I am having trouble deleting apps from iOS 6.01

I have downloaded a few apps only to decide they're rubbish and want to delete them. This problem occurs on both my iPad3 as well as my iPhone 4S.
When I tap and hold the app to get it to jiggle, I then tap the 'x' to delete and iOS locks up. It won't delete the app, and I cannot go hold the home button to stop the process. The only way I can resume using my iPhone or iPad is to reset holding the home and sleep buttons.
I had this problem when trying to download Keynote, Pages, and Numbers the other day, and the only way I could delete these 3 apps to get them re-installed was to plug the devices into my MacBook and delete apps on iTunes and sync them.
It seems since 6.01 iOS update I've had issues with some apps not loading and not being able to delete apps.
Anyone else had issues too?

Yeah, I know all about the un deleatable apps. The apps I'm talking about are 3rd party apps, say for public transport in Melbourne Australia, or my earlier in the week drama Keynote, Numbers, and Pages- a problem still not resolved despite emailing Apple the crash reports.
I'm not a massive app downloader, I have less than 100. However, this problem is applicable to deleting any 3rd party app, despite restoring iOS6.
While I am not expecting to receive a solution my original post was more about anyone else having a similar problem with iOS6.0.1 since I'm not convinced it's unique to my iPhone since the same issue occurs with my iPad.
The next option is the bin. I'm done with Apple.

  • HT4673 Having trouble deleting apps from Launchpad...

    I just upgraded to Mountain Lion, and Launchpad was working fine, but then as I was editing my apps within launchpad, suddently the option to delete apps or edit folders withing Launchpad went away. The little "x's" just dissappeared.
    I'm still logged in as an admin and everything, I rebooted to no effect.
    Any suggestions?

    I have to press and hold "Option" or click and hold on any app.

  • I am having trouble deleting photos from iPad that we're imported from PC  how do I do this to free space on ipad

    I am having trouble deleting photos from iPad that we're ported from PC. Already deleted from PC but still showing up on iPad following sync

    Tap and hold your finger on the X
    You should get a message in some cases that it will delete your stored app data - say OK if you want to proceed
    The wiggle mode should stop with a press of the home button - not a hard reset
    Reset your phone and see if the behavior changes - there is no data loss - Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

  • HT204053 my icloud id is not registered and having trouble deleting it from my ipad to replace with my original id. how can i delete my icloud if the system doesnt reconize it.

    trouble deleting icloud account from IPad. The ID is not reconized and trouble resetting it.

    Try going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • Anyone else having trouble deleting artists from Music in iOS6?

    The 'slide to delete' function is seemingly buggy in the updated Music app from iOS6, some artists with longer names are harder to delete, others randomly don't respond. Anyone else?

    Same here in SC. Also a Road Runner customer. Been working fine until Friday, the 20th. I was getting the broken links and really slow, but today (22nd) I can't even access it. I'm getting the network connection errors also. If I manually check for updates it comes back immediately that I'm running the current version, so I know the application can access the net. Then tried the store again and got the slow broken links home page again.

  • Having Trouble Moving Apps From One Page to Another

    I can easily move apps around on the same page. But I can't seem to move an app from one page to another. They stop at the side of the screen and won't move to the next page. Is there a secret to this or does it take fancy dexterity?

    It takes a little dexterity but if you have 9 pAges of apps then it takes pure magic to move any to the
    Tenth page. I still haven't been able to do it. I've discovered how to delete those pesky defAult apps though. You put them on the ninth page then drag another app onto page nine and push the other one right off. Disappears forever

  • Having trouble deleting photos from my ipad2

    photos which have been imported onto my iPad I would now like to remove, but am unable to do so. I have connected the iPad to the iMac and am in iTunes, but now what?

    RB, I also have this problem on an iPad 2.
    Opened the Photo tab in iTunes, made sure none of the  photo options  were checked, clicked  Sync and Apply, and at the top "steps 1 and 2" appeared, but then that progress bar disappears every time.
    THen downloaded the Wondershare app, and that didn't work either.
    Is there no other way to delete all my photos? 

  • Delete app from ios 7

    Help! I downloaded the new ios7 and I can't delete any apps now.

    Attempt to delete the app as indicated above: hold down one app icon, icons will start to wiggle, X's appear in the upper-corner of some apps. click the X of the app you want to delete, select 'Delete' in the message that appears.
    It will look like nothing has happened. Now go to App Store and try to redownload the same app. There it may say 'Open' Instead of 'Install', select what ever is there. A fresh copy of the app will be loaded again on you iphone and the icon will become clear (not black or dark). Now repeat the first steps to delete an app (i.e. make the x's show, click the x of the app you want to delete) it will be deleted/removed completely).
    This worked on my iphone, hope it will work with you too.

    hiya!
    hmmmm. some other connection issues have been known to cause the -69, although under those circumstances people more typically get the "disk cannot be read from or written to" error message.
    working on that theory, let's see if anything in this document helps:

  • Trouble transferring apps from my ipad to itunes.

    I'm having trouble transferring apps from my ipad to itunes. My computer is authorized, but I get - Some of the purchased items on the (user name) ipad could not be transfered to your itunes library because you are not authorized for them on this computer.

    If those apps were purchased with a different Apple ID and iTunes account that would be a reason why you get that message.

  • Deleting apps from the cloud

    I am having problems deleting apps from the iCloud so I can reinstall a fresh version.

    What do you mean? You can't delete apps from iCloud. What exactly are you trying to do? I assume that you want to delete an app and all of the data and for some reason the data is coming back when you reinstall the app?
