are not actually in your iCloud storage, they are links to the apps in the App Store. What you are seeing is your purchase history and as such cannot be deleted.
    You can however hide your purchases, which you can do from the QuickLinks > Purchased option from the main page in the iTunes Store on your computer.

  • How do you delete apps that you no longer want on your ipad COMPLETELY?

    My memory on my ipad is low.. and when you take a look at the apps in the store from recent ones i tried out.. they are still there.. how do you get rid of them ?
    i literally have 4 apps on my ipad. with only 5 songs 30 pictures ... why is the memory so bogged down?? ive seen many peoples devices and they have way more stuff than i do.. someone helppp??

    You cannot delete/remove apps from your App Store purchases. They will remain there forever but they are not necessarly still on the device. You can hide your past purchases but need to do so using iTunes.
    See: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4919
    As was mentioned, just because they are showing in your purchases, it does not mean that they are on the device. If you have deleted them from the device and are no longer on the device, they are not using any of your device's storage. You'l' have to look elsewhere to see what is taking up the space you are missing.
    Check Settings>General>Usage, then tap on Show all Apps to get an idea of what is physically on the device (Apps, Music, Photos, Videos, etc.)

    How do I delete apps that are duds?

    Thanks JimHDK. I forgot to mention these duds are in my history of apps. The duds take up a lot of the listings and i'd like to no longer see them (for re-open or use).  I do understand and use the feature you mentioned.

  • How do I specify cookies that I do not want deleted while in Private Browsing?

    I would like to use Private Browsing all the time, but want to retain certain cookies, like my sign in info for hotmail.com and certain banking log in info. How do I specify cookies that I do not want deleted?

    You can protect specific cookies with the CookieCuller extension.
    The cookies are only protected within that extension, so other means (Clear Recent History) will still remove them.
    You can let all cookies expire if you close Firefox and keep the protected cookies.
    If you use the build-in cookie manager then you can only make an allow exception for a specific domain, but with CookieCuller you can protect specific cookies.

  • TS1702 When trying to delete apps that I don't want, I get them to shake but no 'x' appears; what do I do?

    When trying to delete apps that I don't want, I get them to shake but no 'x' appears; what do I do?

    These apps you wish to delete aren't ones that came included with the iPad, are they? Those cannot be deleted. If these are apps you installed, try restarting your iPad:

    and see if it will then let you delete those apps.

  • After purchasing the 9.99 plan and you decide that you do not want to use it anymore, do you use loose your photos?  Are you able to save them your hard drive and such?

    after purchasing the 9.99 plan and you decide that you do not want to use it anymore, do you use loose your photos?  Are you able to save them your hard drive and such?

    But all the adjustments that you apply in Lightroom, if you do not export to a rasterized format, will be inaccessible.  You'll still have your catalog file, for if you want to re-inlist in the future, but it won't do anything for you without Lightroom.  The same thing will go for Photoshop files like PSD, but obviously if you save to standard image formats you'll be fine.
    It's one of the issues that keeps me away from the plan.  Not being able to edit individual files in PS is one thing, but Lightroom is a photo organization system.  I don't want to rent the system I use to organize 10s of thousands of files.

  • How do I delete apps that don't have an X?

    I read where someone else asked how to delete apps and they were told to hold the app til it wiggled then click an X that would appear in the app corner.  Well.....there is no X in the corner of the app I want to delete (stocks).  I have no use for this app and hate the extra clutter.  Thanks for any help.

    If it is an app that is part of the Apple iOS install, you won't be able to remove it.
    If it is a 3rd party app it should have an X when tapped and held.
    Note you can also remove apps using the Apps tab in iTunes when the device is connected to your computer.

  • How do I uninstall apps that I no longer want

    Can someone advise me on how to uninstall some of the apps I no longer need. Please

    Press and hold 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 ones that you don't want, and when you've finished deleting press the home button so as to stop the shaking. You cannot delete any of the Apple built-in apps e.g. Music, App Store, Game Centre etc. If you don't get the 'x' on any of the apps that you've downloaded then check that Settings > General > Restrictions > Deleting Apps isn't set 'off'

    You can't permanently delete any items from your purchase history, all you can do is hide them so that they don't show in the Purchased links for redownloading : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919 - with iOS 7, after hiding apps on my computer's iTunes I've been needing to log out of my account on my iPad and then log back for them to be hidden from the Purchased tab in the App Store app.
    If you need to permanently delete data from iPhone, My recommendation is iPhone Data Eraser, which can erase all data including contacts, messages, call history, apps, system setting, photo, video, keyboard cache, safari bookmark. Indeed, iPhone Data Eraser worth trusting and it makes the work more effective. What you need is a windows computer. One single click and data deletion finish. In addition, the program also works well with iPad and iPod Touch.
