HT1977 how do i delete apps permanently from my icloud?

i want to know how to delete apps i no longer want from  my icloud. i have deleted them from my iphone but they are still in my icloud and i want them gone instead of taking up space i could use for other things.

If you are talking about wanting to delete your purchase history, that has never been an option.  You used to be able to hide them on your phone but that option did seem to be removed with iOS 6.  You can still hide them on your computer though (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919), and perhaps syncing after doing so will also hide them on your phone; not sure.

    Hi! how can I delete a book from the iCloud? I bought the wrong book ... is for adults and I have kids...so

    The most comprehensive delete method I know about is to delete the book from iTunes on the computer you sync your iPad with.  You'll be asked if you're sure, and it will be deleted from your iPad and any other i-Device you sync to.
    I think that's the best you can do.

  • How can I delete tv shows from the iCloud on my Apple TV?

    I recently purchased Apple TV (3rd gen) and need to delete a tv show that appears there.  There's no trash can icon on the screen as some posts state--just an iCloud icon.  How do I delete an item from the iCloud so it will no longer appear on the Apple TV?

    You can't hide it AFAIK on AppleTV - do it via iTunes.
    In iTunes elect the store home page, and choose Purchases in teh QuickLinks on the right.
    Choose TV Shows and hover over the one to hide and there should be a small x to hide it.
    If you need it back go into your actual account settings in iTunes and choose to unhide there.

  • How do I recover Apps Data from the iCloud on iPhone 4S with IOS 6.1?

    How do I recover Apps Data from the iCloud on iPhone 4S with IOS 6.1?

    You would have to restore to your entire iCloud backup, if you have one.  (The backup includes app data.)  Restoring to an iCloud backup has to be done in the initial setup process.  If you have any data on your phone now that is not in the backup that you want to save you'll need to do that first.  Then go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings.  You will then go through the setup screens as you did when the phone was new. When given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup.  Be sure you are connected to wifi and your charger as this will take some time to finish.

  • How do I delete files permanently from a usb flash key? On my mac (Yosemite 10.10) it's telling me the files are deleted, however on plugging key into television they're still there

    I've a problem I've never come across before and it's how to permanently delete files on a usb flash key? I've just migrated from using Windows for 15 years onto Apple iMac and had been deleting files easily and permanently from the key on Windows without any hassle and thought I'd done the same on my iMac but seemingly they're still there as the tele is showing them when key is plugged in, BUT they can not be seen on iMac. I wondered why the key wouldn't take anymore files after, what I thought was, deletion and now I know why-imac hasn't deleted them!
    I've actually gone into Disk Utility and formatted the key in it's usual FAT32 format to finally delete the files.  Anyone any ideas as to why this happens and how to solve this please?
    Many thanks

    In addition to what Drew wrote, remember the Mac has a data fork and a resource fork.
    Here is an old thread but a nice recap by Dr. Smoke
    ._Files
    Note that the ._file files you note are the resource forks of Mac files you copied to the drive from your Mac, and these are only visible when you use the Flash drive on a PC. These are normal and indicate the Flash drive is already formatted for Windows.
    When you copy or save a file from a Mac OS X system to a Windows shared volume or a Windows-formatted disk, the Mac creates two files: the data fork (xxx) and the resource fork (._xxx). This is called Apple Double Format and is normal. The resource fork contains additional data about the file that is exclusive to the Mac that cannot be saved otherwise on Windows-formatted disks. This is new with Mac OS X, as documented in Mac OS X: Apple Double Format Creates File Name With the Prefix '._'.
    The resource fork files (._xxx) are necessary if you want to copy the file back to the Mac and retain the metadata. The resource forks of files are invisible when they are used on the Mac: the Mac OS Extended file system (aka HFS Plus or HFS+) uses forked files, with a file having both data and resource forks.
    You can delete the resource forks on the Windows disk if and only if you don't care about losing the resource fork information should you copy them back to the Mac, such as comments, image preview icon, etc. Some Mac applications use the resource fork data, so deleting the resource fork can be problematic if you copy the file back to the Mac. Likewise moving the file while not also moving its associated resource fork when using the data on a PC can result in problems when using some files again on the Mac.
    You can't prevent the resource forks from being created if you copy or save files from the Mac to the Windows share or Windows-formatted disk via Finder.

  • How do I delete files permanently from the download queue?

    I have a bunch of TV shows and songs that are in my download queue because I accidentally clicked "download" twice.  Every time I want to download or import something else, all 47 of these items come up and attempt to start downloading.  Each time I delete them all from the queue, they come back to haunt me and begin downloading again the next time I want to download something.  Some of them have been trying to download since 2008.  How do I permanently prevent them from downloading to my computer?

  • How can I delete something permanently from my itunes library?

    Thank you gbeast. I have tried that several different ways. I think the problem is that I am trying to delete past purchases from the itunes store because they keep copying back to my phone during the re-sync. Do you possibly have a solution for this?
