HT4673 Accidentially deleted an app and can't reinstall
MacBook Pro late 2011.
Accidentally DELETED the app TEMPERATURE GAUGE. Logged in to the App Store and tried following these directions: If you want to reinstall a deleted app, open Mac App Store, click the Purchases icon, then click on the "Install" button for the app.
INSTALLED is grayed out in my PURCHASES section. Will not allow any action. Went to the publishers website and the also recommend the above action. Nothing. Open for suggestions?

Has nothing to do with the upgrade. Some how I deleted the App Store download.
There IS NO CHARGE for the upgrade from the publisher. BUT, the original app, 4.1 is required for proof of purchase / upgrade in App Store purchases.
So in one way it does have something to do with the Upgrade process..
If you have a Time Machine back up... you could try to recover your accidental deletiion of the App.
How do I view or restore selected items?

Pages 4.1 is not cooperating. When I open a document the spinning rainbow computes and computes, but freezes and I have to force quit. I checked downloads, and ran iDisk Utility, but to no avail. What can I do?
JohnYou could tell us which system version you use. Pages 4.1 doesn't work on Tiger.

I was having trouble with freezing up in Draw Something 2... I was told to delete app and reinstall. So..I deleted the app and tried to reinstall but I cannot find the app anywhere!? I have looked and searched the App Store, went through purchases, my games, Cloud...etc..what should I do now? I have purchased a lot of inks and other things in Draw 2,,,will I be able to recover all?
I still find Draw Something 2 available:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/draw-something-2/id602881939?mt=8
though I haven't tried to download it. Are you sure you're logged into the iTunes Store account through which you purchased the app, and you're following these instructions?

I have bought an iMAC second hand but when updates to purchased (not by me) Apps I cannot download the updates as it is asking for the original owners password. How can I amend this or could I delete the Apps and download new ones in place under my email
If the machine was upgraded to Lion 10.7.x by the original owner then you bought an illegal license of Lion and also of any other applications that the seller said came pre-installed, this assumes the seller did not include original install media. In that case you need to contact the seller for the original install DVDs that came with the machine re-install up to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and then purchase Mountain Lion ($20) and the applications you want or need. If the seller cannot come up with the original install discs then you can buy them from a nominal cost from AppleCare..

I have iBooks 2.1 on ipad. I changed my password and can no longer update the app. If I delete the app and install the updated version, will I lose the books I have purchased?
Try logging out of your account on the iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores and then log back in and see if you can then update the app.
If you do delete the app then you should be able to re-download your ibook purchases via the Purchased tab in the ibookstore in the app. But in case some of them are no longer available in the store and/or you have PDFs or epubs in it, then you could first connect it to your computer's iTunes and do File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases on iTunes 11) which should copy them over to the Books part of your iTunes library so that you have your own copy of them and can sync them back (even though they aren't iTunes purchases it should also copy over any PDFs or epubs that you have in the iBooks app) -
Hi all. I upgraded to 7.1.2 on my IPad yesterday. I cannot now get these apps: facebook, iPhoto's, iBooks and some others. I can't update the Economist or Bloomberg apps. I cannot delete the apps and reinstall. I did a reset. Any ideas?
Are there any parental controls on the iPad or iTunes?

Deleted an app and now can't get out of settings
help please anyone!! deleted an app and now can't get out of settings....any advice please...
Not sure if you mean the app settings within the app, or the actual settings app. It doesn't really matter anyway .... Close the app or apps and reboot your iPad.
Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up. -
I don't have space on my iPhone and iPad anymore.. So I bought 10GB on iCloud and backup both devices. So what I wanna know is can I delete my apps and pics in order to get more space on my devices?
You can delete apps (which will also delete their content), but they will only be redownloadable whilst they remain in your country's store - none of your iTunes downloads (apps, music, ibooks etc) use any of your iCloud storage, iCloud is for your backups (e.g. app's content, camera roll photos, messages, homescreen layout).
To delete an app, 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. If you don't get the 'x' on any of the apps that you've downloaded (you can't delete built-in apps) then check that Settings > General > Restrictions > Deleting Apps isn't set 'off'
You can delete photos from your iPad, but if you want them back then you should copy them to your computer first.
Copying photos to a computer : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
You can also copy your downloads (apps, music, films etc) to your computer's iTunes by connecting your iPad and/or iPhone to it and doing File > Devices > Transfer Purchases. -
When trying to update an app, it partially downloads and then displays the message "unable to download item" Please try again later. This happens on any app I try. I have tried deleting the app and reinstalling with same results. What can I do?
I have the same thing happening on my iPod Touch 5th gen. Been happening for at least a month. I have updated to the most recent version of iOS which hasn't solved the issue. Must be a bug that they didn't get around to resolving yet, a year later. Really annoying to have it pop up when you are in the middle of a game though.

I Cannot receive email on my iPad. I have deleted the app and re added it. What else can I do?
Which app was that? Like Jim states, the built-in Mail app cannot be deleted, but if you have installed alternate means, such as the Gmail app, those are not deletion-protected.
If you can successfully log in via a web interface to your mail account (thereby confirming that login credentials are valid and working), have you tried setting up the equivalent mailbox in the default Mail app? I currently have 9 different mail accounts/mailboxes accessible via the Mail app on both the iPad 4 and the iPhone 5 (3 are Microsoft Office365, 5 are Google corporate and the last is my ages-old Apple account), all in perfect sync. -
I downloaded nds4ios for my ipod touch and now it's acting screwy. I deleted the app and reset my ipod but I still can't access either Itunes stores, send messages, or access the internet. What should I do?
Hi Seabiscuit564,
It sounds as if your issues here are all related to not having a good connection to the Internet from your iPod touch. I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

First of all I cannot update my device because I do not have enough memory to update my device. So I started deleting my apps and to no avail could I get enough memory. So I am wondering if it is worth the update if I have to loose everything on my phone ! Secondly one of the apps I deleted is the facebook app and now I tried to put it back on and it will not work! So now I have deleted stuff and can't get it back and still cannot do update!
It requries 3 gb to update over the air.
If you connect to iTunes you can backup the phone, then update the phone through iTunes instead, where it doesnt require 3 gb free on the phone. -
I turn off my whats app lasseen time stamp more than 24 hours ago and now i can't turn it on it sees " could not connect to whats app services please try again latter" i try deleting the app and changing the calendar and still didnt worrk
Ok - an update ...
Managed to get the phone to backup to iCloud, so decided to risk the "Factory" reset.
Took the reset option including delete all data and crossed fingers.
It took a while to resotre from iCloud, but everthing seems to be back and ...
Bluetooth now working agaim.
Backup to Computer working again.
And somewhat to my surprise, GMail in the mail app is working again. (The surprise being that the implication of other posts was that this was a 6.1.3 fundamental bug)
Still no idea why the iPhone was corrupted - but at least the "Factory" reset seems to have recovered the situation. -
i just purchased more storage and deleted some apps and my iphone4 and it still will not allow me to update to ios7
The iCloud storage is meant for your backup, you do not get more space on iPhone.
You can by connecting to computer iTunes for update then you will not have space problem
