I Don't Want Synced Apps

Is there a way, just like how u can not have your music synced to your ipod and you just drag the music to the ipod to add it, to have the apps do that? I'm asking because I am getting a new computer soon and I wouldn't be able to have any new apps if it would interfere with the previously downloaded apps on this computer.
If there is no way to just drag-and-add apps, then how can I get the old apps on my new computer or what do I do to be able to have my old and new apps?

Yes, you should Login to your new computer and click the "Check Purchases" button under the "Store" section. This should let you get all your apps to the new computer.
Hope this helps,
Darie.

I downloaded an app off the store which said it was free and part of the 5 year promotion. I've been charged for the app by the store. I don't want the app and there's no one to speak to about it. Who can I call and how can I get the app off my phone?

How do I get my money back from something I wouldn't have ordered?

You cannot call anyone. You contact them as everyone else does: http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
You delete the app as you do any other app. Hold an icon until they wiggle. Tap the "x". This is covered in the manual.

I don't want to apps stored on my PC.

App take up too much space on my PC. With iCloud, I no longer want or need to sync apps on my pc. But if I uncheck sync apps, it says my device apps will be wiped. Apple, why won't you let me do this. I thought your motto was, "it just works". Well, not for me.

I have 201 Apps on my PC (it doesn't matter which ones they are) and they occupy 2.47GB of disk space.
That doesn't really seem like a lot of space, are you really that desparate to reduce the amount of storage being used?
Of course, another way of looking at this is that Apple do allow you to do want you want, but for every action there is a conseqeunce. If you want the Apps on your iPod (which is a copy of the contents of your iTunes Library) then you have to store the originals somewhere.
You may think I'm not particularly sympathetic to your thoughts on this. You'd be right.

Don't Want Mail App as a Default app

If I am answering an email on yahoo or hotmail or gmail and I click a "mailto" link, Mail pops up as the default app as opposed to me being able to respond inside whatever I am presently using. How do I keep this from happenning? Thanks for the help to all who respond to this.

Ernie,
Thanks for your reply.
Well I am not trying to use any e-mail clients at this moment. All I am doing is using hotmail, or yahoo mail for e-mail. This little problem happens only when I click on an embedded link inside of an email that I recieved, that is prompting me to repond via email, i.e. "click here to email tech support". If I do this the Mail client in OS X comes popping up when all I wanted was the "compose email" section of yahoo or hotmail to actually come up so I can type the email. Does this help clarify my issue? Thanks again for your help.

Don't want ipad apps on iphone

How do I keep my ipad and iphone apps separate? When I add an app to my ipad it shows up on my phone as well.

Check Settings -> iTunes and App Store (in my language it is this choice, see if you find something similar) and uncheck the automatic download for Applications.

IPhone display will not rotate. DON'T WANT MUSIC APP SOLUTION; NO MUSIC!

IPHONE will not rotate to landscape. DON'T SAY USE MUSIC!

Later phones have a physical rotation lock switch. Your has a control on a screen that can be accessed by doing the following.
I hope it works. I am taking the internet to heart here.....
Double click menu key and move icons to left and it will expose the rotation lock icon. Just press.

I don't want the apps I download on my iPad to appear in my iPhone automatically. How can I do that?

All apps I download on my iPad automatically show up in my iPhone. Of course only the ones which are available for iPhone as well.
Which settings should I edit in order not to make this happen?

Use these instructions to disable automatic downloads.

I DON'T want to sync my apps, why do I have to?

I had large apps downloaded (TomTom GPS, etc) on my 3GS, and I never had them backed up. I got an iPhone 4 today, and for some reason, when I re-downloaded and did my first sync, it is making me sync them to my MacBook.
I don't want GB's upon GB's of apps on my computer, because they take up too much space that I don't need/want on my MacBook.
I've tried manually managing music/videos, un-clicking sync apps, EVERYTHING, and no matter what, my apps keep on re-syncing to my iPhone, and then getting deleted when I don't want to sync them, help me out or I'll probably end up selling this thing (which I don't want to do)!

Very few apps - very few are 500MB in size. Most apps are very small in size. If you have 4 apps on your iPhone now with each being 500MB in size, I'd like to know the apps. A GPS app will be much larger than the overwhelming majority of apps since maps are included with the app.
If you don't have Sync Apps selected under the Apps tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, an app downloaded with your iPhone should not be copied to your iTunes library the first time you sync your iPhone with iTunes after doing so.
If you don't have the apps available in your iTunes library, if you restore your iPhone with iTunes if wanted or needed, you will need to re-download every app on your iPhone again one by one and you will probably lose all 3rd party app settings and any data created and stored by a 3rd party app.

Friend's apps staying in my itunes and I don't want them

I plugged my friends iphone into my computer to help her backup, then update her phone. Now when I plug my phone in her apps are still on my computer and want to get on my phone when I sync. I tried to delete them from my "apps" section in iTunes, but I still feel as though my computer wants to send them onto my phone.
I have ensured that I'm logged into my itunes and app store, on both my Mac and my phone.
I'm not sure what to do so I can sync my phone and just have my apps on there. I don't want her apps on my comp at all because I don't want to deal with them!
Thanks for your help

If you don't use the Rating stars you can do the following: select all of the photos in the trash and Control-click to bringup the contextual menu. There will be the 5 stars for the ratings. Select either 5 or 1 to apply that rating to the photos.
Next create a smart album with the criteria:
selecting the number of start you applied to those in the Trash bin.
Move the photos from the Trash bin to the Library and the Smart Album will immediately be populated with those photos.
You can now export the photos you want via the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu option. when you're done you can delete the photos as you normally would. NOTE: if you have a large amount, well over 100, delete them in batches of 100.
NOTE: if you haven't edited the photos the version you get when you drag from the iPhoto window to the desktp is the same as the original file. But if it's been edited you'll get the modified version.

Can't stop iTunes syncing apps

I've moved from a 64GB iPad to a 16GB iPad and so only want to sync a subset of the old apps. I deselect the apps im itunes, apply the changes, but every time I sync the new iPad itreverts to the previous settings and reinstalls the same apps. There isn't space to completely install them but they fill the space I want for other apps

Right, the buttons are labeled with what you want to do. So, if it says "Will Remove" don't click on it. By doing that , you are basically toggling the switch from whatever it says to the next option. "Will Remove" will remove it from the iPad by preventing it from trying to sync with the iPad. So, you want to get the button to say "Will Remove" on all of the apps that you don't want syncing to your iPad.
If it says "Install" that means "click on this button if you want to install". If you don't want to install, then don't click on it.
So, here's what the buttons mean and do:
Install: means an app that is on your computer or in iCloud but which is not installed on the device you have hooked to the computer right now. If you don't want that app on the device, leave the button on "install".
Will Install: is telling you that this app is not on your device right now, but when you sync again, it will install it.
So, Install and Will Install are a toggle switch for apps that are not currently installed on your iPad. One is saying that it is available to "Install", and the other is saying that you have elected to install the app, and it "Will Install" it on the next sync.
Remove: means that an app is installed on your iPad, and you have the option to remove it by clicking the "Remove" button.
Will Remove: means that you have clicked on the Remove button because you want to remove that app from your iPad.
So, Remove and Will Remove are a toggle switch for apps that are currently installed on your iPad.
If the only options you have are "Install", "Will Install", and "Will Remove", then you want the button to say Install on any app that you don't want sync'd. Then sync the iPad. That should prevent any of those apps from attempting to install again.

HT4597 Can I just choose which apps or photos to sync via iCloud since I don't want all of them in all my devices? I have all photos & apps in my iMac but only sync manually some of them to my iPad and to my iPhone. Can I still do this with iCloud?

I have 3 Apple devices - iMac, iPhone, and iPad. I am planning to move to iCloud from MobileMe. In iTunes, I just choose to sync whatever files I want my iPhone and iPad to have since they don't have sufficient disk space as my iMac.
Can I just choose which apps or photos to sync via iCloud since I don't want all of them in my iPhone and iPad? I have all photos & apps in my iMac but only sync manually some of them to my iPad and to my iPhone. Can I still do this with iCloud?
Calendars, emails, contacts, are fine since files are small. What I'm afraid of are the apps and photos.
Any reply will be appreciated.
Thanks.

With the exception of photo stream, iCloud doesn't sync your apps or photos between devices. You will continue to sync this content via iTunes in the same way as you do now.
Photo stream allows you to sync your most recent photos between all devices, you have the option to use photostream or not.

Problem with apps sync (don't want to resinstall what is already installed

Hi, I got a problem: I organized my apps pages and folders directly on my Iphone 4G .
But now I want to sync apps from Itunes cause I updated apps from my PC since I don't have wifi and can't update apps which are more than 20MB on my Iphone.
The problem is that the only way I found to sync these updates is to check the "Sync the apps" but then I have to select all the apps I want again, to reorganize them again, and it says that the actual apps will be replaced by these ones so I am afraid to loose all my saves.
So is there a way to get the sync folder on Itunes to be organized in function of the way I organized things on my Iphone?
Actually if I don't check the "sync apps" checkbox (on top of left window) the apps appear the right way on the right window but as soon as I check the box then it seams that I have to do anything again...-_-
Help please...

No I can sync every apps, it's just that if I check the sync apps check box it's just like I didn't had any installed app before.
I tunes want to replace all the installed apps by the ones on my PC

I was trying to sync my iPhone 3GS and it is now stuck, saying I'm in recovery mode. I am thoroughly confused now after researching online. I'm scared to restore to original settings as I don't want to lose everything, apps, contacts, etc. Help!

I was trying to sync my iPhone 3GS and it is now stuck, saying I'm in recovery mode. I am thoroughly confused now after researching online. I'm scared to restore to original settings as I don't want to lose everything, apps, contacts, etc. Help! Is there a way to get it all back if I do restore?? Can I my stuff back through iCloud??

Bad news first and we hope for good news as well
The device is in Recovery Mode and the data has already been deleted, you need to restore the device with iTunes in order to get the iPhone back into a working state
When the iPhone is restored you can then restore it from your latest backup using iTunes or iCloud and regain some, if not all, of your data.
The good news part only happens if you had a backup.
