HT1977 how do I permanently erase purchased app from my itunes account?
how do I permanently erase purchased app from my itunes account? It bothers me a lot when I try to syn my device to a new computer and all the apps i've ever purchased get downloaded to a new computer even the ones I never use anymore.
Sorry, but you can't permanently delete an app. You can hide them:

but the app will still sync to your computer if the app is present on the iPad. If the apps are downloading directly to your computer and hiding doesn't do the job, you'll need to turn off automatic downloading.
Regards.

TS1702 How do you permanently delete purchased apps from itunes?
How do I permanently delete purchased apps from itunes on my iphone?
I have spent a good part of my evening trying to figure this out then finally found this page which confirms what I was thinking... It doesn't appear possible! ARHHHH!!! There are loads of posts saying how you can do this, when what they appear to be describing is how to remove the apps from their iphone/ipad and not actually from the list of every app you have ever installed which appears when you go into the "Apps Store" > Updates > Not on this iPhone.
It would be really nice to be able to remove programs from this list as I am sure I am not the only person who over the years have installed some apps which where not very good and I don't want to be reminded of them or to ever see them again quite frankly.
I can do this very easily from my Android phone in Google Play which is Google's version of the App Store.
I think things like this remind me why I prefer the ease of use of my Android phone... Ho hum! Maybe one day some geeks at Apple will realise that this would actually be a really useful thing to be able to do and enable it. -

You can't. The apps must be purchased separately.

How do I permanently delte purchased songs from my iTunes library without Match?
How do I permanently delte purchased songs from my iTunes library without Match? iTunes is automatically syncing songs I purchased years ago to my iPhone without me asking it to. I have not and am not going to pay for Match. I want to get of of these songs for good. I do not care about removing them from my history which is impossible, I just want to delete songs so they are not in my library and do not sync to my phone since I never wanted them there.
Hey Dodge50,
Great question! You can choose to sync your entire library, or selected playlists and other items. For more information, check out this resource:
Sync your iPhone, iPad and iPod with iTunes using USB - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT1386
You can also opt to manually manage the content that is on your device. For more information about this option, see the following:

Thanks,

Transfer purchased apps from one iTUNES account to another
I have purchased a few apps on an iTunes account, have set up a new account and bought apps on that. Can i transfer apps from one iTunes to another?
The Solution is that you will need to keep account A active for as long as you have those Apps...
Or you can Get Them Again using account B... But if they are Purchased Apps you will have to pay again...
Free Apps are of course Free... -

Is there a way to PERMANENTLY DELETE purchased songs from your iTunes/iTunes account
Hi
I have 11 purchased songs in my iTunes library. Since iOS7 i have not been able to remove these songs from my 3rd party music player.
I would like to permanently remove these songs from my iTunes account, my iTunes, my iPhone. I don't want to see these songs appear on any of my devices ever again.
Is there a way to remove these purchases permanently so they are no longer available/associated with my account?
Please! Any help is appreciated, this is seriously annoying.Turning off iCloud will not accomplish anything, unless you simply wish to sign out your AppleID for itunes adn app store. Then of course, you would not be able to purchase apps or other content.
Any itunes or App store purchases can be set to hidden, as ckuan instructs. These would not show up on your device. But no, there is not way to completely delete content purchases.
You can offer Apple feedback here, if you wish: http://www.apple.com/feedback/ -
New user on iphone -- how do I sync apps from my itunes account?
My husband bought and used an iphone 3g, and bought five free apps. Then he gave the iphone to me. I have my own itunes account on my own computer, and have purchased free apps on my computer, but the apps don't sync to my iphone. (My music library from CDs and my address book do sync from my itunes account on my computer to my iphone). Any solution short of "restore"? I want to purchase apps on my itunes account on my computer and use them on my iphone.
The apps I purchase on my itunes account on my computer do not sync with (transfer to) my iphone. Here are some free apps I have purchased: NYTimes, weathebug, nearby, ypmobile, movies, free hangman. None of them sync.
When I sync by iphone with my itunes account on my computer, I get a dialog box telling me that there are apps on my phone that are not in my itunes account on my computer (my husband's five free apps). The box asks me to choose to "transfer", or "don't transfer", these apps. If I choose "don't transfer", I am warned that I will lose those apps. I have tried both methods "don't transfer" and "transfer" -- in both cases my new apps from my itunes account on my computer do not sync. In both cases my husband's apps on the iphone remain.
My itunes account on my computer indicates that I have successfully purchased and downloaded the apps.
I believe this problem is caused because an iphone can only sync apps from one itunes account. If true, than I need to know how to unconnect my iphone from my husband's itunes account.
I would appreciate any help. -

I purchased apps with one Itunes account (hotmail). I then changed my account sign-in to a different email sign-in (ME) because of iCloud. Can I easily convert the apps to an Itunes (ME) account when an update for each app occurrs?
Did you change your existing iTunes account or did you create a new account ? If you updated the existing account then you should be ok. But if you created a new account, then as apps are tied to the account that originally bought/downloaded them and they can't be copied or transferred to a different account, only that original account will be able to download any future updates to them or re-download them on a different device.

HT1420 how do i move a purchased song from one apple account to another
how do i move a purchased song from one apple account to another
The short answer is that you can't. Purchases are tied to the AppleID used to buy them. AppleID's cannot be merged, and the content cannot be transferred.
